Hello everyone, I take the time out of my busy schedule today to bring you the following article, welcome to taste it together!
In June 2001, Hebei farmer Bao Cun and his wife Wang Cuiying quarreled.
They have always wanted to have a second child, but their daughter Ning Ning is already 9 years old, but she has not been able to conceive it for a long time.
One day I went to the hospital for examination, god opened her eyes, and 35-year-old Wang Cuiying finally got pregnant.
However, this second child is pregnant, "surprise" is far greater than "joy".
Because the doctor confirmed that Wang Cuiying was pregnant with quintuplets.
Pregnancy at an advanced age is not uncommon, but it is absolutely very rare to conceive quintuplets at an advanced age.
Bao Cun, Wang Cuiying and their grown-up quintuplets
The chance of a quintuplet naturally becoming pregnant is only one in sixty million, and the thing is so surprising that Wang Cuiying has become this "one in sixty million".
Let's not say that it is not affordable to raise, just say that the life safety of the mother and child during pregnancy, no one dares to guarantee.
Husband Bao Cun means that he follows the doctor's advice and goes to Beijing to do fetal reduction surgery, and subtracts two or three.
In this way, the couple's wish to have a second child was fulfilled, Wang Cuiying and the child in her belly were relatively safe, and the future economic burden was lighter.
Anyway, the doctor said that during pregnancy, there may be a natural death of the fetus, which is no different from doing fetal reduction surgery in advance.
But Wang Cuiying disagreed, as a mother, she could not do anything to give up her child with her own hands.
When they arrived in Beijing, they were told that they had missed the best time to do fetal reduction surgery.
If you have to do it, pregnant women and fetuses are equally life-threatening.
By chance, the quintuplets were all preserved.
Since then, the lives of Bao Baocun and Wang Cuiying have entered a "gyroscope" state around the quintuplets.
Now, 20 years later, how is the family doing?
Many women conceive a child and are tormented by pregnancy reactions to the point of collapse of mentality and doubt life.
Moreover, in terms of quantity, it is 5 times that of Wang Cuiying.
Housework is impossible, because even eating and sleeping has become a problem.

The stomach is habitually swollen and does not feel hungry, but you must force yourself to eat, because the child in the stomach needs nutrition.
From more than three months of pregnancy, Wang Cuiying had to change her position once every three or five minutes to sleep.
Her ass was plucked up, her knees were on her knees, her elbows were propped on either side of her body, and her stomach was specially placed in the middle, which was her ordinary sleeping position.
Tired and then slowly turn the body, change to lying on the side, anyway, a variety of positions to use together, absolutely can not sleep a deep sleep.
Don't dare to lie flat, the huge stomach will compress the internal organs, Wang Cuiying even has difficulty breathing.
His feet were swollen enough to wear normal shoes, and he walked shakily like a penguin.
Mentally sometimes expectant and sometimes afraid, Wang Cuiying pulled her finger to count the due date.
Originally, the couple planned to renovate the family's five houses and import them.
But the onslaught of economic pressure has put the plan on hold "smoothly".
Seeing that the quintuplets were about to be born, they had to consider sending their eldest daughter Ning Ning to boarding school.
Quintuplets as children
The palms of her hands and the backs of her hands are all meat, Wang Cuiying is no longer willing, she must also make up her mind, she has no extra time and energy to take care of her eldest daughter.
In February 2002, due to the limited medical conditions in her hometown, Wang Cuiying was admitted to Beijing Maternity Hospital for delivery.
As an elderly quintuplet mother, Beijing Satellite TV's "Evening News" reported on Wang Cuiying's birth.
On March 4, Wang Cuiying lay on the delivery bed and prepared to undergo a cesarean section.
Her belly was high and bulging, large and round, almost transparent, like a bulging balloon, and seemed to burst at the touch of a touch.
The doctor examined her uterus, which had thinned into the thickness of a piece of paper, and during childbirth, it was very likely that the uterus contraction was weak and cause heavy bleeding.
Internal organs are severely squeezed and there is a risk of heart-lung failure at any time.
Obstetrics, pediatrics, anesthesiology, the directors of each department are all in place, and more than 20 medical staff gathered in the operating room.
The scalpel cut through Wang Cuiying's belly, and the hearts of the people present all mentioned the throat eyes.
Half an hour later, the excited voices of the medical staff came out one after another:
"Slow down, slow down... Daughter, son... 3 girls and two sons..."
