013, in a poor rural family in Hunan, a sensible girl has already taken on the burden of her family, and staying strong has become her first reaction to everyone. But when an elder in her seventies was mentioned, a gentle emotion flashed in her eyes.
After the first time she met, she was full of admiration for the old man.
When the two appeared in the village together for the second time, they had spent ten years as husband and wife.
She is Zhang Feng, and the old man is affectionately called Daddy Wen by her.
Poor Zhang Feng
In 1987, a pregnant woman named Zhang appeared in a hospital in Changsha City, Hunan Province. She said she wanted to undergo an abortion.
An ordinary abortion operation was carried out smoothly, and no one devoted too much attention after the matter was completed.
But something incredible happened. After a while, the pregnant woman still came to the hospital with her big belly!
The pregnant woman who came to check up and the family members who accompanied her were confused. Why did the miscarriage surgery be completed, but there was still a pregnancy reaction? The pregnant woman's belly did not calm down because of this.
After hearing about this situation, the doctor carefully examined the pregnant woman and found that there was still a life in her belly.
Because the previous operation did not show that the pregnant woman had twins in her belly, she only had one miscarriage during the operation.
This is a child with very tenacious vitality, so she had to be born helplessly. After she came to this world, her mother named her Feng.
This is the story of a poor family in a beautiful village in Hunan Province in 1987.
There were four children in the family before this child was born. Good words are already in pairs in this family. One more ordinary family environment is a burden.
For this unprepared family, she is an unexpected existence and an unwelcome existence.
Although the family is financially difficult than other families in the village, life continues to live with the mutual support of the family.
In order to maintain the life of a family, the mother has to put in a lot of physical labor in her daily life. A person's energy is limited and she cannot take care of the whole family carefully.
When Zhang Feng was only about one year old, she often became hungry due to her mother's negligence.
When she was less than two years old, she suffered a very serious illness.
Due to the care of her family, her body caused a high fever and cold during a cold catching a cold. She was dying and was eventually sent to the hospital.
With the doctor's efforts to save this strong girl, she was rescued, but her body also collapsed.
Symptoms such as frequent fever have accompanied her throughout her life, and her physical health is not as good as her peers.
When Zhang Feng was about to finish elementary school, her physical condition and family conditions no longer allowed her to continue studying, so she dropped out of school and returned to her family.
This sensible child knows how to be considerate of his parents. When his mother is too busy with housework, she often takes the initiative to help. When her father does some farm work, she also helps with farm work.
is such a well-behaved child. Even her family who is related to her, she often finds various excuses to scold her or say that she does little work.
, but she did not get the likes of her four brothers and sisters, nor did she please her mother. The only one in the family who would take care of her and care about her condition was her father.
The father will severely criticize and stop her when other family members scold her.
So she often can feel the warmth of a normal family only when her father is on the scene, because no one dares to touch her father's majesty.
Zhang Feng's brother is very different from his age. Zhang Feng's elder brother had already married and had his own children when she was a child.
Another year or two passed, and because of a sudden accident, my father fell down in the hardships of life. When
was rescued again, he was diagnosed with stroke . From then on, this tall and tall father could only spend the rest of his life in the hospital bed.
This also makes this ordinary family life difficult and difficult.
At this time, the weak Zhang Feng took the initiative to take responsibility for taking care of her father. When she was young, she worked hard to find a job and let the money be spent on her father's treatment.
Relying on the savings and work income at home, the Zhang family was able to take Zhang's father to a large hospital in big cities for treatment.
However, the treatment of stroke is very difficult, and the expenditure on running water does not yield significant returns.
Zhang's father's condition is still the same, and the living conditions at home have become more difficult during the years of running around.
Traditional Chinese Medicine in the village
People in the village have more or less heard of the story of the Zhang family. Some people sympathize with their experiences and suggest that they take a look at traditional Chinese medicine. Maybe they can try the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine in the village.
Dead horse treats the living horse Zhang Feng's mother holds a try-out mentality and finds Wen Changlin, an old Chinese doctor living in the village at this time.
When they came to the old Chinese doctor, they saw an old man with kind looks, who was older than Zhang Feng's father.
At this time, the old Chinese doctor had just held his great-grandson and his family life was harmonious. He is also a respected existence in the village with his medical skills and sincere charging system.
