At the age of 90, Bai Fangli pedaled a tricycle through the streets of Tianjin every day, and although his strength was weak, he tried his best to raise tuition and living expenses for the children he never knew.
Bai Fangli pedaled a tricycle in Tianjin for 19 years, he traveled through every corner of the city, his footprints were all over the streets and alleys, and he saved 350,000 yuan one by one, all of which were donated to those children in need.
And he himself lives an extremely simple life, with only steamed buns and boiled water for every meal, and sometimes he dips some soy sauce in order to add some flavor. He hadn't bought himself a new dress for more than twenty years, and his life seemed to be always wandering, with no fixed place to live, and heaven and earth as his home.
In fact, in the eighties and nineties, Bai Fangli was already considered wealthy. Not only does he have a pension, but he is also the owner of a company. He even sold two old houses in his hometown, took out a loan from the bank, and founded a white school vocational education company, but he still lived like a beggar, leaving the company to others to take care of, and he continued to pedal a tricycle to make money.
His belief has never changed, that is, it is a point to earn more points for children. However, the urban renewal of Tianjin forced Bai Fangli's company to close. Despite all his reluctance, he resolutely obeyed the state's arrangement.
From then on, he insisted on pedaling the tricycle to make money until that year, when the snow was falling, Bai Fangli walked into Tianjin Yew Wah Middle School, took out the 521 yuan and two cents in the tin lunch box and handed it to the school teacher.
He trembled and said, "I can't do it anymore." This scene moved everyone present, and this last stroke may be his last contribution to the world. The people around him were silently crying, but Bai Fangli, he smiled. The smile was like that of a carefree child, his eyes were full of innocence and contentment, and he fulfilled his promise back then.
In the year 2005 that
In the cold winter, the 92-year-old Bai Fangli passed away in people's reluctance. His relics are poignantly few: a dilapidated tricycle, an old radio, and a little yellow warbler. The most shocking thing is that his deposit turned out to be zero yuan. Although he was not selected as the "Moving China" Person of the Year, at the time of his death, tens of thousands of people spontaneously came to see him off. At that moment, the whole of China was moved by him and cried for him.
