Xie Laoyuan, born in 1909, is now 108 years old. She is the oldest person of the 52 centenarians living in Longshan village in Guilin, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Meanwhile, she is the healthiest one of them. She likes to go barefoot working in the fields, carrying firewood bundles weighing 30 kilograms up and down the hills, which she can do just as easily as walking on flat ground. Xie has kept the habit of working ever since she was a young girl. When asked about the secret to longevity, she said the most important point is to live a simple life and stay diligent and kind, then let nature take its course.
