In Aimin Village, this wedding also serves as a vivid epitome of the eight-year transformative leap brought by the poverty alleviation relocation program.

　　In the winter of 2018, Jarman and his family benefited from the relocation policy for poverty alleviation and settled in Aimin Village. They gradually adapted to the changes, enjoying a new life different from that of their ancestors. Jarman ran a small grocery store with Nurkerim, while his eldest and second sons both landed stable new jobs. Nurkerim also bought a pickup truck to run a transport business. It was this business that brought him together with his wife. For this family, the relocation is not only an opportunity for development, but also a path leading to happiness.

　　Over the past eight years, Jarman has expanded his courtyard and planted saplings year after year. His small yard, where not a single tree used to grow, is now shaded by lush, thriving woods. As relocation sites of the poverty alleviation relocation program, Aimin Village and neighboring Fumin Village are now home to 321 households, with at least one person employed per household on average.
