In the year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, a medical student from Shanghai chose to marry her husband who was 15 years older than her after graduation. She may not have expected that her husband would become *** and she would become the first lady of China. Her name is Lin Jialin, a native of Jiangsu, born in a wealthy family in Danyang in the early twenties of the last century.
As a teenager, she received a good education and aspired to become a doctor, and at the age of 21, she was admitted to a well-known medical school in Shanghai, taking the first step towards realizing her dream. On the eve of liberation, she left campus and became a doctor. Soon after, she met her future husband *** under the introduction of a friend, and the two were like-minded, and they became husband and wife in only half a year. However, their marriage was not all smooth sailing, because *** is over 40 years old, 15 years older than her, and has been married, so her family and friends have opposed their marriage.
However, in getting along with ***, she firmly chose this marriage because she knew that he would be her partner for the rest of her life. They are happily married, have three children, and have made great achievements in their careers. Lin Jialin worked as a pediatrician in a hospital in Wuhan in his early years, and later served as the vice president of Wuhan Maternal and Child Health Hospital and the director of the Maternal and Child Health Bureau of the Ministry of Health with his excellent medical skills and rich experience.
After entering the 80s, she held a leadership position in the Chinese Medical Association and served as the president of the Chinese Women Physicians Association, making outstanding contributions to the national medical cause. In addition, she also has outstanding achievements in the field of education, and is one of the first people in China to engage in the research of children's growth and parent-child relationship between 0 and 6 years old. Lin Jialin, a hard-working and virtuous mother-in-law, not only devoted herself to her work, but also took care of the lives of her husband and children.
Her husband is an important leading cadre of the country, busy with government affairs, often running around, and has no time to take care of family chores. However, Lin Jialin silently took on family responsibilities, never complained, and was busy with housework with one hand and focused on work with the other. With the support of this hard-working and virtuous wife, ** was able to devote himself to national affairs, served as deputy prime minister for many years, and was elected *** in 1983
After the death of her husband, she went to the Hexi Corridor many times to comfort the revolutionary veterans, spread medical knowledge, and donate medicines and supplies. She also went to Bashan many times, regardless of her aging body, and called for the inheritance of the red spirit. Lin Jialin has been living a low-key life since retiring in his later years, rarely appearing in public. Like her husband, she also loves calligraphy, practices it often, and has quite a good accomplishment. Now, Lin Jialin is 99 years old and is about to celebrate her 100th birthday, let us sincerely wish her health and happiness, and a long life!
