Is Zhou Enlai a political family? Which leader was Li Hongzhang related to when China was founded?

Zhou Enlai's grandfather Zhou Diankui is from Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Later, I made inquiries in Huai 'an County, and I got a position as a magistrate in my later years. However, the former magistrate of a county had a background and refused to leave. Zhou Diankui died shortly after he officially took office, and his family business gradually declined.

Zhou Diankui has four sons, namely Zhou, Zhou Yineng, Zhou Yikui and Zhou Yi (). Zhou Yineng, his father, is the second child in the family, and his eldest brother Zhou has been working as a clerk in Shenyang. His father also works outside and doesn't earn much money. The third Zhou Yikui was ill for a long time, and the fourth Zhou Yi (), Zhou Enlai's adoptive father, died in his twenties.

There are three mothers: biological mother and Wan; Foster mother Chen, wet nurse Jiang Jiangshi. All three mothers are very kind to him and have an important influence on him. His biological mother taught him to do things, his adoptive mother gave him enlightenment education, and his godmother mainly taught him to do things.

Li Hongzhang seems to have nothing to do with a certain leader.

Mr. Li Jiasui was an English teacher at the Institute of Foreign Languages of the People's Liberation Army and died in Shanghai in 2002. Li Hongzhang's great-grandson.

Mr. Li was recruited as a teacher from Shanghai to the Foreign Languages Institute of the People's Liberation Army when the army absorbed a large number of local intellectuals, together with a large number of foreign language talents who had studied abroad. Mr. Li's wife, Ms. Liu Mingzhen, is the sister of Shanghai capitalist Liu Hongsheng. She majored in home economics when she was studying in England. At that time, she met Mr. Li and got married. The couple have two sons, the eldest son Li Daokui (born about 1940) and the second son Li Daohua (born about 1944).

About 19 10 years ago, Mr. Li was born in Shanghai and lived in Shanghai for many years. Liu Mingzhen is also from Shanghai. Ms Liu manages periodicals and magazines in the school library. Her eldest son, Li Daokui, is a medical student and works as a military doctor in the Bayi Hospital of the Military Region. Her youngest son, Li Daohua, is a student of Foreign Languages Institute. 1965 Stay in school as an English teacher after graduation. The whole family is in Nanjing, each in his place and happy. Except for Mr. Li, who is in plain clothes, the rest of the family are active servicemen. Mr. Li graduated from a famous university in England and then lived and worked in England for many years. His English level was very high and he was one of the few second-level full professors among English teachers at that time. He has great prestige in the school. Although most of the school leaders are generals, old Red Army and old revolutionaries, they all respect old professors such as Mr. Li and take care of and care about their lives. There is no discrimination or disrespect because Mr. Li is a descendant of Li Hongzhang.

1966 When the Cultural Revolution broke out, military schools were also affected. Naturally, as a descendant of a great traitor and an intellectual who returned from studying abroad, Mr. Li was branded as "ghostly" and "reactionary academic authority", criticized and dictatorial. Together with other dictators, they were gathered together and did manual work such as cleaning toilets, washing vegetables and dishes, and cleaning the yard all day. Liu Ming is really a traitor's great-grandson daughter-in-law and a big capitalist's young lady, so naturally there is no good life. She was once shaved into a "head of yin and yang" and paraded around the yard. However, she is surprisingly calm and calm. In the face of the frenzy of society, she does not lose the pride of a big lady and the dignity of a lady. Every day, regardless of people's pointing fingers and comments, she still looks at others with her head held high, walks gracefully, dresses neatly and leaves work on time, as always, sorting out the pile of books, newspapers and magazines that almost no one cares about. During the Cultural Revolution, five teachers, cadres and workers committed suicide in the college, but only the Li couple survived. Mr. Li's eldest son, Dao Kui, was treated by Bayi Hospital because of suspected XXX problem, and was demobilized to a chemical factory in Dachang Town, Jiangbei, Nanjing as a factory doctor. The youngest son, Daohua, was also innocently demobilized and became a worker in a factory in Nanjing.

1969, the school "struggles, approves and reforms". How to deal with Mr. and Mrs. Li who are over 60 years old? It became a difficult problem for the "industrial propaganda team" and "military propaganda team" stationed in the school at that time. Because according to the principle and regulations of "go back where you came from" at that time, of course, they should be sent back to Shanghai, but that is absolutely impossible, because Shanghai is the most revolutionary place in China, how can it accommodate the descendants of a big traitor? Those who went to Shanghai to contact for resettlement were severely criticized by the working-class rebels who seized power, and they came back full of grievances. So someone suggested that Li Hongzhang was originally from Anhui and sent Mr. Li back to Anhui for resettlement! Everyone seconded it. However, Hefei, the capital of Anhui Province, couldn't get in, so we had to arrange the Li couple in Chengguan Town, Chaohu County through relations-the old comrade-in-arms of the contact personnel were the commander of Chaohu Military Division and the director of Chaohu District Revolutionary Committee! Sorry, the local military sub-district and civil affairs bureau have no funds and no housing. What shall we do? Mr. Li said, It doesn't matter. We have money. We will build our own house and live by ourselves. However, private property is not allowed! Therefore, Mr. Li said: the property right of the house we built with money belongs to the state. We don't want property rights, just live. So there is a big joke: the house built by Mr. Li himself is handed over to Chaohu County Real Estate Company, which belongs to public property, and then the house is rented to Mr. Li and his wife, and Mr. Li pays the rent on a monthly basis. At that time, Mr. Li only made one request: in view of our age and the bad habit of using toilets for a long time, he especially asked to build a toilet and install a toilet in our residence. Such "luxurious" facilities in a small bungalow in the downtown area became big news in Chaohu County at that time. Because I have been to the commander's house, even his house doesn't have a toilet, so I can only go to the public toilet outside for convenience. It is said that they think the toilet is unsanitary and the room stinks.

