In 1995, Zhang Guimei's husband passed away. One day, a female colleague inadvertently touched her belly and was surprised to find that her belly was swollen and looked like she was pregnant. Zhang Guimei hurried to the hospital for an examination the next day, but she didn't expect to be severely reprimanded by the doctor. In the vast land of China, there is a principal named Zhang Guimei, who sticks to the front line of education with great love and responsibility, and ignites the light of hope for poor girls to go out of the mountains with her actions.
After the death of her husband, Zhang Guimei experienced great pain and blows. However, instead of falling into a whirlpool of grief, she chose to face life's challenges positively. She left her original place and came to Huaping County, south of Caiyun, to start a new teaching career.
In Huaping County, Zhang Guimei found that many students faced difficult living conditions. She was deeply distressed, but she did not give up. She puts her heart and soul into her work, trying to help students out of difficult situations with her enthusiasm and serious teaching. However, just as she was working hard, she discovered that she had a tumor in her stomach. The doctor told her that she needed immediate surgery or it would have a serious impact on her health. 
Zhang Guimei was frightened, but she knew she couldn't fall. She decided to use the holidays to heal first, because she had one more important thing to do, which was to start a girls' high school. Zhang Guimei found that many girls became child brides or housewives at an early age because of their poor families. She knew the importance of education for girls, so she decided to change the trajectory of these girls' lives through education. After five years of unremitting efforts, Zhang Guimei managed to raise enough funds to achieve this goal. In 2009, Huaping Girls' High School officially opened. As time went on, the quality of teaching and the school spirit of this girls' school got better and better, sending away batch after batch of students. Some of the graduates of each class are admitted to universities and realize their dreams. 
However, Zhang Guimei was not satisfied with this. Firmly believing in the power of education to change lives, she has been committed to improving the quality of teaching in girls' schools. She not only focuses on the academic performance of her students, but also on their all-round development. She wants her students to become autonomous, modern women who are not dependent on others. During a donation drive, a student returned to his alma mater to sponsor the fund. However, Zhang Guimei sternly rejected her donation. The reason is that the student gave up his job and has become a housewife. Zhang Guimei said to her earnestly: "I want my students to become autonomous, independent modern women, instead of relying on others. This sentence touched the student deeply, and she realized her mistake, took back the donation and turned away. Zhang Guimei's deeds are touching, and her firm belief and selfless dedication make us deeply admired and worthy of emulation. She reminds us that a world full of warmth comes from the kindness and love of people's hearts. She proved the power of education and the importance of hope through her actions. 
As a famous person said, "Education is an important way for mankind to pass on civilization." "Principal Zhang Guimei understands the power of education and the importance of hope. Her perseverance and dedication have helped poor girls get out of the mountains, changed their fate, and contributed to the progress and development of society.
