The reason for this marriage is that the Wen family wants to choose a good cemetery in Shaoshan, and they need the consent of the local Mao family. Helplessly, feudal superstition prevailed, and the fate of the little girl became a sacrifice.

The sudden change made the young heart dazed and sad, she cried, made trouble, and gradually compromised.

Wen Qimei has a simple temperament, and after marrying into the Mao family, she is diligent and conscientious.

Mao Yichang went out to serve as a soldier, and the heavy responsibility of taking care of agricultural affairs fell on her shoulders. Wen Qimei actively operated, raised livestock, planted weeds, and worked hard to save money.

After giving birth, I don't feel at ease, so I take the baby back to my parents' home.
In the winter of 1893, when Wen Qimei's childbirth cry resounded through the Mao family, joy and worry were at the same time. The joy of the birth of her eldest son was replaced by Wen Qimei's strong anxiety - she knew that the first two children died before they reached adulthood, and she did not dare to hope that the third son would be spared.
After birth, she was held tightly in her arms by Wen Qimei, for fear that she would lose it accidentally. She invited a fortune teller to do divination, praying that this child with a different lifeline would grow up safely.
In the end, Wen Qimei took the baby back to her parents' house, and after a "thousand years of longevity" boulder, she let the stone be worshiped as her mother, and took the milk name "Shi San Yanzi" to pray for happiness. The Wen family regarded this grandson as the pearl of their palms, for fear that he would be wronged at all.

In 1917, Yue Yue went north to study, and Wen Qimei almost used the whole family to support his studies. Although the family was stretched, Wen Qimei never asked about those unattainable political ideals, she simply thought that if Yueyue persevered, she would be able to live a good life one day.
He died of illness at the age of 53, and he had no breath of life when he returned from the moon.
In 1919, Yueyue, who learned that Wen Qimei was sick, rushed home from Beijing. This became the only reunion between mother and son. Less than one year later, 53-year-old Wen Qimei died of illness in the old house in Shaoshan. By the time the letter arrived, the coffin had been two days old.
This sudden bad news made Yueyue grief-stricken. He cried bitterly in front of his mother's cold coffin, blaming himself for not being able to see him for the last time. Only then did he realize that his mother had never left Hunan in her life, and her life trajectory came to an end with the torrent of the times.
This incident quickly aroused discussion among many netizens on the Internet.

Some netizens pointed out: "Mao Yichang has strict requirements for the young chairman, and Wen Qimei is powerless, which is also the sadness of women in the old society." We must cherish the status of women in New China and cherish the memory of those mothers whose fate was tragic. ”
