Two hundred years ago, Napoleon asked in a conversation with Madame Gompon, "The traditional education system seems useless. What do we still lack in order to make people get a good education? "
"Mother" Madame Gompang's answer deeply touched the emperor of the first French Empire. "Not bad!" He said, "There is an education system in this world. Then please take the trouble to cultivate a mother who knows how to educate her children. "
"Mother's Influence" captures the touching stories of 30 famous mothers how to raise their children.
The following content is taken from Zhang Liangke's "Mother's Influence" published by Economic Daily Press.
Kamala, the mother of Mrs Gandhi? Nehru
Former Indian Prime Minister Indira? Mrs Gandhi comes from a very famous family. Her grandfather was an important leader of India's independence movement, her father Nehru was the first prime minister after India gained independence from 65438 to 0947, and her mother was also a prestigious political activist.
From 65438 to 0930, the mass movement against British colonial rule reached its climax. Indira's mother took an active part in the vigorous political movement, holding rallies and giving speeches everywhere.
65438+February 3 1 is the New Year's Eve of the Gregorian calendar. A year of intense struggle has passed, and a new year full of hope is coming. That night, the father, then chairman of the Indian National Congress, was still running away from home, and Indira and her mother had a welcome dinner happily. Mother and daughter haven't had dinner together like this for a long time and chatted quietly.
Suddenly, the phone next door rang. Indira ran to answer the phone and thought happily: Maybe another friend called to congratulate the New Year. But as soon as she picked up the receiver, her face changed. There is a voice in the microphone:
"Tomorrow morning, the police will arrest Mrs. Nehru kamala!" Then the phone hung up with a bang.
"Hello, hello, who is calling, please?" Indira shouted quickly, but there was no sound in the microphone.
Indira was shocked, and the joy of the New Year suddenly disappeared without a trace. She turned and ran to the restaurant and told her mother the news. Unexpectedly, my mother just smiled and said calmly, "I have been preparing for this day for a long time."
Indira began to cry with a "wow". Kamala stroked her hair, but still said in a calm tone, "Be strong, son. Everything will pay the price. Mahatma Gandhi was in prison, your father was in prison, and now it's my turn. No big deal. " Keep eating, I have a lot of things to finish tonight. "
Indira fought back her tears and said intermittently, "Mom-I don't cry-what's the matter?"
My mother thought for a moment and replied, "I'm going to hold a meeting of important members of the Congress Party soon. Please help me pack my things at home. When the police come to arrest me tomorrow, they may search and some documents must be disposed of. "
Say that finish, mother quickly put on her coat and went out. Indira also calmed down, cleaned her mother's office and filing cabinet, and burned everything important. Then, she packed the daily necessities for her mother when she was in prison and put them in a small bag with a photo of herself in it. She knew that her mother would miss her daughter in prison. Although Indira is only 14 years old, her special environment and the influence of her parents made her mature early.
In the middle of the night, my mother came back and looked a little tired. She said to Indira, "The meeting is over. After my arrest, the struggle will continue. Now let's have a rest. "
Mother and daughter sat next to each other on the sofa, gently reciting Tennyson's famous sentence: "Send in the old year and welcome in the new year ..." The tension and fear had disappeared from little Indira's heart. She thought silently: everything will be fine, everything!
"When!" "When!" "When!" The bell rang and the new year came. Outside the window, there was a burst of firecrackers "193 1 year is coming," Ksenya Goryachova Camilla said softly, holding her daughter in her arms.
On this day, my mother was taken away by the police at 5 am on 193 1 New Year's Day. Instead of crying, Indira vowed in her heart, "I will be like my mother, and I will not be afraid of going to jail."
1 1 years later, Indira, 25 years old? Mrs Gandhi was arrested at home for the first time; 17, she was elected president of the Indian National Congress. At this time, my mother had passed away, but Indira thought of her again and again, because her influence was eternal.
Hilton's mother-Mary? Old? hilton
When the word "Hilton" is mentioned, people will think of Hilton hotel chains all over the world. In every metropolis, such luxurious and comfortable tourist hotels can be seen everywhere. This is already a worldwide cause, and Conrad, the pioneer of this cause? Hilton is recognized as a giant in the global hotel industry.
Hilton once called her mother-Mary? Lawforsweller? Hilton is "the cutest and bravest woman I know".
1907, an economic panic swept across the United States, and Hilton's father was in St.? Antonio's shop was in crisis and he wrote back to San Antonio from there. Antonio.
