community cadres to persuade the elderly not to donate for the time being. Yong Feng Xiao Chuan
yesterday afternoon, the Yancheng City charitable Association Office appeared a familiar figure, he is a good "idiot" 84 year old Zhang Zhongquan. This time, the old man, with his trembling hands, handed 5 Certificate of deposit and a receipt to the chief staff, totaling 97 thousand and 500 yuan. He said he wanted to donate the money again. But after understanding the relevant situation of the elderly, the staff refused the donation, and the old man was considered, and accepted the kindness of the other side, decided to stay in his late years, and then "naked".
10 million money, is the old man's all savings
say this newspaper once reported the old man, many people must still remember, is the life of thrift, to his stingy near harsh old man, but in April last year, a one-time save his own savings and years of junk 100 thousand yuan savings, nothing. Hesitate to donate to charity, which was touched by the media. But the old man's "infatuation" also brought him many criticisms, and his wife and daughter left him. At present, the old man lives in Yangzhou with his own son.
this time, the nearly 100 thousand yuan savings that Zhang Zhongquan had to donate again was all his savings, part of which was 80 thousand and 500 yuan that he kept in Yancheng and the neighborhood committee of the former residence in October. The old man will leave his life and give up his will, and the other 17 thousand yuan will be his wages and rags since his donation last year. Zhang Zhongquan has lived in his son's place since he came to Yangzhou last year, and returned to Yancheng on the 8 th. He said he wanted to spend his old age in Yancheng, and most wanted to go to the Yancheng City Social Welfare Institute. It is because of the comprehensive consideration of the above situation, the Yancheng City charitable association staff Feng Weicai euphemistically persuaded the elderly, the money is put in his side, as the cost of living in the welfare home, and other elderly after a hundred years of the rest of the money to be donated.
for more than a year, the old man still persisted in picking up the broken
the old man wore a black sunshade, a white Dacron shirt, and a few obvious stains on his shirt, his lower body in black trousers, and a pair of black leather shoes on his feet, of which the right shoe had been slightly cracked. . He leaned on a stick, though he didn't need support, but the whole person looked much less spiritual than last year. He also carried a small line of plum cart with a large handbag with a pile of clothes and two green tea bottles, one of which was filled with water.
"I only eat two yuan a day, and never exceed that standard." Zhang Zhongquan told reporters that he had been used to all these years, but since last year, his health has gone from bad to worse, and he has fallen a lot in Yangzhou. He smoothed up his left leg trouser, and the reporter saw a deep wound on it, which had festering. When asked why he did not see a doctor, he said, "if I buy a plaster as long as a few dollars, the hospital will be 100 yuan, and I can't afford to waste it." In order to save money, the elderly to buy medicine to run several drugstores, choose to buy cheap, and during this period he also called Yancheng Ya and the residents' committee staff to buy medicine, because he found a kind of medicine in Yancheng is cheaper than Yangzhou.
the old man said that in Yangzhou for more than a year, he still kept the habit of picking up, but not much income, "now 20 bottles only sell more than 1 yuan." Plus the body is getting worse and worse, there is no spirit running, some valuable waste is hard to pick up, but he still wants to raise the money around him for 100 thousand yuan. This time I received a notice from the unit and returned to Yancheng, and the old man brought back the collected deposit slip. He wanted to donate money to live in the social welfare institution, and no longer bother Yangzhou's son.
after the hard work of the Charity Federation and the community staff, the old man agreed to donate for the rest of his life. Later, he went to the Yancheng City Social Welfare Institute with the charity Committee and the staff of the neighborhood committee. On the road, he repeatedly said, "maybe I went there one day. What do I do with my money? In the future, all the money will be donated. "
"idiot" good old man Zhang Zhongquan is
born in February 1928 Zhang Zhongquan. It is a Dongtai city person, a party member of the Communist Party of China, a model labor model of the province. In July 1983, it retired from the Yancheng City Construction Corporation (now renamed LITE-ON construction group). Because he made many contributions to society, he set up a will to set up a public welfare fund. His righteousness was cited as "the top ten civilizations of Yancheng" in 1996. Last year, he donated 100 thousand yuan to Yancheng City Charity Association for disaster relief.
Zhang Zhongquan has worked as a tramp for landlords since he was 15 years old. He had been a tramp. He had gone through a tricycle and had done a small business. In September 1959, he entered the work area of the Construction Office of the Yancheng special area to repair the lathe. After taking part in the work, Zhang Zhongquan donated money to the affected areas repeatedly in the name of the unit or "learn Lei Feng" and so on, helping the vulnerable groups in the society. In May 1965, he was commended as "advanced worker" and "five good workers" in Jiangsu province. In May 1982, he was awarded the "model worker of Jiangsu province". After retiring in July 1983, there was still more than a donation. In the past half century, there are only more than 100 postal remittances. Because Zhang Zhongquan donated money to society, most of them came from small businesses or scraps and scraps, so they were praised as "Lei Feng type elderly" by the society.
this persistent "silly" good old man, because of far superior to ordinary people's good deeds, has also suffered unbearable hardship: being criticized, his wife separated from the girl... His neighbours once said that Zhang Zhongquan used to drive and sell things very early every morning, and he could not afford to use the money he earned. And his own breakfast and lunch, are done in the morning in the lunch box on the road to eat, usually green vegetable tofu, such as vegetable, he plans his daily cost of living less than 2 yuan.
after he donated 100 thousand yuan last year, he even refused the certificate issued by the City Charity Federation. He said, "I don't want to donate (the certificate of donation)." I only hope that I can help the people who are affected, just want to leave behind the spirit and educate the younger generation. "
