"Dou Yanshan, there is a righteous side. Teach five sons, and be famous. ”
In the three-character classic, Dou Yujun taught his son in a good way, so that the story of the five children who were all high school jinshi is still in my ears.
In modern times, in the small county town of Shuozhou, Shanxi, the story in this three-character classic is once again truly interpreted, even more powerful than the story in the three-character classic.
A pair of parents with little culture, but their family has produced 1 academician, 9 doctors and 2 masters.
The story of this family has also become a good story in the local area.
Parents of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences
In 2018, Yang Guilian was lying on a hospital bed dying, and her eldest daughter Gao Ping asked, "Do you want Gao Fu to come back?" ”
Yang Guilian, who was lying on the hospital bed and was a little unconscious, was miraculously sober up a little after hearing this, and then she shook her head.
Then he said: "Don't let him come back, he is busy now, and he is contributing to the country".
After saying this, Yang Guilian fell into a coma again, and passed away after a while.
In media interviews, Gao Fu said more than once that his brothers and sisters can become dependent on the teachings of their parents.
In Gao Fu's mouth, although his mother Yang Guilian is an illiterate rural woman, she is a person with great wisdom, and Gao Fu also proudly calls her mother "literate and illiterate".
In 1957, carpenter Gao Cunxi was introduced to Yang Guilian, and with the matchmaker's matchmaking, the two soon got married.
After marriage, the two lived very happily, although they lived in poverty, but the two still gave birth to two girls, four boys and six children.
After having a child, Yang Guilian was responsible for taking care of the child at home, and Gao Cunxi was responsible for going out to do carpentry work to earn money.

Although Gao Cunxi's income is not so high, Yang Guilian still manages this home in an orderly manner with her own efforts, and has never put any pressure on Gao Cunxi.
Although life is tight, Yang Guilian, who has never read since she was a child, is very strict about her children's education.
No matter which child she wants, she asks for schooling, and even if the family does not have enough money for tuition, she has to borrow five yuan from a neighbor to let the children continue to study.
In order to pay for the children's school fees, the family's life is even more difficult, but Yang Guilian never said that the children would drop out of school, even relatives.
On this day, a relative came to Yang Guilian's house as a guest, and when he saw that Yang Guilian's clothes were in tatters, he persuaded her to make a better dress, but Yang Guilian said that the money should be left for the children to go to school.
When the relatives heard this, their expressions were very puzzled, and they opened their mouths and asked, what kind of school is the child going to when he is so old, and it is time to work to support the family.
Yang Guilian's face immediately changed after hearing this, but in line with the affection between relatives, she still politely replied that she couldn't say no, it was better to let the children study, and it didn't matter if the clothes were not clothes.
Then I heard this relative say, that girl should not study, anyway, she will be a member of someone else's family in the future, so she should just drop out of school now to make money.
Hearing this, Yang Guilian couldn't take care of her relatives anymore, so she got up and asked the relative to leave.
In Yang Guilian's view, whether it is a son or a daughter, they should all study, and only by reading can they be productive.
Under the teaching of Yang Guilian, the Gao Fu brothers and sisters all studied hard and were good students in the eyes of the teacher.
The children are all talented
In 1977, the mainland officially restored the college entrance examination system, and in the following year, because of the increasing number of college entrance examination students, the state specially approved the addition of 169 ordinary colleges and universities.
By 1979, the number of students admitted to colleges and universities across the country reached 284,000, and Gao Fu was one of those 264,000.
In August 1979, the weather was exceptionally hot, but the atmosphere in Gao Cunxi's home was tense as if he had walked into an ice cellar.
The reason is that in a few minutes, a person from the Education Bureau came to Gao Cunxi's home and told Gao Cunxi a helpless news.
"Your child Gao Fu's grades have passed the bachelor's degree, but due to the loss of part of the file, the file has not been completed, and now he can only study in a junior college, you should now quickly contact the comrades who recruited to fight for it."
After hearing the news, Gao Cun was filled with joy and sorrow, happy that his son Gao Fu was really angry, and passed the undergraduate line in the college entrance examination, and the sad thing was that his son was so unlucky, this kind of thing happened.
In a hurry, Gao Cunxi hurriedly found the phone number of the recruitment office and called.
At this time, in the office recruited by Shanxi Province, he didn't even dare to turn on the fan, because any material here was related to the child's future.

The phone rang, and Gao Cunxi said his problem to the recruitment staff in a trembling voice.
"Comrade, my child's score line has passed the undergraduate level, but the comrades from the Education Bureau said that part of the file was lost, resulting in no successful submission, what should you do about this matter?"
Finally, under the guidance of the staff, Gao Cunxi took the certificate issued by the Education Bureau, took his son Gao Fu to the Shanxi Provincial Recruitment Office, and explained the situation to the staff.
Under the coordination of the provincial recruitment office, Gao Fu finally entered Shanxi Agricultural University and studied in the Department of Veterinary Medicine.
Although it is not Gao Fu's favorite major, Gao Fu still quickly adjusted his mentality.
When he took a course in microbiology in his freshman year, Gao Fu was quickly fascinated by the magic of microbiology and established his own direction.
In order to realize his ideals, he began to study English in his spare time, but the learning of English needed some help from external objects.
So in 1980, Gao Fu spent a huge amount of money to borrow 180 yuan to buy a radio, you know, at that time, Gao Fu took the 10 yuan given by his family plus a bursary to cover a semester's living expenses.
However, Gao Fu bought a radio in order to learn English well, and under such conditions, Gao Fu's English level improved by leaps and bounds, and in 1983, he was admitted to China Agricultural University to study for a master's degree.
In 1991, Gao Fu was admitted to the national government-funded study abroad quota and went to Oxford University in the United Kingdom to study for a doctorate.
After completing his Ph.D., Gao Fu officially started his own scientific research path, and in 2004, Gao Fu returned to China and began to show his strength in immunology.
Until 2013, Gao Fu was successfully elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the following year he was elected as an academician of the Third World.
In addition to Gao Fu, the other children and grandchildren of the family are also successful, with a total of three PhDs from Oxford University, one PhD from Cambridge University, four PhDs from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and one PhD from Sichuan University.
There is also a master's degree from the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom and a master's degree from Guangxi University.
In this family, it can be said that there are many talents.
epilogue
The story of Gao Cunxi's family has not only become a good story praised by everyone in the county, but also set an example for the people of the whole country.
The phrase "knowledge changes destiny" is truly embodied in this family. And the story of Gao Cunxi and Yang Guilian also proves to everyone that family education is not necessarily about teaching children what knowledge, but more importantly, about teaching children the truth of life.
The most important thing for the birth of a scholarly family is the inheritance of family style.
