A teacher who teaches in a mountainous area once said, "It's not that I touched China, but that too many good people touched me." He is Xu Benyu, a 22-year-old teacher who teaches in the mountainous area of Guizhou. At this age, it is time to lay the foundation for your future career. Besides, his admission to the master's degree will make many people cast envious eyes! However, he chose to teach in Guizhou.
Before that, he hesitated and puzzled for a long time, imagining how disappointed his father would be and how sad his teachers and classmates would be.

Xu Benyu also has his own sadness and pain. The night in the mountains is quiet, and only frogs can sing in the grass. On such a night, many sad things will inevitably come to mind. He said, "I'm lonely. I woke up several times at night and my pillow was wet with tears. I couldn't hold on to it before ... "Once he went back to his alma mater to give a speech, all his classmates thought he would say something brave, but this was the first sentence he said, and everyone listened silently.
He thought: He is just an ordinary person, doing ordinary things, not because he touched China, but because there are many good people who have helped him persist until now, and they have given him strength and touched him.
For their own commitment, for children's eyes eager for knowledge, for sunlight to occupy children's hearts, for love to fill children's bodies like hydrogen. ...
