Chu Jianmei gets along very well with the users. Chu Jianmei is severely allergic to ultraviolet rays. On her first day taking meter readings, she went out with an umbrella, hat, and long-sleeved clothes. The place where she takes meter readings is far away, with no transportation available. One of the five transformer districts she is responsible for has three meter boxes serving 19 households. It takes 40 minutes to walk between these three meter boxes, and it's a place that no one wants to go. Men have to work odd jobs outside to earn money to support their families, often leaving women at home alone. Every time Chu Jianmei takes meter readings, she buys bananas that women like to eat. The house smells bad, the woman's clothes are dirty, and there is no one to help wash them. Chu Jianmei rolls up her sleeves, boils water, helps her wash her face and body, changes her clothes, and even deals with her diapers. "When I help these people, I never thought about appearing on TV or in newspapers to be recognized as advanced. I didn't even want my workplace to know before. My power is small after all. If I can influence more people to stand up and help others, then it doesn't matter if people say I like to show off," said Chu Jianmei. Mengl Xianmei, a resident of Dongling Community in Tonghua City, supports her three daughters who are studying by collecting and selling scrap. Life was very hard for her. Three years ago, she found that no one had come to collect her electricity bill for four years. When she asked at the power supply company, she learned that for more than four years, a meter reader named Chu Jianmei had been paying her electricity bill. She went to the power supply company and insisted that Chu Jianmei should not pay her electricity bill for her anymore. But Chu Jianmei's loving help did not stop. After paying the electricity bill for four years, the company took over her relay of love. One day in 2008, while taking meter readings from an outdoor meter box in Nanshanwei, Chu Jianmei heard an awkward and strange laugh coming from a broken house below. Looking inside, she saw the male owner squatting down washing clothes while teasing his wife sitting crookedly on a chair, saying, "Big baby, be good at home, I'll buy you bananas today." The wife drooled but laughed happily. Spiders were crawling on the web inside the room, and the quilt randomly thrown on the bed had lost its original color. That scene touched her deeply. After understanding the situation, it turned out that the sick woman used to sell pancakes in the market. Two young men fought, and she tried to stop them but got hit on the head. At the time, no problems were detected. Unexpectedly, her condition worsened later, her mouth and eyes became skewed, and eventually, she developed cerebral palsy and became unable to take care of herself, losing control of her bladder and bowels. Both of them were originally laid-off workers without jobs. The man, surnamed Wang, still borrowed money to send his wife for treatment, but the effect was not good. On August 17th last year, when she walked in, she saw the man hugging the woman and crying, muttering, "You can't leave. What will we do if you leave?" Chu Jianmei knew that the woman's condition was getting worse, and she didn't expect that she would be gone soon. She asked the man why he didn't send her to the hospital quickly, and the man said he couldn't afford the medical expenses. Chu Jianmei cried and ran back to her workplace, telling Secretary Wei Chunmao about the situation. The next day, Jiangdong Power Supply Branch organized a donation for the entire unit, raising 2150 yuan in half an hour. When they handed the money to the man, he cried again. But the woman could not be saved and passed away the next day. The third day, the man came to Jiangdong Power Supply Branch, kneeling down to thank everyone he met, and many people in the company cried. This year on the second day of the second lunar month, Meng Xianmei's family made sugar beans and sent a bag to Chu Jianmei. Chu Jianmei gave the sugar beans to her colleagues. That night, the colleague called and said there was a note in the bag: "You are our benefactor, may you have peace and happiness, and wish you happiness and health." "I didn't think I could do this much," said Chu Jianmei. Women all love cleanliness, she thought the woman definitely wouldn't want to be dirty and smelly. Later, the woman also recognized Chu Jianmei, and whenever she saw her, she would smile and make sounds. Chu Jianmei reported the situation to her workplace, and Jiangdong Power Supply Branch also sent rice, flour, and oil during holidays, continuing to help. Four whole years have passed. Meng Xianmei inquired everywhere and finally arrived at the