Lu Xun, a 49-year-old old boys, went crazy to bask in babies everywhere and wrote a nursery rhyme, which has been passed down to this day.

"Little red elephant, little red elephant.

Little elephant, little red, little elephant red.

Little elephant, little red, little red elephant.

Xiao Hong, Xiao Xiang, Xiao Hong. "

To many people's disbelief, this "Tik Tok Big Bang" was written by Mr. Lu Xun.

The little red elephant here refers to his youngest son, Zhou Haiying. This nursery rhyme is an essential divine comedy for Lu Xun to put Zhou Haiying to sleep.

Zhou Haiying was spoiled by Lu Xun, but it was only seven short years.

1929 On September 26th, Zhou Haiying was born.

But his birth was purely accidental, because their family life was in a state of drift from place to place at that time, and there was no necessary living guarantee.

So they didn't want children, but contraception failed.

When Zhou Haiying was discovered, the two men discussed it for a long time and decided to keep him.

However, on the day of delivery, because Xu Guangping is an elderly woman, natural delivery is very difficult. At that time, the doctor asked whether to protect adults or children. Lu Xun did not hesitate to say "Bao Da Ren".

Fortunately, the child was pinched out by the doctor with pliers, and Xu Guangping was safe and sound.

After seeing Zhou Haiying, Lu Xun said in a slightly naughty tone: "It's a person, no wonder it's so hateful!"

That year, Lu Xun was 49 years old.

Because I have a child in my later years, I cherish this child very much.

Speaking of naming, Lu Xun felt that he had been in Shanghai for 10 years, so he named his child "Yinghai" for fear that the child would not like the name. He also specially said:

"If the child doesn't like this name when he grows up, he can change it."

Later, Zhou Haiying got the nickname "Little Red Elephant" as a pet, because Xu Guangping called Lu Xun "White Elephant" and Zhou Haiying was born with red skin, so he was called "Little Red Elephant".

Every time Zhou Haiying is put to bed, the "first priority" must be done by Lu Xun himself. He also specially wrote a nursery rhyme:

Little red, little elephant, little red elephant.

Little elephant, little red, little elephant red.

Incredibly, Zhou Haiying falls asleep sweetly every time he listens to this song.

Zhou Haiying was very weak when he was a child. Children cry when they feel uncomfortable. Every time he cries, Lu Xun will become the person with the best ears in his family.

At the slightest sound, he would run to Zhou Haiying's side.

In order to strengthen Zhou Haiying's physique, Lu Xun specially developed a set of feeding methods of breast milk, milk and rice soup, and even designed four methods to relieve asthma.

Sometimes Zhou Haiying goes to the hospital to see a doctor. If he is not here, he will buy two gifts when he goes home, one for Zhou Haiying and the other for the doctor who sees Zhou Haiying.

Once, while taking refuge in a shelter in the British Concession, Zhou Haiying fell ill again. Lu Xun looked at the harsh environment and took Xu Guangping and Zhou Haiying directly to the hotel.

Lu Xun can only write poems to refute it.

He said, "Look at a thousand fingers, bow your head and be a willing ox."

That boy is little Zhou Haiying.

Mr. Lu Xun once said: "In order to raise this son, I want to be twenty-five filial fathers."

When Zhou Haiying was a little older, Lu Xun regarded him as a treasure even more.

Zhou Haiying in every letter to a good friend is bound to mention:

He once wrote:

"Meet the sea this guy is very naughty. Two or three days ago, he issued a rather reactionary declaration saying,' What kind of father is this? It's really hard. Children nowadays are more troublesome. "

"Meet the sea, know the love of beauty. He wants to imitate me and compare me. Only clothes refuse to imitate me casually, love beauty and want to wear a dress. "

"It's good to meet the sea. Her face is tanned and her body is stronger than last year. Besides, she seems to be more obedient and less unreasonable recently. But because I am old, I have to listen to stories every night about how bears live and how radishes grow up. Quite a waste of time. "

"If I go out, I will be in trouble. Three neighbors warned me ... but at home, it made me fidget. I hope he is in his twenties and elopes with his lover. That's good. "

Once, Zhou Haiying was eating fish ball soup, but as soon as he ate it, he felt stale, so he muttered something to an adult.

