Recently, photos showing a young girl begging on the street while simultaneously doing homework under a quilt on the streets of Linyi, Shandong province, have attracted the attention of many Internet users. Netizens have expressed their willingness to help the girl. Meanwhile, the man in the photos, who appears to be the girl’s father, has been widely condemned. So what’s the real story behind the photo? A reporter from Qilu Evening News went to investigate on Oct. 25.

　　最近，一组照片显示山东临沂街头一名小女孩在寒风中乞讨，同时还披着被子做作业，许多网民都被这则新闻吸引了注意力。许多网民都表示说愿意帮助这名小女孩。与此同时，照片中似乎是小女孩父亲的男子则被广泛谴责。那么照片背后的故事到底是怎样的呢?10月25日《齐鲁晚报》一名记者对此事进行了调查。

　　The reporter visited the two subjects of the photos in Wangnanzhuang Village in Linyi’s Linshu County. Wang Jiuchang, the man in the photos, confirmed that the girl, Ji Honghong, is in fact his daughter. He also has a son who is in junior high school and lives with his grandparents. According to Wang, his wife has a mental illness, so he has had to bring his daughter with him when he goes begging since the girl was only 1 month old. They have begged in many cities.

　　记者在临沂临沭县旺南庄村找到了照片中的男子和小女孩。照片中的男子名叫王久昌，他承认照片中的女孩的确是他的女儿，名叫季红红。他还有一个儿子，现在正在上初中，和他的爷爷奶奶住在一起。据王久昌透露，他的妻子有精神疾病，因此当他乞讨的时候，不得不把女儿带在身边，当时季红红只有一个月大。王久昌和季红红已经在很多城市乞讨过了。

　　Ji Honghong, now 6, is currently in first grade. She studies in a local primary school. However, on weekends, her father brings her around the city to beg.

　　季红红现在已经6岁大了，目前正在读小学一年级。她在当地一所小学上学。但是，每逢周末的时候，王久昌就会带着季红红去城里乞讨。

　　A neighbor told the reporter, “The girl is the biggest selling point of Wang’s ‘begging business.’ Wang is lazy. He can earn more money through begging than farming.”

　　一位邻居告诉记者说：“季红红是王久昌‘乞讨生意’最大的卖点。王久昌很懒。他乞讨比种地赚的钱更多。”

　　Many neighbors gave the same appraisal of Wang, commenting that he is lazy. The village Communist Party chi told the reporter that Ji Honghong is a clever child. However, her family has exerted some bad influence on her.

　　许多邻居都给了王久昌一样的评价，说他很懒。村委会书记对记者透露说，季红红是一个聪明伶俐的孩子。但是，小红红的家庭给她产生了一些不好的影响。

　　“If Wang Jiuchang said yes, I would be willing to take care of the child instead,” the chi said.

　　村委书记表示说：“如果王久昌同意的话，我愿意来照顾小红红。”

　　A local official said that Ji Honghong is not an orphan, so they have to let Wang Jiuchang raise his own child. However, they will try to keep him from taking the girl to beg.

　　据当地一名官员表示说，小红红并不是孤儿，因此他们不得不让王久昌抚养季红红，因为那是他自己的孩子。但是，他们将会设法阻止他再带着小红红一起乞讨。
