Fan Pingxian, 64, retiree

This year, we will celebrate Spring Festival in Anyang, Henan province. For me, seeing family members gathered together is the most important thing about the Chinese New Year celebrations.

I moved to Anyang from my hometown, Pingdingshan, also in Henan, in 2010 when my daughter gave birth to her first child, and I wanted to do my best to help her.

My daughter gave birth to her second child in November, and she is on maternity leave. Just days ago, she thanked me for being at her side. She said the arrival of the second child has made her life much busier than before.

I am glad I came to help, even though it means cooking three meals a day, taking my first granddaughter to school and doing some housework every day. I also tutor my first granddaughter, who is now a primary school student, although English is a course I cannot help with.

I did all these things to ease the burden on my daughter, who usually goes to sleep at midnight after feeding time and putting the new baby to bed.

The new baby has brought us a great deal of happiness, and we now have more fun and laughter around us.

It's my new year wish that every family member will stay healthy.
