徐德娣(徐婆)19歲時從石壁大村嫁來水口村,但丈夫早逝,她獨力養育三個子女。徐婆愛唱山歌,憶記生活況味。耕田、掘沙白、打蠔、釣魚等,她樣樣皆精,後來亦參與修建石壁水塘的引水道,村民都十分欣賞她的毅力和樂觀性格。

陳鎮祥
Chen Chun-cheung (Uncle Cheung) was born in Shanghai in 1931. At the age of nine, he was adopted by a Chen family in Shui Hau and has lived in Shui Hau Village ever since. In his youth, Uncle Cheung made a living from farming, growing rice, pineapples and sugar apples, and by raising livestock such as pigs and chickens. He frequently travelled between Shui Hau and Cheung Chau to sell crops and buy daily necessities. He also helped build a section of South Lantau Road that runs between Shek Pik Reservoir and Tong Fuk. In middle age, he secured a job at the Waterworks Office, where he remained until retiring at 65. Nowadays, he spends his free time growing vegetables on a small farm and has planted a wampee tree in front of his home. He finds joy in his own way.

Born in 1946, Fung Shui-chun is a native of Shui Hau Village. Her father Fung Yau-shing served as the village head after the war. Fung, also known as Sister Chun, was a labourer on the Shek Pik Reservoir project. At the age of 20, she began working in plastic and garment factories in Tsuen Wan. With a wide circle of friends, Sister Chun loved going out and meeting new people. In her younger years, she would gather herbs from the hills and then walk all the way to Mui Wo to catch the ferry to Hong Kong Island, where she sold the herbs to Chinese medicine shops. Sometimes she would accompany her father to social events to meet government officials, hang out at his friends’ shops, and also ride the tram for fun.

黃九斤
Born in 1950, Wong Kau-kan (Uncle Kau) has lived in Tai O all his life. His grandfather moved from Dongguan to Hong Kong and settled in Tai O. He founded a funeral service business that served the entire South Lantau area, including Shui Hau Village. At the age of 16, Uncle Kau began working alongside his father, learning on the job.
