Like Deng Yingchao, he was an outstanding member of the Communist Party of China, a proletarian revolutionary, and a staunch materialist.
The two of them met in the storm of the May Fourth Movement in 1919.
During the war years and after the founding of New China, he had infinite loyalty and love to the party, the country and all ethnic groups in the country.
In addition, ** and Deng Yingchao also have an enviable love in the world.
According to incomplete statistics, from 1938 to 1971, ** exchanged more than 70 letters with Deng Yingchao, and the number of words has exceeded 60,000 words.
These letters reflect the deep love of the two revolutionary partners in the process of working hand in hand and making contributions to the motherland.
However, when *** was ill and hospitalized, this staunch materialist wrote a letter to his long-cherished Deng Yingchao, but he said this:I have been an unwavering materialist all my life, and I hope for an afterlife.
It was this sentence that moved all Chinese to tears......
So, in the process of dating Deng Yingchao, what kind of correspondence do the two have?
In 1919, with Beijing and Tianjin as the center, the upsurge of the "May Fourth Movement" spread to the whole country.
On September 16 of the same year, more than 20 people, representing the Tianjin Student Federation and the backbone of the Women's Patriotic Comrades Association, established the Consciousness Society.
21-year-old *** and 15-year-old Deng Yingchao met for the first time.
At a conference, Deng Yingchao took the lead in giving a speech.
Although Deng Yingchao is not good-looking, his two big eyes and impassioned speech left a deep impression on the participants, and also left a special impression on the participants.
It's a pity that at that time, the first silver saved the life, and I didn't want to be dragged down by the love of my children;Deng Yingchao has a pessimistic understanding of marriage in the old society, and the two stayed with each other without further development.
In 1920, ** went to France to study, but thousands of mountains and rivers could not block the person he was worried about, this person was Deng Yingchao.
On the one hand, he worked and studied in France, and on the other hand, he planned to form an early organization of the Communist Party of China.
As long as he has time, he and Deng Yingchao interact with each other, and the two talk about ideals, the fate of the country, and their views on future work.
** Gradually found that Deng Yingchao grew up very fast, the two of them have the same three views, and they are both Marxist revolutionary workers with considerable consciousness.
So, ** revealed his love to Deng Yingchao in the letter, but Deng Yingchao never explicitly refused or agreed.
The girl is always pregnant with spring, and the two have been in frequent contact through letters, and their relationship is getting deeper and deeper.
In 1923, Deng Yingchao suddenly received a postcard from France printed with Liebknecht and Luxembourg, which read:: I hope that the future of the two of us will be like the two of them, and we will go to the guillotine together.
This sentence completely moved Deng Yingchao, and she immediately replied clearlyWe share the same ideas and hearts, and work together for the communist ideal all our lives.
After returning to China, *** took the initiative to find Deng Yingchao and showed him his true thoughts, and Deng Yingchao responded to him warmly.
In August 1925, Deng Yingchao*** and Deng Yingchao held a simple wedding ceremony in a Western restaurant on Old Hanmin Road in Guangzhou.
There was no big deal, only a few colleagues and friends were invited to participate.
During the banquet, Zhang Zhizhong asked Deng Yingchao to talk about how *** chased her down?
This was originally a joke between friends, but Deng Yingchao stepped on the bench and told her story of meeting and falling in love with ***.
This move, even the well-informed *** was taken aback.
On that day, the *** who was not drunk in a thousand cups was drunk in the staggered bargaining.
Not long after, Deng Yingchao found out that she was pregnant. At that time, the revolutionary work in Guangzhou had just begun, ** was ordered to go east, and when she was not by her side, Deng Yingchao had no choice but to choose an abortion from her husband.
**Immediately after knowing it, I wrote a letter and said with a heartache:"Your body is the capital of the revolution, and the child is not yours alone, but the offspring of the two of us. ”
In the second half of 1926, Deng Yingchao found out that she was pregnant again, but due to some accidents during childbirth, the baby died shortly after birth.
