Meet every night for "telephone porridge"

Duan Zhiyun, 48, and Jian Yongjian, 52, are a railway couple who have been married for more than 20 years.

Jian Yongjian, Director of Freight Department of Guangshui West Railway Station; Duan Zhiyun, Director of Passenger Transport Department of Guangshui Railway Station.

However, because of work, it is usually difficult for couples to meet at home, especially during the Spring Festival. As a result, the children of the two have served as "microphones" since they were in their 10s.

On the morning of January 20, the platform of Guangshui Railway Station. Only to see Duan Zhiyun holding a small horn in his hand, reminding passengers of safety from time to time, and helping passengers pick up their luggage from time to time. Since december 1997 to work at the station, this year is the 24th Spring Festival.

Guangshui West Railway Station, seven kilometers away, is a freight train station. Duan Zhiyun's husband, Jian Yongjian, works here, coordinating the loading and unloading of goods and shipping.

The two met shortly after work, when Duan Zhiyun was a short-distance passenger train attendant who would arrive at Jian Yongjian's station every time he made a round trip. In September 2000, Duan Zhiyun was transferred to Guangshui Railway Station, where the two worked in different places, and have maintained the habit of "cooking telephone porridge" at night.

Duan Zhiyun said that her husband understands and supports her work. In 2016, Duan Zhiyun was elected as a deputy to the Guangshui Municipal People's Congress. Under her continuous promotion, the square in front of Guangshui Railway Station was built this year, which is convenient for passengers to travel.

This year's Spring Festival passenger flow is only equivalent to 40% of previous years, but the task of epidemic prevention and control is very heavy. In addition to normal passenger transport work, Duan Zhiyun should also supervise the inspection of epidemic prevention and elimination, and guard the epidemic prevention and control line of the "North Gate".

Clever "microphone"

In the past 24 years, Duan Zhiyun has grown from passenger transport to director of the passenger transport department of the station, and 35 passenger transport personnel in the department account for half of the total number of employees of Guangshui Railway Station.

"Where there is a shortage of people, she will make up for it." Xu Jianxin, general secretary of the party branch of Guangshui Railway Station, said that she Duan Zhiyun has a strong sense of enterprise, even on rest days, she often runs to the station, is enthusiastic and willing to help people, and the office is full of pennants, but there is no time to take care of the family.

Every time he has his birthday, Tanabata Festival and other seasons, his husband will send himself a big red envelope. Duan Zhiyun said frankly that due to the busyness during the Spring Festival, every year the New Year goods are purchased by husbands and mothers-in-law.

Both were busy, and the daughter was brought up by her grandmother and aunt. Duan Zhiyun and Jian Yongjian said that they rarely accompanied the children to grow up, but the daughter was very sensible, because the two commuting time was often misplaced, it was difficult to meet, the daughter gradually became a "microphone" between the husband and wife.

Daughter Jian Xinmei said that she became a "microphone" during her school days - her mother often had some "nagging" to let her pass on to her father, and her father often had some "care" for her to bring to her mother.

Once, the couple was a little "estranged" because of a small matter. Jian Xinmei communicated from it, saying to her father that "mom knows it was wrong" and "dad misses mom" to her mom, and the gap was dissolved.

My daughter has a biggest wish

Jian Xinmei, 21, will graduate from Wuhan Railway Vocational and Technical College this year. At present, she has passed the selection and assessment of China Railway Wuhan Bureau Group Company and is about to become a railway employee.

In Jian Xinmei's eyes, although her parents are not often at home, she has the care of her grandmother and aunt, and she feels that her childhood is not alone.

"My mother would come home to see me whenever she was free, and she loved me very much." Jian Xinmei said that in addition to her parents and mother, many of her relatives such as her grandmother, uncle, aunt, aunt and so on were railway workers, influenced by their elders, and when she chose a job, she applied for the China Railway Wuhan Bureau Group Company.

From childhood to adulthood, her parents promised Jian Xinmei to travel many times, but she did not "swim" once. Not only that, the New Year's dinner of the family of three is eaten every year on the 26th and 27th of the Waxing Moon, and the Chinese New Year's Eve meal mother of the large family of 30 often "breaks the appointment". On the first day of the Chinese New Year, Mom and Dad were on duty, leaving her and Grandma at home.

In Jian Xinmei's eyes, Mom and Dad are like a top, always busy. She understands her parents very well and looks forward to a real trip for the family in the near future, which is her biggest wish at the moment.
