We often say that "the kindness of parents raising them is greater than that of heaven." Whether in the old society or in the new era, we all educate children to respect the elderly and love the young and respect their parents.
However, there was once a Chinese couple who had been rolling their eyes and insulted for decades in order to raise a Japanese orphan who had nothing to do with them.
But just after they raised their adopted sons from their heart to their hearts, the adopted son returned to Japan and there was no news since then. Even the old man's last glance, the adopted son was unwilling to come back to visit him.
So, what exactly is going on? Why did the Japanese adopted son refuse to look at the old man for the last glance? What psychology did Chinese couple raise this child?
Anti-Japanese War , adopting orphans
1945, the Anti-Japanese War finally ushered in victory. Harbin was particularly cold this year, but it was very warm in the hearts of the Chinese people, because the Japanese who had occupied the Northeast for more than ten years were about to leave, and The three northeastern provinces returned to the hands of the Chinese government again.
In November of the same year, a man named Zhao Fengxiang carried a pole to the city to sell vegetables, but he met two Japanese officers coming towards him. The Japanese rumbling for a long time, but Zhao Fengxiang didn't understand a word. Then the Japanese handed a child to Zhao Fengxiang and then quickly disappeared on the street.
Zhao Fengxiang was also stunned by this sudden scene. He looked at the boy in his hand and found that the child had many frostbite and his clothes were dirty. It was obvious that he was a Japanese orphan. In that special era, Zhao Fengxiang often heard people say that some Japanese people threw many children and women into China on the road to returning to China.
At that time, Zhao Fengxiang didn't want to care about the Japanese boy, but after walking out dozens of meters away, he turned around and found that the child was looking at him eagerly. Zhao Fengxiang remembered the child in his family and finally took the Japanese boy away.
After returning to his home, Zhao Fengxiang told his wife Li Xiurong about the incident. Li Xiurong said nothing, but just silently cooked a pot of millet porridge and fed it to this strange Japanese boy. Although the couple didn't like Japanese, they couldn't bear to let a little life die in front of him.
Early the next morning, Zhao Fengxiang and his wife specially found a doctor to treat the Japanese boy and prescribe medicine. In order to take care of the child's health, Li Xiurong even gave him the only fur coat in the family. You must know that this fur coat was originally a warm suit that belonged to their daughter. Now that his child is trembling with cold, the Japanese boy is warming up first.
Under the careful care of the couple, the Japanese boy gradually recovered his health. The boy told Zhao Fengxiang and his wife that his name was Noida Xiangsan and he was four years old this year.
At that time, Zhao Fengxiang and his wife had a strict discussion on how to arrange Xiangsan Nodai. Zhao Fengxiang proposed: "Why don't we send him out?" " wife Li Xiurong retorted: "But he is still a child, what if something happens?"
After repeated negotiations, the couple decided to adopt Xiangsan Nodai first and raise him as their son. In order not to let others discover this, they also burned all the things that proved that Nodai Yoshizo was a Japanese (mainly clothes and military boots) and gave him the Chinese name of "Zhao Liandong" .
However, some things cannot be hidden. The couple thought they were doing everything seamlessly, but they could not prevent "Zhao Liandong" from revealing their own identity. During a time of playing with children, Zhao Liandong spoke Japanese directly, and was heard by a neighbor.
After a while, the adoption of "Japanese children" by Zhao Fengxiang and his wife was well known. Many neighbors accused them of being "traitors" and "laid dogs", saying that they forgot their national hatred and family hatred, forgot the sins committed by the Japanese, and threw away the Chinese.
In fact, how could Li Xiurong forget those things? She is the family of a martyr. Her uncle was once a Japanese man cut off his head and corpse for three days in order to save more than ten women in the same village.
Her father is a member of the Communist Party of China . He was killed by the Japanese while organizing armed anti-Japanese war. It was because of the persecution that their family ran to Arbin to live in anonymous life.
