Peng Xuefeng died, but Zhang Aiping concealed the news. Lin Ying cried bitterly: I don't think there is any chance of change.

"Snow maple, snow maple, you shouldn't go, I still have a lot to say to you! ..... Xuefeng, Xuefeng, I will never see you again, and I have no chance to change. "

At 1940, Deng received a letter from Peng Xuefeng:

Peng Xuefeng, 1907 was born in Zhenping, Henan Province on September 9, 2007. His family was poor since childhood, but with the help of his grandfather and relatives, Peng Xuefeng still had the opportunity to study.

Peng Xuefeng left his grandfather at the age of 4 and went to Tianjin to join his uncle Peng Yanqing, who is also a teacher. With his help, Peng Xuefeng was admitted to Nankai Middle School with excellent results.

During his study in Nankai Middle School, Peng Xuefeng's knowledge and experience have been greatly improved, especially his understanding of various progressive ideas has improved very quickly.

1925, Peng Xuefeng began to contact the ideology of * * *. During this period, I read many books, including but not limited to "New Youth" and "Manifesto of Producers' Party". He also participated in a series of student movements, established the Yude Middle School Student Self-government Association, and was elected as the president. In June of the same year, classmate Feng joined the Communist Youth League.

Won the "Red Star Medal".

1May, 933, he was transferred to the political commissar of the fourth division of the Red Third Army Corps.

1September, 938, Dawn was founded and later changed to Snow Maple. He has served as chief of staff of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters and director of Taiyuan Office, director of the Zhugou Rear Office of the New Fourth Army, and commander and political commissar of the guerrilla detachment in eastern Henan.

1In August, 940, the New Second Brigade and the Sixth Brigade of the 334th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army were co-edited as the fourth column of the Eighth Route Army, with Peng Xuefeng as the commander.

At this time, 33-year-old Peng Xuefeng was not married, and his marriage became the most concerned thing for Deng, Zhu De, Peng and others.

It is because I saw everyone's concern for myself that Peng Xuefeng wrote such a letter.

The year after he sent this letter, he met Lin Ying, who will be his wife.

Lin Ying, a native of Xiangfan, Hubei Province, was asked by her father to read The Daughter's Classic and The Story of the Shrew. I hope she can be a decent housewife in the future.

However, Lin is willful and stubborn. She was very disgusted with the contents that belittled and bound women in the Four Books and Five Classics, and refused to endorse them, so she was punished a lot.

After entering middle school, she fell in love with novels and the works of Ba Jin, Lu Xun and Bing Xin.

After the "July 7th Incident", she and her classmates took to the streets to March, burn Japanese goods, raise money and express condolences to the wounded soldiers in the Anti-Japanese War.

Therefore, she was kept at home by her father. In order to restrain her daughter's willfulness, the gentle and virtuous mother forced her daughter to kneel on the ground and slapped her daughter in the face.

But Lin Ying still refused to give in and let her mother beat her. Mother stamped her foot angrily and scolded, Take this evil barrier to the countryside and lock it up!

Lin Ying went on a hunger strike, and there was nothing she could do but leave her at home.

Now she is like a caged bird. She feels that the sky is vast and freedom is precious. She immediately signed up for the national liberation vanguard in China, and three months later, she joined the China * * * Production Party.

After arriving at the anti-Japanese base area, she didn't want to sing and dance. She resolutely signed up to do women's work at the grassroots level. The more poor, remote and backward the countryside, the more she wants to go. She wants to realize her ideal and destiny of complete liberation in the struggle for women's liberation.

On one occasion, Peng Xuefeng hosted a banquet for students who came to participate in the Anti-Japanese War.

This is the first time they have met. Lin Ying is curious. What kind of person is this famous anti-Japanese general?

In Lin Ying's eyes, Xuefeng is handsome, handsome, with broad chest, bright eyes, straight nose and neat and generous movements. He is not like a commander in chief at all, but more like a gentle brother.

Peng Xuefeng didn't talk much, but he was very enthusiastic: you persisted in anti-Japanese propaganda and suppressed it in every way in the Kuomintang-ruled areas, and suffered a lot. Now that you have come to the base area, you have returned home, and you have returned to the embrace of the party. You can fight against Japan happily and freely and do the revolution! Today's special meal, please get together, congratulations and welcome!

These words made Lin Ying feel warm and excited.

After listening to Peng Xuefeng's speech, intellectuals felt that they were simple, sensible, insightful, literary and uneducated villagers and soldiers. Everyone nodded frequently, feeling that every sentence can be understood and that every sentence is very interesting.

Without a profound theoretical foundation, cultural literacy and rich experience in mass work, such an easy-to-understand speech cannot be spoken.

Lin Ying is a female worker. When Peng Xuefeng is mentioned, many people will give a thumbs up. Over time, the image of Peng Xuefeng has occupied a place in Lin Ying's heart.

But at this time, Lin Ying is not in the mood to fall in love, and his mind is all on his work.

One day, Lin Ying went to the administrative office after the meeting and was about to leave when Liu Ruilong, director of the administrative office, stopped Lin Ying:

"Xiaolin, let me ask you something. Do you know Mr. Peng Xuefeng? "

"Of course!"

