No.260th nursing mother and her flood-fighting ＂women soldiers＂

In this squad, Li Jie is responsible for leading five "post-90 s" girls to and from the township government and the flood control front line every day. They send heatstroke prevention drugs and daily necessities to their comrades who are on duty on the levee, and also share the task of patrolling the levee. After delivering the materials every day, the team members picked up the tools for inspecting the dike and put them into the dike inspection.

In the hot summer, dressed in camouflage uniforms and in the scorching sun, they walked with vigorous steps, patrolling the dikes over and over again to check the dangers and clear the dikes. They have to walk for more than an hour every day on the 450-meter Fanglan Lake embankment. The reason why they walk for a long time is not because they walk slowly, but because they check carefully and patrol carefully. Every time I come back from the inspection, although everyone is tired and sweaty and their clothes are soaked, no one wants to stop. In addition, in order to be familiar with the professional knowledge of flood control, Li Jie also specially invited male cadres with rich experience in flood control to give lessons to learn to identify bubbles and piping.

In order to devote herself to the flood control work, Li Jie gave her son to her parents for care. Every morning, Li Jie will squeeze out the breast milk that the child wants to drink that day and store it. Then, she will lead five team members to start a day’s work. Whenever she talks about her family, Li Jie feels guilty. Originally, her parents were going to travel, but in order to support her work, she returned the booked air tickets and hotels. For her son who has just turned 10 months old, she feels guilty that she can’t accompany her children as often as other nursing mothers. However, when she saw that the soldiers of the army were desperate for flood fighting and disaster relief day and night, she could not be indifferent.

In the flood control front line of Fanglan Lake embankment in Yujiahe Township, Lushan District, Jiujiang, this "women soldiers" can be said to be known to everyone. They take the initiative and go in the rain, and fighting floods and disaster relief is no longer a man’s "patent". Some of them are just married and some are pregnant, but they still show their grace with practical actions.

The story of disaster relief is real every day. These women give up their families and care for everyone. Their figures stand tall in the flood control and disaster relief, which makes us firmly believe that we will finally see the rainbow after the storm. Let’s say thank you to those who stick to the front line of flood control and practice the "Do not forget your initiative mind" with actions!
