On December 22, a kneeling walker with a ragged clothes and a child who was less than six or seven years old arrived at the earthquake-stricken area in Gansu with 50,000 yuan of materials to deliver urgently needed living materials to the victims.
This disabled man is a post-90s waste picker, his name is Hu Lei, born in 1993, his father died when he was very young, after his father left, his mother walked out of the house one morning and never came back, he can only rely on his elderly grandmother for his life, living a difficult life.
However, the roof leak was rainy again. One day when Hu Lei was 6 years old, he suddenly developed a high fever, and he had no money for treatment, so he contracted polio. A lonely old man, a severely disabled teenager, their days can be imagined.
Although from time to time there were neighbors and well-wishers who gave him a little help, the simple Hu Lei remembered the kindness of people, and the simple idea of repaying others was born from an early age. When Hu Lei was a little older, he followed his grandmother and barely survived by picking up empty bottles and waste paper boxes.
When he was growing up, a kind person gave him a wheelchair, and he had a means of transportation, but he rarely used it. wheel
The chair made him feel the warmth in the cold, and the seeds of caring for others grew in his heart little by little.
Later, as he grew up, he dragged his disabled legs and walked down the street picking up waste cardboard boxes, empty bottles, and occasionally selling small items. The money was not easy to come by, and he was reluctant to buy himself new clothes, let alone improve his living and living conditions, so he saved every penny.
More than a decade ago, Hu Lei, who was struggling to make a living by selling scrap, had a naïve notion that he always wanted to do something for others. He has funded more than 500 poor students. It's hard to imagine that the money spent on subsidizing 500 poor students, but the money he saved by picking up waste is now spent on the children at once, how can he be willing to do it?
In July 2016, Xinxiang was hit by a heavy rainstorm, and after seeing the disaster on TV, he did not hesitate at all, and took out 20,000 yuan to buy a car of relief materials and sent it to Xinxiang, thousands of miles away. When people rushed to the car to thank him as a donor, he sat on the damp and dirty ground, put his hands together and said to the victims, "My compatriots are affected by the disaster, and I have a responsibility to help!"
The victims at the scene were shocked by donors like him!
Two years ago, on November 29, when Hu Lei was 28 years old, he came to Guyuan, Ningxia, to the No. 3 Primary School in Sanying Town, where he was 525
A rural student donated 30,450 yuan of school bags, notebooks, erasers and other Xi school supplies.
However, when he later went to a primary school in Zhongwei, Ningxia, to sponsor poor students, countless people wept.
That day, after he came to the school with some school Xi supplies to give to a poor girl, the elementary school student was grateful and excited to wait for the person who helped her. But when Hu Lei appeared in front of her with ragged clothes and dragged his disabled legs with difficulty, the little girl couldn't believe her eyes.
She thought that the person who funded him was a successful person with bright clothes and extraordinary bearing, but she didn't expect that he was a severely disabled person who was half a head shorter than herself, had dirty hair, and could only walk by mopping the floor. The girl couldn't hide the excitement in her heart, tears burst out of her eyes, she took Hu Lei's hand, and didn't say anything for a long time.
At that moment, the girl and everyone who saw the video were very moved, and people had a new understanding of helping the poor:
The essence of love is not condescending alms, but the communication of the heart and the warmth of the heart, which is "one cloud pushes another cloud, and one soul awakens another soul".
This little girl saw love in Hu Lei, and love could have been so simple and simple. The girl's love was awakened by Hu Lei, who was dedicated to helping the poor: love can be transmitted, she was helped by a strange disabled gentleman today, and she will also help people in need in the future.
What people didn't expect was that Hu Lei had donated more than 1 million yuan in 15 years of public welfare.
The People's Daily commented on him as "a kneeling giant and the most beautiful scavenger". A netizen left a message in his comment area: Mr. bends his knees and walks, which makes me look up to my life!"
We can't change the disaster, the only thing that can change is our love!
I have been through thick and thin, and I always want to give an umbrella to the person who wears the cloak and rain.
Physical disability is not an obstacle to good deeds, and being dressed in rags can be mentally rich!
