"Who are you?" The staff of the Martyrs' Cemetery asked.
The elderly man thought for a moment and said, "She is my unmarried lover." ”
The conversation took place in the martyr's cemetery in Luohe, because the staff found that an old man had appeared in front of a martyr's tombstone every day, regardless of wind or rain, for decades.
The tombstone reads the tomb of the martyr Jing Baoling, and out of curiosity, the staff asked the old man what the relationship was with the martyr.

Through talking with the old man, we also learned about the "incredible" love story between him and the martyr Jing Baoling. Many people are touched by the love story between them.
People wanted to help him, so they contacted the non-profit organization "Toutiao Missing" and immediately wrote about their touching stories.
Through this article, the old man finally found Jing Baoling's family, who had been looking for 64 years.
We're getting married
Through understanding, I learned that the old man's name was Zhang Hui, he and Jing Baoling met in the hospital of the military camp, and in 1950, Zhang Hui was injured and hospitalized, and it was Jing Baoling who took care of him.
After a period of time, the two sides got along with each other, and then determined their relationship, and when Zhang Hui was discharged from the hospital, the two parties agreed to get married when the war was over.
Jing Baoling wrote a letter to her family to tell her family, that she was going to marry a soldier who defended her family and country, and her parents were very supportive when they found out.
After a period of time, Zhang Hui reported to his superiors that he was going to get married, and after the leaders found out, they specially sent Zhang Hui to Nanjing, where Jing Baoling's family lived.
After Zhang Hui arrived in Nanjing, he found a good day and went to visit Jing Baoling's parents with gifts, and the parents were very happy to see Zhang Hui come to visit them, and they said that they would get married when Zhang Hui came back.
Through the letter sent by Jing Baoling, her parents learned that she was now following the army to Henan, and there was no detailed address, which involved military secrets, and said that she would return soon.

The parents were looking forward to their daughter's return as soon as possible, but they didn't expect the bad news to come.
On May 14, 1955, Jing Baoling's parents received a "martyr's certificate" forwarded by the civil affairs department, and the certificate was signed "Lin Biao, commander of the Fourth Field Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army."
The Jing family was grief-stricken when they heard the bad news, Jing Baoling's younger brother cried heartbreakingly, he has always admired his sister very much, saying that his sister was definitely not dead, Jing Baoling was only 23 years old at the time, which was the age of her prime.
The parents asked the staff who came to the door, and their daughter was buried there, and the staff said that the situation was urgent, and the martyrs were buried on the spot, and they did not know the specific location, only that it was in Henan.
But in that era of closed news, it was not easy to inquire about a person's grave in a province, which also became the heart disease of the old couple, and every time they thought about it, they couldn't help but die.
Zhang Hui is also unable to let go of this matter, thinking back to the bits and pieces with Jing Baoling, Zhang Hui feels painful, they are obviously about to get married, but God cruelly separated them, he vowed to find his lover's grave.
Joining the army without telling his family
Jing Baoling was born in a rural family in Jiangsu Province, she has a younger brother named Jing Baolong, she is 11 years older than her brother, and she has loved her brother very much since she was a child.
In 1949, 17-year-old Jing Baoling was admitted to Southwest Military Medical University, her parents were proud of her, and her younger brother talked about her sister every day.
Jing Baoling could have found a good job and lived a happy life with her excellent academic qualifications, but she had a heart eager to serve the motherland.
So Jing Baoling went to join the army without telling her parents, and worked as a nurse in the 157th Field Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army at that time. She hopes that she can "contribute to the development and construction of the motherland."
After joining the army, Jing Baoling told her parents about it by letter, and after her parents knew about it, they encouraged her to join the army, and her parents were happy and proud of her.
Jing Baoling knew that her parents were still a little worried about her, so she often wrote letters to her family to tell her parents about her current situation.
Later, Jing Baoling's unit received an order to go to Henan, where because of the army's discipline requirements, the number of letters written to her family became less and less.
Until the Jing family received Jing Baoling's relics and martyr certificate.
Jing Baoling's parents knew that Jing Baoling sacrificed, because of excessive sadness, her father cried blind and fell seriously ill, and her parents' greatest wish was to find Jing Baoling's grave and see their daughter.
In 1976, Jing Baoling's parents passed away one after another, and they did not find their daughter buried there until she died.
When Jing Baoling's parents died, they told the family that their daughter's name could be on their tombstone, and they could accompany their daughter after they died.
After 64 years of searching, there was a result
Zhang Hui was a soldier, so after inquiring among his comrades-in-arms, he learned that Jing Baoling finally died in Luohe City, Henan Province.
So he came to Luohe to look for it, and after looking for a long time, his hard work finally paid off, and he found his lover's tombstone in the martyr's cemetery in Luohe.
Zhang Hui rushed back to Nanjing as soon as possible, wanting to tell Jing Baoling's family the news, but when he arrived at Jing Baoling's house, the family had already moved away, and asked the neighbor, who said he didn't know where he had gone.
It turned out that Jing Baoling's family had not given up looking for her, and after the death of her parents, her younger brother had been looking for her sister's grave and moving around, hoping to find her sister's grave as soon as possible.
It's just that Jing Baolong didn't expect him to look for 64 years, from a young man in his prime to a faltering old man.
But he never gave up, and he told his son's story about his sister, telling them that if he died and didn't find it, you should keep looking.
Zhang Hui couldn't find Jing Baoling's family, so he stayed alone at her grave and came to visit his lover every day for decades. Because he couldn't let go of Jing Baoling, he didn't marry again.
After the person in charge of the "Headline Search" activity learned about this story, he immediately wrote an article called "Jiangsu martyr Jing Baoling is buried in the Luohe City Martyrs Cemetery, where are his relatives now?" 》
After Jing Baoling's family saw this article, they immediately rushed to the Luohe Martyrs Cemetery, Jing Baolong trembled and walked to the tombstone, and when he saw his sister's name, he couldn't help crying bitterly.
The 64-year-long road to find relatives finally came to a successful end, Jing Baolong met Zhang Hui, who came to visit his sister, called out to his brother-in-law, and then looked at each other speechlessly and hugged each other tightly.
The two of them saw the young man for the first time, and they were already pulsatilla, and after meeting, they had no regrets, and they leaked a relieved smile.
Jing Baoling's story allows us to see the most sincere family affection and love, and it is precisely because of the countless martyrs of the older generation who shed their blood that we have today's prosperity.
