Five years ago, after 4 surgeries in half a year, Xu Qinqin's face finally had a nose. She sent a circle of friends, "This is my little nose, I'm still getting used to it." ”
Because of being bitten off by a rat, Xu Qinqin has been living in the ridicule and strange eyes of the people around her for 21 years. She also dropped out of school, was discriminated against for going out to work, and failed her first marriage, and her life may be like this.
However, the appearance of a handsome guy on the Internet has given her a new lease of life.
No nose is ridiculed and frustrated everywhere
In 1996, Xu Qinqin was born in a rural family in Sichuan, a family of 6 children, she ranked old and young, when she was born, she looked very well-behaved.
In the countryside, it is perfectly normal for parents to go to farm work, and it is perfectly normal for older brothers and sisters to play and watch their younger siblings at the same time.
On the 29th day of Xu Qinqin's birth, her mother Lin Guangzhen put her in a back basket at home, and then, as usual, went to work in the field.
After about 2 hours, the eldest daughter ran over nervously and shouted loudly to Lin Guangzhen, "Mom, you go home and see, the little sister has an accident." ”
Back at home, the scene in front of him frightened Lin Guangzhen and paralyzed him to the ground, only to see Qinqin's small face blurred with blood and flesh.
After wiping the blood on her daughter's face, the situation was even worse, Qinqin's nose was completely bitten off, and the surrounding area of her right eye and even the flesh of the belt were bitten off.
Looking at the scratches on Qinqin's face, the adults could be sure that they had been bitten by rats, but no one knew how it happened, because the brother and sister ran out to play, and no one was in the bedroom.
Lin Guangzhen and her husband held the qinqin and rushed to the town health center, and the qinqin was already dying at this time.
The doctor said that the child is too young to know whether he can survive 3 months, if there is no infection and complications, he can still save a life, but even if he is saved, the future days will be difficult!
The town hospital has limited conditions, so it uses the cheapest anti-inflammatory drugs to treat the wound, and every time the medicine is changed, looking at Qinqin's poor little face, not only Lin Guangzhen cried bitterly, but also the doctors and nurses also shed tears.
After 3 months, although Qinqin survived, because she did not receive professional and timely treatment, she not only completely lost her nose, but also her right eye could not be opened due to atrophy, and her forehead, eyebrows, and lips were also left with scars.
How will her future path go, a sudden disaster, not only on Qinqin's face, leaving a very embarrassing scar, but also in her psychology, leaving an indelible trauma.
When she reached the age of school, Qinqin, like her peers, carried her school bag to study, and she walked into the school happily, but she ran home crying.
Because the classmates at school are harsh on her, and undisguised, as long as she appears on campus, there are people pointing at her everywhere, and even some naughty boys, shouting at her in public, "Look, monster", and then laughing and running away.
Qinqin is still a child, and she has to face the ridicule of her classmates every day, which is too much for her to bear, and she only went to the 6th grade of primary school and dropped out of school.
In the following years, Qinqin stayed at home, helping her parents with some farm work and housework, and her life was calm.
When I was 17 years old, I saw that the people in the village who went to school went out to work, and The qinqin also wanted to try. She is not good at finding a job in the local area, so she thinks that when she goes to the big city, whether there are more opportunities and people's minds will be more enlightened.
Therefore, Qinqin went to Guangzhou, and under the recommendation of her compatriots, a garment factory finally allowed her to work as an assembly line worker.
However, working in the factory, as she did in school, she encountered the same situation, and Qinqin was still ridiculed and discussed by her colleagues.
She came to town with hope, and within a year, she had to leave disappointed. The second year back to her hometown, Qinqin was 18 years old, in the countryside, at this age it was time to marry and have children, but who would want to marry a daughter-in-law without a nose!
Later, relatives introduced her to a marriage, a man in a neighboring village who was 8 years older than her, the family was relatively poor, could not marry a daughter-in-law, people can barely agree.
The marriage lasted only 2 years, after the marriage, she and her husband often quarreled, and every time they quarreled, his husband would talk about her appearance and scold her" "You are a monster, roll me." ”
Such words hurt people's self-esteem too much. Qinqin returned to her mother's house after the divorce, and she locked herself in the house and did not want to go out.
