"Children can't freeze to death in such a cold day!" With this idea in mind, Li Xianyu picked up the baby and carefully carried it home. After returning home, her husband, Zhao Liniu, was really shocked when he saw the baby in his wife's arms. He thought that the baby was too unlucky to live. Li Xianyu said that the Chinese New Year is coming. The child is so pathetic. Let him stay for the Chinese New Year. The kind-hearted Zhao Liniu didn't think much about it. He agreed to his wife's request and went to the drugstore to buy medicine for burns in the wind and snow.
one thousand nine hundred and ninety In, Li Xianyu remarried from Sichuan to Xiangyang, Hubei. Although leaving her violent ex husband made her happy again, her failure to raise her own children in person has become a deep pain in her heart. "I have always felt guilty about my children, and sometimes I feel selfish." Li Xianyu wept when talking about the children with her ex husband. It is this debt that she is willing to adopt a baby who has suffered a lot without regret.

Li Xianyu and her current husband, Zhao Liniu, have no children. They grow vegetables in the greenhouse together and live in a tight situation. After the New Year, the couple went to the local hospital for treatment with their children in their arms, but they were scared back by the high cost. The doctor said that the treatment of children's faces should be at least tens of thousands, but they only have money on hand one thousand About RMB.

After the operation, snow becomes on the face 90% Almost all the scars disappeared, leaving only some surgical incisions.
