paris paralympic "seven-time gold medalist" jiang yuyan returns home with honors
sleeping until she wakes up naturally, eating "mom's food", playing and fighting with her little nieces... during this mid-autumn festival holiday, jiang yuyan, who won seven gold medals at the paris paralympic games, lived a comfortable and happy life at her home in shaoxing.
jiang yuyan is usually busy with training and competitions, and has not been home for the mid-autumn festival since 2018. "i am very happy to be able to go home and rest for a while after the trip to paris and have a reunion dinner with my family during the mid-autumn festival." jiang yuyan said with full expectation that she would take advantage of the vacation to travel with her family and spend time with her parents.
jiang yuyan bought gifts for the whole family in paris, "filling up a suitcase". the two little nieces received red school bags with olympic elements, and they carried them wherever they went these days. "as soon as i entered the house, the two little ones would jump into my arms affectionately." jiang yuyan said happily that the three of them were together every day, making a lot of noise, and the house was full of laughter.
wang zhifang, the mother, had not seen her daughter for nearly a year. her words were full of heartache for her daughter. "i felt particularly distressed when i saw her win the championship through tv despite the discomfort. i felt even more distressed when i saw her look particularly tired when she returned home." wang zhifang told reporters that when her daughter came back this time, she wanted her to have a good rest, sleep well, and eat more of her favorite dishes.
"after returning home, my mother asks me what i want to eat every day, but i always want to sleep and rest." jiang yuyan said with a smile that every day after waking up, she can always eat home-cooked dishes made by her mother, such as sweet and sour spare ribs, stir-fried rice cake with swimming crab, and stir-fried green beans with dried vegetables. "this is the taste i miss most during training and competitions."
in the past two days, many relatives and friends came to visit jiang yuyan, and naturally they had mooncakes in their hands. "of course we have to eat mooncakes during the mid-autumn festival!" jiang yuyan said mischievously. she tasted all the mooncakes one by one, and her favorite flavors were the lava custard and egg yolk lotus paste.
looking back on her trip to paris when the moon was full, jiang yuyan described it as "perfect". in the 10-day swimming competition, jiang yuyan participated in 9 events. she was very tired in the second half of the competition, but she felt that "since i'm here, i must persevere to the end". in the end, she won 7 gold medals, broke 2 world records and 3 paralympic records, and became the player with the most gold medals in the chinese delegation. "it was due to three years of hard work and extraordinary performance during the competition, and also the enthusiastic encouragement of the audience, especially the chinese audience," said jiang yuyan.
"if i were to rate jiang yuyan's performance at the paris paralympics, i'd give her 120 points." jiang yuyan's outstanding performance won praise from her first coach, shaoxing swimming team leader shan yonggang. shan yonggang said that jiang yuyan has won a total of 9 gold medals in two paralympics. given her age and competitive level, she is expected to participate in two or three paralympics and win more honors for the country.
"the care and support from my hometown people and the love and concern from my family and friends make me feel that i have a strong backing and i just need to be brave and confident to move forward." jiang yuyan, a student at beijing sports university, has already made plans for the next olympic cycle. she said that after a short rest at home, she will forget about her past achievements and continue to live, study and train seriously, striving to become an all-around athlete who can run both long and short distances.
"four years from now, i will still be in the swimming pool in los angeles," jiang yuyan said firmly.
