Li Xiuhua, 46, Deng Qiqian, 7
Li lost two daughters in the earthquake. Last year, her husband also died in an accident, and she had to close her inn in Yingxiu and move to Dujiangyan for work. In the morning, she first drops her daughter at school and then rushes to her employer's home for work. She picks up her daughter from school in the evening after her employer returns home. The life is tough, but the most difficult days ended when her little girl was born. She said her biggest wish is to bring her daughter up.
