Luo Menglong: 13333658959 Wang Jiaxin: 13037652175

Xichuan County, Nanyang City, Henan Province, is located at the junction of Henan, Hubei and Shaanxi provinces. It is the location of Danjiangkou Reservoir, an important water source of the South to North Water Transfer Project, and is also a national poor county. Education is an important way for many poor students to get out of poverty, and it is also the most important means for the local government to help the poor.

In this year's college entrance examination, more than 800 students in the county passed one, nearly double the number of last year. Five students went to Beijing University of Tsinghua University, and one of them became the first science student in Nanyang City, and he was also the first municipal science "champion" in Xichuan County. Today, we will go into his story first.

Poor families walk out of the top science student's father is seriously ill but gives up treatment

Luo Menglong is a junior high school graduate of the No. 1 High School in Xichuan County, Nanyang City. In this year's college entrance examination, he scored 685 points, becoming the first in science in Nanyang City, and was admitted to the Department of Automation of Tsinghua University. Getting into China's top university is the dream of countless high school students, and also the biggest reward for Luo Menglong's more than ten years of struggle. But this joy only stayed for a short time, and the 17-year-old boy's heart was heavy with worries.

Luo Menglong's home is in Luozhai Village, Shangji Town, Xichuan County. When Luo Menglong was less than one year old, his mother ran away from home and never came back. His father and grandmother raised him. His father Luo Suichang, who used to work on the construction site in the county, earned about 2000 yuan a month and could support his family. But just three years ago, when his child was just admitted to high school, Luo Suichang suddenly suffered from bilateral femoral head necrosis, and his condition continued to worsen. Over the past two years, he could barely stay in bed, and even living on his own became increasingly difficult. The pillar of the family fell down, and the whole family could only rely on the subsistence allowance of 550 yuan per month for three people.

Under such poor conditions, Luo Menglong has been studying hard. It has always been his dream to enter the key university, and it is also his father's greatest expectation on his bed. Luo Suichang was even more nervous than his son when he waited for the college entrance examination.

Luo Menglong's father: Suddenly their head teacher called. When I saw that it was their head teacher, I asked the child to answer it. The child asked and said that his grades had come out. He said that he was the 14th in Henan Province. At that time, it was just a place. After that, he was very happy.

As a father, Luo Suichang always felt very sorry. For three years, he could not even pay 1600 yuan for each semester of his child's tuition. Fortunately, Luo Menglong's alma mater, Xichuan No. 1 High School, reduced all his tuition fees after learning about his family, which enabled him to successfully complete his high school studies and become the first science student in the city. Luo Zhuchang is uneducated. Before he fell ill, he only worked in Xichuan County. He seldom came to Nanyang City, let alone the capital Beijing. How he hoped to send his son to Beijing in person and enter the gate of China's top university. But now it seems that this is an impossible task.

In fact, Luo Menglong also has an apology for his father. Over the years, his father has been reluctant to spend money on medicine to help him go to school.

In order to save money, Luo Zhuchang stopped all the medicine he should take. He never went to the hospital even when the pain was unbearable. Until the success report of the college entrance examination came, the self striving champion moved many local people. Nanyang Orthopaedic Hospital learned about Luo Menglong's father's condition and sent Luo Suichang for treatment, which also realized Luo Menglong's greatest wish.

After more than a week of treatment, Luo Zhuchang has been able to walk on crutches. Although the doctor promised that he would continue to pay attention to his condition, Luo Suichang is not optimistic. In recent years, he has owed more than 100000 yuan in foreign debt due to medical treatment. Now he is more worried about how to raise the tuition and living expenses of more than 10000 yuan a year for his children's college education?

After leaving the hospital in Nanyang, father and son returned to their home in Luozhai Village, Xichuan County. Thinking about the cost of their children's college education, Luo Suichang lay at home, worried. There was no savings at home. He hesitated again and again, but dialed a phone number he was reluctant to dial.

Luo Menglong's father: You are not rich now. I want to raise some tuition fees for my son to take with him on the way to see how you are. No matter if you can't, I must understand. It's OK.

This is Luo Suichang's former friend. Since he was ill, he has borrowed money more than once, and has not paid it back. Today, he also felt embarrassed when he forced himself to open his mouth again.

Luo Menglong's father: I borrowed 20000 yuan before, but I paid back 6000 yuan.

After searching through the address book, Luo Suichang hesitated to call again.

