Re: 57 year old teacher stays at the bottom of the mountain to teach 6 students.
6 students are the children of the surrounding villagers, 1 miles from the school near the distance, 6 miles away, to turn over three or four mountains, parents mostly work around Xinyang. When the rain and snow was slippery, the old Peng Hui was relieved to send them home. Sometimes, there were parents calling from school, saying they didn't come back and let the children stay at school. In the evening, Lao Peng would wash his face, wash his feet and coax him to sleep as he used to treat his children. They catch mosquitoes in summer and warm their quilt in winter.
Lao Peng is a native white horse mountain man, the most faithful catcher of the land, and has never left since the middle of the 80s in the middle of the last century as a private teacher in the village. In fact, Lao Peng had many opportunities to leave the village. Once a business friend came to his home to find him, saying to go to the city to help take care of the business, the reward is much better than the teaching, the love is very supportive, "I was moved to move the idea." But at that time, when the new semester began, if he left, these students would be faced with no teacher. "Facing these lovely children, I really do not mind." Lao Peng said.
