Shui Jing met Chairman Mao for the second time, and Chairman Mao commented on her name. For example, Chairman Mao once asked Li Yinqiao: "Why aren't you called Li Jinqiao?" Sometimes Chairman Mao comments on names in order to let the meaning of the name guide life.

The second time Shuijing met Chairman Mao, Chairman Mao commented on her name.

Chairman Mao often commented on other people's names in person, and sometimes his comments were purely joking to liven up the atmosphere.

For example, Chairman Mao once asked Li Yinqiao: "Why aren't you called Li Jinqiao?"

Li Yinqiao was also smart and said with a smile: "How can I be destined to have a golden bridge."

Chairman Mao continued to joke: " That’s right, but you will be very rich if you have a Silver Bridge.”

Chairman Mao and Li Yinqiao

Sometimes Chairman Mao comments on names to let the meaning of the name guide life.

For example, Xu Shiyou's original name was Xu Shiyou. Chairman Mao told Xu Shiyou that officials are officials, and revolutionaries should not just be friends of officials, but also friends of the working people all over the world. It is better to replace "Shi" with "世", and Xu Shiyou's name will be determined from then on. down.

When Chairman Mao's cousin Mao Zeqing was working underground in Xi'an, he used the pseudonym Mao Yuncai.

Chairman Mao once returned to Yan'an and said to him: "It takes a lot of talent to make a revolution, so it would be better to be named Mao Wancai."

Mao Zeqing has been using the name Mao Wancai since then, and he did not change it back after liberation.

Chairman Mao and Mao Zeqing

Chairman Mao thought the name Shuijing had something wrong and raised it to Shuijing face to face.

Shui Jing refused to accept it, debated with Chairman Mao, and "won" Chairman Mao. Through this debate, Chairman Mao learned more about Shui Jing, and soon asked her for a favor.

In late March 1959, the Central Committee held an enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau in Shanghai. Shui Jing was the wife of Yang Shangkui, secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, and went to Shanghai with Yang Shangkui.

During the meeting, one of the participating representatives attended a dinner with their families. Shui Jing sat at the table next to Chairman Mao. This was the first time she had seen Chairman Mao up close, and she was very excited.

It would be nice to have such an opportunity to talk to Chairman Mao. Shui Jing was full of expectations, but she couldn't rush over to pay tribute to Chairman Mao. She didn't know what to do for a while.

Shui Jing

Chen Zhengren, who was sitting at the same table as Shui Jing, was one of the founders of the Jinggangshan base, and Yang Shangkui was both from Jiangxi. Central Red Army After the Long March, both of them fought guerrillas in Jiangxi.

After liberation, Yang Shangkui was the deputy secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee before Chen Zhengren was promoted from the position of Secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee to Minister of the State Council. This long-term friendship made the relationship between the two families very close.

Seeing Shui Jing's thoughts, Chen Zhengren got up and brought Shui Jing to Chairman Mao and introduced him to Chairman Mao. Chairman Mao shook Shui Jing's hand kindly and asked Shui Jing to sit next to him.

Shui Jing, who was sitting next to Chairman Mao, wanted to talk to Chairman Mao, but was too nervous not to know what to say.

Chairman Mao easily found a topic to resolve Shui Jing's tension: "Did you know that people from Hunan and Jiangxi are related, so Hunan people call Jiangxi people old cousins."

Shui Jing was a little confused after listening to Chairman Mao's speech. Then Chairman Mao continued: "During the Jin Dynasty, there was Xu Zhenjun in Jiangxi, and there was an evil dragon in Hunan, and he was suppressed by Xu Zhenjun. Do you know this story?"

Chairman Mao

water Jing is from Anhui, but she has been to Jiangxi with Yang Shangkui for so many years, and she already knows a lot about Jiangxi's historical allusions and cultural relics.

When Chairman Mao mentioned this allusion, she immediately replied: "There is a well in front of the Wanshou Palace in Xishan, Nanchang. It is said that the evil dragon was locked in that well by Xu Zhenjun."

