In a primary school in a rural area in the mountainous area of ​​northern Sichuan, there was a school that "study half a day, give birth half a day", called "Gengdu Primary School", which was later called a private school. The teacher was Yan Xingyun who had just returned from high school. He was not much taller or older than the students. So people call him "little teacher". The job of a teacher at Gengdu Primary School is low, with only 12 yuan per month. Only the 5 yuan from the state subsidy is cash, and the rest has to be collected from the production team. In this case, his grandfather encouraged him and said: "Don't be afraid. Others support their families with 'art', but we support 'art' at home." At that time, teachers generally only had elementary school education. Grandpa said: "Teaching is about teaching. If you teach well, you will teach others' children; if you teach poorly, you will mislead others' children." The classes taught by others tend to get smaller as they are taught, while the classes taught by Yan Xingyun get bigger as they are taught; students in private classes have higher grades than those in public classes. The students he teaches have published many compositions at the national, provincial, municipal and county levels. He has also been praised and awarded by the county party committee and county government many times. In this way, Yan Xingyun became a qualified primary school teacher without a diploma.
