In 1971, Yang Zhenning, who had been away from the motherland for 26 years, returned to his homeland with his wife Du Zhili. They married in the United States in 1950, and Yang Zhenning also stepped into the podium of the High School Affiliated to Southwest Associated University in that year and became Du Zhili's teacher.
The following year, Yang Zhenning embarked on the road to study in the United States, and Du Zhili also chose to go to the United States to continue her studies at the age of 18. Years later, they returned to China, to Yang Zhenning's hometown.
One day in 1949, Yang Zhenning and Du Zhili met by chance at a Chinese restaurant in the United States. Since then, their fates have been closely linked, and the seeds of love have quietly germinated in their hearts.
Soon after, they entered the palace of marriage, although in the changing world, Cao Xiuqing took the children to live a difficult life in Taiwan, Du Yuming was captured, but Yang Zhenning did not mind at all, he was willing to lend a hand to help his wife and the Du family in distress.
Du Zhili is a virtuous wife who takes the initiative to take on housework, which makes Yang Zhenning feel very warm. Their lives are full of hardship, but they are still full of love and happiness.
Cao Xiuqing went to Taiwan in 1949, Du Yuming was captured, and Chiang Kai-shek took control of Du Yuming's family after learning about it, and let Cao Xiuqing take the children and the elderly as hostages to Taiwan.
Although Cao Xiuqing is in Taiwan, he is still concerned about the education of children. In order to give her children a better educational environment, she had to give up the treatment of Mrs. ** and find a job to support her life.
In the difficult situation of life, she still adhered to her belief in children's education, asked Du Yuming's old friends for help, and finally got some old friends to help, so that the children have the opportunity to study.
However, it didn't take long for Du Yuming's mother to die in poverty, which stretched Du Zhiren's tuition fees in the United States. In this case, Du Zhiren could only write a letter to Cao Xiuqing for help, hoping that she could help him get through the difficulties.
When Cao Xiuqing learned of the Kuomintang authorities' act of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, she was so helpless and desperate that her eldest son, Du Zhiren, chose to commit suicide under great pressure. Later, the Kuomintang authorities told her that Du Yuming had been killed, but Cao Xiuqing always believed that her husband was still alive.
After tossing and turning, she learned the good news of Du Yuming's safe life in Beijing, which made her mood instantly relaxed. At the same time, she realizes that she must leave Taiwan in order to truly see her husband, otherwise it will be tantamount to parting with him in life and death.
Therefore, Cao Xiuqing's determination to leave Taiwan was even stronger.
Figure |Yang ZhenningIn 1957, Yang Zhenning won the Nobel Prize in Physics, shocking the international academic community. ** The Prime Minister attached great importance to this and immediately sent a delegation to Sweden to congratulate him.
Among the delegation was Yang Zhenning's mentor Zhang Wenyu. Upon learning the good news that his son-in-law had won the Nobel Prize in Physics, Du Yuming couldn't help but be overjoyed, splashed ink, and wrote a congratulatory letter full of affection: Dear son-in-law Ning, I am sincerely proud of you for winning the Nobel Prize in Physics, which is the glory of the Chinese nation.
Yang Zhenning was deeply moved after receiving the congratulatory letter from his father-in-law, and asked Zhang Wenyu to forward the letter to Du Yuming, expressing his deep gratitude to his father-in-law. Du Yuming's award also changed the attitude of Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang authorities towards Cao Xiuqing.
Jiang Song and his wife approved Cao Xiuqing's visit and let her go to the United States, much to her surprise and confusion. For many years, she silently endured hardships for her family's life, but Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling never thought of seeing her.
Now, they suddenly asked her to go to the United States, but it was for Yang Zhenning. During Cao Xiuqing's stay in the United States, Jiang Song and his wife first cared about her and her family's lives, and then inquired about Yang Zhenning's situation in detail.
