In Liu Yang's memory, his hometown at that time was a poor village in Wangcheng County. In his mind, childhood is just a bitter and hard memory, not a happy time. Because the family was poor, at that time, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, which were common to others, tortured the Liu Yang family all the time. These hard experiences in childhood have taught rural children in Liu Yang the spirit of hard work, simplicity, kindness, hard work, self-improvement and never giving up. It is precisely because of these childhood sufferings and hardships that he is convinced that only reading can change the face and everything of poverty at home. When I was in primary school, Liu Yang was very sensible and diligent. Every time he comes home from school, he and his sister help their parents with housework and farm work and take care of their younger brother.
However, misfortune will come to people one day. When Liu Yang/Kloc-0 was 0/0 years old, his father left his emaciated mother and their three sisters in a car accident and quietly left. Childhood should be sunny and joyful, but in Liu Yang's world, the sky is so deep and dark. Faced with the great changes in life and the stormy home, he resolutely shouldered the burden of the family with his tender shoulders. Since then, life has made him miserable and tasted countless bitterness and suffering. At a young age, he is also more eager to lead his family out of trouble through reading. After entering Lei Feng Middle School, he studied hard and got excellent grades. At that time, he made a dream: to go to college and change the fate of his family! So he forgot to eat and sleep and studied hard. However, the bitter family always makes Liu Yang feel inferior. He can't afford all kinds of study fees and often has no choice but to ask for accommodation from the school. Even the registration fee for the final graduation exam was paid by the class teacher. I don't know if you have thought about it. If it were you, how would you face the strange eyes of your classmates? What kind of heart do you have in the face of others' uninformed remarks? With strong self-esteem, how will you eliminate the scars in your childhood? Is it crying? Is it an escape? Liu Yang, strong and short, didn't cry or run!
Although life is so hard and unfair for Liu Yang, he still didn't give up his studies, but worked day and night, watering his dreams, and finally rewarded his efforts. He got his wish and was admitted to the provincial key high school. On that day, Liu Yang was very excited to get the admission notice. He flew home and happily gave the notice to his mother. Mother was happy and was silent for a while. Finally, she stammered and said to him with tears in her eyes, "son, going home ... is really ... too poor, and mom has no ability ... for you to learn." Please accept your fate! " When I heard that, he seemed to suddenly fall into the abyss, growling helplessly at the sky and running to the river. His mother was afraid of his shortsightedness and ran out after him, struggling to pull Liu Yang. Liu Yang looked at his tearful mother, remembered her stormy home and cried with her mother. ...
In July, 2000, Liu Yang and her sister, who were studying in a key high school, were forced to drop out of school and began to wander and struggle in the society. After entering the society, Liu Yang began to sell vegetables in the street. Every time he watched his classmates ride to high school, he could only sit in front of the stall and watch their relaxed and happy backs go away. Reading has long been an unreachable dream in Liu Yang's mind, and he can only walk with them in his dream. When his classmates were in high school, he dreamed that he was in high school, and his classmates were admitted to the university. He also dreamed that he was admitted to the university. When his classmates were in college, he also dreamed that he was in college. Every time he wakes up, he looks at his poor home and weak mother, and he can't help crying secretly.
Later, introduced by relatives, Liu Yang worked as a cashier in the game room near Central South University. There, Liu Yang met many college students, and their talents and passions gradually infected him. With their encouragement, Liu Yang's unwilling to lag behind and mediocre heart surged again, dreaming day and night how happy he would be if he were one of the passionate and ambitious young people in the ivory tower of the university! But he realized that it was impossible, so Liu Yang had to walk out of the game room firmly. He started his apprenticeship by taking a hydropower master in the village as a teacher, assiduously studying hydropower installation technology and trying to realize his life value with practical knowledge!
In May 2002, after studying hard for a year, Liu Yang left school and took his younger brother to the streets of Changsha. The construction site in June was dusty and extremely hot, but it was bitterly cold in winter, but Liu Yang and his younger brother worked hard together. They carry luggage and tools every day, ride broken bicycles, sleep in the wind, are unkempt and do dirty and tired work. At work, a pair of hands are often hurt by a hammer, but they are reluctant to spend money to dress them; My younger brother is often reluctant to eat a box lunch, and only eats two steamed buns to satisfy his hunger. In this way, the two brothers saved their hard-earned money piece by piece and went home to give it to their mother at the end of each month. Looking at their mother's happy smile when she received the money, the two brothers were filled with happiness.