But Xu Guangping didn't believe it, so he gave Zhou Haiying another one. As a result, Zhou Haiying complained that it was not fresh.

Just as the mother and son were arguing about whether the fish balls were fresh or not, Lu Xun served them to Zhou Haiying's dishes and found that they were not fresh.

Later, Lu Xun said: "What he said is not new, and there must be his truth. It is wrong to erase it without checking it. "

For Zhou Haiying, Lu Xun could even change himself.

Without Zhou Haiying, his favorite place to go is the bookstore, but with Zhou Haiying, his favorite place to go has become a toy store.

Once, he bought a set of children's carpenter's tools for Zhou Haiying. Zhou Haiying was very happy when he got it, so he beat it with a small hammer all day, and his home became a carpenter's shop.

Lu Xun, who has always been quiet, is particularly happy. He is glad to see his children having fun.

Yu Dafu also recalled in the article that Lu Xun seldom laughed. He only saw it once. On that occasion, Lu Xun came downstairs and said with a big smile: "Yinghai, a child, just asked me when I would die. He seems eager to occupy my study. "

After saying his word, there were bursts of laughter.

Although Lu Xun was particularly fond of Zhou Haiying, he was angry with Zhou Haiying.

One day, Zhou Haiying refused to go to school anyway, and Lu Xun spanked him with a newspaper. Later, Lu Xun wrote to his mother and explained, "It was loud during the war, but it didn't hurt."

This noisy life lasted until Zhou Haiying was seven years old.

1936 10 One night in October, Zhou Haiying shouted "Meeting in the Ming Dynasty!" Call his father before going to bed.

But that day, he shouted several times and got no response.

What Zhou Haiying didn't know was that Lu Xun was in poor health at this time, and he had reached the point where he didn't even have the strength to get out of bed. He always feels phlegm in his throat, but he can't make a sound when he wants to talk.

But when he heard Zhou Haiying's "Fair Ming Dynasty!" Later, he tried to answer him, but his voice was too low for Zhou Haiying to hear.

Zhou Haiying thought that his father might not have heard him, so he kept shouting: "Dad, Ming Dynasty, Dad, Ming Dynasty, Dad, Ming Dynasty ..."

Lu Xun replied to Zhou Haiying in a hurry. He sat up, held his head high and tried his best.

But the voice is still very small, Zhou Haiying didn't hear it.

Later, when Xu Guangping heard the noisy Zhou Haiying, he quickly reprimanded him. Zhou Haiying, who is unknown, cried and muttered:

"Dad is deaf!"

A few days later, Lu Xun passed away.

Zhou Haiying didn't hear the "Ming Hui", which turned out to be the last goodnight farewell of father and son.

Worried about his youngest son, Lu Xun wrote in his will:

When children grow up, if they have no talent, they can find something to live on, and never be short writers or artists.

As the son of a father, Zhou Haiying fell in love with photography within a few years.

But he just silently took it as a hobby. After graduating from Peking University Physics Department, he became a radio expert.

More than 20,000 works he shot have never been published.

When he was 80 years old, his son Zhou Lingfei offered to hold a photo exhibition for his father Zhou Haiying as a gift for his 80th birthday.

But Zhou Haiying has been worried. He thinks that if these photos are not taken well, they will bring shame to Lu Xun.

"I don't know if these photos are valuable or worth showing to everyone."

Two years later, Zhou Haiying died.

Perhaps he didn't think that the works he shot would be passed down by future generations, nor did he think that his photography also left a particularly important mark in history.

He didn't embarrass Lu Xun.
