[Explanation] On February 29, King Jinlian, the embroidered mother of Mongolian ethnic group, was teaching her Mongolian embroidery skills to her sisters in the WeChat group through her mobile phone at her home in Wuxungacha, Kerqin Youyizhongqi (hereafter referred to as Keyouzhongqi), Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. This "embroidery micro-classroom" has been going on for more than 20 days.

[Explanation] It is understood that the Mongolian embroidery taught by Wang Jinlian originated in the Qing Dynasty and is a Mongolian folk art and craft with unique local style. It has been passed down for more than 300 years. Wang Jinlian, who was still a poor household in 2016, just learned the embroidery skills and took off the hat of the poor households in less than 2 years, and achieved a stable income. Not only that, she also became the leader of local Mongolian embroidery.

[Explanation] The reporter saw at Wang Jinlian's house that exquisite patterns were embroidered from sofa cushions to jewelry ornaments, which also added a sense of art to rural life. Wang Jinlian told reporters that she is still in the epidemic prevention and control period. In order to let Gacha's sisters feel at home to prevent epidemics and at the same time gain benefits by improving embroidery skills, she thought of using WeChat groups to run Mongolian embroidery micro-classes.

I got rid of poverty with the help of the party and government. Because I have learned Mongolian embroidery, during this epidemic, we helped our women in Wuxungacha through WeChat, instructed their embroidery skills, and worked hard to increase their income.

[Explanation] Starting from February 2, Wang Jinlian pulled 93 sisters from the same Gacha into the WeChat embroidery group. In the WeChat group, Wang Jinlian explained the embroidery techniques through voice and video, interacted with the sisters in real time, and was just like learning face to face; she also encouraged everyone to share their work in the embroidery group, learn from each other, and make progress together. The "embroidery sisters" in the group also praised her embroidery micro-classroom.

After the epidemic, we can also stay at home to embroider and increase income. Some places just do n’t know how to embroider. When we do n’t know what to do, the teacher guides us through WeChat and solves the problem for us. Thank you very much (she).
