In 1998, floods were flooded in many places in my country, and Sangzhi County, Hunan Province also encountered floods that had not been encountered for many years and the disaster was very serious, which had threatened the lives and property of the people.
At that time, the leader of Sangzhi County went to Beijing to call. The person who answered the call was an old man over 80 years old. After hearing about the disaster in Sangzhi County, the old man was in a heavy mood.
After putting down the phone, the old man called his children to his side and asked them to actively participate in the disaster relief activities in Sangzhi County and do something for their "father's" hometown.
With the efforts of the elderly and their children, they have raised more than 2 million yuan in money and materials to fully help the people of Sangzhi County overcome difficulties.
This old man is Marshal He Long's wife Xue Ming...
Of course, Xue Ming is not only He Long's wife, she is also an excellent proletarian revolutionary, a very outstanding and legendary woman.
1:
Xue Ming's original name is Wang Aizhen. He was born in 1916 in a poor peasant family in Ba County, Hebei Province. In addition to her, there is a sister in the family.
When Xue Ming was still young, his father died of illness, and the pillars of the family collapsed, making the already poor family even worse.
But Xue Ming's mother is a very strong woman. Her husband's death and family difficulties did not defeat her. On the contrary, she took on the responsibility of supporting her family with her weak shoulders.
In addition, Xue Ming's mother was also very open-minded. In such a difficult environment, she would also save money to support Xue Ming in reading, telling her: "If the poor want to change their destiny, they must study. "
Xue Ming was determined to take a path through reading and let his mother and sister live a good life. But at that time, Xue Ming and his mother didn't know that Xue Ming not only rewritten his destiny through reading, but also embarked on the revolutionary path.
At that time, there were several teachers with progressive ideas in the school where Xue Ming was studying. The teachers often used their spare time to promote some progressive ideas to Xue Ming and others. Xue Ming began to have some ignorant understanding of the revolution.
After graduating from elementary school, Xue Ming entered Tianjin's March 8 Girls' Middle School. When he arrived at this school, Xue Ming officially accepted the influence of new ideas, and she would also actively participate in different forms of revolutionary activities organized by the school.
In 1931, the Japanese occupied the Northeast and arrested many migrant workers in Tianjin, allowing these migrant workers to work for them, and then brutally killed the migrant workers.
Seeing that the Chinese people were slaughtered, a fire rose in Xue Ming's heart. She felt personally that if the country falls behind, it will be beaten, and revolution is also a must-take.
By 1935, with the outbreak of the "Dec.9" movement in Beijing, a climax of anti-Japanese war was set off across the country. At this time, the 19-year-old Xue Ming's revolutionary thought had been fully mature, and she followed her classmates to march.
They walked on the street, shouting slogans and emitting anti-Japanese leaflets. In that cold winter, Xue Ming felt the blood in his body boiling.
It was also at this time that Xue Ming's ideal changed tremendously. In the past, she studied just to let her family live a good life, but now she strongly felt that only when the "mother" in society is liberated can her mother be liberated.
In this way, with lofty ideals and pursuit of revolution, in 1936, Xue Ming joined the Communist Party of China, from an ordinary female student to a party member who solemnly swore under the party flag.

After joining the party, Xue Ming was appointed as a traffic officer of the Tianjin underground party, mainly engaged in the liaison work of the Tianjin Women's Federation, Student Union and the People's First. After Japan bombed Tianjin, Xue Ming formed a petition group with other members and went south to call on everyone to fight against Japan.
Xue Ming and others walked all the way to Shanghai. After Shanghai fell, she was sent to Jiangxi and was appointed as the deputy leader of the Jiangxi Women's Life Improvement Association and the director of Fengcheng County Refugee Nursing Hospital. Her main task was to organize women to support the War of Resistance.
A year later, Xue Ming was sent to Yan'an, a revolutionary holy land. Here, Xue Ming's ability was maximized. She served as the instructor of the female cadre class of the Women's University, and later participated in the democratic election of Qingjian County, and her work ability was recognized by the leaders and organizations.
1941, Xue Ming was transferred to Yan'an County, Northwest Bureau as the Organization Minister. It was also here that Xue Ming met her future revolutionary partner He Long.
The year before I met Xue Ming, He Long and his wife Jian Xianren officially divorced due to their disagreement in personality, and He Long, who is already 45 years old, became a bachelor again.
