Foreword
**'s youngest daughter Li Ne, as a child who has been with him for the longest time, has received a lot of love from him, but Li Ne also has her own troubles.
After a failed marriage, in 1985, Li Ne finally found his life partner, and this is thanks to the "matchmaker" Li Yinqiao.
1. Li Yinqiao and Han Guixin's "matchmaker" is ***
Li Yinqiao has been the guardian of *** for 15 years, and when he first came to the chairman's side, he was a little "reluctant." ”
When he was a teenager, Li Yinqiao studied art in Wudang Mountain, and he had a good kung fu. After the Lugou Bridge Incident, he resolutely joined the army with the enthusiasm of going to the battlefield to kill the enemy bravely and became a soldier of the Eighth Route Army.
He was only 11 years old at the time. At such an age, he could not go to the battlefield, so he was arranged to do some duty work in the rear. In a flash, Li Yinqiao has grown into a 19-year-old boy, he is still in charge of service, but he has never forgotten his dream.
However, many things always backfire. In 1947, he was placed next to *** and became ***'s guard. In Li Yinqiao's heart, he respects him very much, and how happy he is to be able to work by his side.
But when he is young, he only yearns for the battlefield ahead, he understands the nostalgia of ***, once he stays by the chairman's side for a long time and has feelings, it is not easy to leave.
Therefore, when he heard the news, Li Yinqiao refused. **'s attitude is also very resolute: "Don't think about others, I want him." * said to Wang Dongxing and others who came to report.
So Li Yinqiao came to ***'s side. ** is not an unreasonable person, when he learned that Li Yinqiao thought of the army's wishes, he and Li Yinqiao reached a "gentleman's agreement", borrowing him for half a year, and then letting him go after half a year.
Soon the half-year period has arrived, ** fulfilled his promise and decided to let Li Yinqiao go, but he didn't expect that this time Li Yinqiao was reluctant to go. So the two agreed to set another half a year to see if *** defeated Hu Zongnan before leaving.
Half a year later, there was already a deep relationship between the two, and no one was willing to leave anyone, so *** planned to borrow Li Yinqiao for another half a yearAt that time, Li Yinqiao didn't want to go anymore, and he was contributing to the country by protecting him by his side.
In this way, Li Yinqiao stayed by ***'s side for a long time and became his chief guard.
** Concerned about Li Yinqiao very much, and when he reached the marriageable age, he found a suitable candidate for him.
When his daughter Li Ne was seven years old, a girl named Han Guixin, who graduated from high school, came to take care of Li Ne and taught her to read and write.
**Seeing that Han Guixin was a quiet and delicate girl, and Li Yinqiao was a fellow countryman, she became a "matchmaker".
Yinqiao, is it your fellow countryman! This is called fate, shake hands! He said to Li Yinqiao.
Later, he said to Han Guixin: "Xiao Han, he is Li Yinqiao, the leader of my guard group, and he is also a person from Ping'an, and he is also the leader of our party group. From now on, you will be under his leadership, and you will discuss more things together. ”
After Li Yinqiao and Han Guixin had some work contacts, they had a good impression of each other, of course, they didn't think about the direction of love between men and women.
What do you think of Xiao Han? * Asked Li Yinqiao secretly once.
Not bad. Li Yinqiao said what he felt in his heart and didn't think much about it.
Hearing such an answer, I was very satisfied. He said mildly, "Then you can get in touch with each other more and learn more." Seeing that Li Yinqiao was a little embarrassed, he continued, "Talk more, care more about each other, and help each other more." ”
Later, after getting along for a long time, Li Yinqiao and Han Guixin had already been in love, but they had not yet pierced the last layer of "window paper".
One day in 1948, Han Guixin and Li Yinqiao went to *** and asked to buy new woolen yarn to knit woolen pants for him.
Please work harder and mend my sweater and pants so that I can wear them. "The ***, who has always been thrifty, does not agree to buy new wool.
Seeing that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, the two planned to leave, but at this time, *** stopped them and said leisurely: "How old is Li Yinqiao this year." "21 years old," Li Yinqiao replied.
