Hans Christian Andersen believed that what an old man does is always right.

But here in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, Wu Junfeng has a slight variation on that theme - he believes his wife is right 100 percent of the time.

The 93-year-old recently disclosed the secret of his harmonious relationship with his bride of 70 years: "Always listen. What she does is always right."

Daughters say their parents seldom quarrel and have set a good example for them to follow.

Last year, the elderly couple celebrated 70 years of marriage.

Wu fell in love at first sight with Zhang, now 91, and still loves her 71 years after tying the knot.
