Hu Yousong: My mother's property has been spent by her adoptive mother. She has no father's love all her life. She married Li Zongren, 76.

-Hu Yousong, an old man with silver hair at the moment, has tears in his eyes and misses the past. She was Li Zongren's last wife, and Li Zongren was the most concerned person before his death.

1On April 5th, 938, under the command of Li Zongren, the great war against Japanese invaders was completely won. The plan of the Japanese army to open up two battlefields in North and South China was blocked, which was the biggest victory of China's army since the Anti-Japanese War. This battle inspired the confidence of the Chinese nation to win the Anti-Japanese War.

In this way, "Taierzhuang Victory" has become one of Li Zongren's lifelong achievements, which is talked about by the world. Zhou Enlai evaluated Li Zongren and did two good things in his life: one was Taierzhuang, and the other was to return to the motherland.

But as the last wife of Li Zongren, she was also inextricably linked with Taierzhuang in her later years. She stayed in Taierzhuang, a small town that left a strong impression on Li Zongren. Hu Yousong, she has never experienced the glory of her mother, because she was born different. Mother is busy making a living on weekdays. She has no home. Their "home" is the long private room of the hotel. There is no father there, and she can't see her mother all day. Whenever she asks her mother about her father, she will always be scolded, "You only have a mother, but no father!" "

At a young age, she doesn't know how to deal with the gossip of other children. She can only pretend not to care. She has many godmothers. She hid the word "dad" in her heart and pretended that she was very happy, not only with her mother, but also with many "godmothers", and there were many beautiful skirts and toys that children didn't have. She shows off all this.

At the age of 27, Hu Yousong changed her life because she met Li Zongren. Li Zongren was old at that time. At the age of 76, he was 49 years behind her. Li Zongren, who has just experienced the pain of losing his wife, is far away from home and needs a caring person to accompany and take care of him. After screening by secretary Cheng Siyuan, Hu Yousong, who was still a nurse at that time, was attracted by Li Zongren at a glance, and Li Zongren was very positive about her vision.

When I first arrived at Li Mansion, I was a little shy. Li Zongren showed her around and introduced them one by one. "This is the study, I usually work here. This is the restaurant, and we will eat here in a moment. " Hu Yousong's heart was puzzled. She wondered why she wanted to stay for dinner after work.

Later, someone told Hu Yousong that Li Zongren wanted her to be his personal care and accompany him forever. Zhou Enlai stepped forward to do the work. He thinks that if Hu Yousong is his nurse, he can only go to work on time, and there is no 24-hour escort. If you want her to stay with you all the time, marry her at home. Li Zongren naturally happy, just don't know the meaning of Hu Yousong, after all, their age is there.

Originally worried about Hu Yousong's inner conflict, the leader personally sent someone to do Hu Yousong's work, but Hu Yousong readily agreed. At this time, Hu Yousong still lives with her foster mother, who she hates. Since she got eczema in Shanghai at the age of 6, she was handed over by her mother to Shen, the aunt of warlord Zhang Zongchang, and brought to Beijing with a relatively dry climate. From then on, she left with her only relative, and her mother hurried to see her, and then there was no news.

The property that Shen's mother gave her before she left was not used on her, but was squandered by Shen herself, and she even often beat and scolded her. In the cold of June 5438+February in Beijing, as long as she was unhappy, she was expelled from home. Hu Yousong, who has no relatives or friends, is helpless at the moment. Even if she is beaten and scolded, she must endure begging for mercy, because she has nowhere to go.

As a girl, Hu Yousong inherited her mother's beauty, but she was always preoccupied. Because of her background, she kept these secrets in her deepest heart. She enjoyed the praise of others for her beauty and called her "the apple of her mother's eye". It was not until Hu Yousong's name was deleted from the list of the first group members that her previous name was found out.

Hu Ruomei, the name is what her mother expected of her when she was born. She is as beautiful and strong as plum blossom. She hopes to be as strong-willed as a pine and cypress when she grows up and change her name to Hu Yousong. She tried to integrate into the society, but she grew up in glitz, which was incompatible with that fiery era and became more and more silent. When she heard that she could stay with Li Zongren and leave her foster mother's "home", she accepted it.

