Although life is poor

But Lin Yayan did not choose to rely on her husband

It's walking into a building site.

Become a mud worker at a cement construction site

He is the flower of the concrete floor

His palms are full of cocoons

His rough palm prints are etched with the imprint of future blueprints

The burden on my shoulders has never been lifted

Holding the cement of the construction site at one end

In this new home

He continues to witness the growth of his children

Five sons Wu Jinlai and six sons Wu Jinchun

Seven sons Wu Jincong were also born here

When I was seven or eight years old?

And one night, oh.

It's windy and raining heavily

Then you knew we were poor

It's raining and thundering.

I woke up and said

I noticed my mother

We live in the same room as everyone else

My mother?

Wake up one child at a time

To cover the quilt

So I come to this day

I still remember this incident.

This home is not just a place to live

It became the starting point of a family's dream

Witness the passage of time

Carrying the struggles and hopes of a generation

My mother had nine children, seven boys and two girls.

Then he encourages the children every day

We must have more children.

So we nine children?

He also gave birth to more than 30 grandchildren for him

We have more than 30 grandchildren from these 30 + grandchildren

Nearly 40 great-grandchildren

So it can be said that his husband and wife are very good, hahaha.

My mother-in-law loves children

When a grandson is an adult

He was the first to ask if we had a boyfriend.

Do you have a girlfriend?

After getting married

He will ask when we are going to give birth again

Hahaha, if it's because of him

He is very fond of children

He thinks he wants everyone to start a business

He will bring out a book at any time

Then there are the phone numbers of our whole family written in it

He will contact if he is free.

In the 1970s, 44-year-old Lin Yayan

Once again for your own life

Made an extraordinary decision

He follows

With his eldest son Wu Wenming and second son Wu Jitang

Third son Wu Jincheng and eldest daughter-in-law Xue Fengzhu

Be brave enough to embark on a journey to Singapore

Keep working hard

He wasn't pushed by life.

It's about moving forward.

It's hard work, right?

My mom is the best person in the world

I didn't find a second one.

Ah!

Oh, he did it himself.

It's bitter.

We're all doing this together.

He followed with the hoe.

I'm here. I'm going to talk about it.

I should be grateful to my mother and my second brother.

My first pot of gold

The teacher said that they helped me

Well, so it's not an easy first pot of gold.

He often exhorts his children

Honesty is more important than money

These years in Singapore

He's a mother.

More of a comrade in arms

Fighting side by side with children

Foster their future with sweat

He often tells us

You can't cut corners on balls.

He had this idea.

Zero defects a week

No cutting corners

I put this concept too

Bring in our Melaka Construction Factory Union

I remember the time I left home

He asked me what kind of work I do on the construction site.

So I told him.

I recently stocked up on a DJ for the second volume.

He asked me about beef and Yang Fei

Yang Fei must add it.

DJs are important.

Do it well, this thing

He returned to Malacca in the 1980s.

Continue to work side by side with children on construction sites

Until my grandmother had a stroke

He just put down the tool

Back to family

Take good care of

Until the last journey to bid farewell to my mother-in-law in 1982

Years are speechless

He wrote filial piety and affection with his actions

Time goes by

Lin Yayan embarked on the road back home several times

Including 1983 and 1993

He returned to Putian

Reuniting with the long-missed maiden family

The accent didn't change at that moment.

Family as always

Like an old song buried in my heart

Sung softly by the years

This time in 20 years

He loved it.

Return home every year

Back to his Putian

His hometown

The purpose is to go back and see him.

Old friends from childhood

We also fulfilled his wish

After our government made relations with the Chinese gang

So he has to go back every year after that

March 11, 1998

Husband Wu Yawu passed away

Receive notification at the same time

The land of the old house was repossessed by the landlord

Lin Yayan was 72 years old that year

Officially entering the twilight of life

No more bricks and mortar by her side

She was surrounded by her grandchildren.

As you can see from the photo

His smile is warm

Surrounded by children and grandchildren

The house party filled his schedule

And he was doing very, very well.

