Article abstract: Content related to health preservation and wellness, raising flowers and planting grass makes the elderly feel younger. Let's learn about it together next.

Wu Yi Mountain's 85-year-old Zhang Baosheng once had three serious illnesses, each of which almost took his life. However, on October 7th, when I met the old man again, I found that he was still walking briskly. Mr. Zhang Baosheng himself says he is "living younger."

Dozens of flowers, such as roses, jasmines, plum blossoms, and white magnolias, are lined up in Mr. Zhang Baosheng's less than 8-square-meter balcony, filled with various flower pots.

After retiring in 1987, Mr. Zhang Baosheng became fascinated with raising orchids and found the knack for it. In the first orchid exhibition held in Wuyi Mountain in 1997, he stood out among thousands of orchids with a pot of cold orchid he had raised for over ten years, winning the title of "Overall Runner-up." For a time, he gained some fame in the orchid circles of Wuyi Mountain, and many young orchid enthusiasts纷纷 sought his advice.

“Loving orchids is why I raise them; the fragrance of orchids makes one feel relaxed and happy.” This is Mr. Zhang's sentiment. Once he started talking, he shared his insights on raising flowers with me, “Moving flower pots, getting rid of pests, watering, and so on can all make you get your hands dirty. Therefore, in addition to refining one's sentiment with the fragrance of flowers, it can also exercise the body!”

“Comb your hair, pull your forehead, stretch your waist, and tap your legs……” Every morning at six, Mr. Zhang Baosheng and his wife practice their self-invented fitness exercises in their room. After finishing the exercises, they go together to the market to buy groceries. The couple always stick together like shadows, and Mr. Zhang says that he and his wife have never quarreled. When something happens, they take a step back and forth, turning trouble into nothing immediately. The couple has five children, four girls and one boy, all of whom have grown up and started their own families, living a harmonious and beautiful life. After retirement, the two old people enjoy this family happiness, living a simple, regular, and rhythmic life in their own old house.
