An incredible love story has emerged from China recently
and managed to touch the world. It is a story of a man and
an older woman who ran off to live and love each other in
peace for over half a century.
The 70 year old Chinese man hand-carved more than 6,000
stairs up a mountain for his 80 year old wife and has passed
away in the cave which has been the couple’s home
for the last 50 years.
More than 50 years ago, a 19 year-old Liu Guo Jiang fell
in love with a 29 year-old widowed mother named Xu Chao
Qin.
In a twist worthy of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet,
friends and relatives criticized the relationship because
of their age difference and the fact that Xu already had
children.
At that time, it was unacceptable and immoral for a young
man to love an older woman. To avoid the market gossip and
the scorn of their communities, the couple decided to elope
and lived in a cave in Jiang Jin County in Southern Chong
Qing Municipality.
