began to fight and the water jug (壶) fell into the well. The boys looked into the well and thought of their father.
They were afraid to go home.

Resting her phone on a stand and making the light more suitable, 49-year-old Lyu Min started her
livestreaming session — her daily job during the COVID-19 outbreak. Dressed in a qipao, a traditional Chinese
dress, Lyu started the livestreaming session from her workshop at 10 in the morning, sharing the art of making
Chinese knots with many handicraft(手工艺) lovers. Lyu, an inheritor(继承人) of the art of making Chinese knots,
which is listed as an intangible(非物质) cultural heritage, became a livestreaming host.
“Though the sales of Chinese knots have dropped a lot, I’m still confident that I can get out of the trouble
brought by the outbreak. I can make full use of this period to improve my skills and develop this traditional
handicraft online,” she said. Lyu is quite new to the world of livestreaming, having bought all the necessary
equipment(设备) after following her friends advice. She practises livestreamin g every day and records a large
number of educational videos. As face-to-face interaction is still impractical for many, even as the outbreak has
been largely brought under control in China, she thinks livestreaming classes can meet more Chinese knot lovers’
5 / 10needs to learn the handicraft.
She has integrated the anti-epidemic spirit into her works, expressing the determination(决心) and confidence
of the Chinese people to win against the COVID-19. “I love Wuhan, where I showed my works in 2019. Chinese
knots are popular among many local people, and I made lots of friends there,” Lyu said. She designed a special
Chinese knot to express her thanks to the medics who were sent to support Wuhan several months ago.
She has more than 200 followers right now. There are more and more Chinese knot lovers on her online
platform. She is using a length of colored string and determination to keep this traditional art of Chinese knots alive
online and help more people understand the culture.