Since the divorce, He Long has to be busy with revolutionary work and take care of his family. He seems busy and tired, and the comrades in Yan'an have begun to arrange marriages for him.
But He Long, who has experienced several relationships, really doesn’t have much expectations for marriage. No matter what his comrades say, he just doesn’t respond and keeps saying: “ I am very good alone, I can do the revolution steadily. .”
It was not until He Long met Xue Ming that his thoughts changed. In fact, He Long was also resistant to Xue Ming at the beginning, because Xue Ming was an intellectual. He Long said bluntly: "We can't get little intellectuals ."
In He Long's impression, some of the little intellectuals in Yan'an were too high-profile and completely contrary to his personality. However, when the comrades told He Long about Xue Ming's revolutionary experience, He Long took back his "prejudice" and agreed to meet Xue Ming.
A few days later, Xue Ming was working. His superior leader Chen Zhengren suddenly said: "Two leaders came from above, and he asked Xue Ming to report on his work."
As a result, Xue Ming walked into the cave and saw that He Long and Gao Gang were sitting inside. Before that, she had never directly reported to such a big leader, and she felt a little nervous.
However, when it comes to work, Xue Ming's nervousness disappeared, giving people a feeling of grace and generosity. He Long found that she really did not have the pretentiousness of a little intellectual, and was very satisfied.
Xue Ming thought this was just a simple report work, and she never thought that she would be married to He Long...

Shortly after this meeting, Xue Ming received a notice that her superiors sent her to study at the Northwest Bureau. Xue Ming went there with the spirit of learning, but he didn't know that this study schedule was intentionally arranged.
One day, Chen Zhengren found Xue Ming again and said, " Commander He Long just came back from the front line. He doesn't know much about his studies during this period. You are responsible for repaying him."
As soon as Chen Zhengren finished speaking, He Long had arrived at the door. After Xue Ming reported on his work, He Long turned around and left without saying anything. This wave of operation made Xue Ming feel a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
In the next ten days, Xue Ming almost always reported to He Long. She really had nothing to report, so she couldn't help but find Chen Zhengren and said bluntly: "Leader, I really have nothing to report on my work every day. When will I let me go back to Yan'an County?"
Chen Zhengren saw that the temperature was almost the same, so he simply opened the skylight and said to light it: " is your job. Commander He Long and I have heard enough of it, so I will just say it directly. Commander He is interested in you, but he is not good at expressing himself. So, do you think about this matter carefully? "
Xue Ming's face turned red as soon as he heard it. She respected He Long very much, but she had never considered the relationship at all, and was not mentally prepared at all. She only replied: ", let me consider it! "
As a result, Xue Ming had considered it for a month but had no formal response. He Long was ashamed to confess his love. The two started a tug-of-war. Chen Zhengren couldn't stand it anymore, so he simply led Xue Ming to He Long's cave.
He Long was reading the newspaper at that time. When he saw that the person coming in was Xue Ming, the leader who had been through the battlefield was actually a little nervous. Chen Zhengren said: "I have brought you the person. If you have anything, please tell me in person! ." After that, he turned around and left.
He Long and Xue Ming, look at me, I look at you, neither of them knows how to speak, or He Long took the initiative to break the deadlock: " I have a good impression of you, you have a high ideological awareness and a professional background, we can complement each other, have you considered your own personal problems?"
Facing He Long's confession, Xue Ming's heart was up and down. She knew He Long's legendary revolutionary experience very well. Facing such a wise and brave man, it seems a bit fake to say he is not moved.
But after all, it is a marriage event. You can't settle down because of a moment of admiration. After thinking for a while, Xue Ming responded: " now has such a heavy revolution. I don't want to consider getting married yet. Let's talk about it in three years!"
didn't think so. He Long actually said: "Three years, okay, then let's wait for three years! " This was something Xue Ming didn't expect, and she suddenly felt a little moved.
After this meeting, the two people were still in a state of stagnation. Just when Chen Zhengren was planning to continue pushing, things finally turned around.

That day, Xue Ming went to report to He Long. There were dark clouds on the originally sunny day. Xue Ming was worried that it would rain and stood up to say goodbye. He Long said : "I'll give you a piece."
As a result, just as he walked out, the heavy rain poured down. In a few minutes, the yellow dirt road turned into a mud pond. If he accidentally, Xue Ming's feet were stuck in the mud and could not be pulled out.
