She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up and opened the door.
Standing outside the door was an old man who was dressed simply but looked energetic. He was holding an old shoulder bag in his hand and looked somewhat familiar.
After a moment of thought, Shen Qiqi remembered that the old man was the head of a charity organization in the town and that they had met once before.
"Hello, I am..." the old man said with a smile in a loud voice.
"I know, you are Uncle Li." Shen Qiqi quickly let the old man into the house, and a trace of doubt arose in her heart. Why would he come to visit so suddenly at such a late hour?
"I heard in town today that your elderly care service encountered financial problems, so I wanted to come and see if there was anything I could do to help." Uncle Li said straight to the point, his tone sincere.
After Shen Qiqi heard this, her mind suddenly became clear. It turned out that there is always a bright future after a dark period!
She quickly told Uncle Li the situation in detail. After listening, Uncle Li nodded thoughtfully.
"Although our charity organization does not have much funding, we can provide some material support. In addition, we also have some cooperative projects that can help you connect with some resources." Uncle Li's tone was filled with excitement, as if he had found a "savior."
When Shen Qiqi heard this, she was so happy that she almost blossomed. Isn't this just like giving someone a pillow when they are sleepy?
She held Uncle Li's hand and said excitedly, "Uncle Li, you are really my savior! I was just worrying about having no money, and you came!"
Uncle Li was infected by Shen Qiqi's enthusiasm and laughed, "It's all for the villagers, it's good to be able to help."
In the following time, Shen Qiqi and Uncle Li discussed the details of the cooperation in detail and determined some specific cooperation plans.
At this time, the Lu family was relieved of the gloom caused by this sudden "good news", and smiles appeared on everyone's faces again.
Early the next morning, Shen Qiqi dragged Lu Qing to the office of the charity organization in a hurry.
She felt like she had been injected with chicken blood and was full of strength.
Looking at his wife's fighting spirit, Lu Qing showed a proud smile on his face. She is his "little sun"!
In the office of the charity organization, Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing worked in perfect harmony, one talking freely while the other carefully supplemented the details, making the details of the new elderly care service plan clearer and more complete.
Lu Qing's eyes were filled with love when he looked at Shen Qiqi, so gentle that it could squeeze water out of her.
Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's gaze, and her heart was filled with sweetness. She felt like she was about to bubble with happiness.
After in-depth negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreement.
The charity organization decided to provide some financial support and material assistance, and help Shen Qiqi connect with some social resources.
When Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing walked out of the charity organization's office, the sun was shining brightly, shining warmly on them.
She took a deep breath and felt unprecedented ease and happiness. The power in her heart seemed to have been unlocked.
At this moment, Lu Qing suddenly grabbed Shen Qiqi, a meaningful look flashed in his eyes, and said: "Qiqi, I don't think things are that simple..."
The sun shines on the Lu family courtyard, and the air is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. The old people sit in the yard, some playing chess, some chatting, and some basking in the sun, their faces filled with happy smiles.
Since the implementation of the new elderly care service plan, the quality of life of the elderly has improved visibly. They all look radiant and energetic, as if they have been given a boost.
"Qiqi, this new massage chair is so comfortable, even more comfortable than the back massage my little grandson gives me!" Old Mrs. Lu sat on the massage chair, smiling from ear to ear, and the wrinkles on her face stretched out like a blooming chrysanthemum.
"That's right, I feel ten years younger!" Grandma Wang next door also echoed, her tone full of energy.
Shen Qiqi looked at the happy faces of the elderly, and her heart felt sweeter than eating honey. She felt like a "winner in life".
She hummed a little tune and walked briskly among the old people, chatting and joking with them from time to time. The whole courtyard was filled with laughter and was as lively as the New Year.
Lu Qing looked at his wife busying around.
Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's hug, and a warm current surged in her heart. She raised her head and smiled sweetly at Lu Qing, "For the sake of our family, this little bit of hardship is nothing."
Although the new elderly care service plan is progressing smoothly, Shen Qiqi has not let down her guard. She is well aware of the truth that "the revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard."
She plans to further improve follow-up services, such as organizing activities that interest the elderly to enrich their spiritual life; for example, improving their diet and improving their nutritional level, etc.
Thinking of this, Shen Qiqi's heart was full of anticipation. She seemed to see a better picture: the elderly lived healthily and happily, their faces were filled with happy smiles, and the whole family was full of warmth and harmony.
However, just when Shen Qiqi was immersed in her beautiful vision, Uncle Li suddenly called.
"Qiqi, there is something I want to discuss with you..." Uncle Li's tone was a little hesitant, as if he had something to hide.
Shen Qiqi's heart skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition came to her mind.
She vaguely felt that the aid from the charity organization might not be as simple as she imagined. There might be some additional conditions, and these conditions might have some impact on her family...
"Uncle Li, you said..." Shen Qiqi tried to keep herself calm, but a hint of uneasiness still revealed in her tone.
"It's like this..." Uncle Li paused, then said, "Our charity organization recently received a new project and needs some manpower..."
When Lu Qing heard this, his brows furrowed slightly. He snatched the phone and asked in a serious tone, "Uncle Li, what do you mean?"
