Although martyrs died, they are always remembered by the world and live in people's hearts. Regardless of that person's identity, intellectual? Revolutionaries? Or those at the bottom of society, as long as their conscience is still there, then the deeds and spirit of the martyrs will always move them.
In the last century, an incident occurred, the martyr Lin Juemin handed over his suicide note to a trustworthy person before his death, and asked his friend to personally deliver this heavy suicide note full of love to his family.
On the way home from his friend, he met the robber, who had thought that the robber had lost his conscience, but when he saw the letter, he cried bitterly and returned the looted things to his original owner. What kind of person is Lin Juemin, who can even make the robbers move!
Hipsters who are ahead of the times
Lin Juemin was born in 1887, his hometown is in Fuzhou, his father died a few years after his birth, coupled with his uncle's love for him and his own children are few, so Lin Juemin was passed on to his uncle as a son at an early age.
Fortunately, although Lin Juemin was not his uncle's biological son, his uncle paid attention to the education of his children at a very young age, and his uncle was very cultured and full of scriptures, and he also wrote many articles.
The uncle is also Lin Juemin's current mother, her personality is gentle and virtuous, and when she treats Xiao Juemin, she regards him as her own son, and treats Xiao Juemin very patiently and kindly.
In this family environment full of books, but also full of harmony and love, Lin Juemin grew up very well, coupled with his own intelligence and wit, with the opportunity to read, he also did not let go, to study, he is very hard.
In that feudal era, the whole society was pervasive with the atmosphere of taking the imperial examination, and his uncle also taught him to take the imperial examination when he grew up to take the imperial examination to obtain a meritorious name.
However, Lin Juemin's thinking was advanced, he saw the feudal fiasco of that era, and he deeply knew that the imperial examination was gradually moving towards the end of corruption, so when he had to take the imperial examination, he also did not write a relevant word on the entire paper, he just wrote the unforgettable "Teenagers Do Not Expect Ten Thousand Households Hou" seven big characters on the examination paper, and then Lin Juemin left the examination room.
There is love in the heart, shining in all directions
The disappointment of this examination room was only an inevitable choice for him, but fortunately, he later received new ideas and new education.
In 1902, under the influence of his uncle, Lin Juemin was admitted to the Quanmin University Hall, which was different from the previous feudal school, which taught students the very advanced ideas of democratic revolution at that time, and Lin Juemin was also very willing to learn this ideological education.
The more he studied in this school, the more he knew about the corruption and backwardness of education at that time, when it was the period of reform and reform, the reformists advocated the reform and the innovation of education at the same time, so Lin Juemin praised them very much for the "revolution and education in parallel", and later he practiced it, and under his own continuous struggle, he and a few ideologically progressive classmates ran private schools.
If he wants the whole society to participate in this movement, he must first mobilize from the people around him. His wife is an empathetic woman who supports her husband's career unconditionally.
Here I would like to add that Lin Juemin and his wife Chen Yiying married under the advice of their family, and at first Lin Juemin protested against this behavior very much, but he could not resist the persuasion of his parents, and he still obeyed his parents' words.
When he first met Chen Yiying, he was deeply attracted by Chen Yiying's gentle and bookish temperament, Chen Yiying was a typical lady in the feudal period, and their husband and wife relationship was very good after they got married, even if Chen Yiying's thoughts were not as advanced as Lin Juemin's, but she still unconditionally supported her husband's career and shared worries for her husband.
Participate in the revolution, die in the heart
After Lin Juemin ran his own private school, he personally taught courses in Chinese, and he put forward a severe criticism of feudal superstitious ideas, and he advocated that everyone in society was equal, and the status of men and women should be equal.
He always likes to go to the places where some people gather to spread some advanced revolutionary ideas, and he consciously puts social responsibility on himself.
In order to pursue more advanced knowledge, in 1907 Lin Juemin bid farewell to his wife Chen Yiying and traveled east to Japan to study, where he continued to study, and later influenced by the people around him, he joined the Chinese League and began a real revolutionary career.
Later, after he learned of an uprising in Guangzhou, he quickly returned to Guangzhou from Japan, and soon after he returned to Hong Kong.
He knew that if he did not protect himself in this revolution, he would be in great danger of life, and after he returned to his hometown to visit his relatives, he wrote "The Book of the Father" and the "Letter with His Wife" on a handkerchief in the middle of the night, one for his father, who had always loved him, and one for his wife who silently supported him.
In 1911, Lin Juemin participated in the Guangzhou Uprising led by Huang Xing. This uprising had a great impact in China, but their lives, the revolutionaries, were threatened, and most of the revolutionaries were captured.
In the same year, when Lin Juemin was 24 years old, his life was completely frozen, he was shot at the Tianzi Wharf in Guangzhou, and his suicide note was also brought back to Fuzhou by Lin Zhongxin and preserved.
When Lin Zhongxin rushed to Shaowu, he was robbed, and when the robbers saw the suicide note and learned that its owner was the martyr Lin Juemin, they actually knelt down and cried while reading the suicide note, and then the robbers returned the things he had robbed to Lin Zhongxin along with the handkerchief, and escorted him all the way back to Fuzhou.
brief summary:
Although the martyr Lin Juemin has only lived in this world for twenty-four years, he has lived in the hearts of the people for countless years, in other words, there is a great need for upright and selfless people in heaven, and after Lin Juemin completed his mission, he went to heaven in advance to continue to spread advanced ideas.
Some people are dead, but he is still alive, some people are alive, but he is dead. Mr. Lu Xun once said that the meaning of a person's existence does not lie in how many years he has lived in this world, but on whether the value of his life has been realized.
Lin Juemin's value has been realized, not only the social value, but also the value of his own life, he has always been remembered by the world, for the martyrs, we should have reverence and praise.
