Ou Pingqin was a teacher in a special school for deaf and mute (聋哑的) students of Daye in Hubei, who has recently been considered the Most Beautiful Teacher in China.
After graduating, she went to this school alone and worked there for nearly twenty years.
The headmaster of the school said, "She worked hard and taught well. She was a backbone teacher in our school. She was also the most welcome teacher among, the students. For students, she was like a mother. They called her Little Mother."
One day, when she was talking with her students in the dormitory, it looked as if something heavy would fall off. It was dangerous. At that time, without any hesitation (犹豫), she pushed two students away, but she was hit heavily. However。she continued working with great pain later.
One of her colleagues (同事) said, "Ou Pingqin was not only a teacher but also a mother to her students in her class. She cared about their studies and even their life. She was very strict in her work."
A student's parent said, "She was very warmhearted. My son lot his father who supported the family. Every month, the teacher gave him 100 yuan to buy books from her own income."
She devoted all her life to the teaching and her students, but she didn't marry when she died at the age of 36.
Ou Pingqin's deeds have drawn much attention in the country. She was the students' Little Mother, but gave them great love.