In order to pass the time, Qinqin goes online all day, one is to see what is happening outside, and at the same time, she can chat with netizens.
Married to a handsome guy who knew 46 days of online love
Qinqin's online name is "one three one four", the reason why she took this name, she hopes that her future life, like this set of numbers, can be simple and simple.
On January 7, 2017, a message popped up on Qinqin's QQ, which was a person with the screen name "Fix you in your heart" and wanted to add her as a friend.
Qinqin's personality has two sides, she will appear extroverted and cheerful to those who are willing to talk to her, and for those who reject her, she will become obedient.
And she and the netizen who "fixed you on the heart" were particularly close, and the two soon became friends without saying anything.
This netizen is a boy named Lin Zhouqiang, who is also from Yuechi County. When he learned about Qinqin's experience, he felt that the girl had not had a good time in these years, and he had an impulse to protect the girl.
A few days later, Lin Zhouqiang proposed that the two people meet, but Qinqin refused, she was afraid that her appearance would scare the other party. However, Lin Zhouqiang said, "I am ready, and I am prepared for the worst." On the 35th day of their acquaintance, the two men made an appointment and met the next day in the square of the town.
On February 11, Lin Zhouqiang met with Xu Qinqin. Qin Qin looked at it, the netizen was 1 meter 72 tall, and he looked very handsome, how could she be worthy of him, but Lin Zhouqiang's sincerity touched her.
Because Lin Zhouqiang did not come alone, and his sister came with him, he told his sister about Qinqin and got her support.
The sister agreed, but what about Lin Zhouqiang's parents? When they first saw the piano, they firmly disagreed.
Lin Zhouqiang's mother, Zou Yongju, said, "I am such a son, I hope he can marry a normal girl and go home." Zou Yongju and the old man bitterly persuaded their son to give up, but they were persuaded by their son.
Lin Zhouqiang told his parents about Qinqin's experience over the years, and then told the second elder, "I will not regret marrying Qinqin, I will be responsible for her, this is the fate of the two of us."
With the acquiescence of their parents, on February 21, Lin Zhouqiang and Xu Qinqin received a marriage license, and it took only 46 days from acquaintance to marriage.
They had no weddings, no blessings from friends and family, only love for each other. Qin Qin bowed her head, followed Lin Zhouqiang, and walked into Zhengjiaba Village in Yuechi County, despite this, her face was still seen by the villagers.
Since she can remember, Qinqin has known that she is different from others, and for so many years, whenever she walks on the road, she may scare some people, of course, she has long been accustomed to the surprised eyes of the people around her.
However, what she did not expect was that the people of Zhengjiaba Village would react so much to her arrival. "The Lin family has married a daughter-in-law without a nose", this number one news instantly exploded throughout the village.
People in the village talked and pointed, and some people quietly took pictures of her and put them on the Internet. Some netizens even think that the combination of the two of them is hype, in order to attract attention, want to become an Internet celebrity.
This is the biggest challenge that Lin Zhouqiang and Xu Qinqin have faced after their marriage, and various criticisms from the outside world have come. And Lin Zhouqiang believes that what he needs to do is to face it with Qinqin.
Lin Zhouqiang said that he didn't care what others said, others saw Qinqin and thought her face was particularly terrible, but he felt nothing, and he got used to watching it.
Lin Zhouqiang spoke with a thick Yuechi accent, and he called his wife "My House Qinqin". He would often say, "As long as my house is happy." Indeed, as long as he and Qinqin have a good life, why should they care about the gossip and eyes of others.
The nose is rebuilt and a new life is ushered in
Originally, Qinqin did not have any extravagant hopes for the future, but when the sudden love came, when she and the handsome guy flashed marriage, she rekindled her vision of life.
And Lin Zhouqiang is also considering how to give his wife a new life. On the third day of the two people's licenses, Lin Zhouqiang accompanied Qinqin to Chongqing Huamei Plastic Surgery and Beauty Hospital to sign up for the "Reshaping Classics" activity.
When Huamei learned about Qinqin's unfortunate encounter and love story, she immediately decided to provide her with public welfare assistance, and will rebuild Qinqin's nose and repair scar skin for free.
