Decades devoted to her daughter-in-law

A 94-year-old woman in North China's Shanxi province has been praised for her virtue after caring for her partially paralyzed daughter-in-law for almost three decades.

Sun Yincong, from Tai'an village, in Yuncheng's Ruicheng county, has been named one of the province's most moral citizens, local newspaper Sanjin City News reported recently.

Her fellow villagers revere her to such an extent that they have set aside one day each year to celebrate her, the eighth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar.
