A pair of eyes slipped around, a pair of skillful hands loved to draw, and a small mouth giggled.
No one expected that Han Shuxin, who just turned 6 years old in 2022, grew up in the mountains and spoke non-standard Mandarin, but appeared on the stage of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics and sang "Ode to the Olympics" in Greek.

"Look, the first row is numbered second on the right." On February 7, when the reporter came to Han Shuxin's home, her mother Yang Li introduced her child to the reporter with a group photo of the Ma Lanhua Children's Voice Choir, and there was an unconcealed pride in her tone, "Doudou is the youngest child in the whole choir." Doudou is The nickname of Han Shuxin, who is a kindergarten student at Stone Monkey Primary School in Fuping County, Hebei Province. In recent years, after Fuping got rid of poverty, the life of the villagers has become more and more prosperous, which has also allowed children like Doudou to eat, wear, live, go to school without worry, and music, art, sports and other cultural and sports courses have made children's childhood colorful.

When the staff of the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee went to the school to select the members of the choir, the smart and cute Doudou was caught in the eye. "When I first learned the news, I was very excited and a little worried, after all, the child is still so young, can I stick to it?" Yang Li's heart was a little drumming. "I can!" Doudou shows determination beyond her age, although she is young and lively, she is not at all ambiguous when she really wants to do something.
Beanie is learning to sing. In November last year, the children began a closed intensive training at Bayi School in Fuping County, and they could only go home on weekends. Teacher Gao Yue, who lived with Doudou day and night, told reporters that at first, the teachers were most worried about Doudou, but they did not expect ThatDoudou gave them unexpected surprises. "On the first night of the stay, Doudou washed her feet, washed her face, brushed her teeth, went to bed and made a quilt, and changed her pajamas." Gao Yue and the other teachers were worried that she would miss home and were ready to go over and coax her to sleep, but when they looked over, they found that Doudou had fallen asleep on her own. During the training period, the children in the upper grades need to take cultural classes, and The beanie who does not have to go to class walks around the corridor by himself, which is particularly quiet and well-behaved. "She was also very smart and learned a lot of words before she knew it." Gao Yue felt that during the training period, Doudou's performance could score 90 points.

After arriving in Beijing in early January, during the first rehearsal at the Bird's Nest, Doudou had a severe allergic reaction to the tape attached to the headphones on his head. As soon as he played, Doudou's eyes were invisible, and his head was full of rashes. The teachers were frightened, but the strong Beanie never complained. "Every time the rehearsal goes on stage, the eldest child takes one step, and she has to run two steps to keep up." Gao Yue looked in his eyes and was very moved. Doudou is the youngest, but he never falls behind! It was also with this tenacity that Doudou finally passed the layers of "checkpoints" and stood on the stage of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics, becoming the only preschooler among the 44 children in the choir.

"Isn't Greek difficult?" "It's not difficult, I learned it by singing with them." Xiao Doudou stood on the balance car, his hands in his pockets, and said without taking it seriously. Learning to sing this Olympic song in Greek, The little beanie only took a month or so. Gao Yue said that Doudou is quite talented in learning Greek, "Although she doesn't know what the lyrics mean, but the teacher taught a sentence, Doudou sang along below, and soon she could imitate it like 'drawing a scoop according to the gourd', and after several times, she could sing it herself." "Beanie, give us a live singing, shall we?" Hearing the reporter's request, Doudoutou shook like a rattle, "bad smile" ran away to play with scooters, and every move revealed the playful energy that should be had at this age.

Tired of playing, Doudou began to pick up the paintbrush and sit in the courtyard to draw, and she could always put her own whimsy on the paper through the brush. "What's the drawing?" Draw an ice pier! "Beanie talked to himself, the paintbrush in his hand rustling on the paper." I also want to draw bird's nests that look like bird's nests! The nest is super large and there is a big hole in it. Doudou was playing with his hand in the sky, eating candy, and laughing with a crooked eyebrow as he spoke vaguely. The Winter Olympics, the "Bird's Nest", singing, the ice piers... Maybe Xiao Doudou can't really understand what they represent yet, but through her words and brushes, we know that she has taken these to heart and become the best memories of this happy childhood in the mountains. After drawing "BEIJING2022" on the drawing paper, Doudou looked up with sugar, dragged a long tone and said word by word: "I want to be a painter in the future." Although the sound of the beans was not loud, it drifted into the soil of the hometown and began to take root and sprout.
