(Minghui.org) A man named Gu Cheng lived in Jinling in March of 1654, during the reign of the second emperor of the Qing Dynasty. His daughter-in-law was surnamed Qian.
Qian had returned to her parents’ home in a neighboring village for a visit when an outbreak of the plague erupted in Gu Cheng's village.
Even close relatives were afraid to pass by or visit the village, and, unfortunately, Gu Cheng and his wife were infected with the disease. In rapid succession, eight family members, including several sons and daughters-in-law in the family, also became infected. Confined to their beds, they gasped for their last breaths.
After learning that her mother-in-law and other family members were suffering from the plague, Qian hurriedly prepared to return to take care of them. Her parents pleaded with her to stay with them to avoid the fatal disease.
“My husband married me to take care of his elderly parents. How can I ignore them now when I know they are critically ill? What's the difference between me and a beast if I do so? I have to go back and take care of them. Even if I die, there will be nothing to regret,” she said. She hurried back to her husband's family home.
As she reached Gu Cheng's home, she heard a voice say: “Divine beings are protecting this virtuous woman. Let's hide, quickly.”
All of Gu Cheng's family members recovered a short time later.
