A couple in Chongqing municipality has been caring for the wife's paralyzed ex-husband for 12 years, despite their poverty.

Yang Dong, the husband, married Li Ying in 1993 and he later learned that her former husband, Chen Yong, was paralyzed and alone.

They opened up their house to Chen despite their difficult life and even paid for medical treatments.

They ignored whispers about the arrangement. "We treated Chen as our brother and no matter what other people say, we will take care of Chen forever," Yang said.
