Shi Si and his wife Susanna are a model couple. When he is preparing for the lecture, his wife often helps him collect information, write manuscripts and learn from each other, which makes him full of interest and does not feel tired. No wonder Shi Si said to Susanna more than once, "I love you twice as much as when I first got married." Unfortunately, after ten years of successful life, Susan became weak from overwork. She was ill in bed for sixteen years, but they never complained. The biggest disadvantage of our company is that we like smoking cigars and are very addicted to them. Once he went out for a walk and saw a can of tobacco displayed in the window of a shop. The label said, "Four Town Tobacco", which reminded him of the commemoration left by people after his death. Does he smoke like tobacco? Or Si Buzhen who preached the Lord Jesus? For the glory of God, I went home and burned all the smoking utensils, and never smoked again. So whether you eat or drink, whatever you do, do it for the glory of the Lord. 10: 3 1)
Si Buzhen's son Thomas and his grandson followed in his footsteps and devoted themselves to missionary work since their youth. Shi Si died in 1892 at the age of 58. There was a Bible on his coffin, which was his favorite book in his life.
