In the autumn of 11935, there were two wandering children on the streets of Shanghai. Where the two children didn't know, a group of anxious adults were looking for them anxiously.
These two children are Chairman Mao’s second sons - Mao Anying and Mao Anying. : After Mao Anying married Shao Hua, he asked Chairman Mao to write a poem to memorialize his wife Shao Hua. When Chairman Mao wrote "I lost my arrogance, Yang Jun lost my willow" , he wrote "I lost my willow flower, and Yang Jun lost my willow". Why is this?

The most painful things in life
In Chairman Mao’s life, wife Yang Kaihui’s heroic sacrifice is undoubtedly his most self-blame and Once you think of it, you will be heartbroken. Yang Kaihui is the mother of An Ying and An Qing. She passed away forever on November 14, 1930. , is persecuted by the Kuomintang reactionaries. Chairman Mao sighed after hearing this news:
"Kaihui's death, no one can redeem it."
and When Yang Kaihui died, Mao Anying was only 77 years old.

Yang Kaihui, Anying and Anqing
Lost her mother Mao Anqing and her brother Anying and her younger brother Anlong depend on each other, But he never thought that his younger brother Anlong would die prematurely due to illness soon after.
Anlong's departure made the two brothers very sad. In addition, the life of living under someone else's roof was very difficult. In the autumn of 1935, Anqing and his brother left their temporary "home". They would rather wander on the street than face spiritual harshness.
During the wandering period, Anqing was beaten by spy police, causing to be deaf in both ears, leaving behind the root of concussion. I thought this kind of wandering life would take a long time, but fortunately, the comrades from Shanghai Special Science Department found two children, which made the Mao brothers live a better life.

An Qing and his brother An Ying
947, Mao Anying and He Zizhen returned to Harbin together, and then Chairman Mao took An Qing to his side. years of separation between the two places did not affect the father-son relationship between the Chairman and Mao Anying.
With the encouragement and suggestions of Chairman Mao, Mao Anying chose to work in the Central Propaganda Department after the founding of New China. Relatives are around you, work smoothly and live in harmony. This faint warmth and beauty make Mao Anying deeply attached to him. However, in 1950, Anqing's brother Mao Anying died.
When the message was sent back Mao Anying was simply unbelievable and could not accept that his close relative had passed away Mao Anying soon relapsed, and The physical and mental torture made Mao Anying thinner.

1950 Mao Anying sacrificed
At that time, Chairman Mao was also very sad for An Ying's sacrifice. He could not accept that something happened to An Qing, so so arranged for An Qing to go to the Soviet Union to recuperate. It was not until that Mao Anying returned to the motherland again. After returning to China, Mao Anying has been recuperating in Dalian. Although he often communicates with his father by phone, because Chairman Mao is busy with work, the father and son rarely meet.
In the summer of 1957, Chairman Mao rushed to Dalian specially, and wanted to see if Mao Anying's health improved. While talking, Mao Anying suddenly said to his father with some nostalgia and melancholy:
"Dad, in fact, I haven't dreamed of my mother for decades. But yesterday she came and looked as good as before. She also said to me, 'Child, I can't copy articles for your father, you have to practice your calligraphy well!'"

Speaking of this Anqing inevitably recalled her brother and younger brother, and she couldn't help but start to cry. Chairman Mao's eyes also showed sadness and depression. After a while, Chairman Mao silently took out a piece of letter paper and said to his son:
"An Qing, this is a poem I wrote not long ago, look at it."
Mao Anqing took the letter paper, and it said:
"I lost my arrogance, and the willows were lightly rising to the sky nine. Ask Wu Gang , Wu Gang brought out osmanthus wine . Lonely Chang'e Stretching her sleeves, dancing for the loyal soul in the sky. Suddenly, I heard that a tiger had been hidden in the world, and tears suddenly turned into a pouring rain. "

Chairman Mao once wrote a song "Butterfly Love Flower·Answer Li Shuyi"
is exactly "Butterfly Love Flower·Answer Li Shuyi", Mao Anying was crying while reading, he knew that this was written by his father to his mother Yang Kaihui, and Chairman Mao sat on the side, smoking one after another, holding back his tears and not willing to cry.
As Chairman Mao once said with every word, "Kaihui's death, no one can redeem it for all his body ", just like Mao Anying, Chairman Mao has never forgotten and Yang Kaihui. until two years later, Chairman Mao met with Yang Kaihui's good friend - Li Shuyi , also mentioned that she wrote the poem:
"Two years ago, she sent me the words mourning Liu Zhixun, and I wrote the poem "Dielianhua·Answer Li Shuyi" and it was completely in line with her meaning. "