Then *** smiled and said to Han Guixin: "I remember that you should be 19 years old, right?" ”
Before the two could react to what was going on, they continued, "That's good, you should help each other more." ”
The smart Han Guixin had already understood the meaning of the chairman's words, but Li Yinqiao was still a little wooden in this regard.
The next day, *** talked to Li Yinqiao alone, and he said encouragingly like a father: ".Don't be feudal, you talk about me in favor. Don't rely on matchmakers, the guards of ** should be self-reliant.
Hearing ***'s encouragement, Li Yinqiao was very grateful, but he still needed an "opportunity".
Soon after, Li Yinqiao received a letter from his hometown, saying that he wanted to find him a partner. Li Yinqiao took the letter and habitually found ***
** Looking at Li Yinqiao's embarrassed look, he laughed and said, "Yinqiao, you are just too honest, you won't ask Xiao Han?" She's more educated than you, so do you have an excuse to ask her to write a reply for you? ”
After such a little dialing, Li Yinqiao suddenly opened his mind, he took the letter for Han Guixin to see, observed her expression, and asked tentatively: "What do you think?" If ......If it's not suitable, just push it off, right? ”
Then, then push off the ......Han Guixin blushed and said.
Seeing this scene, Li Yinqiao continued to probe: "Can you write a reply letter for me?" You're more educated than me, and the chairman said help each other, right? ”
Han Guixin said shyly, "You are so smart......You're stupid, too. I didn't say yes to so many people looking for me, so I'm just waiting for you to ......”
Li Yinqiao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Otherwise, I would be stupid, it was the chairman who taught me this clever method, and it was he who asked me to ask you to write a reply." ”
In this way, two fiery hearts collided together. **After learning about this, he happily took Li Yinqiao for a walk, and he encouraged: "Talk about it, Yinqiao, talk about it." ”
After that, Li Yinqiao and Han Guixin wrote a marriage application report, and soon the report was approved, and they were married. But since the war was not over, the marriage ceremony was simple.
After entering Beijing, ** insisted on holding a make-up wedding for them: "In the past, it was limited by conditions, but now it is better, you can choose a date and make up the wedding ceremony." ”
Soon, they had a wedding on May Fourth Youth Day, and when they ate the candy sent by the two newlyweds, their hearts were also sweet.
Second, the daughter of ** is also "worried about getting married".
In 1940, the 47-year-old *** welcomed his youngest daughter, Li Ne. **Most of his life has been filled with the smell of gunpowder, at this time he is more than half a hundred years old, and the scene of his children and daughters on his knees makes him want to go.
However, due to various reasons, his children were not with him at that time. Li Ne's birth made this revolutionary enjoy the happiness of being an ordinary father.
He loved his little daughter very much, and often took her with him, walked with her, played games with her, taught her to read and write, and learned to be civilized and polite.
But *** is also very strict with his daughter's teaching, he does not allow his children to be special, and often teaches her to be a man with her tail between her legs.
Li Ne is very obedient, very smart, excellent in academics, and like her classmates at school, she does not enjoy any special treatment, and many classmates do not know that she is the child of a great leader.
In 1959, Li Ne was admitted to the Department of History of Peking University. After coming to the university, Li Ne was in a state of depression, and under the special growth environment, Li Ne instinctively had some loftiness and arrogance.
But she felt that she was inferior to other classmates, so she immersed herself in hard study, immersed in the world of knowledge, and did not have too much contact with the outside world.
Over time, Li Ne became less talkative and had few friends around him. She has always been low-key, and she doesn't know how to dress herself in bright clothes, and always wears gray or blue**. Therefore,
Her marriage also became a problem.
In 1970, at the age of 30, Li Ne was still alone. This year, she went to Jinggangshan to work, where Li Ne met Xu Zhiming, a waiter at the Beidaihe Management Office of the ** General Office.
Once when doing farm work, Xu Zhiming took the initiative to help and smiled at her. Since then, the two have had a lot of contacts. Xu Zhiming's appearance relieved Li Ne's inner sorrow.
