The baby who had just turned one year old in her arms had just fallen asleep. "When I was at home, my baby went to bed at 12 noon, and I probably haven't adapted well today." At around 8 o'clock that morning, Wang Lijuan, her sister Wang Liqin and her sister-in-law Dai Xiaofang took the bus mobilized by the local government department and evacuated from Sanhe Ancient Town to settle in this resettlement site.

"I'm not worried at this time." Wang Lijuan never thought about transferring the property from her house. "I am a woman and can't move things." What's more, she had talked with an old man on the third floor before, "After the flood in 1991, the old man used his hand to describe that the water depth exceeded the window on the second floor that year. Then I don't want to move things."
