There are also thousand-year-old trees in the mountains, and it is rare to meet centenarians in the world. In Shihua Street, Jinshan District, there are currently 5 centenarians. Behind their more than 100-year-old life is their unique "longevity code".
Song Acui, who lives in the Biner residential area, is 103 years old this year, and the secret behind this is not only the optimism and open-mindedness of the grandmother herself, but also inseparable from the companionship and careful care of Song Acui's three sons day after day and year after year.
As lunch approached, an enticing aroma filled Song Acui's home, which was the braised pork specially prepared for her by Song Acui's son. "My mother likes to eat braised pork, eggs, fish, and sour things", talking about taking care of the elderly, Song Acui's son Lu Renguan talked eloquently, "At the end of May, my mother accidentally broke a bone, and now she has to worry more about taking care of it, but in general, she is in good health." ”
Coincidentally, in the same community, 101-year-old Huang Baobao also enjoys the careful care and meticulous care of his family, and his 6 children take turns guarding Huang Baobao every week. In order to make Huang Baobao eat warm and comfortable, the children will also change the dishes every day and make more porridge that Huang Baobao likes. In the view of Zhang Zhiming, the son of Huang Baobao, the secret of the longevity of the elderly may lie in the love and companionship given by the children, "Our children try their best to take care of the elderly, as long as the elderly are healthy and happy every day, it is very good."
In addition to the company of their children, the "old buddies" volunteers in the community also added a lot of laughter to the lives of centenarians. Whenever he saw volunteers come to the door, Huang Baobao would talk to them with a smile.
Unveiling the mystery of longevity, hidden behind it is not only personal health wisdom, but also the dedication and companionship of children. On the smiling faces of these long-lived old people, we see the traces of the years, and we see the light and shadow of happiness.
