Mao Zeyou was only 12 and a half years old at that time. He went to Shaoshan Primary School early that morning and missed the opportunity to take a photo with Chairman Mao. Every time I listen to my father talking about taking pictures and look at the smile on his face, he always wants to see that picture with his own eyes one day.

Mao Zeyou said,1June 26th, 959 was a sunny day. At 8 o'clock in the morning, my father Mao Yisheng cut cattle and grass at the foot of Chairman Mao's parents' cemetery. A staff member dressed as a cadre asked his father if he had seen Chairman Mao. His father replied that he hadn't seen him for decades. Then the staff told his father that Chairman Mao would come soon.

"My father is a bit dubious. When he was still chatting with the staff member, Chairman Mao had already gone down the mountain after giving his parents a grave. " Mao Zeyou said that before his father could react, Chairman Mao greeted him, took the initiative to hold his father's hand and had a cordial conversation.

"When Chairman Mao went to Tangjia, Xiejiawutang, he said that he must go in and have a chat." Mao Zeyou said that after Chairman Mao entered the hall, he sat on a small square stool. Mao Xiasheng, the brother of Tang's husband, stopped stepping on the field and ran into the hall to sit beside Chairman Mao. Tang and her eldest son and sister-in-law are standing on Chairman Mao's right. His father, Mao Yisheng, and a female worker are standing next to Tang.

Mao Zeyou pointed to the right trouser leg of Guo Dingshan in the photo and the expression of his father's brief conversation with Guo Dingshan. He thought this photo was the most lively, and it happened to be captured by the photographer.
