Yao Shuxian missed an appointment due to work, and Chairman Mao wrote a poem to explain why Yao Shuxian did not dare to accept it?

Foreword

In 1959, Chairman Mao took a special train. On the special train, Chairman Mao asked Li Fengrong: "Why didn't Xiao Yao come to see me? Is she sick?"

Chairman Mao said Xiao Yao is a conductor on the Chairman Mao train. The name is Yao Shuxian. Chairman Mao is very concerned about Yao Shuxian's life. After learning that she was absent from the date with her boyfriend because of work, he gave an inscription to explain Yao Shuxian.

Chairman Mao’s care left a deep impression on Yao Shuxian. In the days that followed, Yao Shuxian always accompanied Chairman Mao and developed a deep affection with Chairman Mao.

Yao Shuxian set out to get to know Chairman Mao for the first time

Yao Shuxian was born in an ordinary worker's family in Tianjin in 1945. Yao Shuxian’s father is a railway worker. She has heard many stories about railways by his side since she was a child. Those stories have inspired Yao Shuxian to study hard. When she is in college in the future, she must learn to "make trains." .

However, the day was not fulfilled, and as the family's life became more and more poor, Yao Shuxian could only give up her dream in order to make money and support the family as soon as possible. Come out to work.

In 1952, Yao Shuxian came to the health school for training. After a period of study, Yao Shuxian was assigned to work in the Tianjin Railway Health and Epidemic Prevention Station.

In 1953, the leaders of the Tianjin Railway Health and Anti-epidemic Station considered that there were too few virgin comrades on the special train, and there were no medical personnel on the special train to protect the health of the chief.

So,The leader asked Yao Shuxian to talk, hoping that she could complete this task and protect the health and safety of the chief. Soon after the conversation, Yao Shuxian was transferred to the Special Transport Office of the Ministry of Railways.

In November 1953, the Director of Special Transport Division convened a meeting with all the flight attendants. At this meeting, the Director said very solemnly:

"We are going to perform an important task recently. This task is important. It is also glorious that the people of the whole country have handed over the burden to us, and we must use the party spirit to ensure that this task is completed with high quality."

After the director said, he caused a commotion, and there was a special line of work. The staff began to guess what the mission was. Afterwards, the director comforted everyone, and then said:

"Comrades performing this mission must strictly guard their posts and are not allowed to cross the carriages. Pay attention to confidentiality and don’t tell what you know. If you don’t know, don’t ask, and you’re not allowed to write to home.”

The director left after giving his account, leaving everyone standing there with a face of confusion. This train was originally for national leaders. People and envoys from friendly countries are riding, so everyone knows that the responsibility is very heavy, but the director is very serious this time, a little different from usual, I can't help but start to speculate that this time will be that important person.

Yao Shuxian, like everyone present, began to guess the character this time. She had participated in the task of picking up Liu Shaoqi, Zhou Enlai, Zhu De and others. At that time, she was not so strict. Yao Shuxian couldn’t help linking this big figure to a name. Together.

When she realized this, Yao Shuxian was inexplicably nervous. She didn't dare to think how lucky she would be if the facts were the same as she expected.

,Yao Shuxian was assigned to a soft box. Like other conductors, he ate and lived on the train every day. His daily job was to check the vehicles and clean up.

One day in December, the special train stopped for more than 20 days, and finally left the depot and stopped at the Qianmen Railway Station. When the train opened, Yao Shuxian realized that this mission was finally about to begin, and was in the mood She couldn't help getting excited, and her heart was always eager to find out whether her original idea was true.

But because the director told them earlier that the discipline requires them to sit in the cabin after the train is turned on, and they are not allowed to look around. Therefore, although Yao Shuxian is very curious about the visitor, he is still patient. Sit in his seat and wait.

It didn’t take long for the car to stop, Yao Shuxian felt a car coming. After the car stopped, a lot of people came up. In less than a minute, the original The stopped train started to move.

