In the shadow of a coal mountain, he and his wife, Yuan Chenglian, subsist on a diet of cabbage, potatoes, and corn gruel, splurging on meat only twice a year. One of the few decorations in their spartan home is a wedding photo showing a well-scrubbed couple in rental finery—he in a black tux, she in a long white gown carrying a dainty parasol. Yuan looks at her grimy clothes and laughs apologetically. "These photographers," she says, "can make anybody look beautiful."
