In 1937 my family lived at 8 Diaoyu Lane,and there were my parents, elder brother and younger brother. My father Yan Yifu was a bricklayer, and my mother Yan Hu was a household woman.My elder brother Yan Baohe was over 30 at that time,selling cakes and vegetables at Yaojia Lane.
One day, the Japanese troops entered the refugee zone,driving out the young people there,including my elder brother.They escorted these people to Xiaguan,and killed them with machine guns.
