The great leader Chairman Mao celebrated his 70th birthday in 
962-26 . For Chinese people, the age of seventy is of great significance. On this day, Chairman Mao specially instructed the secretary to prepare two tables of meals and invited four respected elderly people to attend.
Zhang Shizhao
Among the four old men, including Hunanese Zhang Shizhao , the one who accompanied him to attend the birthday party was his adopted daughter Chengzhi . Chairman Mao did not stop learning in his later years. When he learned that Zhang Hanzhi was a teacher at Foreign Language School, he immediately said to her seriously: "Teacher Zhang, are you willing to be my teacher and teach me English?"
Zhang Hanzhi did not expect that the great man in front of him who is respected by everyone in the Chinese nation was willing to worship her as his teacher, and immediately said : "I dare not be, Chairman, you are our teacher." For a period of time after , Zhang Hanzhi went to Zhongnanhai almost every week to teach Chairman Mao to learn English, and the two also formed a deep friendship.
Chapter Hanzhi
Later, in some important occasions to receive foreign guests, Zhang Hanzhi often served as Chairman Mao’s personal translator. After a meeting for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, just as the participants were having a smile on their faces, Chairman Mao suddenly turned his head and said to Zhang Hanzhi: "Teacher Zhang, your man is not loyal to marriage, why don't you divorce him?"
Zhang Hanzhi did not expect Chairman Mao to talk about this topic, and tears immediately flowed down, and asked Chairman Mao not to say this in front of everyone, but Chairman Mao still advised her that women in the new era must liberate themselves.
As Zhang Shizhao's adopted daughter, Zhang Hanzhi grew up with the golden key in his childhood. After graduating from high school, he was successfully admitted to the Beijing Foreign Languages College and later joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In the eyes of others, she is a proud daughter of heaven and her life should be perfect. But in terms of marriage, Zhang Hanzhi fell into trouble.
At a dance party, Zhang Hanzhi met her first husband Hong Junyan . At that time, Hong Junyan was a famous top student at Peking University , and Zhang Hanzhi was also a cardamom girl . During the gradual relationship, the two established a relationship, and went through 8 years of long-distance love run, and eventually became husband and wife. But after the birth of his daughter, Hong Huang, , the marriage began to rift.
After Hong Junyan was transferred to the rural area for renovation, he had an improper relationship with a local female teacher. This incident soon reached Zhang Hanzhi's ears, and the two had a big quarrel. Although they did not get divorced, their hearts could no longer be together.
In 1971 , Zhang Hanzhi suddenly received a call from Chairman Mao, inviting her to work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. At that time, the famous diplomat Qiao Guanhua was the leader of Zhang Hanzhi. Zhang Hanzhi, who had just joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, looked like a stinky student.
Once, Zhang Hanzhi quickly climbed up the steps in front of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building. A colleague behind hurriedly grabbed Zhang Hanzhi and said to him : "There is Minister Qiao in front, don't bump into him." Chapter Hanzhi has heard of Minister Qiao Guanhua of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for a long time, but he didn't expect Minister Qiao to be so old, especially when she heard that his wife had just passed away and his own health was not good, she couldn't help but feel more sympathy for him in her heart.
But there are few opportunities for two people to get along alone. 971 , all China's legal rights in the United Nations were restored by the United Nations. At that time, Qiao Guanhua, as the head of the Chinese diplomatic delegation, specially presided over the reception in the meeting room of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
But that day, Zhang Hanzhi had to listen to the content of the meeting outside the gate because he was late. At this time, Qiao Guanhua began to call out the name as usual, so that everyone could get to know each other. When Qiao Guanhua's name was called, many people didn't know where to look for people.
The embarrassed Zhang Hanzhi stood up awkwardly, nodded, and quickly returned to his seat and sat down. Unexpectedly, at this time, Qiao Guanhua walked straight to her and said to him : "You are the daughter of Mr. Zhang Xing."
After this, the contact between the two began to increase, and in Zhang Hanzhi's heart, he had a little more affection for this elegant Foreign Minister .
Not long after, due to a vote, he asked Qiao Guanhua for instructions. When Zhang Hanzhi went to find him, he saw Qiao Guanhua and a delegation leader having lunch while discussing matters.
