A heart-wrenching video of a Chinese mother carrying her daughter in a delivery box while working as a food delivery rider has gone viral on social media. The 25-year-old mother, surnamed Zhu, has garnered widespread sympathy and attention for her situation.
She carries her 4-year-old daughter, Nuoxi, who is suffering from cancer, during her work, as she cannot afford childcare services. The video caused a sensation on social media platforms after it went viral, garnering sympathy and even donations.
Her Daughter Was Diagnosed With A Tumour
The incident took place in Anhui province, China and an online influencer captured footage of a woman and her child. The mother delivered food on an electric bicycle in the summer heat, carrying her daughter in a box attached to it. According to Zhu, her four-year-old daughter was diagnosed with a tumour two years ago. Her child had undergone three surgeries, nine chemotherapies, and twelve radiotherapies.
What’s In The Video
The video was shared on Instagram by a user named @mustsharenews. “She worried about customer complaints if she took too long, but said every moment with her child was worth it,” the caption of the post read. The description of the clip mentioned, “Mother in China puts sick child in delivery box while working. The 25-year-old mother said that she couldn’t afford childcare, as she is paying for her daughter’s cancer treatment.”

The footage features Zhu carrying her daughter in hot weather through a delivery box attached to her bike. She stated that she occasionally receives complaints for delivering items late, but the difficulties are worth it because she gets to spend time with her daughter. She stated that it warms her heart when her daughter does kind gestures, such as hitting the life button while delivering orders.
Zhu And Her Husband’s Struggle
Zhu and her husband, Guan, who is also a delivery rider, are finding it challenging to balance work and childcare. They can’t afford childcare services, so Zhu takes Nuoxi with her on her delivery rides, placing her in a box attached to her electric bicycle. Guan works full-time and thus is unable to look after his daughter.
How Did Internet React
The now-viral clip won hearts on the internet, garnering numerous reactions and comments from viewers. A user wrote, “Thank you for the kind people lending a helping hand to those in need.” “Pray for her child getting healthy and for her to be smooth and safe in her job,” read another comment.
Response From The Public and Authorities
The video has sparked an outpouring of donations and sympathy from the public. The local government has also responded promptly, helping the family apply for an allowance. Additionally, the food delivery company Meituan has also provided financial aid to the family.
