A few days ago, Peking University announced the annual figure of Peking University students.
Wang Xinyi, who once wrote an article "Thank You for Poverty" and took a pen from Rong at Peking University, was among them.
Wang Xinyi. Carry a pen from the sword aircraft carrier to explore the infinite possibilities of youth.
He is a 2018 undergraduate student in the Department of Chinese Language and Literature in Chinese.
From the tranquil Yan Garden to the surging ocean, from "Peking University Red" to "Navy Blue", Wang Xinyi, who carries a pen from Rong, shows the infinite possibilities of youth to contemporary young people. After enlisting in the army in 2020, she was assigned to the Liaoning ship with the first overall score and became an aircraft carrier helmsman. From 2021 to 2022, Wang Xinyi completed more than ten training missions with the Liaoning ship. Wang Xinyi is on the east coast of the motherland, looking at the foreign ** ship in front of her, and in the choppy western Pacific, every time she performs a mission, she feels more connected with the motherland as a son and daughter of China.
In the two years in the army, Wang Xinyi not only performed well in his own work, ranked first in personal quantification for many times, and achieved excellent results in professional competitions, and was commended by the department as an "elite captain". She also gave full play to her own strengths, took the initiative to participate in propaganda work, and became the "pen stick" of the department and the "reporter of the soldiers" of the aircraft carrier. Wang Xinyi, who has both civil and military skills, was rated as an outstanding soldier of the "Four Haves" by the unit in 2022.
Although he took off his military uniform, his military feelings were deeply rooted in Wang Xinyi's heart. In September 2022, Wang Xinyi returned to school after being discharged from the army, and in the school, she actively participated in the activities of the party branch and the military science class, and made suggestions and suggestions for the development of the school's armed forces department, which was widely recognized by teachers and students. Outside the school, she actively cooperated with the recruitment propaganda and called on outstanding young people to join the army. At the same time, she also told military stories and showed the style of youth in many publicity and exchange activities. (*Peking University WeChat***.)
In 2018, Wang Xinyi, who scored 707 points in the college entrance examination and was admitted to the Chinese Department of Peking University, first attracted attention because of an article about herself, poverty, and hope.
Grandma died of cancer, the family was in financial difficulties, faced with the ridicule of his classmates for his clothes, and the difficulties on the way to school, Wang Xinyi turned it into two words - "thanks".
Poverty brings much more than pain, struggle and confusion. Even though it narrowed my horizons, stabbed my self-esteem, and even indirectly took the lives of my loved ones, I still want to say, thank you, poverty. Thanks to poverty, you have made me realize true happiness and satisfaction, so that I can get in touch with the beauty and wonder of nature at zero distance, and enjoy the blessings and blessings of God. I am a son and daughter of the land, and I am deeply in love with the solid and pristine yellow earth under my feet: I come from humble places, and I draw the nourishment of life from humble places. Thanks to poverty, you have convinced me of the power of education and knowledge. The light from truth and wisdom finally illuminated my naïve and ignorant heart through the deep fog in my heart. Poverty may shake many beliefs, but it has made me more persistent in the power of knowledge.
Wang Xinyi was born in an ordinary rural family in Zaoqiang County, Hebei Province. My mother is frail and sickly, and she takes care of her grandfather who can't take care of herself at home all the year round. There are also two younger brothers in the family, and the family of six all rely on the family's five acres of land and their father to go out to do odd jobs to subsidize the family.
Since elementary school, Wang Xinyi has taken the initiative to help her parents with housework, and often goes to the field to do some farm work within her ability.
Despite the poverty of her family, it did not affect the optimistic and positive Wang Xinyi at all, and her primary, junior and senior high schools have always been among the top in her class. Various awards and certificates are plastered all over the walls.
Thanks to poverty. Wang Xinyi丨Text.
I was a little hesitant to pick up the pen. I don't know how to tell this story about myself, about poverty, about hope.
I was born in Zaoqiang Town, Zaoqiang County, Hebei Province. Zaoqiang County is a poverty-stricken county in Hebei Province with a very low per capita income. I have two younger brothers, the eldest brother and I are studying at Zaoqiang Middle School together, and the younger brother is still in kindergarten. The family lives on only two acres of barren land and the meager income of his father's part-time job.
