[Commentary] On October 13, in Shuangliu District, Chengdu, 121-year-old Chengdu oldest old man Zhu Zheng took a photo with his children and grandchildren, and then went to a "thousands-year banquet" at home in a wheelchair.
Nine of the long-lived elderly who attended the party were over a hundred years old.
The "youngest" old man is Zhu Zheng's eldest daughter, but she is also 87 years old this year.
[Explanation] At noon, the longevity elders entered the table with the support of their children and grandchildren. The "Thousand Years Feast" held in celebration of Chongyang Festival officially kicked off.
The old people sat together and greeted each other.
The eldest Zhu Zheng also helped the old man beside him pick vegetables from time to time, and the scene was full of joy.

Happy, (Is it happy in the previous Double Ninth Festival or today? You see so many brothers and sisters come to see you today) Happy, happy today.
[Explanation] With so many centenarians gathered together, "Secrets of Longevity" has naturally become a topic of discussion on the dining table.
Even at 121 years old, Zhu Zheng's appetite is still very good, and he can chat and laugh at the table.
In the eyes of Zhu Zheng’s great-granddaughter Guo Xiujuan, a good mentality and a good appetite are the "secrets of longevity" for the elderly.

She likes us to tell her about the outside (things), such as where we come from playing, she listens very carefully.
We are generally willing to share some with her, and she also likes it very much.
She likes to eat twice-cooked pork and boiled white.
She is actually not too picky about what we eat, that is, she eats whatever we eat.
The centenarians all gathered together, let the old people sit at a table, and held a "thousand years banquet", so that everyone can lively and lively, for them to celebrate the festival.
[Explanation] In order to attend this gathering, the centenarian Yu Zeqin put on a red Tang suit that he would only wear on holidays.
Yu Zeqin's granddaughter, Cai Yunen, said that not accepting the old and loving freshness is the "secret of longevity" for her grandma.

In fact, the Double Ninth Festival is an exclusive festival for the elderly, and there are not too many exclusive festivals for the elderly every year.
I think that for young people’s festivals, in fact, everyone will “make festivals”. I hope that everyone can celebrate the festivals with the elderly just like they do for themselves, and give them more care.
Their peers can communicate with each other, learn from each other's health care experience, and be able to rush together.
