Eerdengulu is studying at Bayin College of Technology at Korla in Xinjiang. Eerden Qiaolu is a student at a primary school at Hejing County in Xinjiang. The two brothers returned to their home located in a remote valley in Tianshan Mountains which is a part of the Bayanbulak Steppe where they spent the winter vocation for almost three months living Jolum (small and low felt yurt). The elder brother Eerdengulu herded the animals while the younger brother helped their mother for house chores in the yurt. As the Spring Festival getting closer, the two brothers experienced an unforgettable winter break from participating various tasks preparing for the festival, celebrations of the festival and visiting friends and relatives during the holidays.
