In 2004, a 28-year-old ordinary woman, Weng Fan, married an 82-year-old scientist, Yang Zhenning. When
learned the news, people who didn't know about it were shocked:
Since ancient times, marriages have been about the same age, and they are the right match!
And Weng Fan married a scientist 54 years her senior. Could it be that she covets his property?
However, for things like love and marriage, has always been like a person drinking water and knowing it!
Mr. Yang, who has the most say, said to the national audience in "Interview with Yang Lan" in their 11th year of marriage:
Weng Fan is a gift from God.
01
Weng Fan and Mr. Yang first met in 1995.
19-year-old Weng Fan is a freshman in Shantou University . She is beautiful and excellent and selected by the school to receive 75-year-old Yang Zhenning and Du Zhili , who are visiting China.
Du Zhili was in poor health along the way. Mr. Yang patiently helped her walk and stop while explaining advanced physics knowledge to the people around her.
Weng Fan not only met the knowledgeable Mr. Yang, but also saw his deep affection for his wife. Weng Fan's respect for Mr. Yang is a little warmer!
Mr. and Mrs. Yang also liked the kind and diligent Weng Fan very much. Before leaving, they took pictures with her and left their contact information.
In 2003, Mrs. Du Zhili, who spent 53 years of marriage with Mr. Yang, passed away due to illness.
Mr. Yang's world suddenly eclipsed . At the age of 81, he seems to be a different person. He doesn't like to go out and join in the fun. I often lock myself in my room, and look at the beautiful and warm photos of my wife countless times.
html Weng Fan, a 427-year-old graduate student, learned of this unfortunate news. Weng Fan took the initiative to ask Mr. Yang to chat over the weekend, travel and relax, encouraging and enlightening him.
Slowly, with Weng Fan's help, Mr. Yang's life was once again full of sunshine:
In the rapeseed bushes in midsummer, he took Weng Fan's hand and smiled brightly like a child. Under the golden autumn leaves, he happily sat on the bench in Tsinghua Garden and told Weng Fan about his past.
Mr. Yang said: Weng Fan is a gift from God.
With Weng Fan by his side, he is at ease, happy and energetic.

Love also came quietly without knowing it.
At first, when Mr. Yang and Weng Fan realized that they were in love with each other, the 54-year-old age difference made them determined to distance themselves from each other, and planned to endure not calling or seeing each other for a long time.
But in less than three days, Weng Fan will be concerned about whether Mr. Yang can eat enough, clothe himself, and take care of himself? Mr. Yang felt that the food was tasteless, and he couldn't calm down when he read books and prepared lessons, and couldn't help but miss Weng Fan.
After a strong ideological struggle, Mr. Yang confessed to Weng Fan, and the two gathered up the courage to be together.
Mr. Yang took Weng Fan to meet his sons and daughters in the United States. The sons and daughters found:
With Weng Fan's father by his side, there were stars in his eyes. This is the light that I haven't seen in my father's eyes for a long time after my mother's death.
So I support my father marrying Weng Fan again.
Weng Fan's parents could not accept that his son-in-law was 26 years older than them. Weng Fan took the trouble to do his parents' work and took Mr. Yang to see his parents many times. After getting acquainted with
, Weng Fan's parents found that Mr. Yang was a treasure for his daughter, and he was very knowledgeable and self-disciplined.
In December 2004, 28-year-old Weng Fan and 82-year-old Yang Zhenning entered the palace of marriage with the blessings of their parents and relatives.

Facing the outside world's doubts about Weng Fan, Yang Zhenning, as her husband, protected Weng Fan in time, and said sincerely to the camera:
Weng Fan is a gift from God!
Mr. Yang is right, Weng Fan is a good wife who cherishes her husband.
After marriage, Weng Fan gave up the bad habit of staying up late at night to surf the Internet and sleeping late in the morning for Mr. Yang, and insisted on accompany him to go to bed early and get up early to exercise. The students of Tsinghua Garden saw that in the morning with countless flowers and birds, Weng Fan supported Mr. Yang to walk in the morning light, which was very warm and romantic.
Afraid of Mr. Yang's bad teeth and stomach, Weng Fan gave up the Mala Tang , hot pot he used to love, and insisted on making soft and glutinous soup and porridge for Mr. Yang three meals a day.
Mr. Yang cherishes Weng Fan even more. When goes out to participate in academic activities, Mr. Yang often takes Weng Fan with him, and the two are intertwined and inseparable.
Those famous Chinese and foreign celebrities saw Mr. Yang's love for his wife Weng Fan, cherished and respected her, and were willing to be friends with her.
In addition, Mr. Yang also supported Weng Fan to go to Tsinghua to read a blog, and led her to write books at home.
In his spare time, Weng Fan played the piano. Mr. Yang took a newspaper and watched and listened to it on the rocking chair next to him. With Mr. Yang's company, Weng Fan could not finish playing the piano for an afternoon.
The days when the piano is imminent, really make many couples who are in the marriage envy.
Concluding remarks
Today, the two have been married for 17 years. The 99-year-old Mr. Yang is still healthy, and the 45-year-old Weng Fan is as beautiful as ever.
The enduring "Yang Wenglian" has taught a deep lesson for those couples who are clamoring for divorce after a word of disagreement:
In addition to being of similar age and being a good match for marriage,
What is more important is to change for each other's sake and treat each other as a gift from God gifts, and cherish each other.
