After the meal, Lin Feng took Meng Qing's hand mysteriously and said, "I'll take you to see the back."
Walking through the side door of the main house and pushing open a small fence door, the scene in front of Meng Qing made her hold her breath instantly!
Behind the small courtyard, there is actually a larger secret garden!
There are no neat fences or deliberately trimmed shapes; this place is more like a wild place where nature grows freely.
Large patches of pink muhly grass sway in the autumn wind, like spreading pink clouds, gentle and dreamy;
Although the golden sunflowers have passed their prime, there are still a few plants standing stubbornly, with their large flower disks drooping, bidding farewell to the setting sun;
Various colors of cosmos, geraniums, sage...
The stars are twinkling, emitting a faint fragrance in the twilight.
As the evening breeze blows, the sea of flowers rises and falls like waves, rustling.
In the center of the sea of flowers, under two tall sycamore trees with intertwined branches and leaves, a large white hammock was quietly hanging.
The hammock's support is made of solid logs, and the hammock itself is made of thick, soft canvas, with both ends fixed to sturdy branches. It is not high from the ground, just enough for you to lie down comfortably.
"Come." Lin Feng held Meng Qing's hand and walked carefully through the path among the flowers towards the hammock in the middle of the sea of flowers.
The two of them lay down side by side in the hammock.
The canvas sank slightly, supporting the weight of the body, soft and stable.
The body rises and falls with the slight sway of the hammock, as if floating on a sea of flowers.
Dusk fell and the last ray of sunset glow sank into the distant mountains.
The deep, velvety night slowly fell.
Countless stars lit up like diamonds scattered by someone, becoming clearer and brighter.
The Milky Way is like a hazy band of light, stretching across the boundless night sky.
It was extremely quiet all around, with only the soft chirping of autumn insects deep in the flowers and the audible breathing of each other.
The evening breeze, carrying the cool scent of flowers and fresh air of grass and trees, gently blows across my cheeks.
Meng Qing snuggled in Lin Feng's arms, looking up at the vast starry sky above her head.
The neon lights of the city are far away, and the starry sky here is pure, deep, and low, as if it is within reach.
Every star is as clear as if it had just been polished.
"So beautiful..." she murmured softly, afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the starry sky.
Lin Feng put his arms around her shoulders, making her feel more comfortable.
His voice was low and gentle, with a sigh of satisfaction: "Well, it's more beautiful than what we saw in the desert."
Because here is their land, their flowers, and their home.
The two stopped talking, just lay there quietly, looking at the starry sky.
The hammock sways gently in the breeze, just like a cradle in childhood.
Time has lost its meaning. Only the stars are moving silently, and only the body temperature of the people around me is so real and warm.
Meng Qing stretched out her hand and pointed to an exceptionally bright star in the sky: "Look at that one, it's so bright."
Lin Feng looked along her finger and chuckled, "Does it look like the diamond on your ring finger?"
Meng Qing hit him lightly in an angry manner, but a sweet smile appeared on her face.
Raise the hand wearing the ring to your eyes, the tiny diamond reflects tiny rays of light under the starlight, shining in harmony with the stars in the sky.
Lin Feng held her hand, clasped their fingers together, and placed them on his chest.
"Do you like it here?" he asked, his voice so soft as if he was afraid to scare away the falling stars.
"like."
Meng Qing buried her face in the crook of his neck and rubbed it, like a satisfied cat:
"I like the courtyard, the swing, the skylight, the terrace, the sea of flowers, the hammock... I like you the most, and everything you have prepared for me."
Lin Feng lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on the top of her head.
His gaze once again turned to the vast starry sky, and his heart felt unprecedented peace and fulfillment.
All the wandering, all the wind and rain, all the thrills, are for the purpose of finally anchoring in this harbor that belongs to them.
Anchored on this land where she is, the starry sky and the fragrance of flowers.
The sea of flowers undulates in the night, and the subtle fragrance floats in the air. The two people snuggle in the hammock, like two vines entwined with each other, breathing quietly under the starry sky.
Above your head is the eternal Milky Way, beneath you is the fragrant land, and by your side is the love of your life.
The fireworks and stars in this country courtyard are the most stable and romantic footnotes to the rest of their lives.
The lights of Fengqing Cottage were shining warmly not far behind him, like a lighthouse that never goes out, illuminating the way home.
The two settled down in the countryside.
Whenever Shen Yunche or Zhu Qin passed by, they would come over to take a look.
Every time he came, Shen Yunche didn't want to leave.
Because this courtyard is so cozy.
"I don't want to leave anymore." Shen Yunche leaned back in his chair, enjoying the breeze and said lazily.
"Hahahaha." Meng Qing laughed beside her.
Lin Feng was packing his things and said, "Get lost."
"Lin Feng, what's your attitude?" Shen Yunche suddenly stood up from his chair, came to Lin Feng and said, "Please, let me stay for a day, please."
Lin Feng said disdainfully: "Don't bother me while I'm killing fish."
Seeing this, Shen Yunche turned his head and looked at Meng Qing and said, "Sister-in-law, please, please."
Meng Qing smiled at Shen Yunche and said, "It's not that I don't want to help you. You can see that my husband doesn't want this."
"You two are worthy of being a couple. Well done." Shen Yunche gave a thumbs up.
......
"Ah, I don't want to leave anymore." Zhu Qin leaned on the swing and spoke to Meng Qing while swinging.
Meng Qing smiled and said, "You and Shen Yunche said the same thing."
"Is this true?" Zhu Qin asked in disbelief.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Meng Qing said with a smile.
"What else did he say?" Zhu Qin asked.
"He also said that he didn't want to leave, and then I decisively refused." Lin Feng said with a smile on his face while standing aside.
Zhu Qin heard this, and the corners of his mouth twitched, thinking to himself: "Did this guy say this on purpose for me to hear?"
......
At night, the moonlight sprinkles in the room like water, and the soft light shines through the gaps in the curtains, outlining faint shadows on the floor.
Lin Feng and Meng Qing sat on the edge of the bed, facing each other, their eyes meeting.
Lin Feng's voice was low and gentle, brushing past Meng Qing's ears: "Have you decided?"
His eyes were full of concern and love.
Meng Qing's cheeks flushed slightly, like a ripe apple. She nodded shyly and said softly, "Yes, I have decided, husband."
Lin Feng looked at Meng Qing with a smile, the tenderness in his eyes becoming deeper.
"Okay, then we should..." Before Lin Feng finished his words, he stretched out his arms and hugged Meng Qing tightly in his arms.
Meng Qing's body trembled slightly, but then relaxed. She felt Lin Feng's warmth and strength, as if there were only the two of them left in the world.
In fact, although Lin Feng had never forced himself to have a child, Meng Qing knew it in her heart.
For Meng Qing, this was not only to fulfill Lin Feng's wish, but also her way of giving Lin Feng a real home.
She knew that Lin Feng had almost nothing else to cling to in this world except her.
He gave her all his love, and she hoped to do something for him to make his life more complete.
This child is the most precious gift she can give to Lin Feng.
At this moment, Meng Qing felt Lin Feng's unreserved love for her, an emotion so deep that it could not be expressed in words.
She knew that no matter how many difficulties and challenges they would encounter in the future, they would face them together and protect this small family that belonged to them.
