In 1988, 84-year-old Deng Yingchao began to frequently run between the hospital and Xihua Hall . Perhaps she was really old. Gradually, she often recalled many things before, and every time she was at this time, Premier Zhou also appeared the most.
The crabapple flower in the West Flower Hall blooms brilliantly year after year. As a flower lover, Sister Deng’s longing for Premier Zhou has also increased and not decreased for many years.
So after I picked up the pen again and again, the article "Remembering Begonia Flowers in the West Flower Hall" was written. You can say it is a letter, but to a certain extent, it is more like a love letter written by Sister Deng to the Prime Minister.
"You look at the back of the flowers, as if it was yesterday, right in front of my eyes. We are admiring the crabapple flowers we love side by side, but that was not yesterday, but 12 years ago... You are gone, you left this courtyard, left us, you will not come again, but where have you been?"
From these simple words, it is not difficult for us to see the longing of Sister Deng for Premier Zhou. They have known each other since they were young and have supported each other for most of their lives. The friendship that cannot be hidden and deep nostalgic can be clearly expressed in a few words?
Deng Yingchao wrote a "love letter" to send her thoughts
1988, after retiring from her job, Deng Yingchao had more time to read and read newspapers, and in her spare time, she often went to enjoy the flowers. The more flowers I appreciated, the more drafts I left behind with my pen. In April of the same year, the article "Remembering Begonia Flowers in the West Flower Hall" came out.
Although at that time, Deng Yingchao explained to the staff members Zhao Wei and Gao Zhenpu, saying that it was
. "This article will not be published now. If I leave one day, the owners who like crabapple flowers will leave. Do you think it is suitable to publish it before publishing it, and then it will be my last work, otherwise it will be burned..."
But it is undeniable that in a certain sense, this article can really be regarded as Sister Deng's memory and remembrance of Premier Zhou. Many of the details, feelings, and even feelings mentioned in it are deeply impressed.
Unlike us ordinary people, two people may be together, and they are more about talking about some personal feelings. Deng Yingchao and Zhou Enlai's love has been revolutionary since the beginning, but although this has always been the case in the general direction, there is also a romance between them that belongs to their own individuals.
When Premier Zhou was attending the Geneva meeting, the crabapple flowers in Zhongnanhai were just in full bloom. Because he was regretful that he could not see such beautiful flowers, Sister Deng even cut off a branch and put it in a book to pass it on to Premier Zhou who was far away from abroad.
After receiving the letter, Premier Zhou was naturally very happy. However, given that he was very busy at work at that time, he did not reply immediately. Instead, after a month, he had handled the urgent matter at hand and wrote back a handwritten letter.
In the letter, Premier Zhou mentioned that because he still has work to be busy, he did not elaborate on it, but just collected flowers from the courtyard and sent them from afar to express his longing.
From such a small story, we can easily realize that Premier Zhou and Sister Deng have a good relationship. They have always cared about each other and cherished each other very much...
It may also be because of this that even though Premier Zhou has been away for twelve years, Sister Deng still misses him like this when she sees the crabapple flowers in the courtyard of the West Flower Hall.
Zhou Enlai and Deng Yingchao "determine their life"
During the May Fourth Movement in 1949, Zhou Enlai and Deng Yingchao had already met. I remember when they first met, Deng Yingchao was giving a speech on stage. Zhou Enlai didn't care too much, but later when he heard the remarks she made, he unconsciously took a look... It was a kind of like-minded attraction, and it seemed that he could feel it deeply without saying anything.After
, they naturally became good friends because both of them participated in Awakening Society . However, because Zhou Enlai was a very firm celibate at that time, no love sparks were found between them.
When Zhou Enlai went to France to study, Deng Yingchao was a teacher at the Affiliated Primary School of Beijing Normal University. During that period, the two had passed many letters, but most of them were discussing the revolution...
Perhaps because Zhou Enlai became more and more convinced that Deng Yingchao was the person he wanted to find, so after thinking about it, he confessed in the letter.
Deng Yingchao was somewhat hesitant at first about Zhou Enlai's feelings, but under the sweeping of time, she still accepted it calmly later.
1925, just simply brought a suitcase, Deng Yingchao went south from Tianjin and went to Guangzhou to find Zhou Enlai. Although Zhou Enlai had no time to pick up Deng Yingchao at that time because of busy work, Yingchao, who was very mature, did not care too much about it... After that, the two simply met and they decided to "determine their lifelong life."
