One day in 1978, a jeep drove abruptly into a small village in the middle of nowhere. A few minutes later, the jeep stopped in front of a poor old farmer's house.
The old farmer Zhanhui was basking in the sun under the eaves and was confused by the jeep that suddenly appeared. But his wife Zhang Chunlian said amazingly: "It's still here when it's supposed to come!"
Just then, several well-dressed people appeared in front of them. One of them, who seemed to be a leader, said to Zhang Chunlian: "We doubt your identity, please come with us."
What, what do you say? Your mother is a peasant mother-in-law, how can she be a spy? But when he heard the letter, he had to believe it. In this letter, Zhang Chunlian recounted her experience, which was also a secret she had hidden for more than 30 years.
Zhang Chunlian is a tragic character with a bad fate. She lost her parents at a young age and was sold to a landlord to be abused and humiliated, but these ordeals did not break her will.
In order to change her fate, she coincidentally became a female spy of the Kuomintang, showing her talent and ability under the leadership of Mao Renfeng. Because of her outstanding appearance and excellent work performance, Zhang Chunlian was deeply appreciated and reused by Mao Renfeng, and the relationship between the two gradually changed from superiors and subordinates to lovers.
However, Zhang Chunlian's naivety made her mistakenly think that she had found a home, but she didn't know that she was just a usable chess piece in the hands of Mao Renfeng.
At the banquet, Dai Li took a fancy to the beautiful and young Zhang Chunlian at a glance, and Mao Renfeng understood the leader's intention and gave it to her without hesitation. At this time, Zhang Chunlian realized that she had always mispaid her feelings, but in order to survive, she could only bear the humiliation, and at the same time maneuvered between Mao Renfeng and Dai Li, becoming a "double-faced" female spy.
However, although she is a spy, Zhang Chunlian has never abandoned her conscience. She never harmed her compatriots, and even escaped from the underground party comrades who had secretly helped **.
During the War of Liberation, she also deliberately leaked the secrets of the military command in order to prevent our party from suffering heavy losses. Although Zhang Chunlian was already very careful, she was still discovered by Dai Li.
Angry, Dai Li, unable to accept the betrayal of the people around him, threatened to execute Zhang Chunlian. However, before he could do anything, he was killed in a plane crash, and Zhang Chunlian escaped.
After Dai Li's death, Zhang Chunlian was accepted by Mao Renfeng with the expectation of returning to Mao Renfeng's side. However, she didn't know Mao Renfeng's true intentions.
Mao Renfeng gave her a heavy task to sneak into Yan'an, promising to take her back in two years. However, two years have passed, and Zhang Chunlian has not been able to wait for Mao Renfeng's return.
When she saw the news that Mao Renfeng had fled the mainland in the newspaper, she realized that her heart was full of hatred for Mao Renfeng, but it was too late.
Zhang Chunlian survives in solitude in Shaanxi, and in order to prevent her identity from being exposed and punished, she tries her best to integrate into local life. By chance, she took refuge in a remote village. The villagers found her beautiful and virtuous, and introduced her to Zhanhui, a farmer who did her duty.
For this marriage, Zhang Chunlian and Zhanhui are both satisfied. After marriage, Zhang Chunlian worked hard in the housework, worked in the fields with Zhanhui, and gradually became a low-key Shaanxi woman.
Although I occasionally recall the past cheongsam life when I dream back at midnight, it is as far away as a dream.
Zhang Chunlian is a kind and down-to-earth woman, after marrying Zhanhui, she never had any evil thoughts, but gave birth to 8 children for Zhanhui, and spent a simple and happy family life together.
However, Zhang Chunlian still has concerns in her heart, worrying that her true identity will be exposed and endanger the safety of her family. Fortunately, during the many interrogations, she successfully fooled the test.
However, the world is unpredictable, and in 1978, Zhang Chunlian's identity was still discovered by the organization. After learning about this, although Zhanhui and the children were worried, they did not blame Zhang Chunlian for this, but they were afraid that she would be punished for this.
However, after the investigation and verification of the organization, Zhang Chunlian not only did not kill our party comrades, but on the contrary, she let go of the arrested underground party many times. In the end, the organization gave Zhang Chunlian leniency, so that she could live with peace of mind.
Zhang Chunlian's good deeds were finally rewarded, and her kindness accumulated blessings for herself, allowing her to survive her life smoothly. This tells us that doing good deeds will eventually be rewarded, otherwise, sooner or later, we will be punished.
