The son is gone, she turns her thoughts into 10 million trees

This is a story of an old -fashioned mother.

Her name is Yitong. At the age of 74, she lost her love in 2000. After several choices, she finally decided to live for her son's desire to "plant trees and forests" during his life. For 20 years in the summer, she turned sadly into tens of millions of trees that stand in Inner Mongolia and Gansu, greened 40,000 acres of deserts and Gobi.

During the interview with the reporter, Yi Juan was planting trees in Dunhuang. Although he could only use video dialogue, he was still infected by her strong spirit. "Speaking of my heart, now more important than children's wish is living children and living people. Greening desert is for future generations, for hundreds of millions of people." She said.

In 2004, Yitu was liberated to the first tree under the Kuron flag. Interviewee confidence

It is difficult to live, and it is difficult to die. What should I do?

"The course of our family is basically related to the death of the child." Yi Jiefang told her story to reporters. For 20 years, every tree she planted by herself was buried as a mother, her delicate and deep love and pain.

In May 2000, the family has worked hard in Japan for many years. Easy to liberate to work in a large tourism company. If the accident did not happen, the couple planned to return to Shanghai's leaves after graduation. "The child said that he could break into Japan. He was more independent. We have been exercising him since childhood. He has excellent life management and interpersonal communication."

"Mom, what are you going to do after you go back?"

"We must not be idle when we retire, we may do some charity public welfare."

"Isn't the dust raging in China now? You just go to Inner Mongolia to plant trees!"

It is easy to liberate a family of three photos. (Photo confession in the respondent)

The dialogue at the time was easy to liberate. She thinks that the proposal of planting trees is very good, and the more the son said, "Mom, we either do not do it, do it to be bigger!"

"You don't have a tone." She joked, "It is necessary to make a big money. How do we just do it? It is okay to dedicate a little power."

No one expected that once a daily chat will become the belief that supports the liberation of couples to live. Half a month later, the son died on the spot on the way to school. "The whole family has collapsed, and the sky is dark." Yi Jiefan wanted to end his life a few times, but he always felt that the child was stopping her.

It is difficult to live, and it is difficult to die. What should I do? She made a mother's choice- "I can only think about what children want to do during their lifetime, and make up their minds to realize his desire to plant trees and afforestation."

One of the episodes in the interview left a deep impression on reporters: a teacher and student in Wangcheng District, Changsha City, Changsha, Hunan, contacted Easy Liberation and prepared to contribute to planting trees. The primary school was aided by the emancipated husband and wife. In fact, the two had joined the public welfare cause before planting trees.

From Inner Mongolia to Gansu, she is called "Mother of the Earth"

The first batch of trees below the planting are in Kulun Banner in Tongliao City, Inner Mongolia. She signed an agreement with the local government of 10,000 acres of desert and 1.1 million trees. As a Shanghai woman, she has never seen the desert before and has never been challenged by sandstorms. This base was inspected to the west from the eastern part of Inner Mongolia and measured and selected by footsteps.

Anyone who is familiar with easy liberation knows that in order to plant trees, her efforts and physical efforts are huge. I want to ask her how much it costs, it is difficult to count it before and after. There are almost no donations in the early days of planting tree afforestation, and the public welfare awareness of the people is also in its infancy. The savings of the couple in Japan, the son's traffic accident compensation and life insurance, the three sets of real estate sold in Shanghai, which all of them are invested, which stroke of which stroke None of them are small.

How many injuries to her because of planting trees? It is also difficult to count clearly. I only know that the process of planting trees is extremely difficult. The aircraft, cars, and carriages can only reach the desert for a day or two. The saplings have to hold their hands. Over the years, only the surgery that only needs to be operated has experienced more than 10 times. Easy to liberate at Ecological Forest Base in Inner Mongolia. (Photo confession in the respondent)

"There are many places that I have broken, the collarbone is broken, the ribs are broken, and the ligaments have been broken. One time after the intestinal resection, the tree was planted without taking a good rest, causing the abdominal muscles to collapse. Fracture, almost unable to stand up again. "Yi Jiefang said.

From Kuron Banner, to Laoukou County, to Duolun County, from 2003 to 2018, she led volunteers to complete the afforestation of three bases in Inner Mongolia, and used 8 million trees to green 30,000 acres of desert. The survival rate was used. It reaches more than 85%and is donated to the local area.

Subsequently, easy to liberate to Gansu, start a new round of trees planting, plan to plant another 2 million trees, greening 10,000 acres of desert. She is called "Mother of the Earth".

Because the previous second lumbar spine was fragmented, it was easy to liberate the crutch. In the spring of 2021, when the scene where 3,000 volunteers participated in, it was easy to liberate the crutch and threw a crutch.

"As long as I don't fall, no one can bring me down!"

Shuttle is one of the most liberated tree species. Coincidentally, in a sense, shuttles can also be called "mother". Economic crops are parasitic parasitic on the root of the shuttle, and the two are "mother and child relationship". Under the suggestions of some forestry staff in Inner Mongolia, local planting companies planted cistrates on the root of shuttle.

The practice exploration of "Green Water and Qingshan is the Golden Mountains and Silver Mountains" is the direction of hard work. "The tree species in the desert must be managed after it is good, otherwise we can't live. The shuttle we planted provides opportunities for enterprises, and the enterprise must help us to raise shuttle." She said, "Cistanche depends on the shuttle. The company has to serve the 'mother' in order to raise 'children'. "

The rope sawwood was broken, and the water droplets were worn. Under the inspiration of the perseverance of Easy Liberation and the spirit of the "Mother of the Earth", as well as the improvement of the public welfare consciousness of the people, and the media publicity and reports, many lovers actively devoted themselves to desertification. The tree below takes care of his own child.

According to statistics from easy liberation, nearly 100,000 people participating in donations and participating in tree planting activities in the past 20 years. She said, "Our volunteers are like me."

Most of the time of easy liberation of trees is planted outside, and the time to stay in Shanghai's house is only two or three months. Mr. Yang Antai persuaded her that she had planted a lot of trees, and it was very hard. Don't toss again. Yitu agreed, but couldn't stop. "When I thought of stopping, my heart was empty." She said.

Successfully, the tree planting project in Gansu will be completed at the end of this year, and it will be easy to start the next project in Ningxia. "I think people have to do something, no matter how old, as long as you have confidence." Yi Jiefang said, "As long as I do n’t lie down, no one wants to bring me down. I promised our volunteers , Be sure to walk on the way to planting the tree! "

Easy to liberate a paragraph to his son -alive, stand upright to block the wind and sand, fall down, ignite himself to give others light and warmth.

A plant planted, one inch of inch, a little green, and the new life. Behind this vicissitudes of the sea is the persistence of turquoise white hair, the perseverance of Yugong Mountain, and a deep love of a mother.