There is no legendary banquet, no gift list, just a few people had a meal, Zhou Enlai and Deng Yingchao got married like this, they firmly chose to walk together, and since then they took care of and cared for each other for decades...
Because of work, Zhou Enlai has been busy, and sometimes he doesn't even have enough time to accompany Deng Yingchao, but despite this, their relationship is still very good.
"I hope you cherish it and kiss you thousands of times." "Love is long and short, and I still kiss you thousands of times."
is like this kind of love words, I don't know how many times they appeared between their letter papers......
What is love? What is like again? Sometimes I really start to feel that some likes and love have already penetrated into all aspects of life, such as him and her, like you and me.
Premier Zhou passed away, Deng Yingchao burst into tears,
Memories are always so mottled, because of regret, so I miss you even more. The crabapple flowers in the West Flower Hall bloomed and fell, fell and bloomed. It has been a full twelve years, but the scene of Premier Zhou leaving often flashed in Sister Deng's mind. To be precise, it was 1976...
11. On November 7, as usual, Sister Deng, who had been in the 305 Hospital for a long time and had taken care of Premier Zhou for many days, decided to go back to the West Flower Hall to rest and wait for tomorrow morning.
But who would have thought that it was just that coincidence. Not long after Sister Deng left, Premier Zhou woke up. His health was not in good condition, and the medical staff who were taking care of him were a little nervous. However, after seeing that the Prime Minister had nothing to do, he felt much more relieved.
It seems that it has been a long time since then. Premier Zhou said in a weak voice, "I have nothing to do here, you go and take care of other patients!" After , he stared at the door.
After realizing that the Prime Minister seemed to be looking at Sister Deng, the medical worker quickly said, "Prime Minister, Sister has just left not long ago. Do you have anything to look for her?" saw that the Prime Minister did not make any further statements. Considering that Sister Deng is older, no one thought of calling Deng Yingchao to the Prime Minister.
At that time, everyone had not realized that Premier Zhou's life had entered the countdown. Even after seeing the Prime Minister staring at the door, looking more energetic than usual, he still felt that the Prime Minister's condition had improved...
But in fact, fate is so cruel. Soon, the great Premier Zhou passed away due to illness. Even when he was dying, he could not take a look at his Xiaochao again.
said that, after returning to the West Flower Hall that day, Deng Yingchao quickly rested. When she woke up the next morning, she felt that she was still a little tired, but she was very clear about the Prime Minister's condition, so she decided to go back to the hospital after a slowdown.
The two supported each other for so many years, and Sister Deng has always known that with her by her side, her husband will be more at ease. She knows what those who don’t know, his concerns, worries, and even worries...
But she never expected that just after breakfast was finished and the rest was in the hospital The phone call came. When Zhao Wei talked about this, she felt trembling for several times. Without any hesitation, she quickly went out and walked into the car....
In fact, being called to the hospital was not the first time Deng Yingchao experienced. But looking at Zhao Wei's expression, she suddenly realized that this time might be different from the past. She dared not have any expectations, but hoped that she could have time to listen to Premier Zhou's call "Xiao Chao".
The car arrived slowly. The moment he pushed open the ward door, Deng Yingchao hoped that he could hear another "Xiao Chao", but what caught his eye was a ward that was completely different from the past.
Everything is messy, there are medical staff doing rescue, and some are sobbing. In an instant, she seems to be unable to see anything, only seeing her Enlai lying quietly on the bed... She is so sad, but she doesn't even have time to tell her sadness.
"Enlai, Enlai, I'm late..." That day, it seemed that this sentence was heard by many people. She cried so much and shed so many tears. Everyone was so sad, but our Premier Zhou still couldn't come back.
January 8, 1976, the great Premier Zhou passed away. After that, Deng Yingchao forced himself to handle his affairs and began to deal with his affairs afterwards. He followed his regret and scattered his ashes into the rivers and lands of China, such as Miyun Reservoir , etc....
Time flies in a flash, and in the blink of an eye it was twelve years later. For many years, the crabapple flowers in the West Flower Hall have been still blooming and falling. The people watching the flowers have changed from the original two to the current one, but for some reason, they can still make people notice the extremely strong longing... Perhaps this is the love and love engraved in their bones. The love of the ancestors is always so pure and hot...