The store couldn't go on, so my mother decided to open a hotel: a lot of surplus daily necessities, a big house, the work of Hilton and her brother, and my mother's good cooking just constituted the conditions for opening a hotel. Once, a gentleman ate a meal in the shop and praised the food again and again. Before he left, he called Hilton, handed him a 5 yuan bill and said, "Here's a tip for you."
Hilton was surprised. At that time, tipping was not popular in this remote place. They occasionally get tips of 5 cents and 10 cents, but it takes a lot of extra work to get these tips.
With this five yuan, Hilton immediately went to her mother, puzzled. "That man is not from the East," he said to his mother. "He didn't drink. Why did he tip so much? "
Mother looked at the bill and said simply, "Maybe he took it as a dollar."
"Is it too much to mistake five dollars for one?"
A few days later, when Hilton and others talked about the five-yuan tip again, the mother patted her son on the shoulder and said, "Connie, don't pay too much attention to this tip. We should concentrate on our labor. Only through excellent labor can you get paid. "
However, within a few months, Hilton's hotel prospered to the point where it needed help, and the family's livelihood improved. This experience at the age of 20 has also become an opportunity for Hilton to develop the hotel industry in the future and eventually become a hotel giant. And Hilton remembers her mother's words all her life: "It is right to get paid by excellent labor." Perhaps it can be said that this is one of the secrets of his great success.
Churchill's mother-Jenny? Jerome
Churchill was born into a noble family, his father was the seventh Duke of Marbarrow, and his mother was Jenny? Jerome also came from a noble family in England. She is very popular in London society, and many prominent figures in the British aristocracy often visit her. This made little Churchill contact with many important political figures from an early age and became interested in politics.
After losing her husband, Jenny is determined to help her son succeed on her own.
Although Churchill's grades in school are not good, it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to study, but that he only wants to read books that he is interested in and thinks are useful. After coming to the title of ancient general, he spent most of his spare time studying. Because he has understood that he is a person with a low educational level, to realize his ambition of pursuing fame, he must have even the minimum knowledge in some fields.
So Churchill wrote to his mother and said, "Dear mother, my life in India is very leisurely, which makes me look stupid, boring and boring. I really want to read more books now, but I can't find them here. Please send me some books on history, philosophy, religion and economy at once. "
Jenny was very happy to receive her son's letter. She immediately ran to the bookstore, borrowed books from the library and bought books. And said to all the friends she met, "My Winston should study hard. I told you he would be a promising man. " Some books can't be found at the moment, so Jenny tries her best to ask people everywhere and even borrow books from friends and relatives. Soon, bags of books were sent from London to India where Churchill's troops were stationed. These books from across the ocean include the works of Pareto, Schopenhauer, Malthus, Darwin and others. With his outstanding intelligence, Churchill drew a lot of nutrition from these books in a short time.
At that time, young Churchill was particularly interested in history. He studied Macaulay, a famous British historian. Gibbon was fascinated by his historical works. So, Jenny sent him a lot of Macaulay? The book written by gibbon. Later, she also sent several thick political yearbooks to her son to study modern British political history.
1897, an Indian tribe launched an uprising at the Malakund Pass on the northeast border of India, where the British organized an expeditionary force to suppress it. Churchill also took part in this difficult expedition. After the war, he wrote a book about this expedition in his self-study time. He sent the manuscript to his mother, who soon found the publishing house through her relationship. Soon, Churchill's first book was published in London and was well received by the society.
Facts later proved that Churchill's success as a great politician was inseparable from his mother's help.
Virginia, Clinton's mother
Clinton's mother Virginia summed up her life course like this: "I am not a person who lives for rules." To a certain extent, the son inherited this attitude from his mother. Virginia preaches that "everything is for fun". She is an unrealistic optimist. She overcame many misfortunes that most women have never encountered in their lives: the tragic death of their loved ones, the abuse of their husbands and the imprisonment of their sons. But there is one thing she can't overcome, and that is breast cancer.
Virginia has experienced so many challenges, but it still maintains a carefree and unrestrained character. Besides never worrying about what might happen, she also has a set of methods to deal with bad things: "In my mind, I constructed a sealed box. I put what I want to think in it, and the other things are outside. The inside of the box is white and the outside is black; There is love, friendship, optimism, negative and pessimistic things outside, and criticism of me and everything I have. "
Virginia passed on her "sealed box" theory to her son, enabling him to break down his life to the point of shocking people around him. In the long year after the Lewinsky scandal broke out, Clinton was impeached by the House of Representatives and examined by the Senate. However, he was able to get rid of those charges against him physically and mentally. Clinton, like her mother, doesn't have to consider "any criticism of me and everything I do"; As his mother always does, he never shows his sense of humiliation; Like his mother, he denies unpleasant facts in his mind and locks the events that endanger his identity out of the "sealed box".
