In May 2015, in this passionate season, a loving couple in the bustling city of Shanghai, Han Shijun and Zhang Lijun, were enjoying their ordinary but warm life.
These two college lovers finally entered the marriage hall in 2014 and sailed into a new route in life together.
However, misfortune always seems to come quietly. At this moment, a routine medical examination shattered the happy dream of this loving couple without warning.
Zhang Lijun, 26, was diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer during a prenatal check-up, and the doctor told them solemnly: "Given that the patient is six weeks pregnant, we may need to give up the baby in order to minimize the pain."
Hearing this cruel news, Han Shijun collapsed to the ground like a lightning strike, and Zhang Lijun also burst into tears.
Faced with such a difficult choice, Zhang Lijun made a shocking decision after careful consideration. She clasped her husband's hands and said with a firm gaze, "I understand that this is a path to death, but this child is our blood link, and perhaps our last hope."
Although Han Shijun's heart was full of fear, seeing his wife's determined eyes, he could only silently pray that everything would get better, and then nodded vigorously in agreement.
As a result, Zhang Lijun began a long and arduous journey to fight cancer, and while enduring severe pain and morning sickness, she never gave up her desire to live.
And Han Shijun has become a solid support in her life, taking care of all the needs of his wife with all his heart and soul to get through the difficulties with his wife in his own unique way.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it has come to April 2021.
This news was like a sudden cold wave, which instantly sparked a heated discussion on the Internet. Many netizens who had given Han Shijun and his late wife Zhang Lijun selfless help expressed their disappointment and anger.
Some people even accused Han Shijun of passing on the "xiaolongbao" of the two children to others, which was too rash and lacked human touch. These remarks were sharp and harsh, as if they were going to put Han Shijun to death.
In the face of malicious speculation and unprovoked attacks on the Internet, Han Shijun was full of anger in his heart, but more helpless and confused. As a strong and upright man, he never imagined that he would be subjected to such serious slander and insult.
In order to preserve his dignity, he resolutely decided to use legal means to request a lawyer to conduct an in-depth investigation.
As the investigation deepened, all kinds of rumors about "succession" were completely shattered in an instant! It turned out that in the years after Zhang Lijun's death, Han Shijun alone shouldered the heavy trust and took on the heavy responsibility of raising "Xiaolongbao".
However, the loss of his beloved wife was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him, which made him fall into a deep haze and could not extricate himself, and he was extremely depressed and depressed several times.
Seeing his companion in such pain, relatives and friends couldn't bear it, so they secretly took "Xiaolongbao" to his side to take care of him, hoping that he could get rid of the haze as soon as possible and regain the courage to live.
As for the so-called rumors such as "passing on to my sister", it is really nonsense, because the couple does not have any blood related brothers and sisters.
Faced with the choice of life and death, Zhang Lijun showed admirable strong will and perseverance. Although her body was suffering from chemotherapy and pregnancy every day, she always believed in it and never gave up.
And her husband Han Shijun is always by her side, taking care of his wife and unborn children.
In order to document the extraordinary process of the birth of this new life full of vitality, a documentary project called "The World" came into being.
The crew of the film crew meticulously documented the hardships that Zhang Lijun went through during her pregnancy: taking a lot of medication every day to control her condition, coping with violent morning sickness, and enduring heart-rending pain in her abdomen...... Everything she paid made every audience present moved and burst into tears.
Once, Zhang Lijun was in severe pain and had to undergo anesthetic injections to relieve the pain. However, doctors warn that anesthetic drugs can have adverse effects on fetal development and even lead to addiction.
After learning of this situation, Zhang Lijun refused painkillers without hesitation, she supported her weak body with great perseverance, gritted her teeth and endured the severe pain and torture that ordinary people could not imagine.
In December 2015, Zhang Lijun was sent to the operating room, and after a difficult delivery, a baby boy was finally born.
Although the newborn weighed only two pounds at birth and his lungs were not yet fully developed, his tenacious vitality shocked and moved everyone present.
When looking at the immature face of the young son in her arms, Zhang Lijun couldn't help crying with joy. She carefully caressed the baby's skin, pouring all the strength of her body into kissing the newborn.
In the last moments of her life, she tried her best to squeeze out the strength to say to her husband Han Shijun: "My dear, our son has finally come to this world!" Hearing the news, Han Shijun's whole body trembled violently, he was so excited that he couldn't express it, he could only hold his wife's hand tightly, feeling the temperature she left by his side, and the eyes of both of them were full of tears of happiness.
