Wu Jihong reinvigorated
In 2017, when Wu Meihua, a teacher at Xiushui Middle School, visited rural poverty alleviation, she stumbled upon Wu Jihong, a "scholar" who was once eye-catching on the campus of the National People's Congress, but now lives in a poor mountain village.
As soon as the news was exposed, it immediately attracted strong attention from the teachers and students of Wu Jihong's alma mater.
Professor An Qingfu led the students to visit, and when they saw Wu Jihong, who was lying around and full of white hair, their hearts tightened. This girl, who was once in her prime, has now fallen to this.
After learning about Wu Jihong's plight, Professor An immediately decided to work with the local government to tailor a comprehensive assistance plan for her. Not only did it provide support in housing, medical care, education and other aspects, but also launched an alumni donation initiative, calling on everyone to lend a hand to this former top student.
With the care of his relatives and the full support of the government and alumni, Wu Jihong's life has finally reappeared. She returned to work at the Archives Administration, and her husband Deng Gaohua also found a job in a restaurant, and the income of the two was finally able to support a well-off life.
What was once a dilapidated adobe house has now been transformed into a spacious and bright two-storey building.
In the courtyard, Wu Jihong was holding a picture book in his arms and was reading aloud to the children with a beautiful voice. The sun shone on her broad forehead, and a happy smile filled her. She sighed: "With the spiritual encouragement of my beloved teachers and dear classmates over the years, I feel the strength of the people to forge ahead.
After going through so many ups and downs, Wu Jihong finally regained his confidence and hope in life and embarked on a new journey in life.
Prosperity
On the crisp autumn days, young Wu Jihong embarked on a journey to the Chinese People's University. The college entrance examination score of 712 points opened the door to the palace of ideals for her.
In this top university in the country, she quickly integrated into campus life, focusing on the exploration of professional knowledge, and also actively participated in campus cultural and sports activities.
"She always gives her all to her studies. This is Wu Jihong's sister's evaluation of her. From elementary school to high school, Wu Jihong was the top student in the class, not only served as the class president and study committee member, but also was recognized as an excellent role model by his classmates.
Even at home, his father deliberately asked his siblings not to let Wu Jihong participate in heavy housework, but to devote themselves wholeheartedly to studying.
On the campus of Renmin University, Wu Jihong showed extraordinary talent and potential. She is not only good at writing and writing, but also keen on aerobics and other healthy sports, in the eyes of her classmates, she is a talented and versatile "scholar".
However, at the critical moment when Wu Jihong was about to step into society, fate began a series of cruel tricks. In that year, the state canceled the unified distribution policy for college graduates and above, and the "iron rice bowl" of students was suddenly shattered.
In the face of the rapidly changing situation, Wu Jihong did not give up easily, but began to actively prepare for the civil service examination.
She rushed to her father in a broken heart, as if she had lost her soul, and she knelt in front of the tombstone for a long time, but it was difficult to shed a single tear. The pain of losing a loved one and the anxiety of not being able to find a job are intertwined, which makes Wu Jihong's body and mind fall to the brink of collapse.
She traveled to Beijing, Guangdong, Tianjin and other places to find jobs, but all of them ended in failure.
In the end, she had to choose to work as an assembly line worker in a garment factory in Guangdong, and her ambitious life transformed into a mechanical "walking dead".
This girl, who was once as dazzling as gold, could not escape the tricks of fate in the end. At the critical moment when she was about to step into society, she faced an unprecedented unemployment crisis, and her job search was difficult again and again, which made Wu Jihong's heart full of confusion and helplessness.
Great dilemma
Just when Wu Jihong lost his job and was on the verge of collapse, fate hit him again. Her colleagues at the Guangdong factory introduced her to a fellow countryman ------ Deng Gaohua, and the two soon entered the marriage hall.
Deng Gaohua was born in a poor rural family, with an education level of only the fourth grade of primary school, but he supported the whole family with his hard work and steadfastness. He had deep sympathy and love for this woman who unfortunately experienced two failed marriages.
However, such a marriage is destined to have a happy ending.
On the one hand, Wu Jihong's family has always disapproved of this marriage, believing that this rural man is incompatible with her; On the other hand, Deng Gaohua's family is also extremely burdened, and his meager income from working outside the home alone cannot support the whole family.
At this time, Wu Jihong became pregnant and gave birth to a child, which made the poor family even worse.
