His lunch outside every day is always two steamed buns, a bowl of boiled water, and sometimes a little soy sauce is poured into boiled water, which is already his "delicious".
At home, he is very frugal. He only eats a piece of meat or an egg at most every meal. It's no use persuading him to eat again. He always said, "Save it for the next meal. Eating too much will make you blind. " Indulge yourself occasionally is gluttony. When you sleep at night, put a piece of meat in your mouth and taste it slowly.
He almost died in order to make an extra trip and earn an extra dollar. 365 days a year, regardless of holidays, wind, rain and snow, he never takes a day off. Start at 6 o'clock in the morning and come back at 7 or 8 o'clock in the evening.
He once fainted from a tricycle when the road temperature was as high as 50 degrees Celsius in summer. He once fell into a ditch on the road covered with heavy snow in winter; He once fell asleep in the car because of fatigue; When he had a cold and a high fever of 39 degrees Celsius, he swallowed antipyretic tablets many times while pedaling, and his cotton-padded jacket was soaked with collapsed sweat. What is even less well known is that due to old age, I often can't hold my urine in winter, and my cotton trousers are always wet. I put on a few pieces of cloth and push my car around.
Imagine such a scene in my mind: a thin old man riding a tricycle, wearing irregular clothes and a straw hat, walking towards the university in the amazing eyes of teachers and students, taking out a thick dime from him and handing it to the school leaders, saying that he would donate money to poor students. Every year, this university receives donations from all sides, mostly large enterprises. Now, I have received a donation from an individual and an old man who rode three wheels. Everyone's expression ranges from amazement to excitement and even pain.
And this scene the old man insisted on for more than ten years, without interruption. ..........
"It doesn't matter if you are tired again, so that every child can have money to go to school and have books to read." This is the motivation of the elderly 20 years ago, and it is also the pursuit and dream of the elderly 20 years ago. "Multiple lacunar cerebral infarction, essential hypertension, coronary heart disease, valve degeneration, senile cataract, nervous deafness, brain atrophy, gastrointestinal bleeding." This is the final diagnosis when the old man is sick.
"When I get well, I will pedal three rounds to earn money to help you study." This is what the old man said to the children who went to visit him in the ward.
"Tricycle, radio, little oriole" is the last legacy left by the old man when he died this year.
If you have not been moved by these simple words, please remember that the old man was 93 years old when he died. From the twilight of 74 to the age of 90, he never lived at home like other old people, but pulled three rounds harder than a mature man in the street. All this is just to make those children, children he doesn't know, have money to go to school and have a comfortable class in the classroom.
It is not difficult for a person to do good deeds. It is rare for him to persist for 20 years in his prime. Many people come to help students with caring education, which is common in newspapers and screens. Except those who have gained a reputation for charity in the name of donation, many people sincerely donate to remote children, and even thousands of donations are as rich as Bill.
However, one person has a donation of 100 yuan 10 yuan, one person has a donation of/kloc-0 yuan from 2 yuan, and one person is a beggar with no money and gives it to another beggar 1 point. Of the three people, who is more touching?
White old man is undoubtedly a third party. So sincere and pure.
Beside the old man, the contrast is a group of officials who are indifferent to eating and drinking, and the rich who just want to have fun and stay out of the world. This is the best embodiment of responsibility and conscience.
Kindhearted people, please don't spare your tears, let us bend down under the humble figure of the old man. Old people are ordinary, even pitiful. Before the media found him, no one knew his story, and no one knew how he felt about donating money to education alone. What kind of heart is this, what kind of silence is brilliant.
But this year, the old man was not selected for the role of Touching China. When Bai's emotional tone and touching music made ten characters show their contributions on the glamorous and luxurious national award stage and moved every audience to tears, people's conscience silently forgot the old man who had already left us.
I still remember that this is not the first time I have lost the election. Last year, China's nomination also included the name of the old man. However, this year has continued last year's losses.
I wonder what kind of old man this is in everyone's eyes. At least in Guinness, where he devoted himself, thousands of people were moved by his departure.
Over the years, Bai has donated educational funds to 30 universities, middle schools and primary schools. The old man never gives money in return. Many students who got his help didn't know his name. His happiness and happiness come from his heart of the sun!
However, such a great and respectable old man was nominated by CCTV twice and was moved by the nomination of China, but for some reason he was unsuccessful, which made people feel that CCTV was really moving China or putting on a show! As for those tickets, how useful are they in practice?