He looks forward to the next festival every day. What is it?

For example, after Chinese New Year

He is waiting for the Lantern Festival

After the Lantern Festival, wait for Qingming again

After Qingming Festival

Wait a minute, there will be ghost teeth after the Dragon Boat Festival.

There are many more

Mid-Autumn Festival again

Too many festivals

In 2000, when his home

The old house that has carried him for half his life

Recovered by the landlord

He said goodbye softly

Like the last sigh of the past

A life you can't go back to

Youth that cannot be repeated

This old house that has carried half his life's wind and rain

Witness the growth of children and the laughter of families

Now it has become a landscape in memory

The past has become a song

Since then

Li Yayan chose to return in life

Living in a home with nine children

So many. So good.

The heavens are here!

Like our brothers?

Just go out.

OK

There are other children

There are still many places to go

So this kid has more

OK, I'll make a resolution.

I went back to Malacca.

I wish my mother could live in my home

I can do well

His sons found him a safe place to live

And hired special care

However, his heart began to

Finally, the descendants of the hundreds of people

The warm reminder never stops

His memory froze like ash

grandma

Do you have anything to say?

I just said

Not enough grandchildren

A little more.

Yes yes

Want Duoduo Sun

Dodo Sun

Sun < unk > Hmm

More is not enough

Haha, the more, the better.

The more, the better.

100 now.

200 next year

Haha, okay.

200 next year

Okay, okay.

Hmm, very filial.

Grandchildren are filial

Every filial piety

Filial piety

Each daughter-in-law

All filial piety

All filial piety

In 2021, Wu Lin Yayan Charity Fund was established

These are his children.

In particular, Wu Jincheng, the honorary president of Xing'an Hall

1.20 million fund in his name

Issued at the end of each year

Aid goldfish in need

Time goes by

His life didn't stop at the memories of his family

Also turned into a light of kindness

Continue to illuminate others

As a child

There is also this battle every year

At that time, my mother-in-law, my father-in-law, and they all went to the Netherlands

Family line up

One day I remember it was after my mother-in-law came back

Blood all over your head

It might be pushed down.

It bleeds, so it gives me an impression?

There are many poor people in this society.

Have an idea

Let's build this foundation

Donated to these elderly people

April 6, 2024

In the fourth son

Under the arrangement of Datuk Seri Wu Jinhua

Li Yayan returned to Meizhou with five generations of descendants

Go to pay homage to Mazu

Pray for blessings to the homeland and ancestors

Fourth son Wu Jinhua

Also at that time

President of Hsing An Association of Malaysia

Time can take away blue silk

But can't take away his memory

Li Yayan has an amazing memory

Generations of family history

Name branch

He remembers it clearly

Time never blurred in his heart

His memory is so good

He can not only recognize

He can also call out his name

Great grandson can

His memory is still very, very good

Very, very strong.

This is one of his characteristics

One day my driver said the boss fired the man at the Brangelo

He still has that memory

He is going to so-and-so

He went left and right to the temple.

He can also command

Like my driver, do you want to turn left or right?

So my story is surprising.

Is there an event in worship?

Are they going to cross the river?

9 people were involved in a car accident

7 people go to the grave

Record loneliness

Seven people?

Um, 7.

To cross the river

People die and go out

Alas

You are alas

You can talk about people.

Ah!

Right.

He always said that money should be spent on the edge of the knife

The more stable the days can be

Shabby clothes can be mended and worn again

Pick up the rice grains when they fall on the table

Fuel, rice, oil and salt are hard-won

His frugality is not stingy

It's about cherishing life.

Planning for the future

It is this kind of housekeeping

Let the family learn to cherish things and be content

My mother is poor because of him.

He is economical

Indirectly, we don't steal or rob.

This is our way of life

I remember when I was a child, I scolded Guerra in my hometown

He always tells us not to waste food

Be sure to cook the inside of the bowl

If only we had taken him to eat

We don't tell him it's fake.

