The octogenarian is looking for college classmates, today's headlines matchmaking, more than 50 years later finally "reunited", but unfortunately the Si people have gone

Xin'an Evening News Anhui Network Dawan News Recently, the "Xin'an Gang" reporter received a request for help from Mr. Zhang Lao, a user of Today's headline Hefei Channel, who studied at Hefei University of Technology in the 60s of the last century, and after graduation, everyone ran to things, and over time and many college friends "lost contact". Now that he is 80 years old, he has always had a knot to be unraveled: "When he and many classmates got along like relatives, after graduation, he has been looking for old classmate Qi Songling, but he is suffering from no clues, hoping to find old classmates in his old age, and everyone can get together." Over the past few days, the reporters of the "Xin'an Gang" have traveled many times and finally contacted Qi Songling's younger brother.

The old friendship is deep, and the old classmates have searched for many years without results

Mr. Zhang Lao told the "Xin'an Gang" reporter that he went to college in 1960 and studied in the 65-2 class of the industrial enterprise electrification automation major in the Department of Electrical Engineering of Hefei University of Technology. After graduating from university in 1965, Mr. Zhang Lao was assigned to the Sichuan Design Institute of the Chengdu Ministry of Petroleum, while his classmate Qi Songling was assigned to the Chongqing Coal Design and Research Institute.

"In the first few years of graduation, we still had contact with each other. Around 1968, Qi Songling returned to Hefei, when I was working in Chengdu and my lover was working in Hefei, the two of them met and took a group photo. "Mr. Zhang took out the old photos of that year, although after many years, the photos are still very clear and complete, and it can be seen that they have been carefully preserved." Shortly after that, Qi Songling sent another photo, taken when her son was 83 days old, which she wrote behind the photo. It didn't take long for us to get in touch. Recalling the past, Mr. Zhang was very emotional, "In the past, we had a very good relationship, but now that we are older, we want to find her more and more." ”

Mr. Zhang told the "Xin'an Gang" reporter that Ms. Qi Songling's lover is also their college classmate, named Si Kaihua, and because he was assigned to a confidential unit after graduation, there was very little contact between them. In addition, there was a female classmate who was assigned to Xi'an after graduation, and later gradually lost contact.

The photo was taken in 1963, and the fifth from the left in a row is Qi Songling

After searching, he learned that the Slovaks had gone

According to Mr. Zhang, he had contacted the Chongqing Coal Design and Research Institute, but unfortunately, a staff member told him that there was no one named Qi Songling in the unit.

After searching for fruitless work units, the reporter decided to start from Ms. Qi Songling's hometown. So I contacted the relevant staff of Hefei University of Technology. Finally, with his help, he found the student registration card from the archives of the University of Technology, which had the home address of the old man who had enrolled in the school. Among them, Qi Songling's registered home address is: Shiniu Brigade of Sili Commune, Jiyuan County, Henan Province; and Si Kaihua's registered home address is: Xiaojiang Village, Matang Brigade, Guanba Commune, Quanjiao County, Anhui Province. According to the address on the student registration card, the reporter searched on the Internet and found that Jiyuan County in that year has now become Jiyuan City, and there is a Sili Town under Jiyuan City, which is speculated to be the Sili Commune of that year, and the Shiniu Village under the Sili Town may be the Shiniu Brigade of that year.

On January 17, the reporter contacted the town government of Shangsili Town and asked for the mobile phone number of the village secretary of Shiniu Village. After answering the phone, the secretary of the village branch of Shiniu Village said that he did not remember that there was an old man named Qi Songling in the village, and then he helped to inquire about the old man surnamed Qi in the village, and finally found Qi Songling's family. "There is indeed such an old man in our village, but she died seven or eight years ago, so I will give you her brother's phone."

Shocked, the reporter of the "Xin'an Gang" once again talked on the phone with Qi Songling's younger brother Qi Hexiang. Qi Hexiang said that his sister Qi Songling did work at the Chongqing Coal Design and Research Institute that year, but left around 1976 and then went to work in the work unit of his brother-in-law Si Kaihua. "When my sister was in college, I went to see her, and I remember that she did have a classmate named Zhang." Speaking of the old story, Qi Hexiang revealed some regrets in his words, "My sister passed away in 2014, and my brother-in-law died long before my sister left, and I remember that she also went to Xi'an two years before she died, just to visit her old classmates." ”

Decades of searching, finally have an end, Mr. Zhang did not expect that after more than 50 years, the two will "reunite" in such a way. "Hearing you tell me the news of the death of Si Kaihua and Qi Songling, my heart trembled, I found it too late, sorry!" Today is also my wish. Those who are alive should cherish it well. When the reporter informed the old Mr. Zhang that Qi Songling had passed away, he said so.