An old man, a tricycle, 350 thousand yuan donation, more than 300 poor students ... When people connect the phrases one by one, they show the ups and downs, misunderstanding, persistence and love of the old man's life. He is white.
If you charge 50 cents for each 1 km tricycle, what he has contributed to the poor students is equivalent to running around the equator 18 weeks. However, it was not until he was nearly 90 years old that he finally felt helpless on that day. 1999, Tianjin Railway Station was reorganized and all pavilions were demolished. Looking at the "white teaching company" that was chopped into a pile of LJ in the blink of an eye, the old man cried. He is old and his legs and feet are boring. What can he expect to use to earn money for his children to study in the future?
That winter, the old man curled up in a bicycle shed near the station and showed his bike to people for three months. He puts his earned 1 jiao, 2 jiao, 1 yuan and 2 yuan's money neatly in a lunch box every day. When 500 yuan was full, he put it on the lunch box and got on the bus. On a snowy winter day, he came to Tianjin Hua Yao Middle School. People saw that his hair and beard turned white and his body was soaked by snow. He handed the 500 yuan money in the lunch box to the school teacher and said, "I can't do this anymore, and I may not be able to donate any more in the future. This is my last sum of money ... "The teachers all cried.
Bai, why did you move to China? Do you have graceful dancing and graceful curves? Do you have the ability to stand on the stage that attracts thousands of eyes and let countless boys and girls have romantic and hazy reverie about you?
Bai, why did you move to China? Have you ever been in a spaceship? Have you enjoyed the boundless sea of flowers and thunderous applause after getting off the spaceship? You're just a tricycle driver who didn't go to primary school. How can you compare with our space hero?
Bai, why did you move to China? Are you the director of a large state-owned hospital? Are you a high-profile asset in the medical field, and can you become an instant hit like a saint? Your only wealth is more than 200,000, and you have given it to thousands of poor students.
"Draw a pair of eyes for the world with the purity of the first ray of light." C C T V moved China's beautiful lyrics, which made people look forward to and associate with it. But in the eyes of CCTV judges or some backstage leaders, only great astronauts and gorgeous dancers can or deserve to move China. The word moved has nothing to do with the words tricycle driver, people at the bottom of society and poor people. In today's China society, the spirit of "showing greatness in the ordinary" has been lost.
When our senior social leaders are used to using the word "great" to measure what is moving, when our Spring Festival party has started to serve only the upper class, and when the answer from asking kindergarten children what career you want to choose in the future is star boss, the mainstream spirit of this society has been replaced by quick success and extravagance.
Bai let us see a ray of hope in this society from this materialistic era, and CCTV's "Touching China" chose and ruthlessly extinguished this ray of hope. No, what CCTV released is not the gain and loss of white personal honor. Old people who are already far away in heaven will no longer care about these secular fame. What CCTV has released is the hope of a nation's future! When selfless peace is gone, where will our tomorrow go?
The selection has passed and the result cannot be changed. Remember 1999 Southern Weekend's New Year's dedication with two paragraphs:
"The sunshine hits your face, and the warmth stays in our hearts. Why do we always have tears in our eyes, because we love each other deeply; Why are we always full of energy, because we love deeply; Why are we always looking for it? Because we love it deeply. Love this country and its people. They are kind, they are honest and they know how to care about each other. "
"There is always a force that makes us burst into tears, a force that makes us full of vitality, and a force that drives us to constantly seek' justice, love and conscience'. This power comes from you, from each of you. "
There is always a force that makes us burst into tears, and there is always a force that makes us full of energy! Isn't this the strength of the old man's 20-year teaching career?
Looking through the past records, southern window selected Bai as the person of the year; In many forums, you can also see the memory of netizens; After the old man died, ten thousand people attended the memorial service in Tianjin. On the BBS of Nankai University, many people are complaining about the old people ... It may be enough for so many people to remember the old people. What does "touching China" mean? As the central media, I only feel that her authority is declining. The whole increasingly vulgar media circle is just fooling the public. What else can I say?
I only hope that in this forgetful society, Bai's story will not be easily forgotten, and it will be remembered by us forever, just like those who go down in history. There is such a kind old man in a corner of our country.
For the old man himself, he never thought that someone would return and pay attention to his efforts. Honor, for him, is just a name, no doubt. Although, perhaps including himself, he will be frustrated that this childish kindness is not recognized. )
The people of Sri Lanka are gone, and they only want peace! All the arguments entangled in this become meaningless.
In my heart, the old man should be one of the top ten people who touched China, because the old man deeply touched me and many people around me.
Tan Qianqiu, dust, migrant workers. ...