Chiang asked her to rely on her mother-in-law's relationship to win Yang Chenning to come to Taiwan to serve the party-state. Cao Xiuqing understood that the change in the attitude of Jiang Song and his wife was only for Yang Zhenning. Despite this, she managed to reach the United States, reunite with her daughter and son-in-law, and await the opportunity to travel to Beijing.
**, when Cao Xiuqing first arrived in the United States, Du Yuming was granted amnesty. He felt deeply guilty for not listening to the words of the teacher at the Whampoa Military Academy. ** Relieved: "It's not your fault, it's my responsibility.
He encouraged them to become human beings again, and this sentence touched everyone present. Approachable and witty, creating a relaxed atmosphere. The conversation was very impressive.
After Du Yuming was pardoned, he settled in Beijing and served as a commissioner of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) and a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. After his life stabilized, he wrote to his wife Cao Xiuqing in the United States, hoping that she would come to Beijing to spend her old age together.
However, the Taiwanese side kept writing letters to Cao Xiuqing, asking her to return to Taiwan as soon as possible. Under the care of ***, Cao Xiuqing knew Du Yuming's situation very well, coupled with the encouragement of her daughter and son-in-law and the letter from her husband, she was even more determined to go to Beijing.
Yang Zhenning and Du Zhili took Cao Xiuqing to Beijing under the arrangement of *** and themselves. As the winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics, Yang Zhenning has attracted much attention, but he chose to return to the mainland of his motherland first.
This is because when Yang Zhenning was unknown, ** had already kept in touch with him through various channels, cared about him, and told him about Du Yuming's situation.
When Yang Zhenning learned the truth about his father-in-law's life in Beijing, he deeply felt the warmth and humanity from the motherland, so he made the decision to return to the motherland.
At that time, the staff of the War Criminals Management Center took meticulous care of Du Yuming. They found that Du Yuming was in abnormal health, and immediately sent him to the hospital**, and also arranged for a car transfer.
In order to help him recover, the staff brought fresh milk and medicines, and even spent a lot of money to purchase them from overseas. In addition, the War Criminals Management Center also opened a small stove for him so that he could eat nutritious food.
Under the care of the Communist Party of China, Du Yuming's illness for many years finally got the first day.
I used to have money and status, but I couldn't cure my disease. But after I became a criminal, the state wanted to do everything it could to ** me. At the beginning, as a war criminal, I just wanted to accept punishment, but ** was very kind to me, not only helping me to treat my illness, but also caring for me everywhere in my mind.
It's something I couldn't have thought of before. Later, Yang Zhenning won the Nobel Prize, and he also took the initiative to help me contact my son-in-law and also helped me convey the news to my wife in Taiwan.
I feel very grateful for that. With the passage of time, under the education of the War Criminals Management Center, I have changed a lot in my thinking. I took the initiative to be the leader of the sewing team, actively participated in labor, and found the joy of serving the people, and lived a very good life.
But I've always missed my wife in Taiwan. Therefore, immediately after being pardoned, I wrote her a letter. ”
Figure |Du Yuming and Cao Xiuqing finally lived a happy life together. Although it will take some time to return to China, Yang Zhenning has been waiting, and he is very relieved to learn that his father-in-law and mother-in-law are living well in the motherland.
In order to facilitate the life of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, Yang Zhenning also bought many home appliances and furniture in the United States and shipped them to Beijing. In the spring of 1971, Yang Zhenning immediately wrote a letter to his father, Yang Wuzhi, at Fudan University in Shanghai, expressing his desire to return to his motherland.
For Yang Zhenning's return to China, the country naturally warmly welcomes it. Therefore, when Yang Wuzhi reported the news that Yang Zhenning was going to return to China, he received a very positive reply.
In this way, Yang Zhenning and his wife returned to their motherland, and Yang Zhenning also became the first Chinese-American scientist to visit New China. After arriving in Shanghai, Yang Zhenning met his father and mother.
