Stalin's wife was named Aliluyeva, and the two families were already familiar with each other. In 1918, out of romantic fantasies about the leader, Aliluyeva decided to marry Stalin, the year she was just 17 years old, but Stalin was already 39 years old. This kind of old cow eating tender grass is naturally opposed by the woman's family. But at the same time, Aliluyeva still married Stalin without hesitation.
When they were newly married, the feelings of the two people were like glue. In order to become Stalin's good helper, Aliluyeva worked around the clock to translate telegrams for the organization, and even Lenin praised her work attitude. Later, because she gave birth to a child, she delayed some of the work of the organization, and when the organization wanted to punish her, it was Lenin who came forward to settle all this for her.
After several children were born, Aliluyeva began to focus on her family. At this time, the family's expenditure is increasing, but the life is really poor. According to Soviet sources, Stalin himself was a relatively incorruptible man, his life had always been very simple, and there was nothing valuable in his home. For Aliluyeva at home, the pressure of life is undoubtedly great.
At the same time, Stalin was a workaholic who almost never gave himself a holiday. After Lenin's death, Stalin's work became busier, meeting endlessly all day long. His wife was able to see him only on weekends when comrades came to his house for a party.
Stalin's first disagreement with his wife, Aliluyeva, was their differing parenting philosophies.
Aliluyeva is very strict with children, and if any child's academic performance is not up to standard, she will be severely reprimanded. Although Stalin was a ruthless tyrant, he was very kind to his children, not harsh on them, and especially to his daughters.
To what extent was Stalin's coddled habit of his daughter exaggerated? He often asked his daughter to write down orders for himself, and then he signed words such as "obey", "obey orders", "carry out orders" and so on, and then did them one by one.
The great Soviet Union regarded Stalin as a god and worshipped him, but who dared to give him orders? Stalin still has to do it all? If I hadn't seen these records in the historical records, I would have broken my head and imagined that such a thing would have happened.
Of course, the divergence of parenting philosophy is not the main reason. Because Aliluyeva once had infinite illusions about Stalin, the leader, but the real life of chai rice oil and salt made her have a huge gap. Because Stalin was always busy with work, he naturally could not accompany his wife. When Aliluyeva accused her husband of not caring about the family, Stalin would rudely interrupt her and even scold her. Aliluyeva's personality is also very strong, so she is always sulking. In the days before her death, Aliluyeva was always depressed and often said things like "not a single happy thing" and "everything hates to die".
On November 8, 1932, the family's happiness came to an end. On this evening, Stalin and his comrades-in-arms held a small dinner. On this very day, Stalin had another fierce quarrel with his wife, and Aliluyeva left the table in a huff. The next morning, the housekeeper found Aliluyeva dead in her bedroom, with a Wald pistol on the floor. When Stalin learned of this, he immediately fell into shock and guilt. For a long time, this matter hung over Stalin's mind and lingered for a long time.
Since Stalin was the leader of the Soviet Union, such a scandal could certainly not be made public. So the official Pravda announced that Aliluyeva had died in appendix surgery. For many years afterward, Stalin missed his deceased wife. In order not to evoke painful memories, he drove away the housekeepers, cooks, servants, and other staff members who had served them, and replaced them with new people.
The combination of the two is obviously a tragedy. The excessive age gap makes the common language of the two people not much; the gap between ideals and reality makes Aliluyeva almost unbearable; and the character of both people who are too strong is undoubtedly the tip of the needle to Mai Mang, making the family contradiction almost impossible to solve. The combination of these conditions led directly to the tragic end of the marriage.