However, in this peaceful era, the meager wages that migrant workers on the construction site get with hard sweat are often owed by the contractor. At the end of 2003, Liu Yang and his younger brother worked hard for a year, looking forward to getting hard-earned money to go home for the New Year. But the contractor bullied their youth and ignorance, bullied their cowardice and incompetence, and maliciously defaulted on the wages of the bad karma brothers. When the two brothers watched other people's children carrying luggage one by one, they happily went home for the New Year with gifts for their parents, thinking that their thin and lonely mother was also eager to see it. While waiting for the two brothers to go home together, the helpless brother cried and knelt down to the contractor, but in the end he only got 200 yuan money to go home for the New Year. I don't know how many people know this pain.
In this way, in the noise of machines and flying dust, five years passed silently. Every day, Liu Yang, a little man, is carrying heavy tools and doing high-intensity manual labor on the construction site. He is envious of watching the project manager command migrant workers with drawings. Later, the company needed a high school education to recruit engineering managers among its employees, but Liu Yang was turned down because he only had a junior high school education. At that time, he secretly made up his mind to continue studying. June, 5438+October, 2006/KLOC-0, Liu Yang junior high school students organized a reunion. At that time, there were 22 students attending the party, only Liu Yang was working outside the home, and all the other students were undergraduates. At that time, he was very sad. In the evening, I was with a sophomore from Harbin Engineering University, and Liu Yang chatted with him about the past. At that time, their family was also poor, and Liu Yang was surprised by his schooling experience. After listening to the bitterness and hardships of studying told by that classmate, Liu Yang made up his mind that he would continue to study no matter what difficulties he faced!
After a long and painful night in trouble sleeping for countless times, Liu Yang expressed his college dream buried in his heart for many years and decided to hand over all his engineering career to his younger brother. After the family listened to Liu Yang's idea, my sister and brother supported his decision very much and bravely shouldered the burden of taking care of the family. After repeated persuasion, my mother finally reluctantly agreed to his decision with tears in her eyes.
In March 2006, Liu Yang finally got his wish, entered Changsha Industrial and Commercial Vocational Secondary School and began to study architecture. Time flies, while studying hard, Liu Yang used his vacation to earn tuition and living expenses, and served as the monitor. During his study, he won several school scholarships; At work, he earnestly carried out various class activities, won the "outstanding student cadre" in Yuelu District, and won many awards such as "three good students", "learning from Lei Feng" and the first prize in the essay competition.
In June 2007, many students chose employment, and Liu Yang chose the college entrance examination without hesitation. In order to solve the problem of tuition and living expenses of senior three, so that he can study quietly, Liu Yang contacted many parties in the summer vacation and took over a decoration project with a salary of 16000 yuan. For more than two months in the summer vacation, he devoted himself to the project construction, organized the construction with his own professional knowledge, and ate, slept and worked with the workers' master. At the end of the summer vacation, the project was successfully accepted, and he also earned tuition and living expenses for senior three through this project. Back to school, in order to study wholeheartedly and save money, Liu Yang resolutely stopped his cell phone and locked himself in a shabby warehouse in the school, where there was only a desk and a chair. A pile of abandoned tools, dirty walls around, and even rice were brought in by classmates.
In June 2008, after reviewing in this warehouse for one year, at the age of 24, he was admitted to the civil engineering major of Shaoyang University with a score of 605, becoming the only student admitted to the undergraduate course in this school. After several years of twists and turns and struggles, Liu Yang finally realized his college dream hidden in his heart for more than ten years! Entering the university, he made a series of study and life plans. In his freshman year, he studied hard and took an active part in various activities. He won the first prize in the speech contest of "Promoting Lei Feng Spirit" and the honor of "Career Planning Star" in the career planning contest for college students. In order to further improve his abilities in all aspects, Liu Yang joined the Academic Science and Technology Department of the department, became an officer and served as a class mental health committee member. But what worries Liu Yang most is his future tuition and living expenses, because all his savings from three years of vocational high school have been spent. So, he began to look for part-time jobs everywhere in the streets and alleys of Shaoyang city. At first, he wanted to find a tutor, but he didn't go to high school and others didn't want to hire him. In order to find a job as soon as possible, he asked his classmates to help him find it, and also asked his classmates to help him post job advertisements and turn around. Only one tutor was found in the end. But it can't afford his meager expenses at all. Anxious, he kept looking for a job while borrowing money from his classmates. Finally, he found a better job in the telecom business hall by virtue of his own ability. This time is busy and full. This helpful big brother also uses his own specialty to set up professional training courses in his spare time to tutor his classmates free of charge; Using my own hydropower technology, I am enthusiastic about repairing small household appliances, faucets, dredging sewers and so on for my classmates around me.
However, life is not so satisfactory, because Liu Yang didn't go to high school, his cultural foundation is poor, and the courses of science and engineering in universities are very abstruse. Soon, English, mathematics and other cultural classes frequently turned red. In order to complete his studies, he was forced to give up his part-time job, cut back on some activities and devote himself to his studies by borrowing living expenses from relatives and friends.
