Like a warm promise, it arrives as scheduled every year.

On January 18, as the Guimao Spring Festival was approaching, General Secretary Xi Jinping used a video connection in the capital Beijing to visit and condolences to grassroots cadres and masses in six localities across the country.

　　Ask hospitalized elderly patients how their health is, ask whether the employees of energy supply companies can take turns, ask how merchants in the agricultural product wholesale market are doing business... a warm and caring sentence, asking the "small things" of the people, but it condenses the "big country". ", closely linking the hearts of the leaders and the people.

　　People's hearts are the biggest politics, and people's livelihood is no small matter.

The small things of hundreds of millions of people are the big things of the Communists. This is the historical echo of a century of suffering and glory, and it is also the consistent dialectics of the century-old party.

　　"In the late 1960s, I was a farmer in a small village on the Loess Plateau of China. I personally experienced the difficulties of the people in farming and food and clothing. Their desire for a better life was deeply imprinted in my mind." In 2022 At the high-level dialogue on global development in June 2009, General Secretary Xi Jinping once again talked about his experience in Liangjiahe.

　　The years are rushing, from the yellow land, from the secretary of the party branch of the rural production brigade to the general secretary of the party, Comrade Xi Jinping has a deep understanding of the hearts of the people and is dedicated to the people.

　　There is no small matter in serving the people.

In the spring of 2021, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited the home of Wang Deli, a villager in Maozhushan Village, Caiwan Town, Guilin, Guangxi, and had a meaningful conversation.

　　"General Secretary, you are usually so busy and still come to see us, thank you very much."

　　"I am busy with these things, and the 'biggest country' is the happy life of the people."

　　"The country is the people, and the people are the country." The people are the most important thing in the general secretary's heart; "No matter how small the things that benefit the people must be done."

　　When I went out to investigate, I went to the community to see "what kind of food everyone eats", went to the village to ask "is there any guarantee for seeing a doctor", and specifically asked "Wuhan people like to eat live fish when conditions permit" when investigating the epidemic prevention and control work in Hubei. Under the circumstances, more supplies should be organized"...No matter where he goes, General Secretary Xi Jinping always carefully asks about the people's affairs when he inspects and investigates, and the details run through the vivid practice of governing the country.

　　"Communists must keep in mind that benefiting the people is the greatest political achievement." How to benefit the people?

"We must insist on treating the small things of the people as our own big things" is the way to plan things, and "to the broad and subtle" is the way to get things done.

　　This year's National Two Sessions, from the opening to March 8, General Secretary Xi Jinping participated in group deliberations and discussions three times.

From 2013 to 2022, during the 10-year National Two Sessions, General Secretary Xi Jinping participated in group deliberations and discussions 53 times. Things around the common people were repeatedly mentioned and questioned by the General Secretary.

　　The Guangdong delegation asked "What is the current PM2.5 in the Pearl River Delta", the Hunan delegation was concerned about "how many people married their wives last year" in Shibadong Village, the Sichuan delegation was concerned about the children of "Yaiya Village", and in Qinghai The delegation was concerned about the growth of crops, the production of bricks and tiles, and the price of beef and mutton... During the question-and-answer period, what was tested was the implementation of major policies, and what was brewing was a major development plan related to the future, reflecting the comprehensive advancement of the Chinese nation with Chinese-style modernization Great picture of a great revival.

　　Only by understanding how big and important the "little things" of people's livelihood are in General Secretary Xi Jinping's mind can we deeply understand why the "little troubles" that plague the people, such as the prevention and treatment of "small glasses", food safety, clean heating, rural toilet improvement, and garbage sorting, can be solved. It is placed on the desk of the general secretary and kept in the heart of the general secretary. It has also been included in the agenda of important meetings of the central government and integrated into the top-level design of national development. It has become the focus and focus of reform time and time again.

　　According to polls conducted by the Harvard Kennedy School in China for 10 consecutive years, Chinese people's satisfaction with the government has remained above 90% year after year.

Why?

The answer lies in the integration of major government affairs and small affairs of the masses, the resonance of national policies and public opinion, and the connection between the hearts of the party and the people.

　　"Do you like your job? Is your job tiring?" In 2019, students in the Chinese class at North Niles High School in Illinois, USA, asked curiously in a letter to General Secretary Xi Jinping.

"My job is to serve the people. I am very tired, but very happy." The general secretary replied in his letter.

　　"The greatest happiness in the world is to strive for the happiness of the people." This is the source of strength for a century-old party to overcome obstacles and the persistent pursuit of generations of Communists.

　　At present, the strategic deployment in the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China is turning into the "rain" of policies in various places, nourishing the "branches and leaves" of people's livelihood, and integrating the people's sense of gain, happiness, and security.

　　Facing the new journey, how bright the people's smiles are determines how happy the party members and cadres are in their struggle.

"As long as there is still a family or even a person who has not solved the basic living problems, we cannot be content with it; as long as the people's vision for a happy life has not become a reality, we must unswervingly unite and lead the people to fight together." General Secretary Xi Jinping His words were powerful.

　　During the two sessions of the country in 2016, General Secretary Xi Jinping came to the Qinghai delegation, and a "long" dialogue was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

　　During the 20 minutes, the general secretary interjected and asked about "small things" around the people. Bi Shengzhong, party secretary of Dashijia Village in Guide County, answered more briskly and happier as he talked.

　　The words that have been lingering in my head for a long time in lifelong loyalty blurted out:

　　"What do the common people in our place think of you...? They love you so much!"
