It was late at night, and tranquility was restored in Ganjia Village, Longtoushan Town, Ludian County, Yunnan Province.
Zhang Yuanding gently pushed open the door of his daughter Zhang Xifei's room. Under the lamp, her daughter was still concentrating on reviewing her homework, and she didn't notice anyone coming in.
"It's almost the middle school entrance examination, baby time is tight."
Zhang Xifei, a third-year student at Longquan Middle School.
Her younger brother, Zhang Xili, is also in the first year of junior high at this middle school.
His wife is farming and taking care of the children, running and transporting by himself, and the two children are doing well in school... Life is full of hope, Zhang Yuanding is full of relief, but he still occasionally thinks of that heartbreaking day——
On August 3, 2014, a 6.5-magnitude earthquake struck Ludian, Yunnan Province. Ganjia Village, located in Longtoushan Town, the epicenter of the epicenter, suffered heavy damage and was completely buried by a landslide.
Homes were destroyed, relatives were killed, and the people in the disaster-stricken areas fell into extreme grief and despair.
The disaster affected Zhongnanhai, and the party and the people were heart-to-heart.
After learning of the earthquake, General Secretary Xi Jinping immediately gave important instructions, requesting that saving people be the first priority, trying to reduce casualties, and properly do a good job of mass resettlement.
The People's Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force are here, the national rescue team is here, the communication, electricity, and road repair personnel are here, and relief supplies are here.
Living well is the best consolation for those who have passed away.
Smoke from cooking began to rise from what was once a ruin, and grief-stricken people wiped away their tears and started rebuilding their homes.
How are people living in the disaster area?
How is the restoration and reconstruction going?
What other requirements and expectations do the people in the disaster area have?
General Secretary Xi Jinping, who is far away in Beijing, has always had an uneasy concern in his heart.
On January 19, 2015, the day before the big cold solar term, General Secretary Xi Jinping set off early in the morning.
After a long flight, he arrived at Zhaotong.
"The weather was cold and the road conditions were very poor. We were moved by the bumpy road from Zhaotong." Li Shanyun, then secretary of the Longtoushan Town Party Committee, clearly remembered that the general secretary came to the site where the original town government was located and heard about the casualties of the earthquake. , his face suddenly became solemn.
Clothes, food, shelter, and ordinary things, and the heart of the public servants of the common people.
In the prefabricated school, in the face of the cadres and the masses surrounding him, General Secretary Xi Jinping said with concern: "After the earthquake, I have been thinking about you all the time: have you been resettled? Can you have a hot meal? Have the children gone to school? Can’t be treated? Now I am particularly concerned about your wintering and post-disaster reconstruction, can you move into a new house as soon as possible?”
A single word of concern is an inexhaustible warmth; the questioning one by one expresses the general secretary's concern for the people in the disaster area.
At that time, more than 100 tents in the transitional resettlement site of Ganjiazhai housed more than 200 people from 89 households, and Zhang Yuanding's family lived here.
"Hello, Grandpa Xi!" Xiao Xifei shouted excitedly when the general secretary came in.
The certificate of award hanging in the tent is particularly conspicuous, recording her efforts.
"Doll has seen the general secretary on TV before, but I didn't expect to see it in her tent this time." Zhang Yuanding said, "I heard that Doll is studying well, and the general secretary encouraged her to cheer."
Recalling the scene of that day, Zhang Yuanding still had a fresh memory, with tears in his eyes.
"Is it okay to live here now?" the general secretary asked with concern.
"Okay, the government has taken good care of it and the subsidies have been distributed."
"Is it warm to live in this cotton tent?"
"warm."
A "warm", endless thanks.
On the same day, General Secretary Xi Jinping walked into five tents successively to learn more about the people's living security situation, and he asked the people for help, which touched the hearts of the affected people.
When parting, the sun shines in the yard, which is extraordinarily warm.
The people at the resettlement site gathered around. General Secretary Xi Jinping shook hands with everyone one by one and said that the CPC Central Committee always cares about everyone, and wishes everyone to overcome difficulties and live a better life.
A good word is three winters warm.
The grief of losing relatives is still there, but the blessing of the general secretary has given the affected people unlimited confidence and yearning for a better life.
They are determined to use their hard-working hands to build a better new home.
The vicissitudes of life have changed the world.
With the help of the party and the government, Ganjiazhai, which disappeared in the earthquake, was reborn in the Luomakou community. Every household moved into new buildings. Small peppercorns became a big industry to get rich.
For the future, Zhang Yuanding and his wife are full of longings: "Make good money, work hard to raise the two dolls, and hope that they will study hard and be useful to society."
