Chen Geng wants to marry his sister*** Xilian: Where did the beautiful sister come from?
In 1943, when Chen Geng and *** were repairing the airport in Yan'an, one day on the way home, Chen Geng suddenly said that he wanted to marry his sister to him. ** but rejected his offer with a smile.
So, why did Chen Geng say such a thing? And why did you refuse? Did they end up together? Chen Geng and *** met during the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Red Fourth Front Army, when Chen Geng was already the commander of the Red 12th Division, and *** was only a company commander of the Red 10th Division.
Although there is a certain gap between their identities and ages, and their personalities are also very different, their honesty and tolerance make them good partners with "like-minded interests".
**In 1943, the ace unit of the Eighth Route Army led by him has become famous for fighting tough battles and vicious battles. Due to his poor background and lack of education, he decided to go to Yan'an ** Party School for systematic further study to improve his leadership skills.
At that time, Chen Geng was also in Yan'an and became a classmate with ***. The two have a close relationship, and Chen Geng often takes *** to various departments to walk around, so that they have the opportunity to contact the leaders of various departments.
**Very honest, as long as Chen Geng invites him, he will follow without hesitation and never shirk.
Image source network: The two found that there was a jujube tree and an apple tree planted in front of the house of **, which bore a lot of fruit. Chen Geng had the idea of fruit, but he didn't have the guts.
* Unbeknownst to him, they had their sights on his fruit trees. Chen Geng came to his home in the name of studying, in fact, he wanted to find out the terrain. Enthusiastically show them the way every time.
After a few times, Chen Geng figured out the terrain, so he planned a good idea and took the *** action. When they came to the door of the ** house, Chen Geng said, "Little brother, you go knock on the door." ”
** Knocking on the door obediently, Chen Geng was busy using branches or stones under the tree to make a sound, so that the fruit fell all over the ground. Then he went to knock on the door of **'s house, and as soon as he entered the house, he pretended to be surprised and said, "What a coincidence, Brother Xilian is also there." ”
Chen Geng and *** are not good at lying, but they still try their best to cooperate with Chen Geng and play the role needed in the play. When the study is over, ** always personally sends them to the door, at this time Chen Geng will wittily say: "Oh, boss, a lot of fruit has fallen under the tree." ”
Hearing this, ** always said generously: "You guys pick it up and eat it." So, Chen Geng and *** unceremoniously bent down to fill the pockets of their clothes with fruits, and until all the pockets were full, they said goodbye and left contentedly.
These fruits can be eaten for several days, and they thought that ** did not notice their small movements, so they began to plan how to "trick" more fruits to eat next time.
In 1943, Chen Geng and *** were sent to build an airport. One day, they bumped into **. When I asked them why they hadn't come to visit recently, it turned out that he had left some fruit for them.
Chen Geng and *** both said that they have been very busy with their studies recently. However, ** ridiculed*** that your sister is not suitable. ”
Chen Geng and *** are good brothers, and they often go out together and go home together. They are responsible for bulldozing the ground and have to push a wheelbarrow back and forth every day.
Chen Geng suggested that they push each other along, which can not only reduce the burden, but also improve efficiency. **Agreed, I thought it was good for the first few days, but then I found that I was tired to death.
Because I was already very tired when I went home, I had to push Chen Geng, and I was even more exhausted. After returning home, ** is often too tired to move, but Chen Geng is still full of energy.
** and Chen Geng decided to take turns pushing each other back. In a rotation, Chen Geng looked at the tired and sweaty *** and suddenly made a joke, saying that if *** was not married, he could marry his beautiful sister to him.
Knowing that Chen Geng was joking, because he knew that Chen Geng was married and had two younger sisters. So he also joked back, saying that he couldn't wait for Chen Geng's beautiful sister, unless he waited until the next life.
The speed of Chen Geng's airport repair was unexpected, and it was surprising that ** really married Chen Geng's sister and became his brother-in-law. In August 1949, ** was commanding the battle to liberate the southwest in Wuhan, and suddenly one day, Chen Geng came to his headquarters with a very beautiful woman.
As soon as they met, Chen Geng directly pointed at the woman and said to ***: "Brother, see if she is beautiful?" The woman had a round face, very big eyes, and was very beautiful, and nodded in praise: "Very beautiful." ”
However, Chen Geng leaned into *** and whispered to him: "What do you think of being her wife?" His wife, Sug, died of illness in the spring of 1948, leaving behind a son named Heiwazi.
