On December 21, at the settlement site in Chenjia Village, Dahejia Town, Linxia Prefecture, Gansu Province, the sound of children frolicking could be heard from an army-green tent. This is a rescue service point set up by a certain unit in the Western Theater, and the sign reads "Help for Difficulties, Psychological Assistance, and Child Care."
Soon, it became a tent for the second largest number of people to eat and see a doctor, and unlike the slightly quiet atmosphere of the first two places, the sound of frolicking from the door made the atmosphere of the resettlement area a little more relaxed.

The first psychological assistance point in the resettlement area
Guo Jiajia and her comrades-in-arms arrived in Chenjia Village on the afternoon of the 20th. Before coming, the comrades of the advance unit suggested that after the transfer to the resettlement work, there should be a psychological assistance point at the site for the people in the disaster area, especially for the children.
Li Juan, who had received professional psychological training in the army, and Guo Jiajia, who had studied psychology-related courses Xi college, became the best candidates to complete this task.
Both of them have neat short hair and gentle smiles. Less than a day and a half after they arrived, a group of children were glued to each other.
"We built a relationship of trust with them relatively quickly, and the children did not recognize each other. Li Juan said.

Guo Jiajia, a native of Sichuan, was about the same age as the children here when the Wenchuan earthquake struck in 2008. "At that time, we were also very afraid of the earthquake, but at that time, we were accompanied by teachers, and our parents quickly came to the school to pick us up and give us a lot of care and psychological counseling. ”
Yesterday, after the tent was set up, a seven-year-old girl was brought by her father, who said that she was shocked and frightened and did not want to speak or go home, not even her mother. "It was very difficult at first, telling her stories and riddles, and she didn't speak. Guo Jiajia was worried about her state, always kept patient, communicated with her slowly, thought about various topics, and only after talking for about two hours did she start to deal with people. "I'm a 'clingy elf' now."
Li Juan also met a little girl, yesterday afternoon, an uncle brought his five-year-old niece over. The girl was frightened by the earthquake and did not dare to sleep at night, and could only fall asleep with her parents in her arms. Li Juan uses the methods she has Xi in training to soothe children, and she compares the earthquake to a little devil who stretches his waist underground and loses his temper, and uses stories to reduce the child's fear. "This morning the uncle brought the child again and said that she slept well last night. ”

Guo Jiajia said, "I think what we are doing now is the same as the work done by teachers and volunteers back then, which is to let children get out of the fear of earthquakes, which is very meaningful.

The Temporary Custody Service responds to difficulties in a timely manner
In the densely populated resettlement area, the children are lively and active, but the adults have to be busy with the resettlement of their families. Children are running and playing everywhere, and there are many safety hazards. Childcare support is what is needed most at the moment. The rescue point was set up for a long time, and the children came one after another, and after finding that there were two sisters playing with them, they called friends to gather more people. The arrival of Li Juan and Guo Jiajia has relieved a lot of pressure on parents.
Guo Jiajia's cordial Sichuan dialect came out of the tent, "What do you guess what it means", and the children guessed and surrounded her in the middle, as if they had become the "child king".

Guo Jiajia introduced with a smile that communication with children should start from the topics they are interested in, such as where they are from, and learn each other'Xi s hometown dialect, we introduce each other's folk customs and life Xi, and chat very harmoniously.
The two prepared storybooks and picture books for the children, and accompanied them to tell stories and chat. If you stay indoors for a long time, you will also go out for a walk. "The children are full of curiosity and admiration for the PLA, and they are also very interested in the food truck we brought. So I took them on a tour of the food truck and explained to them what fuel the food truck burns, where to cook rice, and where to steam steamed buns. Guo Jiajia introduced.

Guo Jiajia, 22, is a college student who enlisted in the army and was a sophomore at Chengdu University of Technology last year. "I had a dream of joining the army since I was a child, but I missed the registration after the college entrance examination, and I only enlisted in the army in college. ”
They also hope to help people in the disaster area, regardless of size. "Yesterday, people came to us to help carry flour, set up tents, and carry things. "No matter how big or small, if you have difficulties, you can go to the PLA. During the chat, Li Juan and Guo Jiajia received the task to leave again, and when they came back with cardboard boxes, teapots and other items, the children ran over from a distance to greet them and hugged them tightly again.