She just came out of the delivery room, just when the "April 12" counter-revolutionary coup d'état occurred in Shanghai, in order to avoid the arrest of the Kuomintang, Deng Yingchao left Guangzhou by boat and went to Shanghai to meet with ***.
Bumpy along the way and did not recuperate in time after giving birth, Deng Yingchao lost his qualification to be a mother forever, and later spent most of his time with Deng Yingchao in Wuhan, Chongqing, and Yan'an during the 14-year Anti-Japanese War.
Due to the needs of revolutionary work, the two always got together less and left more, and could only use letters for emotional exchanges.
**Although he is busy with official duties, as long as he can squeeze out time, he will definitely write a letter to Deng Yingchao, his best friend and beloved wife.
In January 1941, the Southern Anhui Incident broke out, for the sake of safety, the CCP hoped to evacuate immediately, but he decided to stay, and Deng Yingchao resolutely supported it.
During the War of Liberation, as the chief of the General Staff, he stayed in northern Shaanxi to assist in commanding the warDeng Yingchao, who served as a member of the ** rear committee and deputy secretary of the ** women's committee, successively participated in the land reform work in the rural areas of Fuping County and the national land conference.
The husband and wife were separated for more than a year, during which they exchanged 17 letters, revealing a bright, lively and strong atmosphere.
Deng Yingchao expressed his condolences and care in these letters, and expressed his deep nostalgia for his wife Deng Yingchao.
During the war years, the husband and wife relied on letters to express their thoughts, which were romantic and chic.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival in 1947, ** wrote to Deng Yingchao: During the festival in the mountainous area, I actually ate two moon cakes and a few bunches of grapes, and I was pregnant with the moon.
This winter, it snowed heavily in the south, Deng Yingchao asked***: Since yesterday, thousands of miles of snow have drifted here, and the northwest has long been frozen for thousands of miles, and thousands of miles of snow have drifted
Both of them ended their letters with the same: I hope you cherish and kiss you;The love is long and the paper is short, and it kisses you thousands of times.
It shows that their husband and wife love each other.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Deng Yingchao went to the south to recuperate due to illness, and the letters between her and *** were even more affectionate.
In late February 1951, Deng Yingchao sent plum, bamboo, camellia and red leaves to *** to share the spring of West Lake with him in the melancholy of Hangzhou's beautiful scenery.
**In addition to his busy work, he also sent a love letter to Deng Yingchao, expressing his thoughts about his wife.
On April 20, 1954, he went to Switzerland to attend the Geneva Conference.
On May 4, Deng Yingchao made a few bunches of begonia flowers blooming in the West Flower Hall of Zhongnanhai and wildflowers picked on the slopes of the suburbs into specimens, and asked a messenger to send them to ***
At the same time, he wrote a warm letter to ***, wishing *** and Chinese diplomatic staff a positive and constructive result and victory at the Geneva meeting.
**Replied late at night on June 13 to praise Deng Yingchao: You are still so enthusiastic and rational, you are really old and strong.
After that, ** collected the precious peonies and roses near the resident villa and sent them to Deng Yingchao to talk about his thoughts.
In April 1955, the Asian-African Conference was held in Bandung, and he resolutely led a delegation to go there regardless of his personal safety.
On April 10, Deng Yingchao sent a letter to *** pointing out:This was Chiang Kai-shek's deliberate assassination, and he started from all possible ways, and he must be strictly vigilant on the way, and he must win the struggle against the enemy.
**Understanding his wife's feelings, he quickly replied:With the lessons of the Kashmir Princess before, I should be more cautious, not without danger, and not without preparation, I hope you can rest assured.
In the spring of 1959, Deng Yingchao went to Guangzhou to recuperate according to the doctor's instructions, but his condition suddenly worsened shortly after he went.
**After learning about it, I was very worried about it, and I wrote to Deng Yingchao in my busy schedule: This era requires us to look forward more, think more for the sake of future generations, and have to work harder, move forward and move forward.
Through this letter, ** showed that he cared about Deng Yingchao's condition, and lost no time in warning her that she should pay attention to her Xi during her illness, otherwise she would be in danger of falling behind.
