1April, 984 15 When Li was lying in bed, suddenly, the telephone rang loudly and he got up to answer it. After listening to the phone, CoCo Lee had no time to think about it. She hurriedly said to her husband Kong Linghua in the room, "We are going to Shanghai soon! Quick! "
It turned out that this call was from the Central Office. On the phone, the other party said, "Your mother He Zizhen is seriously ill. We have prepared a plane ticket to Shanghai for you. Please take your family to Shanghai at once! "
Kong Linghua saw that CoCo Lee was in a hurry, so he simply packed his luggage at once. At this time, the bus to take them to the frontcourt has arrived, and Kong Linghua got on the bus with a little weak CoCo Lee.
CoCo Lee has been flustered. When she heard the news that her mother was seriously ill, her heart became heavier and her heart beat harder. She looked pale on the plane. In order to alleviate the inner panic and boredom, CoCo Lee put his hand over his chest and tried to calm himself down.
Kong Linghua, sitting next to CoCo Lee, saw all this. Knowing that his wife was worried about his mother He Zizhen's physical condition, he quickly took out the medicine for heart disease. After drinking in CoCo Lee, Kong Linghua comforted softly: "Don't worry too much, it will be fine."
Daughter Kong Dongmei also said to her mother CoCo Lee intimately: "Mom, don't worry, grandma will get better."
Listening to the comfort of her husband and daughter, CoCo Lee nodded slightly.
After the plane arrived in Shanghai, a car was already waiting at the airport. After the CoCo Lee family got off the plane, the driver immediately sent them to East China Hospital where He Zizhen was located.
When she first arrived at the hospital, CoCo Lee didn't even have time to listen to the doctor's introduction about her mother He Zizhen's illness, so she went directly to the bed. When CoCo Lee saw her mother's shortness of breath, red cheeks and emaciation, she couldn't stop crying.
I haven't seen my mother He Zizhen for a long time. CoCo Lee sniffed it gently, leaned forward and sobbed in He Zizhen's ear and cried "Mom".
He Zizhen heard the cry of CoCo Lee and opened his eyes slightly. Seeing her daughter and children coming, her muscles moved slightly, as if smiling, and her lips moved, as if to say, "You came to see me."
CoCo Lee's eyes are red again. She leaned close to He Zizhen again and whispered, "How are you, Mom?" ? We are here to see you. "
He Zizhen heard her daughter's words, looked at her and nodded deeply. Then her lips moved a few times, indicating with her eyes that the doctor standing next to CoCo Lee was the doctor who treated her.
He Zizhen hasn't spoken clearly since she was ill. Now she has a high fever, and she has no strength. She speaks very softly. Although CoCo Lee couldn't hear her mother clearly, after seeing her mother's signal, she also understood that her mother was introducing her to the doctor who treated her. CoCo Lee gently nodded to the doctor standing beside her and said "thank you".
Later, CoCo Lee looked at He Zizhen again and saw her mother close her eyes again. Only then did CoCo Lee walk out of the ward with the doctor. The doctor said to CoCo Lee and Kong Linghua, "Your mother has been suffering from intermittent hyperthermia since the beginning of April. A few days ago, she had a high fever. She used many drugs, but failed to lower her body temperature. "
CoCo Lee was a little flustered when she heard the doctor's words. Just when she was at a loss, her uncle He also arrived in a hurry. When she learned that her sister He Zizhen had a high fever, He immediately suggested taking Angong Niuhuang Pills. He also said, "If the hospital thinks this medicine is too expensive to use, I will pay."
After hearing this, the doctor immediately said, "As long as it is conducive to the rescue, we are not stingy with money."
In this way, the doctor listened to He's advice and immediately prescribed medicine for He Zizhen. After He Zizhen took the medicine, his temperature dropped and he fell asleep.
When CoCo Lee saw the blush on her mother's face fade from He Zizhen, she was relieved and left the ward to let her mother have a good rest.
In the next two days, CoCo Lee took her family to visit her mother He Zizhen every day.
After the fever has gone down, He Zizhen's mind is more sober. Whenever she wakes up and sees her relatives around her, she will ask, "Are you afraid I can't do it? I am here. "
When CoCo Lee heard her mother He Zizhen's words, she curled her lips slightly and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
He Zizhen smiled gently, and then asked the nurse to get something delicious for her granddaughter Kong Dongmei. Everyone was relieved to see that He Zizhen could talk and laugh, and everyone thought that her condition had improved.
To everyone's surprise, a few days later, He Zizhen's condition suddenly worsened, and his temperature rose twice in a row, and he is still in a coma. Doctors immediately rescued him, and CoCo Lee, Kong Linghua and others waited anxiously at the gate of the intensive care unit, which was an all-night wait.
However, CoCo Lee did not wait for the good news. /kloc-On the afternoon of April, 2009, He Zizhen's heartbeat became weaker and weaker, and his electrocardiogram gradually stopped showing. This weather-beaten, ordinary and great woman finally left at the age of 75.
After learning the news of He Zizhen's death, relatives and hospital doctors and nurses flocked to her bed and said goodbye to her body with tears.
CoCo Lee looked at He Zizhen, her mother. She looked relaxed and serene, as if she were sleeping quietly, but the oxygen mask had been removed and the white list covered He Zizhen's chest. At this time, she rushed to her mother's bed and opened the list. She held her mother He Zizhen's warm hand tightly, only to find that it was already cold. She tried to block out the heat, but it was useless. At that moment, CoCo Lee's tears kept falling, and she finally cried. ......
After He Zizhen's death, how to handle her funeral and where to bury her ashes is a difficult problem for the Shanghai Municipal Committee. At first, the Shanghai Municipal Committee considered burying He Zizhen's ashes in Longhua Martyrs Cemetery, but some people thought that He Zizhen was a central cadre and should bury her ashes in Beijing.
