When I was fifteen, the stonecutter's daughter had grown into a very beautiful girl. She has a big braid that hangs down to her hips, and her two furry eyes look charming.

I was fascinated by her and would often buy her sweets with a little of my hard-earned money.

Her vegetable garden is next to mine. In the evening everyone went to the river to fetch water to water vegetables.

When I saw her floating on the river bank with a bucket and big braids on her back, I had mixed emotions. I think she is the most beautiful person on earth. I followed her, stepping on her footprints on the beach with my bare feet, as if electricity flowed from the soles of my feet to the top of my head, and my heart was filled with happiness.

I mustered up the courage at dusk to tell her that I loved her and hoped I could marry her.

She was startled, then smiled. She said: "You are like a toad who wants to eat swan meat!"

I felt that my self-esteem was severely damaged, but I did not change my infatuation, and even asked a sister-in-law to go to her house to propose marriage.

She asked her sister-in-law to send me a message, saying that as long as I could write a book like " The Romance of the Gods ", she would marry me.

I went to her house to find her, wanting to show her my sincerity.

She didn’t come out to see me, but her big ferocious dog rushed out like a tiger.

When I gave a speech at Stanford University a few days ago, I once said that I work hard to write because I want to live a happy life like "eating three dumplings a day." In fact, in addition to dumplings, the inspiration for my writing is also the sleepy girl in the stonemason's house.

I have not been able to write a book like "The Romance of the Gods" so far. The mason's daughter has become the mother of three children.
