I Gave Up Everything for the Poor in China |A British Lady’s Undying Spirit and Legacy

A decade ago, on a quiet street in Chengdu, China, a handicraft gift shop called "Blue Sheep" was quietly opened by a British old lady named Rachel. Today, Rachel is still living in Chengdu, helping handicraft producers in remote areas for ten years. What makes her keep the original desire to help others for the past decade? Let's walk into the touching stories behind this ten-year-old store.

谢谢这位英国女士！ 我相信很多中国人会衷心的感谢您的付出！

[@hihi-pd6wy]

能不能先讓英國把從中國皇宮御書房搶劫的超過70萬冊科技哲學典籍，數百萬件器物包括科技儀器實驗設備藥物試劑儀器儀錶等退還給中國啊。忙著找尋西方面孔來感動自己的物種，就不看看中國有多少跑到國外扶貧的嗎？十字軍唱屍班的低貝戔種群。每個嘴皮感動姿勢都令人作嘔。

China never forgets its true friends. Like Edgar Snow, Norman Bethune, David and Isabel Crook, Alfred Bosshardt, etc.