Elisabeth murdoch's mother.
Murdoch's mother Elizabeth is very strict with her children, even strict. She set high standards for the children and asked them to work hard to meet her requirements. In the eyes of some people, children are too young, and mothers should not be too strict with them. They need to lower some standards to suit their children's characteristics. Elizabeth disagrees with this view. She has her own methods in educating children. Elizabeth seldom approaches and accommodates children. She always supervises the children to pray and go to church. She often takes the children to renovate the garden, clean her room, and let the children take care of their own horses; She wants to cultivate them with good Christian values and sense of responsibility; She let the children choose their own work types and ways, and then get the corresponding remuneration from her one by one. "In those days, they probably thought I was an old-fashioned and cruel mother." She said, "But I think they can really appreciate the benefits now."
When talking about his mother's influence on him after his success, Murdoch said: "Yes, I think her strict requirements have made me understand that there is no free lunch in the world. You have to create wealth by yourself and do things by yourself."
Lan You Mei, Ceng Xianzi's mother
It was a cold winter day. Lan often goes barefoot to the fields. Her feet are frostbitten. She opens a hole to expose red meat. When she went barefoot to the field again, the pain was unbearable. If the wound is taped, it will fall off as soon as it touches water. She is reluctant to spend money to buy tape, but she thinks that she will go to the field the next day. If it is not treated, the crack will become wider and wider, so she decides to sew it with iron needle and cotton thread. She soaked her feet in hot water, and when the skin on the crack softened, she gritted her teeth and sewed it up. Every time she sewed a needle, she was bleeding, and the fairy watched her cry. Lan patiently comforted his son: "Silly child, what should I do if I can't sew well?" The crack will be bigger and more painful. It's okay. I will endure it. "
This scene will be engraved in Ceng Xianzi's heart forever. Whenever he feels tired and uneasy in the face of difficulties, he will use it to spur himself: my mother has survived such a deep pain and endured it. What are the difficulties I can't pass, and what are the hardships I can't stand?
Qian Xuesen's mother: Let her son be loyal to the motherland.
Qian Xuesen, known as the "father of Chinese missiles", has been gifted since he was a child. When he was three years old, he could recite hundreds of Tang poems and Song poems. Qian Xuesen's mother, Zhang Lanjuan, is cheerful, enthusiastic, kind-hearted, has strong computing ability and memory, and has a high talent for mathematics. It should be said that Qian Xuesen's superhuman talent is inherited from his mother.
When Qian Xuesen was very young, Zhang Lan Juan put him in a strong atmosphere of excellent traditional culture. Qian Xuesen loved listening to his mother tell him stories such as Yue Fei's loyalty to the country, Lu You's brave sword to the country, Du Fu's concern for the country and the people, Zhuge Liang's loyalty to the Han Dynasty, and "doing his best to help Shu". Whenever he heard these stories, Qian Xuesen was so seriously involved, and his childish face was full of reverence for the ancients. Their moral integrity left a deep imprint on the hearts of young Qian Xuesen. Immersed in the excellent traditional culture for a long time, Qian Xuesen's heart breeds reverence and love for the splendid civilization of his nation, and at the same time inspires his strong patriotic feelings and deep national pride.
65438-0936, Qian Xuesen, a graduate of Shanghai Jiaotong University, went to study in the United States. He is eager to change the poverty and backwardness of his motherland with his knowledge. Before leaving, my family specially bought some ancient books of China traditional culture, such as Laozi, Zhuangzi, Mozi, Mencius, The Analects of Confucius and Lu Outline. His mother told him, "If you read these books carefully, you can get some clues about the traditional philosophy of the motherland." Mother, like father, thinks: "The characteristics and outlook on life of any nation are reflected in its history. Therefore, people who study history intensively are often the people who have the deepest feelings and the most loyalty to the motherland. " Parents' encouragement gave Qian Xuesen great support.
