Relief efforts top rural leader's priorities

Li Zongyin, the 57-year-old Party chief of Guhe village in Anhui province, prepared cured pork and steamed buns, asking his wife, "Do you want anything else?"

His wife, Wu Yunlan, was diagnosed with leukemia about two months ago and has been receiving treatment in Suzhou, Jiangsu province, for more than a month.

To save money, Wu has been living in Wuxi, where her youngest daughter works. During Wu's time in Suzhou and Wuxi, Li has been able to spend just four days looking after her.
