The age of the general marries the youngAt the age of ***, he had a daughter and fulfilled his last wish
Foreword: Song Shilun, one of the founding generals of our country, experienced a hundred years of changes from the Qing Dynasty to the founding of New China.
His storied life is full of historical testimonies, especially his three marriages, each of which is deeply imprinted with the imprint of that era. He once had an arranged marriage in the Qing Dynasty and a red love during the revolution, but the most striking thing was his deep affection with Zheng Jisi.
Zheng Jisi is Song Shilun's second wife, she suffered from lung cancer, but before she died, she said to Song Shilun: "After I died, I took my sister to live in Beijing and took care of her for me." ”
What kind of story is hidden behind this sentence? Why does she want Song Shilun to marry her sister? What is the reason for this? Let's explore the truth of history together.
Let her husband take care of her sister In 1967, as Song Shilun's second wife, Zheng Jisi unfortunately suffered from lung cancer and died soon after at the age of 51. Before her death, she specially called Song Shilun to the sickbed and told him to take her sister to Beijing to live after she passed away and take good care of her.
Song Shilun understood what she really meant, she wanted her sister to be taken care of after she died, even if she was gone, the two of them could rely on each other. Zheng Jisi's sister Zheng Xiaocun learned of her sister's last wish, although she was a little reluctant, she understood that her sister was also for her sister's good, so she acquiesced to the matter.
Song Shilun couldn't let go of Zheng Jisi's thoughts for a long time, although he didn't start a new relationship for a while, but Zheng Xiaocun's appearance made him feel a lot of comfort. Zheng Xiaocun has been intimate with Song Shilun in Beijing, and their day and night relationship has made each other have feelings.
In 1972, with the approval of the party organization, they officially became husband and wife, fulfilling Zheng Jisi's last wish.
Song Shilun is a legendary figure who witnessed the great changes in Chinese history. He was born in 1907 and experienced the decline of the Qing Dynasty and the rise of New China. His life was full of twists and turns and challenges in three marriages.
In 1925, at the age of 18, Song Shilun was studying at Wu Peifu's officer training corps, and his heart was filled with a desire for revolution. However, his parents arranged a marriage for him, and he was eventually forced to marry his original partner, Zou.
Although they have a daughter named Song Lanying, Song Shilun's heart is on the road of revolution, and he cannot live a stable life with the Zou family. Therefore, two years later, he proposed to reconcile, hoping that Zou would find a better home.
This story teaches us that love requires not only passion and romance, but also understanding and tolerance. Although Song Shilun's decision is distressing, it reflects his maturity and reason.
In order not to delay the Zou family, he chose a choice that was better for himself and for her. This is his responsibility for love, and it is also his pursuit of life.
After divorcing the Zou family, Song Shilun devoted himself to the revolutionary cause and was always eager to contribute to the revolutionary cause. It was not until 1940, while carrying out revolutionary work in Yan'an, that he met his second wife, Zheng Jisi.
Zheng Jisi was born in Shanwei, Guangdong Province in 1916, and her family was the richest man in Shanwei at that time - Zheng Zhisheng family. Due to his famous background, Zheng Jisi received a good education and lived a happy life since he was a child.
She has a cheerful and lively personality and a serious attitude towards learning. While studying nursing at Lingnan Medical College, she was influenced by revolutionary ideas and joined the Communist Party of China in 1936.
In 1937, Zheng Jisi cherished revolutionary ideals, defied difficulties, left the superior environment of his hometown, embarked on the road to Yan'an, looked for party organizations, and devoted himself to revolutionary work.
In Yan'an, she gave full play to the professional knowledge of the first class of Lingnan Medical College, and made outstanding contributions to the medical cause and the welfare of women and children in the Soviet area. What she didn't expect was that on the road to the revolution, she gained love.
In Yan'an, she and Song Shilun met because of work, and getting along day and night made them have a deeper understanding and deep feelings for each other.
In 1941, Song Shilun, who had been separated from his original partner Zou for 14 years, began his second marriage with the consent of the organization. At that time, China's revolutionary cause was still in a state of emergency, so their wedding in Yan'an was not too publicized, but only invited a few colleagues to attend.
Song Shilun, who is over 34 years old, and Zheng Jisi, who is 9 years younger than him, entered the palace of marriage. Their married life is happy and sweet. Although Zheng Jisi was born in a famous family and has been favored by his family since he was a child, he does not have the squeamishness of the eldest lady at all, but is very diligent and practical.
Her colleagues in the same party praised her as a good wife.
After the victory to resist US aggression and aid Korea, Song Shilun and *** met for the first time, and soon after, the Korean War broke out. He received an order from his superiors to again lead the army to fight in Korea.
At the same time, he also asked his eldest daughter Song Lanying to change her name to Song Zhixian, and encouraged her to sign up for the army and fight in North Korea together. However, as fate would have it, Song Zhixian was seriously injured in a car accident on the way to the northeast, and had to cancel his plan to participate in the war and recuperate in a local hospital for several months.
After being discharged from the hospital, Song Zhixian's injuries could no longer allow her to return to the front line, so she had to go home. However, at home, Song Zhixian was taken care of by his stepmother Zheng Jisi, who made soup for Song Zhixian every day to supplement nutrition.
The degree of this kind of care is even more thoughtful than that of the biological mother. Although Zheng Jisi is only Song Zhixian's stepmother, when Song Zhixian needs to be taken care of, she has always been conscientious and has no regrets.
Song Zhixian saw everything Zheng Jisi did for her, and cared for her. When Song Shilun returned from the Korean battlefield, she praised Zheng Jisi in front of her father many times.
Although Song Shilun thinks that Zheng Jisi is good to her because of their good relationship between husband and wife, Song Zhixian does not think so, she feels that Zheng Jisi has noble character and high cultivation, and she thinks that it is her blessing to be Zheng Jisi's stepdaughter.