During his days in the United States, Qian Xuesen learned well, but he was not used to it in life, especially because some Americans looked down on China's arrogant attitude, which made him angry. Once, an American student laughed at China people for smoking opium and binding their feet in front of Qian Xuesen. Qian Xuesen immediately challenged him: "As a country, China is behind the United States; But as an individual, who dares to compare with me? " Hearing this, all the American students around us stick out their tongues and dare not look down on China people any more. With a strong sense of national pride, Qian Xuesen obtained a master's degree in aircraft mechanical engineering in just one year.
According to the tenet of MIT, students of all professional disciplines should practice in the corresponding factories and scientific research departments during the semester. Qian Xuesen should have gone to the aircraft factory for an internship. But he did not expect that American aircraft manufacturers only allowed American students to practice and did not accept foreign students. This racial discrimination is another heavy blow to Qian Xuesen in the United States. However, setbacks and difficulties did not shake his determination to study hard for the prosperity of the motherland. Unable to study aviation engineering, he decided to study aviation theory instead, and boldly volunteered to join Professor Von Carmen, a world aviation theory authority who teaches at California Institute of Technology. Soon, under the training of his mentor, Qian Xuesen made remarkable achievements.
Although the United States provided excellent working environment and material treatment for Qian Xuesen, Qian Xuesen in the United States never forgot his motherland and his desire to serve the motherland. Every time my mother in China writes to Qian Xuesen, she reminds him to return to China as soon as possible. Qian Xuesen always keeps his mother's teachings in mind. After many years, Qian Xuesen finally returned to the motherland after many twists and turns, devoted himself to the research of "two bombs and one satellite" and made immortal contributions to China's space industry.
Ding Ling's mother: Respect her daughter's own choice.
Ding Ling's mother, Jiang Shengmei, studied in Changde Women's Normal School and Changsha Shuitian No.1 Women's Normal School for two years, and then returned to Changde Women's Primary School as school supervisor. Jiang Shengmei, who is resolute and self-reliant, never dotes on her daughter. She attached great importance to her children's education and personally taught her daughter to read ancient prose, The Analects of Confucius and Mencius. Under the influence of her mother, Ding Ling read extensively since childhood and laid a solid foundation in literature.
19 18 summer, 14-year-old Ding Ling graduated from primary school with excellent results. During the summer vacation, her mother sent her to Taoyuan County to apply for the Second Women's Normal School. At that time, the school asked the students to pay the deposit, and the mother had no money, leaving a gold ring for the female administrator to sell. After selling the ring, the female manager gave Ding Ling the remaining two yuan in the deposit, saying, "Your mother has a hard life, so you can't squander this money." Ding Ling took the money, and her eyes were red when she thought of the hard life of her mother and daughter over the years. She carefully put the money in a small wooden box and pressed it with a change of clothes. She was reluctant to spend money until she returned to Changde during the winter vacation.
At the end of the semester, the May 4th Movement broke out. The students marched in the streets, and Ding Ling also took part in the struggle. Influenced by her mother's thoughts since childhood, she took the lead in cutting her braids. The Students' Union also organized night classes for the poor to publicize anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism to poor women nearby and give them literacy classes. Ding Ling teaches abacus at night school. Because she is the youngest, the students call her "Mr. Zaizai".
When she came home in the summer vacation, menstruation saw her cut her hair and said coldly, "My parents can't hurt me." Ding Ling replied rudely: "Since it can't be damaged, why do you have to pierce people's ears and make your feet look like zongzi?" You are bound and I am liberated. "
Ding Ling happily tells her mother all kinds of new things in school. The mother is also very pleased to see her daughter's progress in thought and lessons. Mother told her daughter that during the May 4th Movement, she led students to March, shouted slogans and participated in various activities. She resigned as the administrator of the provincial women's high school and founded a primary school affiliated to the Women's Virtue Salvation Association. At present, in addition to continuing to run Jiande Girls' Primary School, she has also set up a small "work-study program mutual aid group" for poor girls outside the East Gate. Students can learn culture without paying tuition fees, and they can also take some money to subsidize their families. Inspired by letters and articles sent by Xiang Jingyu, my mother often reads progressive books such as New Youth and actively participates in social work. Ding Ling saw that although her mother was over forty, she was still full of enthusiasm and spirit, forgot her personal interests and looked forward to the future. She is also very happy and relieved.