Chapter Hanzhi was waiting quietly outside the door. Since this document needs to be processed quickly, Zhang Hanzhi looked at it. During the break, they ran in and asked Qiao Guanhua to take a look at the vote. However, they didn't expect that Qiao Guanhua didn't like to interrupt others' speeches the most, so they got angry with her.
At this time, Zhang Hanzhi held back his tears and retreated. After waiting for a long time, after the leaders of the group finished their meal, Zhang Hanzhi quickly walked to Qiao Guanhua and asked him to look at this urgent document again.
Qiao Guanhua, who was very tired at the time, said to Zhang Hanzhi again: "You just want to exhaust me and don't let me take a breath at all. " At this time, Zhang Hanzhi, who had endured aggrievance for a long time, threw the documents on the table and said to him : "Do you like to read it or not? Anyway, there will be a vote in the afternoon. Then you can ask Secretary Cheng to give it to me. "
After saying that, Zhang Hanzhi ran to his office with tears in his eyes. She said angrily to her colleagues: "I will not serve this Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the government office. I don't want to be an angry person. " After a while, Secretary Cheng came over with the plan and comforted her and said: "Minister Qiao's burden is too heavy, and his wife just passed away recently, so you have to take more burdens. "
After hearing this, Zhang Hanzhi felt a little better. But then, the two had many conflicts due to some things. But while getting along, Qiao Guanhua's feelings for and dependence on her "tempered" colleague increased greatly, and she often chatted with her.
At that time, Zhang Hanzhi was suffering from her husband Hong Junyan and tortured her in marriage. Qiao Guanhua often comforted her after hearing about her. At the beginning, after Chairman Mao persuaded Zhang Hanzhi to divorce, she made up her mind to end the marriage.
Chapter Hanzhi After the divorce, Qiao Guanhua finally said that after trying many times, he said to Zhang Hanzhi affectionately: "Are you willing to marry me? " And this sentence completely ignited the deep feelings in Zhang Hanzhi's heart.
But after calming down, he still said to Qiao Guanhua : "Thank you, but this is impossible. "Qiao Guanhua on the other end of the phone was both anxious and disappointed. He urgently asked Zhang Hanzhi what the reason was, and Zhang Hanzhi told him that it was a factor from the social level.
Chapter Hanzhi knew very well that if the public knew the relationship between the two, the public opinion and prejudice from the society, they would always keep their heads down. More importantly, a woman in her 30s combined with a 60-year-old man with two adult children. Even if the other party has a very prominent identity, this relationship is destined not to be blessed by everyone.
but did not give up, Qiao Guanhua immediately wrote a long letter to express her heart to Qiao Guanhua. In order to make her understand her inner thoughts, he often called Zhang Hanzhi and said affectionately to her: "If we love each other sincerely, why are we afraid that others will say anything? "
Chapter Hanzhi
The affectionate and persistent Qiao Guanhua moved Zhang Hanzhi. She repeatedly asked herself in her heart, did he want Qiao Guanhua's innocent love? But in her opinion, this secular vision is obviously a huge gap that splits the two.
One day, after get off work, Qiao Guanhua found Zhang Hanzhi and said to her affectionately: "Don't say anything, now we just want the future. " Chapter Hanzhi left deep tears at this time and firmly believed that he would be with him forever.
It was also on the same day that Chairman Mao specially called her to celebrate her new life. Afterwards, the news of her falling in love with Qiao Guanhua began to spread in society. As she thought, various remarks about the two people were circulated in society.
Chapter Hanzhi
One day, as soon as Zhang Hanzhi arrived at the unit, he saw Secretary Cheng walking in front of the building, waiting for her. It turned out that Qiao Guanhua was drunk last night and kept calling her. When Zhang Hanzhi rushed to Qiao Guanhua's office, he was drunk and shouted : "Where is Zhang Hanzhi? Where is it?..." Hearing these words, Zhang Hanzhi could no longer hold it back, and her tears blurred her eyes.
In that year, Qiao Guanhua and Zhang Hanzhi, who were 22 years apart, left their status, reputation and age far behind. They walked together regardless of the various remarks of society. At that time, a voice circulating in society was that Zhang Hanzhi married Qiao Guanhua for the sake of "My wife". In fact, the two were just driven by their feelings.