And when Song Shilun came back from the Korean battlefield, in addition to hearing his daughter's praise for his wife, he was also taken by Zheng Jisi to meet Zheng Jisi's sister - Zheng Xiaocun.
When he met Zheng Xiaocun for the first time, Song Shilun, as his brother-in-law, decided to give this *** a meeting gift, and he took out a Parker pen from his military pocket, which was also his first meeting with Zheng Xiaocun.
Before Zheng Jisi had a chance to use the fountain pen, she decided to give it to her sister-in-law Yimin. Yimin's elder brother, Zheng Junmin, embarked on a revolutionary journey shortly after his marriage, but unfortunately was killed by the enemy while fighting for the revolution in Shanghai.
After her brother's death, Zheng Jisi, as a younger sister, has been paying attention to the life of her sister-in-law Yimin, and after her life with Song Shilun in Shanghai has stabilized, she immediately takes her sister-in-law to take care of her, and also finds a job for her sister-in-law to ensure that her life is worry-free.
Yimin had just joined the work and was in urgent need of help. So, Zheng Jisi planned to transfer the expensive Parker pen that her brother gave to Zheng Xiaocun to her sister-in-law. However, Zheng Jisi understood the origin of this pen, and she could not decide to transfer it to her sister-in-law without authorization.
So, she found Zheng Xiaocun, who was only 12 years old, and discussed gently: "Xiaocun, you are still in school, and you don't need this pen for the time being." And your sister-in-law has just started working and needs a good pen.
Look, can I give the pen to my sister-in-law?Although Zheng Xiaocun likes this fountain pen very much, she understands her sister's decision. Because my sister-in-law's life has been very difficult since her brother died.
So, she agreed to Zheng Jisi's proposal.
Song Shilun had a different attitude towards his wife and daughter. In 1944, Song Chongshi was born in the harsh conditions of Yan'an, due to insufficient nutrition, resulting in insufficient milk, often hungry and crying, and even suffering from hypochondriasis.
However, after learning about this, ** generously gave his cow to Song Chongshi to help her recover her health. When Song Chongshi grew up, he recalled that his father Song Shilun was always strict, requiring the family to do their own laundry, cooking, and sewing clothes.
Despite their difficult living conditions, Song Shilun still adhered to his principles and was strict with his family.
Finish the meal!This move made Song Chongshi a little scared, but she finally finished the meal under the supervision of Song Shilun. Since then, Song Chongshi has never wasted food again.
Song Shilun is not only strict with his daughter, but also very demanding of his grandson Gu Zhenan. When Gu Zhenan was working in the army, he always maintained a diligent and hard-working attitude, stuck to his post, and soon got the opportunity to be promoted.
However, by chance, the leaders of the unit discovered the relationship between Gu Zhenan and Song Shilun, and asked Gu Zhenan to ask Song Shilun to buy a color TV set for the unit.
Although color televisions were not common at the time, Gu Zhenan still told Song Shilun about it.
Song Shilun was deeply outraged by his grandson's misbehavior and resolutely said: "I have the right, but not for personal gain. Not even my grandson can use me for personal gain. ”
Although his leader took into account Gu Zhen'an's request, he still let Gu Zhenan retire after the expiration of his service, and although the leader could not be promoted, he understood and respected Song Shilun's iron-faced selflessness and expressed admiration for his behavior.
Although Song Shilun is strict with the children, in the eyes of the children, he has a close relationship with his mother, always listens to his mother's opinions, and is very gentle with Zheng Jisi.
And Song Shilun's special treatment of Zheng Jisi made her feel very sweet. Song Shilun and Zheng Jisi have spent 26 years of sweet and happy life together.
Four years after Zheng Jisi's death, he still remembers his wife's last wishes. In 1967, he suffered from lung cancer and died in Shanghai at the age of 51.
Although Zheng Jisi knew that the medical technology at that time could not ** his illness, he still left his last words to his husband Song Shilun at the last moment of his life: "After I die, I must take Xiaocun to live in Beijing, and you must take care of her for me." ”
Although Song Shilun understood his wife's hopes, he was immersed in the pain of his deceased wife and had no heart to think about new feelings for the time being. Three years later, he brought Zheng Xiaocun to Beijing, where his life was very difficult.
However, it was with Zheng Xiaocun's company that he successfully survived that difficult period.
Song Shilun and Zheng Xiaocun knew each other and fell in love, and a year later, they got married with the approval of the organization, fulfilling the last wish of his deceased wife Zheng Jisi. Their marriage was also joked about as a good blessing by the cadres who worked together, and Song Shilun smiled indifferently.
Zheng Xiaocun devoted himself to the kindergarten work of the Military Science and Political Department in 1973, working diligently and steadfastly, very dedicated, promoted from an ordinary teacher to the head of the kindergarten, and enjoyed the treatment of the regular army after retirement.
In her marriage to Song Shilun, she gave birth to a daughter for him, named Song Baiyi, Song Baiyi grew up to work as a ** in a hospital in Beijing, although the salary was not high, but she stuck to her post at work and was very dedicated.
In 1991, Song Shilun died of illness in Shanghai at the age of 84, leaving his 51-year-old wife Zheng Xiaocun and daughter Song Baiyi to rely on each other. Zheng Jisi was also 51 years old when he died, and these two 51-year-olds were full of life and death.
Zheng Jisi is a great woman, and her understanding of marriage has surpassed herself. She chose to leave her sister Zheng Xiaocun in the care of her husband, because she was worried that her loved ones would not be able to bear her departure.
The two of them take care of each other together, and they can get out of the pain faster. Although it seems absurd now, marrying *** is absurd, but in the social context at the time, this was their helpless choice.
