Everyone knows Premier Zhou, but in fact, he also has two younger brothers, Zhou Enpu and Zhou Enshou, who threw themselves into the revolution like Premier Zhou, and Zhou Enpu was even more heroic in the process of revolution.
Premier Zhou has no descendants in his lifetime, the descendants of his two younger brothers have become the closest family members to him, and the three brothers of Premier Zhou have not spent much time together.
Full of heroes, single-mindedly investing in the revolution for the country
Premier Zhou and his two younger brothers have successively thrown themselves into the revolution, they are each other's most trusted relatives, and they are also comrades and comrades-in-arms who can give their backs to each other. Premier Zhou and his second brother Zhou Enpu were only a year apart in age, and due to family traditions, Premier Zhou was passed on to his childless uncle, who died not long after, and his life was in difficulty.
Premier Zhou's biological parents saw that his life was difficult and had been silently helping him. After a long time together, Premier Zhou and his second brother Zhou Enpu formed a deep family relationship, and Zhou Enpu also slowly became an upright and firm person under the influence of his eldest brother.
When Zhou Enpu was 19 years old, his family went to the northeast to work, during which he met his future wife Wang Lanfang, the two were deeply attracted to each other, and soon fell in love, and promised each other for life. The domestic situation changed very quickly, and the September 18 Incident broke out in 1931, after which the Japanese and Kosovo intensified their efforts and invaded China in an all-round way in 1937.
Zhou Enpu saw this situation, so he left the northeast and went to Shandong to join the army and join the local anti-Japanese national salvation team. In 1945, Zhou Enpu did not sacrifice himself on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War, but was arrested by the Kuomintang, who was tortured to extract a confession, and the Kuomintang wanted to obtain the whereabouts of Premier Zhou in this way.
Zhou Enpu
The Kuomintang underestimated Zhou Enpu's will, and he did not say any information about Premier Zhou and was brutally murdered by Kuomintang agents. Wang Lanfang was saddened to hear the news of her husband's death, and took her only son, Zhou Rongqing, to live a life of constant running.
The third brother, Zhou Enshou, joined the revolution earlier than Zhou Enpu, and he became a communist at the age of 20 and fought for the revolutionary cause all his life. Zhou Enshou had been on the battlefield many times and had been injured, but all of them were not dangerous.
Premier Zhou had made Zhou Enshou his connector, and at that time Zhou Enshou chose to be an ordinary person, but he still helped Premier Zhou to travel to his destination in the Soviet Union, although the search of the Japanese Kou was very strict, and he also wanted to help Premier Zhou regardless of his life. After that, Zhou Enshou worked in the rear and met his lover Wang Shiqin in Harbin, and the two married in 1936.
Zhou Enshou
After that, the husband and wife engaged in business, provided a source of materials for our party, and gave birth to six children. After the founding of New China, the six children all made a career in their respective fields, and some of them were not arrogant and impatient, and they were very low-key.
The three brothers are all devoted to the revolution, which can be described as a hero, their children and girlfriends are obscure, low-key, and some have made a career. First of all, let's talk about Zhou Enpu's son, after his father's sacrifice, how is his life with his mother?
Mother and son run, and the son factory meets lovers
After Zhou Enpu's sacrifice, his wife Wang Lanfang turned grief into motivation and took on the responsibility of raising her son alone. Zhou Enpu and his wife had only one son, named Zhou Rongqing.
Since the death of their father, the mother and son have been traveling all over the world to make a living. During this period, for various reasons, they were unable to meet with Premier Zhou, and Wang Lanfang never revealed her identity to others. In 1950, Wang Lanfang took Zhou Rongqing to Beijing to meet Premier Zhou.
Premier Zhou saw that his sister-in-law and nephew were so miserable, so he let them settle in Beijing.
Wang Lanfang's physical condition is not good, and Premier Zhou hopes that she can retire and that her daily life will be guaranteed by him. Premier Zhou took 50 yuan out of his salary every month to help the mother and son live. Zhou Rongqing was 21 years old at the time, and Premier Zhou wanted him to be self-reliant, and 50 yuan was only used for his mother's treatment.
Zhou Rongqing chose to join the army, first, because his life can be guaranteed, and second, he hopes to defend the motherland like his father.
