In the old society, it was always the words of a matchmaker. When Chen Geng 14 was still in Dongshan Primary School, his father found a girl comparable to his family for Chen Geng according to the etiquette at that time. The girl's name is Chen Bijun. She is two years older than him.
However, due to the progressive education Chen Geng received in his new school and the influence of his grandfather's death, he was extremely disgusted with arranged marriage and asked his parents to send Chen Bijun home.
But what do Chen Geng's parents think is wrong? They insisted on holding a wedding for their guests. Unexpectedly, Chen Geng accepted this marriage even in the face of "driving ducks to the shelves" and directly chose to run away from home. Before I left, I told Chen Bijun again, "Sister, I'm really sorry. I really don't dislike you. I hope you don't blame me. You can't get any happiness here. I want to live according to my own wishes. You'd better go home early! " Then he left.
Influenced by his grandfather, Chen Geng resolutely chose the path his grandfather took-joining the Xiang Army. Shortly after leaving home, Chen Geng wrote a letter to his parents. The general content is that he won't go back for the time being and let them send Chen Bijun home as soon as possible!
In desperation, his parents had to send Chen Bijun back, and Chen Geng's first marriage failed to continue under his strong opposition, which also made him embark on the road of revolutionary career.
Chen Geng refused to admit his first arranged marriage, but his first love was legendary. 1926 In April, Chen Geng attended the Fifth National Congress held in Wuhan, China as a representative. The importance of this meeting is self-evident, and for Chen Geng, this meeting has another important significance.
At this meeting, he met Wang Genying, whom he had met once. Wang Genying is one of the leaders of the Shanghai Women Workers' Movement. She is smart and capable, and she has a fiery personality. She once left a very deep impression on Chen Geng, and love had already sprouted in her heart.
Chen Geng decided to use this meeting to launch a love attack on Wang Genying. While the conference was still going on, one day, Chen Geng looked at the reality, sat directly near Wang Genying, took out a pen and paper, and wrote a line: "Comrade Wang Genying, I love you, and I solemnly propose to you. I hope you can marry me! " After writing, he read it carefully again and felt good about himself.
So, I folded the paper with love words into paper swallows and handed them to comrades around me, and whispered, "Please give them to Comrade Wang Genying." The note didn't stop for a moment and flew straight to Wang Genying's hand. After opening the note and reading it again, Wang Genying quickly glanced at the side. Chen Geng stood up straight, raised a smug smile on her face, and couldn't help but meet her eyes and blinked naughtily.
Unexpectedly, in the face of this aboveboard way of showing love, Wang Genying is very dismissive. She dipped a little saliva directly on the back of the note, raised her arm reflexively, stuck the note on the wall, and then listened to the conference speech as if nothing had happened.
After seeing Wang Genying's performance, Chen Geng didn't feel timid, thinking: Make public? Ok, you stick it on the wall, and then I'll write it! So he leaned down again and wrote on the paper again: "Genying, I love you, and I hope you can be my wife!" " "Fold it into a paper swallow and fly to Wang Genying.
This time, Wang Genying just looked at it, and then put this paper on the wall, without looking in the direction of Chen Geng.
Chen Geng was even more excited to see Wang Genying's move. He thought: since you don't object, for fear that others don't know how to put it on the wall, you must agree! Then he leaned down and wrote the third article: "Genying, I swear I will marry you, and I won't stop until I reach my goal!" " "
This time, after Wang Genying handed the paper swallow, he unfolded it directly and pasted it on the wall without looking.
It happened that many people noticed the note on the wall during the break of the meeting. A bunch of people gathered around to watch the fun. Looking at Chen Geng's note, everyone can't help but jokingly ask, "Comrade Wang Genying, what do you mean by the way you handle emotional intelligence?"
Chen Geng stood proudly outside and loudly replied, "No objection. She definitely wants more people to know that Chen Geng wants to marry her! "
Wang Genying asked with a straight face, "don't be too confident. Why should I marry you? "
Chen Geng smiled and said, "This question is so easy to answer! Because I love you, and we are made for each other! "
Wang Genying was amused by Chen Geng's words and said shyly, "What a thick skin!"
People around me are also talking about things that they think are quite suitable, and they can't wait to get married directly on the spot.
After this conference, Chen Geng's reckless proposal also made Zhou Enlai and others point fingers and criticize for a long time. Zhou Enlai said to Chen Geng: "Falling in love is not a war. It is not enough to have a storm."
Chen Geng retorted: "Revolutionaries are aboveboard, and love should not be furtive. She posted my love letter, I am not afraid, she posted one, I wrote one! "
Zhou Enlai said seriously, "Haste makes waste. Treat girls gently and teach you a way. Apologize to her first and be sincere. If you can't do it once, you can do it twice. If you can't do it twice, you can do it three times. In the process of apologizing, you can deepen your understanding and build feelings, which is much more useful than constantly writing love letters! "
Chen Geng nodded and said, "I'll try."
Later, under the matchmaking of Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Enlai, after introducing Chen Geng's experience and personality to Wang Genying in detail, Chen Geng and Wang Genying got married, and these three love letters became a much-told story.
Both of them are revolutionary workers and can't live like ordinary people. Because of the particularity of their work, they are often forced to separate. 1939, Wang Genying was killed by Japanese guns to protect confidential documents. Chen Geng was very sad when he learned about it. He realized that he was sorry for Wang Genying, so he vowed to keep a festival for her for three years.
