Since I was born at the age of 0, I have been taking care of it. At that time, I was unemployed, his grandfather was laid off, and I didn’t have a job. I just set up a stall for a living, selling socks, sunglasses, children’s glasses, and Liangpi.
(Did you take him to the stall with you?) Yes, I want to take it with me, just because there is no one at home at that time, you can take him with him if you don’t worry about it, and I will sit when he wants to sleep. Selling things there, he was lying on my feet.

In the future, I hope that his own ideals must be realized. Since he was a child, he said that he would be admitted to Tsinghua University and become a scientist. I hope that his own dream is to be a scientist, and it would be better to make a little contribution to the motherland, right? .
