The famous translator Mr. Han Wenyan passed away due to illness at 10 am on April 9 this year.
He was 65 years old.
His wife, Ms. Yao Mingwen, was not sad and wrote an elegiac couplet to her husband in her own handwriting.
"The bright moon, clear breeze, nostalgic for the universe, the ruined mountains and remaining water, read the poems left behind"
"It's still a dream to say goodbye for a while, why will we meet again in the future?"
Yao Mingwen sat alone in the mourning hall for a long time, smiling at her husband's portrait, "Old Han, I won't cry for you. This half of my life, you and I are enough."
In 2022, Ms. Yao Mingwen began writing her memoirs.
"Every word is so heartbreaking that I almost couldn't write it down."
"But Lao Han is gone, and I want to leave something for us."
"I'm not sad. Old Han told me again and again not to cry. Life and death are reincarnations. One day we will meet again."
"The years have become slower and longer after he left. Just in time, I will see more of the world for him."
This memoir was published when Ms. Yao was 75 years old, and was titled "Half Life of You and Me"
Ms. Yao Mingwen lived a long life and died in her sleep at the age of 90.
The sleeping face is peaceful and the expression is peaceful.
A long time ago, I fell asleep like this after reading a book.
When I woke up, I had an extra blanket on me.
He sat in the rocking chair and flipped through the Oxford dictionary. He raised his eyes and looked at her with a smile, "Why are you sleeping so deeply? I couldn't wake you up, so I had to cover you with a blanket."
She replied, "I had a good dream and I don't want to wake up."
He was curious, "What dream makes you so attached to it?"
"I dreamed that I was still eighteen years old. I saw you for the first time in Xiangshan Villa and you asked me to dance."
"Decades have passed in a flash, and I can no longer dance."
Han Wenyan looked at his wife, "But you are still the most beautiful in my eyes."
Half a lifetime has passed, and you and I are apart.
Thinking about it hurts the old scenery of spring.
He is calm again and can't bear to feel sad.
Let's look for it in the next life.
Inspiration comes from the song "Half Life of You and Me"
"Please believe that there will always be love and hope"
