015 Women's Volleyball World Cup , the Chinese women's volleyball team won the championship. The women's volleyball players with an average age of less than 20 years old once again let the world see the power of the Chinese women's volleyball team with their youth and passion.

Everyone only saw Zhu Ting's beautiful appearance and her achievements in sports, but no one knew how much she had paid to get these.
In an interview, Zhu Ting said that when she was training in the team, her favorite brother got leukemia and entered the hospital.
In order not to affect Zhu Ting's preparation for the competition, her parents chose to keep silent. After returning from the competition, Zhu Ting learned that her younger brother had passed away due to illness. This incident has become Zhu Ting's eternal regret.
Zhu Ting and her family
How hard it is to study sports
Zhu Ting is a very independent woman. She was born in an ordinary rural family in Zhoukou City, Henan Province in 1994. Her parents are honest farmers and have been with her all her life. When dealing with crops, the concept of the older generation is that it is better to have more children. They think that having more children will guarantee their life when they get old.
Under the influence of this concept, Zhu Ting's parents gave birth to six children. Zhu Ting is the third child at home. She has two older sisters, two younger sisters and a younger brother.
Although it is very hard for the two parents to support the six children in the family, they still give the children the best living conditions. Fortunately, Zhu Ting's father Zhu Anliang besides farming, he also has a car repair job ability.
Zhu Anliang's car repair shed has a good business, and he can earn a little extra money every day.
Zhu Ting's parents
When Zhu Ting was young, she never thought that she would take the road of sports when she grew up. Later, her head teacher found her and asked her tentatively: "Zhu Ting, you are so tall Gao, have you thought about engaging in sports in the future?"
Zhu Ting was stunned when she heard what the class teacher said, because she had never been in contact with this kind of thing before, so she just vaguely passed it.
The head teacher also found Zhu Ting's family for this purpose, and told them the benefits of learning sports and the future development direction. In this way, under the guidance of the teacher, she fell in love with sports and officially took this path. The reason why teacher
is so sure that Zhu Ting is suitable for taking this path has something to do with her height. At that time, Zhu Ting was not yet 13 years old, but her height was already over 1.7 meters. I learned that Zhu Ting was willing to engage in sports After that, the physical education teacher recommended her to Zhoukou Sports School.
Zhu Ting
Zhu Ting is a very sensible girl, she knows how difficult it is for her to come to this school, so after entering the school, she also worked very hard.
Excellent, she soon got the attention of the principal of the school, Xia Luhai, and under his guidance, she carried out a one-year professional sports study.
In 2008, the Henan Provincial Physical Education School came to the following prefecture-level city to select good seedlings. As soon as they got the news, the principal recommended Zhu Ting to him.
Because Zhu Ting performed very well, and she met the standard of "girls under the age of 14 and over 1.8 meters tall", she immediately transferred to the provincial sports school and entered the provincial team training.
So far, she has officially started to get in touch with volleyball. At that time, Zhu Ting did not realize that she would go so far on the road of volleyball in the future.
Zhu Ting
After several years of training in the provincial sports school, Zhu Ting went to Henan Xinyuan women's volleyball team to play, and in 2009 entered the Henan Provincial Youth Women's Volleyball Team.
As Zhu Ting's platform became bigger and bigger, her burden became heavier. As we all know, the amount of training in the sports school is huge, and the professional sports team is extremely hard.
We don't know how Zhu Ting, who was only a teenager, survived that time, and we don't know whether she secretly wiped tears in the middle of the night because she was studying abroad alone. We only know that she walked on the court every time , and strive to do their best.
Although she has to complete six or seven hours of high-intensity training every day, she has never complained to her family.
Zhu Ting
For her, her parents can support her and give herself this opportunity to learn, she is already very content. She just wants to get ahead as soon as possible and enter the school team, provincial team, and national team so that she can repay her parents in the future.
When talking about this period of time, Zhu Ting was also very embarrassed. At that time, the conditions in her home were still not very good, but her parents did their best to provide her with the best living conditions.
Zhu Ting has a lot of training every day, and she also eats a lot. Her daily food expenditure is about twice that of other girls of the same age, but her parents have never complained about it .
Every time they meet her, her parents will ask her if she has enough money? Can you eat enough to train? Did you suffer?
Zhu Ting knows that her parents care about her, so every time she hears these questions, she smiles and replies that it's not hard, don't worry about me.
Zhu Ting and her parents
her younger brother fell ill and passed away
Zhu Ting, who was training outside, has always missed her brothers and sisters very much. Every time she saw her parents, she would ask about the situation of her brothers and sisters at home.
Once when her parents came to visit her, they brought her young brother with them. After seeing her younger brother, Zhu Ting was very happy and gave him all the snacks she had collected.
But when she was playing with her younger brother, she noticed that he was tired. She asked her parents why the younger brother looked so thin, was it because he couldn't eat well?
Zhu Ting's mother said: "It's okay, the child, how can he not be sick, he just has a cold, don't worry, we will take good care of him, you train well."
Zhu Ting was still young at that time, she didn't realize that her parents were lying to her, she just touched her brother affectionately and went back to training, before she left, she told her brother that next time I meet, my sister will buy it for you delicious.

