\"EternalPan Tianci and Gao Di, who were born in 1919 and 1920 respectively, have spent 93 years together and <\/span>been married(\u7ed3\u5a5a)<\/strong> <\/span>for 81 years. Gao joined Pan’s family as a <\/span>child bride(\u7ae5\u517b\u5ab3)<\/strong> <\/span>when she was o<\/em>nly two, and later got married at 14. Now they have <\/span>a family boasting four generations(\u56db\u4e16\u540c\u5802)<\/strong> <\/span>and 15 members in total.<\/p>\n

Marriages that have lasted more than 80 years are known as <\/span>“oak marriages”(\u6a61\u6811\u5a5a),<\/strong> <\/span>and are very <\/span>rare(\u7f55\u89c1).<\/strong> <\/span>It is said that o<\/em>nly 20 or so couples in the world have oak marriages. To celebrate Pan and Gao’s “oak marriage”, an anniversary party was held in the village over the weekend.<\/p>\n

Villagers say the couple <\/span>stays in good health(\u8eab\u4f53\u5065\u5eb7),<\/strong> <\/span>and the two of them usually <\/span>hang out(\u6e9c\u8fbe) hand in hand(\u624b\u62c9\u624b).<\/strong>According to their 67-year old son, Pan and Gao have alwaysrespected each other(\u4e92\u76f8\u5c0a\u91cd)<\/strong> <\/span>and never <\/span>lost temper(\u53d1\u813e\u6c14)<\/strong>in the past, <\/span>setting a good example(\u6811\u7acb\u699c\u6837)<\/strong> <\/span>for their progeny.<\/p>\n
