Parents love lands daughter ticket back home

In Shenzhen of South China's Guangdong province, a woman felt the love of her parents when she was stuck in the battle for a train ticket in the Spring Festival holiday.

Zhao works in a logistics company in Shenzhen. To help the 26-year-old land a train ticket that will take her home, her parents who had zero experience in online shopping learnt how to purchase a ticket on the Internet in one day and waited before the computer screen every morning since Dec 17 for the start of the sales.

After three days, their hard work paid off when the father finally secured a high-speed railway ticket from Shenzhen to Wuhan.
