Born in September 1953, he is a native of Xujiawu Village, Huangshan Town, and the administrator of the love canteen in Xujiawu Village. In the fourth quarter of 2023, he was rated as a "good person of Shaoxing".
The old people wait for lunch at 10:30, and I have to go door-to-door to deliver food at this time of the day. Every day at 10:20 a.m., at the door of the love canteen in Xujiawu Village, Huangshan Town, Xu Xikang started his electric tricycle on time. On the bus is a blue incubator, which contains boxes of love lunches prepared for the elderly who have registered to eat at the love canteen, and some of the villagers' orders, and the dishes of the day are braised pork, mung bean sprouts and taro.
Xu Xikang is 71 years old this year, and since the establishment of the village love canteen in September 2021, he has served as the "full-time administrator" of the love canteen. In the fourth quarter of 2023, he was named a "Good Person of Shaoxing".
Deliver hot meals rain or shineXujiawu is a mountain village, and the villagers' houses are built on both sides of the sloping village road. Every day, Xu Xikang has to send two trips, one down and one up. Along the rugged village road, Xu Xikang's electric tricycle started "suddenly".
Today it is a total of 52 meals, 41 for the elderly, and 11 for the villagers. Xu Xikang told reporters that the oldest of the elderly is 97 years old, some of them live alone, and some villagers are engaged in infrastructure construction at home, and they will also order meals for workers, so they can save worry.
When Xu Xikang's tricycle stopped in the old place, Xu Wanlong and Xu Caizhen, who were in their 80s, walked out of the house. This is their tacit understanding. Xu Caizhen was very happy when she received the meal: "Xikang delivers us food on time every day, and it is so convenient to have a caring canteen in the village!."”
For some elderly people with limited mobility, Xu Xikang will deliver a boxed lunch to their home and shout loudly that they can eat.
There are two meal assistance points in the Love Canteen, which is a place for the elderly in the neighborhood to eat. As soon as Xu Xikang arrived, the old people gathered around and took away their own food, discussing what kind of food they were eating today, and their happiness was overflowing.
In the more than two years since the operation of the village love canteen, I have delivered meals to the elderly every day, rain or shine, so that the elderly can eat hot meals on time, and I feel at ease. Xu Xikang said.
One person wears many hats, serving the love canteenIn September 2021, a love canteen was built in Xujiawu Village. At that time, there weren't many success stories to refer to. How to operate for a long time?How to manage?How can I save money?Everything needs to be figured out by yourself.
It was under such circumstances that Xu Xikang was ordered to serve as the "full-time administrator" of the love canteen. said that he is full-time because he is responsible for many tasks in the love canteen alone, and he does everything himself.
I used to be a clerk and accountant in the village, but after I retired, the two village committees asked me to be in charge of the love canteen, and I was responsible for the village and the villagers, and ran the love canteen well. ”Xu Xikang was the first to come to the Love Canteen every day and the last to leave.

The careful Xu Xikang thinks about the elderly everywhere. "I've eaten a lot of mung bean sprouts during this time, and I'm going to change the taste for the old people tomorrow. Xu Xikang told reporters that in order to let the elderly eat at ease, the canteen never burns fish, for fear that the fish bones will get stuck in the throat of the elderly, and generally burns some soft and rotten dishes, so as to meet the appetite of the elderly.
Cultivating vegetable plots to save costsIn order to save costs, Xu Xikang united several old party members to reclaim a "love vegetable field".Daily voluntary maintenance, the vegetables grown are given to the canteen, which basically meets the vegetable needs of the canteen and can save more than 20,000 yuan a year.
The reporter saw in the "Love Memory" column of the love canteen that the villagers came to donate money and materials all over the wall, and those comfortable smiling faces gathered like drops of warm current, sprinkling love all over the mountain village. So far, the canteen has received a total of 13 cash donations710,000 yuan. Municipal subsidies, donations from villagers, and self-grown vegetables make the cost almost the same. Xu Xikang introduced.
It is worth mentioning that there are a large number of selfless people in the love canteen. "There are as many as forty or fifty people in our village, who are free to form a group of 3 people every day. They went to the canteen early in the morning to work, washing, cutting, cooking, waiting for the elderly to come to dine-in, and then washing dishes and hygiene. Xu Xikang said.