Luo Menglong's father: I'm sorry to open my mouth to you again. I want you to do me another favor

But this time, Luo Suichang also failed to borrow money because he still owed the other party more than 20000 yuan. The way to borrow money is not feasible. Luo Suichang looks at his legs and is silent for a long time.

Compared with his father, Luo Menglong is much more optimistic. He has already inquired about it for himself. He can help himself to pay the tuition and accommodation fees needed during his study at school by applying for a student origin credit loan. The so-called student origin credit loan is a kind of student aid loan issued by the state to college freshmen and current students whose families are in financial difficulties. There is no need for guarantee and mortgage. In principle, the loan term is determined by the full-time undergraduate and junior college education plus 10 years, and the maximum is 14 years. The interest of students in school is fully subsidized by the government.

Luo Menglong: You can apply for a loan at that time, interest free loan. If it is not enough, work study programs, student grants, scholarships and so on.

However, the cost of father's treatment is still like a heavy stone weighing heavily on Luo Menglong's heart.

Luo Menglong: Try to earn a scholarship. If you earn a scholarship, you will definitely get some for your family. Let them all have a simpler and happier life.

The daughter of a teacher in a mountain village was admitted to Tongji University with high marks, but her family didn't have any money to save

On Luo Menglong's young shoulders, he carries heavy responsibilities. He is eager to change himself and the fate of his family through reading, so that his father and grandmother can live a simple, relaxed and happy life. Next, we need to know a female classmate. She is Luo Menglong's classmate. She was admitted to Tongji University in this year's college entrance examination. Her family is also poor. What kind of study story does she have from deep in the mountains?

As soon as the seniors left the campus, the freshmen had already registered for school. This day

Wang Jiaxin, a senior high school graduate from the No. 1 High School in Xichuan County, brought her brother Wang Zhongqiang, a freshman in senior high school, to report for duty. As soon as we walked into the school gate, we could see the red list of this year's college entrance examination. Wang Jiaxin ranked tenth in the school with a good score of 640, and was admitted to the Department of Physics of Tongji University in Shanghai. But his younger brother was admitted to his alma mater with good results in the middle school entrance exam this year. Wang Jiaxin was even happier than he was admitted to a famous university.

When Wang Jiaxin and his sister and brother were very young, their mother ran away from home and never came back. Since then, they and their father have lived together. His father is a village teacher in the village, and his salary is only 1000 yuan per month. The sister and brother both go to school in the county town. No matter how thrifty they are, they need 400 yuan per month for living expenses and books. Every school season is my father's most worried time.

In the past three years, Xichuan No. 1 High School has exempted all the tuition fees for Wang Jiaxin, allowing her to successfully complete her high school studies. Considering the poor family background, Wang Jiaxin brought his brother to report today and found Sun Ke, the head teacher. He hoped that the school would continue to exempt his brother's tuition fees. In Sun Ke's impression, Wang Jiaxin's life is extremely frugal, and he is reluctant to spend an extra penny.

Sun Ke: A meal may cost two or three yuan. No matter what difficulties you encounter, if you don't bow down, there is no food to eat. If you help the school sell food, the teacher in the canteen will let her eat without paying the tuition fee. You can find a way to find the teacher and the school.

The head teacher was most impressed by Wang Jiaxin, who never bowed his head and always actively tried to solve problems. Shortly after his college entrance examination results came out this year, Wang Jiaxin spent 50 yuan on a train to Xi'an, stayed at a relative's home, and worked in a restaurant to earn his tuition.

In order to settle her brother's enrollment, Wang Jiaxin hurried back from Xi'an. Seeing the teacher's affirmative answer, she finally put her heart down.

Early the next morning, Wang Jiaxin set out to go home. Her home was in Luzhuang Village, Shengwan Town. Although it was in Xichuan County, it took her 3-4 hours to go home each time.

Xichuan County, Henan Province, is the location of Danjiangkou Reservoir, the source of the South to North Water Diversion Project. The endless Danjiangkou Reservoir and the endless Funiu Mountains are the barriers between here and the outside world.

When Wang Jiaxin went home, he had to take a bus for more than an hour, and then boarded the ferry to Shengwan Town on the other side of the reservoir. From the town to the village, there would be no public transportation, so he had to rely on his father to ride three wheels of a motorcycle to take her home.

On that day, Wang Jiaxin's father was teaching in the mountain and couldn't pick her up. Half an hour Economy reporter and Wang Jiaxin finally arrived at Luzhuang Village, Shengwan Town after more than an hour of mountain road driving.

