I have always been reluctant to write this type of text, but I have seen and heard more, and I can't help but feel mixed feelings in my heart, and there are too many unspeakable feelings surging in my heart.
Zhang Junfeng is the administrator of the parking lot, his wife suffers from Alzheimer's disease, two sons and a daughter, but because the children are unable to take care of their work and family, no one can take care of them.
Zhang Junfeng, whose physical condition is not ideal, not only has to earn money to support his family, but also to take care of his sick wife, life is difficult, but because of his wife's company, he feels that it is also worth it.
Until a time when changing his wife's clothes, he found blood on his clothes, and after going to the hospital for examination, he learned that his wife had advanced cancer. Looking at his wife, who often writhed in pain in bed and relied on painkillers to maintain his life, Zhang Junfeng made a surprising decision.
Zhang Junfeng called his children home, the whole family ate a reunion dinner, after sending away the children, the old man sealed the doors and windows of the home with tape, personally fed his wife sleeping pills, and then quietly lay next to his wife.
He shook his wife's hand and said: Let's go together, don't be afraid, without your days, I can't live alone, we will be together in the next life.
This is the plot of the movie "I Love You", the heart-piercing ending, people can't bear to believe its authenticity.

Liu Yanwu, a lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Wuhan University, once went to the countryside to investigate such phenomena and witnessed the villager Lin Muwen burning paper money in a brazier for himself, then bathing and changing clothes and drinking half a bottle of pesticides.
An old man from the same village said to him: We don't have any old people here who die normally, so it may be more decent to leave like this.
I have seen a domestic movie "Happy Funeral", which tells the story of 86-year-old Lin Guoshi, who swallowed a handful of rat poison with his head up the night before he lived in the nursing home, and said goodbye to his tragic fate with the concern for his six children.
Lin Guoshi, who has no husband at the age of 35, has six children in an old house, and the oldest child is 13 years old when her husband leaves, and the youngest is only nine months. Afraid that her children would be wronged, she refused to remarry after decades of widowhood, and she grew up with six children by asking for food.
The children all have their own families, but Lin Guoshi, who lives alone in the countryside, suddenly suffered a cerebral thrombosis and fell in front of his house. Knowing that the old man could not take care of himself, several children got together to discuss.
Lin Guo's eldest son and eldest daughter have not returned home for many years in the city, and after the divorce between the fourth elder and his wife, they have abandoned their sons and do not know the end. Therefore, only the second son, the third son and the young daughter were discussed this time.
The result of the discussion was that each family paid 2,000 yuan to send the elderly to the nursing home. The old man did not agree, the children threatened and intimidated, and finally in the silence and sigh of the old man, acquiesced.

Nursing homes are not to be able to go if you want to go, and in the time of waiting in the rankings, the old man went to the second home first.
The second daughter-in-law tried to plot the old man's house, and the old man thought of the fourth son and grandson who had no foothold, and did not give it. So the days in the second son's family were spent in the second daughter-in-law's finger mulberry scolding.
The next thing to go is the old third family, the old village family conditions are better in the county, but the third daughter-in-law is disgusted with the old man, and the second daughter-in-law's finger mulberry scolding is different, she is obviously disgusted.
When eating, take a separate bowl and chopsticks for the old man, and the cleaning is also separated; a blanket is spread on the sofa as an exclusive seat for the elderly; the old man's washed handkerchief is hung on the edge of the sofa to dry, and the third daughter-in-law immediately clips it with a wooden clip and throws the handkerchief on the balcony.
When it was time to leave, the third elder said, "Mother, why are you in such a hurry to go?" But in her hand, she was busy putting the old man's shoes in front of her, and the third daughter-in-law threw all the old man's used things into the garbage bag in front of the old man.
The old man lived in the house of the younger daughter, who, although filial piety, had poor economic conditions for the family who made a living from pancake stands and grocery stores. They live together in the grocery store, when people are together, even walking around have to collide with each other, and in order to take care of the elderly, the daughter always has to collect the pancake stall in advance, the son-in-law has a lot of criticism, and the family quarrels constantly...
The old man wanted to go back to his old house, but the old man's family had already occupied the old man's house, and the old man was arranged to enter the firewood room, while the old man personally covered the old man's bed with rat poison.
In the following days, the old man successively distributed his jewelry and physical belongings to his children and grandchildren, washed his face the day before going to the nursing home, combed his white hair, looked at the family portrait, prayed to the bodhisattva and said: "The bodhisattva blesses the children to be safe and sound", and then grabbed a handful of rat poison and looked up to eat it.

There is such a scene in the film, the second brother squatted on the ground and asked the old man: Mother, what was I like when I was a child?
The old man replied: You cried a lot at that time, and I couldn't sleep all night. The second elder cried and asked: Mother, do you hate me?
The old man replied: My son, the net talks.
Lin Guo's short transition period of this month may be the longest day of her 68-year-old career, and it is even more difficult to look back than those days when she took her six children alone to beg for food, and she could not bear to look at it directly.
An old man can bring up six children, but six children can't raise an old man. There is a saying that goes like this: "There has always been only the old love the small, and where the little loves the old", only expect, this is a vain sentence.
It is only a pity that the youngest daughter of the Guo Lin clan, known as the most filial piety, when she was crushed by the burden of life, she also hinted to her mother more than once, if I reached the point of yours, I would die and would never drag my children down.
Since ancient times, it has been a matter of course for children to support their elderly parents, and since ancient times, filial piety has been a good and grandchildren, but some poignant things that have not fulfilled their filial piety have emerged in society.
Therefore, to prevent problems before they occur, everyone must be prepared for the problem of old-age care, savings, pensions, and good health.
Everyone has the day of old age, living in self-esteem. Just like at the end of the film, the turban that the second daughter-in-law took off and wore on her head was already full of white hair. When she was running the housework, she fell silently and silently, exactly like Lin Guoshi at the beginning of the film...

The world is so big, thank you, you can see me!