Wang Genying's sacrifice once made Chen Geng extremely sad. He always forced himself not to think about Wang Genying, but as soon as he went to the battlefield, Wang Genying's face would appear in front of him, and the reason why he fought so many beautiful wars later was that many ingredients were devoted to the memory of Wang Genying and hatred of the Japanese aggressors.
After the Hundred Regiments War, the129th Division held a sports meeting by reforming its troops, and Fu Ya also met in this Chen Geng. With the passage of time and getting along with Fu Ya day after day, Chen Geng's miserable heart warmed up slowly.
Chen Geng didn't adopt the way of pursuing Wang Genying in Floating Cliff. "It's different now." After all, it's almost forty years old now. In addition, the experience of meeting Fu Ya and Wang Genying is quite different, and Fu Ya is weaker than Wang Genying.
In those days, he showed his love to Wang Genying violently because he took a fancy to Wang Genying's courage and strength in the dark world. Now, in the contact with Fu Ya, Chen Geng's love is not only expecting Fu Ya to make up for gentleness and help his lost wife, but also the responsibility and treasure of a mature male elder.
When Chen Geng first talked to Fu Ya, it was no longer a straight courtship. Regarding their emotional problems, Chen Geng said, "Comrade Fu Ya, I like to make friends. I have many boyfriends and girlfriends around me. I wonder if you would like to be my girlfriend? "
Clever Fu Ya understood Chen Geng's girlfriend very sensitively and said frankly, "Chen, I have a fiance." And told the story of himself and his fiance.
After listening to their stories, Chen Geng also expressed his thoughts to Fu Ya, from family history to personal experience, and then to the history of marriage and love with Wang Genying. When telling this story with Wang Genying, the fit general was in tears.
Fu Ya was deeply moved by Chen Geng's sincerity and frankness, and they began to fall in love. After that, Chen Geng reported his choice to Liu Bocheng and Deng Xiaoping, but it didn't take long for him to get a clear answer from the organization department: he couldn't establish a love relationship with Fu Ya, and Fu Ya had a special suspicion.
This news made Chen Geng fall from the top of the wave to the bottom again. He always can't connect Fuya with evil, so he came to Fuya's file from Kangda and read it page by page. I don't know without looking at the file. I didn't know until I read the file that Fu Ya's history was innocent and he never left the organization. How can it be particularly suspicious?
Later, the news came that it was not Fu Ya's problem, but his big brother's problem. According to our information, Fu Ya's eldest brother is party member, a national. Although there are some communist party people living in his family, he has also received Kuomintang spies, and his contacts are very complicated. Recently, her eldest brother came to Yan 'an to inquire about Fu Ya. In the end, they even began to question why Fu Ya promised Chen Geng's love, thinking that the other party was eyeing Chen Geng's status or had another purpose.
Chen Geng, on the other hand, thinks that some things can't be killed with a stick. After all, now Fu Ya has never seen his brother's face. How can he cook in one pot? As for Fu Ya waiting for him specially, it is even more innuendo. If this matter is put on someone else's head, Chen Geng will never choke, and will definitely argue. But since it involves yourself, you can't be too impulsive. Now, after all, he is a leading cadre, so he can only wait quietly, wait for the organization to investigate the problem of Fu Ya's eldest brother, and then confess.
During this time, Fu Ya, who knew nothing, also clearly noticed the difference. The class meeting is obviously a discussion, but it looks like a criticism meeting. Everything is coming to her, but no matter how she explains it, it can't change her present situation.
She began to become anxious and often woke up crying in her dreams. Luo Ruiqing, political director of Kangda University, talked to her: If you miss your fiance too much, the organization will send you to Chongqing. But Fu Ya resolutely refused, because her heart had been given to Chen Geng. Thinking that he had gone through the test of life and death without fear, his heart became more and more firm, and he kept on working, slowly coming out of the dreary trough and looking for sustenance in his efforts.
Fu Ya also wants to talk to Chen Geng about her inner pain. She believed that he could really help herself, but she never took this step, and she often received condolences and trophies from Chen Geng. Although the feelings between the two people are still separated by a thin film, they have never broken.
At the sports meeting of 194 1, the love between Chen Geng and Fu Ya ushered in a breakthrough, thanks to Deng Xiaoping this time.
After the curtain was opened, Peacock Flying Southeast began, in which Fu Ya played the role of sister-in-law. She sympathized with and loved the new sister-in-law who was forced away. On the stage, Fu Ya completely entered the role, and the characters' feelings were also performed just right, and tears were streaming down her face.
Chen Geng, who was sitting in the audience, saw Fu Ya who was crying. His heart is full of ideas, and the more he thinks about it, the more sad he becomes. Finally, my nose was sore and I couldn't help crying. Sitting next to Chen Geng, Deng Xiaoping found Chen Geng crying. He knew about Chen Geng's heart disease and was moved by his infatuation.
After watching the play, Deng Xiaoping found the director of the Political Department: Did you watch it? One was crying on the stage and the other was crying under the stage. Send a telegram to the Central Committee! Fu Ya's family background is somewhat tainted. Even if her brother is a spy, she is * * * after all! Just approve their marriage! "
The director of the political department said, "OK, I will definitely fight for it!"
With everyone's efforts, this matter finally landed. One day, Chen Geng called Fu Ya and said, "I'm Chen Geng, Fu Ya. Our superiors approved our marriage. Please come back soon! "
Fu Ya at the other end of the phone had tears in her eyes: "Really? But I have a performance tonight? "
To know the result, both of them waited for three years. Chen Geng said, "Come back quickly. I have been waiting for three years, and I don't want to wait for a day! "