He Long looked at it and stretched out his hand and said, "Come on, I'll pull you a handful of !" At that time, He Long was wearing and a pair of long leather boots, a white shirt tied in his pants, his legs were very long, his steps were very big, and he looked very majestic. At that moment, Xue Ming's heart was moved. As a result, in the afternoon of that day, the matter of He Long sending Xue Ming spread. Someone also saw He Long pulling Xue Ming and said, " must have been done. We all took a walk and held hands together. ."
Back to his residence, Xue Ming also began to seriously consider the matter between her and He Long, and basically recognized He Long in his heart.
The next day, Peng Zhen found Xue Ming again and said directly: "Xue Ming, Lao He is too busy with work and has no time to talk about love with you in the cave. If you think it is okay, just get married directly! "
Xue Ming is reasonable. She knows that the war is heavy now, so she doesn't have time to spend the moon, so she nodded and said, " I have no objection."
A few days later, under the arrangement of comrades, He Long and Xue Ming held a wedding ceremony in the cave. Although everything is simple, Xue Ming is happy to be able to marry a man he admires and admires.
This year, Xue Ming was 26 years old and He Long was 46 years old. Since then, they have accompanied each other and become revolutionary couples who can share blessings and share hardships.
Xue Ming and He Long have completely different personalities. Xue Ming is gentle and implicit, and He Long has a flamboyant personality, but this does not affect their relationship at all.
After marriage, Xue Ming not only took care of He Long's diet and daily life, but also became his right-hand man in work, helping him deal with a large amount of telegram work, greatly alleviating He Long's work pressure.
After the founding of New China, although his life was stable, He Long's task on his shoulders became heavier. As his wife, Xue Ming firmly told himself: "You must take good care of He Long and his family, and you can't let him have any worries."
Because He Long has diabetic , for his health, Xue Ming worked a lot of work, especially in his diet, which took a lot of time, but she didn't feel troublesome at all.
Many times, He Long works until the second half of the night. Often, when his car arrives in the yard, Xue Ming has already started cooking in the kitchen, ensuring that He Long can eat hot meals when he enters the house.
At work, Xue Ming also helped He Long share the burden as much as possible. At that time, He Long had to process a lot of files. Xue Ming would read all the files in advance and then tell the secretary in simple language.
Take advantage of the opportunity to walk and the secretary can report the content of the document to He Long, so that He Longji got a rest and listened to the document, and his ideological pressure was not that great.
Of course, good marriages are all in two directions, and He Long does not hide his love for Xue Ming at all. He clearly remembers the dishes Xue Ming likes to eat, and always takes the initiative to pick up food for his wife at the dinner table.
Sometimes, when you meet Xue Ming who likes to eat, He Long will say to the children: "Have less , your mother loves to eat this dish. ." The children are a little jealous.
It’s a pity that God only gave He Long and Xue Ming 27 years. On June 9, 1969, Marshal He Long passed away his great and legendary life due to illness.
This year, Xue Minggang was 53 years old and was separated from his beloved God forever. Later, at He Long's memorial service, although Xue Ming was very restrained, her tears still couldn't stop flowing out. How she hoped her husband could wait until "dawn".
Fortunately, Xue Ming ushered in a "sunny day" for her husband. She continued to serve the country and the people with her husband's last wish. Even after retiring, Xue Ming did not fully enjoy the joy of family, but continued to do something for the country within her ability.
In the second half of her life, although without He Long's company, Xue Ming still firmly believed in her beliefs and served the party wholeheartedly. At the same time, she cultivated her children's family into talents. If her husband had knowledge underground, he would have no regrets.
However, Xue Ming experienced another blow in his later years, that was that his beloved son He Pengfei died of illness. That year, Xue Ming was already 85 years old. The pain of a white-haired man sending a black-haired man made Xue Ming aged a lot.
At that time, her family and old comrades were very worried about Xue Ming, but she once again defeated the test of fate with her strength, allowing the world to see the tenacity and inner strength of an old revolutionary.
On August 11, 2011, Xue Ming died of illness in Beijing at the age of 95. She was also the last of the top ten marshals who died.
At this time, it has been 42 years since her beloved husband passed away. She finally saw a brand new China for her husband, and they can finally reunite in another world....
