General Yang Chengwu is a resourceful and courageous star, and his love experience is romantic. Different from the popular "organization introduction" marriage at that time, he won the first battle with a sincere courtship letter and finally married Zhao Zhizhen through free love. They are in the same boat, through thick and thin, and dozens of couples in the Spring and Autumn Period are as affectionate as stone carvings, which is a much-told story in the world.
Many years later, someone asked them who was chasing who. The general's clear voice replied, "Of course she chased me?" Zhao Zhizhen also made no secret: "At that time, he was 23 years old, promising and handsome, and many girls took a fancy to him. But I know in my heart that it must be party member with him. They are not party member, they are not qualified, they are just chasing each other. I'm party member, so I'm not worried about him being? Turn? Go ahead. " After that, she hit back. "You wrote me your first love letter?" Speaking of the famous "love letter", their thoughts can't help being drawn to the Yishui River in Hebei at 1938.
At that time, Yang Ren, an independent division commander, was based in Yixian County, Hebei Province. Once, Zhao Zhizhen, who worked in the Yixian Women's Rescue Association, reported to Yang Chengwu, who was also the commander of the military division, with the captain of the Yixian task force. This is the first meeting between Zhao Zhizhen and Yang Chengwu. Yang Chengwu wanted to know the social situation in yi county, and put forward the following figures: how many villages, how many people, how many militiamen, how many guns, how many anti-Japanese and national salvation associations were established, how many pre-production projects, how many crops, how many donations, how many people signed up to join the army ... The captain only reported a few figures and opened the record book. When Zhao Zhizhen saw that the captain was in a hurry, she quickly cleared the way for him. She answered forty or fifty figures, accurate enough to remember the date and time of every small activity clearly. Yang Chengwu could not help secretly admiring. I didn't expect such a big "living abacus" among the Eighth Route Army lesbians.
Later, Yang Chengwu visited many times and met this "living abacus". Seeing her play drama and sing to save the country, I think Zhao Zhizhen is versatile. Zhao Zhizhen also generously borrowed books from Yang Chengwu. She borrowed books from Yang Chengwu, such as How Steel was Tempered, The Water Margin, The Art of War, and Thirty-six Strategies. Yang Chengwu heard people call her "Zhao Zhizhen", so the name and character are vivid in his memory. When Yang Chengwu, who was busy with the war, could not resist the urging of his comrades-in-arms and began to seriously consider marriage, the name "Zhao Zhizhen" came to his mind together with her versatile and capable impression. After careful consideration, Yang Chengwu decided to write a letter to Zhao Zhizhen to express his admiration. "Comrade Zhizhen: I have long wanted to talk to you. Because of the environment and other reasons, I haven't found a good opportunity to put off this important matter until today. This is a pity. Now can I write this simple letter and have the first conversation with you? .....165438+1the evening of October 20th. "
Zhao Zhizhen, formerly known as Zhao Xiuqin, ranks eighth in the family, and his ancestors were out-and-out farmers. She/KLOC-joined China at the age of 0/6 and became an Eighth Route Army soldier. 193 1, Zhao Xiuqin was admitted to Beiping No.2 Girls' Middle School. Before graduation, she studied with Su Zhang, a soldier of the Eighth Route Army. It was at this time that Teacher Zhang changed her name to "Zhao Zhizhen".
She was very surprised when she received the letter. When she opened it, her face turned red ... that day, she read the letter dozens of times A day later, she found Mr. Yang calmly, which shows that we are soul mates.
Once the floodgate of love is opened, they are immersed in incomparable happiness with surging feelings. After several dates and conversations after work, the two agreed to enter the mature stage of love-marriage. Three days later, Nie Rongzhen, commander of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, approved their marriage application. 1938165438+1October 28th, the eighth day of Yang Chengwu's courtship letter to Zhao Zhizhen, they were married in beichengzi village, Laiyuan county. The soldier and the landlord sewed a set of bedding and pillows as gifts. The wedding leave was only one day, and then they entered into a fierce battle. Many years later, Zhao Zhizhen once said, "Yang Chengwu is a pine tree on a rock, which deserves my respect. I am willing to give my life at a time when we have to give up one. "
/kloc-in the autumn of 0/992, Yang Chengwu and Zhao Zhizhen ushered in the 54th annual ring of their evergreen marriage. At this point, it has been four years since Yang Chengwu voluntarily resigned from all his posts. Yang Chengwu and Zhao Zhizhen were named "Golden Couples" in the large-scale selection activities sponsored by the All-China Women's Federation.
When the Women's Federation gave the couple an award to congratulate them, the old general and the old lady, both over the age of ancient times, were still excited. After all, this is their common glory! Admiral Yang Chengwu rubbed his hands, his face was red, and he was as excited as a young man ... Zhao Zhizhen couldn't help laughing and asked him, "What do you remember? So happy? " "Well ... I was thinking that everyone said? Yang Chengwu, a teenager in a white robe, is going to take flowers at once? ..... "Zhao Zhizhen listen, as if returned to the heyday of the year:" I'm not afraid to say it. I am afraid that I will scare people away when I sing. " They say Yang Chengwu can scare people away by singing, cctop. Of course, it is exaggerated, but there are also allusions in it. It was a night in the summer of 1940, and a division of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region held a sports meeting to review the comprehensive training achievements of the troops in military, politics, culture and physical fitness. Everyone has unfinished business. The young commander Yang Chengwu and his wife have to give a program. Yang Chengwu was forced to clear his throat and sang his favorite, most famous and popular anti-Japanese songs at that time. Because it was the first time to sing in front of Zhao Zhizhen, the originally beautiful song was recorded by him as the fastest singing method, so that the soldiers jokingly said, "Is the commander shouting a password?" Afterwards, he wiped a sweat and embarrassed himself: "The lyrics are unfamiliar. Is this the new song I just learned? " This is the only time in Yang Chengwu's life that he lied to Zhao Zhizhen.
This year, the ninth day of the ninth lunar month is Yang Chengwu's birthday, and the husband and wife agreed on this day as their common birthday. In front of a room full of children and grandchildren, Yang Chengwu recited a poem he wrote for Zhao Zhizhen with deep affection: "After decades of ups and downs, the sea is dry and the rocks are rotten, and the will is firm. Working at home is praised by everyone and helps great things. " The children couldn't help clapping their hands, and tears of happiness blurred Zhao Zhizhen's eyes.
1994 On the Double Ninth Festival, General Yang Chengwu ushered in his 90th Spring and Autumn Period. Zhao Zhizhen carefully prepared a special gift to repay her husband's love. "ChengWu, I wish you a happy birthday. I'll give you a birthday present. " Yang Chengwu solemnly took it. He carefully opened the envelope and took out the gift inside. He couldn't help but be surprised: this is his handwriting 56 years ago, the first and last courtship letter?
Yang Chengwu's hands are shaking and her mood is restless, 56 years! Drifting, several deaths, several births, wind and rain, great changes and vicissitudes of life, even the stone tablets carved with axes and knives must be mottled in the washing of years? However, Zhao Zhizhen still treasures these two pages of tissue paper, and this unforgettable truth can be described as everlasting, the seas run dry and the rocks crumble?
