"Mizhi County Records" says: "There is Mizhi water on the ground, and fertile soil is suitable for millet. Rice juice is like fat, so the millet made of rice fat in the famous city is golden and fragrant, which makes people fit. The story of Li Zicheng, the leader of the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty, and Diesim, who was ashamed of flowers and closed the moon in the Three Kingdoms, are all Mizhi people.

When I came to Mizhi and Yulin, I listened to mizhi poyi's wine songs and was praised by men and younger generations. It is a kind of enjoyment: "The mountains in northern Shaanxi come to enjoy the forest, and the mother-in-law Mizhi is really beautiful", "Mao Ge's sparkling eyes and pink face, and mizhi poyi's Saitianxian" ... are all self-composed "Steamed and sold now".
Mizhi poyi is not only beautiful in appearance, but also more beautiful in character and soul.
Mizhi is a famous "cultural county" in northern Shaanxi.

Many female students in Mizhi are like Lin Daojing in Song of Youth. Join the revolution. Among the female students in Mizhi, there is also a propaganda that "the feet are not bound, the hair is not set, and the short hat is cut: when a female soldier crosses the mountains, keep up with the team and go to Yan' an." "According to statistics, there were at least 100 people in mizhi poyi, who later became a cadre at the provincial and ministerial levels, and now there are more than 580 people at or above the county level.
In Mizhi Li Zicheng Palace, an exhibition on the revolutionary history of Mizhi women was held. "Falling red is not heartless, but turning into spring mud is more protective of flowers." In the exhibition, 1944 mizhi poyi Wang Runsheng, who joined the party, adopted 18 orphans with different surnames all her life, raised them and helped them to get married, while her son worked as a farmer at home and was called "the great mother". Mizhi poyi Yang Blunt, from scratch, founded the only deaf-mute school in Yulin, spreading love and wisdom to more than 50 deaf-mute children; Bai Yusheng, a national excellent teacher and provincial model worker, and Du Rujin, a national model worker and special-grade teacher, devoted themselves to education, watered the flowers of the motherland with their own efforts, and wrote a new chapter in the history of Mizhi education.
