In 1972, He Ping sent a letter home, with the content not much different from usual, asking whether his parents were healthy. However, he also mentioned a name in the letter - Deng Rong .
Mother Chen Kai Come carefully read the letter three times and came to a conclusion : Deng Rong must be the girl her son likes.
Important cadre of the People's Liberation Army He Biao just pretended that his son was just talking casually and was an ordinary friend with Deng Rong. After He Ping

, He Ping sent another letter to his home, and there was also a photo in it, with Deng Rong in the photo showing her beautiful eyes.
He Biao then believed that his son was really in love and took the initiative to ask about the girl's situation.
He Ping told his parents about the love story in a serene way. After hearing this, He Biao and his wife were happy and their son's lifelong affairs finally came to an end.
After learning about the girl's family background, He Biao said to his son earnestly: "His father is a good person. You must treat her well and take good care of her."
Who is Deng Rong's father, and why can he get such a high evaluation from He Biao?

Family separation, I can't stop missing
The good person He Biao mentioned was Comrade Xiaoping. Because of work reasons, the Deng family was arranged to carry out construction in all parts of the country.
Deng Rong is the youngest child in the family, and both her parents and older brothers and sisters love her very much.
The girl who grew up in a honey jar had almost no suffering and developed a naughty and cute personality.
When I was a child, Deng Rong always spoke in a shocking way with a small mouth, which made the family laugh.
When she was a teenager, she thought that when she grew up, she would always be with her parents, feel her mother's gentle love every day, and listen to her father's teachings like gentle breeze and drizzle.

However, everyone will experience separation for various reasons. Deng Rong, who just graduated from middle school, heard a bad news: her parents were sent to work in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, and she was assigned to Yan'an, Shaanxi.
The night before parting, sadness enveloped the entire family.
While helping her pack her luggage, her mother reminded her : " Rongrong , you should be more careful when you are away, you must take good care of yourself, and write a letter to your home if you have any problems."
Deng Rong lowered her head and kept her mother's words in her heart.
Tears were spinning in her eyes, and she was afraid that she would burst into tears when she looked up.
She didn't want to worry her parents, so she immediately ran back to her room and lay on the bed and covered herself with a quilt.
Comrade Xiaoping and Zhuo Lin
All night, Deng Rong slept very uneasy, tossing and turning in the bed, tossing and turning.
Sometimes the scene of a family being together and having fun together appears in her mind, and then her thoughts run to Yan'an again, imagining the local customs and working environment.
The next day, Deng Rong got up early all morning, thinking about helping her mother do housework again.
Mother has already prepared a steaming breakfast, and the food on the table is all her favorite food.
She suddenly felt warm in her heart, and all the discomfort and sadness disappeared.
After dinner, Deng Rong is about to embark on a new journey and rush from Beijing to Yan'an.
In the era of inconvenient transportation, it took several days for more than 900 kilometers. After a bumpy journey, Deng Rong arrived at his destination.
Gay Xiaoping and his wife
At first, she couldn't understand Shaanxi dialect and rarely communicated with her fellow villagers.
The villagers especially like this girl from the city, because Deng Rong is well-educated and knowledgeable, and always has a bright smile on her face when talking to people.
Gradually, Deng Rong integrated into the local environment and was able to communicate with everyone freely.
Although she had not done much farm work before, under the guidance of the villagers, digging, weeding and sowing are no problem. A little girl works even more easily than many boys.
Loess Plateau has made her develop a tenacious personality. When faced with work problems, she never complains and will always actively solve them.
Deng Rong
The hospitality and hospitality people in Yan'an would invite Deng Rong to their homes for dinner from time to time. The girl was afraid of trouble for everyone and politely refused.
When she is free, she will sit together and talk to her fellow villagers about homework.
Many villagers have never been to Beijing City and are very interested in the capital. They always ask her: "Deng Rong, is the road in the capital big and wide? Are the people in the capital the same food and clothing as us?"
The girl will seriously answer the fellow villagers' questions: "The road in the capital city is indeed relatively wide, but I believe that with everyone's joint efforts, we can also build Yan'an beautifully."
The girl will seriously answer the question of the fellow villagers: "The road in the capital city is indeed relatively wide, but I believe that with everyone's joint efforts, we can also build Yan'an beautifully."
The villagers trusted her very much, nodded repeatedly, and echoed : "Deng Rong, you are right. Our country will get better and better. At that time, the people of the whole country can live a good life."
. Deng Rong's thoughts floated to the distance. She thought of the scene where the family was sitting at the dinner table, having a lively meal and chatting, and she really wanted to sit with her relatives again and talk.
