The Old Folks of Huagou Village

When we were on a photography expedition at the Dongchuan Hongtudi (东川红土地) region of Yunnan Province (云南省), we took one afternoon to roam around the village where our hostel is situated. The village is called Huigou Village (花沟村). When we were moving around, we found an old couple that the husband was paralysed. The wife was taking care of the husband all by herself. Although life was not easy, the couple was contented with their lives in the village.

Later in the afternoon after visiting a local primary school, we also met with another old folk who was living alone. We chatted with him and my travelmate offered him cigarretes. His life was simple and can be considered subsistence, but he was happy with his life.
