More than half a century ago, in Zhongshan Ancient Town, Jiangjin, Chongqing, he was 6 years old and she was 16 years old.
On that day, she married into the village, and during that time the little boy's front teeth just fell out.
Listen to the old man, as long as you let the bride touch the teeth, the lack of new teeth can soon grow white and aligned.
So he ran to stop the palanquin and asked the bride to touch it, but the moment the curtain was lifted, he was stunned and simply stunned.
At that moment, he secretly swore that he would take such a beautiful woman as a daughter-in-law in the future.
Fast forward 10 years, the woman gave birth to four children, the family is happy, but the weather is unpredictable, accompanied by 10 years of husband suddenly died of acute meningitis, she is only 26 years old, became a widow.
What is worse is that the mind of that era is closed, the mother-in-law thinks that she is a husband, and her relatives are far away, and she can only pull four children alone.
Every day he struggled by picking mushrooms and weaving straw shoes, which was seen by the little boy who used to be, and now he has grown into a 16-year-old boy who wants to help, but he is afraid of gossip.
Until one day, the woman accidentally fell into the water with the child on her back, and when the bullet broke out, the boy rushed to save their mother and son.
In the next 4 years, the boy often helped her carry water and chop wood to do housework, and the widow was not much in front of the door, and the exchanges between the two caused countless gossip.
In order not to let the woman be hurt by the bad words, one morning in August 1956, the boy took the woman and her four children to hide in the isolated mountains.
Here, they burned earth to build houses, opened up land and farmed land, and although they lived in poverty, they lived an exceptionally happy life.
But there are cliffs everywhere, and in order to make it easier for women to go down the mountain, the boys began to chisel down the stairs one step at a time in the rugged mountains.
This chisel is 50 years, a total of 6208 steps have been chiseled, which is the famous love ladder.
In 2007, the boy was 70 years old, and one day at 3 a.m., he got up as usual to see the crops, and when he returned, he suddenly planted his head next to the bed.
The old lady hurriedly jumped up and shook him, the old man still did not make a sound, she struggled to settle the old man, and immediately picked up the flashlight to go down the mountain alone.
This was the first time she had walked alone, the old man had never trusted her to go alone, I don't know how long it took, how many times she fell, she was injured all over her body, and finally came to the bottom of the mountain with difficulty and knocked on the door of her son's house.
The son immediately took the man up the mountain, carried his father down, and delivered him to the hospital. For the next six days, the old man remained in a semi-comatose state, but always held his wife's hand, and until his death, the two were still holding hands together.
It took a lot of effort for the children to separate them.
As the days passed, the old woman's health deteriorated and she died in 2012.
From then on, although the ladder was there, their love eventually became a song.