She cares more about how her parents live in Nanchang , and she wishes she could put on a pair of wings and fly to her parents immediately in the wind.
Can her wish to reunite with her family come true?
Friends as a mediator and gets to know his other half
In a blink of an eye, Deng Rong has worked in Yan'an for several years and has grown from a little girl who needs her parents to shelter from the wind and rain to a big girl who is self-reliant and self-reliant and able to stand alone.
Golden October, Oils and scents are fragrant, Yan'an ushered in a great harvest, yellow corn, red apples, bright chili peppers...
The crops in the fields are ripe, the fruits and melons in the fields are fragrant, and every household is filled with joy.
Everyone rolled up their sleeves and worked hard, seized the time to harvest the crops, and filled the granary with joy.
The children in the village also joined the busy team and ran around the fields. Deng Rong was infected by this atmosphere and worked harder.
Although the sun in October is not as hot as summer, it is still hot. After all, the autumn tiger is quite powerful.
Deng Rong's clothes were all soaked in sweat, thinking in her heart that she must take a hot shower at night.
suddenly someone called her, "Deng Rong, your family has sent you a letter, go and have a look."
got the letter I longing for home, Deng Rong was very excited and couldn't wait to open the envelope, the lines were filled with the care of her family for her. A very important thing was mentioned in the letter: she could visit relatives in Nanchang.
Since she came to Yan'an to work, she has been missing her relatives day and night. The arrival of this letter is undoubtedly the best news for her.
Deng Rong and her second sister Deng Nan
, she would always take out letters again and again and read them carefully from beginning to end.
Even at night, she would still read letters to and from the moonlight, hoping that the moon could pass on her longing to her family.
Deng Rong counted the time day by day by day by finger, and finally waited for the day to go home.
The fellow villager learned that she was going to travel to Jiangxi for a long distance and stuffed her bags full of fragrant sesame cakes, tempting eggs, and heart-filled local specialties.
The girl was carrying a heavy luggage, but her heart was warm.
Village is more than 30 miles away from the county town. The poor village has no bicycles, so Deng Rong can only hike to the train station.
She was so heartbroken that she didn't rest all the way and arrived at the train station before dark.
She bought the ticket and waited for the train to take her to Jiangxi. Every time the train advanced one kilometer, she could clearly feel that she was closer to her parents.
The train was not fast at that time. The girl took the train for seven days and seven nights, and transferred many times during this period.
In the car, she ate the delicious dry food prepared by her fellow villagers, thinking about her parents' appearance, and she couldn't feel the fatigue and sleepiness of the journey at all.
After Deng Rong came to the place where her parents lived, she couldn't wait to rush into the yard and shouted : "Mom and Dad, I'm back."
Deng Xiaoping Zhuo Lin was with the children
Comrade Xiaoping and his wife immediately went out to greet their daughter. The three of them hugged each other and cried with joy.
Comrade Xiaoping asked Deng Ronggong about his work and whether he was used to eating and living in Yan'an.
As we chatted, the sky darkened, and my mother began to prepare dinner, and the familiar smell suddenly aroused Deng Rong's appetite.
She ate two big bowls of rice in a row. Looking at her daughter's voracious look, her mother said : "Eat slowly, no one will snatch you, there is still a lot of rice in the pot."
Deng Rong was chewing the dishes in her mouth and said vaguely: "Mom, the dishes you cook are so delicious."
Comrade Xiaoping took a photo with others
Deng Rong stayed at home for a long time this time and had a festive and lively Spring Festival with her family. After the New Year, she will continue to return to Yan'an to work.
This time, she was not as nervous as before, because she had grown up and could support a world by herself.
returned to Yan'an again. Deng Rong's mood was completely different from before. He had regarded Yan'an as his second hometown, and the local fellows also became relatives in her heart.
Accordingly, Deng Rong met his good friend Lu Tongyan After Lu Tongyan graduated from medical university, he was arranged to the commune hospital in Yan'an.
Comrade Xiaoping Zhuo Lin is with the children
The two had a very good relationship before. They were able to meet each other in other places and were very happy. When they had time, they would sit together and chat.
Lu Tongyan is a kind and cheerful girl, who is young but keen on being a matchmaker.
Lu Tongyan knew He Ping and knew that He Ping was loyal, so he wanted to match Deng Rong with He Ping.
He Ping was working alone in Hubei at that time, and his experience was similar to Deng Rong. The two of them communicated through letters, and the content they talked about ranged from simple greetings at the beginning to their later life ideals. The letter from
made the two people's hearts get closer and closer. The brave He Ping expressed his love to Deng Rong. Deng Rong accepted it happily and mentioned He Ping in his letter.