Unfortunately, fate is always so unforgiving. Shortly after the birth of "Xiao Long Bao", Zhang Lijun's condition deteriorated dramatically. After a detailed diagnosis by doctors, they told Han Shijun a cruel reality with solemn faces - Zhang Lijun has spread Indian cells in her body, which is an extremely rare and incurable cancer.
Facing the threat of death, Zhang Lijun's expression was surprisingly calm. She seems to have seen through life and death and accepted this cruel reality. She resolutely made the last decision in her life: to give up treatment, choose to leave the hospital temporarily, go to the outside world, and enjoy the beauty of this world.
So, the couple, who love each other dearly, set off on their final journey. They walked along the country roads with the sun shining gently on them, they felt the majesty of nature as they looked at the rolling mountains, and they waved over the lakes and admired the flowers blooming on the shore.
Every scenery makes Zhang Lijun feel extremely happy.
Seeing the long-lost smile on his wife's face, Han Shijun had mixed feelings in his heart. He deeply understood that this was his wife's last wish, and it was also her last blessing for the life she had left.
Although there is always an end to the journey, the memory of life will always remain in people's hearts. On the day of the first birthday of "Xiaolongbao", Zhang Lijun quietly left this world.
On her deathbed, she hugged her husband and children affectionately, entrusted the "xiaolongbao" to Han Shijun, and then gently said to their mother and son, "Have a safe journey", and quietly closed her eyes.
Zhang Lijun's departure is undoubtedly the biggest blow in Han Shijun's life. The pain of losing his beloved made him wash his face with tears all day long, unable to extricate himself.
He treasured his wife's relics intact, often recalled her voice and smile, and endless thoughts and attachments came to his heart.
Zhang Lijun's departure undoubtedly became the first thunder of Han Shijun's life for the rest of his life, causing his world to collapse in an instant. Losing this most brilliant pearl in life, Han Shijun was immersed in grief all day long, like tears washing his soul and unable to extricate himself.
He treasures the dust left by his beloved wife in the world, as if guarding her soul, and every item carries endless thoughts and attachments.
In this way, Han Shijun spent a long year in the abyss of loneliness and pain. However, fate opened a window for him at this time.
One day, a nurse in a hospital met him by chance, and when she saw that the once heroic Han Shijun was now thin and haggard, and her spirit was sluggish, her heart was filled with deep sympathy.
She gradually walked into the depths of Han Shijun's heart with gentle and watery care, and soothed his wounded soul with simple and unpretentious words. At first, Han Shijun was dismissive of the stranger's appearance, believing that she could not understand the great pain she had endured.
However, the nurse did not back down, but cared for Han Shijun and his child "Xiaolongbao" with firmer determination and patience.
Gradually, the wounds in Han Shijun's heart began to heal, and the haze gradually dissipated.
With the passage of time, the affection between the two became deeper and deeper, and they went through that dark period together, and finally entered the palace of marriage.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Lijun's parents not only did not oppose this marriage, but were ecstatic for Han Shijun's courage to regain his life.
They have witnessed countless times when Han Shijun wept silently in front of his wife's relics, affectionately praying to his lover in heaven and praying for eternal peace in heaven.
Now that Han Shijun finally has a new family and life pillar, he will definitely cherish this hard-won happiness and pour all his love into "Xiaolongbao".
After months of wind and rain, this turmoil has finally been quelled by the power of truth. In the face of ironclad evidence, all those rumor-mongers who maliciously slandered and confused the public were spared, bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes, promising to think twice before acting in the future.
And Han Shijun has also let go of his past grievances and decided to start a new journey in life. Now, he lives a harmonious and warm life with his new wife and the "Xiaolongbao" family of three, enjoying a happy and happy time.
Whenever he is alone, Han Shijun always can't help but recall the beautiful and moving voice and smile of his late beloved wife Zhang Lijun. He would carefully sort out all the relics she left behind, gently touching the remaining warm breath on them, and his eyes showed deep sorrow.
However, he knew that only by living could he truly honor the memory of his deceased wife, and believed that she would surely protect their family in heaven for happiness and well-being.
With a new family as a harbor for the soul, Han Shijun will do his best to care for the cute "Xiao Long Bao" and carefully educate this resilient child in a unique way.
And those hardships and hardships will also be transformed into the motivation and spur of life, leading the whole family to be fearless and chase the warmth and joy of the world.