"Yes, so it is still you in Jiangxi You are a great person." Chairman Mao's tone was full of encouragement for Shui Jing.

With this topic as an introduction, Shui Jing was no longer nervous and started chatting with Chairman Mao excitedly. Chatting with Chairman Mao for the first time, Shui Jing was deeply impressed by Chairman Mao's funny and approachable style.

Shui Jing

A few days later, when I saw Chairman Mao while watching a movie, Shui Jing completely relaxed.

During the intermission, Chairman Mao, Yang Shangkui and his wife were talking together. Combining the content of the drama with Shui Jing's name, Chairman Mao suddenly smiled and said to Shui Jing: "The name Shui Jing is not good and violates dialectics."

Shui Jing Chairman Mao looked at him in confusion, not knowing what he meant. Chairman Mao calmly continued to explain: "Water is flowing, how can it be still? Look at the water in the rivers and seas, where is it still? Why do you call it this name?"

Shui Jing then responded. Come over, in a relaxed state of mind, she immediately produced evidence that her name was correct: "There is a novel in the Soviet Union called "Quiet on the Don."

Chairman Mao nodded and said: "Indeed, When there is no wind, the water in the West Lake is still. "

Chairman Mao

Seeing that the specific picture was approved by Chairman Mao, Shui Jing was very excited and came up with theoretical basis to further prove the correctness of his name: "Wherever there is movement, there is stillness. Movement and stillness are two sides of a contradiction. Your " Contradictions " gave me this understanding, isn't it?" After hearing this, Chairman Mao looked at the water with a satisfied expression. Jing said: "You still have some sense."

Through this conversation, Chairman Mao had a better understanding of Shui Jing. Chairman Mao then met He Zizhen in Lushan, and Shui Jing played a very important role.

The only meeting between He Zizhen and Chairman Mao after leaving Yan'an was initiated by Zeng Zhi.

Zeng Zhi and He Zizhen had a deep friendship during the Central Soviet Area. Before going to Lushan, Zeng Zhi heard that He Zizhen was recuperating in Nanchang , so he made a special trip to visit He Zizhen.

Chairman Mao and He Zizhen

went up to Lushan to meet Chairman Mao. Zeng Zhi deliberately mentioned that she had met He Zizhen. Chairman Mao immediately asked with concern about He Zizhen's current situation. Zeng Zhi said that He Zizhen had a clear mind and could remember everything. He was not mentally ill at all.

Nanchang is so close to Lushan Mountain, so the opportunity is rare, so Chairman Mao came up with the idea of ​​meeting He Zizhen.

To confirm this idea, Chairman Mao specially invited Zeng Zhi and Zhu Danhua to dinner. Zhu Danhua was originally Mao Zemin's wife. After Mao Zemin's death, she remarried Fang Zhimin's younger brother Fang Zhichun.

During the meal, Chairman Mao mentioned that he wanted to meet He Zizhen. Zeng Zhi expressed his firm support. Zhu Danhua said "Everyone listens to big brother."

Zeng Zhi

Next, Chairman Mao asked Zeng Zhi and Zhu Danhua to go to Wang Dongxing arranged the specific matters for the meeting.

Wang Dongxing emphasized that the most important thing was to keep the meeting confidential, and asked Zeng Zhi and Zhu Danhua to secretly take He Zizhen to Lushan. Zeng Zhi was unable to pick up He Zizhen for some reason, so Shui Jing was involved in the matter.

Shui Jing was the wife of the then Secretary of the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee, so it was very appropriate for her to come to pick up He Zizhen. Moreover, from previous conversations, Chairman Mao also learned that Shui Jing was smart and decent in speaking and doing things, so she felt more at ease in doing this.

Another point is also very important. Shui Jing has a good relationship with He Zizhen and understands He Zizhen's current situation best.

Shui Jing first met He Zizhen in 1954. At that time, Yang Shangkui went to Shanghai for treatment, and He Zizhen went to the hospital to visit this old comrade from Jiangxi.