He Zizhen's funeral, the Shanghai Municipal Committee could not finalize. After several considerations, the Shanghai Municipal Committee asked the General Office of the Central Committee, which could not make up its mind about how to deal with He Zizhen's funeral and ashes burial, so it reported the matter to Deng Xiaoping.
Deng Xiaoping after a moment of meditation, immediately clappers way:
Deng Gong's "One Room" refers to the Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery where the ashes of central leading comrades are stored. In this way, Deng Gong's words set the tone for He Zizhen's funeral specifications.
On April 25th, the farewell ceremony of Comrade He Zizhen's body was held in the lobby of Shanghai Longhua Revolutionary Cemetery. He Zizhen's farewell ceremony was simple, but it was also grand, because on that day, Deng, Chen Yun, Nie, Yang and other central leaders laid a wreath for He Zizhen.
In addition to the Central Committee members and He Zizhen's family, many friends of He Zizhen came to attend the farewell ceremony. They all observed a moment of silence and bowed in front of He Zizhen's body with reverence, and walked slowly around the body for a week to bid farewell to the long March veteran cadre.
That afternoon, He Zizhen's body was cremated. Subsequently, the Central Committee sent a special plane, accompanied by CoCo Lee, Kong Linghua and others, to send He Zizhen's ashes to Beijing and put them in Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery.
When many revolutionaries learned that He Zizhen's ashes were laid in Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery, they spontaneously went to Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery to attend He Zizhen's ashes laying ceremony, just to pay their last respects to this respectable female Red Army soldier.
The groundbreaking ceremony is also very simple. CoCo Lee put the urn in his hand on the table in the yard, and everyone bowed to it. Then CoCo Lee sent the urn into a room, and the ceremony of placing the ashes was over.
On April 26th, China People's Broadcasting Station began to broadcast the news of He Zizhen's death in the morning. On the same day, He Zizhen's death was published in major newspapers in Beijing and the whole country.
In this way, the earliest female worker in Jinggangshan finally got the respect and treatment she deserved before her death.
From the death of He Zizhen, his mother, the farewell ceremony of his body to the laying of ashes, CoCo Lee has been in a state of sadness, unable to wipe away his tears. She endured grief and physical discomfort and completed the funeral for her mother.
What saddens CoCo Lee most is that her mother He Zizhen didn't leave any last words. In this regard, CoCo Lee once said with regret:
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, He Zizhen's legacy to CoCo Lee must be meager, but it is not. According to CoCo Lee's memory, "Mom's legacy is only three suitcases and 3,000 yuan in cash."
He Zizhen's legacy to her daughter is not much, but the spiritual wealth she left to CoCo Lee far exceeded the material wealth.
Shortly after He Zizhen's death, CoCo Lee came to the Shanghai Municipal Committee to retrieve the relics left by his mother He Zizhen. Among He Zizhen's relics, the most valuable one is the large color TV and portable tape recorder bought with the 20,000 yuan legacy given to her by Chairman Mao. These two things were finally donated to the hospital by CoCo Lee.
According to CoCo Lee's recollection, "My father's inheritance was only 20,000 yuan, and my mother deserved more than us. Now she takes too little. My father once said to me before his death,' Many things I wrote in Jinggangshan were copied to me by your mother, and some were revised according to her opinion. What I wrote during this period paid only half as much as your mother. But my mother never asked for anything ... "
In addition, there are only three boxes of He Zizhen's relics, some of which are worn out. Half of these three boxes are clothes, the best one is a woolen uniform, and the other half is some sundries, including letters, photos, shopping invoices and other small items, as well as 3000 yuan in cash.
Regarding this 3,000 yuan, CoCo Lee once said, "My mother left only 3,000 yuan in cash. I have never used this 3,000 yuan, because my parents very much hope that I can find my brother and sister before they die. If I find it, I will give it to them. "
He Zizhen left CoCo Lee a silk handkerchief given to He Zizhen by Chairman Mao and a red blanket that He Zizhen always carried with him. Although the red blanket is worn out, burnt out and darned, in CoCo Lee's view, the significance of its existence is to record the wonderful memories of the life of his father Chairman Mao and his mother He Zizhen.
In the process of carefully sorting out the relics, CoCo Lee found the letter she once knew from Chairman Mao to He Zizhen. According to CoCo Lee's memory:
Of course, there is a relic that CoCo Lee didn't know before: the disabled certificate of revolutionary soldiers in He Zizhen!
When CoCo Lee saw something wrapped in red cloth in the box, she opened it curiously. When she saw the words above, CoCo Lee couldn't stop crying. It turned out that it was He Zizhen's revolutionary soldier's disability certificate wrapped in red cloth, and her mother He Zizhen's disability level was also classified as level 3.
When CoCo Lee saw the above statement about mother He Zizhen's "metal foreign body in the right lung and chest wall" issued by East China Hospital, he couldn't help thinking that there were some hard foreign bodies in the ashes of mother He Zizhen's body after cremation, and these foreign bodies were the bullets left in her body when her mother He Zizhen was injured in the war many years ago.
What CoCo Lee can't imagine is how much endless pain these bomb fragments left in her body brought to her mother from the Long March injury to the death of her mother He Zizhen.
CoCo Lee has learned a lot about her mother He Zizhen's experience from her father Chairman Mao, but she never knew that her mother He Zizhen had a disability certificate, not to mention that during these 34 years (195 1), not only did her mother never receive state subsidies, but she never let her daughter know that she had a disability certificate, so she didn't want her daughter to worry about herself.
For CoCo Lee, the spiritual property left by his mother, He Zizhen, is even more precious, and these relics have always been treasured by CoCo Lee. Whenever I miss my mother, she always takes it out to have a look. ......
