She adhered to her original intention, took root in the countryside, found countermeasures for the masses, sought a way out, and used youth and sweat to write a beautiful life at the grassroots level.
From May 2019 to May 2020, during her stay in the village, she participated in the formation of the "Zhengqi Bank" in Wangchangsi Village and the "Hongmei" Square Dance Team of more than 60 people; Purchase haircut tools at your own expense, open a "love hair house" in the village committee, and carry haircut tools with you when entering the household to help the elderly with limited mobility to cut hair; Establishment of "Left-behind Children's Homes" to use weekends and breaks to help left-behind children with their homework...
Her efforts have been recognized by everyone, and she has won the 2019 provincial poverty alleviation and support advanced individuals. She is Wang Hongmei, a cadre of the Vegetable Development Office of Heshui County and a former village support cadre of Wangchangsi Village in Gucheng Town.
Build a home for "left-behind children" with true love
"Murakami's life is too hard, so don't go." "Murakami is not familiar with work, and it will be difficult to adapt for a while and a half." In May 2019, in the face of the persuasion of relatives and friends, Wang Hongmei did not hesitate and agreed to go to the village.
"I am a native of the countryside and have a special affection for the countryside, and as long as the units and the masses need it, I will play my role." Wang Hongmei said.
Although Wang Hongmei had not been to Wang Changsi Village before, and there was not a single acquaintance here, she did not have much of a gap in her psychology, and as soon as she arrived in the village, she entered a working state. "The affairs of the masses are more important than anything else, and there is no time for the process of adapting to themselves." Wang Hongmei said.
Since I have come to help the poor, I must know the situation of the 202 poor households in the village. When all was said and done, she asked Wang Dayong, the first secretary of the village, to draw a simple map of Wangchangsi Village, and marked the approximate location of each poor household. She took a simple map and went door to door to identify the road, and in less than a month, Wang Hongmei visited all the poor households.
"Yang Lizhou's daughter-in-law died of illness, leaving behind two granddaughters, one 14 years old and the other 7 years old." Wang Hongmei heard the villagers' conversation in the village committee square and was shocked, because when she entered the house, she was deeply impressed by this family. Thinking of the two poor children, Wang Hongmei was very unbearable in her heart. So, she went to the door to discuss with Yang Lizhou, and after school, she took the two children to the rest room of the village committee to help them with their homework. "I am also a mother, and I want to give them some warmth, so that the children can come out of the pain and helplessness of losing their mothers as soon as possible, study hard, and change their fate in the future."
Wang Hongmei has also been paying attention to the two boys in the villagers' families near the village committee, because their mother is mentally ill and their father is still deaf and mute, so Wang Hongmei called the two boys together, and the "left-behind children's home" has "taken shape" since this time.
With the passage of time, Wang Hongmei's tutoring of the children was recognized by the villagers, and many people came to Wang Hongmei to let their children learn together, and even some people sent them directly to Wang Hongmei after receiving the children after school, and came to pick them up after doing their homework. There are more and more children, the rest room of the village committee has been unable to sit down, the village has specially vacated a house for Wang Hongmei, used to help children with homework, and specially purchased desks and stereos, usually after doing homework, children do games together, singing, dancing, reciting poetry and so on.
"After-school activities are designed to cultivate children's self-confidence and make them feel that although their parents are not around, they are not lacking in love." Wang Hongmei said. The team members also gave the "left-behind children's home" back a lot of sponsorship, donated books, sports equipment and stationery for this "small family", when the children's performance improved, Wang Hongmei rewarded the sponsored items to the children, everyone chased after me, and the enthusiasm for learning was also much higher.
"Studying alone is not enough, but we must also develop in an all-round way." Parents are not around, some children will have inferiority complex, some children at first dare not speak loudly in front of people, after Wang Hongmei's continuous encouragement, and finally can hold the microphone to recite poetry in front of all students, which makes Wang Hongmei very pleased.
In her spare time, Wang Hongmei and the children cook and eat together, teaching them to wash and cook. The children also often brought food to Wang Hongmei from home, an apple, two walnuts... "Love is mutual, the children make me very moved, from another point of view, they are also accompanying me." ”
Pass on the new wind tree civilization with sincerity
In the previous Wangchangsi Village, the villagers would gather near the village committee to play chess and play family in their spare time, the village was quiet, but it was also very dull, and Wang Dayong planned to invite professional teachers from the county seat to teach the villagers to dance square dance. The cultural life of Murakami is active, but square dancing cannot be learned in a day or two.
