1. Although the age of 90 has reached the twilight of his life, his expectations for life have not stopped. In this celebratory wedding ceremony, the noisy sound of gongs and drums, fluttering flags and the joyful atmosphere all tell stories of joy.
The three couples walked hand in hand on the red carpet, their faces full of sweet smiles and endless happiness.
In the front hall, an elderly man held a brush and trembled to write a couplet - "Six dragons and phoenixes each become a good couple, triplets get married", and the horizontal batch is "joyful door". This old man is Zhao Zhenzhi, the grandfather of the triplets, who has entered his nineties.
When he saw the slightly shy appearance of his three grandsons in front of the bride, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction in his heart. He came to the three of them on crutches and blessed them affectionately: "I am extremely proud of you, and today I have finally fulfilled my last wish.
He once hoped that his children would be able to get into college, and then that they would be able to build happy families, but now these wishes have come true. Zhao Zhenzhi paused for a moment, then leaned over and whispered in the ear of his eldest grandson Zhao Lingxiao: "However, I still hope to be able to hug my great-grandson, the three of you have to come on!" ”。
Hearing this, the old man laughed heartily, and his face was full of happiness. In the last stage of his life, his greatest wish was to be able to hold his great-grandson.
2. Tell about the grand occasion of the triplets getting married on the same day
It was a September 2019 day, and the sun was shining brightly and shining on the whole village. On both sides of the narrow village road, many curious children gathered, and they probed their heads to watch the three red Mercedes cars slowly driving in the middle of the road.
The sound of firecrackers is coming and going, and red debris is flying in the air, which is very lively.
The convoy finally stopped in front of a simple old house, and the first person to step out of the door was the bride Xiaofang in a red dress. She shyly held the arm of the groom Zhao Lingyun, with a happy smile on her face.
Subsequently, another pair of newcomers, Xiaohong and Zhao Lingxiao, also got out of the car, and finally Xiaoli and Zhao Linghan.
The three couples wore gorgeous dresses, which looked particularly dazzling in the sunlight. Their faces were filled with the sweetness and joy of young people when they fell in love, which deeply touched the parents of the Zhao family and the relatives and friends in the village who were standing on the side of the road.
"I used to just hope that one day I would see my three sons start a family, and I would be satisfied." The elders of the village also came to congratulate them.
The three newlyweds walked hand in hand into the ancestral house of the Zhao family, and the wedding scene reverberated with bursts of jubilant gongs and drums and colorful flags fluttering, and the whole atmosphere was full of warm and festive atmosphere, as if condensing the expectations and blessings of the whole village.
Everyone present was fascinated by this grand wedding, including the children who were waiting on both sides of the village road, and they were also deeply attracted by this sweet and unique ceremony, and they all stopped to watch.
3. Describe the difficult process of hard work and hard study of parents and three newcomers in their youth
In this grand wedding, the Zhao family was full of joy and immersed in happiness. However, only they know how much bitterness and hardship are hidden behind this happiness.
From an early age, triplets grow up in a difficult environment. Their father, Zhao Zhenhua, has been working hard for many years and rarely returns home. The heavy responsibilities of the family are all on the shoulders of her mother Zhou Qinghua.
Due to the family's extremely difficult financial situation, Zhou Qinghua was unable to buy even the most basic stationery and schoolbags for the children, so she could only sew schoolbags for the three brothers from old clothes, and the remaining fabrics were used to make children's clothes.
The Zhao family's life is so difficult to maintain. In order to ease the burden on the family, the triplets began working in a nearby glove factory after graduating from junior high school. Despite their young age, casual workers and meager salaries, they never complained or backed down.
The monthly income will be handed over to their mother Zhou Qinghua without reservation.
"It's not much, but it's all earned by our hard work." The eldest brother, Zhao Lingxiao, smiled and assured his mother, "Mom, as long as we have a stable income in the future, we will no longer have to worry about tuition fees."
Seeing that her sons always maintained a neat and diligent image, Zhou Qinghua's eyes flashed with tears. She was determined to do everything she could to support her three children in a good education in order to change their current poverty.
Fortunately, the Zhao family also has Zhao Zhenzhi, an elder who has been a teacher for 30 years. He taught the triplets not only to be honest and upright, but also to be diligent and studious. In order to motivate his grandchildren, Grandpa Zhao even adopted the "radicalization method" - he quietly told Zhao Lingxiao: "You have to be careful, Lingyun Linghan's studies are quite good."
