In the hearts of the people of the whole country, the revolutionary partner formed by Zhou Enlai and Deng Yingchao is an indisputable model couple. The two recognize and love each other in the chaotic world, and the feelings between them are not at first sight, let alone the supremacy of love, but stem from common beliefs and revolutionary ideals. Their love was accompanied by the difficult entrepreneurial years of the Revolution and the Republic, and the ups and downs of decades together are still intense. Premier Zhou once said that he was an unswerving materialist, but because of Mother Deng, he hoped that there could be an afterlife, which may be the most beautiful and sincere love story in the world.
Although the love wife of the two people is perfect, she also has a small regret that they do not have children of their own. In our traditional culture, heirs are crucial to a family and often symbolize the maturity and happiness of marriage. In fact, in the years of marriage, Deng Yingchao was pregnant twice, but at that time, in the era of revolutionary struggle, her two children were not able to keep.
In 1919, when the Might Fourth Movement swept the country like a storm, Deng Yingchao, who organized the student movement in Tianjin, was in her cardamom years, and she met Premier Zhou for the first time at the age of 21. At that time, they were all unswerving celibacy, one believing that only celibacy could guarantee that all their energy could be devoted to the revolution, and the other believing that once women in the new era sat on the palanquin, their lives would be ruined. Many years later, the two often sat together and thought about this idea when they were young, which was fun and interesting.
After May Fourth, Premier Zhou went to Study in France, during which there was an endless stream of suitors, but his heart only remembered the simple and resolute little girl he met in Tianjin. They began to write letters to each other, and the seeds of love grew stronger and stronger in the book of Hongyan Chuan, and the common faith made the hearts of the two people tightly tied together. In 1925, Deng Yingchao was appointed minister of women in Guangdong, and the two also formed a revolutionary couple in Guangzhou.
Soon after the marriage, Deng Yingchao found out that she was pregnant, but because it was at a critical moment of the revolution, she felt that if she gave birth to a child at this time, it would not be conducive to her work, so she beat the child off. The next year Deng Yingchao became pregnant again, at the insistence of Premier Zhou, after discussions with her family, this time she decided to give birth to the child, but unfortunately because the neonatal medical technology at that time was too backward, the child died after birth. The roof leaked in the overnight rain, just after the pain of losing their son, some people in the team rebelled against the enemy, Premier Zhou and his wife had to move to other places immediately, deng Yingchao, who should have been recuperating for a while, fell ill due to high tension and the boat and car, and was considered to have no way to get pregnant again.
In the years that followed, the husband and wife threw themselves into the revolutionary cause and eventually helped New China stand tall in the forest of the world. At the same time, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the medical level in China has also been greatly improved, once Deng Yingchao went to The Union Hospital for examination, and Dr. Lin Qiaozhi, who treated her, told her that if she needed it, she could conceive the child again through treatment, but she refused. The reason for the refusal was simple, that is, she was 45 years old at the time, her physical condition was not allowed, and for many years she and Premier Zhou had long been accustomed to life without children, not to mention that Premier Zhou also said that they were not childless, and the children of the whole country were their children.
Deng Yingchao has been very concerned about children all her life, and during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, she once organized a childcare club and worked hard to save the refugee children. In seven years, she led the creation of more than 50 nurseries and rescued nearly 30,000 refugee children. The eldest of these children was only 15 years old, they grew up in the nursery health and safety, and later they all became the pillars of the country, some are engineers, some are university professors, some are the backbone of the party, they have different identities, but they all have a common mother, that is, Deng Yingchao. The fact that these children who struggled to survive in the war and chaos were able to become talents later not only demonstrated the greatness of Deng Yingchao, but also proved the powerful contributions of women during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Deng Yingchao still cared about children's causes and put forward valuable opinions on many children's work, and her educational ideas have made outstanding contributions to China's children's education work. Although she never had any children of her own in her life, she sprinkled deeper and greater maternal love all over the motherland.
Deng Yingchao, who retired from her post in 1988, is still concerned about the development of the socialist cause, and she has always adhered to the spirit of revolution to old age after pursuing the truth all her life. From a young man's determination to save the country to his devotion to the patriotic movement, from joining the revolutionary cause to leading the liberation of women, this revolutionary has unreservedly dedicated everything to the cause of the motherland. Although she and Premier Zhou did not have children of their own, they gave greater love to more people.