After getting along, there was a relationship between the two. One night, Li Ne and Xu Zhiming were walking on the path, and Li Ne boldly said his heart: "Let's go forever!" ”
Xu Zhiming's first reaction was to refuse, because the family gap between him and Li Ne was too far, but through contact, he found that Li Ne was very sincere and kind, and he also liked her, so the two of them were together.
Regarding his daughter's marriage, ** once asked not to find ** children. Therefore, he was very satisfied with Xu Zhiming and quickly agreed to his daughter's marriage.
After that, Li Ne and Xu Zhiming held a wedding, and ** entrusted someone to send a wedding gift, a large white package. When everyone opened the mysterious package, they were all taken aback, **The "dowry" for their daughter was actually a set of 39 volumes of "The Complete Works of Marx and Engels".
Li Ne and Xu Zhiming's wedding was very simple, and only a dozen people attended the wedding. The cave room is two ordinary bungalows, one of which has a double bed, which is actually made up of two single beds, covered with thin mattresses and cotton sheets; The outside room has a table, two chairs, and other simple furniture.
Looking around, the whole room did not have a single word "hi" posted. The wedding banquet was held outside the new house, and a few bottles of wine and a few dishes were all there was to the banquet.
Li Ne adheres to her father's usual low-profile and frugal living habits, which can be seen from her simple wedding.
After getting married, sweet love met trivial things in life, and Li Ne and Xu Zhiming gradually realized that there was a big gap between the two of them in terms of personality, thought, culture and spiritual pursuit.
Although Li Ne is introverted, she dares to express her thoughts. After a few months of marriage, she thought that neither of them was happy in this marriage, so she proposed "separation" with Xu Zhiming, just like she had bravely confessed at the beginning.
It happened that Xu Zhiming was sent to a university in Hebei Province to study at that time, and the two "separated". After the "separation", Li Ne gave birth to a son and named him Li Xiaoyu. When Li Xiaoyu was one year old, Li Ne and Xu Zhiming officially went through the divorce procedures.
After the divorce, Li Ne lived alone with her children. Winters in Beijing are unusually cold, and people stock up on cabbage, briquettes, etc. at home when winter comes.
As a single mother, Li Ne did all the hard work, pulling cabbage, buying rice, and carrying briquettes in the cold wind on a tricycle. She also manages daily housework such as laundry and bedding. At that time, Li Xiaoning was still young, and Li Ne had to take the children to and from school.
Li Neqiang supported his weak body and carried all the burden on his shoulders.
But fortunately, in such a difficult day, Li Yinqiao and his wife often came to accompany her, and her heart got a little comfort.
3. Li Yinqiao and his wife became Li Ne's "matchmaker".
In 1962, Li Yinqiao, who had worked beside *** for 15 years, left Zhongnanhai, Beijing, to work in the Tianjin Municipal Public Security Bureau.
When parting, ** instructed: "After I die, you will go to the grave to see me once a year......."Li Yinqiao fulfilled his promise and visited him every year.
Of course, Li Yinqiao is also very worried about Li Ne's situation.
When Li Yinqiao came to ***, Li Ne was still one.
A six- or seven-year-old child, he can be said to have grown up watching Li Ne.
Back then, when Li Ne was studying at Peking University, the school was dozens of miles away from home. Every time she came home from school, it was too dark and the road was far away, Li Yinqiao was a little worried, so she sent someone to drive her home without telling her. Li Ne was weak and often sick, and Li Yinqiao would secretly send her milk powder, biscuits and other food.
But Li Yinqiao did this, and was severely criticized by ***: "Other people's children are not children? Other people's children can go home on their own, why can't my child go home on their own? This has a bad impact, and my child can't be special. ”
Back then, Li Yinqiao risked being criticized by *** to send her cookies, but now when Li Ne really needs help, how can he stand idly by.
When Li Necai gave birth to a child and lived in the hospital, Li Yinqiao and his wife went to see her.
