this new year for home to Nanjing, the nearly 80 year old old man, Wang Xiaohua, is destined to be this The most memorable Spring Festival in my life. At thirty p.m. in the new year, four days later, she went on the train to Xi'an alone, without telling her family members. The old man said she would go to Xi'an to find a good sister who had been 60 years old. But in the old man's hands, there was only one address of communication between the two sides 20 years ago. The vast sea of people has gone so long. Can the old man's wish be fulfilled?
old Wang Xiaohua was born in 1939, and the good sister she was looking for was her childhood neighbour. The two people played in a yard in Anhui's old home and grew up, and they had never seen them since 1953.
Wang Xiaohua: "always want to (find), but at that time the young were running, working outside, retired to old, nostalgic, and wanted to be old friends."
23 years ago, that is, in 1994, in Beijing, Wang Xiaohua was inquiring, contacted the good sister Han Xiaoying in Xi'an, at that time two people had correspondence. The old man came to Xi'an with this old envelope.
Wang Xiaohua: "this time, because of the new year, the children are arranged, I specially arranged my children to the son's house to eat, I left and said to my son and daughter. My son called me at four and said, "Mom, I came to pick you up for dinner. I said no, I got on the train."
because many people in Xi'an are eager to help the elderly on the train back to Xi'an.
Wang Xiaohua: "you have a girl named swallow who left my phone number. And on the train, he helped me to contact her father and asked him to help me find out this family temple. Her father said there was no family temple but Hu Jia temple. The word is a bit like that. The factory of the steel window is even less clear. The people I met told me that you could never find them.
what is not expected is that the process of looking for the old man is surprisingly smooth, in the Xi'an Hu Jia Temple police station, just met the community police officer Zhang, just a police officer to know the person she is looking for.
the Xi'an Municipal Public Security Bureau New Town Branch Hu Jia Miao police station police Zhang Xiaowei: "I used to, this yard has been in charge of ten years, I was very familiar with the big mother, I look at the aunt, directly brought over."
, then, on the second morning of Wang Xiaohua's old man's arrival in Xi'an, the old man found his "little buddy", Han Xiaoying, who was already 77 years old.
Han Xiaoying: "I was so touched, I was holding her, and I thought, in my life, I was (my parents) my daughter, no sister, no sister." When I was 80 years old, my sister came to see me, and I was very happy.
after seeing a good sister, Wang Xiaohua was in a good mood. She joked that this time it was a typical "leaving home", but she also paid a reporter for the family of Nanjing to be safe, and she returned to Nanjing in two days. Next time she comes, she will give her family a formal "leave".
