On the evening of June 26, 1959
In the hall of the Shaoshan Guest House, local revolutionary martyrs, old party members, activists of the revolutionary period and relatives of various families of great people gathered together. Suddenly, the great man sitting in the middle of the banquet put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand and asked with a serious face, "Why didn't Bi Zhu come to the scene?" ”

Hearing the great man's tone was a little heavy, it seemed to be angry, and everyone stopped the movement of their hands, looked at each other, and did not dare to respond. At this time, the village cadre said cautiously:
Bizhu is a kulak.
”
Why do great men "get angry"? Who is the "Bizhu" among the great people? What does he have to do with great men?
Before getting into the main topic, new friends can pay attention to it a little bit, not only not miss the wonderful content of the future, but also review the wonderful videos of previous periods.
Three brothers and five brothers Brothers have a deep affection
Mao Bizhu, born in 1895, because he ranked fifth among his peers in the Mao family, so the great people often called him "fifth brother", and he always affectionately called the "third brother" the great man. Because Mao Bizhu was only two years younger than the great man in age, and when he was young, he studied in the same private school, so in addition to the kinship relationship, the two people also played a small friendship.
Mao Bizhu is the third oldest in his family, and he has two elder brothers on it. The eldest brother's name was Mao Yuju, because he was eager to learn since childhood, especially good at poetry, and later opened a private school in his hometown of Shaoshan to teach. When he was young, he also studied in Mao Yuju's private school.
Mao Yuju's eyes were like a torch, and after concluding that the great man must be a malleable talent in the future, he immediately persuaded the great man's father, Mao Shunsheng, to send the great man to his private school to study. Because the economic conditions of the Mao family at that time were far worse than before, Mao Shunsheng planned to let his son inherit his family business from the beginning, and did not intend to let his children go to school.
After Mao Yuju learned about Mao Shunsheng's ideas, he listed the advantages and disadvantages of reading all kinds of books, and firmly said, "Runzhi is more suitable for reading, that is the most suitable place for him." In the end, Mao Shunsheng was impressed by Mao Yuju. After weighing the pros and cons, Mao Shunsheng decided to send the great man to a private school.
But what is surprising is that during the study period of the great man, Mao Yuju did not use the old-fashioned teaching method to educate the great man, but taught according to his aptitude and taught him with all his heart. This also laid a certain foundation for the profound literary attainments of later great men.
It can be said that Mao Yuju was the enlightenment teacher of the great man. Later, whether it was during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression or the Period of Liberation, Mao Yuju has been helping the great man in his hometown to take care of his home and keep in touch with the great man. Therefore, Mao Yuju and his great man are both brothers and mentors, and good friends.
In addition to Mao Bizhu's brother having a lot of friendship with the great man, the fathers of the two of them are also very good. Mao Bizhu's father was Mao Fusheng, and he and the great man's father, Mao Shunsheng, also belonged to the Mao clan as cousins, and the two always played together when they were young, and they also had a very close relationship when they became adults.
Later, in the spring of 1919, the great man's mother Wen Shi died of illness, and after the great man handled his mother's funeral, he took his father Mao Shunsheng to live in Changsha. However, the great man was afraid that his father was alone, and knew that his uncle Mao Fusheng was his father's confidant and friend, so he specially took him to Changsha to accompany his father. I have to say that the brotherhood between the great man and Mao Bizhu is indeed inherited from the friendship of the previous generation.
Difficult Revolutionary Road Brothers are hard to see each other
In June 1920, after the great man met with Chen Duxiu, his Marxist belief in his heart became more and more firm. In November of that year, after the great man returned to Hunan, the first thing he did was to actively create a communist organization, and Mao Bizhu in his hometown of Shaoshan was very excited when he heard the news.
Immediately, Mao Bizhu followed the local personnel of the party to Changsha, followed the footsteps of the third brother, and participated in the revolution.
After Mao Bizhu arrived in Changsha, he did not directly communicate with the great man, but obeyed the instructions of his superiors and assisted Mao Zeqin in completing a secret mission to Mao Zeqin," who was then engaged in underground work, which was the first revolutionary task of Mao Bizhu's "history."
At first, Mao Bizhu was a little frightened in his heart, but as long as he thought that the third brother was still working hard for the revolution, his dangling heart precipitated. In this way, Mao Bizhu held the firm belief of never accepting defeat and insisted on working in this position for five years.