1966 On July 26th, 27-year-old Hu Yousong and 76-year-old Li Zongren got married in Li Zongren Mansion. Hu Yousong, who had no father since childhood, slowly felt Li Zongren's love. At first, Hu Yousong was not used to it, because she was abused during her stay with her adoptive mother. She is alert, sleeps lightly, and is often awakened by the slightest movement. Li Zongren was thinking about this little wife, worried that she was freezing, and often went to cover her with a quilt in the middle of the night until Hu Yousong got bored and asked him not to disturb her rest.

Li Zongren found another way. Later, he went barefoot in the middle of the night and laughed at himself for being like Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek got up early every day for fear of waking Song Meiling, so he walked barefoot on the cold ground and washed carefully with a flashlight. Li Zongren is like this, moisten things silently. Hu Yousong had an upset stomach, so the doctor prescribed four or two pumpkin seeds, but Hu Yousong didn't know how to eat them, so he put them on hold.

Li Zongren sat at the table and chewed the four melon seeds one by one overnight. Until Hu Yousong woke up, he found a plate of melon seeds filled with Mr. Li's care. This move warmed Hu Yousong. For the first time, she felt cared for and cared for. She decided to live with Li Zongren and take good care of him. They draw pictures together, read newspapers and play chess together, and spend their own time together.

This love for the past did not last long. 1968 On September 30th, attending the National Day dinner in the Great Hall of the People, Li Zongren suddenly became seriously ill and was rushed to Beijing Hospital. The test result is rectal cancer. Hu Yousong was dragged out of the bubble of happiness by fate. She ran out of the ward and went to the bathroom to cry.

Li Zongren didn't beat the disease in the end. 65438+ 19691On October 30th, Li Zongren's life stopped at the age of 78. On his deathbed, Hu Yousong was still his concern. He said to Hu Yousong, "Your personality is too strong, so I don't trust you. Tomb-Sweeping Day don't forget to sweep my grave and let the world know that I still have a young wife. "

Shortly after Li Zongren's death, in the stormy sixties, Hu Yousong was sent to the May 7th Cadre School of Shayang Farm in Wuhan to participate in labor reform. In the meantime, she changed her third name "Damon" in her life and started again like dawn. From 65438 to 0973, under the care of Premier Zhou, she chose a new job and entered the First Historical Archives of China. 1985, she began to live incognito. She didn't forget to study and specialize in painting. She went to the university for the aged to study painting, and painting made rapid progress. 1933, Hu Yousong converted to Buddhism in the name of "Miaohui layman" and devoted himself to teaching Buddhism and calligraphy.

Hu Yousong, who is spiritually independent, does not covet Li Zongren's property, but she is gratified by Li Zongren's intentions. Every year in Tomb-Sweeping Day, she always comes rain or shine. Even though she has been alone for many years now, every time she goes to Li Zongren's mausoleum, she still appears as Li Furen.

During the period from 1969 to 1982, Hu Yousong turned over Li Zongren's private deposit of over 80,000 yuan and the living expenses paid by the state137,000 yuan to the state treasury twice. She also donated Li Zongren's 160 historical photos of Zhang Zhengui to the China History Museum (the predecessor of China National Museum).

Taierzhuang people are inextricably linked with Li Zongren. They remembered the hero and cared for his widow Hu Yousong. After many twists and turns, the leaders of Taierzhuang District found Hu Yousong and said, "Taierzhuang is your mother's family", which opened the locked heart window of Hu Yousong, and two lines of clear tears slipped quietly. She said that she wanted to visit Taierzhuang.

