Preface
In 2019, Hubei Satellite TV's famous cultural program "Wonderful Chinese Characters" kicked off a new season. On this high-profile stage, three young people greeted the audience's attention with their shining figures.
The spotlight focused on them, and the three of them straightened up, looking confident and calm. Although after three rounds of fierce competition, they were only one step away from winning the championship, but they did not feel the slightest loss.
On the contrary, the youthful vigor and high-spirited spirit have completely convinced every audience in the audience.
In the seats of relatives and friends, we saw a woman with an old face but solemn eyes, she was the mother of these three outstanding young people -- Ms. Xu Zhenqin.
As she stared at the children on stage, tears welled up in her eyes.
Yes, this ordinary peasant woman has fought alone for more than ten years in exchange for today's glory!
Once lived happily ever after
Three years have passed, and their love has gradually borne fruit - the birth of a pair of triplet boys has brought bursts of laughter to this originally poor little family.
The lively and cute appearance of the babies seems to be angels sent from heaven, giving great comfort and encouragement to the new parents. Some people even praise that this must be a model of a "happy family".
However, fate often likes to play tricks on people's hearts. Just when everyone thought that the family would live happily ever after, a sudden change dragged this originally harmonious family into the abyss.
Two years later, Lu was diagnosed with diabetes and heart disease, and his family was in danger, and his life hung by a thread. In order to support her family and pay for expensive medical expenses, Xu Zhenqin had to go out to work full-time and support her family with her own hands.
噩耗突来
Lu's condition is getting worse day by day, and his health is getting worse. In order to take care of her seriously ill husband, Xu Zhenqin runs between housework, part-time work and the hospital all day long, and she carefully hides the sadness in her heart, for fear of revealing even the slightest pain in front of her children.
Only in the dark night did she dare to cry alone in the bed.
Looking at her husband's increasingly haggard and bloodless face, Xu Zhenqin's heart was like a knife. She exchanged her hard-earned money for the other party's precious but slim life, hoping that he could recover soon.
But fate never seems to have appreciated the hardships and helplessness of mortals.
In the end, in the heart-rending wails of Xu Zhenqin and the three children, Lu left this world silently. The white and flawless corridor of the hospital witnessed the destruction of this family, and the once warm little home was shattered in an instant.
Faced with the death of her loved ones, Xu Zhenqin's heart was like ashes, she looked at the immature faces of her three children with tears in her eyes, and realized that they would forever lose their father's love and care from now on.
Overnight, Xu Zhenqin seemed to be aging by more than ten years, she began to become reticent, and there was nowhere to vent the pain in her heart. As the only breadwinner in the family, she had to go out into society alone and take on all the housework and livelihood burdens.
Mother fought tenaciously
After losing the support of her husband, Xu Zhenqin seemed to have extinguished the fire of life as a whole person. But every time she looked into the childlike innocence of her three children, she felt a surge of strength and determination in her heart that she had never seen before.
Due to her limited academic qualifications, Xu Zhenqin could only barely find a manual housekeeping job. During the day, she put down her housework and went out to take care of the hygiene of other people's homes; At night, she set up a stall on the corner of the street to help her family by selling these homemade delicacies.
As a single mother raising three children alone, Xu Zhenqin's responsibilities can be described as heavy. But she never complained about it, not even the slightest hint of exhaustion.
The reason is that she understands that if she gives up, she and her children will become homeless orphans and widows. Therefore, she could only grit her teeth and desperately persevere.
The heavy living arrangement made Xu Zhenqin exhausted and almost out of breath. But every time I saw my three sons grow up healthily, all the fatigue seemed to disappear.
Gradually, the children also learned to share the housework, and even did some things beyond their age, and the eldest son took on the responsibility of being the "pillar" of the family.
In Wuhan Tiesiyuan Middle School, the three brothers have won the reputation of "other people's children" with their outstanding results. The youngest Lu Wenying has remained in the top three in his grade all year round, and Lu Wenyi won the championship in the National Mind Games.
Despite her poor family, Xu Zhenqin carefully created a warm living environment with her skillful hands, and inspired the infinite inner strength of the children with her actions.
Despite the fact that the three brothers have never received additional after-school tutoring, their dedication to learning can be said to have broken down the barriers of all "children of rich families". Xu Zhenqin believes that the achievement of the results depends on the children's own diligence and hard work, and she never exerts too much pressure, but gives them full freedom so that the children can calm down and focus on learning.
Car accidents lead to tragedy
The hardships of life always seem to be beaten by those who have ill fate. Just when Xu Zhenqin's family thought that they could live a peaceful life, the ruthless tricks of fate came again.
