"The school's dinner is also funded by the Qin Yang Corporation. The intention is to relieve the pressure on the students' families. The school will also provide meals to ensure basic nutrition. The food might not be as rich as the food in schools in the city, but at least the basic nutrition could be guaranteed, so that the students would not eat less nutritious food at home than in school," Kejia explained.
"However, the children are still growing. After helping their parents with the farm work at night, they have actually consumed a lot of their school dinner. It is difficult for them to concentrate on their studies," Kejia explained. "We've asked around. Usually, when the children help their family with chores, the family will give them some food. Some eat steamed buns with salted vegetables, some drink the porridge left over from dinner, or some drink the leftovers from dinner at home. Those with better conditions can eat an egg."
