There is a disabled man named Wang Huiwang in Wanger Town, Yanshan County. He makes a living by singing about happy events in the countryside and working as a tour guide. Despite the hard life, he adopted five abandoned babies and two children from poor families and sent them to school to read and write. His good deed was a story in the land.

Wang Huiwang, 42, was born in Yincun, Qingxi Town, Yanshan County. He lost his mother when he was 2 years old and his father when he was 8 years old. A kind and lonely old man in our village adopted him. Unfortunately, two years later, his adoptive father died. He himself developed severe osteomyelitis and the muscles in his right leg atrophied, leaving him permanently disabled. After recovering from his illness, Wang Huiwang rapped everywhere with a good voice in order to make a living. When he was a little older, he came to Gexianshan as a "soil tour guide". Although life was very difficult, he did not steal, nor rob, nor take ill-gotten gains. One afternoon in July 1982, Wang Hui-Wang was rapping in Qiaodong Village, Wanger Town, Yanshan County, when he saw a burglar sneak into a villager's house and steal. He shouted for the thief, who dropped his money and ran in panic. Wang Hui-Wang picked up the money and waited until evening for the master to return it to him. The owner of the house was moved by Wang Hui-wang's honesty and kindness and volunteered to give him half of the old house to live in. This year, Wang Hui-Wang was 19 years old. From then on, he had a relatively fixed "home" that could shelter him from wind and rain.

Wang Hui-wang got a foothold because of his kindness, and adopted abandoned babies because he was an orphan. On the 16th day of the 8th lunar month in 1989, on the bustling streets of Wanger Town, a baby girl lay crying in a bamboo basket. By the next evening, when the crowd had dispersed, the abandoned baby was still lying in a bamboo basket in the street, dying. Passing by here Wang meeting Wang moved the heart of compassion, the baby girl embrace home and name Wang Yan. He invited old Lady Gu of Qiaodong Village to help take care of her. Six years passed and Wang Yan was old enough to go to school. Wang didn't want Wang Yan to be as blind as he was. In July 1994, he sent Wang Yan to Wang Er Town Central Primary School. Later, Wang Yan's biological father, Li Huolin, fell seriously ill and lay in bed, hoping to see his daughter again in his lifetime. He asked someone to find Wang Yan, in order to satisfy the desire of Wang Yan's father, Wang will Wang sent Wang Yan back to Li's home.

Since then, Wang has adopted four more abandoned babies. In every adoption, he never set terms. When his children fell ill, he tried without complaint to raise money for their treatment. The children wanted to go to school, and he did his best to meet their demands. After raising the baby for a while, Wang formed a bond with the child. When the biological father or the welfare department came to take the abandoned baby, Wang was reluctant, but never refused. He always said, "As long as the child has a future, I'm happy."

In 2001, Wang Hui-wang, 39, finally had a real home. His wife, He Lianxian, was also a miserable person. Five years ago, my ex-husband was out of town for a long time with mental illness, and my two children were in school. Wang met her when he rapped here. He sympathized with her and gave his only 35 yuan to He Lianxian. After He Lianxian's husband died of illness, Wang Hui-Wang took He Lianxian and her two children from Shangrao County to Qiaodong Village of Wang Second Town with the consent of his kind people and his daughter Wu Xiaozhi. They formed a special big family. But this particular family still made it their duty to adopt the abandoned baby and persevered through hardship and hardship.

Although Wang Hui-wang's family is very poor, he feels very happy. His wife, He Lianxian, keeps the house clean and tidy, and the children study very well. But as much as nearly ten thousand yuan tuition fees every year, the cost of living pressure Wang Huiwang out of breath, each semester at the beginning of Wang Huiwang will go around to borrow. Wang's story touched everyone, and many kind people extended their warm hands to this special family.