The world of children does not have so many worries and heaviness. The first time I faced the truth about poverty and life was when I was eight years old. That year, my grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer, and her peaceful life was like a stone thrown on the surface of the lake, which was suddenly shattered. The family was anxious and panicked, but it was difficult to squeeze out the life-saving money from the strapped hand. Grandma's life is like a candle destined to go out, slowly weakening and burning out until it loses its last light.
Grandma has worked hard all her life, but she has not exchanged for a day of leisure, and she still remembers the livestock and crops in the hospital bed. The death of my grandmother, who had been diligent all my life, made me feel choked by poverty for the first time as a child. Money may not be able to save grandma's life, but the economic dilemma has indeed pushed the family into the abyss of despair.
I vividly remember my mother's silent and helpless tears in those gloomy days, and I also began to understand: is it worldly to talk about money?No, it's not, it gives us the most basic security of life, and it allows us to do our best to keep those precious people and things. And these also made me realize that life has just unveiled her.
My younger brother, who is one year younger than me, and I have embarked on the road to study one after another, which has added a lot of financial burden to my family. My mother was unable to go out to work due to physical reasons, as well as because of the unattended farm work and her grandfather, who had difficulty taking care of himself. I can only rely on my father to work alone to support the family. His father's job was unstable, his salary was pitiful, and the family's daily expenses had to rely on his mother's careful calculations to barely make ends meet.
My grandfather and mother's medical expenses for a year are also a lot of expenses, and when my grandmother was sick, the family owed a lot of debts, which inevitably saved money spent on clothes. If my relatives have older children, they will bring some used clothes to my house. Some of the clothes that could still be worn were washed by my mother and put on my brother and me.
She often said that it is good to wear clothes that are not good-looking, clean and warm. It's not hard to see why my mother is still wearing the same uniform she wore twenty years ago. My brother and I are also very obedient and never argue for new clothes or shoes.
However, a few classmates in the class laughed at my worn shoes, old-fashioned clothes, and strange combinations. I remember that a boy in the first year of junior high school mocked me very much for the padded jacket with a sleeve that grew out of the "dirt and slag", and I cried and went home to my mother and said, she only said: "Ignore him, just do things steadfastly." ”
Yes, why bother with the comments of the laity, it is only based on your appearance and clothing, if he can't see your inner self, ignore him. After all, the road of life is not for others to see. I wore that dress for three years in junior high school, and I still remember that sentence.
In addition to clothing, there is another problem that comes with going to school: transportation. You can go to the village in the lower grades, but you can only go to the village school when you reach the third grade. I have a bicycle at home and I sit in the back seat. The younger brother could only sit on the beam in front of him, with his legs cocked. In the eyes of others, it seems to be "performing acrobatics", but he let his younger brother persist for three years.
At that time, the road to the village was broken, the cement slabs were broken into pieces, and there were potholes when walking, and a lot of water would accumulate on rainy days. But every time my mother picks up, she never misses the time. In fact, we could have boarded at the school and picked up and dropped off once a week, but the food in the village school was really expensive. Mom is worried that we are growing up, but we are suffering from our frail self.
Sometimes it was inevitable that we would get out of the car and run for a while, so running a kilometer to and from school every day became a way for my brother and I to exercise. I remember one time it snowed, the snow was a foot thick, the car couldn't get out, my mother wrapped in a cotton jacket, against the wind, walked to the school to pick us up, and I don't know how much snow melted on my mother's face along the way. But my brother and I were so excited, playing in the snow while talking to my mom about what we had learned today.
The three of us stayed home until dark. That's when I learned that happiness is not because life is perfect, but because you can ignore the imperfections and try your best to embrace the beauty and sunshine that you see.
Poverty brings much more than pain, struggle and confusion. Even though it narrowed my horizons, stabbed my self-esteem, and even indirectly took the lives of my loved ones, I still want to say, thank you, poverty.
Thanks to poverty, you have made me realize true happiness and contentment. You've completely insulated me from toys, snacks, and games, but at the same time you've embraced a better world.
