Chairman Mao devoted his life to the cause of proletarian revolution. His achievements were too dazzling, which made most people forget the role of Chairman as an ordinary father.
In fact, Chairman Mao’s education and attitude towards his children are also worth recalling. In 1948, Li Na was about to go to school. Jiang Qing made a suggestion for Li Na at that time, but Chairman Mao was very angry.
What request did she make at that time, which would make Chairman Mao so angry?
1. Chairman's daughter
Chairman Mao had many children during the revolutionary period, but most of these children died unfortunately because the conditions during the revolutionary period were very difficult, not to mention Chairman Mao, who also took into account national affairs. The departure of the children made the chairman very sad. Because of this, the birth of his youngest daughter Li Na comforted him.
The fatherly love of brothers and sisters seems to be blessed by Li Na. Li Na has received meticulous care from her parents since she was a child. During the Long March 6 period, Li Na had already lived with her mother in her womb, and when the revolutionary team arrived at the Yan'an Revolutionary Base, Li Na was born.
Compared with his previous brothers and sisters, Li Ne has relatively good living conditions. After all, Yan'an was relatively stable at that time. Not only that, Li Na was able to receive early education in kindergartens in the revolutionary base area. During this period, the Chairman spent a lot of time with Li Ne.
is different from other children. It may be because of the Long March that Li Na loved to laugh and jump out of her mind as soon as she was born, and her comrades in the base area also liked to make this little girl who loves to laugh. After learning to walk and run, Li Na did not intend to "leave" Chairman Mao.
Sometimes the Chairman likes to bask in the sun and read books in the yard. At this time, Li Na will quietly approach his father. Of course, the Chairman knew that Li Na was behind him, but he smiled without saying a word. Then, Li Ne would suddenly jump on her father's back and beg her father to play with him.
After work, the chairman often takes Li Na for a walk. Such happy times were very rare for the chairman at that time, and he cherished them very much. It was not until after 1945 that the full-scale war of resistance ended and the next goal was to carry out the War of Liberation.
During the War of Liberation, the Chairman needed to consider more issues at this time, and he didn't even have the chance to stay with his family most of the time. During this period, Li Na was always by Comrade Han Guixin ( Li Yinqiao lover), and she was here to take care of Li Na's life and study.
Li Na knew that her father was very busy, and she never took the initiative to disturb her father. On the contrary, Li Na has always regarded Chairman Mao as his role model. His father told him to study more and to contribute more to the construction of the motherland in the future. Li Na has devoted all his energy to studying and has always been an excellent student.
It is worth mentioning that Li Na's academic performance has always been very good, and the Chairman does not need to worry about his life. However, Li Na's marriage after becoming an adult has often worried the Chairman's father.
Li Na's marriage is very tortuous, but the chairman is an enlightened father and never interferes in his relationship. Four years after Li Na got married, she divorced again due to differences. The chairman at that time was already in his seventies, so she was naturally very sad about her daughter's experience.
Fortunately, Li Na stayed in Beijing after his divorce, and she also had more time to enjoy family happiness with the chairman, which was also a blessing in the hard days. As the Chairman's favorite daughter, Li Na was strictly required by the Chairman in her daily study and life.
2. The chairman rejected Jiang Qing’s request
This can be seen from a small incident that happened in Xibaipo that year.
In June 1948, the chairman's office was in Xibaipo, and the whole family also lived in Xibaipo. Although the domestic situation has stabilized, the Chairman's busyness remains the same as before. On this day, the comrades outside held a dance party, intending to relax in their busy schedules.
Li Na and several other children were playing crazy outside, but at this time Li Na found that his father had not come out yet. Ye Zilong has reminded the Chairman many times before, so that the Chairman can take a break before going outside to relax.You know, the Chairman has never seen him go out since he came to Xibaipo office. There are obviously problems with the routine of
, and many comrades have "opinions". In this regard, the chairman still does his own way. The children are noisy and Ye Zilong keeps inviting them. The chairman just waves his hand and says "go in a while." However, the brush in his hand has no intention of stopping.
Seeing this, Li Ne went to the room to see. She always liked to stick to her father, and of course her father would be present in this situation. After pushing open the door, Li Na shouted, "Dad, Dad! Why haven't you gone out yet? Uncles and aunts have already started dancing!"
Seeing the excited Li Na, the Chairman's tight brows gradually spread out, and then he realized that he had been sitting at the table for an afternoon. Then, he took Li Na's little hand and walked out. This was the first time the Chairman came out to relax since Xibaipo. Everyone was very happy, and Li Na even jumped around his father, which made everyone laugh.
After this brief relaxation, Chairman Mao devoted himself to the intense work again. Whenever Li Ne has had enough fun, she always likes to stay by her father quietly and watch Chairman Mao write one line after another. Gradually, the Chairman also discovered this habit of his daughter.
At this time, the chairman remembered that this little baby is now at the age of going to school! After discussing with the staff, they bought an empty house nearby and called all the children in Xibaipo together to prepare for the preschool class.
In the chairman's plan, Li Na naturally also had to attend class. However, there is another problem. Among his peers, Li Na has the worst physical condition. The aunt at home is afraid that Li Na will easily get sick due to trouble. The Chairman felt that it was nothing big.
