There are seven students in school. The three siblings share the same classroom. Nanbei Village is located in a mountainous region, and there is no Internet signal. In order to help the three siblings with study during the COVID-19 epidemic, principal Zhao Jincheng and other teachers went to Qin's home several times. Since bus could not reach the village, the teachers had to walk four kilometers of mountainous road. Now, the school reopens. (Xinhua/Yang Chenguang)