In such a living environment, Wu Jihong gradually developed mental problems. Sometimes, she would get emotional because of some small things, and even raise a wooden stick to commit violence against her husband.
Although Deng Gaohua has always been gentle and patient to calm her emotions, Wu Jihong's condition has never improved.
Even the most basic medical expenses are overwhelmed by the family. Back then, when Wu Jihong gave birth to her daughter, she couldn't even afford this expense. This life-and-death childbirth process has become another huge turning point in Wu Jihong's life.
In the days that followed, Wu Jihong completely gave up her job and immersed herself in the poverty and plight of her family for many years. Conflicts between her and her husband also intensified, and Deng Gaohua was often dissatisfied with her inaction.
In the end, when her daughter was five years old, Wu Jihong's husband chose to cheat and betray, completely tearing the family apart.
Faced with the fragmentation of the family, Wu Jihong's heart was tormented. She was crushed by the merciless tricks of fate, and her whole person seemed to have lost her life. A kind-hearted person introduced her to Deng Gaohua, a fellow low-income household, and the two soon entered the marriage hall.
But this marriage is also destined to have a happy ending. The poor family environment, her husband's dissatisfaction, and the deterioration of her own mental condition have made Wu Jihong's life fall into a deeper predicament.
She sometimes lost control of her emotions because of small things, raising a wooden stick to commit violence against her husband, although Deng Gaohua always comforted her with tenderness and patience.
Even the most basic medical expenses are overwhelmed by the family. Back then, when Wu Jihong gave birth to her daughter, she couldn't even afford this expense. This life-and-death childbirth process became another huge turning point in her life.
Wu Jihong studied and grew up in the countryside
As a girl from a poor mountain village, Wu Jihong has shown an extraordinary talent for learning since she was a child. In that era when the traditional concept had not been completely broken, parents did not pay attention to the education of girls, but Wu Jihong's father never gave up his expectations for his daughter.
"She always gives her all to her studies. This is Wu Jihong's sister's evaluation of her. From elementary school to high school, Wu Jihong was the top student in the class, not only served as the class president and study committee member, but also was recognized as an excellent role model by his classmates.
Even at home, his father deliberately asked his siblings not to let Wu Jihong participate in heavy housework, but to devote themselves wholeheartedly to studying.
In that isolated and impoverished mountain village, Wu Jihong was like a beam of bright sunshine shining into this originally dim world. She wandered in the sea of books, pious and dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge, and at the same time cultivated a rich literary and artistic accomplishment.
Whether it's reading the classics, writing words, or refining calisthenics, she can do anything.
The father firmly believes that this child will shine extraordinary. In that era when girls were regarded as less valuable than boys, Wu Jihong became an exception.
The father's love for his sister has always been as warm as the sun, and he taught his family not to let Wu Jihong do housework or farm work in the field, but devote himself wholeheartedly to studying.
This made my sister sigh: "She can always devote herself to her studies with all her might. While the other children were busy with their daily work, Wu Jihong huddled in the corner, flipping through books, writing answers, and reciting classic articles.
She is very different from the family life of ordinary people, and her life is filled with endless reading.
Her heart has never been disturbed by the hustle and bustle of the outside world, and her world is only a book, a pen, and a heart that persistently pursues knowledge. She has only one goal, which is to pursue the pinnacle of knowledge, and she hopes to achieve her dream by studying hard.
In every exam from elementary school to high school, Wu Jihong is a veritable top student, and her excellent performance has made the awards on the report card hang all over the walls.
In 1994, Wu Jihong, who had great ambitions, embarked on the journey of the college entrance examination, and with a high score of 712 points, he successfully entered the Department of Archives Management of the top Chinese University in the country.
This girl, who once shined in a poor small village, successfully realized her first dream in life with her own efforts and talents.
However, her story has only just begun. At the critical moment when she was about to step into society, fate began a series of cruel tricks, she faced an unprecedented unemployment crisis, and the job search wall again and again made Wu Jihong's heart full of confusion and helplessness.
This girl, who was once as dazzling as gold, could not escape the tricks of fate in the end.
Initiate help
Just when Wu Jihong was in trouble and on the verge of despair, an unexpected discovery rekindled the fire of her life.
One day in May 2017, a teacher named Wu Meihua of Xiushui Middle School, in the process of visiting rural poverty alleviation, unexpectedly discovered a secret hidden in the deep mountains and old forests------ where lived an outstanding woman who had graduated from Chinese University, that is, Wu Jihong, who was praised on campus that year.
