China News Service, Xiamen, March 8 (Li Siyuan, Zhu Xiaoyan, Huang Jingyi) "My goddess, happy holidays! The rice is cooked and the soup is ready, remember to eat it while it is hot when you go home at night." Tang Jie looked at her husband Ge Zhimin. The WeChat news that came, her eyes couldn't help but moist, but the same busy she could only reply in a hurry, "hold your hand, stick to your son", and then went to Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport's epidemic prevention work.

  Recently, Tang Jie Jiaguang, the fourth-level senior police chief of the Xiamen Tongyi Entry-Exit Border Checkpoint, was awarded the "Top Ten Police Families" by the first national immigration management agency, becoming the only family in Fujian Province's immigration management agency to receive this honor.

As a family with dual police officers in the immigration management system, Tang Jie and his wife have been rooted in the grassroots for more than 20 years, fulfilling their duties and dedicating silently in ordinary positions.

  Over 7,300 days and nights, Tang Jie inspected more than 400,000 inbound and outbound passengers, maintaining "zero errors, zero accidents, and zero complaints" all year round.

Since joining the police, Tang Jierong has made personal second-class merit once and third-class merit three times, and was named an outstanding Communist Party member by the Exit-Entry Administration of the former Ministry of Public Security.

The first team of Tongyi Border Checkpoint where she is on duty has won the honors of "National Patriotic Model Collective of Public Security Organs", "National Top Ten Women Civilization Post", "National Youth Civilization Number" and other honors.

  "You don't need to say, I understand." This is what Tang Jie and Ge Zhimin often say to each other.

  From knowing each other to falling in love, their wrinkled little red book has been treasured for 22 years.

After forming a "double police family", Tang Jie and his wife unexpectedly spent the most time together after they fell in love and before they got married.

For most of the years after marriage, the couple stayed at both ends of the city’s sea, air, and sea ports, with different service modes, work schedules, and heavy duty tasks. They often stayed together.

  It was originally planned to return to Zhejiang's hometown to visit relatives after the Spring Festival in 2020, but the sudden outbreak of the epidemic caused Tang Jie's family to give up returning to their hometown.

On the one hand, Tang Jie took the initiative to strengthen the knowledge of epidemic prevention, while doing a good job in customs clearance services to make returning Taiwanese compatriots feel safe and warm.

Soon after, the "Xiamen-Jinbin route" was suspended, and the Gaoqi International Airport where Ge Zhimin worked became the main battlefield for the "external defense" of the epidemic.

  In order to fully prevent and control the epidemic, the Party Committee of Xiamen General Border Inspection Station decided to deploy some police from Tongyi Border Checkpoint to support Gaoqi Border Checkpoint.

Considering that Ge Zhimin was already on the front line of the airport's fight against the epidemic, Tang Jie was told that he could not participate in support and set aside time to take care of the family. However, Tang Jie still asked to "fight against the epidemic" with her husband.

In this way, they, who have not worked under one roof for more than ten years after their marriage, have achieved a "reunion" on the front line of the fight against the epidemic. They still cannot meet just because they went to work at the wrong time.

  "This time I supported Gaoqi, I finally realized his hardships and efforts on the front line of the fight against the epidemic, and silently praised him." During the days of support at Gaoqi Airport, Tang Jie wore a full set of protective clothing for several hours a day. People have trouble breathing, but she has no hesitation.

  As the team leader, Ge Zhimin often ran between the inspection site, the apron, the supervision platform and the customs flow adjustment area. He went back and forth tens of thousands of steps every day, from the scorching heat to the severe winter, from sweating to the wind and cold, airtight protective clothing. Just like his battle suit.

Regarding his wife's support, Ge Zhimin jokingly told reporters, "They are father and son soldiers, and we are couples who fight the epidemic."

  Family is the harbor of life journey.

Tang Jie and Ge Zhimin are both loving couples and "pioneers" in the anti-epidemic retrograde side by side.

With the arrival of Women's Day, Tang Jie has a wish in her spare time. She hopes that she and her lover will continue to wear the "Police Blue" as a lifetime "couple costume" in the days to come.
