On this year's National Day, the seventieth anniversary of the founding of our country is a very great anniversary. At the military parade, all the people were proud of the country's growing strength and proud of the selfless dedication of the People's Liberation Army. But what makes the people most proud and tearful is the veterans of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, looking at their old faces one by one, looking at the medals of merit on their clothes, everyone is in awe. Without the sacrifice and dedication of these anti-Japanese heroes, there would be no motherland as strong and beautiful as it is now.
Today, the former anti-Japanese heroes and anti-Japanese fighters have slowly aged. Many anti-Japanese veterans enjoyed the preferential treatment of the state and spent a stable old age, but there were also many anti-Japanese veterans who lived in anonymity, lived very poorly, and even some were poor.
Among them, Qi Xiuti, who has been anonymous for decades, is a very poor veteran of the War of Resistance who can only survive by picking up garbage. Qi Xiuti may not know him, but he is really very distressing, and when he was discovered as a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War hero, Qi Xiuti was already 93 years old.
In that year, after the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, 16-year-old Qi Xiuti signed up to serve in the 195th Division of the Chinese National Revolutionary Army in order to have food for his family. He participated in many battles, and on the battlefield Qi Xiuti bravely killed the enemy, and his companions and good brothers fell one by one, and Qi Xiuti also suffered many injuries. Although there are not many records of Qi Xiuti, and there are no heroic deeds of him, those who joined the army to resist Japan are heroes!
Later, after the founding of New China, Qi Xiuti was criticized for his title status as a "miscellaneous army" in the Kuomintang army, completely ignoring his status as an anti-Japanese fighter. Qi Xiuti had to hide his name, but the people in the village always talked nonsense about him, and by the time Qi Xiuti was 93 years old, he felt that he could not lift his head.
Moreover, after Qi Xiuti was incognito at that time, he married a wife who was 10 years younger than himself, and the relationship between the husband and wife was very good. The couple, who originally saved 18,000 yuan, are ready to renovate a new house and retire with peace of mind. But who knew that they had been stolen by thieves overnight, and at that time, Qi Xiuti and his wife suddenly collapsed, and their savings were all gone. When Qi Xiuti recalled this incident, he couldn't help his tears and grievances.
Qi Xiuti and his wife had three children, two sons and a daughter. One of the sons played bare sticks for more than fifty years, and one of the sons went into the family of others. Although her daughter is not far from marrying, she can't take care of herself because her in-laws also have many things. Qi Xiuti and his wife were dependent on each other, and later Qi Xiuti's wife was found to have stomach cancer. Because the family had no money, Qi Xiuti had no way to treat his wife, so he had to place her at home. In his 90s, he took a snakeskin bag and went out to pick up garbage to make ends meet.
The elderly Qi Xiu Body himself could not walk steadily, because he could only eat vegetable nest heads every day, and Qi Xiu Body could not eat enough to be skinny all year round. Despite this, he was left to fend for himself, taking care of himself and taking care of his wife.
Until 2014, Qi Xiuti was discovered, and the media recorded the past and current situation of Qi Xiutian under the title of "The Late Life of a Veteran of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression". And this report was made public, and everyone felt sad after seeing it, and even some people saw tears. In order to help Qi Xiu ti, everyone has donated money, or directly sent food, sent wheelchair supplements for Qi Xiu Ti and his wife, and so on. He also set up a minimum guarantee for him, so that he and his wife could get a subsidy of 99 yuan per month.
Qi Xiuti was very excited and moved after receiving these, and for decades he could not lift his head because of his former identity. But in fact, as a veteran of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he obviously should enjoy the best treatment, but he did not enjoy it and suffered a lot. After 4 years, I hope that Mr. Qi Xiuti can always be well, able to eat and wear warm to spend a belated warm old age.
