"Please get out of the car, scan the itinerary code and health code..." At about 5 p.m. on January 20, at the epidemic prevention and control service point in Duangou Village, Anliang Town, Wuxian County, a young black woman wearing a mask was checking the health code and itinerary code of passers-by and measuring the experience for passers-by. Although she is not fluent in Chinese, her serious and careful attitude has left a deep impression.
The black volunteer, whose Chinese name is Pei Xin, is from Zimbabwe and is married to the daughter-in-law of Duangou Village. On duty with her that day, there were also two female college student volunteers in the village, Zhang Yu and Zhang Mengdi, who cooperated tacitly. The reporter saw at the scene that not long after, Pei Xin had taken the temperature of several passers-by one and checked their itinerary cards and health codes. Seeing that the passers-by information was registered and the body temperature was normal, Pei Xin released the warning rope to signal everyone to enter the village.
Pei Xin is 28 years old and a native of Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe. Her husband, Zhang Yongchao, is proficient in ceramics making, is good at hand painting and painting, and was hired by Luoyang Guobang Porcelain Industry in early 2019 to work in Zimbabwe with a high salary. Pei Xin's sister Lisa had studied in China and was hired as a translator for Zhang Yongchao, and when she learned that Zhang Yongchao had no girlfriend, Lisa introduced her sister to him, and she did not expect the two to fall in love at first sight. Later, due to the end of his term of appointment, after obtaining the consent of the parents of both parties, Zhang Yongchao returned to China with Pei Xin and received his marriage license on December 10, 2019. They never went back because of the pandemic.
"It's been two months since my dad's brother died, and he's [covid-19 patient]." Pei Xin said that the epidemic in his hometown is very serious, but he does not wear a mask and no one cares, "China's epidemic prevention is very good, I am safe." ”
The straight-line distance between Duangou Village, where Pei Xin is located, and The straight-line distance between Shenyuan Town in Yuzhou City is only 3 kilometers, and there are 1183 people in 358 households in the village, and there are currently 24 people in 24 households who are isolated at home, and 12 people who are monitored at home. In order to do a good job in epidemic prevention and control, the village has only one entrance and exit, and a volunteer team of 14 college students and village cadres has formed a volunteer team to adhere to the prevention and control service points, do a good job of registration and village boundary patrols, and deliver vegetables and noodles to buy daily necessities for the people in home isolation. After seeing this, Pei Xin actively signed up and engaged in volunteer service with her husband. Since there were no volunteer costumes in the village and no red armbands, they put some of the "militia" armbands they found on their arms as volunteer symbols. As a result, this black girl with the "militia" armband and several villagers have become a beautiful scenery in Duangou Village under the epidemic.
"I often tell my mother that China's epidemic prevention is good and we are all safe." Pei Xin said that Duangou Village is planted with shiitake mushrooms and raised with red bulls, "I really hope that the epidemic will pass soon, and my family can also come to China and come to Wuxian To see." ”