After arriving in the army, he never told anyone that he was Premier Zhou's nephew, and until he retired from the army, he became an ordinary worker again. In an ordinary steel factory in Jiaozuo, Henan, he still did not tell others about his special identity and worked steadily.
His generosity and hard work attracted another young girl, her name was Jin Juqing. The two people soon fell in love, and in the process of getting along, she heard her colleague say that her lover was Premier Zhou's nephew, she couldn't believe it, personally confirmed to him, and got a positive reply.
After this girl heard about it, she felt that her family lineage was not worthy of him, and even had the idea of breaking up. Under the patient persuasion of Zhou Rongqing, she did not leave Zhou Rongqing, but chose to start from herself, do things in a low-key manner, and do her part with peace of mind. After the two people got married, they were very affectionate and lived a very low-key life.
After Zhou Enpu's sacrifice, Premier Zhou was very distressed, so he took good care of his sister-in-law and nephew. After Zhou Rongqing and Jin Juqing fell in love, Premier Zhou wrote a congratulatory letter for them to congratulate them on the marriage. Deng Yingchao heard that his lover's nephew was married, and he also wanted to meet his niece and daughter-in-law.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Rongqing have been working in the steel mill and have three children, two boys and one girl. The steel mill has always been busy, and the two have little chance of meeting Premier Zhou. It was not until 1968 that Zhou Rongqing took Jin Juqing to visit Premier Zhou, which was also the first time premier Zhou saw his niece and daughter-in-law.
In fact, Zhou Rongqing and his wife were very nervous about this meeting, Zhou Rongqing did not know whether Premier Zhou was satisfied with his performance over the years, and Jin Juqing was also worried that Premier Zhou and his wife would look down on their family lineage. But after meeting, the couple knew that their worries were superfluous.
Uncles and nephews met, and since then the low-key no one knows
As soon as the two couples met, all the worries disappeared. Premier Zhou and his wife were very enthusiastic about them, and this was the first time in decades that the two of them had seen the descendants of their loved ones.
Zhou Rongqing and his wife have been living a low-key life for more than ten years, very simple, do not reveal their identity to outsiders, work hard, Premier Zhou and his wife are very satisfied with their performance, but also happy for them. They had a cordial conversation between them, and Zhou Rongqing and his wife benefited a lot.
During the conversation, Premier Zhou asked about the names of their three children, and felt that it was not good enough, so he personally changed the names of the three children, changing them to Zhou Zhiyong, Zhou Zhihong and Zhou Zhijun.
After this, Zhou Rongqing and his wife continued to work hard as usual, working all their lives in the small factory in Jiaozuo, Henan. Premier Zhou's earnest teaching to them has continued to their children, and the husband and wife attach great importance to the education of their children, teaching them not to take the initiative to mention their identities, but to be ordinary people.
The three children have always obeyed the instructions of their parents and have never mentioned their identities to outsiders.
A few years later, Zhou Rongqing suffered the greatest pain in his life.
In 1975, Zhou Rongqing's mother, Wang Lanfang, died, a strong man who had never been so miserable, and a year later, Premier Zhou had left him forever. The death of these two people caused Zhou Rongqing to fall into great sorrow and did not come out for a long time. While grieving, they kept in mind Premier Zhou's instructions and did not go to Beijing to send him off.
In 1992, Deng Yingchao passed away, and she wrote in her will that she would leave her blue coat to Jin Juqing, who often wore this dress after Jin Juqing to commemorate this great man.
The nine relics in Zhou Rongqing's home are all daily necessities, the most valuable of which is Premier Zhou's badge engraved with "serving the people." In the same year, Zhou Rongqing died of illness, and Jin Juqing had to live alone with her three children from then on.
Jin Juqing and her three children live in a factory-allocated house, and one person raises the children on a meager salary. She never made any demands of the organization, nor did she fight for any special rights for her children. After the eldest son of the family, Zhou Zhiyong, grew up, he also worked in Jiao, changed several jobs on the way, and finally entered the government urban management department and worked for a lifetime.
Zhou Zhiyong once said in an interview that it is enough to do a job and do it well. This is the influence of his parents on him, their parents work in one place all their lives, diligently, and he has to do a good job like his parents. His two siblings also work in ordinary jobs, living simple and fulfilling lives.
On the 44th anniversary of Premier Zhou's death, Zhou Zhijun and his wife rushed from Jiaozuo to Beijing to remember Premier Zhou.
