  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.
  郑奶奶9岁丧父,没能上学受教育。从幼年开始,为了支持一家人的生活,她就做过了各种男性干的工作,从养猪到耕地到捕鱼样样都行。

  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.