He asked how much it was

If you pay 300 yuan

You say one hundred and five

Pellets will come here in the future

Fall from desire

Ogu will come to pick you up

It means to come back later.

Ah if

Your family

Austria

It's expensive to lose.

Oguoen Ani because of my mother

Is he our poor?

So he knows.

So it's expensive.

He won't come anymore

He can't kill

Our brothers and sisters grew up in a poor family

Parents?

How about living frugally?

Work hard at home

He told us to take care of our family

Work hard.

Here we are.

Suffering never brought him down

In trouble

He is always silently looking for a way out

Husband fishing

He went to the construction site to carry the mud

A pair of hands support the lives of 9 children

He doesn't complain about the injustice of fate

It's about rewriting your life.

He is a tree that does not fall in the wind and rain

It is a lamp of hope in poor times

I think that's actually

That era?

We Putian people

Nursing women is very hard

What I can say is very hard

So my mom was one of them.

The nurturing women of that era?

Each is about the same

Under such circumstances

Fight with your life to maintain living expenses

He is very hardworking

If he is free

He will come to my house.

Look, there are weeds

Help fix the white shrimp.

Is that so?

He thinks it's a sport.

Oh my mother

It's working on a construction site.

How often does he come to this day?

He's retired.

He still loves going to construction sites

I think Oman's personality

Is very worthy of our respect

What's the matter?

It's today's thing, today's illness

How can my father have

People in my family have this spirit

There is a kind of hunger called cursing

Think you are hungry

Have you finished?

This is the most common thing he says when he sees his grandson

What if he comes back to his side?

Hey, grandma is back

We're going over

Look at grandma

Chat with grandma

Well, Zhensun has a very, very good relationship with him

Because he likes kids too much.

Just in these two years

He is also very lucky

What about our grandchildren?

His grandson has probably added to him, I believe

Nearly 10 male grandchildren

So, he is very lucky.

In just two years

Nearly 10 male and grandchildren

He was so happy.

He is every year

Every day, I urge my daughter-in-law to give birth quickly.

Born early?

What a life, such a situation

And then he got what he wanted.

I said when I was a kid

We also live in our hometown

Did you help?

My bubble is very frugal

Then I remember the boiling water we used to use

We all have to shoot Muzi trees to boil boiling water.

Then he gets up early every day

Maybe 4 to 5 o'clock

When he gets up, he'll go and save those houses next door. Come together

Is that all?

Are you off work?

Just tell us to hurry up and get to the car

He's actually afraid of all of us

It seems that our car is not guaranteed.

Just worried about us

So hey

You have to be full to be strong.

Yeah, whenever we go to visit him.

He will ask us a question: Are you full?

Are you hungry?

Yell Miluo?

Think back to our big day

Go to the New Year.

He will know what we want to eat

He wakes up in the morning.

Will get up early

Then go to Saudi Arabia to buy that thing.

Then I will cook it for him at night

Those great-grandchildren?

Grandchildren love him very much

Because he has a 131 on him.

A feeling is very comfortable

A very compassionate image

Like my grandson

Although they rarely come back

But if I come back, I will go to him

In this era

Dialects are often forgotten

But at Li Yayan's house

He became a bond of love

Many grandchildren want to talk more with their mother

Specially learned Hokkien dialect and Xinghua dialect

They don't want language to be a barrier.

Just because of my mother's response

A word and a look

Is worth a thousand words

Uh my grandma

She doesn't speak Chinese.

So we communicate with her in Hokkien

So uh

More ordinary ones can still communicate

I only remember every time I went to my mother's house when I was a child

My favorite is my mother, I love to buy Jijilin

Haha, and then grandma will say goodbye every time.

Jiggling, but anyway

He will still buy it for us.

Go and feed us

I remember when I was in elementary school

Sometimes I go to his room to sleep with him

Say sometimes early

In the morning we are ready to go to school

Still asking you

Do you have any money?

Does he still take a dime or a dime when he has time?

