They met in high school. Lin Jiquan had worked his way out of the mountains one exam at a time, and didn't know much about life in the city.
After graduating, he stayed in the south to study education, while Xi Xiliu went north to study finance.
Later, Lin Jiquan decided to teach in a mountain village:
"I was born in a place like a muddy pit, so I know how hard it is to climb out. I hope they can have a new start sooner, and with less struggle."
For his own selfish reasons and to help society develop, Xi Xiliu decided to establish a charity fund to help poor mountain villages prosper:
"I've hardly ever seen poverty, and I don't know what their lives are like. But I hope they can escape poverty soon, then serve their country and bring peace."
On the day the school we hoped for is established, may we be just as we were before:
"It's time to eat. Want to go? My treat."
Winter has not yet fully left, but saplings in the mountains have already sprouted. Spring's presence can no longer be concealed in the woods. There is no blazing sun, but there are cool, clear springs.
