What impressed you about China's traditional culture?

When it comes to Kang Zhen, the first word that comes to mind is "educated man". Nowadays, there are not many literate people active in front of the public, not to mention Kang Zhen, who can be said to be very talented.

Recalling his own life experience, Kang Zhen is most grateful for his pursuit and practice of the scholarly family style of farming and reading culture: "I especially admire my grandfather. My grandfather is an illiterate old farmer in the northern Shaanxi Plateau. His family conditions are particularly poor, but he has trained his seven children, all of whom have become professors, people's teachers, military cadres and other talents through reading. "

"My grandfather didn't have the opportunity to go to school, but he was eager to learn since he was a child." Kang Zhen shared in the program "Thank you, My Home" that Grandpa was herding sheep in the village, which happened to be the winter school of the Wangs. He wanted to learn, but his family didn't allow him, so he secretly stood on the windowsill outside the door and poked enough paper with his finger. "From then on, he knew the hardships of learning and realized that it is difficult for a person to succeed without education."

Kang Zhen is an intellectual who grew up in such a family and has a strong thirst for knowledge. He himself went through hardships before he was finally admitted to Shaanxi Normal University and left Suide, a small county town.