1975, Deng Xiaoping became the chief of staff and was reorganized in the army. The old leader of the former Foreign Languages Institute was transferred back to the post of school official under the instruction of Chairman Mao, and I was fortunate to be transferred to the government to implement the policy. According to the research opinions of the Party Committee of the Institute, and with the consent of the Party Committee of the General Staff Department, it was decided to implement the policy for Mr. Li and transfer him back to the Foreign Languages Institute. I was ordered to contact Chaohu Lake to handle the transfer and resettlement of Mr. Li. One day, Tuo Dou and I asked for a military truck from school to transport Miss Li's family from Chaohu to Nanjing. At first, I didn't understand why Mr. Li wanted to buy a car with Tuo Dou. It turned out that Mr. Li wanted to buy some wood locally and take it to Nanjing to make some furniture for his two sons to make up for the lack of gifts when he got married. So, Mr. Li's youngest son, Daohua, and I were sitting in a big truck carriage full of furniture and sundries, and Mr. Li and his wife were sitting in the driving building. I looked at the logs filled by Tuo Dou, a kind of hard miscellaneous wood called oak wood, and I learned about wood for the first time. There is also a precious "national paint" for painting furniture (this kind of paint is used in his furniture, which is very antique). Because wood was a scarce material planned by the state at that time, it was difficult for ordinary people to buy it. I specially asked the commander who was then the director of the local revolutionary Committee to buy it. Mr. Li cherishes this piece of Tuo Dou wood and is grateful to me. He praised me straight: this young man is very enthusiastic, very human and very capable! Later, I specially asked someone to bring me a lot of white "dacron" cotton cloth from Shanghai. I smiled and refused. When Mr. Li returned to Nanjing from Chaoxian County, there was nowhere to put things: the youngest son lived in Nanjing Art College, and the young couple lived with their son in a tube-shaped building; The eldest son lives in Jiangbei, but for some reason he can't get ahead. So, I drove to Fu Kejian, deputy director of the Political Department of Nanjing Military Region near Wutaishan Stadium in Nanjing. Fu's wife is Liu Mingzhen's cousin. Gao Qian, a PLA soldier, is not afraid of the descendants of traitors at all, but he is quite enthusiastic. Later, I learned that he was falsely accused as a member of "5. 16" during the Cultural Revolution and joined the "Rebel Army" in Nanjing, which made XX very angry. In a rage, XX gave him two punches and broke his two ribs on the spot. We found someone to unload the car, but fortunately, the Fu family has a big garden where many things can be piled up. At noon, Deputy Director Fu invited us to dinner. The dishes cooked by his aunt Ningbo are really delicious, especially the braised fresh cuttlefish, which is really delicious. Later, I heard aunt Ningbo say that the black liquid in cuttlefish should not be washed off, but should be cooked with the fish until the soup is completely dry and the taste goes in. No wonder, most of us wash the cuttlefish white before burning it, and the taste will naturally be bad.