Huamei organized an expert seminar to develop a surgical plan for Qinqin. Since April 2017, Xu Qinqin has been receiving comprehensive treatment at Huamei.
The best source of nasal skin grafting is the frontal skin, because the skin tissue and color of the frontal part are more consistent with the nose, but Qinqin's forehead is bitten by rats more severely, and only the skin of the upper arm can be transplanted.
So every 15 days, she came to the hospital to get saline injections and expand the skin of her arms. For more than 4 months, she injected 32 injections of 800 ml of normal saline.
In April and May, every time he came to Chongqing from his hometown, Lin Zhouqiang would accompany Qinqin. In June, Lin Zhouqiang went to Hunan with his fellow villagers to work and earn money, and he used WeChat to contact Qinqin every day to understand his wife's situation.
In August, Lin Zhouqiang returned to Chongqing and has been in the hospital with his wife, chatting, playing mobile phones and playing games together.
Of course, they will also quarrel, Qinqin will play a little temper when she is homesick, Lin Zhouqiang will go out to play for a long time, and Qinqin will not be happy. However, every time there is a quarrel, Lin Zhouqiang will take the initiative to admit his mistake and then coax Qinqin to be happy.
In the eyes of Huamei medical staff, most of the time, their faces are smiling, and when the two people face each other, their eyes are full of love.
On September 11, Qinqin performed her fourth surgery on the 229th day of Huamei, and Pan Baohua, the technical director, personally performed the flap dissection surgery for her after the upper arm dilation flap full nasal reconstruction.
That is, to block the blood supply of the arm to the nose, forcing the nose to ask for blood supply to the face, if the blood supply is good, it means that the reconstructed nose of the qinqin survives.
At 7 a.m., Qin Qin was pushed into the operating room, while Lin Zhouqiang had been wandering outside the operating room. After 4 hours, the operation was over, because the anesthesia had not passed, Qinqin had not yet woken up, Lin Zhouqiang anxiously asked Dean Pan, "Is the nose alive?" ”
Dean Pan told him that the operation was a success. Lin Zhouqiang smiled excitedly, which meant that Qinqin's face had a surviving nose.
When Qinqin woke up, for several days in a row, she couldn't help but smirk alone. Lin Zhouqiang said, "Over the years, Qinqin has suffered too much, and it is not easy to survive to this day. ”
After 21 years, Xu Qinqin finally has her own nose. Although this nose is not yet perfect, it also needs to use a laser to dilute the color difference in the later stage, and it also needs to perform a flap lipid removal and thinning surgery.
The scars on her forehead also needed to be repaired, but by this time Qinqin was satisfied, and her face had changed dramatically.
From time to time, she would use her hand and gently touch her nose, and she felt that her life was no longer flawed. Lin Zhouqiang said, "No matter what she becomes, I will face her life in the future." ”
After 5 surgeries, nearly a year before and after the fine adjustment and recovery of the nose, Xu Qinqin finally ushered in a new face, her nose looks no different from ordinary people, she can no longer wear a mask, no longer walk in the crowd with her head down.
There have been many people who questioned the combination of Lin Zhouqiang and Xu Qinqin, but they supported them all the way, and proved with facts that the feelings between them are pure and not mixed with other ingredients.
Many domestic media have reported on the love story of the two people, as well as the reconstruction of the nose of the qinqin, and the netizens' attitude towards them has also made a big reversal, praising them one after another, calling "this is the real love" and "this is the rare true love".
Gradually, the people around them also began to understand and accept them, and during Qinqin's hospitalization in Chongqing Huamei, Lin Zhouqiang's friends also came to visit them and gave them support and encouragement.
In 2021, Qinqin appeared at the huamei event site, her face was full of smiles, and she excitedly handed a pennant to President Pan with her hands, which was full of "Great Doctor Jingcheng".
Dean Pan gave Qinqin a delicate swan pendant necklace, indicating that she had changed from an "ugly duckling" to a "white swan".
After 21 years of "noseless" embarrassing life, Xu Qinqin's life is blossoming all the way, coincidentally met sincere love, obtained free facial plastic surgery, and believes that her future will be better and better.
Lin Zhouqiang said that nowadays, Qinqin can also go out to work, and they are ready to have a child, so that they are like other couples, living a happy and ordinary life.
