Passed awayyear, close to the body, Deng Yingchao's tears in his eyes: Enlai has a lifetime of pain.
When I was studying at Nankai University, ** once described my father's thoughts with affectionate strokes in an essay titled "Trying to Describe the Things in the Winter Vacation".
"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and the sound of firecrackers in every house is our traditional way of celebrating," he said. Southerners gather on Chinese New Year's Eve and the whole family gathers around the table to share dinner, which is known as the New Year's Eve meal.
Do northerners have such customs? ......It's been a long time since I've heard my father's call. When I think back to the good times I spent at my father's knees, I can feel deep sadness even if I don't read the chapter of Tate.
Especially on nights like these, I burst into tears and couldn't sleep all night. This text of just a few hundred words is full of ***'s deep longing for his father and his true feelings about his homesick father when he was young.
In his life, his father not only played the role of raising him, but also had a profound impact on his growth in the process of embarking on the revolutionary road and exploring the future path of China.
Father's adventure" :* ancestral home of Shaoxing, and the saying that "no Shao can not become a ya" is spread in the family. His father and grandfather were both masters, and the family tradition left a deep imprint on him.
The master clan attaches great importance to the cultivation of fame and descendants, which has become the cornerstone of his personality and an important reason why he embarked on the road of revolution. Mother Wan Dong'er is kind, capable, and has a strong personality that has deeply affected ***
She taught him to glorify his ancestors and not disgrace his family. The death of his two mothers was a big blow to ***, but he eventually grew up with the help of his uncle's relatives and relatives.
The traditional education and humanistic genes of the family have imperceptibly influenced *** Under the education of the family and the party, he gradually grew into an excellent communist, politician and military strategist.
At the time of the survival of the nation, he threw himself into the revolutionary torrent and was supported by his father Zhou Shaogang. Objectively speaking, Zhou Shaogang himself was also a very assertive person, he cared about current affairs, and learned about the Communist Party and the activities of its leaders through reading newspapers and periodicals.
Zhou Shaogang's family background and political concepts have had a profound impact on ***.
In the Chinese Communist Party under the White Terror, ** was an important core member, and it was also the target of Chiang Kai-shek's heavy reward for arrest. After the "April 12" counter-revolutionary coup d'état in 1927, Zhou Shaogang has been accompanying his son *** in Shanghai to conduct secret contact and communication for him.
At the beginning of 1931, a number of traitors appeared in the Communist Party, and they were repeatedly ordered to take decisive measures to protect the safety and work of the Party. Zhou Shaogang lived in his second sister-in-law's house at No. 44 Yong'anli, Sichuan North Road, Shanghai, and continued to conduct secret communications for his son Enlai.
Although he felt that he couldn't do anything big, as long as he could help his son, he felt a lot more relieved. In 1938, the National Anti-Japanese United Front was formed, and ** worked in Wuhan.
In January, he wrote to his father asking him to come to Wuhan to live with him. On the day my father arrived in Wuhan, he attended the second council of the All-China Association of Literary and Art Circles to Resist the Enemy.
At the dinner table, with tears in his eyes, he said bitterly: "Hello everyone, I am going to be absent today, because my old father will arrive in Hankou at ten o'clock tonight." The violent enemy has caused us losses and misfortunes.
The violent enemy also forced my old father to go south. The parting of life and death was all due to the aggression of the violent enemy, but the parting of life and death has deepened the unity and ...... of our peopleHis sincere words touched everyone present with his sincere father-son love.
In the autumn of 1940, Zhou Shaogang was transferred to Chongqing, and since then he has been staying in Chong**yan Village. Due to his advanced age, he did not want to rest, so he did some small work of guarding the door and sweeping the yard, and got along very well with the staff around him.
When he learned the truth about his father's death, he was devastated. It was July 1942, his father Zhou Shaogang suddenly fell ill in the Hongyan Village office, and ten days later, he left this world forever after a high fever.
At that time, ** was recuperating in the hospital, and his body was still very weak because it had only been two days after the operation. After learning of his father's illness, the staff decided to hide the news for the time being in order to protect his physical and mental health.
In the letter to Deng Yingchao, ** described in detail his father's illness and treatment methods, as well as matters that need attention. Although he has less time with his father, he has always cared about his father's health, no matter how big or small, he always takes care of him.
However, in the afternoon of the same day, a young newsboy accidentally revealed that his father had died. After hearing the news, ***, who was already in a serious condition, turned even paler, and his body was so weak that he could barely stand.
With everyone's support, he returned to the office.