This kind of affectionate comfort makes *** and Deng Yingchao show a harmonious state in life and work, and the two compose a glorious movement of love in the journey of communist struggle.
In the early 70s of the 20th century, ** suffered from frequent heart attacks, and in 1973 he suffered from cancer, but he was still working hard.
Deng Yingchao was in pain, she knew that her husband's shoulders were very heavy, and she didn't want to disturb him too much, let alone prevent him from going out to work, so she could only accompany him silently.
Looking back on the decades of being together with Deng Yingchao, we will find that some of the twists and turns experienced by their husband and wife are almost the same as those of modern people.
For example, the marriage problems faced by modern people, such as less husband and wife gathering and more separation, externality, trust crisis, topic communication, etc., were all faced by ** and Deng Yingchao.
Coupled with the complex environment of the times, it is even more difficult.
However, the two of them exchanged letters through letters, which just showed the wisdom and sincerity of solving these problems.
**There are always endless words to say with Deng Yingchao, they can send letters to each other from the topic of the weather or the surrounding environment, as well as their views or ideas on something, so as to enhance the relationship between husband and wife, and develop a tacit understanding of talking about everything.
In peacetime, the husband and wife got together less and left more, and they also relied on letters as a link for emotional exchange.
This is the case between husband and wife, there is nothing that cannot be resolved, only one party can talk more and communicate more, and drive the other party, so that many trivial small contradictions can be resolved.
**The love experience with Deng Yingchao has not diminished for decades, in addition to the frequent communication between the two, it is the appreciation of each other and the pursuit of like-mindedness.
In Deng Yingchao's words"Because they do not love for love's sake, but melt love between people, comrades, and friends, and they form a kind of comrade-in-arms partner, a couple who love each other and always live together." ”
Therefore, the common pursuit is the most reliable foundation for *** and Deng Yingchao to be able to fall in love, and it is also the love motto that Deng Yingchao left to future generations.
However, life is in a hurry, and no matter how good the relationship is, there will always be a difference.
After 1973, ** suffered from a variety of illnesses and had to temporarily suspend work.
Maybe it was because of feelings, or it was a deep affection for Deng Yingchao, at this time, *** was no longer as strong as before, and he said a lot of love words to Deng Yingchao at once.
There is such a sentence in it: I am an unwavering materialist, and only you, I hope there will be an afterlife.
The meaning of this sentence is that he does not believe in ghosts or gods in his life, he only believes in the people, the country and the Communist Party of China, and sees life and death very lightly.
However, ** can't rest assured that he can't rest assured that he is thinking about the "Xiaochao".
He has a lot of work to do, and a lot of love words have not been said, which makes *** hope to stay in the world for a long time, stay with Deng Yingchao, and do more work for the people.
This **** love sentence written to Deng Yingchao was quickly spread on the Internet, causing all Chinese people to shed tears for the deep friendship of these two revolutionary ancestors.
On January 8, 1976, ** passed away, Deng Yingchao insisted on following his last wishes, personally holding her husband's urn, taking it on the plane, and scattering the ashes to the motherland that he loved and worked for all his life.
**After his death, Deng Yingchao guarded her husband's favorite begonia flower and the love between the two of them.
On July 11, 1992, Deng Yingchao died, and according to her will, people used the urn containing ***'s ashes to transport her urn to Haihe and threw the ashes in one place.
The Si people have gone, and the mountains and rivers are sad together.
** In his life with Deng Yingchao, although he has no biological heirs, all the children in China are their biological flesh and blood, which I believe no one can object.
In the last few days of his life, ** once said to Deng Yingchao"Xiaochao, I have a lot of words in my stomach that I haven't said, but now it's too late. ”
Deng Yingchao replied"I also have a lot to say, and it's too late now. ”
The begonias are still in full bloom, but the people who watched the flowers are gone.
60-year-old Deng Yingchao once wrote a poem to *** during the Duanyang Festival: Husband and wife are fortunate to be old, infinitely affectionate in danger, accompanied by few opportunities, and revolutionary friendship for a long time.
This poem is the most apt description of the relationship between the husband and wife.