Hu Yousong came to Taierzhuang for the first time, but because of her husband, she has the same deep feelings for Taierzhuang. She decided to settle in Taierzhuang and became the honorary curator of the "Li Zongren Historical Materials Museum" built for Li Zongren by the people of Taierzhuang. The Taierzhuang War Memorial Hall, which was raised by the people of Taierzhuang, invested more than 20 million yuan, all of which was raised by villagers. From these aspects, Hu Yousong felt the feelings of the people in Taierzhuang, and respected and cherished history, which was enough to tell future generations the glorious history of patriotism and revolutionary heroism.

All these experiences deeply touched Hu Yousong. She donated famous works, more than 200 photos and letters collected by Li Zongren in his life, a 45-catty bronze bust of Li Zongren presented by former Vietnamese democracy and Ho Chi Minh, a centennial gold watch presented by Swiss watch factory to heads of state, and a Firefox specimen named "soft gold" presented by General Fu to Taierzhuang.

Even though Hu Yousong was hungry and cold, she never sold her inheritance. Now, in Taierzhuang, she thinks that these relics should be placed in this, the most glorious memorial site in Li Zongren, and she will be in this town for Li Zongren's wake. Hu Yousong has no regrets about the first half of his life, and cherishes the second half even more. She takes care of library affairs and studies painting in her spare time.

When copying earlier, she found that she had a gift for this. During her one-year return to Beijing, she created 40 works, all of which were sent to Taierzhuang. She likes painting plum blossoms and peonies, praised by famous artists in Beijing and loved by collectors from all walks of life. Her colleagues have collected or donated hundreds of works. Even though the country sympathized with her and took care of her, she still insisted on taking care of her life alone, which could have satisfied her life, but she still lived a frugal life and donated her little pension to Hope Primary School.

In the charity sale of calligraphy and painting for flood fighting and disaster relief, she donated all the 5200 yuan from selling paintings to the people in the disaster area. There are many puzzles in Hu Yousong's life. Thousands of ravines in her heart finally condensed into her actions in silence. Her heart has found a home in Taierzhuang, which is the terminal of her life. She said, "Only in this way, my husband is the closest to me."

Hu Yousong's life is independent of her own, and her complete personality belongs to her because of Li Zongren's influence. At the age of 69, she unfortunately got cancer. In the face of such bad luck, she was particularly calm: "My husband and I were in the same boat and died with the same disease." After three times of chemotherapy, Hu Yousong didn't want to continue. She doesn't want to burden people in Taierzhuang, and she doesn't want to look so embarrassed at the end of her life.

The rest of the time, she posted a note in front of her residence, which read "No self-study" and made careful arrangements for her funeral. She has made at least five wills: handing over all the relics she gave to the Li Zongren Historical Materials Museum and all the things in her Beijing residence to the Taierzhuang Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, donating all the things in her Taierzhuang residence and thousands of dollars and thousands of Hong Kong dollars in cash to Taierzhuang, and proposing to set up a charity fund;

Her funeral affairs were handed over to Jinshan Temple in Qingyun Island, Dezhou, Shandong Province. There was no memorial service, and the ashes were placed in Tianmu Mountain Temple in Zhejiang. Originally, her first will said that the ashes were placed in Taierzhuang, but I heard that it was difficult to handle. Under the persuasion of Buddhist friends, it was changed to Tianmu Mountain a week later. This is her regret;

About 654.38+10,000 yuan was deposited in the personal passbook, 20,000 yuan was donated to the temple where her funeral was held, 20,000 yuan was paid for the funeral expenses of the Buddhist friends behind her, and the rest was given to the Buddhist friends for charity; Some of his paintings before his death were donated to the Taierzhuang War Memorial Hall, and the rest were given to Buddhist friends as souvenirs.

On June 4th, 2008,165438+1October 4th, she went to the hospital alone because of a fever. At this point, her cancer cells have spread all over her body, and she knows that her life is coming to an end, just waiting for this moment. 165438+1October 18 She went to Qingyun County, Texas, and lived in Jinshan Temple on an island. In the ritual atmosphere where dozens of monks and Buddhist friends prayed devoutly together, 1654381At 6: 00 pm on October 25th, Hu Yousong ended his 69-year life as a "wise Buddhist". ...