** Crying incessantly, rarely angry at Deng Yingchao: "How can you hide such a big thing from me?" If others don't understand me, don't you know me? ”
Deng Yingchao was also very uncomfortable, she apologized to her husband while crying. Later, after Dong Biwu learned about it, he hurriedly came forward to clarify for Deng Yingchao: "This is decided by the organization, and it is also out of your physical considerations." ”
After hearing the explanation, ** also understood the good intentions of everyone and the organization, and with the grief of losing his father, he sent a telegram to *** who was far away in Yan'an: "After returning, I learned that my father had died, and I was grieved and hated all day long, and I should be buried the next day." ”
**Call back immediately: "Zun Weng passed away, and my colleagues in the Politburo expressed deep condolences. Shang Wangjie mourns, and he has recovered from a serious illness. Expect to rest more and pay attention to the expectation of saving time at work in the future. ”
On July 14, four days after Zhou Shaogang's death, Deng Yingchao and others held a simple memorial ceremony in Chongyan Village, calling to mourn, and many Kuomintang dignitaries such as Chiang Kai-shek sent letters or went to Chongqing to pay tribute.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, in view of the fact that Zhou Shaogang had done a lot of work for the revolution during his lifetime, the Chongqing Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China moved his coffin to the Chongqing Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery. **After knowing about it, he begged the local people to move back.
In 1964, Tong Xiaopeng, the director of the office, was ordered to go to Chongqing to move the tomb of his father Zhou Shaogang out of the Chongqing Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery and buried it halfway up a nearby nameless hill.
**Before his death, he rarely talked about his father with anyone, and in the impression of his nephews and nieces, ** only mentioned his father Zhou Shaogang twice. In August 1964, perhaps because of his father's handling of the relocation of the grave, he mentioned his father in a chat with relatives, saying: "I sympathize with my father. ”
In 1974, when he was about to be admitted to the hospital due to illness, his nephew Zhou Bingjun came to Beijing on a business trip and made a special trip to the West Flower Hall to visit him.
He is very honest, and his monthly salary in his life does not exceed 30 yuan. But he had never done anything bad in his life, and he had covered for me. ”
After the death of ***, Deng Yingchao found a very old small black leather wallet when sorting out his belongings, which contained a ** that looked very old. This made Deng Yingchao immediately think of the bits and pieces with ***, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
In order to comfort her, **'s niece Zhou Bingde often came to visit her and chatted with her. Once, Zhou Bingde saw Deng Yingchao holding the old black leather wallet in his hand.
Deng Yingchao carefully put the wallet on the table, stretched out his hands to pull Zhou Bingde to sit down, stared at the black wallet for a long time, sighed, picked it up, and said to his niece: "This is a relic of your uncle that I sorted out."
In the past, in order to protect the party's documents, your uncle put them in this little black folder. In peacetime, your uncle was reluctant to throw it away, so he put it in the safe, and there was a copy of your grandfather's ** in it.
Now, I'm going to give it to you as a souvenir. After Deng Yingchao finished speaking, he took out the yellowed ** from his wallet, and Zhou Bingde saw that there were four words "Daddy's Portrait" written by the Prime Minister himself behind the **.
Deng Yingchao knew that ** hid the pain that he couldn't let go of all his life in this little black wallet. In his father's later life, he was tired of running around for the country, getting together less with his father and leaving more, and finally failed to fulfill his filial piety to his father, which became the pain of his life.
**Always abide by the ten family rules and attach importance to the handling of family relationships. He once defined his birth as a "feudal family" and grew up with the help of his family relatives.
He was grateful to his fourth uncle Zhou Yigeng for his kindness, and this trip to the Northeast had a profound impact on him and helped him establish a patriotic and progressive ideology. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he always cared about the people in his family, especially those who had helped him.
However, he never used his position to find errands for his relatives, and all expenses came from his own salary. ** The way of dealing with family kinship has won people's respect and admiration.
** Emphasizing that Communists should be materialists and that family ties should not be relied upon, but should not be ignored either. Therefore, he strictly abides by the ten family rules he has set, such as the younger generation can only visit when they go to Beijing on a business trip, relatives need to pay for accommodation in Beijing, and they need to buy tickets to enter the theater.
Even if it is a request for his family, he does not treat them equally, does not allow him to use the bus, does not invite guests and gifts, and does not engage in specialization. In the early 50s of the last century, ** deliberately refused to pick up the only old man in the family, the eighth aunt, reflecting his strictness and fairness.
Once, the secretary violated the rules by providing a pick-up service for two juniors in the family, ** was very angry about it, severely punished them and demanded double payment. He truly walked the talk, and he has always adhered to these principles throughout his decades of work for the country.
** The prime minister has always considered issues from the perspective of national interests and people's interests, and in order to alleviate land tensions, he resolutely opposed the renovation of ancestral graves in his hometown, and personally took the lead in leveling ancestral graves and turning the land into arable land for farmers to cultivate.
He did not leave ashes during his lifetime, but sprinkled them all over the motherland, setting an example and showing the noble quality of honesty and selflessness. He is a role model for countless people.
