Yuzhron, a 90-year-old woman lives in Samye Town of Shannan city, China's Xizang. Before 1959, as a young girl, she could only exchange a handful of tsampa from the landlord by spinning yarn all day. Her family had no house and just used one tattered blanket to keep warm. After the democratic reform in Xizang in 1959, Yuzhron was allocated farmland and a house. Now, her family has opened a teahouse, enjoying a happy life.
