yesterday, the streets of Liaoning Road, north of the city, held a hand exhibition of community residents with their own handmade works such as paper cutting, floral flowers and knitted hooks. Wei Shengqin, 93, is also exhibiting his own "100 year old shoes". Wei Lao Tai did not shake his hands and his eyes did not flower. The scene embroidered flowers on the palm wide "100 year old shoes", so that the residents were amazed.
Wei Lao Tai told reporters that she started learning when she was 50 years old. At that time, the granddaughter of the eldest daughter was born. According to the custom of Jiaozhou's hometown, grandma was going to prepare a hundred year old shoes for her grandson when she was over 100 years old. Because the shop did not sell it, Wei Lao Tai himself figured out a pair. After that, when I was at home, I thought about sewing "100 year old shoes". "Now I have 15 grandchildren, grandchildren and grandchildren. Children over the age of 100 are wearing my 100 year old shoes." Wei Lao Tai is too proud to say that there are few people who can sew "hundred year old shoes" in the city now. She has become a "rare" craft. The neighbourhood's neighbors have children who are over 100 years old. They are willing to come to find her to do a pair of "hundred year old shoes".
