　　This year the two sessions came to the delegation for the first time. What will China's top leader Xi Jinping say?

　　On the 5th, when he participated in the deliberations of the Inner Mongolia delegation at the Fourth Session of the 13th National People’s Congress, Xi Jinping talked about many major issues, including new development concepts, poverty alleviation, and ecological environment... He also mentioned "Three thousand orphans entered Inner Mongolia" and other short stories.

　　The lens of history is pulled back to the early 1960s-

　　At that time, New China encountered severe natural disasters and the country was short of food supplies. In dozens of orphanages in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places, a large number of orphans faced the threat of insufficient food.

The party committee and government of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region took the initiative to invite more than 3,000 southern orphans to the prairie.

After hearing the news, the herders rode horses and drove lele carts (Mongolian bullock carts) to the nursery to apply for the adoption of orphans. Some herders even adopted five or six children at once, leaving one by one. Touching story.

　　Time has passed, after a year, why does Xi Jinping mention this story at this time?

　　The answer is actually in the story.

　　At that time, the herdsmen of Inner Mongolia, whose lives were not well-off, accepted more than 3,000 Han orphans who were waiting to be nurtured and struggling with death. This was not only a transmission of love, but also a good story of national unity.

　　National unity has countless touching stories in the history of New China and even the history of the Chinese nation.

　　In the delegation of Inner Mongolia this time, Xi Jinping mentioned "three thousand orphans entering Inner Mongolia" and at the same time also mentioned another historical tale: "Work together to build Baotou Steel."

Both stories are vivid testimonies of national unity and mutual assistance.

　　Throughout history, it has been confirmed that "the Han cannot be separated from the ethnic minorities, the ethnic minorities cannot be separated from the Han, and the ethnic minorities cannot be separated from each other."

　　National unity is more significant today and has a more far-reaching impact.

Because standing in the present, "we are closer to the goal of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation than at any time in history."

　　The story mentioned by Xi Jinping is intended to remind: to forge a sense of community of the Chinese nation!

　　This kind of consciousness is required not only for this generation, but also for the next generation. It must have cultural identity. This is the deepest identity, the root of national unity and the soul of national harmony; it must have a correct view of the country, history, and National outlook, cultural outlook, and religious outlook.

Only in this way can China move towards a farther and better future, and so does the Chinese nation.

　　The story mentioned by Xi Jinping is intended to remind: we must unite and strive for common development and prosperity!

　　In the past, in the moving picture of "Three Thousand Orphans Entering Inner Mongolia", the prairie mother's request for herself was "receive one, live one, and strengthen one".

　　Today, on the road to an all-round well-off society, the Chinese ruling party’s promise is that "one cannot be less."

　　In the future, to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, as Xi Jinping has repeatedly emphasized, "a nation cannot be less."

　　Now and then, there is constant persistence in the time-so, "Fifty-six nations and fifty-six flowers", China, China, why are you afraid of the future?