After 239 days of hard pregnancy, five babies came to life safely.
Quintuplets were born smoothly
The eldest, girl, 1730 grams; the second, boys, 1720 grams; the third, girls, 1490 grams; the fourth, girls, 1500 grams; the fifth, boys, 1820 grams.
Among them, the eldest and the third share a placenta and are twin sisters; the second and fourth share a placenta, which is a pair of dragon and phoenix brothers and sisters; the fifth uses a placenta alone.
This is also the reason why the children do not look exactly the same when they grow up, especially the fifth, who does not look like his brothers and sisters.
When the medical staff carried the children one by one to Wang Cuiying, she showed a reassuring smile on her face.
Wang Cuiying thus became the "first case in China to successfully give birth to quintuplets".
Before the joy had dissipated, something worrisome came.
On the third day, the third and fourth elders developed apnea one after another; on the sixth day, the second elder was diagnosed with colitis.
As premature babies lying in the incubator, children whose vitality is still fragile, their lives hang in the balance.
Fortunately, the medical staff worked hard and took good care of them, and the children survived this difficulty.
After the birth of the quintuplets
At that time, Master Jing Hui, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, heard about the birth of quintuplets, and after being moved, he named the five children.
Fuqing, Fusen, Fuli, Fuxin, Fuyuan, and the five children have received the attention and blessings of the people of the whole country.
After spending the first 20 days of danger in the incubator, Bao baocun, Wang Cuiying and his wife took the children back to their hometown.
It seems to be a triumphant return, but in fact, it is "chaotic", and the milk powder money alone is enough for the couple to worry.
At this time, Yili Group sent charcoal in the snow and provided milk powder for seven years free of charge for quintuplets to solve this biggest problem.
But everyday life, as expected, is plagued by more real-world problems.
As long as a child cries, all of them will cry, and Wang Cuiying's wounds that cry hurt, and his heart hurts even more.
Mother Wang Cuiying and quintuplets
When feeding, wait for all five to be fed, the bottle has not been cleaned, and it is time to feed the next round.
Sometimes it is inevitable that the wrong feeding will be made, one child will feed twice, and the other will not take the turn once.
If you don't cry, there is no milk, so the child cries hard.
Especially in the evening, get ready, clean up, several rounds passed, the couple basically did not have to close their eyes.
At that time, Wang Cuiying often thought of a question: "When will I be able to sleep peacefully?" ”
Don't say that Wang Cuiying alone can't be busy at all, that is, she and her husband are both busy.
Bao Cun could not go out to earn money, the family lost its financial resources, and life became more and more miserable.
Fortunately, there are well-meaning people who have sent eggs and nutritional products one after another, which can more or less alleviate some of the pressure of life.
Because watching the couple was too tired, the child's grandmother, grandmother, and Wang Cuiying's sister-in-law took a child at night and sent them back during the day.
Once, the second brother's colitis disease, the family is stretched, and Bao Cun had to borrow a huge foreign debt to treat the child.
The daily expenses of a family of eight, debts of more than 200,000 yuan, and the hardship of raising children, the couple was breathless.
Mother Wang Cuiying and quintuplets are in their hometown
She missed home, she missed her mom and dad, but mom and dad didn't have time to hold her and coax her.
In the long-neglected upbringing, Ning Ning developed the habit of living independently, and until he grew up, the relationship with his parents was very estranged.
It's not that their parents don't love Ning Ning, it's that they can't take care of Ning Ning as before, and everything can be taken care of.
Their living space has been filled with quintuplets.
When one child gets sick, several other children get sick one after another.
Anxious to take care of the children, when the children are good, Wang Cuiying will be sick again.
It was hard to survive until the quintuplets were three years old, and when they reached the age of kindergarten, new problems followed.
The tuition fee of 150 yuan per child per month, a total of 750 yuan, can not be taken out by the family.
The children were lying on the fence of the kindergarten, bleeding, biting their fingernails, their eyes narrowed, watching other children running and playing inside.
Looking at the eager eyes of the children, the kindergarten made an exception to allow five children to go in and play.
Quintuplet growth photos
Riding a wooden horse, pressing a seesaw, riding a slide... Kindergartens have become the most desirable place for children.
Bao Cun and Wang Cuiying are sad and helpless, they feel too sorry for the children, it is the parents who are useless, so that the children are wronged.
