On the next day, he brought two roses to Liu. It was the first time he had gifted flowers to his wife. In the evening of that day, he wrote a letter to Liu, and rewrote the letter the next morning. "He thought the first draft was not that profound," said Tang's youngest son.

Tang gave the letter to his wife in the afternoon of Feb 16, and asked a nurse to read it for Liu. "It's very moving. It echoes an old Chinese saying 'holding one's hands and growing old together'," said a nurse on the scene.

"We are very close. I'm very happy that he gifted me flowers and the letter," said Liu.

"(Liu's) condition has improved a lot. The doctor said she could leave hospital in a few days," said a relative of Liu.

Tang and Liu met each other via other's introduction more than 60 years ago and both felt happy with each other. Tang recalled that they were very poor at the time, and they married without rings, banquets and even new clothes.

Tang said his wife takes a good care of him. She usually lets him eat first and she eats whatever he leaves or just gives him all.

Because Tang has a bad leg, he uses wheelchair when going out. His wife usually carries the wheelchair down to the ground floor and then helps Tang go downstairs, and pushes him to go to parks. "She does not let me walk by myself as she fears I will stumble and fall down,” said Tang.