This is the current situation of Zhou Enpu's descendants, so what is the life of Zhou Enshou's descendants?
The children and grandchildren are full of children, and the children of the family are all talented
Premier Zhou's third brother, Zhou Enshou, has grown into an excellent cadre after the baptism of the revolutionary years, and he is lucky compared to his two eldest brothers, he was also caught by Kuomintang agents, but with the help of friends, he escaped until his death in 1985 at the age of 81. Compared with the eldest brother, he does not have to take care of every opportunity every day, and there is a lot less pressure on the work.
After Zhou Enshou and Wang Shiqin got married, they also lived a simple life, and they gave birth to six offspring, three sons, and three daughters. Under the guidance of the husband and wife, all six children became the pillars of the country.
After the founding of New China, Zhou Enshou had a long period of contact with Premier Zhou, and the eldest daughter, Zhou Bingde, often lived with Premier Zhou, and Premier Zhou's living habits and style deeply affected her, and she also supervised herself with such requirements.
One of the biggest requirements of Premier Zhou's family is not to reveal his identity to the outside world, saying his identity will only delay the lives of others, and Zhou Bingde also did the same.
Zhou Bingde
Zhou Bingde went to school in Zhongnanhai, and she never revealed her identity to those around her, which Premier Zhou's descendants have done well. She studied as an ordinary person, and no one knew until she graduated that she was premier Zhou's niece.
After graduation, she went to work for China News Agency, and with her rich knowledge and ability, she gradually went from an ordinary journalist to the vice president of China News Agency. After work, I buy vegetables and live an ordinary life. Zhou Bingde has two sons, and they also live ordinary lives.
The eldest son, Zhou Bingjun, was also influenced by Premier Zhou and his wife when he was young, and he aspired to join the army, and when he became an adult, he became a glorious pilot, and even more became a leader among them, which demonstrated the spiritual outlook of China's pilot team. After becoming a pilot in Guangzhou, he has been settling here and living an ordinary life as well.
Zhou Bingjun
Zhou Enshou's third child, Zhou Bingyi, was deeply influenced by Premier Zhou's thoughts, and when she became an adult, she chose to devote herself to the study of Premier Zhou's thoughts, and her ideological consciousness was very high. With the efforts of her and her colleagues, more and more people have paid attention to Premier Zhou's thoughts, and everyone has a deeper understanding of this great man.
Zhou Bingyi
The fourth child, Zhou Binghua, joined the army like his brother Zhou Bingjun. In the army, he trained hard and never flinched, and his comrades did not know his identity. After retiring from the army, he worked in a down-to-earth position in the library management position according to the arrangements of his superiors.
Zhou Binghua
The fifth child is named Zhou Binghe, who is also a boy. The boy was the smartest of the six children, his talent was excellent, and with continuous efforts, he was successfully admitted to Tsinghua University and was a veritable high-achieving student at that time.
After graduation, he also worked step by step with his own ability to the top level of China Zhiqing Network. The colleagues around him only knew that this was a young man with a very high IQ and ability, but they did not know that he was the nephew of Premier Zhou.
Zhou Binghe
Zhou Enshou's youngest child is called Zhou Bingjian, and she is a girl. She is also the farthest from her hometown among six children, and after graduation, she went to Inner Mongolia to work. There, she quickly overcame her physical discomfort and threw herself into government work for a lifetime, taking root in the land of Inner Mongolia and fighting for this land all her life.
In 1985, Zhou Enshou died, and the most regrettable thing in his life, like his nephew Zhou Rongqing, was that he did not visit Premier Zhou. He had a group of good sons and daughters, each of whom silently dedicated his strength to the motherland, which was enough to make up for his regrets.
Zhou Bingjian
epilogue
Premier Zhou and his two younger brothers, loyal to the revolution all their lives, never flinched in the face of great difficulties, and the second brother Zhou Enpu even sacrificed his life for this. All three brothers are from one family, and they are all good enough to be called "great".
Premier Zhou did not have any offspring in his lifetime, but his brother's descendants gave him some comfort, and he patiently taught these children, and these descendants could also remember the teachings of Premier Zhou and his father, do things in a low-key manner, and continue to pass on their teachings to their descendants. This is the really good home style.
Although these descendants of Premier Zhou are not their own children, they are better than their own children, and everything they have done for the motherland is worthy of our respect and admiration.