Chairman wrote poems to memorize
"Butterfly Love Flower·Answer Li Shuyi" is of great significance to Chairman Mao, Li Shuyi, and Mao Anying. Therefore, after Mao Anying and Shao Hua got married, the couple asked Chairman Mao to write poems to memorize on September 1, 1963, when Chairman Mao picked up his pen and started writing "Butterfly Love Flower·Answer Li Shuyi".
However, when the first sentence was finished, Mao Anying and Shao Hua felt strange because Chairman Mao wrote " I lost the sunflower and the willow", two could not help but remind Chairman Mao, saying: "Isn't it 'prideful Yang'? " Chairman Mao was silent for a moment and replied: "It is also appropriate to call it "poplar flower". "

Why did Chairman Mao write this way? Judging from the creative background of "Butterfly Love Flower·Answer Li Shuyi", the lyrics of are written by Chairman Mao when he received the lyrics of Li Shuyi to mourn her husband Liu Zhixun. uses to express his deep nostalgia and deep affection for Yang Kaihui and Liu Zhixun.
"I lost my arrogance, Yang Jun lost my willow", one "lost" words, clearly write about the loss of love, friendship, and revolution at that time. When answering Chapter Shizhao , Mr. "How to understand the two words 'areful Yang'" , Chairman Mao also bluntly said:
"Women lose their original abjection when they revolutionized, how can they not be arrogant? "
This is the pride and respect of Chairman Mao for Ms. Yang Kaihui's sacrifice for the revolution.

Chairman Mao is writing something
but closes the door. In the occasion where only son and daughter-in-law stand beside him, Chairman Mao is not just the great leader of the Republic.
If "Jiuyang" is Chairman Mao's praise of revolutionary martyrs as a leader of a country. Then "Yanghua" is simply the nickname between husband and wife. is the love of husband and wife. is the husband's love for his wife. It is the one that Chairman Mao wants to bring Yang Kaihui with him and send care and blessings to his two children. Mao Anying and Shao Hua also sighed after listening to Chairman Mao's answer:
"called 'Jiuyang' expresses his father's praise for his mother. It is called "Yanhua", which also expresses the father's closeness to his mother. ”

is not the first time they wrote
In fact, This is not the first time Chairman Mao wrote poems for Mao Anying and Shao Hua. As early as in 1959, Chairman Mao already knew Shao Hua. Because Shao Hua was studying in the Chinese Department of Peking University at that time, Chairman Mao liked to talk about history and poetry with this junior.
When talking about Cao Cao and Cao Cao’s two sons - Cao Pi and Cao Zhi , Chairman Mao also asked Shao Hua which of the three likes.
Later, the two talked about Wang Bo , Lu You ... Chairman Mao both handwritten some poems to give to Shao Hua, and these "gifts" were properly collected by Shao Hua.

Chairman Mao and Shao Hua
Later to In 1960, Shao Hua and Mao Anying entered the marriage hall. After living in Dalian for two years, Shao Hua returned to Beijing with Mao Anying. Shao Hua originally planned to continue studying at Peking University , but because she missed too many classes and couldn't keep up with her studies, she was in a low mood.
plus Mao Anqing was in poor health due to the root of concussion in his early years. The slight stimulation of forced him to stay at home and recuperate.
Learning pressure plus the pressure of taking care of your husband, caused some friction between the young couple . Chairman Mao shook his head when he found out. As a veteran, he actually understood Shao Hua's mood very well.

1962 , Chairman Mao wrote a letter to Shao Hua:
"You must be good at raising your illness and be determined to pursue your future. Your daughter should be less angry, add a little more masculine spirit, and do something for society. We hope for it. "The Legend of the Evil" article, read more."
The following content is accompanied by the whole poem "The Legend of the Evil":
1 "I want to know you, and my life will never fade. There is no mountain, the river water is exhausted. winter thunder and tremors, summer rain and snow, heaven and earth are united, so I dare to die with you!"

"Shang Xie" is a love poem in "Rao Ge". This poem is based on the sentence "There is no mountain", and uses five impossible things to happen to express how "life and death are" in your love. The whole poem is not long, but it is full of firm beliefs like rocks and passion like fire.
The poem sent by Chairman Mao with the letter made Shao Hua think of all the things he and Mao Anying had experienced. After that, the relationship between Shao Hua and Mao Anying became stable. The two often visited Chairman Mao. Shao Hua, who loved poetry, would hold her husband together and beg Chairman Mao to write poems as a souvenir.

And this move also just gave "Buttered Love Flower·Answer Li Shuyi" another tender version:
" I lost the willow You lost the willow, the willow swayed straight up to the sky nine. Asked what Wu Gang had, Wu Gang held out the osmanthus wine. The lonely Chang'e spread her sleeves, and the sky was dancing for the loyal soul. Suddenly, she reported that the tiger had been hidden in the world, and the tears flew into the sky and made her rain."