If you want to talk about hatred for the Japanese, Li Xiurong is not less than others, but she always firmly believes that adult affairs have nothing to do with children. She does not want to kill this child because of hatred, although their family has to endure endless abuse and humiliation for this.
is full of waves and returns to their hometown
In the years after this, Zhao Fengxiang and Li Xiurong's family continued to live in Arbin. Although they often suffer from the eyes of others, they still live their own lives.
When the children reach the age when they should go to school, Li Xiurong sent their adopted son Zhao Liandong and his daughter Zhao Lianqin to school together, thinking that the brother and sister entered the same class and took care of each other.
However, due to language barriers, Zhao Liandong's study is very difficult and often needs his sister to help him with tutoring his homework. In the third and fourth grades, Zhao Liandong was named by the teacher, but he couldn't answer anything, which caused laughter from the whole class. From then on, he gradually gave up on himself and gave up the opportunity to study and go to school.
However, even so, Zhao Fengxiang and Li Xiurong never gave up on Zhao Liandong, and even treated him as their biological son. He was close to him if there was anything delicious to eat and drink, but Zhao Liandong still didn't let his family worry and often played with friends of the same age.
At that time, the Chinese people were very resistant to the Japanese. Everyone had relatives and friends who died under the knife of the Japanese, so their children were not very friendly to Zhao Liandong.
There is a neighbor named Wang near Li Xiurong's house. Six or seven people in their family were killed by the Japanese. The whole family has a deep hatred for the Japanese. Every time they see "Zhao Liandong", the Wang family would criticize him and say that he is a beast, and occasionally he would come to Li Xiurong's house to make trouble.
1955, Li Xiurong finally got pregnant again, but at the critical moment of her pregnancy, she heard that her adopted son Zhao Liandong was bullied by the Wang family, so she hurried to stop him, but what was unexpected was. During the process of pulling between the two parties, Li Xiurong accidentally fell to the ground, and eventually the fetus in her womb was accidentally miscarried, and she herself lost the ability to give birth.
After this incident, Li Xiurong's family suffered a huge blow, but they still did not blame Zhao Liandong. Instead, they thought about how to avoid such incidents from happening again. In order to protect the safety of their adopted son Zhao Liandong, they decided to leave Harbin where they had lived for more than ten years and return to their hometown in Wuqiao in Hebei.
Her mother's family was very welcome at first for Li Xiurong's sudden return, but after learning that Li Xiurong had raised a Japanese boy, her brother directly scolded: "Have you forgotten the revenge of killing his father? How can you do such a thing? How can you let your parents rest in peace in the nine springs?"
Faced with the accusation of his brother, Li Xiurong was also very aggrieved. She cried and said, "What do you want me to do? He is still a child, he doesn't know anything. I can't watch him die."
Hearing his sister Li Xiurong's words, his brother did not respond at all, but from that day on, Li Xiurong's family never had any contact with her again. Whether it was her younger brother, sister, uncle or aunt, she no longer paid attention to her, or she completely ignored her.
About four or five years have passed, and the adopted son Zhao Liandong and his daughter Zhao Lianqin have grown up one after another. Zhao Lianqin chose to teach in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and Zhao Liandong was also arranged to work in a factory in Tianjin. During this period, Zhao Fengxiang and Li Xiurong also specially married his adopted son Zhao Liandong to help him get married and start a business as soon as possible.

1962, Li Xiurong's husband Zhao Fengxiang passed away. Zhao Liandong went home in person to preside over the funeral, helped his adoptive father complete his idea of being buried, and accompanied his adoptive mother Li Xiurong for a while with his younger sister Zhao Lianqin.
Two years later, Li Xiurong got older and his daughter Zhao Lianqin couldn't let her go, so she immediately took her to Ningxia. The factory where her adopted son Zhao Liandong was also moved to Inner Mongolia. The distance between the two places was much closer. Zhao Liandong often took his wife and children to Ningxia to visit his adoptive mother.
