Wu Litian, a retired teacher of pingtan, an old art form that combines singing and storytelling, lost her way in a railway station recently. When the police found the 91-year-old and took her home, they found the words "Giving will reap the greatest harvest" pinned on her door and, subsequently, discovered her story.
Eight years ago, Wu came across a decrepit primary school in the mountains in Guizhou Province in southwest China. She decided to create a better environment for the students and donated almost all her savings to the school.
Two years later, she sold her sole property in an urban district of Shanghai and donated that money to construct a primary school in a village in east China, relocating to Shanghai's neighboring province Jiangsu.