After hearing about Zhang’s father’s situation, he expressed deep sympathy and decided to treat Zhang’s father.
Only Zhang's mother and Zhang Feng are at home to maintain the work at home, and the other brothers and sisters have gone out to work.
At that time, only the young Zhang Feng was really messed up in pharmacology such as catching medicine and decoction.
Wen Changlin, who couldn't see it, was worried about the impact on Zhang Feng's father's body due to the mistake in decoction.
So in order to facilitate treatment, the older he decided to live in Zhang Feng's house.
Zhang Feng grew up under the ignorance of the family, and her personality has become more and more taciturn in recent years. In addition, she has no intimate partners in the village.
Under the influence of these factors, Zhang Feng also developed some mental illnesses and suffered mental torture every day.
However, her experience was not tolerated and understood by the people around her, and she was even insulted and beaten for a while.
Whenever Wen Changlin finds that Zhang Feng is being bullied, he will protect Zhang Feng and stop others from hurting him.
Not only that, she also carefully studied pharmacology, and relying on traditional Chinese medicine to improve Zhang Feng's mental state. This meticulous care and treatment of
has given Xiao Zhangfeng a trustworthy support for the first time in his youthful years.
The arrival of the old man gave Zhang Feng a person to communicate with.
She can tell Wen Changlin about her happy things every day, and Wen Changlin shared her experience with her, and the two became friends who could talk about everything.
Zhang Feng was very happy that in this world, he felt the warmth that resembled his family. A piece of dry land seemed to bloom and grow again.
Zhang Feng’s 16th birthday, she gained unexpected gains, which was her own birthday cake that she had longed for.
She blows off the candle in front of the cake to realize her wish, and everything feels like illusion.
She tasted the sweetness of the cake. Looking up, the person who blessed her with a smile on her face in front of the cake was Wen Changlin.
And this hard-won birthday cake was also purchased by Wen Changlin. The warmth that he did not feel in the family seems to be healed by this cake at this moment.
Everything gradually got better with a smile, Zhang's father's success in searching for a doctor in many places was improved under Wen Changlin's traditional Chinese medicine treatment , and this tall figure appeared again in the ridges and in the vegetable fields.
Zhang Feng and others disagreed with the behavior of starting to work again before they had recovered, but Zhang's father felt sorry for the burden of the family on his wife and daughter. He did not listen to the advice and still went to work.
In 2008, when Zhang Feng was in his 20s, the long-healed stroke of Zhang's father suddenly hit again. This time, Zhang's father never opened his eyes again.
The laughter of the Zhang family was no longer there. Zhang Feng felt very sad, but he still cheered up to deal with his father's funeral and took care of his mother who was disabled at this time.
Wen Changlin, who felt sorry for Zhang Feng, gave Zhang Feng a pension to help her relieve her predicament at this time.
Zhang Feng couldn't describe the inner touch at this time, and his feelings for Wen Changlin were no longer just a respect for his elders.
Going out to work has actually led to marriage
to the age of being a family. Zhang Feng’s marriage was brought up in this family, but Zhang Feng was not very interested.
Because the family did not seriously consider Zhang Feng's situation, just thought that they could receive a rich bride gift due to Zhang Feng's marriage.
This seriously defeated Zhang Feng's psychological bottom line at home for so many years.
Moreover, at the last moment of Zhang’s father’s life, Zhang Feng’s brothers and sisters’ performance was not satisfactory, which aroused Zhang Feng’s strong dissatisfaction.
quarreled again with her family. She was very clear about her family situation and hoped to spend the rest of her life with someone she liked.
After the dispute failed, she decided to go to Changsha to find a job and escape from her family.
She hopes to take this opportunity to avoid quarrels with her family, and also hopes to find more opportunities to save money and provide her mother with a better elderly care life.
When she came to the new city excitedly, she realized the strong sense of uneasiness.
She has been living in a small county town and feels very uncomfortable with the current strangeness. Where is her future?
She is still taciturn and has no one in this city who can be called a close friend.
Whenever she feels depressed when encountering something or just wants to chat with someone, she cannot find a partner to talk to.
At this time, the figure of Wen Changlin who had listened to her talk seriously appeared in her mind again, and she realized that she missed him very much.
By chance, they added their respective contact information on their mobile phones, and have been in stable contact since then.
