When his father owed a 20 yuan borrowing before his lifetime, Du Pingjiang always remembered his heart. Six0 years later, Du Pingjiang, who had been over 80 years old, took out the accumulated 20,000 yuan pension and donated to Nanjing Children's Welfare Institute to repay the kindness. (Report on the A05 version on September 21st)

After the incident was published by the exclusive all -media platform of the Chitian Metropolis Daily, it attracted widespread concern in society.

The borrower did not leave the name surname. Why did Du Pingjiang keep the matter in his heart for 60 years? It has been 60 years old, why choose to "repay debts" now? Wish is already, what is the inner thought? On September 21, the reporter of the Chutian Metropolis Daily conversed "Grandpa Xinyi". In the face of the reporter's interview, Du Pingjiang's heart was revealed.

Father warns us to be a person, and we must pay back

Reporter: You are now called "Grandpa Xinyi" by netizens. What do you think of this name?

Grandpa Xinyi: To be honest, I didn't expect that this small thing I did would get so much attention. I am very grateful to everyone for their praise, but what I do is very ordinary and normal. When the benefactor came to my house, when the situation of my orphan and widow came, I left without saying a word. Essence

Reporter: How did your father teach your brothers and sisters during your lifetime? And is there an impression of father?

Grandpa Xinyi: In my impression, my father is a dumb person. He was always busy. When I was young, he was a business. He ran around for a livelihood, and Guangzhou, Shanghai, Nanjing and other places ran around. When I was a kid, I went to school in Jiwan Town, Zaoyang City, Zaoyang City, and did not come to Wuhan until the age of seven or eight, so my impression of him basically started from this time.

Father has always warned us to be a person to divide, and the money owed must be repaid. This sentence is accompanied by my life and has a great impact on me.

Later, I joined the work for a year and had just turned right. I was very happy, because I could make money to support my family and reduce the burden on the family. However, my father was diagnosed with thyroid cancer. The condition developed quickly and left in almost a month. I remember that at that time, he compressed his throat because of his swollen neck, and he could hardly speak, and he couldn't eat it. He told me before his death that he wanted to eat canned oranges. At that time, canned oranges was very rare. I entrusted a lot of people and finally bought a bottle. Before he died, he ate canned oranges.

I can't drag this matter, I'm afraid I regret it

Reporter: 60 years, why didn't you give up repay?

Grandpa Xinyi: The 20 yuan that year was equivalent to a monthly salary of an ordinary person, not a small number. People have no faith, but the small letter is a great letter. In the past 60 years, maybe I couldn't find the benefactor of the year, but the grace of dripping water reported to the spring, others helped me, I also had to give back to the society! After the money was donated to Nanjing Children's Welfare Institute, he hoped to help more children. It was also thanks to the help of the Nanjing benefactor to our family.

Reporter: Why choose to donate this money this year?

Grandpa Xinyi: Actually, I have this idea, but I am the eldest son at home. The family of six relying on my salary and the government's rescue money. It wasn't until retirement that there was no time to think about it. After telling my wife, she supported me very much. At the end of August this year, I fell. I don't think this can be dragged down anymore, I have to do it immediately, I am afraid to leave regrets.

Reporter: On the 19th, when you saw a reporter for the first time, you directly entrusted 20,000 yuan to reporters. What did you think at the time?

Grandpa Xinyi: I am a loyal reader of the Chutian Metropolis Daily. I hope that through you the 60 -year wish, I know you can help me. In fact, I took the money out of the bank a few days ago. After taking it out, I hid my wife to secretly come to the newspaper to explore the way. I put the money in a cloth bag these days, and I have been thinking about finding a chance to give you a chance to help me fulfill my wish.

Reporter: I heard that you paid a large party fee of 221 yuan to the Sannan Road Street Retirement Branch of Middle South Road last year.

Grandpa Xinyi: I joined the party in 1983 and is an old party member who is almost 40 years old. Because my legs and feet were inconvenient and could not send the party fees to the street, I commissioned an old colleague to pay on behalf of it. Thank you for your care for the party and the government over the years. I always have a grateful heart. Therefore, with the opportunity of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the party last year, I paid the party fee of 2021 yuan to give the party's birthday to gift.

I hope to find the benefactor, think of "thank you" in the face of Nanjing

Reporter: On the same day, at the moment you remitted the money, you choked.

Grandpa Xinyi: I think I finally did it. In 1963, on the day of the benefactor, I wrote on the diary, "I think, I will definitely give it to you this money." Now, I can comfort my parents in the spirit of heaven: your son, there is no words, it is a speech, it is a lecture, it is a lecture. Credit.

Reporter: After donating this money, is there any other wish?

Grandpa Xinyi: This 60 -year -old mind can finally let go. But I was wondering, would my father go to the north and go to the north, will he still owe other people's money? If someone else can provide my father's own lata, after notarization by the relevant departments, I am willing to continue to pay off the debt.

Reporter: We have contacted the media in Nanjing to help you find the benefactor of the year.

Grandpa Xinyi: Although my legs and feet are inconvenient, but if I can find the kind of benefactor, I want to go to Nanjing for a trip.
