Cangzhou City, Yanshan County, Shengfo Town, Chen Million Village, living in a special family, the four brothers Chen Yanqi, Chen Yanqi, Chen Yandong, Chen Yanhui are all blind, but they use their own hands to work the barren land, so that the octogenarian old woman can enjoy her old age in peace, and there is a different kind of warmth and light in their dark life. In 2006, the four blind brothers were elected as the top ten people who "moved Hebei". After seeing the report of the four blind brothers, Zhao Can, a girl from Peng Zhao Zhuang in Shenze County, Shijiazhuang, resolutely came to her home and took care of their lives with the old mother of the four brothers. And her grandmother's entrustment on her deathbed made her even more determined not to be separated from her blind brother. Zhao Can even moved his hukou to Yanshan, "I want to recruit a son-in-law here and take care of the four elderly people together." Zhao Can, a simple girl who expressed her truest thoughts in her heart, was elected as one of the top ten people who "moved Hebei" in 2012. As the saying goes: good things are grinding. Zhao Can, who kept his promise in the monotonous and boring countryside, finally entered the marriage hall with his lover in early November this year.

The blind four brothers filial piety and the old lady touched Hebei
The four brothers are simple and humble farmers, they have suffered from strange eye diseases since childhood, their eyesight has become worse and worse, they have been completely blind at the age of 20, and they have been diagnosed with the world's rare retinal atrophy. More than 20 years ago, the father who supported the family's life died, the whole family of 5 people, only the old mother has a pair of healthy eyes, such a family, how to live? In the face of the great test of life, the four brothers did not flinch, and in the face of their mother, who washed their faces with tears every day, they firmly said: "None of us rely on each other, we work on our own farming, and we will send you to the end of your life!" ”
The 6 acres and 2 points of contracted land became the whole family's dependence, and the old mother became the eyes of the four brothers, and she began to teach her sons the basic skills of production and life. To work in the field, how to get to the field has become the first difficulty. Every time she went out, the mother walked in the front, holding a tool in one hand, the eldest son in the other, the eldest son holding the second eldest, and the four brothers lined up in a row. When weeding, they have to go through countless touches to distinguish which grass is and which is the seedling...
Today, the four brothers have been in their own responsibility field for more than 30 spring and autumn seasons, mastering various crops such as sowing, harvesting, watering, and transporting fertilizer, and their harvest can reach about 80% of that of normal people, and they even built three large tile houses by frugality and debt.
In addition to farming, the four brothers groped and learned many crafts. The eldest learned the carpentry job by himself, and he made the stools in the house. The second eldest's job is an electrician, and the wires and lights in the house are installed by him, and he has never been electrified. The third has a musical talent, no matter what the song drama, listen to it a few times, he can use the whistle to blow out. The fourth elder is responsible for "diplomacy", and things outside the home are usually handled by him, the family sells grain, and a bag of grain is cleared by hand, and the weight is not half a kilogram. In order to repay the villagers who often helped them, the four brothers often helped the villagers dig wells.
Being able to support the elderly mother with their own labor, not stealing, not robbing, not doing bad things, and not causing trouble to others is the proudest thing for the four brothers. The old mother is the driving force and support for their lives, and the living principle of the four brothers is that no matter how hard and tired they are, they must make the old woman happy. If you have something delicious, you have to save it for the old lady. The filial piety of the four people has become a model for the villagers.
In May 2011, the 87-year-old mother finally left her four blind sons who were most concerned about her due to old age and frailty, but the old man left with a smile on his face when he died, because the four blind sons had new "eye" guidance, and she could leave with confidence.
Simple girl takes care of the four brothers to perform "father-daughter love"
"When the old lady was dying, she was very relieved to tell our four brothers that with Zhao Can taking care of you, I could close my eyes." The boss Chen Yanqi said that Zhao Can was the "eyes" of their four brothers, and the reason why the old lady could walk with peace of mind was precisely because Zhao Can joined the family.
In 2009, after seeing the report of the four blind brothers, Zhao Can, a girl from Pengzhaozhuang Village in Shenze Town, Shenze County, Shijiazhuang City, was touched by their filial piety to the old woman, and resolutely decided to come to them and take care of the four brothers with the old man. "Zhao Can didn't take long to catch up with the wheat harvest, and the rush to harvest the wheat in the heavy rain made me realize that she was definitely a good girl." Chen Yanqi, the second eldest, said that in mid-May 2009, Zhao Can came to their home just over a month ago, just in time for the wheat harvest, when the hired harvester had already shed the wheat grains, and the golden grains of wheat were piled up on the ground like a hill. Who expected, a sudden heavy rain disrupted the rhythm of people's harvesting, and the four brothers also panicked: "If the wheat grains are not quickly bagged and transported home, it is likely to be washed away by heavy rain, and a year's hard work will be wasted." The four brothers also accelerated the frequency of bagging and transportation, although they were anxious, they could not see the scene in front of them after all, the howling wind blew people untenable, and the bean raindrops hit them, turning the four brothers into a soup chicken.
