  Zheng lost her father at age 9 and received no education. From an early age, and to support her family, she tried her hand at all kinds of labor-intensive work usually reserved for men, ranging from raising pigs to farming and fishing.

  At 80 years old, she travelled alone to Hong Kong. Two years later, she visited Taiwan by herself, taking a ship and various flights. To make her family members feel at ease, she lied that she was traveling with a group.
  80岁时,她独自去香港旅游。两年后她又一个人去了台湾,坐船,尝试各种航班。为了让家人们放心,她说谎自己是跟团去的。
  She now keeps a good routine every day, starting her morning with exercise and drinking tea. Sometimes she takes a bus for four hours to buy her favorite wine.
