Su Mingjuan, a girl with big eyes: 29 years ago, a photo changed my life. What now?

The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu.

Children from countless poor families are eager to change their destiny through reading, set foot on the bridge of reading and reach the other side of hope.

Many people feel deja vu in this picture. The little girl with fluffy hair, hopeful eyes, pen in hand and paper on the desk all tell her desire for knowledge. She is eager to go to school to study. ...

Leonardo da vinci once said: The natural desire of good people is knowledge. And this classic photo of "I want to go to school" has also become a propaganda photo of the Hope Project that touched countless people. Now, where is the girl with big eyes in the photo, Su Mingjuan?

Did she read and write at will, and did she change her destiny through knowledge?

0 1 Reading dreams in the depths of mountains

Jinzhai County, Lu 'an City, Anhui Province, located in the western border of Anhui Province and the hinterland of Dabie Mountain, is the second largest general county in China. Once known as "the cradle of the Red Army and the hometown of generals", it is an old revolutionary base, but it is also the largest and most populous mountainous county in Anhui Province. It was not until April 2020 that the poverty-stricken counties were withdrawn.

Su Mingjuan was born in such a deep mountain in 1983. Although China has implemented nine-year compulsory education since 1986, not every family can let their children receive education without burden. This promotion and progress is still relatively slow.

The more backward, the poorer, the poorer, the more backward. In order to make a living, Su Mingjuan's parents do all the dirty work, such as raising silkworms, farming and fishing, but those who often rely on coolies can only struggle to get enough to eat.

Life is very difficult. With the growth of Su Mingjuan, the tuition of more than 65,438+000 yuan per semester has become the biggest burden for the family.

At the age of seven, she went to a local primary school. The classroom with bright windows made her see the light of hope. She is eager to go to school, to learn, and to travel in the ocean of knowledge. However, she also knows that she needs her parents' efforts to walk into the campus. Reading is her dream, but when her parents drag their tired bodies home every day, she is very distressed. ...

She wants to change this situation, but at this time, she is just a helpless child. In addition to studying hard and helping her parents do housework within her power, she can only look up at a pair of clear and innocent eyes. ...

Even in today's information age, stories deep in the mountains are not easy to cross the mountains and enter the public's field of vision. Moreover, at that time, all communications and transportation were still relatively backward, but Su Mingjuan was lucky, and her longing voice unexpectedly spread all over the country.

A photo is a reading dream.

199 1 year, Jie Hailong, a famous photojournalist, came to Dabie Mountain in Anhui Province for a tour. Su Mingjuan met him by mistake and was photographed as "I want to go to school".

With the publication of the photos, her hopeful eyes deeply touched the people of the whole country, but she and her family in the mountains knew nothing about it.

China is a country of etiquette, full of kindness. Looking at such a curious child, who won't lend a helping hand as long as they have the ability?

If you are poor, you will be immune, and if you are rich, you will help the world. Li Wan, a student of a military academy in Changsha, Hunan Province, was the first good-hearted person to lend a helping hand to Su Mingjuan.

He sent a newspaper with a photo of Su Mingjuan and a letter to the headmaster in Su Mingjuan, and offered to help the little girl go to school.

But the headmaster doesn't know which student this photo belongs to, so he can only let the students recognize it themselves.

When I first saw this photo, Su Mingjuan didn't recognize himself at a glance. Just a closer look, it feels very similar to my clothes. It was not until later that I confirmed that I was myself.

Every semester, Li Wan scrimps and saves, and sends some of her meager pocket money to Su Mingjuan, which makes her parents very moved, and Li Wan's letter to Su Mingjuan really inspires the child.

Although Su Mingjuan's parents are uneducated, they are sensible. It is not only Li Wanyi who reads newspapers, but also many good people.

After a retired couple in Dalian sent a grant, they also received tuition fees of 9 college students 100 yuan, but she was not the only child with difficulties. She can't monopolize the care and financial assistance of many people. Love is sharing, not taking and taking it for yourself.

Therefore, after discussing with the owner, this part of the money was donated by Su Mingjuan to Project Hope.

Take care of your heart, and pass on love with love.

Su Mingjuan not only realized his dream of studying, but also shared his love with more children in need, so that they also had the opportunity to study with him.

Poverty has not made Su Mingjuan's families greedy. On the contrary, her parents taught her to be grateful from an early age. They remembered the kindness of each patron and sent their thanks in their own way. The Su Mingjuan family will send each other their pickled bacon and other foods, and they will also send cloth shoes sewn by Su Mingjuan's mother. It can be described as "a thousand miles to send goose feathers, light gifts and heavy feelings"!

Unlike many stories about "farmers and snakes" today, Su Mingjuan does not take aid for granted. Even the poor students sponsored by Sun Li are not only ungrateful, but also bite back and say, "If you don't give me money, I will destroy you", which makes people shudder and realize the ugliness of human nature. Su Mingjuan's action is very touching!

/kloc-When she was 0/5 years old, she donated her first money to the Hope Project Scholarship. Although there is only 28 yuan, this is a gift from her. Even though she still needs to travel for tuition, she always remembers that someone needs help more than herself.

With everyone's concern, in 2002, Su Mingjuan was admitted to the Department of Financial Management of Anhui University with excellent results. At this time, she is eligible to enjoy the subsidy of state grants, which makes her life in college more comfortable.

However, instead of accepting this grant, she made a special trip to write to the relevant departments, hoping to transfer 900 yuan's living expenses to other poor students each semester, while she chose to work and study to earn her own living.

Heaven rewards diligence. After graduating from school, she went to work in a bank. Although her income was not high at first, from then on, she still gave 1000 yuan every year to help poor students without interruption.

She feels that she is the lucky one supported by Project Hope, so she should learn to be grateful. At the same time, she also hopes to give back to the society with her own ability, care for and help others, and pass on her love and warmth.

In 20 17, 34-year-old Su Mingjuan was elected as the deputy secretary of Anhui * * * * Youth League Committee, equivalent to the CPC. However, in the voice of everyone's doubts, she received responses and explanations from relevant departments. Her position is only part-time and temporary, with no administrative rank and no salary. She just provided a platform for her to give full play to her strengths and let her love get a better inheritance.

04 conclusion

Give someone a rose, and the hand has a lingering fragrance. If everyone can give a little love, the world will become a better place!

Su Mingjuan changed from a recipient to a benefactor, which is the transmission and inheritance of love, which is the virtue of the Chinese nation.
