In November 1990, the 46-year-old Wu Tianxiang took up a new job - the deputy director of the Letters and Calls Office of Wuchang District, Wuhan City.Since then, he has worked silently and dedicated himself in this ordinary post.Over the past few years, he has received more than 10,000 petitioners, handled nearly 10,000 problems, and actively solved problems for poor households.Later, when he became the deputy head of the district, it was still the same. His deeds have touched thousands of households: in order to help military family members solve their housing difficulties, he rode a bicycle seven times between Wuchang and Hankou; Obstacles: He donated more than 5,500 milliliters of blood 18 times, jumped into the Yangtze River to save people 4 times, and made more than 300 "poor relatives"; he never used a bus to visit the masses for investigation and research, and insisted on taking a bus or riding a bicycle in Jiangcheng for decades , replaced 16 bicycles successively; as the deputy head of the district in charge of labor and employment, he helped resettle more than 300 children of laid-off workers, but never resettled a relative or friend. So far, many of his relatives are farming and setting up street stalls in the countryside of their hometown.Every time he moved, he insisted on disclosing his house number and phone number to the public.

Over the past 10 years, Wu Tianxiang has successively supported 7 orphans and widows, and raised 5 orphans. In the eyes of many people, Wu Tianxiang's "unusual" lies in the fact that he does everything so "ordinarily", year after year, day after day. Give up the bed twice, receive the masses, and donate all the condolences——Wu Tianxiang still did not forget the bounden duty of a Communist Party member during his 73 days in the hospital for an operation, and spread the word of "selfless dedication and dedication to the people" in the ward. In the middle of the night, in the ophthalmology ward of the inpatient department of the Provincial People's Hospital.Wu Tianxiang was lying on a long wooden chair in the corridor, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. He had just had glaucoma surgery, and his eyes had not yet healed.Suddenly, a pair of thin hands held his hand tightly, "District Chief Wu, you sleep here—" Zeng Muqing, a 72-year-old farmer, was speechless with mixed feelings.

Zeng Muqing, a villager in Group 5 of Ningbao Village, Zhuru Street, Caidian District, had a grandson who underwent surgery for retinal detachment and was admitted to the inpatient department of the Provincial People's Hospital.The money was almost spent, so he didn't dare to stay in a hotel, and was afraid of affecting the child's recovery, so Zeng Muqing sat on a stool and slept next to the bed.Wu Tianxiang, who loves to "drop in" to various wards, saw that old man Zeng's face was so bad, and after asking the reason, he said: "Old Zeng, go to sleep in my hospital bed tonight." Old man Zeng couldn't help asking: "Then you sleep Where?" Wu Tianxiang smiled and waved his hands: "I have a solution."

After sleeping until midnight, the old man Zeng got up to urinate and found Wu Tianxiang on the wooden chair next to the toilet.He felt sad for a moment, and held Wu Tianxiang's hand tightly: "I thought you had a place to sleep, but it turned out that you slept here. District Chief Wu, you and I are not related, why are you so kind to me?" Wu Tianxiang replied: "I If you are a member of the Communist Party, you are not a member of the Communist Party if you don’t care about the common people.” From being hospitalized on June 30 to being discharged on September 10, Wu Tianxiang met many "poor relatives" like Zeng Muqing during the short 73 days he was hospitalized in the Department of Dermatology and Ophthalmology of the Provincial People's Hospital, leaving touching stories behind him.

Doctors and nurses must not forget that there are always people looking for Wu Tianxiang's ward. From 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., there is an endless stream of people visiting him, petitioning him, and asking him to solve problems.Due to poor rest and high intraocular pressure, his glaucoma surgery had to be postponed repeatedly.In order to allow him to rest, the organization arranged for him a high-ranking cadre ward. Wu Tianxiang declined six times: "The high-ranking cadre ward is too expensive. Besides, I have to be with the masses." During the hospitalization, he stayed in the general ward.The condolences from all walks of life at all levels totaled 15,600 yuan. After discussing with his wife, Wu Tianxiang donated all of them to 27 needy households, and recorded them one by one in his notebook: 2,000 yuan from Zeng Muqing in Caidian District, 1,000 yuan from Pan Xiulan in Zhonghua Road Street...

Wu Tianxiang has always adhered to the outlook on life of "life is alive, the word 'devotion'", he is willing to help others, and is willing to make friends with "poor relatives" and "poor friends", and often provides help to people who have difficulties in life.Over the years, he used his rest time to visit hundreds of families, know the feelings of hundreds of families, warm the hearts of thousands of people, and helped countless people in difficulties to tide over the difficulties. People regard him as a relative.He is clean and honest in government, refuses to eat invitations, refuses to accept gifts, is indifferent to fame and fortune, and uses his actual actions to build a "heart-to-heart bridge" between the party and the masses.
