The marriage of Yang Zhenning and Weng Fan was not understood by society from the beginning. People will describe them as "old and young" and "grandson love", which is not to blame for the public's questioning eyes, after all, there is a 54-year-old gap between them.
When the two insisted on getting married despite all rumors, Weng Fan was only 28 years old, while Yang Zhenning was 82 years old, even though he was a master in the physics field and a Nobel Prize winner in physics.
In the blink of an eye, 17 years have passed, time has cleared up the rumors, and the label of "purpose marriage" of the two has been removed, and they still support each other.
As Weng Fan revealed his heart in front of the media, "It's just that she chose a path that not many people take, and she admires Yang Zhenning is love even more."
"Marrying Yang Zhenning, who is 54 years older", she has slowly changed from a "foolish person" in the mouth of the public to a real winner, with her husband to accompany her, people's respect, and spiritual nourishment.
1. Young and old match, true love is no hindrance
Yang Zhenning, with his years of hard work and attainments, has become a senior scholar with a certain status in the field of physics.
In 1957, he partnered with Tsung-Dao Lee and won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on "non-conservation" physics. His scientific and technological knowledge and personal reputation are admirable.
He has served in many prestigious universities, such as Tsinghua University, Chinese Academy of Sciences, etc., and has trained a class of aspiring and talented logistics scholars for the country during his teaching period.
It has taken more than 50 years to cultivate and recruit talents for national scientific research and technology, and to promote academic exchanges between China and foreign countries.
His contributions to the mainland are also outstanding, and he also has a part in the research and development of hydrogen bombs and nuclear weapons.
And Weng Fan is one of Yang Zhenning's students in Taoli World.
At first, they didn't have too many ripples, and then they chose to walk together, completely because they fell in love over time, admired each other, and matched their souls.
The first time the two met was at the first Chinese Physics Academic Conference of Shantou University, when Yang Zhenning also took Mrs. Yang to attend the exchange meeting, and Weng Fan was the staff who received them.
As the guide of this time, she is young but unassuming, gentle and courteous, serious and responsible for the reception work, Yang Zhenning and his wife also have a good impression of her, and even left contact information for each other after talking.
Later, by chance, under the traction of Weng Fan's teacher, she was fortunate to be able to teach Yang Zhenning, a master of physics, and under the influence of his knowledge, she couldn't help but be full of respect for his wisdom and personality.
Later, Mrs. Yang died, and Yang Zhenning was devastated by widowhood. Weng Fan also often encouraged Yang Zhenning, and the two only found each other's intentions after getting along for a long time and decided to join hands in this marriage.
In their opinion, in front of the person they love, there are no so-called specific conditions, and there is no hindrance to age and status.
Life is like a white horse, and you can't wait and miss it slowly. The two simply want to stay together, no matter how unacceptable the arguments from the outside world are, since they have decided to be together, they will face these "difficulties" together.
Some people think that they have ideas, warmth, and persistence, and some people mistakenly think that Yang Zhenning is coveting Weng Fan's youthful appearance, and Weng Fan is also trying to use Yang Zhenning to improve his social status and attract wealth.
This "old and young" story is a folk talk, and it is also all the stories of the second half of their lives. They have spent more than ten years together through thick and thin, making people look at their "cross-age marriage" with admiration.

Yang Zhenning also said the same, and bluntly said that his life in the future is closely related to Weng Fan, they not only love each other, but also support friends.
In the eyes of outsiders, they have right and wrong, are very worldly, and have conflicts of interest, but in fact, they only want to be dependent on each other in the future, and they are not afraid of thorns.
In terms of knowledge, although Weng Fan is far inferior to Yang Zhenning's academic attainments, she is also a person who constantly urges herself to improve, and has the same enthusiasm for exploration in physics.
Weng Fan is a stubborn person, or she doesn't want people to call her a woman who is close to Yang Zhenning, so she repeatedly graduated from Shantou University with excellent grades and was admitted to a prestigious school to deepen her knowledge.
During her master's degree, she specialized in translation, under the tutelage of Professor Zhong Weihe, who was a great expert in "simultaneous interpretation", vice president of the Translators Association of China, and the first president of Whampoa Academy.
Under his tutelage, Weng Fan's research in translation studies has progressed day by day, and he has worked as a translator to translate the theme song of "Reunion" for the 16th Guangzhou Asian Games. She studied both English and French, and her master's thesis was encouraged and recognized by her professors.
After marriage, he also wrote an all-English novel, which recorded in detail the acquaintance between the two before and after marriage, called "Yang Zhenning, My Husband".
Later, under the influence of Yang Zhenning, he also showed his love and talent for physics, and turned to this place to study architecture, and became a research member of several national scientific research and technology projects.
Yang Zhenning is not bound by his age, he has been running between physics education and scientific research all year round, and has made great achievements in teaching and research results, and has made personal contributions to the cause of national development.
For many years, discussing academic knowledge with each other, they not only have wisdom, but also empathy. The couple did not retreat because of the public opinion generated before and after the union, but on the contrary, they also wanted to use their own advantages to achieve each other and cultivate generations of people who will contribute to the country and society.
And after getting married, Weng Fan supported Yang Zhenning's idea of selfless dedication and donated part of the common assets of the two, paving a way for poor students and setting up a hard backing for aspiring educational institutions.
It can be seen that they have also gone through a series of tests of each other's character and talent, so as to form respect and admiration, and then understand and admire, and finally decide to support each other for the rest of their lives.
It seems to be confused, but it is actually a winner
Yang Zhenning and Weng Fan have lived together for nearly 20 years, and in his company, bit by bit of the past is vivid, she not only has the wealth of an ideal life, but also shares spiritual knowledge.

She admitted frankly that she couldn't hide from her heart, and it wasn't impulsive, so she went to Yang Zhenning and joined hands with him.
After all, any decision made by an adult must have its consequences, and nothing is exempt.
She is also constantly pursuing what she wants, listening to her heart, trying her best to fight for it without violating the moral code, and using actions to prove that her choice is correct.
We have never stopped, even if we don't understand it. Now, speaking with the facts, she has really become a winner. This is also indispensable for Yang Zhenning's active and frequent positive relationships as a man.
He is "old and old-hearted", humorous and wise, active in mentality, steady and reliable in dealing with people, just a little bit of Weng Fan fell in love with him, it is the result of fate and artificial positive.
In 2004, they held a wedding in Shantou and entered the palace of marriage, and they have been together for 17 years, telling whether everything about this "new" marriage is really worth it. Is Weng Fan really a confused girl?
In fact, for this couple, they are independent individuals, with their own ideals, practices, attainments, and status, but they are also happy, have each other's support, and have common thoughts, topics, and hobbies.
No matter how suitable and in love with each other is, their married life will be tested and run-in by firewood, rice, oil, salt, and trivial things in life. Isn't it the most important thing for husband and wife to be of one heart and one mind and support each other?
