(Minghui.org) Xianhui has a special way about her. When she smiles, you can tell from her bright eyes that she is not guarded. You can feel a strong wave of compassion, as if you have just met a long-lost family member.
Xianhui goes out to tell people the facts about Falun Dafa every day. She is never picky about the location or audience, and people agree to quit the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its affiliated organizations after listening to just a few sentences from her.
I'd like to tell you how she overcame many difficulties and how she even helped her “rival.”
Marriage Crisis
Xianhui and her former husband Daqui are 20 days apart in age, and grew up in the same village. After high school, they both became teachers.
Daqui then entered the College of Agricultural Engineering and landed a job in the Agricultural Technology Station. He was transferred to the police department and became a police officer.
Daqui eventually became the chief of the police station, which improved the family’s finances and gave him a higher status in society.
Once Daqui became the director, many people tried to form a connection with him because of his influence, and he received many dinner invitations. Gradually, Daqui was corrupted by the CCP culture. Seeing this, Xianhui tried to persuade him to live with integrity and character.
One day, a woman named Shaojing asked Daqui to help her with getting her car back. Through this process, they got to know one another, and Daqui began an affair with Shaojing. Daqui sometimes spent entire nights out, but Xianhui never suspected him, thinking he had to work.
Daqui once bought Shaojing a pair of shoes, but Shaojing didn't like them. So, Daqui brought the pair of shoes home for Xianhui.
Xianhui thought Daqui had bought these for her and was very happy. She said, “Qui, how come you bought me such expensive shoes? Oh my, they are so expensive. When have I ever worn such expensive shoes?”
Daqui looked at her with mixed feelings and said, “Just wear them.”
Someone told Xianhui that Daqui was having an affair, but Daqui denied it when Xianhui confronted him. Xianhui wasn't convinced about the affair until Shaojing called her house in the middle of the night.
Xianhui was hurt, but she never confronted Shaojing.
Forced Divorce
After finding out about the affair, Xianhui's health went downhill. Even worse, she had a car accident and was in coma for several days. She had blood clots in her brain, and suffered agonizing headaches every day.
In 1996, Xianhui heard about Falun Dafa from a relative and started practicing. After practicing Falun Dafa for only a short time, her health was restored.
Daqui also read Zhuan Falun and told others how good Dafa is. A diabetic police station director even started practicing Falun Dafa after hearing about it from Daqui.
When the CCP's persecution of Falun Dafa began in 1999, the police system started participating in the persecution of Dafa practitioners. Xianhui was a target of the county police department, and its deputy director and county 610 Office officials visited her home to demand that she stop practicing Falun Dafa.
Daqui was ordered to make sure that Xianhui renounce her belief. Daqui said, “Choose between me and Dafa.” Xianhui chose Dafa, and Daqui divorced Xianhui at the end of 1999.
Holding the divorce certificate, Daqui told Xianhui, “I'll show this to them so they will stop pressuring me. You and I are not really divorced.”
Xianhui and other practitioners went to Beijing to appeal for the right to practice Falun Dafa in 2000, but she was arrested and sent back. She was then taken to Daqui's police station.
Daqui was furious and tried to coerce Xianhui to write a guarantee statement to not practice Falun Dafa. Xianhui firmly refused, and she was taken to a detention center. Xianhui was soon taken to a notorious forced labor camp.
With Xianhui in the labor camp, Daqui decided to marry Shaojing. They were married on New Year's Day of 2001.
Xianhui was incarcerated at forced labor camps three times, totaling six years. She suffered all kinds of torture, but never gave up practicing Falun Dafa.
Helping Her Rival
Xianhui was released from the labor camp for the third time in 2010. She immersed herself in Falun Dafa activities and she went out every day telling people the facts about Falun Dafa, and that the persecution was wrong.
Both her daughters and daughters-in-law supported her. Her granddaughter often told her, “Granny, let's go out and help people,” and she went out with her.
Xianhui goes out to help people regardless of the weather, and she will speak to anyone she meets, regardless of his or her social status. Her heart is always open, even to Shaojing. She regards Shaojing as someone to help, and she smiles at her sincerely and is considerate of her.
After reading the Falun Dafa materials from Xianhui, Shaojing brought them to work and shared them with her coworkers. She has also read Zhuan Falun.
When the publication of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party triggered a mass wave of quitting the Chinese Communist Party. Xianhui told Shaojing about the significance of it.
Shaojing was touched, and agreed to quit the Party and its affiliated organizations.
Daqui was once very regretful after marrying Shaojing. He wrote to Xianhui and met with her several times, hoping to remarry her. Xianhui did not hate Daqui, as she always remembered him as a family man, hardworking and smart. But to avoid hurting Shaojing and her family, Xianhui turned down Daqui's request.
Daqui gave Xianhui's daughters 10,000 yuan each for their weddings, but gave Shaojing's daughter 100,000 yuan for her wedding. Xianhui's daughters felt resentful, and Xianhui told them, “The predestined relationships between people are different. Take it lightly.”
Xianhui is now very healthy and has not touched medicine for 20 years. Both her daughters have decent jobs and incomes. Shaojing however, has a lot of diseases.
Cultivation practice in Falun Dafa emphasizes Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance. What Xianhui has demonstrated is the behavior of a Dafa practitioner.