It is a pleasure for them to share the trivial matters of life in ordinary days.
Emotional progress occurred in a mobile phone loss incident. During 10 years, Zhang Feng, who was working outside, accidentally lost his mobile phone, and was lost to Wen Changlin for a long time.
Wen Changlin, who was not sure about Zhang Feng's situation, felt very worried. He was very afraid that in a strange city, what problems did this girl encounter that she could not solve by herself.
Relying on recalling the general location mentioned in the telephone exchange before, Wen Changlin came to the city where she worked.
An old man of this age actually successfully found the location where Zhang Feng is in this huge city.
saw Wen Changlin find her, and when she learned that she was currently in the situation, she took the initiative to buy a mobile phone for herself so that she could live and work.
At that moment, Zhang Feng finally calmed down in his worry and at a loss of his phone these days.
She felt very satisfied and realized that she fell in love with the person in front of her. The confession she blurted out shocked the old man.
Thinking of the huge age difference between the two and the rumors and family resistance brought by the age difference, he firmly rejected this very young girl.
He was afraid that her youth would be delayed because of a moment of impulse.
But how could a young girl give up so easily? She determined that Wen Changlin was different from others without hesitation.
The woman chased the man's partition. In the subsequent process of getting along, Zhang Feng persevered in his pursuit of Wen Changlin, and he was meticulous in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
When Zhang Feng was 23 years old, their relationship made a lot of progress, and finally they decided not to take into account the opinions of others.
The literary master did not have much opposition to this, but the Zhang family found it difficult to accept that his daughter, who was in her 20s, married a "bad old man" in their eyes.
During the process of falling in love, the process of getting along with the two of them is often brought out to discuss.
Special When two people walk hand in hand on the road when they go out shopping, pedestrians often explore them with curious eyes, and they will also lament the filial piety of this "granddaughter".
However, this outside gaze did not disturb the pure thoughts of the two. The two respected their inner feelings and continued to move forward unswervingly on this road.
In 2012, the two got married and held a banquet in the village where they had lived for a long time. The two finally became husband and wife under the permission of the law and the witness of the outside world.
Recalling the first meeting with Wen Changlin, Zhang Feng said that he had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with him, as if he had seen him in a dream a long time ago.
She cherishes and believes in her choice, and she feels that his partner is the existence sent by God to save him.
The life and recent situation after marriage
In fact, under the opposition of everyone, the two did not want to get married like this. The reason why the two decided to register was because Zhang Feng became pregnant after two years together and the child had to be registered.
At this time, Wen Changlin Wanlai, who was 71 years old, had a child. Zhang Feng was pregnant for ten months, and they had a healthy baby.
In the years since then, the family of three still lived in the temple where Wen Changlin lived before.
In order to subsidize their family’s livelihood, they participated in interview programs many times, hoping to add an extra program allowance to provide sufficient source of living.
On the screen, these two age differences have attracted a lot of attention.
The crowd in the audience was very surprised when they told them about their identities, especially in some marriage and love columns.
was unbelievable at first, but later she sighed that the world was unpredictable. After listening to the stories of the two, the scene was even a little uproar.
They show their firm determination and emotions in a secular perspective, and they also hope that they can gain recognition from their families with the help of these public occasions.
This couple, who are more than 40 years apart, have known each other for 10 years.
Jun was not born, I was old, after I participated in the show, the two of them also realized their wish to hold another wedding after marriage.
In 2022, the two created their own Douyin account and recorded their daily lives in the form of videos.
One side has a gray hair and a clean beard. She looks weak, while the other side has a smile, a pretty face, and takes care of her husband very carefully.
Their children have also grown to 9 years old and are in elementary school. This marriage and love accident that does not care about age, wealth and identity is pure and harmonious.
For the rest of the time, the two also took a trip to two people, from rumors to family recognition, and every minute of time they spend together is cherished by them.
However, at the end of September this year, Zhang Feng posted a video of Dad Wen's death on his social account. Wen Changlin is 81 years old. In his later years, he is very lucky to be able to pass away safely by the woman he likes.
Now many people advise Zhang Feng to remarry, after all, she is only 36 years old. But she only hopes to make money to raise her children well, and avoids this problem.
I hope she will get out of her sadness as soon as possible and usher in a new life.