After the summer vacation, Ding Ling made a request to her mother, hoping to transfer to Changsha Nan Zhou Girls' Middle School. This girls' middle school is a famous school in Hunan, which has produced Xiang Jingyu and Cai Chang. This school was also very active during the May 4th Movement. Mother has always trusted and supported her daughter, but this school is private. Tuition, accommodation, books and paper fees are naturally a big expense in her meager salary. However, considering her daughter's future, the mother agreed to her daughter's request and personally sent her daughter to Changsha. Ding Ling finished her second grade in Nan Zhou, but because she couldn't stand the headmaster's preventing students from participating in social activities, she transferred to Yue Yun Middle School.
1922 During the Spring Festival, Ding Ling was invited by Wang Jianhong to go to the Shanghai Civilian Girls' School founded by Chen Duxiu and Li Da. My uncle rudely interfered, and he asked Ding Ling to marry his cousin six months after graduation. The mother supports her daughter. She believes that it is right for children to seek knowledge, find their way and learn the most practical knowledge. To this end, there was a dispute at home. In the end, Ding Ling got rid of the arranged engagement and other entanglements, gave up the graduation certificate she was about to get, and came to Shanghai in the spring of 1922, where she received an education from China. She changed her name to Bingzhi and gave up her surname to show her contempt for traditional consciousness.
1923 During the summer vacation, Ding Ling met Xiang Jingyu in Shanghai. Xiang Jingyu told Ding Ling about her mother: "Your mother is an extraordinary person, a woman with ideals and perseverance. She is poor and fixed by the environment, so it is not easy for her to achieve great things. She pinned all her hopes on you. " Xiang Jingyu's words deeply touched Ding Ling's heart and always inspired her to keep forging ahead.
Liao Chengzhi's mother: Painting builds character.
In the modern history of China, Liao Chengzhi's mother, Ms. He Xiangning, was a respected and outstanding woman. Mao Zedong once highly praised her for "setting an example for the Chinese nation". She is a comrade-in-arms of Sun Yat-sen and will always be a friend of the people of China. After years of assisting her husband Liao in her struggle, she also encouraged Liao Chengzhi to join the revolutionary ranks led by * * *. Her own life has also become a shining example in the women's liberation movement.
He Xiangning, born in June, 1878, was a wealthy businessman. 1902, at the age of 23, she followed her husband to study in Japan in order to find the truth of saving the country. He Xiangning studied Chinese painting in his early years. From 65438 to 0908, he entered Tokyo Muxiang Women's Fine Arts School to study color painting, temporary painting and sketch. At the same time, he learned to draw animals such as lions and tigers from the Japanese royal painter Zhang Lai Tanaka. 19 10 After returning from Japan, He Xiangning moved between Hongkong, Guangzhou, Shanghai and Japan, and served as the executive member of the Kuomintang Central Committee, minister of women's affairs and member of the Central Committee.
When he went to Japan, He Xiangning gave birth to his son Liao Chengzhi. Liao Chengzhi was born fat and strong, so his parents gave him a nickname: Fat Boy. Shortly after the fat man was born, his parents began to wander in exile, and Japan became his second hometown.
For many years, He Xiangning earned "rice money" by selling paintings. Her works signed "Shuangqing Landlord" are well-known at home and abroad. When she was in a Japanese art school, a famous teacher tutored her. Later, she devoted herself to ink painting for many years and often learned from domestic masters. He Xiangning's paintings pay attention to conception, and she often expresses her feelings with descriptions of pine, plum, bamboo, lion, tiger and mountains and rivers. Until she was in her eighties, she still painted at home from time to time, and her skill continued unabated. In her works full of struggles, she not only recorded the social and political changes since the beginning of the 20th century, but also vividly portrayed her 70-year revolutionary career and noble character.
Liao Chengzhi was influenced by his mother since childhood and loved painting. When He Xiangning painted, he was absorbed in waiting beside his mother, grinding ink and thinking. Sometimes I can't help but draw a little portrait. Although the brushwork is immature, the characters are lifelike. When He Xiangning discovered his son's specialty, he was very surprised and determined to give full play to his son's painting talent. So, every time she finished painting a picture, she asked her son to make up a "little baby". Under the careful guidance of his mother, Liao Chengzhi's painting skills have improved rapidly, and he is handy in sketching, Chinese painting and comics.
More importantly, He Xiangning not only taught children to paint, but also cultivated Liao Chengzhi's noble painting character. What He Xiangning has done for the revolution all his life and his excellent character have brought great influence to Liao Chengzhi. Influenced by his mother's lofty sentiments, in the long-term revolutionary struggle, Liao Chengzhi, on the one hand, dealt with the enemy, on the other hand, expressed his feelings with a brush.
