From 22 to 36 years old, Ran Qin, a woman from Autian Village, Pingyuan Township, Dejiang County, Guizhou Province, experienced the grief of her father-in-law, mother-in-law, and husband passing away due to illness. Faced with a debt of nearly 300,000 yuan, she did not pick up her son, but devoted herself to supporting her new year. The grandfather and grandmother who are over ninety years old have carefully nurtured their two young sons, and are hailed by the locals as "Mu Guiying" on the battlefield of poverty alleviation.
With short hair, leather jackets, and sports shoes, Ran Qin's dress is simple and neat, whether he is mowing the grass in the field or patrolling the forest.
The reporter met Ran Qin for the first time, completely subverting the image of the hard-working peasant woman in his imagination.
Ran Qin was born in Dejiang Pingyuan Township in 1983. In 2002, he married a local boy, Mou Zhenchao. His family married a motorcycle and a farm cow, which was a rich dowry in the Dejiang countryside at that time.
Since 2003, Ran Qin and her husband have planted dozens of acres of flue-cured tobacco. The couple plan to use their savings from planting tobacco for two years to build a new house. At this time, the father-in-law suddenly became seriously ill. Not only did he spend all his family savings but also owe him 3 With a loan of more than 10,000 yuan, the father-in-law passed away.

After hard work, Ran Qin and his wife renovated the roasting room three times to expand the scale of tobacco planting. Six years later, they paid off their debts and built a new house. Just as the family's life became more and more abundant, even greater misfortunes followed, in 2012 The mother-in-law passed away due to unhealed illness. Five years later, her husband, Mou Zhenchao, was diagnosed with a serious heart attack.
Two years later, Ran Qin's husband died of a serious illness, leaving a debt of nearly 300,000 yuan.
The heartbroken Ran Qin wanted to "get away" several times, but she knew she couldn't leave and she wanted to lead the whole family out of the gloom.
Every day, Ran Qin prepares breakfast for his family and goes to work in the mountains. At noon, he cuts the grass and goes home to feed the cows and cook lunch.
Grandpa suffers from high blood pressure, and every few days she sends him to the town health center for examination.
In order to alleviate Ran Qin's burden, the two village committees had taken the initiative to send the two elderly people to the town's nursing home for the elderly.
Ran Qin said, "Granddaughter-in-law can also be filial. I will not let the two old people feel wronged at all."
After the death of her husband, the local government included Ranqin's family as a target for precise assistance. The two children received education subsidies and hired her as a village forest ranger, earning a steady income of 10,000 yuan per year.
Ran Qin also took the initiative to learn large-scale breeding techniques, planting grass and tobacco, and repaid the debts owed by her husband for medical treatment of the surplus money.
In recent years, Dejiang County has vigorously supported farmers to raise beef cattle on a large scale. Ran Qin is shrewd and studious. He learns from senior cattle farmers in the village whenever he has time, and quickly learns beef cattle breeding skills.
In order to ensure that the cattle can eat good grass fodder, Ran Qin also circulated her family’s land to plant 10 acres of pasture, and bought a new agricultural tricycle specifically for transporting pasture.
In 2020, her family's fattening cattle will produce a batch of beef cattle, plus the sale of pigs and grain, and the annual income will be 120,000 yuan.
“As long as the skills are mastered, the income from raising beef cattle and live pigs will be fast and stable.” In early 2021, Ran Qin purchased 7 more shelf cattle and plans to purchase 10 more piglets. She also plans to use more pastures for her own animals to eat. Endlessly, it can also be sold to big farmers in the village.
As a forest ranger, Ran Qin patrols mountains and protects forests and fires every day. With the full cooperation of the villagers, he also works with the villagers to pick up wild mushrooms and pick wild vegetables to increase income.
Ran Qin calculated that by the end of the year, the income of slaughter cattle and pigs is expected to exceed 200,000 yuan, and there will be surpluses after paying off the debts before. He plans to continue to expand the scale of breeding to make the life better.
