Listening to Wu Liandeng telling stories (1), I felt sad and tearful, and the feelings of reverence and memory arose
Recently, Mr. Wu Liandeng, who was praised as Chairman Mao Shengjie's "big housekeeper", started a video column called "Wu Liandeng Tells Stories" , the first episode has started. Listening to Mr. Wu narrate the story of Chairman Mao, I feel very real, very kind, very vivid, very touching. I feel sour in my heart, my eyes are blurred with tears, and the feeling of longing for Chairman Mao is intertwined in my heart. , we miss you, old man!
Chairman Mao’s life manager Wu Liandeng worked for Chairman Mao for 12 years from 1964 to 1976. Listening to his personal account of his past experiences is heartwarming, inspiring and inspiring! Chairman Mao lived a frugal, hard and simple life, scrimping on food and clothing, which makes people sad! It also makes some people feel ashamed! It makes some people even more frightened❗This is my deep feeling and understanding after listening to the old man Wu Liandeng telling the story of Chairman Mao.
Chairman Mao devoted his whole life to the founding and development of New China. Not only did he create great achievements, he also practiced frugality and hard work in life, lived frugally, cared about the people, and shared the joys and sorrows with the people. Wu Liandeng, who had been Chairman Mao's life housekeeper for 12 years, said passionately that Chairman Mao's monthly salary was not enough: his monthly meal expenses were about 100 yuan. Even in Zhongnanhai , he had to pay for it out of his own pocket, including banquets with friends and overtime work. Chairman Mao also paid for meetings from his salary. Since Chairman Mao took the initiative to reduce his salary to level 3, 404.8 yuan per month, in the early 1960s, he never changed it until his death in 1976. The first person who received his salary was to pay party dues , and he would have to pay rent in the future. The total adds up to 49 yuan and 63 cents. There are also water bills, electricity bills, and a special expense, which is the cost of furniture, including tables, chairs, benches, sofas and carpets used in Chairman Mao’s home. This adds up to more than 80 yuan. In winter, there will be additional expenses. The heating bill cost more than 20 yuan. When Chairman Mao was alive, the elderly did not sleep on Simmons beds like we do today. They slept on wooden beds, and even this wooden bed had to pay rent. Chairman Mao's favorite food was braised pork and fish, but during the three difficult years, Chairman Mao became a vegetarian every day. Once, the staff secretly served Chairman Mao braised pork, but the Chairman said angrily: "At any time now, the people are hungry, and I still want to eat meat. Who made it? If he wants to eat, he will take it." Go eat."
The wooden bed where Chairman Mao slept
The old man Wu Liandeng recalled that Chairman Mao lived a very frugal life. He did not have delicacies from the mountains and seas, just homely meals, four raisins and one soup, except for the New Year and Chairman Mao's birthday, which could only be added with permission. One time, Wu Liandeng asked the chef to make Haisheng for Chairman Mao out of good intentions. Chairman Mao asked him about Xiao Wu. Do you know the price of this sea cucumber ? He replied, I know, it is more expensive than other dishes. Chairman Mao criticized on the spot: Can ordinary people eat these things? Let me tell you, from now on I will not be allowed to bring these things to the house to make tables and cutlery. When will you give it to me? After all Chinese people have eaten it, you can feed it to me. Chairman Mao had the people in his heart, thinking about the people all the time, and was diligent and thrifty everywhere. Wu Liandeng recalled that when he was serving food to Chairman Mao, he found that Chairman Mao was picking up rice grains on the table and eating them. Wu Liandeng quickly said: "Chairman, don't eat if it falls on the table. It's unhygienic!" But Chairman Mao didn't. He ignored it and continued to pick up all the grains of rice and eat them. While eating, he said: "It is not easy for farmers to grow food. Don't waste it. Don't underestimate these few grains of rice. We just want to promote a spirit and don't waste it."
Chairman Mao's Pajamas After wearing it for more than 20 years, the patches came one after another. The staff couldn't stand it anymore. They thought it was too old and wanted Chairman Mao to change it. But Chairman Mao said: "I'm used to it, and this one is still easier to wear with patches on top of each other." "People carefully counted more than 70 patches. The founding leaders of the country were like this. It is a case that warns some people and is also an example to spur young people.After Chairman Mao passed away on September 9, 1976, Wu Liandeng said that except for more than 500 yuan of living expenses left after Chairman Mao's death (later these few hundred yuan were also collected as cultural relics), no one was left in any bank, whether domestic or foreign. Passbook, not a penny of savings; neither a high-end There was not a single piece of gold, silver or jewelry in the clothing; nor was there any material legacy left to the children, such as a penny, a house, or a ridge of land. The staff sorted out Chairman Mao’s relics and found that they were all rags. Listen, listen. Tears welled up in my eyes. This is the founding leader of the country. This is the leader of the people. This is the great leader. Chairman Mao, you did not leave any material property to your children, but you left a precious spiritual legacy to the Chinese nation.
This is the great leader Chairman Mao, who was diligent and frugal throughout his life, caring about the world and sharing the joys and sorrows of the people, serving the people wholeheartedly, and doing his best to die. This cannot help but be sad! At the same time, it also makes some people feel ashamed! It makes some people even more frightened! Once upon a time, in order to achieve certain goals, some intellectuals and idiots demonized the founding leaders of the country, slandered the people's leaders, and insulted the great leaders for decades. It is today that justice is restored to history. Reproduce Chairman Mao’s great achievements. The public is eternal and the private is temporary. Those unscrupulous public intellectuals and insidious trolls will surely be punished by history and nailed to the pillar of shame!