Hearing what her sister said, her younger brother also laughed happily. Zhu Ting knew that yogurt was his favorite food, so every time she met her younger brother, she would prepare yogurt in advance and watch The way her younger brother licked the yogurt contentedly made Zhu Ting happy from the bottom of her heart.
But every time she came into contact with her younger brother, she could clearly feel his exhausted mental state. She asked her parents many times, what is wrong with him? Why hasn't it recovered for so long?
The parents still said vaguely to her: "It's not a big deal, it will be fine after a while".
Parents are very aware of how much Zhu Ting has endured while training alone, and they also know that at the time when her sports career is on the rise, they should not put too much pressure on their daughter, so no matter what her daughter asks, they will Did not tell the truth.
Zhu Ting and her parents
In fact, Zhu Ting's younger brother didn't have a cold at all, but leukemia.
Zhu Ting's family was not well-off. In order to send their daughter to a sports school, their family had already borrowed a lot of money from relatives. Their parents also worried about how to cure their son's disease.
Fortunately, the husband and wife are very popular among relatives. Knowing that the child has such a disease, the relatives also generously donated money and sent the child to the hospital.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for the doctor to match Zhu Ting's younger brother with a suitable bone marrow. After hearing the news, Zhu Ting's parents wept with joy, but the doctor's next words froze their smiles on their faces .
Zhu Ting's father
the cost of bone marrow transplantation is very high, the poor parents have no way to afford the cost, but in order to save the child, they still made a promise to the doctor, saying that they will use their hard work to make up for it the surgery fee. After
came back, their parents sold all the family property, including the land, cattle and sheep, and houses, which were temporarily sold to buyers. Zhu Ting's older sisters have also been working outside to earn money and see a doctor for their younger brother.
Thanks to the generosity of relatives and the joint efforts of the family, they finally collected enough money for the operation and sent him to the operating room.
During this period, Zhu Ting also often called her family to ask how her younger brother's illness was going. Every time, her parents would say that she's getting better soon, that she's getting better soon, so don't worry about training.
Zhu Ting
Unfortunately, after Zhu Ting's brother underwent bone marrow transplantation, his condition did not improve, but worsened.
The doctor said that the transplanted bone marrow produced a very strong rejection in Zhu Ting's younger brother's body, and the younger brother probably couldn't hold on.
Looking at the critical illness notice issued by the doctor, the parents fell silent. They didn't know whether they should tell Zhu Ting who was training about this matter.
While they were hesitating, their son passed away.
The death of the son directly crushed the family. When handling the son's funeral, Zhu Ting's parents also fell into self-blame. They didn't know how to explain everything to their daughter, so they had to lie again.
Zhu Ting's parents
But paper can't hold fire after all. After finishing the training, Zhu Ting returned home. As soon as she entered the door, she felt that the atmosphere was not right. After looking around, she asked her parents: "Where's my brother?" How is his illness?"
Hearing Zhu Ting's words, the parents didn't say a word, but under Zhu Ting's repeated inquiries, the mother finally told the truth about his brother's death.
After hearing the whole process of her younger brother's treatment, Zhu Ting collapsed, and she slumped down on the stool.
She felt her world collapsed, that was her favorite brother, the only boy in the family, how could such a thing happen? How could she know nothing?
Zhu Ting
caught up with success
Self-blame, collapse, and pain filled Zhu Ting's heart. On the one hand, she felt very broken. She wanted to ask her parents, why didn't they tell her about her brother's illness earlier? Why not let her come back to see her brother for the last time? Why not let her share a little more of her brother's illness like the rest of the family?
On the other hand, she blamed herself very much for not discovering her parents' anomaly and younger brother's illness earlier, and for not being able to share their pain for her parents.
Zhu Ting knew that the reason why her parents chose to hide the truth about her brother's death was that she didn't want to distract herself. They had already taken so much for themselves, and the death of their brother had brought them so much pain. Zhu Ting How could he have the heart to question and blame his parents?
Zhu Ting didn't know what to say or what to ask, she just sat there, crying, seeing her daughter so sad, her mother stepped forward to pat her and said: "Let's go, I I'll take you to see him."

Under the leadership of her mother, she saw her younger brother's tombstone, looked at the cute little boy, the little boy who had been chasing after her and called her sister, just lying under the cold stone monument, Zhu Ting couldn't bear it anymore No, I lay down on my younger brother's tombstone and cried bitterly.
The death of her younger brother made Zhu Ting grow up overnight. She knew that her brother's death not only brought endless grief to the family, but also brought the family tens of thousands of foreign debts.
In order to make up for her regrets, Zhu Ting trained even harder after returning to the team. She determined to get ahead as soon as possible to repay the money for her parents and let her family know that they did not trust the wrong person.