The sound of reading is coming from Luzhuang Primary School in Luzhuang Village. The 50 year old mountain village teacher, Wang Zhenguo, is also Wang Jiaxin's father. Because it is too far away from the central primary school, children over three years old in the village will come here to study, and then transfer to Yuanping Central Primary School in the third grade of primary school. Wang Zhenguo is the only teacher in Luzhuang Village. The other three or four teachers have left this difficult place in succession. If he also left, the nine children in the classroom would have no teachers. After 30 years of teaching, he was the first teacher of thousands of mountain dolls, but his most proud student was his daughter Wang Jiaxin, the first student ever admitted to a famous university in Luzhuang Village.

Today the temperature reached 39 degrees, but Wang Zhenguo on the platform was meticulous. His clothes had been soaked several times, but he was unaware of it. Near noon, Wang Zhenguo had to hurry to cook for the children. The temperature in the kitchen was more than 40 degrees. Seeing that Dad was soaked through, Wang Jiaxin hurried to fan him. She usually goes to school in the county town and seldom goes home, but she knows very well that her father works hard as both a teacher and a kitchen master every day.

Wang Zhenguo: As a person in the mountains, I should do something for the children in the mountains. My greatest expectation is that I can become a talent, go out, and make contributions to the society with my own skills.

Wang Jiaxin's house is a dilapidated wooden house with a history of 30 years. The sister, brother and father are crowded in this room. A small low table in the outer room is where the sister and brother learn. In this dilapidated family, only from the thick stack of awards on the wall and the books on my father's desk can we see the family's love and desire for knowledge.

Back home, Wang Jiaxin didn't have time to rest. He picked up his father's dirty clothes and went to wash them. Over the years, my father has become a father, a mother, a farmer, a teacher, and a big drag on them. The coronary heart disease is getting heavier and heavier, with more and more white hair and a hunched back. Wang Jiaxin's eyes ache in her heart, and she hopes to share more for her father.

Watching his daughter busy in and out, Wang Zhenguo hesitated for a long time before he spoke. He wanted to discuss the tuition with his daughter, which is also his biggest worry at the moment. These years, he has been living frugally to support the two children. The family has no savings.

The sensible Wang Jiaxin always comforted her father not to worry. She earned seven or eight hundred yuan by working in Xi'an. Now she can help with school and home work, and can go back to the county to continue working. She felt that if she stayed at home before school, she would lose a share of her income. Although Wang Jiaxin didn't want his father to always go out to borrow money, Wang Zhenguo still wanted to try, but he ran several houses and only borrowed a few hundred yuan from the village. Wang Zhenguo knew the villagers' family background, and he was grateful for the money. However, he was far from his goal of four or five thousand yuan.

While Wang Jiaxin and his father were running around for money, a good news came that the Xichuan County Party Committee and Government proposed the establishment of the Love Student Fund, which donated grants to the first batch of poor students with outstanding achievements. On that day, Wang Jiaxin received 3000 yuan and Luo Menglong received 5000 yuan in the donation ceremony at the No. 1 High School in Xichuan County.

With the help of the school, Wang Jiaxin successfully applied for a student loan of credit from the student origin in Xichuan County Student Assistance Center. The 6000 yuan loan to be received will cover her tuition and accommodation fees for the first year of college.

Lu Weiwei, secretary of the CPC Xichuan County Party Committee, said that there are 60474 people in Xichuan County, and there are many poor people. However, we have a narrow path out of poverty. It can be said that we cannot raise fish with water, or graze with mountains.

Therefore, our task of poverty alleviation is extremely arduous. For three consecutive years, we have invested more than 500 million yuan in education every year, so that no student in Xichuan will drop out of school because of poverty.

Half hour observation

Coming from a crippled and poor family, the two students turned in a beautiful answer to the college entrance examination with optimism, sunshine and self-improvement. In Xichuan County, where they live, the government, schools and every family are committed to putting education poverty alleviation at an important position. This year, more than 800 students in the county were admitted to one college, and more than 300 of them were poor students. Education has opened a window for these poor students. The national student funding system has been constantly improved, and local governments have further attached importance to and invested in education, It is all to "prevent any student from dropping out of school due to poverty". "Education changes destiny" is not only a personal perception of their own development needs, but also a strong promotion of the country's will. I wish these poor students who have experienced life hardships can see the most beautiful rainbow as soon as possible.
