761 Silly Together
In fact, I had feelings at that time. When I was in the rural areas of southern Xinjiang, I also discovered this situation. The difference in diet between families with better conditions and those with poor conditions is actually the non-staple food. There is not much difference in staple food. It is just a regular meal.
There is meat, but it is difficult for one to have meat. The biggest difference is the question of how much. When it comes to children, it becomes a question of whether to eat one bowl of rice or two bowls of rice, whether to eat three or four meals a day or two.
"What I have observed in rural areas of southern Xinjiang is that well-developed children may not necessarily eat particularly well. For example, they may just be able to eat enough, or they may have a more reasonable diet. Children from rich families must have good development, but they eat
What can't be used as a reference? People's living conditions are superior. I guess the situation over there is similar to that in southern Xinjiang. Maybe everyone here has enough to eat, but many people over there still don't have enough to eat.
I did calculations when I was doing training. Most people in rural areas of southern Xinjiang can guarantee normal nutrition and not go hungry with an average food expense of ten yuan a day. This cost may not guarantee nutrition in Beijing, but in Shanghai, for example, buying
A few kilograms of rice, just eating rice, is enough. Even if you barely buy food and cook for yourself, the result of the ten yuan a day standard is malnutrition and not enough to eat. When you asked me questions before, I felt that your work
The point is not to improve children's development by directly improving their living standards, but to try under existing standards. So I thought of seeing how the same poor people with better development eat their meals. Maybe that's what you're talking about.
Those extra plant debris may play a nutritional role. Remember the book I talked about before? It's called The Essence of Poverty, and it actually talks about something similar."
That book says this, despite observation, in extremely poor areas of India, when the income of the poor improves, they do not immediately expand the scale of production, nor do they buy some daily necessities or basic grains such as rice and noodles.
Some people will use the extra money to eat things they couldn't afford before, such as increasing the amount of vegetables or meat, or buying more expensive non-staple foods.
According to my casual observation, this is probably a common characteristic of poor people. When they get rich, the first thing they think of is improving their lives, rather than actively investing in production and expanding the scale of production as the poverty alleviators think.
"What else did you see in the book?" Hua Wen asked.
"This is also what worries me. I remember they investigated the use and recovery of preferential loans for poverty alleviation. A very large proportion, in some places the proportion was as high as 70 or 80 percent, was that these people did not repay the loans.
For example, when lending money, it was suggested that they could use half of the loan to buy seeds and half of the loan to buy fertilizer. But they bought all the seeds, but the harvest was very poor, which amounted to a loss, so that they could not return the loan. Some people even misappropriated the loan.
If you do other things, in their opinion, you don’t have to pay back the money." I said.
"I understand your worries. Alimujiang is a good person. If Accountant Bai is still in charge of financial management, it shouldn't be a big problem. You should communicate with Accountant Bai more often."
"Hua Wen, this is the first time in a long time that you have told me how I should do things. It feels very cordial."
"You are just an immature fool who makes people worry. When will you be able to turn around? You should worry about me and let me live a silly and happy life." Hua Wen said.
"Come back, let's be silly together. I know what you mean when you call me Er Sha, which is the abbreviation of Two Fools."
"I will go back when you have the ability to make me stupid."
"Are you talking about financial ability?"
"Think about it yourself. I have to go to work. It's already midnight for you to go to bed."
I looked at my watch and saw that it was indeed midnight. I had the courage to worry about my life, so I put on my shoes and went to the back door. I wanted to see how the young people were doing at night in the camp. Maybe for our sake, the back door of the farm was opened today.
It was not locked at night, and the bonfire that I had put fuel on had been extinguished. I gently buried it with sand to avoid sparks.
The camp was very quiet, at least no one was snoring. After confirming that there was nothing unusual, I turned back to go back. At this moment, I heard Xu Aiqin calling me in a low voice, then got out of the tent and followed me back to the breeding farm.
"Mr. Li, it's so scary. I couldn't sleep. I kept hearing noises around me. When you came just now, I was scared to death. Then I thought it might be someone, so I had the courage to look through the gap in the tent and recognized you.
"
"You may be insecure, relatively sensitive, and worried about the surrounding environment. It doesn't matter. Otherwise, you can sleep in my room and I'll sleep in the tent."
"Isn't that the same?"
"You were in Hami. When you first came to Kashgar, you were in an inn. Then you were alone in Yarkand. I think you just felt uneasy about the tent. If you live in a house, you won't have this problem."
"Forget it, I've never been camping before. I finally got a chance to experience it. I'll go back and give it a try. Besides, there are so many employees here. If something happens if I leave, it would be irresponsible."
After sending Xu Aiqin back to the tent, I told her that I would sit outside for a while, standing guard, so that she could sleep peacefully. In the dark, I estimated that if anyone came out of any tent, they would be taken advantage of by me sitting in the dark.
The people standing there are frightened. I am not bored. The stars in the sky shocked me again. After seeing many scenery many times, I will only remember the first time I saw the scenery. But for the starry sky, every time I feel like it is the first time.
See, the beauty of the starry sky is one aspect, the depth and feeling of insignificance is another aspect.
While I was looking up at the starry sky, my cell phone suddenly rang, which startled me. On the one hand, I was unprepared in the quiet night, and on the other hand, I was worried about waking up the nearly twenty people sleeping.
I took it out and looked at it, and it was an unexpected person, Zhu Feifei, who sent me a message and asked me if I had slept.
"What's wrong? It's almost three o'clock, why haven't you gone to bed yet? Are you on night shift?"
"No, I'm at my home in the new hospital area. Something happened just now. Can you come over?"
It was so late. If it was not a big problem, Zhu Feifei would not contact me. Fortunately, I happened not to be asleep. But I was a little anxious. Although this girl has not yet obtained the medical qualification, she really understands these things.
Right now he is still sending me messages so leisurely.
I felt like I dialed the phone directly: "What happened? I'm in the countryside. I'll rush over right away. If it's serious, you call an ambulance first. You are a doctor yourself, so you should be able to judge this. Besides, your family area
It’s right next to the hospital, very convenient.”
"Then don't, I have nothing to do. I thought if you were in the city, I would come here and forget about it in the countryside." Zhu Feifei said.
"It's okay. I'm suffering from insomnia. I'll be here in a minute. If anything happens, just call an ambulance." After hanging up the phone, I went back to the room, picked up my bag, got in the car, and headed back. I couldn't care about anything else.
When I opened the door, I called up Teacher Maimaiti’s wife and opened the door for me. She looked sleepy but didn’t know what was going on and opened the door for me. Because her understanding of Mandarin was limited, I just said I was in a hurry.