After rest and adjustment, Yang Zhenning came to Beijing, he not only met Deng Jiaxian, Zhou Peiyuan and others, but also in the summer of 1971, ** in the Great Hall of the People cordially received and hosted a banquet for Du Yuming's family.
At the banquet, ** had a cordial conversation with Yang Zhenning, covering various aspects such as scientific research, social issues, international trends, and family life, without any constraints.
Figure |Yang Zhenning and *** heard that Yang Zhenning affectionately called Cao Xiuqing his mother and called Du Yuming "Mr. Du", and immediately corrected: "You should be called Lord Yuezhang."
The humorous *** then said to Cao Xiuqing: "You should sit next to your son-in-law, your mother-in-law loves her son-in-law the most!" This sentence made everyone present laugh.
Subsequently, Yang Zhenning changed his words, and Du Yuming was also very happy and forgot what had just happened. Since then, in 1972 and 1973, Yang Zhenning will return to the motherland with his wife every year, and every time he and Du Yuming's family will be received and entertained.
The arrival of Yang Zhenning also made Du Yuming and his wife very happy, and they were greatly comforted emotionally.
In 1973, Yang Zhenning was received by *** in Zhongnanhai. The two had an in-depth conversation, and highly praised Yang Zhenning's outstanding contributions in the field of physics, and said to him: "Your work has an important impact on the world, and I am very grateful for your contributions."
Yang Zhenning also expressed his blessings to ***. However, ** laughed out loud after hearing this, and told Yang Zhenning: "Your blessing is not scientific and accurate enough."
However, this did not affect their friendship and mutual respect. On the same day, they also took a group photo together, which made Du Yuming's family feel very honored.
From 1971 to 1973, Yang Zhenning returned to China every year to visit his family, and had a wide impact on the international community. His return visit inspired Tsung-Dao Lee, Niu Manjiang and others to return to their homeland as well, and opened the door to scientific exchanges with the outside world.
Both Du Yuming and Yang Zhenning have great influence overseas, and they have used their influence to make tremendous contributions to the great cause of the motherland's reunification. In the years that followed, Du Yuming continued to sum up the past experience, look forward to the future development, and contribute to the construction of the country.
Their stories tell us that everyone can contribute to the prosperity and development of the country, and as long as we have dreams, courage, and determination, we will definitely be able to achieve our goals.

During his visit to the United States, Yang Chen-ning delivered a warm speech, stressing that the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the United States is in the interests of the people of the two countries and the people of the world, and pointed out that Taiwan Province is part of China.
Yang Zhenning often shares China's development in his speeches and promotes the motherland with practical actions. In May 1981, Du Yuming died of illness. Before he became critically ill, Du Yuming was still concerned about the great cause of the reunification of the motherland, and deliberately left his last words: I hope that my classmates, relatives, friends, and compatriots in Taiwan will put the great cause of the nation first, promote peaceful reunification at an early date, and jointly build our ancient civilization into a modern and powerful country, so as to bring benefits to future generations!
Although Du Yuming has gone through a tortuous road, he has a glorious second half of his life and has made contributions to the people and the country, which is worthy of eternal remembrance by the people. After Yang Zhenning learned of his father-in-law's death, he immediately rushed back to his motherland to mourn.
Yang Zhenning: As a scientist and social activist, he has contributed to the enhancement of the motherland's scientific strength and the development of education. On the occasion of the relaxation, he accompanied his wife Du Zhili back to Taiwan to visit his wife and sister.
He also visited key universities in China, sponsored scholars to further their studies, and actively promoted the development of education in the motherland. In May 1997, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the people of Jiangsu Province held a grand ceremony in Nanjing to commend him for his contributions to the scientific and educational undertakings of the motherland.
Figure |Yang Zhenning's choice shows that his patriotic stance is incomparably firm. His selfless dedication has made an important contribution to the development of science in our country. We should pay tribute to these patriotic scientists like Yang Zhenning, they are our idols!
