1972, the 79-year-old Chairman Mao looked at Zhang Yaoci in front of him and asked happily: "I ask you to help me visit Li Na , how is she?"
Zhang Yaoci responded, while hesitating: "I'm in good health, but..."
Seeing Zhang Yaoci's eyes dodging, Chairman Mao's expression changed a little: "What's wrong with her?"
"She is in a bad situation now, I hope you can help her 8,000 yuan."
Why is Chairman Mao's daughter in a dilemma of shortage of money? What choice did Chairman Mao make after learning about this?
The most beloved child
Chairman Mao has
This does not mean that Chairman Mao is partial to the children, but because Li Na is the child who has been with Chairman Mao for the longest time.
Li Ne's brothers and sisters were mostly born in the most difficult years, because of various reasons Chairman Mao could not be with him.
After Li Na was born in 1940, Chairman Mao has always loved her very much. He would take Li Na for a walk from time to time and tell stories to Li Na every night.
At that time, Chairman Mao called Li Na Big Doll , while Li Na called Chairman Mao Xiao Dad.
For Chairman Mao, Li Na is his most caring little cotton-padded jacket.
When time came to 1970, Chairman Mao's "big doll" had become
The reason why Chairman Mao felt sad was mainly because Li Na had not found an ideal husband that year.
Although the whole country had already been liberated at that time, as parents, Chairman Mao was still very concerned about his daughter's marriage.
Every time Chairman Mao talks about marriage, Li Na always uses various reasons to make excuses, either saying that he has not met the right person yet, or saying that he does not want to leave the "little father".
Until one day when I was taking a walk, Chairman Mao thought that the time was almost over, so he told Li Na earnestly: "We have to find and get along with ourselves. If you just think that no one is suitable for you and don't get along with others, then no one will be close to you."
Chairman Mao said this, his expression was a little serious, which made Li Na lower his head aggrievedly.
As soon as he saw his daughter's expression, Chairman Mao hurriedly continued: "Dad didn't force you to get married, but dad couldn't be by your side forever. You have to find someone to take care of yourself."
Hearing this, Li Na nodded and promised: "Okay, I will find a partner seriously."
After this exchange, Li Na left his father's side and was transferred to Jinxian County, Jiangxi Province for work. The reason why
was transferred to such a far place is mainly because Chairman Mao has always strictly demanded his children and refused to give any preferential treatment. So almost every child of his children is trained from the bottom.
, and during this time working in
Marriage and Divorce
There is a Youth surnamed Xu . When he came to the Wuqi Cadre School to do business, he saw Li Na who was working.
In a moment, Xiao Xu was attracted by the woman who was 4 years older than him and pursued her crazy pursuit.
Xiao Xu is a enthusiastic, cheerful, down-to-earth and hardworking young man. Many people advised Li Na to accept Xiao Xu's pursuit. Not only did Li Na agree to Chairman Mao to find her husband at that time, she was not so anxious.
It was not until Xiao Xu chased Li Na for half a year that Li Na nodded and agreed to date Xiao Xu.
Another half a year later, the two of them, who were getting closer and closer, reached the point of talking about marriage.
When Chairman Mao heard the news that Li Na was about to get married, he was overjoyed. immediately sent Li Na a set of Marx and Engagement from Beijing as a gift to congratulate them on their marriage.
Although Chairman Mao was unable to come to the wedding scene due to health and other reasons, he still sent blessings to his beloved daughter.
Li Na and Xiao Xu got along very happily in the first year of their newlywed marriage. But when the two children were born, their relationship suddenly changed drastically.
Perhaps it is because the two have different living environments since childhood. Their family life has begun to be unable to maintain after having children. The originally loving couple suddenly started quarreling every day. Such emotional discords in
made Li Na, who had not yet finished confinement in , suffered a lot, and finally decided to divorce Xiao Xu, , .
After the divorce, the child was taken care of by Li Na himself. Although Xiao Xu did not ignore them, Li Na had lost her job to give birth to a child.