Teacher Wu couldn't believe his eyes, this thin woman in shabby clothes and naked legs turned out to be Wu Jihong, the "academic tyrant" who was chasing his ideals on the campus of the National People's University back then.
He hurriedly wrote an article and posted it on the Internet, which attracted strong attention from the majority of alumni.
Professor An Qingfu, who learned the news, immediately organized the students to visit. When they arrived at Wu Jihong's home, the scene they saw made everyone's hearts tighten.
The dilapidated mud houses, the clutter of daily necessities, and the barefoot children all tell the story of the family's poverty and despair.
Looking at Wu Jihong, who was lying down and full of white hair in front of him, Professor An was excited, and the corners of his eyes were moist. They had all studied and grown together on the campus of Renmin University, but now she is in such a predicament.
Professor An immediately stepped forward to hug him warmly, and the students also stepped forward to express their concern.
When he heard the familiar voice and saw the face he had been absent for a long time, Wu Jihong's eyes rekindled the long-lost light. She excitedly recounted with her classmates the good times she spent on campus, and at that moment, it seemed as if all the pain and despair had disappeared.
After learning about Wu Jihong's plight, Professor An immediately decided to work with the local government to tailor a comprehensive assistance plan for her. Not only did it provide support in housing, medical care, education and other aspects, but also launched an alumni donation initiative, calling on everyone to lend a hand to this former top student.
When Wu Jihong's family learned the news, they rushed to visit. My sister and uncle came with the 1,000 yuan in cash that my mother had saved, and Linlin, the daughter born to her ex-husband, had also grown up, and she also came to express her apologies.
Under the care of her relatives, Wu Jihong's heart was finally comforted.
Wu Jihong, a "scholar" who used to attract attention on the campus of the National People's Congress, now lives in a poor mountain village. The arrival of her classmates regained her long-lost hope and joy, and also opened the door for her to regain her strength.
Ups and downs
As one of the outstanding graduates of the Chinese University in 1998, Wu Jihong could have had a bright future. With her diligence and talent, she has achieved one remarkable achievement after another on campus, and has been praised by teachers and classmates.
However, when she was about to enter the society and start a new chapter in her life, she encountered unprecedented setbacks and difficulties. The country's policy adjustment has made her "iron rice bowl" that was just around the corner come to naught.
Faced with the difficult situation of repeated failures in job hunting, Wu Jihong did not give up, but stood up again and again to participate in various exams and interviews.
However, fate always seems to be playing cruel jokes with this former "scholar". The successive failures in the interviews made Wu Jihong's heart full of frustration and helplessness.
At this time, her father passed away unknowingly, which undoubtedly brought her even more blow and pain.
Under the double blow of losing relatives and losing his job, Wu Jihong's life fell into darkness. She searched for jobs in Beijing, Guangdong, Tianjin and other places, but each time she failed.
In the end, she had to succumb to fate and became an assembly line worker in a garment factory in Guangdong, completely reduced to a mechanical "walking corpse".
Just when Wu Jihong was on the verge of collapse, fate gave her a chance again. She met a rural man named Deng Gaohua at a factory in Guangdong, and the two soon entered the marriage hall.
However, this marriage is not destined to have a happy ending.
The poor family environment, her husband's dissatisfaction, and the deterioration of her own mental condition made Wu Jihong's life even worse. She sometimes lost control of her emotions because of small things, raising a wooden stick to commit violence against her husband, although Deng Gaohua always comforted her with tenderness and patience.
Even the most basic medical expenses are overwhelmed by the family.
In the days that followed, Wu Jihong completely gave up her job and immersed herself in the poverty and plight of her family for many years. Conflicts between her and her husband also intensified, and Deng Gaohua was often dissatisfied with her inaction.
In the end, when her daughter was five years old, Wu Jihong's husband chose to cheat and betray, completely tearing the family apart.

At the critical moment when she was about to step into society, she faced an unprecedented unemployment crisis, and her job search was difficult again and again, which made Wu Jihong's heart full of confusion and helplessness.
After so many ups and downs, Wu Jihong finally ushered in a turning point to reinvigorate, but she knows that life is as short as morning dew, but it seems to be as long as a journey, and only by moving forward bravely can we reach the other side of the light.