"What's your impression of him?"

"Very impressive!" Lin Ying went on to say: "The first time we met, we left a feeling of being especially sincere and good to people;" Second, equal respect for fellow villagers and soldiers, without the shelf of big cadres; The third is literary talent, a level, a report without a manuscript, which can be written without polishing. It is a good article, well-founded, affectionate and righteous, inspiring and convincing! "

Liu Ruilong is familiar with Lin Ying's temper. She is provocative, bold and witty. She never beats around the bush. In any case, she will express her understanding and impression. No matter who this person is, that's why he asks so directly. He didn't hide anything, just say:

"Lin Ying, I have introduced you to Mr Peng."

"Xiao Lin, I introduced your stubbornness, your personality and your ideals to Teacher Peng. He is willing to establish contact with you. Communicate with you first, and then get in touch to deepen your understanding and see if he can become an ideal lover with you. "

"What, make friends with me?"

The so-called obstinacy means that Lin Ying is saddened by the behavior of not working in real life and then making a vase after marrying a leading cadre, so she once swore on many occasions that she would never associate with such people and never be an official wife!

Listening to the old leader, Lin Ying was very happy. She didn't hide her excitement.

Peng Xuefeng is a person whom she respects and admires very much. He is a famous anti-Japanese hero. He is outstanding in appearance and talent. If you can be his partner, it should be a very happy and beautiful thing.

At this point, she regretted her poisonous oath.

However, the shadow soon calmed down and found herself again. She thinks that if she marries Peng Xuefeng, she will only be the mother of her wife and children, and she will never have her own job, career and pursuit of her independent personality. Then the women's liberation movement I pursued failed. In the past, my family was very wronged, but I still followed my mother's old path, having children and having money. ...

Lin Ying shuddered at the thought of all this, so he replied, "I would like to correspond with Mr. Peng, like a general friend, because I really respect him. Frankly speaking, I really like his chic, free and easy, talent and tolerance." However, respect is not equal to love, and liking is not equal to love. There is a qualitative difference here. I don't know Mr. Peng very well. Contact for a while first to see if you feel the same way. After all, marriage is a life-long event. If the two sides can't understand each other and there is no love, I would rather give this honor to a luckier girl. "

Liu Ruilong knew Lin Ying, and he also knew Peng Xuefeng. In his view, Peng Xuefeng is very demanding of himself, so he must be demanding of his lover. I definitely hope that the other person is both talented and beautiful, with both the gentleness of his wife and the heroism of a soldier. There are both feminine spirits and proletarian ideals. ...

Therefore, Director Liu decided that it was false that Peng Xuefeng did not intend to solve personal problems, and it was true that he did not want to lower the standards.

Liu Ruilong guessed that Lin Ying, an unusual girl, should be able to meet pengpeng's dream.

It was not long before. Lin Ying received a letter. The sender writes about the Fourth Command of the New Fourth Army. Lin Ying knew who wrote it at a glance, and immediately his face turned red and his heart beat faster.

Lin Ying opened the stationery: "I am a very ordinary party member, and I have many shortcomings. I really need a comrade who is not just a comrade. If you know me better, you can help me more and help each other more. "

"If you have time, we need to talk it over ..."

Lin Ying is afraid that after being completely dumped by Peng Xuefeng, she will never leave her affectionate and versatile husband or go to the hinterland with many difficulties and problems, just like ivy climbing trees.

So she decided to talk to Peng Xuefeng.

Peng Xuefeng listened to Lin Ying about her joy, happiness, worry and hesitation after receiving the letter. She fell in love with Lin Ying's cleverness and intelligence, and even more liked her generosity and elegance. There is a feeling that "people are looking for him for thousands of Baidu, and suddenly looking back, that person is under the dim light".

Lin Ying went on to say, "Mr Peng, you know my family. You praised me as a high-ranking lady who can give up her comfortable life and suffer behind enemy lines. You do women's work day and night. You have no idea what my motive is. Of course, resisting Japan and saving the nation is the first law. This second article is my own painful experience. "

"I always remember being slapped and telling myself: I must have my life, my career and my pursuit. I can't go my mother's way, so I came to the base area, unwilling to dance and sing any more, and determined to work for women. In recent years, many comrades have written to me to pursue me, but as long as there is a little disrespect for my personality and career, I will resolutely refuse. Now my only worry is that if you want to transfer me to the division after we get married, I will never make any progress unless I give up my career as a woman. To be fair, there are not many jobs suitable for lesbians in the army. I'm worried that over time, I will become a bird that can't fly under my wings, a grass that can't stand the wind and rain under your big tree, and a vase and decoration for you. It is a pity to abandon it and turn it into a useless plaything. "

Lin Ying's words shocked Peng Xuefeng. He was stunned!

Peng Xuefeng only knew Lin Ying's generosity and enthusiasm before, but never thought Lin Ying had such a character. Before, he just liked Lin Ying's purity and firmness, but now he is more fascinated by Lin Ying's character and pursuit!

This is the revolutionary partner that Peng Xuefeng wants to pursue.

