Somewhere in China there is an elderly couple that practices Falun Gong. The woman went to Beijing in 1999 to appeal and validate Dafa. Afterwards she was arrested and sent to her local police station, where corrupt officials demanded over 1,000 Yuan (translator's note: an average urban worker's monthly salary is about 500 Yuan) before they would release her. Because this couple is very poor, the old man had no recourse but to borrow the money. He first went to his younger daughter's mother-in-law's home. However, not only did they not lend him the money but they also derided him and slandered Dafa. So the old man went to his elder daughter's mother-in-law's home. This relative's family not only comforted him but also loaned him the money.
The younger daughter's in-laws are in the bean curd business. Late one evening at the beginning of August 2001, the bean curd-making room, for no apparent reason, suddenly caught fire. It was such a shock that this couple even forgot to call their neighbors to help them to extinguish the fire. As a result, the man suffered serious burns on his leg, had to be hospitalized, and ended up spending over 10,000 Yuan in medical fees.
On the other hand, the kind in-laws of the elder daughter are flourishing; both in beauty and in possessions, all are safe and sound.
This is a true story of what happened to me. Here I sincerely want to advise people to make a clear distinction between right and wrong and to treat Falun Gong practitioners kindly. Good is rewarded with good and evil is met with evil. Nothing escapes the balance.
