    Chen Jinying who is called "Honest Lady" comes from Lishui, Zhejiang. She is 90 years old. She used to be a boss. After she retired(退休), she opened a clothes factory and it went very well. In 2011, her factory was in trouble and she was in debt(欠债), so she had to sell her apartment and her factory to pay back her debt.

    After ten years, she finally paid back all her debt. It's said that someone advised her to apply for bankruptcy(申请破产), then she could avoid paying back her debt, but she refuse. "I can't do that. When we're in debt, we must pay it back." The old lady sold most of her things to pay back the debt because of this faith. Some businessmen were so touched by this "Honest Lady" that they reached out to help her. When things became better, she gave away jackets worth more than 20, 000 yuan to an old people's home and more than 140 persons received the warmth she passed.

    Chen shows us how to be an honest and trustworthy(可信赖的) person. When one person loses his honesty, he'll fail. The 90-year-old lady not only moves us, but also gives us a true lesson in honesty.
