His daughter, Ms. Zhang Jianhui, was sentenced to prison for ten years and is currently being held in the Harbin City Women's Prison. His wife, Ms. Yao Caiwei, has been arrested many times, sentenced to forced labor camps twice, and longs for her husband and the return of her daughter. These experiences have caused her to show the symptoms of cerebral thrombosis. Her left leg and hand have lost all sensation, her tongue is so stiff that she can't speak clearly, her vision is getting dramatically worse, her facial expression is distorted, and her eyes are unable to move or shed tears. Whenever someone mentions her family, Ms. Yao would look like she's about to cry, but no tears would come out.
