I know that I was admitted to university, and I was very excited and very happy, because I was also the first in our village to be admitted to university.
I will set an example for the younger siblings.
[Explanation] The Datuojia Villager Group is 39 kilometers away from the county seat.
The dilapidated small houses, muddy roads, combined with the slash-and-burn production method, the Yao people, who had difficulty eating and dressing before, had no time to care about the education of their children.
[Explanation] Yao girls go to college, which is hard to imagine for the Datuojia villager group in the past.
In order to help the Yao people get rid of poverty and become rich, and block the intergenerational transmission of poverty, local support villagers develop tea, pig breeding and other industries, improve infrastructure construction, and realize the whole group of water, electricity, access and internet.

Now we are getting better and better, eating well, dressing well, and educating well.
We hope that the children in Datuojia can study hard, get into college, and keep up with others.
[Explanation] Up to now, Guoqing Township has implemented education poverty alleviation policies to support 7,990 people, with a total subsidy of 18.3403 million yuan.
Today, the four girls are admitted to university at the same time, and the villagers all come to see them off.

To be admitted to university, I feel that I cannot do without the support of family, friends, relatives and the help of my uncles and aunts, so that I don’t have to worry too much (life), and I can always study safely and finish my studies.
Next, I will study hard in university. I also want to come back to be a teacher after postgraduate entrance examination and continue to contribute to my hometown.