In 2005, the turning point came.
That year, Wang Cuiying took her quintuplets to Beijing Television to participate in a program.
There was a talent show in the show, and the most embarrassing thing happened.
3-year-old city children, dancing and singing and memorizing ancient poems, and even musical instruments, have learned a little bit of fur.
But for the quintuplets, they can only perform their most common farm work, "rubbing corn.".
Because their families are poor, they can't even afford to go to the most ordinary rural kindergartens, and where do they have the opportunity to learn talents.
The guest of the program, Professor Cheng Huai, the founder of Beijing Happiness Spring Education, was deeply stung by this scene.
It's not that the children are stupid and can't learn, it's that the children don't have the opportunity to learn.
He said on the spot that he would receive quintuplets for free to receive education at the Happy Spring Emerald City Kindergarten in Beijing's Daxing District.
Hearing the news that the children can go to kindergarten, Wang Cuiying shed tears of happiness and gratitude.
After returning home to consult with her husband, Wang Cuiying took her five children to Beijing to study, and baocun stayed in her hometown to farm the land, do small business, and strive to earn money to pay off debts.
A family of eight began a decade-long off-site life.
Wang Cuiying rented a one-bedroom house near the kindergarten and found a housekeeping job.
Children are sent to kindergarten every Monday and picked up again every Friday.
Wang Cuiying's salary, part of the rent, the rest is the living expenses of the family of six.
Although the children are multiple, they are not in a position to wear the same style of clothing at all.
They wore hundreds of clothes sent by well-wishers, and the kindergarten teacher combed the same braids for the three girls in order to distinguish them.
The first time they ate after entering the kindergarten, each child ate 6 buns, which was the best meal they had ever eaten when they grew up so big.
The teachers were stunned and had to nervously and worriedly observe the after-meal situation of the five children.
Afraid that they will eat bad stomachs and eat problems, after all, ordinary children will eat two or three at most one meal.
The quintuplets participated in the show
After an hour, confirming that there was no problem, the teacher arranged for the children to bathe and sleep.
Sending the children to school, Wang Cuiying began to work non-stop.
Sometimes, in order not to cause trouble for her employer, she did not dare to drink more water, for fear of going to the toilet.
Sometimes, when time is too tight, she doesn't eat lunch.
The special family environment has developed the good habit of children taking care of themselves independently from an early age.
Other people's children are still spoiling and selling cuteness, being held in the palms of their hands by their parents, and the five- or six-year-old quintuplets have begun to take care of their mothers.
Once, Wang Cuiying, who returned home from a busy job, was weak and weak, and for her to eat and sleep, she wanted to sleep more to relieve her fatigue.
So she tricked the children into eating themselves, and asked them to heat up the leftovers of the last meal.
When she woke up after a short break, she found a few little bits of work clearly busy in the kitchen.
They said that mom must not have eaten, and they made it for mom.
As a child, the quintuplets were in their hometown
Seeing the children's obedient and sensible appearance, Wang Cuiying burst into tears and choked up in her voice.
Facing the camera, Wang Cuiying often blames herself, and she even regrets bringing her children into this world.
Because she feels that the children are more sensible than one, and she has let the children suffer too many grievances.
Wang Cuiying said: "We owe too much affection, and I am afraid that we will not be able to pay it back in this life." ”
In the kindergarten, the five children have seen the vast world and have their own hobbies.
The old fuqing likes music, the second fusen likes roller skating, the old three Fuli swim the best, the old fourth Fuxin has a pair of skillful hands that can do handicrafts, and the old five Fuyuan is keen to identify various car logos.
Through the coordination of Professor Huai, Beijing Fengtai District Experimental Primary School accepted five children to enroll, exempting all study expenses during the six-year period, totaling 180,000 yuan.
The "Shuangchun Peace Charity Scholarship Fund" also provides 100,000 yuan of scholarships to provide comprehensive protection for children's primary education.
Dad deposits treasure with the kids
With the help of the teachers, each of the five children learned a musical instrument.
March 4, 2008, is the sixth birthday of the quintuplets.
Caring people from all walks of life came to the kindergarten to celebrate the children's birthday.
Looking at the smiling faces of the children and the kind people, Bao Baocun and Wang Cuiying could not hide their inner excitement.
Greater joy ensued.
With the help of Professor Cheng Huai, the quintuplets were awarded the title of "Volunteer Little Messengers" by the Beijing Volunteer Association, and they participated in the opening ceremony performance of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games with the image of "Olympic Five Blessings".
