A video of a student from a rural area of Yunnan province receiving a top-notch university's acceptance letter has moved countless netizens in China.

On Monday, China Post's official Douyin account posted a video showing a postal worker delivering the acceptance letter of Dalian University of Technology to Yao Shengwang.

When the postman delivered the acceptance letter, Yao came back with the ginger he had just dug from the field, with hands covered in soil. After washing his hands and changing into clean clothes, he opened the letter, choking up as he read the contents.