Soon after the train started, a young man named Li came to ask Yao Shuxian for a pot of hot water. Soon after, two young men came together to ask Yao Shuxian for playing cards.

The two saw that Yao Shuxian was not interesting to stay there alone, so they invited Yao Shuxian to play poker together. After Yao Shuxian agreed, the two recruited several people to play poker together in the conference room.

After a short game exchange, several people quickly became acquainted. Yao Shuxian also knew the names of several people, but due to the special circumstances and the need to keep them secret, Yao Shuxian did not know that they were the guards around Chairman Mao.

Because of the game, Yao Shuxian temporarily forgot to explore the identity of the big man. Several people played until the evening, Li Yinqiao, after seeing Zhang Xianpeng coming out of Chairman Mao’s room, asked: "What is the degree of the room?"

Zhang Xianpeng replied: "20 degrees".

Li Yinqiao then asked: "Did the chairman have dinner?"

Zhang Xianpeng shook his head, and replied: "He is still writing."

Yao Shuxian heard "from Li Yinqiao's mouth" When the word "Chairman" was spoken, she felt nervous. She thought that she had not guessed wrong, and that her previous guess was correct. The task this time is to protect Chairman Mao.

After realizing this, she was very excited. All night that day, Yao Shuxian was thinking about this matter and did not sleep well.

The next morning, as soon as Yao Shuxian had eaten breakfast, Li Yinqiao found her and said to her : "You have not gone to see the chairman. You should be polite. You should see the chairman."

Yao Shuxian felt very incredible when she heard Li Yinqiao's words. She never thought that one day she would have the opportunity to meet the chairman.

Li Yinqiao came to the door of Chairman Mao’s room with excitement and Yao Shuxian. Li Yinqiao asked Yao Shuxian to wait outside first. After Li Yinqiao went in and reported to Chairman Mao for a while, he went out to find Yao Shuxian and asked her to go in and find Chairman Mao.

After Yao Shuxian came in with Li Yinqiao, he saw Chairman Mao's excitement for a while and didn't know what to say. Chairman Mao looked at Yao Shuxian who was stunned and stretched out his hand with a smile.

Yao Shuxian did not respond for a long time. Li Yinqiao turned to look at Yao Shuxian and touched her with an elbow. Yao Shuxian finally recovered. Li Yinqiao signaled to her that Yao Shuxian saw that Chairman Mao had already stretched out his hand.

After that, Yao Shuxian stepped forward and held Chairman Mao’s hand tightly with her own hand.And support Chairman Mao well.

The two put their hands down, and Chairman Mao cast an inquiring look at Yao Shuxian and said a word. At that time, Yao Shuxian did not hear what Chairman Mao said, so she asked Li Yinqiao for help.

Li Yinqiao said to her: "The chairman asks what your name is?"

"Yao Shuxian"

This time Chairman Mao still said another sentence. To help her translate, Li Yinqiao said: "The chairman asks where are you from? How old?"

"Tianjin, 18 years old this year." Yao Shuxian replied.

Chairman Mao then asked Yao Shuxian about some other basic information. Unsurprisingly, it was all Li Yinqiao interpreting for her. After the questioning, Chairman Mao smiled and said to Yao Shuxian : "My accent is difficult to understand, isn't it? Listen more and get used to it."

Chairman Mao usually speaks with a little Hunan accent. Therefore, Yao Shuxian cannot understand all of them. When she heard the chairman’s sentence "Listen more later "Tears couldn't help but flow down his cheeks.

When the train arrived in Hangzhou, before getting off the train, Chairman Mao deliberately came to Yao Shuxian's room to bid her farewell, and said with concern to her: "I'm here, you have worked hard this time, you have a good rest!"

The meeting with Chairman Mao left a deep impression on Yao Shuxian. In the days that followed, Yao Shuxian thought about when to meet with Chairman Mao every day. What she did not expect was that this day came. So fast.