Then, the chairman arranged for the aunt at home to go to school to take charge of the children's daily life, so there was no worries. However, Jiang Qing said at the time: "Let Nene study at home, I'll take care of the child and let her write."
Surprisingly, this sentence made Chairman Mao very angry, and turned to her and said, "What is this called? What is the difference between Nene and other children? Everyone can go to school, can't my family go to school? You can't be special. Besides, children should be with their peers, which will be of great help to growth. I don't agree with your suggestion."
Chairman 0's words also reminded everyone that they should not be special because Li Ne is Chairman Mao's child. Li Ne must be the same as other children no matter what he does. This is the Chairman’s educational policy: My Mao Zedong’s children must abide by the rules and keep a low profile.
3. Great people's families are even more difficult
Since then, this habit has continued. After , after the founding of New China, Li Ne began to go to Beijing to attend elementary school. Still the same as before, Chairman Mao gave Li Na's "vaccine" before Li Na's school: "In addition to studying hard after going to school, you must also remember not to tell anyone that you are Mao Zedong's daughter."
Li Na didn't know why his father said that back then, but it was very strange: I am not my father's daughter, what else can I be? But she was still very obedient and did what her father said. In addition, if you communicate with your classmates, Chairman Mao would like to remind Li Na as usual that his father was a worker or a farmer.
The chairman's family lives a simple life, and as a daughter, Li Na. As a result, when we went to school on the first day, everyone was wearing colorful new clothes, and Li Ne's clothes were not only worn but also patched. Children always like to compete, but everyone’s jokes make Xiao Line feel very wronged.
When class was held, the first text in the Chinese textbook was about Chairman Mao’s "Oriental Red". This affectionate text is people’s gratitude and praise to Chairman Mao, and the teacher wants to let the students read the text aloud in unison. Afterwards, the Chinese teacher called the children to read the text one by one.
It was Li Na's turn, and she also stood up and read the text. However, as she read, Li Na cried, and the tears in her eyes made the teacher very confused. The Chinese teacher criticized: "Student Li Na, this article is a praising Chairman Mao.Look at other students, everyone is so emotional and passionate, why are you the only one crying? "
Of course Li Na knows why she cried. She felt sorry for her father. Chairman Mao had gone through thousands of difficulties and dangers to rescue tens of millions of Chinese people. However, he is also Li Na's father. Seeing his father's experience, how could the little Li Na not feel sorry for her?
But she dared not say it or could not say it, because her father told her before going out that she must keep her identity confidential. Li Na, who was misunderstood by the teacher, felt very aggrieved. She pouted and was over again after class. I didn't go out to play, and I cried alone at the desk. After
, Chairman Mao learned about what his daughter Li Na encountered from the primary school principal. The chairman said nothing until his daughter came back from school. Li Na felt even more aggrieved when she saw her father at home. Before she put down her schoolbag, she hugged Chairman Mao and cried.
Seeing that her daughter was like this on her first day at school, the chairman felt very uncomfortable. He felt very uncomfortable. Love her daughter, but it was not Li Na's decision to become the daughter of the President of the People's Republic of China. After Li Na's mood stabilized a little, Chairman Mao quickly comforted the aggrieved child.
Slowly, Li Na also accepted this fact. She focused her attention on studying and achieved excellent results. Since then, Li Na has gradually become popular among her classmates. She and her classmates have become accustomed to her, but no one knows that she is Chairman Mao's daughter.
There are many similar things. One day in 1958, Li Na suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen. After examination, he found that it was acute gastroenteritis. Who knew that one wave had not been relieved and the other was again. At that time, the hospital accidentally broke the needle into Li Na's body during the injection. Immediately afterwards, there were continuous surgeries.
Acute gastroenteritis plus the surgery to remove the needle made Li Na miserable. To make matters worse, Li Na's wound was still in the second operation. Infected, Chairman Mao, who knew about this, was very anxious and wrote a letter to his daughter for this, asking her to survive with strong will.
Even at this time, Chairman Mao did not forget to tell the staff that all information about Li Na's illness and hospitalization must be used with a pseudonym, and no one is allowed to know Li Na's true identity.
After going to college, Li Na did not live at home, and she would go home on weekends Look at my father. However, at that time, the school was a long way from home, and Li Na either rode a bicycle or took the bus home. Once, Li Yinqiao was worried that it was unsafe to be too late, so he asked the driver to pick Li Na home.
Unexpectedly, the chairman was furious after he found out. The chairman understood Li Yinqiao's idea, but the chairman also had his own principles: the people have children, and everyone walked, rode bicycles, and took the bus. Why couldn't my children?
When the country is in the most difficult time, the Chairman himself spent the meal. Li Na's lifestyle has always been very simple. Sometimes when he comes home from school on weekends, Li Na started to eat voraciously before he put down his schoolbag. The Chairman felt sorry for the child and deliberately refused to eat, asking Li Na to eat more.
Someone once suggested that Li Na was growing up and should add a few dishes to the child, otherwise malnutrition would seriously affect his subsequent development. The Chairman did not agree, and the country was It was a difficult time. He would rather give Li Na part of his ration than take more or eat more.
does not make special - this is the Chairman's regular educational policy for himself, his family, and especially for his descendants. Not only that, the Chairman has always set an example for the simple style of work in daily life.
The style of life, life and work of a great man of a generation is always a role model that future generations should learn from.
