Li Mingjing is a capable person, stonemasons, carpenters, beeskeepers are all good hands, his wife Li Xiujing is 74 years old, a famous tall and sharp person in three miles and five townships, two sons are diligent and generous, and a pair of children under the knees are also separated from each other, and the little life is moist and happy. The weather is unpredictable, the wife who has always loved to dress up cleanly fainted in one morning in the spring of 2004, after the emergency rescue of Xingtai City Hospital, life was saved, but became a slow walking nerd, and later because of the fall caused by thigh fracture and paralysis, seven years later, the condition worsened again and aphasia, the face was seriously deformed, the hands cowered, daily life could not take care of itself at all, eating, urinating and defecating all depended on Li Mingjing to serve.

In order to take care of his sick and paralyzed wife, Li Mingjing gave up his beekeeping career and went out to work as a contractor to concentrate on accompanying his lover. The children asked to take turns to take care of their mothers, but he wouldn't let them, and asked them to do their own thing, which was 17 years.

As the saying goes, there is no filial piety in front of the bed for a long time, the same is true between husband and wife, and it is not always possible to stay at home for a long time, and Li Mingjing is an idle person, in order to subsidize the cost of seeking medical treatment and medicine, Li Mingjing bought a tricycle, went up the mountain every day to manage chestnut trees and crops in the field, and carried his wife to the car and pulled. Year after year, he repeated this circle of movements every day, getting up early to cook on the fire, wiping his wife's, dressing and feeding, driving a troika when he went to work in the field, putting his wife on the seat, finding a flat place to stop, and while working, he had to look at his wife for fear of falling. Winter is the most difficult season, and it is very difficult for the wife to pull the feces into the cotton pants, change clothes, wash and dry. In order not to let the sick wife get cold, the stove will be burned vigorously, change clothes and quickly wash and dry, in case of rain and snow, prepare a few more cotton pants, and bake wet cotton pants around the fire. For 17 years he has been like this, devoting all his love to the care of his sick wife.

There is no hope for his wife's condition to improve, and the difficult road that Li Mingjing faces is still very long.....

For his own living situation, he never said bitter and tired, he had to carry it himself, the village cadres took the initiative to handle the minimum security assistance and care for the disabled in accordance with the policy, often went to the door to offer condolences, called on the cadres and the masses to learn from Li Mingjing, and the villagers also extended a helping hand, often sending some vegetables and delicious food. At the Magou Village Chongyang Festival Respect for the Elderly Dumpling Banquet held since 2019, the village cadres specially delivered the dumplings to the bed, and he was moved to tears.

People eat grains and grains, and no one dares to guarantee that the iron hoop will be on their heads. He did not complain about his wife's illness, only resigned himself to fate, buried the pain in his heart, did not show a little sadness in front of his wife, but only sighed behind his back. He said: "It is not easy for a husband and wife to roll and crawl for a lifetime, and now that they are sick, they cannot ignore it, as long as I can move, I must not let my wife suffer." That's what he said, and he did even more.

Li Mingjing inherited the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation with the kindness and kindness of an ordinary person, demonstrated with practical actions the peasants' hearts with boundless love, and the cadres and masses in The city and Jitou Township were all touched by the true feelings of the husband and wife clinging to each other's lives.
