Let’s talk about him again

One morning just after 5 o'clock, when I got up and took a shower, I looked out the window and saw a figure moving in the swimming pool. I picked up my phone and took a photo of that figure. Come down. After washing up, I picked up my phone and zoomed in. It turned out to be Lao Xia. He was holding a homemade net bag to retrieve plastic bags, leaves and other debris floating on the water in the leisure pool.

Lao Xia, the security guard in Ximenggang, is both a property employee and a community owner. Perhaps because of his dual identity and his particularly enthusiastic and serious work performance, he has become the most popular among property owners. My favorite property employee is also the most popular owner in the community.

Lao Xia’s working hours are from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. and from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. He mainly monitors the entry and exit of people coming and going in Binjiang Park. After opening the door in the morning, the owner of the community knows very well who is going to work, who is going to buy groceries, and who is going for morning exercise.

As soon as Lao Xia put on his security uniform at work, he started to be busy. While boiling water, he inspected the surrounding environment. Even if he saw melon seeds, peels and other garbage outside the community that would hinder the activities of the owners, he would always clean it up with a broom and dustpan. Before getting off work, I would go around and see if there are any items that were forgotten when the children were playing or when the adults were doing morning exercises. He has picked up countless children's toy cars, clothes and bags left behind by morning exercise owners and square dancing mothers, ID cards and bank cards, and the car keys of the owner's BMW. His thoughtful behavior also affected the owners who came in and out of the community. When everyone found something missing, they would pick it up and give it to him. Ximenggang has become the lost and found office of the community. No one came to claim the umbrella he picked up, so he simply made a shelf and placed it neatly outside the door. Anyone who needed it could get it.

? Lao Xia is an enthusiastic and attentive person. When he saw that the old man pushing a stroller and the child riding a bicycle had some inconvenience when entering and exiting the iron gate, he looked for wooden strips and carpets and did it himself. The footboards on the thresholds were made. What everyone sees now is the second piece he made. He also purchased a pump at his own expense and placed it on the gate post for everyone to use.

? He also took care of the square dancing aunt’s lighting wiring replacement and the charging and storage of the speakers, so he was especially loved by the grandmothers.

? Lao Xia is still a man who knows all kinds of martial arts. He brought his own blood pressure monitor and often measured the blood pressure of those who needed it. He brought his own blood glucose meter to measure blood sugar for those who needed it. His strongest point is the repair of small household appliances. He has repaired many of the owner's rice cookers, water heaters, desk lamps, and electric fans. He never charges for replacement of major original components. Sometimes a small accessory is needed for repairs. Although the price is not high, he still has to go out to buy it. Now even the mahjong table in the senior citizen activity room is handed over to him for maintenance.

? Lao Xia is the third security guard at Ximen Post in the community. Few people stayed at his previous guard post. Since he arrived, this post has become more and more lively day by day. Of course, there are also many enthusiastic owners who care and support, especially the strong support of the veteran cadre Director Xuan, which has made today's environmental conditions possible. But it was Lao Xia's spirit of working hard and enthusiastically serving the owners that attracted many owners, old and young, to come together.

For the owners who often go in and out of the Binjiang Park in the community, the cup of barley tea is what impresses them the most.

? Speaking of the founder of this cup of barley tea, it is Lao Xia Xia Jianming. When he came to this post, he saw a lot of people coming in and out of the community from morning to night. Children sweating while playing, owners doing morning exercises, and aunts doing square dancing would all come to Lao Xia to beg for water. So Lao Xia bought some barley tea from the market and brewed it specially for everyone to drink. But there are many people drinking tea, but few people bring their own cups. Lao Xia not only went to buy it himself, but also went around begging for help. It barely lasted a year.

In the second year, more people cared about barley tea, and more people donated money to support it. At that time, I was worried that it would be difficult to deal with too many donations, so the donation was limited to no more than 5 yuan per person, and Ended early.

Unexpectedly, barley tea was warmly welcomed by everyone as soon as it was supplied. Lao Xia was in a hurry and the supply exceeded demand. There were not enough kettles and water bottles. So we, a group of old men, chipped in 100 and 200 and pooled some money together. Together with the donations from 17 previous owners, we carried out a comprehensive transformation to ensure the supply of barley tea and purchased kettles, tea buckets and more than 10,000 tea cups. and 10 pounds of barley tea, thereby confirming the supply.

? Wang Daoqun, an 84-year-old veteran cadre who just passed the Spring Festival this year, was the first to jump out and say that I will be responsible for all the barley tea this year, followed by the two aunts Zhou Xinsu from 139 to 808 and Lian Jian from 132 to 304. It was proposed that they contract all the cups needed for the whole year. In this way, a few people monopolized the supply of raw materials needed for barley tea throughout the year. Although this summer is extremely hot, the supply of barley tea is unprecedented. Even the fitness owners in nearby communities came to ask for a cup of tea after hearing the news. Only Lao Xia, who works hard for everyone every day, is still so calm and unknown.

? What about next year? I am even more confident about my prospects and assumptions for next year. This cup of barley tea in Ximenggang community will continue to be served not only in summer and winter, but also in spring and autumn. Because many young and middle-aged property owners have asked to sponsor this public welfare activity that is beneficial to community property owners. As the saying goes: When everyone adds fuel, the flames will rise.

An old Xia led a group of old men and old ladies, and this group of old men and old ladies inspired young and middle-aged owners to join one after another. Isn’t it that a civilized and harmonious atmosphere in a community can only be created by starting from small things like barley tea, accumulating bit by bit, continuing day by day, and carrying forward year by year?

? Golden Harbor’s tomorrow will definitely be better.

Conclusion:

? In fact, I have written twice about Lao Xia’s ordinary and heartwarming deeds. Even Lao Xia directly asked me not to write about him again. But the owners of the community are being harassed every year. I want to write more about Lao Xia. Lao Xia worked so diligently at his ordinary job every year, but he still couldn't finish his story every year. I have also been thinking about how Lao Xia is not as good as me in terms of cultural experience, but why Lao Xia is always so respected in my heart, because I am just a farm cow in front of him, and he is a real Ruzi cow.