Yang Shangkui

He Zizhen walked into the ward and asked softly: "Is Comrade Yang Shangkui recuperating here?" Shui Jing looked up and had no idea who the middle-aged woman in front of him was.

At that time, Shui Jing was twenty-five years old and He Zizhen was forty-seven. The age gap of a generation did not prevent Shui Jing from feeling bright.

The He Zizhen in front of Shui Jing has a slim and well-proportioned figure and a tall and straight posture. Under the thick slender eyebrows, a pair of big black eyes flashed with mature and elegant light. The fair oval face, hidden by the slightly curly black hair, looks even more dignified and attractive.

Shui Jing secretly admired in her heart that this middle-aged lesbian must have been a beautiful woman when she was young. Looking at He Zizhen's dress, he is also very well-dressed. A simple white silk jacket, blue silk trousers, and a pair of black round-top cloth shoes give off a refreshing and elegant charm.

He Zizhen

He Zizhen was born in a wealthy family in Yongxin . She received good etiquette education since childhood and developed the habit of dressing up before going out as long as conditions permit.

In Shanghai, his brother He Xuemin reminded other family members that if he invited He Zizhen to watch a movie, he had to inform the show time an hour earlier, otherwise he would be late when he finished dressing up and went out.

When Shui Jing met He Zizhen for the first time, she had an indelible impression on her dress. This was also due to the good habits she had developed since she was a child.

After Yang Shangkui's introduction, Shui Jing learned about the person who came to visit the patient, He Zizhen. The first time she met He Zizhen, He Zizhen was talking to Yang Shangkui about the former Soviet area and some situations in Yongxing, He Zizhen's hometown, and Shui Jing could hardly get a word in.

But after knowing that it was He Zizhen, Shui Jing observed He Zizhen attentively and felt more and more that He Zizhen was an extraordinary woman. Regardless of her temperament, appearance, or conversation and insights, she could admire her.

He Zizhen

It was because of this meeting that Shui Jing felt a wave of heartache when he saw He Zizhen again, and she wanted to do something for He Zizhen from the bottom of her heart.

In the year when she met Shui Jing, He Zizhen once heard Chairman Mao's speech on the radio. She was stunned. She sat still until the radio burned out. After that, her physical condition began to deteriorate rapidly.

Chairman Mao shed tears after learning about this situation: "This is all because of me."

Chairman Mao then wrote a letter to He Zizhen, along with some supplements for Li Min to take to his mother. In the letter, Chairman Mao asked He Zizhen to take a good rest, take medicine as prescribed by the doctor, and smoke less.

After receiving Chairman Mao's letter, He Zizhen's mood improved greatly, and she asked Li Min to bring some fresh fruits, vegetables and local products back to Chairman Mao. Li Min often carries messages and things for her parents between Beijing and Shanghai.

Chairman Mao

However, He Zizhen hoped to meet Chairman Mao even more. When she returned from the Soviet Union in 1947, expressed this wish to Chairman Mao in a letter, even if it was just to shake hands and say a word.

Due to various reasons, this wish she had been looking forward to for many years did not come true.

In 1958, He Zizhen was in poor health and applied to the organization to leave Shanghai for recuperation. After the Jiangxi government learned of the situation, it immediately expressed its warm welcome to He Zizhen to return to Jiangxi for recuperation, no matter how long he stayed.

Returning to her hometown for recuperation suited He Zizhen's wishes, so she came to Nanchang and lived in a specially renovated two-story building with a quiet courtyard on Sanwei Road.

The Jiangxi Provincial Government assigned He Zizhen a chef, a nurse, and a guard according to deputy provincial level treatment. has a chef, but He Zizhen still has a big problem with eating.

He Zizhen

When He Zizhen was in the Soviet Union, he had a conflict with the director of the children's hospital because of his protection of Li Min. The director of the children's hospital slandered him as mentally ill and was sent to a "madhouse".

Workers at the "madhouse" often secretly added psychotropic drugs to He Zizhen's diet and gave her , which caused great damage to her body.

This left a psychological shadow on her. She had a stress reaction to diet. When her mental state was not good, she would refuse to eat for a long time, and sometimes she would not even drink water.

