(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Cheng Aiyang, 40 years old, is a kindhearted housewife who lives in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province. She started cultivating Falun Dafa in 1998. She attained a healthy body, and became a good person by following Truthfulness, Benevolence, and Forbearance. After the brutal persecution to Falun Gong started on July 20, 1999, she and her husband endured numerous hardships. They were both sentenced to forced labor just because they kept practicing Falun Gong. The apartment allocated to them by her husband's work unit was taken away, her husband lost his job, and their daughter was forced to become homeless.
One evening in July 2000, an officer from the local police station deceived Ms. Cheng Aiyang and her husband, and the police sent both of them to a forced labor camp, each to serve a term of two years. Their daughter was in junior high, and she lost her home and had to live in other people's homes.
When Ms. Cheng Aiyang and her husband were released from the labor camp in 2001, their apartment was gone and they could not find work. They had to live under extremely difficult conditions. They visited government offices and tried to get help, but to no avail. Her husband's health was not good, so Ms. Cheng had to do sewing and mending work to make a living for her family.
On September 8, 2005, police from the local Shatou Station suddenly came to their home, found some Falun Dafa materials, and then arrested her again. The police also tried to arrest her husband at his work place, but he was away on a business trip. He avoided being arrested, but had to become destitute and homeless in order to avoid further persecution. Their teenage daughter in high school suddenly had no resources or parents to take care of her.