In the eyes of his daughter Zhao Lianqin, that period was the happiest time for the mother. Because of the company of a family (daughter, son-in-law, adopted son, daughter-in-law,), the mother rarely enjoyed a family happiness.
adopted son looking for his relatives, no news
After entering the 1980s, with the normalization of Sino-Japanese relations and the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy, Zhao Liandong's psychology also changed drastically. He began to be curious about his biological parents, and then proposed to go back to Japan to take a look.
Faced with the child he had raised for decades, Li Xiurong smiled and expressed his support for his decision, and even took Zhao Liandong back to Harbin. Based on the list of abandoned Japanese children that year, he found Zhao Liandong's biological father's home address.
In 1992, Zhao Liandong set out on his own and headed to Japan for his relatives. After many hard searches, he found his biological father, an officer of the Japanese invading China. Zhao Liandong never asked his father whether he had killed Chinese people, and the father and son also subconsciously avoided their experiences over the years.
Half a year later, Zhao Liandong returned to China from Japan. He became a little inexplicably arrogant and always looked down at his family with a downward look, as if he was born superior, and his attitude towards his adoptive mother also changed. But Li Xiurong didn't notice it at all. She just thought her son was a little excited after looking for a relative.
After that, Zhao Liandong went to Japan three times, on the grounds that his biological father was in poor health and needed his personal care. Li Xiurong was not dissatisfied with this, and even felt that his adopted son was very filial.
Two years later, Zhao Liandong came back from Japan again. He spent a while with Li Xiurong and said: "Mother, you are my greatest benefactor in my life. Without you, there would be no me now. I plan to buy you a big house. Let me support you in the future. In the future, I will let me take my son's filial behavior, and Li Xiulian quickly shook her head and said: "No, no, as long as our family is reunited, healthy and better than anything else." About half a month has passed, Zhao Liandong said that he has found a new job in Japan, and his salary and benefits are much better than in China, so he wants to take his wife and children there to live there.
Li Xiurong did not stop this. She personally took her daughter to see her adopted son off, and told them to be careful when they go out and come back to see her when they have time. Zhao Liandong repeatedly stated that she would not forget the kindness of her adoptive mother and her family here.
However, no one expected that this separation between Li Xiurong and his adopted son's family would become the last eternal farewell between the two parties. In the first month after his adopted son returned to Japan, Li Xiurong was able to receive his letter, but by the second month, his adopted son's family completely lost all news.
1997, Li Xiurong fell accidentally and suffered multiple fractures in her body. She suggested that she wanted to meet her adopted son's family, but no matter how her daughter contacted her adopted son's family, she did not have any reply.
In the years since then, Li Xiurong's longing for her adopted son became heavier. She always said to her daughter: "The child must have encountered some difficulties, otherwise it would be impossible that she would not have come to see me."
By 2005, Li Xiurong was hospitalized again due to cerebral hemorrhage . This time she was completely terminally ill. Even the hospital's critical illness notice was released twice, but until this time she was still thinking about her adopted son Zhao Liandong, hoping that her daughter could try her best to contact her adopted son.
Within the helpless situation, Zhao Lianqin could only find Zhao Liandong's eldest daughter (his own niece), hoping that her niece could not inform her brother Zhao Liandong to visit her mother, but her niece still told Zhao Lianqin that her father Zhao Liandong would not go back. It is obvious that at this time, the adopted son no longer wants to adopt his adopted mother who has raised him for many years.
Li Xiurong probably never dreamed that she and her husband had endured the infamy for more than 40 years, and even caused separation of their relatives for a while, but in the end they raised a ungrateful wolf who could not be fed no matter how hard they were.
Several years later, Li Xiurong passed away with regret and hatred. Until the last moment before her death, her adopted son Zhao Liandong (Yoshizo Noida) did not appear. Even after Li Xiurong's death, the Zhao family discovered that the Japanese government had proposed a policy to compensate China's adoptive parents, but Zhao Liandong received the compensation on his behalf in the name of having no children.