Comrade Xiaoping didn't understand the situation of the younger generation. He asked who his daughter He Ping was. Deng Rong replied : "The third brother of He Biao's family."
Comrade Xiaoping heard He Biao's name and suddenly remembered this "legendary deeds of Hua Tuo in the army."
He Biao himself has excellent medical skills and has treated many military and civilians. He is a capable and upright comrade.
The tiger father has no dog son. Comrade Xiaoping thinks that He Biao is so outstanding and He Ping will not be bad either. Therefore, he agrees that his daughter is with He Ping.
He Ping's parents had a certain understanding of Deng Rong through letters. Although they had never met, they especially like Deng Rong and had always wanted to find an opportunity to settle the marriage.
Have the two entered the marriage hall?
Comrade Xiaoping
tied the knot, and was as close as a family
In 1972, He Ping was approved by the organization and could go home to visit his parents. Because he had to pass through Nanchang, he hoped to visit Deng Rong's parents first.
Deng Rong also wanted her parents to see what her boyfriend looked like, so she decided to meet with He Ping at Nanchang Railway Station .
On that day, the bustling train station was noisy. Deng Rong was not too tall and had a little myopic eyes. He looked left and right, but he could not find He Ping.
Finally, He Ping discovered her first and called her, "Deng Rong, I'm here."
Deng Rong saw He Ping's first glance and realized that her boyfriend was so tall, which was completely beyond her expectations.
When He Ping stepped into the Deng family courtyard, Deng Rong's mother and grandmother kept looking at him carefully.
As the saying goes, the mother-in-law likes the son-in-law the more she sees her son-in-law. The tall and thin He Ping greeted every elder openly.
When eating, He Ping naturally treated the Deng family as his own and ignored him. He ate several bowls in one breath.
Grandma Deng Rong looked at He Ping's big mouthful of food, and was very happy in her heart and recognized this grandson-in-law very much. After
Deng Rong
, Deng Rong and her boyfriend visited the elders at He's house. He Biao and Chen Kai started preparing early, cleaned the house inside and out, and specifically asked about Deng Rong's taste.
The first time I met my boyfriend's parents, Deng Rong was shy, and just shouted in a low voice: "Uncle, aunt, hello, I am Deng Rong."
Chen Kai was particularly satisfied with Deng Rong and thought to himself that his son had a good vision and found such a good daughter-in-law.
At the dinner table, He Biao took the initiative to ask about the situation of the Deng family: "Deng Rong, how are your parents and grandmother living in Nanchang?"
Deng Rong replied : "They are all very adapted to local life, everything is well, thank you uncle for your concern."
He Biao and his wife took a photo
He Ping and Deng Rong got married with the support of their parents. After marriage, He Biao and Chen Kai were very kind to Deng Rong and treated her as their daughter.
Before becoming a relative, He Biao did not have much contact with Comrade Xiaoping because the two had different work units, so they had no chance to contact each other.
After the two families tied the knot, He Biao kept telling his family : "In-laws, in-laws, are as close as a family. From now on, our He family will share the honor and disgrace with the Deng family, and advance and retreat together."
He Biao did what he said and always supported Comrade Xiaoping's work.
In 1976, something happened to the Deng family. The He family did not choose to keep themselves alone, but tried their best to deal with it. At the same time, they took good care of Deng Rong and did not let Comrade Xiaoping worry.
Comrade Xiaoping's family
Deng Rong has also repeatedly stated : "My father-in-law has always been very kind to me. I am very lucky to be able to marry He Ping."
Later, Comrade Xiaoping presided over the work in the central government, and He Biao responded positively every time he issued a policy.
He Biao especially admires Comrade Xiaoping and feels from the bottom of his heart that Comrade Xiaoping is a brave, resourceful and wise family.
In Comrade Xiaoping's later years, the two often gathered together to drink tea, play bridge, and take care of their grandchildren.
He and Deng families both have excellent family style. The two families live very simple. The items at home have been used for decades, even older than the younger generation.
Since marrying He Ping, Deng Rong feels life is fun. Whenever she encounters anything, her husband will solve it as soon as possible and not bother her.
When Comrade Xiaoping was dying, He Ping would accompany him at the hospital bed as long as he had time, scrub his father-in-law's body and chat to relieve his fatigue.
He Biao is a sensible in-laws. He did not use his in-laws to seek benefits for himself. When his in-laws were in a downturn, he lends a helping hand.
He and his wife have always treated Deng Rong as relatives and are wholeheartedly doing their best for their daughter-in-law.
, under the education of his parents, He Ping became an excellent husband and respected Deng Rong as guests.
Deng Rong was particularly lucky. She grew up happily in her parents' home, and lived a happy life in her in-laws' home and everything went smoothly.
