A lighthearted stainless steel plaque that a father gave to his wife after the birth of their daughter, continuing a romantic tradition for the couple, went viral on the mainland Chinese internet as an example of a real-life romantic comedy.
The plaque read: “Congratulations on having a baby girl! Giving birth to a child is awesome, Zhang Yingxiao! August 2022.” The message was made slightly more humorous by the fact that their daughter was born on July 31.
A picture of the new father, Li Siru, holding the plaque next to his wife received over 230 million views on Weibo. Li told Wutong Video: “My wife’s expected delivery date was August 6, but she started to have contractions on July 30 and gave birth to our child the next day.”
And because the plaque was made ahead of time, the date on the plaque could not be changed, according to Li.
