97-year-old Gao Meiyun, in order to support the entire family and pay for her son and grandson’s medical care, must repeat these steps every day nearly 100 times. A 20kg bottle of water before this 37.5kg elderly person is truly too heavy. In order to support her physically handicapped son and mentally handicapped grandsom, 97-year-old Gao Meiyun alone shoulders the burden of financially supporting the entire family. To make a living, she opened a water store, becoming the well-known “Water Delivery Granny” in a neighborhood of [Beijing’s] Shijingshan District Yangzhuang Middle District. Every day, the morning and evenings are the peak hours. It doesn’t matter if it is 6 in the morning or 10 at night, no matter if it is windy or raining, as long as a customer calls, the old lady will immediately deliver the water to their door. Transporting [water] over time has caused her back to become severely hunched. The old lady has written a letter to this newspaper seeking kind-hearted peoples’ help, help to provide medical care to her son and grandson, to help them get past this difficult time. Readers who want to help can call this newspaper’s hotline at 58635863 to register, and we will quickly get in touch with you.

97-year-old lady swindled
Summary: 97-year-old granny Gao depends on delivering bottled water to support her physically handicapped son and mentally handicapped grandson. After her circumstances were reported by the media, kind-hearted city residents donated over 100,000 yuan within three days.

However, her neighbors have instead accused her of “swindling money”. With regards to this, the neighborhood district office/committee has released a statement showing that the Gao family has a monthly income of 3000 yuan, and their basic livelihood is guaranteed [they already have enough money].
