In October 1977, in the Fang Zhimin Martyrs Cemetery shrouded in golden afterglow, an old man with a face full of vicissitudes walked slowly with the support of his daughter - this person was Huang Wei, who was the first of the Kuomintang.
He staggered to the tomb of the martyr Fang Zhimin, bowed his head deeply, several lines of hot tears slid down his cheeks, and he choked up and whispered: "Brother Fang, I'm coming to see you." ”
Recalling the past, Huang Wei said bitterly: "It's because I didn't listen to your teachings, I really regret it, and I disappointed you." With that, tears welled up again.
The daughter has never seen her father so sad, and she has a strong interest in the relationship between the two and silently accompanies her.
Huang Wei sat quietly in front of Fang Zhimin's tomb for a long time, and gradually as night fell, his daughter helped him up again, and he was still reluctant to leave when he left.
After returning to the residence, the daughter asked about Fang Zhimin's story, and Huang Weicai told the story of the long-sealed past, and the daughter finally understood how her father said the ...... of "living up to Fang Zhimin's expectations".
They first met at Jiangxi Provincial Fourth Normal College.
That day, Fang Zhimin was waiting in line at the cafeteria to eat, and he noticed a student reading a book quietly in the corner, completely undisturbed by the noisy environment.
Fang Zhimin was admitted to the school at the age of 15 with excellent academic achievements, and it was the first time he met such a calm and calm student, so he immediately stepped forward to say hello: "Hello, my name is Fang Zhimin." ”
That student is Huang Wei, who is four years younger than him, Huang Wei lost his father when he was a teenager and was raised by his mother with hard work**. In order to comfort his mother, he studied hard and was finally admitted to the Jiangxi Provincial Fourth Normal School. This is where the lives of these two strangers begin to intersect.
From that day on, they gradually became acquainted, and Huang Wei, despite his older age, had a withdrawn personality and seemed a little out of place, so he had few friends on campus. Seeing Huang Wei studying alone in a foreign land, Fang Zhimin took good care of him like a brother. Huang Wei also often asked Fang Zhimin for advice, and once, when his work won an award in an intramural competition, he was eager to share the joy with others, and when he walked into Fang Zhimin's room, he found that he was concentrating on reading. Huang Wei walked over and asked curiously, "Brother Fang, what are you reading with such concentration?" ”
Fang Zhimin took the cover of the book and showed it to Huang Wei, only to see that the three big characters of "New Youth" were printed on it. Huang Wei asked puzzledly: "May I ask what book this is?" ”
Fang Zhimin patiently replied: "This is an influential publication in my country today, advocating science and democracy, and ruthlessly criticizing the feudal ideological system. ”
Huang Wei continued to ask: "Can this kind of book be read in school?" ”
Fang Zhimin replied with a smile: "The teachers encouraged us to learn more and see more and broaden our horizons. ”
