"My brother's pot bun meat is particularly good, and other Northeastern dishes are also very good." The elder brother Xu Tiejun said that his brother called him before the Spring Festival and told him to pay attention to his body, because his body has not been very good, while his brother is white and fat, and his body has not been wrong.
One day before the Spring Festival, Xu Tiejun received a phone call from the owner of the hotel where his brother worked, "Saying that my brother was sick and hospitalized." ”

According to Xu Tiejun, the younger brother accidentally saw the news of organ donation when he was on the Internet, and then felt that donating organs could save the lives of others, which was very meaningful, so he made a registration.
"Brother, no matter when I fall ill or die suddenly, donate my body to the country, save other people's families, and save a few families." After the younger brother finished registration, he called Xu Tiejun to tell him. At that time, Xu Tiejun was very surprised and unhappy in his heart.
"Because we all pay attention to the 'fallen leaves to the roots', no matter how far away from home, when we die, we must take the ashes back and bury them in front of our parents, but he did not consult with me, and decided to donate organs and remains." Xu Tiejun recalled his brother's words, and his voice gradually became lower, and it was difficult to hide the sadness of losing his brother. After a pause, Xu Tiejun said: "After my brother explained it several times, I slowly accepted it and agreed with his approach. ”