Chairman Mao encouraged Yao Shuxian to "violate regulations"

In 1955,The leaders of the central government had their own special trains, and the flight attendants were relatively fixed. Yao Shuxian and Li Fengrong were arranged to work on Chairman Mao's special trains together.

Since the flight attendants are fixed, Chairman Mao is not working alone in the same room on the special train as before. He often comes out in his free time to chat with the staff on the special train to get to know them. Living conditions.

1956 was an unusual year for Yao Shuxian, because in this year she not only reaped her love, but also received the blessing of Chairman Mao.

One day, Chairman Mao’s special train was driving on the way to Beidaihe. The idle Chairman Mao sat in the living room and chatted with the train conductor.

At that time, the age of the conductors on the train was exactly the age of dating. After talking with them for a while, Chairman Mao suddenly smiled and asked: "Today is Saturday, do you have a date?"

After Chairman Mao asked, the people around him bowed their heads, shyly avoiding Chairman Mao’s question without answering, only Yao Shuxian blurted out somehow: "I have, I have."

Yao Shuxian said. After that, I saw the people around me turning their eyes to her. When I saw everyone watching her, Yao Shuxian suddenly lowered his head, very regretful in his heart.

The second from the left is Yao Shuxian

After listening to Yao Shuxian's words, Chairman Mao didn't take her reckless behavior to heart, but kindly asked who Yao Shuxian had a date with.

Yao Shuxian has been bowing his head since he finished speaking, fearing that Chairman Mao will blame her. After hearing Chairman Mao’s question, Yao Shuxian raised his head, which had been buried, and whispered to Chairman Mao about his appointment. The target is his boyfriend, he is Xiao Lu who is in charge of food inspection on the special train.

Yao Shuxian’s boyfriend, Xiao Lu, is the staff member responsible for food inspection on Chairman Mao’s special train. He also had a big quarrel with Li Yinqiao on the special train about food inspection, and Chairman Mao finally knew about it. When Chairman Mao learned that Yao Shuxian’s boyfriend was Xiao Lu, he jokingly said to Yao Shuxian:

"Why do I hear others call him Dalu? Is it because he is tall or has a big temper? He is very powerful. , If he takes everything for testing, we will be hungry."

After Chairman Mao finished speaking, everyone around him burst into laughter. After the joke, Chairman Mao was silent for a while as if thinking of something important. , Frowned and asked Yao Shuxian anxiously: "Oh, what should you do if you bothered you?"

Yao Shuxian looked at Chairman Mao very nervous, smiled and comforted Chairman Mao. , Said: "Chairman, it’s okay. We were just in the Zhongshan Park at the door."

Mao Zedong had a meeting on the special train

Chairman Mao was not relieved after hearing Yao Shuxian’s comfort , But more anxiously asked: "How could it be okay? Did you tell him in advance that you are going to work?"

Yao Shuxian replied: "I haven't had time to tell him. We have regulations. Yes, he must keep the task strictly confidential. He also works here. He knows about this and he understands me very well..."

Chairman Mao shook his head after listening to Yao Shuxian's words and said to her: " You Xiao Yao! You should tell him this kind of thing in advance.Even if it's a phone call, you will have misunderstandings for a long time like this. "

After Chairman Mao persuaded Yao Shuxian to stop talking about this matter, bypassing this topic and continuing to talk about other things with comrades, Yao Shuxian originally thought that this matter was over, but he did not expect Chairman Mao to keep this matter away. In my heart.

That night, after Yao Shuxian sharpened the pencil he was going to use for Chairman Mao as usual, he came to Chairman Mao’s study and was about to hand it to him. Just when Yao Shuxian handed the pencil to Chairman Mao, he was about to turn around and leave. At the time, Chairman Mao stopped her suddenly.

Yao Shuxian turned around and saw Chairman Mao took a piece of paper and handed it to her, only to see this sentence written on the paper:

"Static Girl" Since I am in the city corner, I love but do not see, scratch my head and hesitate.