Go to school and buy us something to eat

Li Yayan is never condescending between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law

But with an understanding heart

Gently safeguard the harmony of the family

He is emotionally stable

Quietly remove the coercion of the elders

It doesn't add a burden to the children

The mother-in-law's seat is not for accusation

Is to understand

His wives talk about him

Always red eyes

Not because of grievance

But because of emotion

My family news my two children

He would cook it for us every morning

Feeding a child a full moon

He's going to shave my son's head with that blade.

And he does it really well.

If it's just a blade, he gives it a razor.

A child's childhood is 100 years old.

Hmm.

My mother-in-law is a very good mother-in-law

Also a good mother

She's a very modest person

Very low-key, so he is very popular

He will not be in front of others

I want my own wealth and glory

Very low key

I learned a lot from him

The truth of life

I admire him for being a really good mother

We love my grandmother very much.

My grandmother also loves us very much.

Never scolded a word

I have been married to my husband for 37 years this year

My wife

Never scolded us

Like a thousand steps

Not me, eight, six, seven steps.

It's all the same.

So we love my grandmother very much.

Although my grandmother is already 100 years old

But he won't give it to you.

It's troublesome, what do I want to tell you?

I don't even remember now

Buy the fan door, buy the noodles, and buy the fan door.

OK

Do you like it? Stay in my house.

Rejoice, rejoice

group by group

Group by group so far, rejoicing ah

It's more convenient to lean on the stand until you get it.

Hmm, cover your face for a lifetime, hmmm

Are you happy?

Will invest

Will invest

I will invest in it

Workers have been um

Moral man

I always say I'm on the air

But if it happens again

I can be his wife again

I still want it.

I am very grateful

That means we just added it.

He just calls his mother back for dinner every day.

Have lunch and what?

Very, very kind person.

Well, teach us how to behave and do things

I was raised by a single parent.

He taught my mom to do this.

He taught me everything

I was very touched.

A better wife

My wife 30,000 back door

Cha Mouji 30,000 back road

Our relationship actually goes beyond daughter-in-law and family-in-law.

Because our relationship is closer

We can talk about anything.

He won't argue with you.

He will also teach you to roar

What is treating people with honesty?

Confound others with virtue.

This is our mother-in-law

He spent his life interpreting

What does it mean to not be a burden to children?

He understands the hardships of having children start a family

So never say much

Just stand quietly behind them

He also often warns children not to be afraid of losing money

You can't hurt people even if you suffer a loss.

suffer a loss

Heaven hurts

That's what he believed all his life

It was his most tender insistence on his conscience

He put this in his heart

Secretly buried in the bones and blood of every descendant

He is good for our health.

He doesn't swear

Teach our children to be good people

Don't cheat

Don't bully people

He treats people well

He will forgive

He doesn't care about others

A good mother

Think of people everywhere

Treat people with kindness

I've never talked about the bad things about people

It's all good.

I still have a lot to learn

care less

Pay a little more?

Don't be afraid to suffer

Many people are afraid of losing money

But even if you treat my grandmother badly

She won't treat you badly

This is its characteristic

I have a deep impression of my mother-in-law

Just once we went on a trip back to our hometown together

From there I can feel that she loves us very much

As soon as you get on the plane, you have to turn off your phone

Everyone has to turn off their phones

She saw someone playing with their phone next to her

The first time I saw him angry was because of this

Here I eat so big

Never seen him lose his temper

Because we're all hurting

Looking back on his life

From Fishing Village to Nanyang

From the construction site to the spiritual pillar of the family

He didn't come from a wealthy family

But left behind a most precious treasure

To future generations

And spent his life as the most magnificent building

It is better to move money than to move virtue

The house of Jishan must have more than celebration

He left it for posterity

It was that simple but profound lesson that made it happen

You must first learn to be human

And that became the foundation for generations.

Precipitated in the hearts of every descendant

Become the code and strength of their behavior

Lin Yayan's life

A figure standing tall in the wind and rain

It is the warmest light in the years

A flower grows stubbornly on the cement floor

Floral fragrance

No fight, no robbery

But in his own way

Let the world add a touch of soft fragrance