As soon as He Zizhen arrived in Nanchang, Shui Jing and Yang Shangkui went to see her. It had only been four years, and when Shui Jing saw He Zizhen, she had a lot of gray hair, and her whole person was no longer as energetic as when they first met.

He Zizhen

Yang Shangkui told He Zizhen that he hoped she would take good care of her health and strive for a speedy recovery. Shui Jing also hoped in her heart that He Zizhen could return to the same state as when they first met in Jiangxi.

In the early days of arriving in Jiangxi, He Zizhen was recovering well. She was not lonely when she went to Jiangxi alone. There were many of her old comrades in Jiangxi who often came to visit her. She also likes to communicate with old comrades, and she is very happy every time a guest comes.

Shui Jing and Yang Shangkui visited He Zizhen many times, and she became familiar with He Zizhen over time. He Zizhen would sometimes go to Shui Jing's house and chat with Shui Jing. He Zizhen would also chat with Shui Jing about Li Min's marriage.

He Zizhen once told Shui Jing that Chairman Mao specially asked Li Min to bring her boyfriend Kong Linghua to visit her. Shui Jing said: "When a daughter wants to get married, she should listen to her mother's opinion."

He Zizhen said lovingly: "Xiaokong is doing well, except for a little stomach problem."

Chairman Mao and Li Minhe Kong Linghua

Shui Jing smiled and expressed He Zizhen's thoughts: "As long as the main diet is good, some stomach problems can be cured."

He Zizhen nodded and said : "Yes. Chairman Mao has considered the problem very carefully. He should have thought of it. "

At this time, He Zizhen was in good spirits, but for some unknown reason, after a while, her spirits began to fluctuate frequently. When 's mental state is very poor, he will not eat for several days in a row. Others' advice is of no use, and even doctors are helpless.

Yang Shangkui was very anxious after knowing this situation, and quickly asked Shui Jing to take care of He Zizhen and find a way to let He Zizhen eat. Shui Jing rushed over and saw He Zizhen, who had not eaten and looked haggard. His eyes were dull, and he was so heartbroken that tears fell down.

She was choking and advised He Zizhen: "Sister He, please eat a little bit."

He Zizhen's eyes were dull, her lips were tightly closed and she ignored Shui Jing. Shui Jing stayed at He Zizhen's house for a long time and couldn't let He Zizhen eat.

He Zizhen

Shui Jing would not give up. Before leaving, she quietly called the nurse aside and said: "You will go for a walk with Sister He tomorrow. It seems that you accidentally walked to the door of my house. I will try to get Sister He to eat something."

The next day, the nurse followed the arrangement and asked He Zizhen to "encounter" Shui Jing at the door of Shui Jing's house.

Shui Jing immediately warmly invited He Zizhen to sit at home. As soon as they sat down at home and chatted for a few words, Shui Jing said to He Zizhen: "Sister He, I haven't eaten yet, how about you eat something with me?"

Before He Zizhen could refuse, Shui Jing asked someone to serve the food that had been prepared, placed bowls and chopsticks on He Zizhen, and started eating by herself.

He Zizhen hadn't eaten seriously for a long time. Now she saw Shui Jing eating deliciously in front of her. The hunger in her belly suddenly overcame the stress reaction of being wary of food. She couldn't help but pick up the bowls and chopsticks and ate. A bowl of rice and a bowl of porridge.

He Zizhen and the staff around him

It can be seen from this incident that Shui Jing is very alert and meticulous in her work, just like her name debate with Chairman Mao.

Through close contact with He Zizhen, Shui Jing knew that He Zizhen had deep feelings for Chairman Mao, even if He Zizhen didn't say it, and she hoped to meet Chairman Mao.

When she heard Yang Shangkui say that Chairman Mao asked her and Zhu Danhua to pick up He Zizhen to meet in Lushan, she was very excited and couldn't stop being happy for He Zizhen.

Yang Shangkui said to her seriously: "It is important to keep this matter confidential, and you must remember this."