electricity bureau's payment window. The staff told her that the electricity bills for these four years were paid by the meter reader. Meng Xianmei is a very strong-willed woman. She made a banner and sent it to the power company, saying, "Don't pay for me anymore in the future." Chu Jianmei's salary was not high, and at that time, she still had to support her son's education. But every month, she paid Meng's electricity bill. Occasionally, she also brought clothes that her family or friends no longer wore. During festivals, she would send some rice and flour to Meng's house. Meng Xianmei saw her come to take meter readings but never urged her to pay the electricity bill. "Is our family owing fees this month?" Every time she chased after Chu Jianmei asking, the answer was always, "Your family does not owe any fees." After Jiangdong Power Supply Branch learned about this matter, Secretary Wei Chunmao and Manager Tian Zhihua paid great attention. They took Meng's family as a help target and regularly delivered rice, flour, oil, and living items during holidays. Chu Jianmei still occasionally visited her. Once, she noticed that Meng Xianmei's youngest daughter Rongrong had pus in her eyes, so she led her to the People's Liberation Army Fifth Three One Hospital. The doctor, seeing the fashionable Chu Jianmei leading the shabby little girl, thought she was an irresponsible mother. Only during the treatment process did the doctor understand their relationship and helped to advance the fees. "There's nothing I can't do!" said Chu Jianmei. There are 149 households in the five transformer districts, and she worked on this job for two whole years. Some families only had elderly people, and when their lights broke, she cheerfully went to help repair them. She left her phone number with every household. Over time, everyone liked this fashionable and enthusiastic meter reader. Some farmers picked a full bag of tomatoes for her to take home, and some elders cooked sweet potatoes and called her to eat. These small things warmed her heart. In recent years, the people she has helped are not just these two families, and the people she has influenced are not just those in Jiangdong Power Supply Branch. Now, her already working son is very filial and also willing to help others. She feels that doing these things is worth it. A few years ago, when the local media selected grateful figures, they called her the 'Meter Angel', which is quite vivid. Meng Xianmei's family lived in Erdaogou at the time. One winter day in 2004, Chu Jianmei was taking meter readings at her house and saw that the door was nailed with wooden boards, the house was small and dark, and there was no one inside. Meng's electric meter showed a debt of 5 yuan for electricity. When she asked the neighbors where the family was, they said to look around the nearby garbage pile. Walking out not far on the bumpy road, Chu Jianmei saw Meng Xianmei picking things from the garbage pile. Chu Jianmei actively greeted her and proposed to visit her house. "As soon as I entered the door, my heart tightened, and I decided to help her," said Chu Jianmei. She saw the entire family living in only about ten square meters. As soon as she entered, there was a small stove burning fiercely, but the house was still cold because the roof leaked. Meng Xianmei has three daughters. That year, her eldest daughter had just been admitted to university, her second daughter was in high school, and her youngest daughter was in elementary school. Chu Jianmei learned that the youngest daughter was picked up by Meng Xianmei from the garbage pile. Meng Xianmei said that in those years, the youngest daughter was abandoned by her parents due to illness. She picked her up and spent all her savings to treat her in the hospital. Usually, there was no money to buy fruit, so she picked rotten fruit from the garbage pile, cut off the bad parts, and fed the children. To save on electricity, the children always finished their homework at school before returning home. "Do I not look like a meter reader?" said Chu Jianmei. She has been an employee of Tonghua Power Supply Company Jiangdong Power Supply Branch for a long time, but she hasn't been assigned work for several years. She rented a stall in the mall to sell clothes, and her business was thriving. In 2004, the company notified her to return to work, assigning her the job of a meter reader. At that time, a meter reader's monthly salary was only 500 yuan. Many people advised her to continue her business and hire someone to replace her, but she didn't want to do that. "How much energy does a person have to do one thing well? Besides, why can't I be a meter reader?" said Chu Jianmei. She is warmly caring for a user whose family has a seriously ill member.