At that time, Premier Zhou also heard the love story between the two. Faced with all kinds of rumors in society, Premier Zhou said calmly: "The two of you are in love, what can you make a fuss about?" After the two officially dating, Chairman Mao immediately named Zhang Hanzhi and joined the national plan to cultivate female diplomats.
But in the face of Chairman Mao’s request, Zhang Hanzhi hesitated. She wanted to start a family with Qiao Guanhua and spend the rest of her life happy time together. And this rare opportunity for happiness also made Zhang Hanzhi cherish it very much. She often said to Qiao Guanhua affectionately: "...You are no longer young, and I will not leave your side..."
And after hearing Zhang Hanzhi rejected Chairman Mao’s request, Qiao Guanhua immediately said to her melancholy: "That's Chairman Mao's decision, you should think about it again." and Zhang Hanzhi firmly said to him : "It's okay, I will tell the Chairman in detail again."
A few days later, Zhang Hanzhi personally found Chairman Mao and told him the deep-seated reasons why he didn't want to be a female ambassador. After hearing Zhang Hanzhi's inner thoughts, Chairman Mao did not persist. But this incident still made Chairman Mao obsessed with it. Once again, Chairman Mao took Zhang Hanzhi's hand and said to her excitedly: "You didn't listen to me, you didn't have me in your heart."
Chairman Mao's words made Zhang Hanzhi feel very guilty. But he felt that this relationship was not easy for her. She did not regret her decision because she had already regarded her feelings as the greatest wealth in her life.
Later, after the adoptive father Zhang Shizhao passed away, Premier Zhou was concerned about their residence after marriage. Zhang Hanzhi said to Premier Zhou : "Guanhua got a house in the diplomatic part, and we are going to move in." Premier Zhou was worried that Zhang Hanzhi and her elder brother would move out one after another, and Zhang Shizhao's old house was left unsupported. After saying that, Premier Zhou stared at Zhang Hanzhi and said : "You can also move to Zhang Hanzhi's house to live."
. Zhang Hanzhi was afraid that others would misunderstand Qiao Guanhua, so he hurriedly said to Premier Zhou: "Qiao Guanhua listens to me, but he is a high-ranking official, and living in his house is most reasonable."
. Premier Zhou continued to ask Qiao Guanhua : "This must be your own decision, but your heart Is there any idea of men being superior to women? "
Qiao Guanhua hurriedly explained to the Prime Minister : "I don't have this idea. I am definitely willing to move to Xing Lao. Xing Lao's house is big and bright enough."
Premier Zhou smiled with a gratitude and said : "That's it, Guanhua, where do you want to move to Xing Lao?" After hearing this, Chairman Mao also joked that Qiao Guanhua was the son-in-law who came to the door. After
. Zhang Hanzhi and Qiao Guanhua live their sweet two-person world in Shijia Hutong . While enjoying ordinary life, the two of them fell in love with each other, leaving behind happy memories.
Qiao Guanhua died of cancer in 1983. That period was the darkest for Man Zhang. Her sobs echoed throughout Shijia Hutong and Siheyuan.Zhang Hanzhi chose to use the method of publishing books to commemorate this love. She has successively compiled and published books such as "Me and Qiao Guanhua", "Remembering the Chairman, Remembering the Father, Remembering Guanhua", " Crossing the Thick Red Door " and . After
, Zhang Hanzhi hid this relationship deeply in his heart. After decades of knowing, she mentioned her husband Qiao Guanhua again. In his later years, Zhang Hanzhi often said to the people around him: "It has been 25 years since Qiao Guanhua passed away. We are both people with temperament... In the ten years of living with him, I understand that a person's sincerity for emotions is the most precious wealth in his life..."
Zhang Hanzhi was born in a famous family, had outstanding appearance, and was talented, but such a talented woman had an inseparable yearning for feelings. She often says : "I would rather give up all this in exchange for peace of life."
Chapter Hanzhi passed away
A generation of talented women died in Beijing in January 2008 due to respiratory disease at the age of 73. Daughter Hong Huang accompanied her through the last years of her life. But what happened with her was that unforgettable love.