Excited to the point of being excited, Shui Jing kept it in mind. First of all, He Zizhen must not be allowed to know why he went up to Lushan Mountain. Otherwise, when He Zizhen gets excited, he loses control of his emotions before going up the mountain. If he misses this rare opportunity, Shui Jing will feel worried about He Zizhen.

Zhu Danhua

Lushan Mountain is originally a holy place for recuperation. In addition, it is a hot summer day in July, so it is easy to find a reason to go to Lushan Mountain.

Shuijing and Zhu Danhua went to find He Zizhen together and said to her: "Sister He, it's too hot now. The organization has arranged for you to go to Lushan Mountain to escape the summer heat. You will go up the mountain tomorrow. What do you think?"

He Zizhen was very happy to hear this. , without thinking much about it, I simply packed up the next day and took a car to Lushan with Shui Jing and Zhu Danhua.

When they arrived in Lushan, the three of them did not live in the villa area, but in a specially arranged apartment. Zhu Danhua lived in one room in his apartment, and Shui Jing and He Zizhen shared another room. The rooms are in the current standard room layout and have all basic living facilities.

Shui Jing and He Zizhen stayed in the room and chatted for a while. After dinner, Shui Jing found an opportunity and called Yang Shangkui first to inform them of their successful arrival. Yang Shangkui asked Shui Jing to take good care of He Zizhen. Then Shui Jing called Chairman Mao to report the situation.

Chairman Mao

Chairman Mao asked with concern: "How is the guest's condition?"

"The guest's condition is very good." Shui Jingxin answered with understanding.

"Well, then you just wait for me to arrange it."

At noon the next day, Shui Jing took advantage of He Zizhen's lunch break and took Yang Shangkui's car to Chairman Mao's villa to report to Chairman Mao in person the situation of accompanying He Zizhen to Lushan Mountain.

After hearing this, Chairman Mao said: "You have done a good job in this matter. I have made all the arrangements. At nine o'clock tonight, you accompany Comrade He Zizhen to my place in Comrade Yang Shangkui's car. I recognize Comrade Yang Shangkui's license plate at the gate. "No need to report."

Shui Jing nodded and asked Chairman Mao if he wanted Zhu Danhua to come with him. Chairman Mao said there was no need to trouble Zhu Danhua, she could just stay with her alone.

Yang Shangkui and Shui Jing

At the agreed time, Shui Jing and He Zizhen took Yang Shangkui's car and drove into Chairman Mao's villa without any hindrance.

entered the villa, Shui Jing rested outside, and the staff accompanied He Zizhen into the reception room. Although He Zizhen had a premonition at this time, she was still not sure who she was coming to see.

About an hour later, Shui Jing heard the bell ringing in the duty room, and then saw the staff entering the reception room and helping He Zizhen to the duty room. Then the staff told Shui Jing that Chairman Mao asked her to come in.

As soon as Chairman Mao saw Shui Jing, he said: "Comrade He Zizhen is very excited. You must accompany her every step of the way before going down the mountain."

When Shui Jing heard this, he quickly said seriously: "Don't worry, Chairman, I will accompany her every step of the way." "Sister He."

Chairman Mao nodded and said: "There is something you need to do immediately. Comrade He Zizhen took three bottles of sleeping pills from me. The medicine is very powerful. You must not let her take it. It is best to get it from her." "Take it back."

"Don't worry, Chairman, I will get this done," Shui Jing said seriously.

Chairman Mao

Before Shui Jing left, Chairman Mao suddenly asked her: "What is Comrade He Zizhen's current treatment?"

Shui Jing replied: "Sister He has always been treated at the deputy provincial level."

"That's okay." Chairman Mao said happily.

The next day, Shui Jing accompanied He Zizhen to leave Lushan and return to Nanchang. On the way, Shui Jing asked He Zizhen: "Sister He, what changes do you think Chairman Mao has changed during this meeting?"

"Other changes are not big, except that Chairman Mao is much older." He Zizhen said with emotion.

Yes, great men will also grow old, just like the name Shui Jing. Jing is only relative, while movement and change are eternal.
