Mao Xinyu's mother, Shao Hua, made a significant contribution to the Mao family, visiting and praising him.
Mao Anqing's wife is Shao Hua, a native of Changde, Hunan, and is also the daughter-in-law of the chairman.
The combination of Mao Anqing, Shao Hua and Mao Anqing benefited from the influence of his mother Zhang Wenqiu. Zhang Wenqiu, an early female revolutionary in our party, married Liu Qianchu, a member of the Communist Party, in the spring of 1927.
In April of the same year, the Fifth National Congress of the Communist Party of China was held in Wuhan, and Mr. and Mrs. ** and Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Wenqiu were responsible for the preparations for the meeting, so they met and became friends. Once, Zhang Wenqiu and his wife visited ***'s home, and Yang Kaihui warmly entertained them.
**Knowing that Zhang Wenqiu and his wife had just gotten married, he humorously said to them: "There are already two boys in our family, and this time Kaihui and I will not bless you with an early birth of a precious son like everyone else."
I hope you give birth to two girls, and we can be in-laws! ”
The birth of Mao Anying and Liu Siqi was a joke, but it became a reality many years later. In 1929, Zhang Wenqiu and Liu Qianchu were imprisoned, and after organizing rescue, Zhang Wenqiu was released from prison and gave birth to Liu Siqi on March 2, 1930.
Liu Qianchu died in prison to stick to his faith, and Zhang Wenqiu raised Liu Siqi alone. In 1937, Zhang Wenqiu was transferred to Yan'an to work, where he married Chen Zhenya, a veteran of the Red Army.
Chen Zhenya is a veteran Red Army who participated in the Pingjiang Uprising and is loyal to the party. In 1938, Zhang Wenqiu and Chen Zhenya gave birth to Chen Shaohua, who later became Shao Hua. However, in 1941, Chen Zhenya and Zhang Wenqiu wanted to take Shao Hua to the Soviet Union for medical treatment, but when they passed through Xinjiang, they were placed under house arrest by Sheng Shicai, along with other Communist Party members.
On June 13, 1941, Chen Zhenya was assassinated by Sheng Shicai's subordinates during his acceptance in Dihua City Hospital, Xinjiang, and Chen Zhenya sacrificed his life.
In order to protect her daughter's safety, Zhang Wenqiu changed her name to Zhang Shaohua. In order to further ensure the safety of her daughter, she changed Zhang Shaohua to Shao Hua, and the pronunciation of the two names is the same.
Since then, the mother and daughter have spent 5 years under house arrest in prison. It was not until 1946 that after the fall of Shengshi, our party launched a vigorous rescue operation, and finally released Shao Hua and Zhang Wenqiu and sent them back to Yan'an.
When Shao Hua, who was only 8 years old at the time, saw the chairman, the corners of the chairman's eyes moistened, he held Shao Hua's little hand tightly, and said lovingly: "Little comrade, you are welcome to come back!" ”
This was the first time Shao Hua met the chairman, and she did not know at that time that she would become a relative of the chairman, or even become the chairman's daughter-in-law. On October 15, 1949, the chairman's eldest son Mao Anying and Liu Siqi held a wedding in Zhongnanhai, Mao Anying was 27 years old and Liu Siqi was 19 years old.
Mao Anying, Liu Siqi and their families have had a heart-wrenching experience. 11-year-old Shao Hua's admiration for Mao Anying made the chairman like her very much, and even arranged for her to go to school and study.
However, Mao Anying's sudden death made the chairman grieved and could not sleep all night. In order to protect Liu Siqi, the news was delayed for a long time before it was told to her, which made both her and Shao Hua cry bitterly.
With excellent results, the young Shao Hua entered the Women's Affiliated High School of Normal University, and was admitted to the Beijing Women's No. 1 High School, and finally to the Chinese Department of Peking University. At this time, the chairman, who has the same hobby as her, is learning about classical literature and history.
This year, Mao Anqing was 36 years old, but his mental condition was not good due to injuries when he was young, and the sacrifice of his brother Mao Anying hit him deeply. In order to restore his spirits, he was sent to a hospital in Dalian, and wrote to him several times to encourage him.
During this period, Zhang Wenqiu felt sad because of her son-in-law's sacrifice, and in order to make *** happy, she decided to marry his family again. So, in 1959, Zhang Wenqiu took Liu Siqi and Shao Hua to Dalian to visit Mao Anqing, who was recuperating.
Zhang Wenqiu brought Shao Hua with him, and it seemed that he had plans to let her and Mao Anqing develop further. They had met several times before this and were familiar friends with each other.
Mao Anqing is usually like an ordinary person. During this time, they chatted, ate, and walked together, and Mao Anqing would tell Shao Hua about his experience in the Soviet Union, which made Shao Hua find it very interesting.
When walking, Mao Anqing would also thoughtfully put his coat on Shao Hua, which made her feel Mao Anqing's carefulness and gentleness. The topics of the two are getting richer and richer. Even when he returned to school, Shao Hua often wrote letters to Mao Anqing, and the relationship between the two became closer and closer.
When *** learned about this, he was very happy, and personally wrote a letter to Mao Anqing, encouraging him to get along with Shao Hua. Soon after, Shao Hua transferred to the Chinese Department of Dalian Normal University and began formal exchanges with Mao Anqing.
In 1960, with the support of both parents, they held a simple and solemn wedding in Dalian and officially became husband and wife.
The marriage of Mao Anqing and Shao Hua began with a joke in 1927. They helped each other, Mao Anqing grew up in the Soviet Union, and Shao Hua also learned Russian under his guidance.
The two have the same hobbies and often read ** literature together. Although Mao Anqing was in poor physical and mental condition, Shao Hua was always by his side, teaching him to play billiards and tennis, which made him cheerful.
However, due to physical reasons, Mao Anqing and Shao Hua have not been able to have children. Until 1969, Shao Hua became pregnant, but had dystocia during the delivery process.
Qiu Hui, director of the General Logistics Department, asked whether to protect adults or children. **Clear instructions to keep both adults and children safe. In the end, on January 17, 1970, Shao Hua'an gave birth to a boy, who was Mao Xinyu, the great hero of the Mao family.
Mao Xinyu is the only grandson of the Mao family and the first grandson of ***. When choosing a name, ** thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to call him Mao Xinyu, hoping that he could create a new world.
Mao Anqing and Shao Hua put all their energy into cultivating their sons, Mao Anqing played the role of a loving father, tolerated and loved his son, while Shao Hua taught his son cultural knowledge and was strict with him.
Overall, Mao Anqing and Shao Hua's marriage is a story full of love and mutual assistance, and their son Mao Xinyu is the crystallization of their love and the continuation of their hopes.
Mao Anqing, Mao Xinyu and Shao Hua are all descendants of ***. Mao Xinyu lived up to expectations, obtained a doctorate degree from the Academy of Military Sciences, and became a major general of our army. He is committed to the research and promotion of *** thought, and has published more than a dozen books, including "Grandpa*** My Uncle Mao Anying" and "The Five Emperors in the Eyes".
He has a rich historical and cultural heritage. In 1995, Shao Hua became a major general of our army and was one of the 15 female generals of the Republic. On June 24, 2008, she died of illness.
During her serious illness, ** happened in Wenchuan, she could not speak, and could only express her meaning with her mouth. She instructed Mao Xinyu to donate money to the disaster area on behalf of the whole family and dedicate love to the people in the disaster area.
Shao Hua has adhered to her original intention all her life, and she has always had love for the motherland and the people in her heart.