Take care of the children alone and have no source of income, which makes Li Ne's life very difficult.
So in 1972, when Zhang Yaoci came to visit Li Na instead of Chairman Mao , Li Na had no choice but to say: "Brother Zhang, can you help me ask for some money for my little father? I have to work and take care of my children alone, so I can't hold on."
Zhang Yaoci saw all the difficulties in Li Na's life, so after returning to Beijing, he told Chairman Mao about this.
Chairman Mao felt very distressed when he heard this. However, Chairman Mao didn't have much money in his hand, so he could only take out 8,000 from the manuscript fee he had saved and handed it over to Li Ne.
The 8,000 yuan of
may not be much now, but it was enough for a family to spend more than half a year at that time. For Chairman Mao, who has always been frugal, this was a heavy bleeding.
Just as Zhang Yaoci was about to leave, Chairman Mao suddenly called Zhang Yaoci: "Comrade Yaoci, please give me 8,000 royalties to Li Min."
Chairman Mao's eldest daughter Li Min also gave birth to his second child that year.
However, there is no discord between Li Min and her husband, and life is also happy and fulfilling. Why did Chairman Mao suddenly give Li Min 8,000 yuan?
turbulent
Chairman Mao’s third wife He Zizhen was originally the secretary beside Chairman Mao. The two fell in love with each other during a long period of interaction and became husband and wife.
But because those years were the most arrogant and domineering times of the reactionaries, the two had no time to care about their children's love and ran around in the war. Li Min was not born until the end of Long March 3.
After Li Min was born, He Zizhen had to go to the Soviet Union for medical treatment because of the symptoms left during the Long March.
In fact, in addition to this reason, He Zizhen also had some conflicts with Chairman Mao, so she let go of her young daughter and prepared to leave.
Chairman Mao also sent someone to save He Zizhen, but He Zizhen only gave Chairman Mao a white handkerchief , which said the four words "Farewell from now on" , which means that her marriage to Chairman Mao ends here.
In the following time, Chairman Mao was busy with the struggle against Japanese imperialism and had no time to take care of the children. He could only help with friends such as Kang Keqing and Deng Yingchao.
Until Li Min was 4 years old, Chairman Mao was worried that He Zizhen missed her child too much, so he sent Li Min to He Zizhen to reunite the mother and son.
In 1947, He Zizhen, who was nearly 40 years old, was in good health, so she took Li Min back to China and lived in Harbin.
At this time, she and Chairman Mao have been separated for 10 years, and her heart is no longer as impulsive as when she was young. She originally planned to take her child to meet Chairman Mao, but unfortunately, due to some changes, the train she took failed to arrive in Beijing.
Until 1949, Li Min was sent to Beijing by He Zizhen, allowing Chairman Mao to reunite women.
Li Min was 13 years old at that time, and it had been nearly ten years since her last meeting with her father.
At first, Li Min didn't know that her father was Chairman Mao. On the one hand, she was still young when she got along with Chairman Mao, and on the other hand, He Zizhen had never told her.
After the father and daughter reunite, the increasingly mature Chairman Mao and He Zizhen also resumed communication. The two people who have not said a word for more than ten years seem to have regained some of their former relationships.
After the founding of New China, Chairman Mao was still busy with everything he had, but he was far from busy during the war. He had more time to accompany Li Min to make up for Li Min’s lack of fatherly love.
Chairman Mao loves Li Min very much, but Chairman Mao still believes that he cannot make up for his debts to He Zizhen and his daughter.
Especially Li Min, she was unable to feel her parents' company like other children because of her parents' conflicts at a young age.
However, Li Min is a strong child. She has never blamed her parents for this, but just silently wants to live her own life.
When time came to the 1950s, Li Min fell in love with Beijing Aeronautics teacher Kong Linghua during a study session, and planned to get married in 1959.