From Liao Chengzhi, people can see a revolutionary's tenacious will and extraordinary character. All this is strikingly similar to He Xiangning's righteous personality in the face of adversity. Liao Chengzhi not only inherited his mother's painting and personality, but also his attitude towards Chiang Kai-shek.
On one occasion, Liao Chengzhi was arrested by secret agents and taken to Chongqing. Chiang Kai-shek met him as an "uncle" and advised him, "What if I let you go and want to keep you with me?" Unexpectedly, Liao Chengzhi denounced Chiang Kai-shek's betrayal of Dr. Sun Yat-sen's career face to face. His spirit of integrity is deeply admired by comrades in the party. His whole life, like his mother He Xiangning, was devoted to the revolutionary cause and national rejuvenation. He really died.
Lao She's mother: Of course.
Lao She's mother is a typical working woman in old China, hardworking and self-reliant. Lao She's enthusiasm, hospitality, sincerity and sincerity are related to his mother's influence.
Lao She's mother will wash the baby three times-poor friends can therefore spend less money to "invite grandma". She can shave, she can shave a child's head, she can wring a young woman's face ... No matter what she can do, she is responsive; Who needs help, she always runs ahead.
No matter how embarrassed the guests are, Lao She's mother will try to get something to entertain them. My uncle and cousins come to visit and often buy wine and meat with their own money, which makes her blush. But politely giving them warm wine to make noodles gave her some happiness. When relatives and friends have a wedding or funeral, mother will wash off the dress and congratulate her in person-the gift may be just two pennies.
Lao She inherited her mother's character and was famous for her hospitality. He can't live without friends. When he was in Chongqing, Lao She's life was quite poor, but when old friends met, they sold their coats and went to a small restaurant to entertain them. Lao She paid more attention to friendship in his later years. On holidays, or when the small courtyard is in full bloom, Lao She's home becomes a sea of joy, enjoying flowers and paintings, tea and wine tasting, and the host and guests are very happy. Sometimes, when he is happy, Zhao Shuli will scream out his famous Shangdang Bangzi at the top of his lungs, and Cao Yu will get drunk and slide under the table. ...
Sometimes, there are some strange guests in Lao She's yard. Most of them are elderly people over 60 years old, and some of them are leading a child. As soon as they saw Mr. Lao She, they bowed and saluted according to the standard bearer's rules and shouted, "Say hello to Big Brother!" " Lao She often helped them up: "Don't ... don't do this! It's out of fashion now. Sit down quickly and let's talk about it. " Afterwards, Lao She explained to his friends on the sidelines, "These are old friends for decades. In those days, I worked as a bodyguard for Hong merchants, an artist in the overpass, and a policeman in the old society. ".Have you read my All My Life, Broken Soul Gun and Square Pearl? They are models in the works! "
Lao She menstruation often gets angry at home and looks for bones in her eggs. She is the king of hell at home. She didn't die until Lao She entered middle school, but Lao She didn't see her mother resist. "I'm not angry with my mother-in-law. Am I not influenced by my sister-in-law? Life is like this! " Mother only says this when she has to explain that this is not enough to convince others. Lao She lamented that mothers who are old, poor and rarely old will suffer the most. Help friends, relatives and neighbors. But quarreling and fighting will never have her. She would rather suffer than be angry. When her aunt died, Lao She's mother seemed to cry all her life's grievances to the grave. I don't know where a nephew came from, claiming the right to inherit. Without saying a word, his mother taught him to move those broken tables and benches and give him a fat hen raised by his aunt.
Lao She said, "My mother's combination of rigidity and softness was also passed on to me. I treat all people and things with peace of mind and take loss for granted. In life, I have certain goals and basic rules. I can do anything, but I can't go beyond my own boundaries. Afraid of meeting strangers, running errands and showing your face. But when I have to go, I dare not go, just like my mother. "
1938, when the All-China Anti-Enemy Association of Literary and Art Circles was founded in Wuhan, Lao She had no place to borrow it. Without money, Lao She stepped forward to raise money; When someone was arrested, Lao She came forward to vouch for the important figures of the Kuomintang government and tried every means to rescue them.
Talking about my mother, Lao She once fondly recalled: "From private school to primary school and middle school, I have experienced at least 100 teachers, some of whom have had a great influence on me, and some have no influence at all, but my real teacher, the teacher who inherits my personality, is my mother. My mother can't read What she gave me was the education of life. "
