Characters experience of Li Binsheng

My grandfather Weng Enyu was a member of parliament in the early years of the Republic of China, and later returned to his hometown. At that time, most of the neighbors were intellectuals, and they had little chance to get in touch with the working people, and they simply lacked positive conditions for the formation of their outlook on life.

Four years later, he was transferred to Shenyang (renamed Fengtian at that time) and studied in the first grade of the Fifth Primary School in Shenyang.