From childhood to adulthood, although the family's economic conditions are difficult, the quintuplets receive formal education under the care of all walks of life, experience kindness and love, and grow up healthily under the nourishment of positive energy.
Quintuplets that thrive
In 2015, the quintuplets were in junior high school at a middle school in Beijing, and in the one-bedroom rental house, the most frequent items were books and beds.
3 girls in one room, two girls sleeping on double beds, 1 girl sleeping on floor mats and two boys sleeping on beds in the living room.
Because there is no desk at home, every day when they come home, they sit in a circle around the coffee table in the living room and quietly write their homework.
The five children work shifts to cook every day, and when their mother Wang Cuiying comes home from work, she can eat immediately.
Every day at work, Wang Cuiying will bring a small trolley car to buy vegetables, and when she passes by the vegetable market after work, she will pick those dishes that are not fresh and sold.
Every night before going to bed, the five children would pick up their respective instruments and play a song for their mother, eliminating her fatigue.
Mom Wang Cuiying with children
A program of Beijing Television Station learned about the actual situation of the quintuplet family and planned to decorate a warm, loving, and super practical new home for them.
But because the rented house is not fixed, Wang Cuiying proposed to renovate the house in his hometown in Hebei.
Since the children went to primary school, Bao Cun also went to Hangzhou, Zhejiang To work, and the house in his hometown has become more and more dilapidated and decadent.
The eldest daughter, Ning Ning, plans to get married in 2016, and Wang Cuiying wants to reunite the family in her hometown happily before her daughter gets married, and then send her daughter to marry.
After her husband Bao Cun went to Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, for nearly 10 years, he rarely went home and rarely asked about the children's learning.
What shocked the program team the most was that she had never given Wang Cuiying money to support her family.
Wang Cuiying is an independent-thinking, stubborn woman, and her husband's abnormal behavior is interpreted by her as having a "style problem".
Other than that, she couldn't think of any other reason.
Bao Cun and Wang Cuiying brought their children to participate in the program
Except for knowing that he was in Shaoxing, Zhejiang, nothing else was known.
After the program team went to Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province to find Bao Cun, they learned the poignant truth.
It turned out that in recent years, all the wages deposited in the treasure deposit were used to repay debts, and they were directly transferred from the wage account to the creditor's account.
That year, the second colitis fell ill, and Bao Cun was really unwilling to consume the good money of well-wishers, so he could only borrow a huge amount of money to treat the child.
Finally, it was almost over, the eldest daughter Ning Ning wanted to get married, and he began to save dowry money for Ning Ning again.
He knew that Wang Cuiying was very hard, but in order to pay off the debt, he could only harden his heart.
He said he had no style problems and never gave himself any chance in that regard.
The eldest daughter Ning Ning suddenly appeared in front of her, and Bao Bao Cun asked unkindly, "How did you come?" ”
Seeing the office where dad worked and lived, and seeing the way dad had worked hard for his family over the years, her daughter Ning Ning couldn't help but blush and shed tears.
Quintuplet mother Wang Cuiying
Bao Cun hugged his tearful daughter, the first time his father had hugged Ning Ning since he had quintuplets.
Looking at the harmonious picture in front of him, seeing that Bao Cun was suffering from Wang Cuiying's deep misunderstanding and silently paying, the host cried.
With the design support of the Beijing Television Program Group and sponsors, the renovation of the old home in Hebei Province, named "Reunion", began construction.
In the Spring Festival of 2016, five renovated houses welcomed a happy return home for a family of eight and a family reunion.
With the efforts of many parties, the second oldest fuson was admitted to the private school Yude Experimental Middle School.
From the beginning of the military training, Tu Fusen's performance was outstanding, and the students unanimously elected him as the class leader.
Yude Middle School has waived the tuition and accommodation fees of Fusen for 3 years by more than 30,000 yuan.
He said: "I want to study hard, strive to get good grades in the exams, and get into a good university." ”
The children met after their first separation in high school
The other four children were admitted to Hejian No. 1 Middle School, and the eldest, Fuqing, was also selected to enter the school's key class.
At the first meeting after the start of school, Tufterson ran quickly to several other children and hugged them tightly, which was the first time they had grown up to be apart.
After arranging the children, Wang Cuiying returned to Beijing, where she moved into a dormitory and began to make money single-mindedly.