Wang Hongmei, who had occasionally danced square dances with others before, volunteered to teach the villagers to dance, and in order to better complete this task, she learned on Douyin and Jelly Beans every day.
"At first, no one was embarrassed to jump in front of so many people." In order to drive everyone's enthusiasm, Wang Hongmei played music and danced alone in the square. Some women who used to work outside the home will be more open-minded and first join the square dance team. With everyone's efforts, more people slowly joined the team. "Square dancing can enhance the spirit of the villagers, and older people have certain benefits to the body through square dance activities."
With more and more people dancing square dance, Wang Hongmei set up the "Hongmei" square dance team. At the beginning, it was difficult to teach dance, because many people had no foundation, the movements were stiff, and the drums and rhythm were not well grasped, and Wang Hongmei patiently corrected it little by little and taught it slowly. There is a big mother in her sixties in the village, who can't hear her ears, and with the encouragement of Wang Hongmei, she also joined the team and followed everyone to compete, which is also a very happy thing.
When square dancing arose in the village, the village suddenly became active, often dancing together, and everyone had a harmonious relationship, there were things to give advice together, and the relationship between neighbors was also harmonious.
Wang Changsi village is far from the town, the villagers to take care of the family, take care of the children, there is no time to go to the county or town to catch a haircut, Wang Hongmei found that many people have long hair, it seems not to be spirited, so she paid for her own haircut tools, carry it with her when entering the household, to provide convenience for those who need it. "My husband is flat-headed, and at home I give haircuts, so I can get a simple flathead." At first, the villagers were embarrassed, and the first person to support my work was Yang Zhishu in the village, and slowly the villagers began to come to me for haircuts. ”
More and more people are getting haircuts, Wang Hongmei set up a "love hair house" in the village committee, "usually can come, come to the village's 'love hair house' haircut, legs and feet are inconvenient, we will come to the door service." ”
Be a caring person for the villagers with true feelings
Once in the house, a young man named Wang Feng attracted the attention of Wang Hongmei, in his twenties, but lying on the kang all day, his whole body was festering, the skin on his body fell layer by layer, and his physical condition looked very bad, Wang Hongmei asked his mother and learned that Wang Feng had suffered from silver ringworm when he was working in Beijing before, and the ten-year-long road to medical treatment did not make Wang Feng recover, and he also spent all the family's savings.
After returning, Wang Hongmei did not sleep all night, because she also had children, she could feel the pain of a mother, and she did not want a young life to suffer. Early the next morning, Wang Hongmei went to Wang Feng's house again in a hurry, and after collecting relevant information and diagnostic certificates, Wang Hongmei launched a water drop chip for Wang Feng, and in just two days, he raised more than 15,000 yuan, which made Wang Feng and his family rekindle hope. Later, Wang Feng came to Xifeng with charity money and 20,000 yuan raised by his family to see a doctor, and under the conditioning of traditional Chinese medicine, his condition improved, but he was not cured.
Wang Hongmei saw on the Internet that there is a hospital in Xi'an that can treat Wang Feng's disease, and after communicating with experts on the Internet, she learned that the hospital was treated by injecting biological needles, and many people recovered through treatment, and she immediately told Wang Feng the news and let Wang Feng go to Xi'an.
After several months of treatment, Wang Feng looks like a normal person, and has now gone to work in the field, but he needs consolidated treatment, and the biological injections will continue to be played. "I'm very happy about it, and there's nothing happier for me." Wang Hongmei's eyes were full of joy.
The experience of staying in the village has made Wang Hongmei have a deeper understanding of the grass-roots masses, but also let her change a lot, has returned to the original unit to work Wang Hongmei often took time to go to the nursing home, welfare home, community and other places to do public welfare, but also specially bought haircut tools, for the needy at any time to provide services.
"The affairs of the masses are my business!" This is a sentence that Wang Hongmei often says, and it is also the driving force for her to insist on working in the village. She is not afraid of hardship and tiredness on the battlefield of poverty alleviation, bravely faces difficulties, enthusiastically helps villagers, and has made extraordinary achievements in ordinary posts and has been recognized by society. In April 2020, she was awarded the honorary title of "2019 Provincial Advanced Individual in Poverty Alleviation and Support" by the Gansu Provincial Poverty Alleviation Leading Group.
Today, Wang Hongmei's work in the village has ended, but as soon as she has time, she goes to Wangchangsi Village to dance with the sisters of the dance team, bring gifts to the poor households she helps, make dumplings and make cold skins together. "There are only two elderly people in the family I help, with inconvenient legs and feet, so I often come to see and do what I can, which is to do my best."