20 10 constantly adjust the learning methods. In order to learn the knowledge points in books, Liu Yang often reads books all night. English is his weakness, so he gets up at six every morning and runs to the playground to practice his spoken English. Use ten minutes between classes to remember words on the way to and from school. Every holiday, he will go back to school early and stay alone in the library to review. Finally, through unremitting efforts, he completed the study of culture class, successfully passed the provincial computer level 2 and English level 4, and took part in the English level 6 exam. Professionally, Liu Yang won "Double Excellent" in the practice of "Civil Engineering Survey", and the course design was also rated as an excellent work for many times. At work, during his tenure as monitor, he led his classmates to carry out various class activities. Under the leadership of department leaders, their class won the title of "learning from Lei Feng" in one fell swoop.
Having worked in the construction site for six years, he knows that obtaining the certificate of builder is a necessary condition for becoming a project manager. So, in April of 20 10, Liu Yang entered the registration period and began the "devil-like" training. Every day, besides attending classes, he spends all his time reviewing exams. His mind is full of architect's knowledge points and exercises, and he even reads books crazily all night. Malicious energy overdraft also made him suffer a lot, but God rewarded his efforts. After two months of intense review, I successfully passed the second-level constructor exam. It's a rainy day. 20 10 just after the spring festival, Liu Yang suddenly received a phone call from his family: his younger brother was tricked into engaging in pyramid schemes in Hebei by his workmates, and he began to cheat his family with pyramid schemes. It was like a bolt from the blue. He immediately contacted his younger brother in Hebei, but by this time his younger brother had been completely brainwashed and completely explained his behavior with lies.
In order to save his younger brother, Liu Yang asked for leave from the department and immediately rushed home to discuss with his family how to save his younger brother. Stepfather has gone to Hebei to find his younger brother. When he heard that there was a love-seeking program on the TV station in the city, he immediately found the TV station with his mother. But because the object he was looking for was not in the province, the TV station refused to accept it, and this hope was ruthlessly shattered. Stepfather pursued for thousands of miles, but he couldn't find his younger brother in Hebei. Finally, the helpless family had to use the bad news of their mother's death to trick their younger brother into going home. Finally, my brother came back. However, his character has changed a lot in the bitter days, and he also fantasizes about getting rich through pyramid schemes. In order to save his younger brother, Liu Yang has been patiently communicating with his younger brother and carefully enlightening him. Finally, he was slowly moved by the true feelings between brothers. My brother stopped going to pyramid schemes, and my family was relieved.
Liu Yang rushed back to school, but it rained all night. Just two days after I arrived at school, my family called-my stepfather and mother had an accident, and they were both in the hospital, seriously injured. Hearing the bad news, Liu Yang Jr. rushed back to Changsha on a starry night, and saw his parents lying in the operating room, so he couldn't help crying. After more than two hours of surgery, my stepfather was pushed out and my mother was still lying in pain on the operating table.
It was a long night, and he and his sister stood beside their parents, carrying shit and urine for them. My parents' car accident was caused by a motorcycle hitting a pile of waste bricks on the side of the road. The boss who abandoned bricks has an unshirkable responsibility. While taking care of her parents, Liu Yang began to look around. In the end, Liu Yang was busy for a week and failed to claim compensation. However, parents lying in the hospital still need to be taken care of. Liu Yang became a housewife, ran from home to the hospital, helped her parents do housework, helped her parents cook soup and stayed in bed with her parents. Every night when he comes home with a tired body, he still insists on studying and catching up on the lessons he left behind.
A month passed and my parents' injuries gradually improved. Liu Yang also spent all his part-time living expenses because of family changes. With the help of old classmates, Liu Yang took the borrowed living expenses, bid farewell to his parents and went south to return to school. Like an arrow in the string, I entered my junior year in a blink of an eye. Liu Yang chose the road and bridge direction, served as the class league secretary, and worked part-time in China Telecom, responsible for the campus marketing of urban construction departments and electrical departments. Back to school for five years, doing odd jobs and part-time jobs, from migrant workers on the construction site to college students. 27 years of ups and downs, bitter and sweet, he kept in mind. Because of years of hard living conditions, at the age of 27, his body began to decline, suffering from gallbladder polyps, right liver cysts and other diseases, but he will never be knocked down by difficulties. In his words: "Although the road ahead will be full of thorns and bumps, I will never exchange the tears of failure for the sympathetic eyes of others, only the hard sweat for the admiration of others."
20 1 1 In March, the college leaders invited Liu Yang to give a lecture tour on the campus after learning about Liu Yang's self-improvement deeds. Shaoyang Evening News and related media reporters interviewed Liu Yang's deeds and reported relevant articles, encouraging more people to learn from him.