My childhood may have been missing cartoons, but I could go with my mom to catch bugs and come back and feed the chickens and wait for the delicious eggs the next day;There may not be a Barbie doll in my world, but I can go to the fragrant wheat field and secretly play with the water while the adults water the ground;I don't have snacks in my spare time, but I can climb the tall mulberry tree at the back of the house with my brother, pluck the fuchsia leaves, and lean on the branches to taste them contentedly.
Thank you, poor, for allowing me to get in touch with the beauty and wonder of nature and enjoy the blessings and blessings of God. I am a son and daughter of the land, and I am deeply in love with the solid and pristine yellow earth under my feetI have come from humble places, and I have drawn the nourishment of life from humble places.
Thanks to poverty, you have convinced me of the power of education and knowledge. Material deprivation leads to two outcomes: one is extreme spiritual barrenness, and the other is extreme spiritual fullness. And I, choose the latter.
I come from an ordinary family that is obsessed with education and knowledge. Mother said that this is a road to the wider world. Since then, the belief that knowledge can change destiny has been deeply ingrained in my heart.
My mother taught me early on to start memorizing poems and arithmetic, so much so that I was able to memorize a lot of Tang poems when I was one year old. The light from truth and wisdom finally illuminated my naïve and ignorant heart through the deep fog in my heart. Poverty may shake many beliefs, but it has made me more persistent in the power of knowledge.
Thanks to poverty, you have given me endless hope and the strength to never bow my head. Farmers know that when planting seeds, they bury them in the soil and step on them heavily. The first time I went to sow seeds, I was also very strange, how could the seedlings break through the soil again when I stepped on it so solidly?But my mother told me that if the soil is loose, the seedlings will not be able to come out, and that only when they encounter solid soil before breaking the soil can the seedlings grow stronger. When I grew up, when I recalled these words again, I realized that I was exactly like that.
The plain and powerful text has touched many netizens.
A poor environment can sharpen or train people, but it does not necessarily make people successful.
Instead of thanking the poor growth environment, I deserve to be thanked for my parents who have always been with me and have grown up tenaciously in the face of adversity.
In the article, Wang Xinyi mentioned her mother and younger brother many times, and these relatives who are related to her blood are an important part of her family education.
Good family education often has a better chance of cultivating excellent children, and good parents can also convey a correct outlook on life to their children.
Ignore him and just do things steadily. ”
When Wang Xinyi was ridiculed by her classmates for her shabby clothes, her mother asked her to learn to raise her head and walk her own way, instead of being shackled by the evaluation of others and stagnating.
When talking about Xi, Mom said, "It's a path to a wider world. ”
Some people say that the vision and pattern of parents hide the trajectory of children's growth.
Wang Xinyi's mother knows that knowledge changes fate, and began to cultivate her ability to memorize poems when her daughter was very young, and the one-year-old Wang Xinyi can recite many poems, and learns ...... a year earlier than othersThis has a lot to do with the efforts of this visionary mother.
Attaching importance to education and respecting knowledge, the attitude conveyed by parents will take root in the hearts of children, and eventually grow into towering trees.
In addition to the education of the three views, the daily life of Wang Xinyi's family is also full of love. After the third grade, the siblings had to go to school in the township, and the road was difficult to walk, so her mother had to go to school to pick them up, and for three years, the wind and snow were unhindered, and they were never late.
On the long way back and forth, the three of them chatted together, and the children told their mothers what they had learned today and what interesting things they had learned, and laughter spread throughout the path.
Wang Xinyi said that it was the happiest time.
Many people say that all they see from Wang Xinyi's face is sunshine, as if all she has experienced is a sunny day, and she can't see any haze. In fact, her self-reliance, sunny and optimistic spirit is the best in a happy family environment. Although she did not have a rich material life, spiritually, her mother gave her the most precious companionship.
Raising a child in poverty is not to let him scavenge to experience life, and raising a child in wealth is not to let him accept the treatment of a prince and princess, but to set an example for the child from his own words and deeds, instill in him correct values, and give him the best and most reasonable education within his ability.
Now Wang Xinyi has been discharged from the army.
He returned to Peking University to continue his studies.
All the way. As she said:
Those who can't defeat us.
It only makes us stronger!”
Struggle and hard work.
Watering the flowers of incomparably brilliant dreams.
Bless you, Wang Xinyi.