When Chairman Mao learned from 23-year-old Li Min that she was about to marry Kong Linghua, Chairman Mao was both happy and reluctant. But looking at the smile on his daughter's face, he still said: "I'm sure there's no problem with this. Go and ask your mother."
He Zizhen naturally would not object to this, so Kong Linghua and Li Min entered the palace of marriage.
After getting married, Li Min joined the National Defense Science and Technology Commission and lived with Kong Linghua in a residential house in an alley in Beijing. She could not tell that she was Chairman Mao’s daughter at all.
Perhaps such an ordinary and happy life is exactly what Chairman Mao hopes that the children can get.
In 1960, when Li Min's first child was born, Chairman Mao was overjoyed and excitedly said to everyone: "I am 70 years old, and now I am promoted to a grandpa again!"
At the same time, Chairman Mao also named the child, named "Kong Jining" , which means inheriting Lenin's will.
When time came to 1972, Li Min and Kong Linghua's second child were born, Li Min happily told the father the news and asked his father to help him get a name.
This time the child is a girl, so Chairman Mao named her "Dongmei" , hoping that his little granddaughter could enter the plum blossom and shroud proudly.
Shortly after Li Min sent the letter, Li Na also gave birth to a child.
Chairman Mao learned about Li Na’s divorce, so he specially asked Zhang Yaoci to help visit Li Na, and learned that Li Na’s life was very difficult.
After sending 8,000 yuan to Li Na, Chairman Mao also sent 8,000 yuan to Li Min. The reason why I sent it to Li Min was, on the one hand, because Chairman Mao was worried that Li Min would be in poor health after giving birth to two children.
On the other hand, Chairman Mao still feels guilty about Li Min and his daughter, and wants to make up for them more.
Even the great leader Chairman Mao is still as gentle as an old father when facing his children.
Conclusion
Although Chairman Mao dedicated all his fatherly love to several children, the relationship between him and He Zizhen can never go back to the past.
After that fare in 1936, Chairman Mao met He Zizhen again in the summer of 1959, and what happened after Li Min got married.
At that time, Chairman Mao was holding a meeting in Lushan, and happened to be in the process of He Zizhen working in the area of Nanchang . After asking about He Zizhen's opinion, Chairman Mao sent someone to Nanchang to pick up He Zizhen.
This time, after 23 years of separation, both of them no longer looked like they were when they were young. Chairman Mao’s face had many wrinkles, and He Zizhen’s hair was also a few gray.
The moment they met, both of them didn't know what to say. When each other looked at each other, tears rolled in his eyes.
This time the meeting lasted only more than an hour, and most of the topics of the two were on their daughter Li Min. It was said that Li Min had found a good husband, and they no longer had to worry about them.
A hour later, Chairman Mao left due to the meeting. He also made an agreement with He Zizhen to see you the next morning.
But the next day, Chairman Mao left Lushan because of other business affairs, only told He Zizhen to meet again next time.
Unfortunately, after this separation in Lushan, Chairman Mao and He Zizhen never met again in their lives.
In early 1976, Chairman Mao's health was getting worse and worse, and he had even reached the point where he could not leave the hospital bed.
When Li Min and Li Ne came to visit the chairman, Chairman Mao could hardly open his eyes and fell into a coma.
In a daze, Chairman Mao often said: "Why haven't Jiaojiao (Li Min's nickname) come to see me yet. Big baby, you won't come."
When Chairman Mao said this, Li Min and Li Na were sitting beside him . Seeing that Chairman Mao could no longer recognize people, both of them couldn't help crying and losing their voices.
Poor parents' hearts in the world, and the great leader of Chairman Mao, who has been magnificent throughout his life, is like the rising sun in the East for us Chinese people.
But in private, after shedding her halo, the Chairman is not an ordinary father who cares about his children.
Whether it is the Chairman's earnestness to his children or the Chairman's firm will to not allow his children to enjoy privileges, we can see that this great leader is also shining with dazzling light in life.
