--FILE--Zhang, security guard Sun Jies wife, looks on at the door of her home, a converted and solar powered bus, in Songjiang District, Shanghai, China, 26 February 2013. For the past two and a half years, Zhang, a breast cancer patient with no job, has lived with her migrant worker family in an old bus they have refitted with solar power to use as a home in suburban Songjiang District of Shanghai. She said life in the bus is never comfortable or happy, but at least the family managed to have a home in Shanghai, a city which she said is much better than their hometown in Hebei Province. But their lives were interrupted when a local resident saw their refitted home, snapped a picture and posted it on Weibo. Although the post praised the couples skills, it attracted visitors, including local officials who asked them to leave. Zhang calmed down after she was told that the visitors were reporters who would not tow their vehicle. She said she came to Shanghai with her husband, Sun Jie, 39, a retired solider, several years ago from Hebei Province to start a better life and get treatment for her illness. But the cost of living here is too high. My husband earns about 2, 000 yuan (US$321) as a security guard, and we can barely make a life here after paying more than half of that money renting an apartment.