Although *** thought of Chen Geng's character of liking jokes, he still doubted whether Chen Geng was joking.
**Laughing, "Your sister? I was fooled a few years ago, and now this deception doesn't work for me! Chen Geng said seriously: "This is true, my sister's name is Wang Xuanmei." ”
Wang Xuanmei is the younger sister of Chen Geng's first wife, Wang Genying, and he regards her as his own sister. In 1923, Chen Geng and Wang Genying studied at night school at the same time, and Chen Geng had a secret affection for her at that time, but he never had the opportunity to express it.
In 1927, Chen Geng had just returned to Wuhan from the Soviet Union, and a month later, Chiang Kai-shek launched the "April 12" counter-revolutionary coup d'état and began to be a member of the Communist Party. The Communist Party decided to convene the "Fifth National Congress" in Wuhan, and Chen Geng was in charge of security issues during the congress.
At this time, Chen Geng met Wang Genying again. She was a representative of workers from Shanghai, embraced progressive ideas, led demonstrations by 1,000 women workers, and participated in armed uprisings.
During the conference, Chen Geng made up his mind to confess to her when he saw Wang Genying for the first time.
Chen Geng confessed to Wang Genying with three notes, although they were all pasted on the wall of the venue by Wang Genying, but this love finally blossomed with the help of *** and Deng Yingchao.
Chen Geng and Wang Genying's common revolutionary beliefs brought them together and fought together for their ideals. During the Nanchang Uprising, Chen Geng was secretly sent to Shanghai for recuperation after being injured, and Wang Genying accompanied him.
Their love goes through all kinds of trials and tribulations, but eventually comes together. Their love story teaches us that true love requires strong faith and selfless giving.
Wang Genying and Chen Zhifei chose to live together in order to better take care of Xiao Zhifei and integrate into the Shanghai community. Wang Xuanmei has been following her sister and brother-in-law since she was a child, and although she was still young at the time, she was already aware of their life of often moving.
However, she was unaware of the precarious situation the family was in. It was not until March 8, 1939, when the Japanese army swept the southern part of Hebei, that Wang Genying retreated with the troops, and found that the baggage containing documents and ** had been left behind.
Despite being dissuaded from going back, she insisted on returning to the village, where she unfortunately met the Japanese at the entrance of the village and died under the enemy's bayonets. After learning the news, Chen Geng wrote in his diary: "March 8 is a day that I can never forget, and it is also my saddest day. ”
After the death of Chen Geng and Wang Genying, Chen Geng has always wanted to find his son Chen Zhifei, but has never received any news. It wasn't until 1946 that an underground worker contacted Chen Zhifei and told him that his father Chen Geng wanted to take him to live with him, and Chen Zhifei learned that his father was still alive.
Wang Xuanmei heard that Chen Zhifei was going to live with her sister Wang Genying, so she happily took her nephew to hurry together. However, halfway through, Wang Xuanmei learned the news that her sister had died.
After Chen Geng saw the two of them, he was full of emotion, and finally saw his son again, and also saw Wang Xuanmei, whom he once regarded as his own sister. However, Wang Xuanmei almost didn't recognize the slightly vicissitudes of the middle-aged man in front of her as the young and energetic brother-in-law who loved to joke.
Chen Zhifei and Wang Xuanmei's early life was not good, they worked as newspaper boys, polished shoes, and did not receive a long period of education.
Wang Xuanmei, Chen Geng's younger sister, under Chen Geng's careful advice, she went to the School of Medicine of Northern University for further study. Chen Geng has always been concerned about this little sister, and often warned her in letters: "Don't fall in love at school." ”
Wang Xuanmei is also an obedient and good sister, as long as it is her brother-in-law, she is willing to obey. In 1949, Chen Geng helped Wang Xuanmei and *** match, so that they tied the knot at the wedding.
At the wedding, Chen Geng said happily: "Xilian and I are not only comrades-in-arms, classmates, but also 'brothers'. Now, we have become brothers-in-law again, and we can really be described as relatives in the revolutionary camp! ”
In 1999, Wang Xuanmei and *** ushered in their golden wedding anniversary. However, it is a pity that ** did not wait for the National Day and passed away on this day at the age of 85.
Wang Xuanmei's life has experienced twists and turns, and the loss of her partner at the age of 77 plunged her into deep pain. However, she was fortunate to have the comfort and companionship of her children.
Today, at the age of 100, although she lives in the bustling Beijing, her body is still healthy.