Chairman Mao said to Yao Shuxian: "Xiao Yao, show this to Xiao Lu, so that he will understand you, and the contradiction between the two of you will be resolved. "

Yao Shuxian was very touched to see Chairman Mao always thinking about her own affairs. She also wanted to accept Chairman Mao’s heart, but due to their work regulations, they could not bring the words with them privately. I was able to reject Chairman Mao and explained the reasons to Chairman Mao.

After listening to Yao Shuxian's explanation, Chairman Mao smiled and said to her: "Why are you so honest?" No one sees it now. I don't know how to make a small report. You hide it and bring it to him.

Yao Shuxian looked at Chairman Mao with a serious face, and could not bear to refuse. He collected the poems in his hand and walked out of Chairman Mao’s office.

Although Yao Shuxian agreed to Chairman Mao, he was not at ease about this matter. Then, She took this piece of paper to find the leader, and explained the whole story to the leader. After learning the specific situation, the leader approved Yao Shuxian to bring the note to Xiao Lu.

Mao Zedong and the staff are on the special train

Yao Shuxian is very grateful for Chairman Mao’s kindness. When she recalled this incident, she always said:

"I have worked by Chairman Mao for so many years. Only this time took away the text he wrote. And this "violation of discipline" left a good memory in my life, it recorded the leaders' care and love for them."

Chairman Mao rides Special train, because she was worried about Yao Shuxian, she asked: "Where did Xiao Yao go?"

After working on Chairman Mao's train for six or seven years, Yao Shuxian wanted to pick up the major she had studied before, so she applied for transfer back The previous work of the epidemic prevention station.

Once, Chairman Mao took a special trip and saw Yao Shuxian’s friend Li Fengrong who was taking care of him. He remembered that he hadn’t seen Yao Shuxian for a long time, so he asked Li Fengrong and Yao Shuxian’s whereabouts.

Li Fengrong told Chairman Mao about Yao Shuxian's return to work at the epidemic prevention station. After listening to the silence for a while, Chairman Mao said to Li Fengrong: "Go back and say hello to Xiao Yao for me."

Soon, Chairman Mao again I was worried and wrote a letter to Li Fengrong, in which Chairman Mao wrote:

I wish you three good times, good health, good study and good work.

Chairman Mao handed the letter to Li Fengrong after he finished writing. Li Fengrong looked at the letter in his hand and said to Chairman Mao: "Chairman, we have a rule here that we cannot take things with words out of the car."

Li Fengrong finished,Chairman Mao just remembered this matter, and then after a while, Chairman Mao thought for a while and said: "Forget it, then don't bring it, burn it."

Soon after this incident, Chairman Mao specifically For Yao Shuxian’s matter, I found the deputy director of the special transportation office, Wang, and said to him:

"I am familiar with Xiao Yao. She has worked here for many years, so let's ask her to come back here to work."

Soon after, under the personal care of Chairman Mao, Yao Shuxian returned to the special train and continued to work with Chairman Mao.

Not long after Yao Shuxian came back, she saw Chairman Mao who had not been seen for a long time. When she saw the familiar figure, Yao Shuxian was very excited and called loudly: "Chairman".

Chairman Mao heard the voice and saw Yao Shuxian running towards him. When Yao Shuxian stood in front of Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao smiled and said to her: "I'm very happy to hear that you are back again.

Later, Chairman Mao asked about Yao Shuxian's work outside. When he learned that Yao Shuxian was in contact with workers outside for treatment, he said happily: "Okay, very good, you should remove contact with workers more." Comrades are good."

Chairman Mao was very happy to see Yao Shuxian coming back, he said to Yao Shuxian: "Come over to eat with me for dinner today. Yao Shuxian nodded and agreed. Yao Shuxian accompanies Chairman Mao to dinner in the evening. Looking at everything familiar to him, Yao Shuxian was very happy, and she finally returned to this familiar place.