At the same time, he said to the other two children, "You have to come on, you must not be overtaken by Ling Xiao."
As we all know, the power of motivation is endless! Since then, the triplets' academic performance has improved as quickly as if they were standing out, winning first, second and even third places in their class repeatedly.
However, it is admirable that they did not hesitate to give all their income to their mothers, even though they received a negligible monthly salary.
Seeing their mother's thrift for the sake of their children's education, the triplets were filled with gratitude and motivation, knowing that only by passing the college entrance examination could they change the family's financial situation and repay their mother's nurturing kindness.
Fourth, describe in detail the whole process of the three of them achieving continuous excellent results in the college entrance examination, being admitted to well-known universities, and receiving funding from all walks of life
After more than ten years of unremitting efforts, the triplets finally ushered in a bumper harvest in the 2009 college entrance examination.
"The hard work of the three of you over the years has finally paid off, and Mom is extremely proud of you!" Zhou Qinghua burst into tears with excitement, hugged her three sons tightly, and her eyes flashed with endless pride.
When Zhao Zhenzhi's grandfather saw the five big characters of "China University of Petroleum" printed on the admission letters of his three grandsons, he was even more excited and danced, and his joy was beyond words.
This astonishing news spread quickly in the surrounding villages and attracted a lot of media attention. Countless reporters and photographers flocked to the courtyard of the Zhao family, scrambling to interview the "magical triplets".
"Your scores are amazing! The score of consecutive numbers is a once-in-a-lifetime piece of good luck! A journalist exclaimed.
"It's not easy to be admitted to the same prestigious school at the same time, not to mention that the scores of your three brothers are still consecutive numbers, it's a miracle!" Another journalist was equally shocked.
Facing the camera, the three brothers shared word by word: "We have been determined to go to the same university since we were children. "Yes, but I really didn't expect such an amazing result.
"We were able to cooperate so tacitly because of the earnest teaching of my grandfather and parents."
The reporters were deeply moved by the humility and courtesy of the three people, and sent their best wishes, looking forward to their future road getting wider and broader. However, at this moment, a middle-aged man in a school uniform suddenly walked into the courtyard, breaking the warm atmosphere of the scene.
"Hello everyone, I am Liu Yancong, director of the Academic Affairs Office of China University of Petroleum."
When the Zhao family and the reporters present heard this, they were all shocked, and their eyes widened and their faces were full of surprise. Even the reporters who were originally gathered in the courtyard were attracted by this sudden news and asked for details.
The shocking fact was revealed, and the college entrance examination admissions team at China University of Petroleum had insight into the special challenges faced by the triplets long before the college entrance examination. They not only uphold the principle of fairness and transparency in the selection of talents, but also hope to provide appropriate help to this pair of "conjoined triplets" who are relentless in pursuing their dreams.
"As a well-known institution of higher learning, we not only value the academic excellence of our three students, but also hope to sponsor more students from poor families who excel academically to successfully complete their studies.
"Therefore, under the same conditions, we will give priority to the admission of three students."
When the Zhao family heard about the policy arrangements of China University of Petroleum for poor students, they immediately expressed their deep gratitude to Liu Yancong. However, just when everyone thought that it was enough to be taken care of by the policy, there was ecstatic news from the scene.
"As far as I know, your family is really living in poverty, I wonder if you need some financial assistance?" A middle-aged lady walked out of the crowd and asked directly to the point. It turned out that she was Fan Xixia, a villager from Singapore.
After learning about the family status of the triplets, Aunt Fan has already silently funded them with strong local feelings and selfless love. Now, knowing that the three of them have finally made a major breakthrough after years of hard work, Aunt Fan also appeared excitedly and told the story of what she had secretly taken care of.
"As early as a few years ago, I had already handed over 50,000 yuan in cash to Sister Zhou, hoping to fund the college tuition of your three brothers." Aunt Fan said affectionately, "It's just that I haven't been able to see the three of you, so it's inconvenient to mention this matter in person."
It turned out that in the most difficult years of the triplets, Aunt Fan Xixia had quietly reached out to help, but the Zhao family had no idea about it. At this moment, when they heard these touching words, they couldn't help but choke with tears in their eyes.
"Thank you very much, Auntie! Without your generosity, our three brothers would not have been able to achieve their dreams! Zhao Lingyun held Aunt Fan's hands tightly and said silently.
After listening to these heartfelt words, everyone present was moved to tears. For a while, the atmosphere of the scene became extremely warm, and the whole village was immersed in endless care and good wishes for the triplets.
