Wang Yulian, a centenary born in the Qing Dynasty, is now 105 years old and lives in an ordinary residential building in Zang Jia Tun District, Tianqiao District. Because of her age, she could only lie in bed every day, occasionally open her eyes, and cast a vague smile on the person who came to visit her. In the eyes of children and grandchildren, Wang Yulian's longevity password is related to this smile. "
" the old man was born in the last year of the Qing Dynasty. She experienced a century of change in Ji'nan. She has experienced all the historical changes of the past century, but she has gone through her heart and calm. " Wang Yulian's two son, Du Zhihou, said. What are the experiences of the elderly?

On the bedside cupboard stands an honor card issued by the Ji'nan Civil Affairs Bureau, engraved with the word "longevity house" for four words.
Wang Yulian was a real Jinan who was born in an old family in the late Qing Dynasty in 1911. Because she has a pair of "three inch Golden Lotus", she is regarded as a celebrity nearby. Reporters learned that the old man's feet were entangled by his mother when he was young. When you begin to twist your feet, you must wrap the feet tightly with cloth, leaving no gaps. At that time, after all, she was young, and sometimes she could not bear the pain. She asked her mother to tear down the cloth, so that it could be relieved for a short time. But in the feudal era, the custom of wrapping foot was considered to be a manifestation of a good family woman. The girl who did not bind up had difficulties to marry, but the deformed foot was called "three inch Golden Lotus".
"though it is not tied now, it has been tied up." Then, the old man took off his shoes and socks, and saw a pair of small feet about 3 inches long. Besides the thumbs were normal, the other four fingers were already wrapped in the soles of his feet. "Mother once said, at that time, every step of the way was painful for the sole of the foot, but everyone was like this, and she used to be used to it for a long time." Du Shenghou, the three son, said that his mother had gone through the hundred years' history with these three inch Golden Lotus, and witnessed the transformation of China from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the new age.

born in the manufacturing market and marry in the manufacturing market. Wang Yulian married and had children in the city, until the five dragon pond park was built in 1985 before the family moved to the vicinity of Zang Jia Tun District, four road.
in the memory of children and grandchildren, Wang Yulian is not only good at home, friendly to his neighbors, but also understands the general and educating his children to love the country. "My mother has not been to school, not much knowledge, but I am very knowledgeable." Du Shenghou also remembered his mother's experience of supporting the front of the PLA soldiers with the sole of his shoes. "At that time I was small, about the time of the founding of new China in 1949. For a while, my mother was very busy every day and was busy with the sole of Zhan Shina's shoes for the war. Not only did she participate actively, she also mobilized her neighbors. In addition to doing housework every day, the rest of the time is spent on sole and never tired.
"then she called several of our children to show us the heap of her shoes and told us that the soldiers were fighting the enemy bravely, our lives were all protected by them, and we had to be patriotic. In front of us, she handed the shoes to the soldiers at the front line for months. Recollection of these, Du Sheng's thickness still has a deep feeling.
Wang Yulian's patriotic sentiment is also extended to his children and grandchildren. "Now I often use my mother as an example to educate my children to be patriotic and always grateful." Du Shenghou said.
her own life is frugal but generous to bury her dead neighbor
Wang Yulian gave birth to 6 children. "There are many children in the house, and most of them are boys. Because their mother's housework is very much, and they have to look after us a few children, they are working very hard every day." Three son Du Shenghou said.
although life is hard, Wang Yulian is not pessimistic. "The mother is very optimistic. In those days, life was difficult for many families. But as long as her mother saw difficulties in her neighbor's house, she did not hesitate to help. Du Shenghou can still remember that when he was young, his mother saw the two old people who were selling their money to earn their living and died suddenly. Wang Yulian immediately deducted a portion of his salary and buried the old two.
in the eyes of the children, Wang Yulian rarely bought his own new clothes and cooked food. "The mother often educates us, life is not easy, to keep thrift and frugality. When we were young, she gave us an example, and we had a family. She still taught us so. Even now, life is good. Every time a child in the family goes to see her, she still educating her grandchildren. " Du Shenghou said.
now, the family has 3 doctorate and 3 master's, which makes Wang Yulian happy, as Wang Yu Lun's granddaughter said, "seeing the generations more and more, grandma is happy. Family and harmony, she also no longer for children's heart, and the mood is natural. Optimistic, independent is the secret of the longevity of centenarians
Du Shenghou's eyes, the mother's longevity and her life hard to work, "even if she is more than 90 years old, she still buys food, cook himself, and take care of some housework."
Du Shenghou said, the mother's other longevity code is a unique eating habit. "Every morning she has to eat an egg, eat a little honey, eat some steamed stuffed bun at noon and eat a little fleshy at ordinary times, and eat a little bit of soft cake and drink a small cup of milk at night. But it's not enough to eat every time. It's enough to eat seven points. "
now, the 105 year old Wang Yulian has been together for five generations. "My sister already has a grandson." Du Shenghou said his elder sister, Wang Yulian's eldest daughter, is 85 years old this year.
"although the elder sister is getting older, she still insists on visiting her mother's place every week." Du Shenghou said. On the cupboard beside the door of Wang Yulian's bedroom stood a small blackboard. On the small blackboard, the work site was written with the words "a mother has a home, and a family is happy." Du Shenghou said, when children come to see their mother, they all write such a word, "although we have been grandparents, but we are still children in front of our mother, we want to maintain the family relationship well, let the mother see our harmonious family, her mood is smooth."
"plain and light is bliss", and mother is ordinary, but she brings great happiness to our children and grandchildren. Kosun Kojun, in turn, made her feel better and longer. Du Zhihou said.