At this moment, Zhao Can came. She picked up the dustpan and quickly packed the wheat into the bag with everyone, the eldest and third drove the ox cart to the house, and Zhao Can trotted all the way home to take the bag back to the wheat field and then load the remaining wheat grains. "We asked Zhao Can to quickly avoid the rain and not get cold, but the child knew that the grain was the life of the cropper, and she did not rest for a moment." Chen Yanqi said that after going back and forth repeatedly, in the wind and rain, the 23-year-old girl and four blind people forced more than 30 bags of wheat to return all the grains to the warehouse. "When the old lady was seriously ill, if there was no Zhao Can, they could only be in a hurry but could not get their hands on it." Chen Yanqi, the boss, said that in 2011, during the months when the old mother was seriously ill, Zhao Can was busy every day, sorting out the packages of drugs he bought back and feeding them to the elderly until the old man died. "When the old lady was dying, she was very relieved to tell our four brothers that with Zhao Can taking care of you, I could close my eyes."
Subsequently, Zhao Can changed his mouth to call the second elder Chen Yanqi a "dry father", and in April 2012, he moved his hukou from Shijiazhuang to Yanshan, planning to send the blind four brothers to the end of their lives, "I want to recruit a door-to-door son-in-law here, and we will take care of the four elderly people together." Zhao Can said that she left her hukou in Chen Million Village, just to take root here, but also to find a loving and patient son-in-law to take care of the four blind brothers with him. Many readers were touched by Zhao Can's righteous deeds, some donated money and materials to help the four blind brothers, and some people were enthusiastic as "red brides" as Zhao Can's introduction objects. Yanzhao Metropolis Daily also acted as a matchmaker, recruiting a "door-to-door son-in-law" for the four blind brothers and Zhao Can. For a time, the family phone became a marriage hotline, and a young man from Tiannanhaibei introduced himself and wanted to know Zhao Can. But to face the heavy responsibility of taking care of the four blind brothers, many young men finally retreated, and Zhao Can's marriage became the biggest "heart disease" of the four blind brothers.
The simple and kind good girl has a good home
"Sister, tell you something, I'm married." Zhao Can on the other end of the phone, his tone was full of sweetness. The reporter shared Zhao Can's joy and sighed that the good girl finally had a good home.
This summer, Zhao Can, under the introduction of relatives, met with Zhang Hua, a young man in Shijiazhuang Shenze. "The first time we met, we had a good conversation, and when the wheat harvest came to Yanshan to help me work, and then we got married." Zhao Can smiled and said that according to the current statement, she should be regarded as a flash marriage. On November 3, the 22nd day of the ninth lunar month, 29-year-old Zhao Can and Zhang Hua held a wedding ceremony in their hometown.
Zhang Hua and Zhao Can are the same age and were also born in 1986. The two are still fellow villagers, Zhang Hua's family lives in North Zhao Zhuang, Shenze County, Shijiazhuang, and Zhao Can's mother's family is very close.
Zhao Can said that this marriage was facilitated by her aunt and Zhang Hua's aunt. Recalling the scene of meeting Zhang Hua for the first time, Zhao Can was most impressed by "He especially doesn't like to talk." "Although there are not many words, Zhang Hua's simplicity has impressed Zhao Can." Zhang Hua is the eldest in the family, and has a younger brother and a younger sister. He worked on construction sites and, though young, had calluses on both hands. Zhao Can said that Zhang Hua is a real cropper, he can't talk sweetly, but he is not afraid of suffering, which makes her like it.
After the meeting, Zhao Can returned to Yanshan, and the two contacted by phone. In the blink of an eye, when it was the autumn harvest season, Zhang Hua took the initiative to come to Zhao Can's side from Shijiazhuang to help harvest corn. Zhang Hua rarely did farm work since he was a child, although it was the first time he went to the field, but he "did what it looked like". The four blind brothers planted 15 acres of corn, and in the past, Zhao Can was alone with Zhang Luo, and this year she could worry about it, "Harvesting corn and wheat are all helped by Zhang Hua, and I don't care about anything." Zhao Can said.
After a month together, the four blind brothers also liked Zhang Hua very much, they felt that this young man was reliable, and the girlfriend could not stand the grievances after him. "Originally, the two of us went back to Shijiazhuang to discuss the engagement, but I didn't expect that once we went back, the two old people said that they should simply get married, and we would get married on a good day." Zhao Can said with a smile.
There is no vigorous love, only a plain life, but Zhao Can believes that this is happiness. "I feel comfortable now, and I feel that I have something to rely on." Zhao Can said that after Zhang Hua came to this home, she had a companion in talking and doing things, and the burden on her body was also carried, and she was very content with this kind of day, "When the spring of next year, we plan to do something, I believe that our family will get better and better." ”
The reporter asked Zhao Can what Zhang Hua said that touched her the most? Zhao Can replied with a smile, and one day Zhang Hua seriously told her to let her lose weight appropriately. "Why lose weight, you think I'm fat?" Zhao Can asked. "I definitely don't hate you, but people who are fat are prone to illness." The body is the capital, and I want to stay with you for the rest of my life. After listening to Zhang Hua's words, Zhao Can felt a burst of warmth in his heart." He is like this, he doesn't love words, but he always moves me. Zhao Can said.