In the early morning of September 2016, Xu Zhenqin was ready to go out to set up a stall as usual to maintain her family's income. But a sudden phone call completely shattered her originally quiet life.
The caller was from the traffic police department, and they informed Lu Wencheng that he was in a car accident on the way to school, and his legs were injured and bleeding.
When Xu Zhenqin rushed to the hospital, she saw her youngest son lying on the hospital bed with a pale face and weakness, she rushed forward desperately and hugged him tightly, crying bitterly, tears rolling down wantonly.
But fate doesn't seem to be going to let the family go. Less than a month later, Xu Zhenqin herself suffered a car accident and fractured her leg on the spot and had to be hospitalized again.
She is in great pain, and she is also stretched thin about the whereabouts of her two eldest sons in the family, and the future is uncertain.
The division commander helps
During Xu Zhenqin's hospitalization, she received great help from her three children's schools and teachers, which warmed her heart on the verge of despair. Senior teacher Zhang Jurong took the initiative to visit and express his condolences.
He took on the role of temporary guardian of his three children, helping to finance medical and living expenses, and generously helping the family through the difficult times.
The school has also waived the cost of meals and miscellaneous expenses for the three brothers many times, and has made efforts to ease the burden of life for them. However, although Xu Zhenqin was poor, she always refused to accept too much charity.
She firmly believes that as long as she is willing to put in the effort, she will one day regain a happy life.
Teacher Zhang Jurong sincerely admires Ms. Xu Zhenqin's perseverance and optimistic attitude towards life. He saw the unabashed confidence and vitality on the mother's face, and was deeply infected and inspired by the positive energy within her.
In order to help the family tide over the difficulties, Mr. Zhang personally called on his colleagues to buy the lo-mei food produced by Xu Zhenqin and stretched out his warm and powerful hands.
In the tenacious body of this ordinary peasant woman, Teacher Zhang saw the greatness of her mother. It is this great maternal love that has supported Xu Zhenqin all the way and overcome many difficulties.
With the encouragement and help of her teachers and colleagues, Xu Zhenqin regained the courage and hope to overcome her fate.
Hard work pays off
After all kinds of hardships and tribulations, in 2018, when the three brothers ushered in an important turning point in their lives - the high school entrance examination, they made Ms. Xu Zhenqin let go of years of hard work and sorrow with excellent results, and regained her happy smile.
In this important exam related to the future of youth in Wuhan, Lu Wenyi and Lu Wenzhen scored as high as 465 and 469 points respectively, and were successfully admitted to a well-known local key middle school, stepping on the ladder to a better future.
Although the eldest son, Lu Wenhong, had slightly lower grades than his two younger brothers due to personal reasons, he also got his wish to attend a good high school. The third brother, Lu Wenchen, even told his mother that he would make up for the regret of the high school entrance examination in the next high school stage.
The outstanding performance of the children in this poor family undoubtedly proves their excellent qualities of diligence and hard work, and also brings supreme glory and pride to this ordinary family, like three bright and dazzling pearls illuminating the way home.
In 2019, the three brothers shined on the stage of Hubei Satellite TV's famous cultural programs, although they were only one step away from winning the championship, they have won the applause and praise of the audience.
The three affectionately said that all their efforts are to give their mothers more opportunities tomorrow and repay their mothers for their nurturing grace with actions.
Write a new chapter
At the scene of the show, Xu Zhenqin looked at the shining figures of the three children on the stage, tears rolling in her eyes. As an ordinary peasant woman, she has gone through the darkest stage of her life, but she has never been crushed by the tricks of fate.
She overcame obstacles alone, and with her loneliness and selfless dedication to her family, she finally survived those long and difficult years. Now, watching her sons exude youthful vitality on the stage, she deeply feels that her efforts have finally borne fruit.
The vicissitudes of time have left a mark on Xu Zhenqin's face, but her eyes are full of pride and happiness. When Xu Zhenqin covered her slightly trembling lips with her hands, others noticed that the strong mother was smiling shyly.
Yes, at this moment, her heart cried with supreme joy and pride.
In the end, Xu Zhenqin couldn't hide her excitement, stepped forward, and hugged her three sons on the stage tightly. The family hugged each other and cried, crying with joy, and did not want to be separated for a long time.
They are about to write a new chapter in their lives and paint a more brilliant future together.
Mother's love is great, and it is this great power that supports Xu Zhenqin to move forward all the way, and finally exchange for a happy life after experiencing the difficulties and dangers of life. She used practical actions to interpret a mother's determination and courage to never give up and never stick to it.
