In 1960, ** recuperation in Beidaihe, the evening beach, sunset and breeze made people feel comfortable. Suddenly, a little boy walked up to him lightly, bowed to him and said, "Hello Grandpa Chairman." ”
Looking at this unfamiliar child, ** smiled and asked him: "Hello, little friend, are you here alone?" The boy replied, "No, I came with my grandmother, who is over there." ”
He pointed to his grandmother, who was not far away. ** Looking in the direction the little boy was pointing, excited. It turned out that the little boy's grandmother was his first secretary - Zeng Biyi.
Zeng Biyi, formerly known as Zeng Zhaoci, was born in 1907 in a middle-class family in Nanxiong, Guangdong. In that feudal era, girls generally did not have the right to go to school, but her parents sent her to read and write.
It was this learning experience that exposed her to the message of KMT-CCP cooperation, and the rapid spread of Marxism stimulated her revolutionary enthusiasm. So she joined the Socialist Youth League and later the Women's Liberation Association.
On her revolutionary path, there was an important leader - her brother Zeng Zhaoxiu. The two brothers and sisters are not only brothers and sisters whose blood is thicker than water, but also comrades-in-arms in the revolution.
During a revolutionary activity, she met Gu Bai from Jiangxi Province, and the two hit it off at first sight and missed each other ever since. However, in 1927, the April 12 coup broke out, the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party broke down, and the Kuomintang reactionaries began to aggressively become Communists.
After some struggle, Gu Bai led his old troops back to his hometown of Jiangxi to find Wu, and established a guerrilla force in the local area. Zeng Biyi's brothers and sisters temporarily stayed in their hometown in Nanxiong, Guangdong.
Zeng Zhaoxiu led the masses and the Red Guards to carry out several armed resistances, but could not get rid of the rule of the white regime, and finally had to choose to flee. She found Gu Bai, who was looking for Wu in Jiangxi, and sought help from the revolutionary organization.
After hearing what happened to Zeng Zhaoxiu, Gu Bai was very concerned about her safety, and immediately sent a group of people to pick up Zeng Biyi. However, their journey was not all smooth sailing, and they were intercepted by bandits on the way.
The bandits were attracted by Zeng Biyi's beauty and wanted to keep her as the lady of the village. At this time, a warrior with both wisdom and bravery, he had an idea, and as Gu Bai's fiancée, he scared the bandits away and successfully rescued Zeng Biyi.
When the soldiers returned to their station, they told the story to Cooper. Gu Bai's face was flushed after hearing this, and his helpless appearance was seen by Zeng Zhaoxiu. Zeng Zhaoxiu knew his sister's intentions, so he asked Gu Bai what he thought of her.
Cooper said shyly, "I like her very much. Zeng Zhaoxiu laughed when he heard this, and immediately decided to help them set a wedding date. The two young men readily agreed, and soon they were married, and together they drafted a declaration of marriage.
After living in Xunwu for two years, ** came to Jiangxi.
In 1930, ** led the Red Army to Xunwu, and in order to better understand the local people, he chose Gu Bai as his translator and secretary. Under the guidance of Cooper, he had an in-depth understanding of the customs and social conditions of the search for Wu, which provided valuable material for his later creation of "Investigation of the Search for Wu".
However, due to work needs, Cooper was transferred out of his position as secretary, and he recommended his wife, Zeng Biyi, to replace him. Zeng Biyi is careful and thoughtful, knows the local dialect well, and is the best candidate to serve as a secretary.
After Gu Bai left office, Zeng Biyi became the personal female secretary of ***. However, in 1934, when the Red Army was forced to go on a long march, Zeng Biyi and Gu Bai were organized and arranged to continue fighting in the Soviet area.
They fostered their children in the homes of their fellow villagers in Jiangxi, but they did not expect that this separation would become a farewell.
In 1935, Zeng Biyi's husband Cooper died heroically to protect his teammates, which made her miserable. However, in 1949, her son suffered another misfortune.
** She was overjoyed to receive an order to work in Beijing. Packing their luggage and taking their newly retrieved second son, Gu Yimin, they took a jeep to the north.
However, unfortunately, a car accident occurred halfway through the car, Zeng Biyi's right leg was crushed, Gu Yimin died on the spot, and the white-haired man sent the black-haired man, which made Zeng Biyi suffer a huge blow.
After recuperating in the hospital for a year and a half, ** sent someone to pick her up to Fengze Garden, Zhongnanhai, Beijing. Facing the chairman, she recounted the departure of her husband and son, which made her unable to let go.
After listening, he sighed: "You have worked hard all these years, but we still have to look forward, and we must go back to Jiangxi to find the child." Zeng Biyi had lost hope of finding the child, but she didn't expect that ** really helped her find her youngest son Gu Yimin.
**I was concerned that Zeng Biyi should contact more party comrades, and told her many times to visit her often. However, due to her busy work schedule and taking care of her little grandson, Zeng Biyi rarely goes out.
Until 1960, ** met Zeng Biyi in Beidaihe and said to her: "Why don't you listen to me?" Come and see me more, contact more comrades in the party, and still look forward. ”
Zeng Biyi felt very sorry and said that because other comrades were very busy, she was embarrassed to disturb. But *** said resolutely: "If you are busy, you have to come to see me often." ”
Since then, Zeng Biyi will go to Zhongnanhai to visit *** as long as he is free until he dies.