The children are about to go to college, there are too many places to use money, and she must do her best to fight for a better future for the children.
In the same year, Bao Baocun died of unexpected illness, and the burden of the family fell on Wang Cuiying.
Watching their mother work hard to support the family alone, the children had the idea of dropping out of school and wanted to work to help their mother.
But Wang Cuiying stopped the children from thinking about it, and she asked the children to study with peace of mind, and they didn't have to worry about money.
Some well-meaning people reached out, but she refused this kindness.
She believes that she can still afford the living expenses of her children, and if she can support herself, she will never drag everyone down.
She said: "When I think of my children, I am full of strength, and no matter how tired I am, I feel that it is worth it." ”
The quintuplets had birthdays
The children deeply understand their mother's hardships, save money and reduce their mother's burden.
The three sisters who went to school at Hejian No. 1 Middle School bought 3 staple foods and a dish every time they ate lunch, and then ate them together.
During the epidemic period, Wang Cuiying worked in Beijing to earn money, and the children arranged everything at home.
Five children need five mobile phones for online lessons, and the eldest Fuqing borrowed mobile phones eliminated by relatives and neighbors to assemble several mobile phones that could be used for online lessons.
At home, Fu Fuqing took on the responsibility of the boss and arranged the lives of his younger siblings in an orderly manner.
Getting up, eating, cooking, doing housework, the five children had a clear division of labor and were methodical.
Knowing that the children take care of themselves and arrange their own studies, Wang Cuiying often leaves tears of relief.

On July 23, 2020, the scores of the college entrance examination were announced.
The eldest paid Fuqing 498 points, the second paid Fusen 269 points, the third paid Fuli 442 points, and the fourth paid Fuxin 448 points.
Before the old five fuyuan college entrance examination, he passed the "separate enrollment" and has been admitted to the Hebei Chemical and Pharmaceutical Vocational and Technical College.
As soon as the results came out, her mother Wang Cuiying grew a breath, and she looked forward to the children going to college.
But the ensuing financial pressure came to her like a mountain.
After the college entrance examination, the home full of books and beds had one more item - a small clip with flowers and vines.
It turns out that children know that after going to college, they will face a large amount of tuition and living expenses.
As soon as the college entrance examination is over, they begin to look for jobs everywhere, hoping to earn enough tuition and living expenses before the start of school.
Even though many well-wishers expressed their willingness to sponsor children to study, Wang Cuiying refused one by one.
Now quintuplets
Because it is still during the epidemic period, it is not easy to find a job, only the old five fuyuan found a security job in Beijing, and he managed to eat and live for 4,000 yuan per month.
The other children were not idle, and the eldest Fuqing found a manual work that could be done at home.
The siblings make money by doing handicrafts at home every day.
"We can earn more than 80 yuan in two days, and we strive to do more and earn more to reduce the burden for my mother." ”
In 2016, Bao Cun and Wang Cuiying took their children to the stage of "Mamma Mia".
That year, the quintuplets were 14 years old, wearing the same school uniforms and singing "Let Love Live in My House" with their mothers.
The hard work of 14 years of persistence and companionship of the mother, and the hard work of the father going out to work alone, all melted in the children's sensible words and tears that could not help but flow.
The quintuplets perform on the "Mamma Mia" stage
Guest judge Teacher Jin Xing said:
"When we need help, our society, and there are still a lot of warm hands out there that make our quintuplets grow particularly healthy, which shows that we live in a society with temperature."
I hope that your stories and family life will bring us more positive information.
It also tells more families that when facing life, persistence and persistence, persistence has hope. ”
Time is a number, but for everyone and every family, it is a story, a period of life.
Because of the birth of quintuplets, rural woman Wang Cuiying became a celebrity, but she was also "tired of fame" and paid unimaginable hardships for ordinary people.
In the past, she used to cry, her children were sick and wronged, and she blamed herself for her incompetence.
Now, she smiles a lot, the children are grown up and sensible, and she is pleased with the persistence of herself and her husband.
Bao Cun, Wang Cuiying and his wife and quintuplets
Persistence has hope, and where there is hope, there is strength.
Wang Cuiying counted the time in this way, 21 years, more than 7,000 days, day by day, year by year, the most difficult days have passed.
Today, she is 55 years old and the quintuplets are 19 years old.
Hope has come, and it is a time for children to make a difference.