Li Daohua insisted that I go to his home in Nanjing Art Institute for dinner. He heard me say that he likes Peking Opera, and he also made an appointment with Shen Xiaomei and A Gui, the famous Peking Opera stars who were teachers at the Art Institute at that time. Li Daohua's wife, Wang Xx, is a piano teacher of Nanyi, and the couple are both from Shanghai. At the same time, their parents are family friends, so they came as soon as they were invited. Shen Xiaomei is different from ordinary Beijing Opera artists. Her family is a famous wealthy businessman in Shanghai. During the Anti-Japanese War, Mr. Mei Lanfang grew a beard and refused to perform on stage. All patriotic businessmen in Shanghai helped Master Mei by buying his paintings. Shen Xiaomei's father is one of them. Because of his love of Mei school art, Mei Lanfang accepted Shen as a "disciple" and named him Xiaomei. She also stayed with her to perform on the same stage with Mei Opera Troupe, and personally taught many famous Mei operas. After liberation, Jiangsu Peking Opera Troupe was established, and Mei Lanfang specially recommended Shen Xiaomei to play the leading role from Shanghai to Nanjing. At that time, Shen Xiaomei was just in his early twenties. During the Cultural Revolution, Shen Xiaomei was expelled from the stage because she couldn't adapt to the performance of modern drama, so she became a teacher in the Art Institute. Shen Xiaomei's husband, Agui, was originally a college student in Shanghai. He loves the splendid business of Beijing Opera. Maybe he fell in love with Shen Xiaomei and became a professional Peking Opera actor. To thank Shen Xiaomei's father for his support, Mei Lanfang specially presented his grandfather Mei Qiaoling's house near Nanjing Baixia Road to Shen Xiaomei and his wife. This is a small bungalow yard, where Shen Xiaomei and his wife make a hullabaloo about, run a circus and practice every day. At dinner that day, we talked a lot about Beijing opera, but we forgot most of what we ate, except for the last soup made by Li Daohua, which had a unique taste and color. Li said that it was made of milk according to the method of western food. At that time, the traditional repertoire of China opera had not been performed publicly, and the charge of being criticized as a feudal mess had not been lifted. However, we talked about traditional Beijing opera there with relish. Now it seems that it is really courageous. Unfortunately, Mr. and Mrs. Li Daohua seem to have no interest in Beijing opera. Mr. Li knows Beijing opera, but the old couple may be too tired to come to our dinner that night. Later, because of Li Daohua, A Gui and I became friends, and we often went to him to get tickets for Peking Opera performances. Once, I proposed and arranged to invite comrades who were persecuted during the Cultural Revolution and later implemented the policy to watch the Peking Opera "Matchmaker" performed by Jiangsu Peking Opera Theatre. This is a drama of Xun school based on the drama The West Chamber of Puyuan. Except for a few old comrades, many people are actually exposed to traditional opera for the first time, which is very exciting and novel. When she was teaching in Nanjing Art Institute, she accepted a Hawaiian Wei as a disciple and taught her to sing the famous Mei school song "Drunken Guifei", so she was called "foreign Guifei". It was this foreign imperial concubine with a high nose and blue eyes who returned to the United States and creatively rehearsed the Beijing opera Drunken Princess in English. The English translation of the play, entitled The Trouble of a Queen, was a sensation after its performance in the United States. Shen Xiaomei has also performed in the United States for many times, and has done a lot of useful work for spreading China culture and promoting Sino-American folk friendship.

I arranged accommodation for Mr. and Mrs. Li on the second floor of the dormitory near the hill in the south yard of the Military Foreign Hospital. According to Mr. Li's request, there are two single wooden beds in the bedroom, separated by a bedside table. The room layout is simple and sanitary. Most of them eat in the nearby government canteen and rarely start their own businesses. They only eat light vegetables. Mr Li and Mrs Li are both thin and tall. It's really "money is hard to buy old and thin"! It seems that scientific and reasonable eating habits are really good for people's health and longevity. I remember that when I was in Chaohu Lake, Anhui Province, it coincided with the spring season when eels and broad beans were on the market. The market by the lake is very lively. There are many kinds of freshwater lakes and their prices are not expensive. Mr. Li entertained me with roasted eels and turtles, but he seldom used chopsticks himself. I asked him why, and he said: Old people are not fit to eat these nutritious and high-protein foods. In addition, I was deeply impressed by Mr. Li's thick knuckles, wearing a pair of glasses with deep myopia, speaking softly and being polite. Later, I worked as a consultant in the training department of the college, specializing in training and counseling young foreign language teachers. I worked as a teacher in a teaching and research section of the training department, and we became colleagues. We often meet each other. I clearly remember that he corrected my English pronunciation! I can't pronounce the word Africa correctly. He patiently helped me practice many times. It is precisely because we relocated Mr. Li and others, and then in Jiang Qing's "Criticizing Deng's Counter-Rightist Conviction", some people said that we were "chinese odyssey, benefiting the people" and denied the great achievements of the Cultural Revolution. Fortunately, we are military schools. Chairman Mao asked the army to maintain stability and not to be chaotic. Therefore, instead of being impacted and influenced, I germinated and strengthened my idea and determination to be a teacher instead of a cadre.

In the early 1980s, Mr. Li was getting older and older. According to his request, the Foreign Languages Institute contacted Shanghai and arranged for Mr. and Mrs. Li to return to Shanghai to live. The Shanghai Work Bureau of X Department was responsible for taking care of their lives. In the summer of 200 1, I called Mr. Li Lao through my old classmates in Shanghai Bureau. He said: I'm over 90 years old now and I'm in bed. I'm not going downstairs anymore. I can't come to see you. My floor is very high, so you don't have to come to see me. He also told me on the phone about the Li Daohua brothers and other old employees of the Foreign Languages Institute. For example, his student Song XX became the vice principal and took good care of him. It seems that his mind is still clear. I respected his opinion at that time and didn't insist on visiting him. But the next year, he died. At present, Mr. Li's widow Liu Mingzhen is still alive. Li Daokui, the eldest son, has retired and now lives in a high-rise building near Jing 'an Temple with his mother Liu Mingzhen.