"Miss Lin, let's get married! I will never interfere in your work, nor will I transfer you to my side. If the relationship is long-lasting, will it be a matter of time?' As long as you write to me, as long as I know, no matter how far I go, there is a beautiful girl, a strong comrade, an ideal woman who cares about me, and I will always share the same interests and work hard for the same goal! "

Peng Xuefeng is a gentleman who keeps his word. On the morning of the second day of marriage, Lin Ying went to work.

She didn't expect that the separation on the second day of the wedding would make her feel a little depressed, but she didn't want Peng Xuefeng to see her weakness.

She couldn't help turning to look at her dear husband until she couldn't see the village around the corner ahead. Then she stood at the entrance of the village, saw him turn around, raised her arm high and shouted to her: Be careful all the way!

The political basis of their common life is that "we are loyal and honest to love, just as we are loyal and honest to the party."

After their marriage, they kept in touch with each other by letter, and Lin Ying always insisted on working at the grassroots level.

On one occasion, several army leaders bypassed Peng Xuefeng and went through the formalities of transferring Lin Ying to Peng Xuefeng, but they were opposed by Qi Xin.

In the first few months of marriage, they were together for less than a week. Even Peng Xuefeng said humorously in the letter: "I'm afraid this is rare in ancient and modern times!"

Later, Lin Ying was transferred to work in the county where Peng Xuefeng's troops were located, but Lin Ying still ran to the farthest place from HQ.

Peng Xuefeng knew that she didn't want to be an official's wife. She also respects his wife's determination to stand on her own feet after marriage and allows her to go out to work.

He said: "I think that the vulgar and interesting attitudes and habits between husband and wife can not maintain a good and friendly relationship for a long time, but should adopt an attitude and habit of being strict with teachers, being friends and loving husband and wife, so as to make it permanent."

In daily work and life, Peng Xuefeng is also strict with Lin Ying. She often told Lin Ying that you are from an exploiting class family, and you are the family member of the chief executive, so don't have a special material life.

On one occasion, Lin Ying lost a pen. When a leading comrade knew about it, he gave her a pen. Lin Ying accepted it for work, but Peng Xuefeng knew it was no small matter and could not take advantage of the public, so he paid off the money for Lin Ying with his own contribution.

For this matter, Lin Linying recalled: "Although our time together is very short, I was deeply impressed by your excellent quality and hard-working life style. Many of your teachings to me have always been a force that spurs me and inspires me to keep moving forward. "

They convey their feelings through letters. From September 194 1 to July 1944, Peng Xuefeng wrote more than 80 letters to Lin Ying in less than three years.

The correspondence between the two people is always written by Peng Xuefeng. Every time the envelope is bulging, Lin Ying's reply is often short and thin.

In her letters, Peng Xuefeng often criticized her letters as "too simple" and "too abstract", and even complained that "the most urgent thing is that I haven't heard from you for a long time, and the most annoying thing is that I have never seen your long letter!"

1945 65438+ 10 month, they have been married for three years, but Lin Ying calculated carefully that the date of the couple's reunion was completely included, and it was less than half a year.

Lin Ying misses her husband who risked his life very much. He treasures every letter that Peng Xuefeng gave him. Each piece of paper is folded one by one according to the time of receipt and bound into a book with needle and thread. Every time in the dead of night, he will read it carefully from beginning to end, just like reading a specified number.

Time passed little by little in the process of Lin Ying's missing her husband, and Lin Ying finally got the chance to meet them.

This morning, Lin Ying came back to visit her husband with her son.

After the ship arrived, Lin Ying didn't see her husband's tall figure on the shore. After landing, Lin Yinger eagerly looking for. ...

"Comrade Lin Ying, I tell you, Comrade Feng Xue died heroically!" Political commissar Deng Zihui said with regret.

"Is this true? ! "Lin Ying was almost stunned.

"Last September 1 1, Comrade Feng Xue died in the battle of Lizhuang in Xiayi, Henan."

"The political commissar must have made a mistake!" Lin Ying hurriedly took out three telegrams from her pocket: "This is a telegram from Xuefeng before and after I gave birth to Xiaofeng. It's all from this year. How did he die last September? "

Teacher Zhang Aiping burst into tears: "Comrade Lin Ying, please forgive me. I drafted these telegrams on behalf of Feng Xue. We can't bear to let you sit on the moon too sad! "

Lin Ying walked into the mourning hall with the help of Peng Xuefeng. When she saw Peng Xuefeng smiling in the mourning hall, her tears brushed down: "Feng Xue, Feng Xue, don't go, I still have a lot to say to you! ..... Xuefeng, Xuefeng, I will never see you again. I don't have a chance to change ... Snow maple, you have a son, but our little maple hasn't seen dad yet ... "

In those painful days, Lin Ying received many phone calls from home and abroad, expressing cordial condolences to her and her children, and Deng also visited them. I hope Lin Ying can get back on his feet.

Lin Ying gave the child to her sister Qiu to take care of, and went to work again. He is determined to raise his son. She wants to tell her son what a good man his father is and will never let him down.

In memory of the revolutionary predecessors who shed their blood for the new China, and their touching love!