"Yinqiao, we have to go and see Li Ne, she must be difficult now, if we don't go to see it, I'm sorry for the chairman. Han Guixin said to Li Yinqiao.
So they came to Changping Hospital, where Li Ne was. "Aunt Xiao Han, Uncle Yinqiao. Li Ne was very happy to see the two of them, and chatted in the corridor.
Later, Li Ne took the child to live in Taifusi Street in Beijing, and Han Guixin often visited her. The scene of Li Ne's emaciated body dragging her emaciated body and her son to carry food home was deeply etched in her mind.
She said to Li Yinqiao sadly: "Yinqiao, the chairman cared so much about us when he was alive and helped us get married and start a family. Now that the chairman is gone, let's care about Li Ne as much as the chairman cares about us. ”
Li Yinqiao and his wife thought together, and he replied: "I think so too, we should help her build a new home." ”
When he kindly arranged a marriage for Li Yinqiao, he never thought that many years later, Li Yinqiao and his wife would also help their daughter get married.
Immediately afterwards, Han Guixin and Li Yinqiao began to secretly look for suitable candidates for Li Ne. In 1984, their comrade-in-arms Wang Jingqing came to visit Li Yinqiao and his wife, and Han Guixin's eyes lit up.
Wang Jingqing participated in the revolution in 1940 and served as a janitor in the ** Guard Regiment, and later became a guard of the *** Guard Corps.
And Wang Jingqing, who is nearly fifty years old, is also single, and he and his wife chose to divorce due to perennial quarrels. What's more critical is that Wang Jingqing at this moment also wants to form a family again.
After Han Guixin and Li Yinqiao learned about Wang Jingqing's experience, they felt that he and Li Ne couldn't be right again. So he introduced Li Ne to him.
About Li Ne, Wang Jingqing knows about it, he is 13 years older than Li Ne, and as a soldier of the ** garrison regiment, he even watched Li Ne grow up.
When Li Yinqiao and his wife explained to him that they wanted to introduce Li Ne to him, he didn't say anything, but he was willing to do so from the bottom of his heart.
After that, he followed Li Yinqiao and his wife to Li Ne's house several times, and they all had a good impression of each other. A year later, they got married.
Finally, with the help of Li Yinqiao and Han Guixin, Li Ne entered a happy marriage.
Wang Jingqing and Li Ne have common interests and hobbies, he can write and paint, and participated in the calligraphy class of old cadres in the ** General Office, Li Ne is also very good at calligraphy and painting, and there are many common languages between the two. Naturally, there are no disagreements and quarrels when getting along.
In addition, Wang Jingqing also took care of all the housework, of course, Li Ne would also do some small housework, but with Wang Jingqing, she didn't need to work so hard anymore.
Wang Jingqing is also very meticulous and considerate of Li Ne's care. Li Ne is not in good health and often needs to go to the hospital to see a doctor, so Wang Jingqing went to the hospital early in the morning to line up**.
Han Guixin and Li Yinqiao often went to Li Ne's house as guests, and once they ate the cold noodles and buckwheat noodles and grilled cakes made by Wang Jingqing. Han Guixin said in surprise: "He can also make cold noodles and grilled cakes?" ”
He can do anything, and I am happy to live with Lao Wang. Li Ne said happily, "He can do anything, I can't do anything, he is much better than me." ”
While speaking, Li Ne showed some shyness. Seeing that she is living so happily now, Han Guixin is really happy for her, and Li Yinqiao also sighed: I have lived up to the love and care for their husband and wife.
In addition to Li Yinqiao and his wife, Li Ne's living situation is also very concerned about the widow Wang Guangmei, because they have been neighbors with the Mao family for many years. She grew up watching Li Ne grow up.
And Wang Jingqing once served as a *** guard, which can also be said to be "kissing and kissing".
When she learned that Li Yinqiao and his wife had matched this beautiful marriage, she said to them excitedly: "You have done a great deed. For the chairman's sake, it should help. ”
Li Yinqiao and his wife's help to Li Ne shows how much they love ***, and it is with reverence and longing for *** that they have such a deep bond with his children.
