November 5, 2024, Panjiawan Town, Jiayu County, Hubei Province. General Secretary Xi Jinping came here to learn about the progress of comprehensive rural revitalization. Autumn is getting stronger, the vegetable corridor is lush and green, and the General Secretary smiles and shakes hands with the villagers. Another photo freezes.

Over the years, how many times have I been to the fields, how many times have I lived in the village, how many times have I held the hands of the folks, and how many thoughtful words have been spoken.

November 3, 2013, Shibadong Village, Hunan. In the dark wooden house, villager Shi Basan did not recognize that it was General Secretary Xi Jinping who came to visit him.

She asked politely: "How do I call you?" "I am the people's servant." The general secretary introduced himself with a smile. During the conversation, the hands of the General Secretary and Shi Basan were always held tightly.

Xi Jinping chatted with his family at the home of Shi Qiwen, a Miao villager in Shibadong Village, Paibi Township, Huayuan County, Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture.

On that day, on the front terrace of the Lizizhai villagers’ yard in Shibadong Village, facing the villagers sitting around him, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed “targeted poverty alleviation” for the first time. After that, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited 14 contiguous areas of extreme poverty across the country.

Peng Shuisheng, the old branch secretary of Shenshan Village in Jiangxi Province, will never forget that the General Secretary visited the village on the eve of the Spring Festival in 2016: “The General Secretary smiled, held my hand with both hands, and later patted the back of my hand. The General Secretary’s hands were very beautiful. Generous and warm.”

Lu Yihe, a poor man at that time, will never forget that on October 23, 2018, at his home in Lianzhang Village, Guangdong, the general secretary held his hand tightly. In Lianzhang Village, the General Secretary said: “If the folks are not lifted out of poverty, I will not be able to let go.” The deployment and implementation of hard-hitting battles are carried out in a practical manner. After that, in 2020, nearly 100 million rural poor people were all lifted out of poverty, and a large country accounting for nearly 1/5 of the world's population was completely lifted out of absolute poverty.

I care about the folks and the citizens. In November 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping visited Shanghai for an inspection. At the Day Care Center for the Elderly at the First Branch of Jiaxing Road Subdistrict, Citizen Station, Hongkou District, several elderly residents aged 79 to 92 were making handicrafts. The General Secretary He greeted them cordially and shook hands with them one by one.

This is Xi Jinping cordially shaking hands with elderly residents at the first branch nursery of Jiaxing Road Street, Citizen Station, Hongkou District.

On the journey from poverty alleviation to rural revitalization, from a moderately prosperous society to a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and on the journey of new life and new struggle, the General Secretary’s hand has always been held together with the people’s. We went deep into villages and communities again and again to see special products, culture and tourism, elderly care, childcare, people's livelihood, emergencies, difficulties and worries, and what work needs to be continued. In February this year, in the previously disaster-stricken Liubu Village in Tianjin, the General Secretary came to the home of Du Honggang, a villager with four generations living under the same roof. He held the hands of the elderly family members and calculated the disaster losses and post-disaster production development, employment and income one by one. .

When Xi Jinping inspected Liubu Village, Xinkou Town, Xiqing District, he had a cordial chat with villager Du Honggang and his family.

The feelings of the people are not only reflected in handshakes. Here is another story.

In 2009, Comrade Xi Jinping, who has served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Vice President of the State, returned to Yan'an, Shaanxi Province for investigation and inspection. As soon as he saw Shi Chunyang, a villager in Liangjiahe Village, Comrade Xi Jinping directly called out his nickname: "Suiwa, you are here!"

During the discussion, Shi Chunyang read the beginning of the script he prepared: "Dear Vice President Xi Jinping Chairman..." Xi Jinping immediately interrupted him: "Suiwa, why do you call me that?" Shi Chunyang put down the manuscript and started talking...

We are close in heart and love because we are always rooted in the people.
