Wang told local media that she ran out of her home when the tremors began. A driver, whose truck was out of gas, asked her to hide in his vehicle. From there, she called her husband Feng Yong, who was stationed in neighboring Guizhou province.
Fortunately, Wang's mother found her soon after the quake hit and started building a shelter for themselves. Three other tubes stood side by side, sheltering other quake survivors. Wang's neighbors said she had sent water and cucumbers to the rescuers.
"But they sent the food back," Wang said, smiling shyly.
Wang has managed to contact her husband. At a program broadcast live on China Central Television at midnight on Saturday, host Bai Yansong called both Wang and Feng.
The couple called out: "Laogong (husband), I love you!" "Laopo (wife), I love you too!"
Wang's mother, also an elementary school teacher, said she would go back to teach at her Jiangyou school once conditions have stabilized.
Wang declined the local government's offer to take care of her.
She plans to move with her mother to the school grounds and live in tents with other teachers.
