In the dining car, Zheng Zhangqin skillfully rounded the dough one by one on his hand and stuck it into the furnace wall.
Outside the dining car, his wife Xiang Yanfei carefully packed the biscuits and delivered them to the customers.
From the choice of taste to paying for the bill, all gestures were used, without verbal communication.
Behind the "silent" biscuits is the couple's endless love for their children.
Zheng Zhangqin and Xiang Yanfei are a deaf-mute couple. In 2016, the eldest son Zheng Weiwei, who is less than three years old, was diagnosed with acute leukemia.
In order to treat the child's illness, the couple sold their house and car and owed foreign debts.
In order to take care of the sick child, the couple gave up going out.

In 2019, Zheng Zhangqin went to Xiatang Town, Changfeng County, Hefei through a friend's introduction to learn how to make sesame cakes and run a biscuits dining car.
Zheng Zhangqin and his wife got up at 5 in the morning and went to bed at 11 or 12 at night, rain or shine.
Zheng Zhangqin's arm was often burned by the fire, but he always insisted.
According to Zheng Zhangqin's mother, Zhang Enfang, his son usually suffers from hardship. He sets out to set up a stall every morning before dawn. He cooks his breakfast before leaving and puts away the children's clothes and bags.
The hard work of the son and daughter-in-law is seen by the parents and hurt in their hearts.
In order to reduce the burden of life for the young couple, Zheng Zhangqin and Xiang Yanfei's parents will take turns to take care of their two grandchildren.
Now, the eldest grandson Zheng Weiwei is in the first grade of elementary school, and the younger grandson is also four years old.
The two children grow up healthy and happy is the biggest wish of Zheng Zhangqin's family.
