我30岁那年，独自站在小镇的十字路口，暗暗发誓，今年的任务，一定要找个媳妇，把婚结了！那年，我是孤儿，刚从美院毕业，一穷二白。

我的妻子是媒人介绍的，我的媒人是我学校的书记，是个女的。叫青梅。她有个儿子竟然和我同名，但常年不在身边，认识我以后，我经常去给她擀面条，做一些家务，慢慢的她就给我介绍起了对象。

第一次见女朋友，我去了他的家里，我见到她的第一面，就说，这个月发了工资，我就有300元了除此之外，我是一无所有，我是孤儿，如此坦率的，没有吸引力的台词，没有浪漫的，没有成功希望的台词！却是我的真心话！

媒婆当晚问我，怎么样！我说，中等。我第一次见到我的妻子，直觉告诉我，这是一个贤妻良母。和我见过的漂亮的剧团美女，美院的美女都不一样。是个过日子的人。媒人说，那就定了！我说好！

第二年，订婚，没钱，我硬是画了两个布景，给照相馆，挣得600元，在康复路买了一堆衣服，便了事。那天，丈母娘看到床上只有那一点点可怜的衣服，不高兴，便独自在水管上洗衣服，一脸的失望。我暗暗发誓，今后一定要对丈母娘好。（果然，我所有的节日都要送礼物给丈母娘。后来，雇了一个保姆，丈母娘在我的家里度过了幸福的晚年，这是后话。）

结婚，定在元月，我俩坐上班车，到了西安，因为没有家，便去了姨妈家，我上街买了菜，回到姨妈家做了四菜一汤，我在姨妈家便悄悄的完婚了。回到小县城，老丈人摆了15桌酒席，他自己做的饭菜，好一片热闹！

我的新房，是小学的一个房子，我用红毛线，大头针编了一个大大的双喜，家具是我用假期画宣传画，书画班挣的钱1000元换来的。不够，借了妻子300元，便有了一套家具，一个大床！晚上，小舅子拉来电视机，黄河牌的，风扇，收音机，三大件电器!

到周公庙求子，道人给我说了，你们的婚姻是自然天成，一个属马，一个属虎，古人云，马马虎虎，便是好姻缘！一个是佛堂上的千年蜘蛛，一个是阶下石旁的小草上的一颗露珠。千年修得姻缘在，会生头胎便是女！虎女福如海，福报自然来。天生虎女有才貌，万事不愁自来消。
