Jiaodong online network February 10th news (reporter Jia Chuhang Sun Zongshun) "pro" Ren Sheng Lan: when you receive your remittance form, the mood is really hard to describe. When your hands took 200 yuan like Taishan, I was in tears. An unknown person, in my economy has reached the end of the end of the end of the time, you have extended the help and warm hands to help me to save the life of the children... Liu Shenglan received a lot of letters like this.
every moving Chinese person of the year shook their hearts with their personality strength. Liu Shenglan, a 92 year old Yantai old man, began to pick up students in 1996. In the past 18 years, he has funded hundreds of poverty-stricken students across the country by collecting about 100000 yuan from the scavenging farm, and touched many people.
his most extravagant consumption is to spend 180 yuan to subscribe to a newspaper
some people in the village say that Liu Shenglan is a very thoughtful "able person".
Liu Shenglan, who was born in 1923, was originally a farmer in the village of Liu Hang in silkworm Town, Zhaoyuan, Yantai. Before liberation, he was only 20 years old to go to Tianjin and to be an apprentice in a household, that is, there, he had learned a lot of books in his spare time without reading a few days.
after returning to Tianjin from the village, he went to work on the farm and worked as a food manager. In 1975, Liu Shenglan also participated in the "battle mountain river" commando organized by the people's commune.
but looking back on the first half of the lifetime of "capable man" Liu Shenglan, Liu Shouren, 74, of the same village, could not avoid a sigh, "he really had a lifetime of suffering, and never had a good day." Liu Shouren said Liu Shenglan had married three times but ended up in divorce. He had a son when he was 40 years old, but he died in less than 10 days.
in 1979, Liu Shenglan became a bachelor without a wife. He worked as a storekeeper in a gold mine, then transferred to Zhaoyuan gold company as a storekeeper, and from 1998 onwards, the doorman watched the gate. During this period, the corner of the company's compound less than 10 square meters was Liu Shenglan's "home".
one of his most extravagant spending practices for many years was spending 180 yuan, setting up an evening paper to look for needy students to help in the newspaper. So far, he still insists on the habit of reading newspapers. His bedside daily is still placed on the local evening paper.
his most valuable asset is the money order and reply
in 1996, Liu Shenglan, a custodian of the Zhaoyuan gold company, sent Lv Yazhou 50 yuan to the 13 year old middle school student, which was the first love he gave. Since then, Liu Shenglan has followed the devil, as long as he knows that a child can not afford to learn, he will send the money on hand.
in 2002, Liu Shenglan moved back to the 3 thatched cottages in the village. Without income, he went to the village garbage cans and village bazaar every day to pick up wine bottles, cans and so on. After selling back the money, he didn't want to eat, do not have to wear it, or all donated to the difficult students who knew each other.
the students he donated quickly spread from the surrounding cities to all parts of the country, but few people knew that the money was saved by the old man riding the old bicycle in the city of Zhaoyuan. Some people once thought Liu Shenglan was a woman and called him "aunt Liu Sheng blue" and "Liu Meizi". "
" eat dirty steamed bread, vegetable leaves, and rotten fruit picked up from the bazaar garbage dump, often steamed in the pot, pickled cabbage and pickled radish leaves... " All the savings have been donated, and they are not as good as the ordinary ones. The villagers feel that he is "neurotic" and many relatives have alienated him.
old neighbor Wang Rixiang said that there were good villagers coming to persuade him to save some old age money for himself, but they failed. "It's too stubborn! His temper, what others say is useless! "
over the years, the family received a lot of thanks letters from the students who had been called "relatives", "grandfathers" and "aunts". But because of the dispersion of funds and the change of communication mode, many students have lost contact with the elderly.
hundreds of letters from the funded children from the South and the north are the biggest support for the elderly, and 92 year old can still remember the difficulties of each of the letters.
his spirit is more precious than Zhaoyuan gold.
do good deeds and accumulate virtue. Liu Shenglan firmly believes that all the money donated will not fall ill when he is old. He really did not have a serious illness, cold is very few, and even a year was hit by a car two times, even skin trauma is not, only a little pain. After
the village for the elderly to apply for the five insured, the government in addition to the elderly 3800 yuan per year subsidies, the town will take out 200 yuan a month special funds and items to visit home. But the old man donated almost all their money to living expenses.

"I took a lifetime to know that poor days are not good. I have no child under my knees. What's the use of money? Although there is not much money on hand, it may be helpful to those poor children. " He's always saying that.
in August last year, Liu Shenglan was hospitalized for chronic renal failure, and he was still the most worried child on the bed. He was worried that the interruption and failure of the remittance would break the hopes of the children.
learned that grandpa was hospitalized, and many of the subsidized children came back to see him. In the same year, the college students, who had been helped by Joe, had been transferred from Ji'nan to the old hospital bed for many days.
thought of the good deeds of the old man, and many strangers came to greet him. Li Meixian of Xi'an, who identified himself as an old niece, sent a letter to him and said, "if you have a phone, I can talk with you."
the government sends the elderly to Zhaoyuan tires West District home for the aged. When he learned that he was "moving China", the old man put his hand, "what I do is insignificant, only hope that these children can study well and be a useful member of the country in the future."
Jing Yidan, the host of CCTV, said, "the spirit of the elderly is more precious than Zhaoyuan gold." I hope "to introduce such an honorable old man to the whole country on a platform like China, not only to familiarized the people of Shandong, but also to familiarized the people of the country."
