Rural man Chen Guangtian, while handling abandoned equipment in the village, disregarded everyone's criticism and took out his son's tuition money to buy an old rice mill about to be dismantled. This matter filled his wife with grievances, neighbors mocked him one after another, and even his wife's family members found it hard to understand his decision. While going out to take on repair jobs to raise tuition fees, he devoted his energy to repairing the malfunctioning old machine. As the New Year approached, the village's new rice mill suffered a sudden breakdown due to overloading, and the villagers fell into a dilemma for milling rice. The repaired old rice mill came to the rescue in times of emergency, and Chen Guangtian and his wife strictly observed the rules of registration and queuing, greeted the fellow villagers fairly, and properly resolved neighborhood disputes.
