Cornelia asked curiously, “Can novelty be created too?”
“Absolutely! The old granny replied while looking at Marcus, “Boy, your wife is so beautiful, I bet many men are into her. You should cherish her and know how to create romance for her. Otherwise, if she’s taken away by someone else, you’ll just be left crying”
“I’m his wife, I won’t be taken away by anyone else.” Cornelia responded.
The old granny lightly tapped Cornelia’s forehead with a hint of disappointment, “It’s good that you know all this, but don’t let him know, or else he won’t cherish you as much.”
“He’s not like that.” Cornelia replied.
The old granny went silent for a while. She found Cornelia a bit stubborn and turned her gaze back to Marcus, “Boy, you heard that, right? Your wife is so good to you, so trusting, you should be worthy of her trust. Don’t think that just because you’ve married such a beautiful woman, she can’t leave you and take everything for granted.
“And you, young lady, shouldn’t be too concerned about your husband spending money. Even for something as small as buying flowers, you’re trying to save for him. You don’t want him to spend his money on other women in the future, do you? You’re so beautiful, he hit the jackpot by marrying you. You don’t need to save money for him.”
It was the afternoon, and the flowers in the old granny’s cart weren’t as fresh anymore. But because her words made sense, Marcus picked a relatively fresh bouquet of roses and handed them to Cornelia, “I’ll remember your words.”
The old granny laughed heartily, “Boy, you know how to love your wife. Your wife is so good, and she deserves your best. You should spend your life with her. I’m always selling flowers around here. Please continue to support my business.”
“Sure.” Marcus replied.
“Goodbye!” Cornelia said.
Just as Cornelia and Marcus left and turned a corner, they were stopped by an old man with gray hair.
“Do you need something?” Cornelia asked.
“First of all, I want to thank you for buying flowers from my wife! You can keep the flowers, and I can give you back the money you paid for them.” He said. “We paid for the flowers. You don’t need to refund us.” Cornelia replied.
“I want to give you back the money, hoping that you will support my wife’s business more in the future. I’m not asking you to spend money. You can keep the flowers, and I’ll refund you the money. The old man explained.
“Why are you doing this? Are you and your wife playing some kind of interesting game?” Cornelia asked curiously.
The old man sighed, “Our children passed away early, and it’s just the two of us left. We have enough pension for our retirement, but my wife insists on selling flowers. At first, I thought she wanted to earn some money, but then I realized that she enjoys talking to young people and giving them life advice. I’m very grateful that you two listened to her for so long.”
“She’s very likable.” Cornelia said.
“Yes, she’s always been very likable, whether when she was young or now at this age.” The old man replied.
Despite being in their seventies, his eyes still radiated with love when he talked about her.
At that moment, Cornelia suddenly believed in the existence of true love in this world.
“You don’t need to give me the money back. We just moved here and will probably stay for a long time. I’ll support her business when I have time.” Cornelia said.
“Thank you! You two are really nice people!” The old man replied.
Cornelia smiled and said, “Goodbye!”
“Goodbye!” The old man replied.
Back in their neighborhood, Cornelia looked up at Marcus, opened her mouth to say something, but didn’t.
Marcus chuckled, “Are you envious of their relationship?”
Cornelia nodded, “Yes 1 am. Can we be like them, still together even when we’re old?”
Marcus stopped looked into Cornelia’s eyes, and said, “Of course!”
