Hello Trung1007,


It sounds like older messages have disappeared and you can only see the last few days. If you have been storing your messages in iCloud, check out this link to make sure its enabled.


Keep all your messages in iCloud


If you iPhone storage is completely full then sometimes messages can be offloaded for space. Check out this link to view storage on your device.


How to check the storage on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch


You can have messages after a certain point automatically delete. Settings > Messages > Keep Messages


Cheers!