In February 1925, the great man had not recovered because he had fallen ill during the revolution, and at that time communism was "ostracized" by the Kuomintang, and the great man was on the cusp of the storm and had to return to Shaoshan to recuperate. But the great man did not stop there, and while recuperating from his illness, he mobilized the grass-roots class to carry out the peasant movement in Shaoshan. After Mao Bizhu in Changsha heard that the third brother had returned to Shaoshan, he could not wait to follow the revolutionary pace of the third brother and return to Shaoshan to assist the third brother in carrying out the movement.
In Shaoshan, Mao Bizhu can be said to be the most active revolutionary. Mao Bizhu not only studied and implemented the unwritten theory of the third brother that "walk into the peasants, understand the peasants, and the peasants are the foundation", but also actively mobilized the students, teachers, and migrant workers around him to encourage the peasant uprising.
This also caused the reaction of the peasant movement in Shaoshan to become more and more repercussive, and the influence became more and more large, even reaching the point of "one hundred responses", and peasant uprisings were also carried out in the surrounding areas of Shaoshan.
As grassroots members of the lowest class, the peasants began to germinate their ideas and gradually matured.
April 12, 1947
The Kuomintang of Chiang Kai-shek's faction could not contain their ambitions, and in cooperation with the Communist Party, suddenly turned their faces and unilaterally tore up the agreement. And launched a coup d'état in Shanghai. Massacres of Communists and revolutionary masses were wanton. Because the Communists at that time, out of trust, did not guard the Kuomintang, the Communists were caught off guard by the sudden attack of the Kuomintang. As a result, most of the Communists were killed by the Kuomintang reactionaries.
While the Communist Party in Shanghai is in dire straits, Changsha is again a "bloody storm." After receiving Chiang Kai-shek's order to "eliminate the Communists," Xu Kexiang, a Kuomintang reactionary officer, led the rebels of the 33rd Regiment of the 35th Army of the Wuhan Nationalist Government to attack and destroy the organizational revolutionary organs and groups established by the CPC, including the "Hunan Federation of Trade Unions" and the "Peasants' Association."
But this did not end, xu Kexiang, after destroying the CCP's organization in Hunan, began to disarm the peasants' armed forces and release all the landlord class personnel with bad character from prison. Finally, the communists and revolutionary masses were concentrated. Because "horse" was the era rhyme of the telegraph at that time, it was also called "Ma-Ri Incident".
As a result of the incident, the Chinese Communist Party lost many of its nucleus of strength, sacrificed most of its elites, and most of the leaders of the peasant movement were imprisoned or summarily executed. This made the great man very sad, and at the same time realized, "
You must have your own armed army, otherwise you can only be slaughtered
”。
The white terror on the side of the great man has not faded, and the situation on Mao Bizhu's side is also very dangerous. As an activist in the movement, Mao Bizhu is undoubtedly also in the ranks of arrests. Out of the consideration of "staying in the green mountains and not being afraid of no firewood", Mao Bizhu was forced to choose to turn himself in.
After the incident, Mao Bizhu chose to return to his hometown of Shaoshan to recuperate and wait and see what happened. But with the passage of time, Mao Bizhu stayed in a remote area far away from the Party Central Committee, picking up a hoe and working on the ground, which made Mao Bizhu's news blocked and gradually lost contact with the CCP organization.
At home, Mao Bizhu's shrewdness and competence were once again highlighted in another area, and he earned a sum of money by virtue of his ingenuity and labor. For long-term planning, Mao Bizhu used this money as an "investment" to buy several acres of land. As a result, Mao Bizhu's family lived a more comfortable life.
Although Mao Bizhu's revolutionary cause was stranded, his communist faith and revolutionary enthusiasm never disappeared. When he saw the Kuomintang break into people's houses without authorization and involuntarily arrest Zhuang Ding to charge the army, he would still rush forward to vigorously oppose it and make his ideas about this phenomenon public, which won the unanimous praise of the villagers.
It can be seen from this that although Mao Bizhu and the great man's revolutionary journey are different. But the same heart, and the firm faith, never lost, perhaps this is also his internal connection with the great man.
Three questions about Bi Zhu The brothers will finally meet
The time goes back to the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, and was promulgated by the Central Committee on May 4, 1946
Directive on Land
After that, the local governments actively implemented the instructions of the Party Central Committee, carried out the work of eliminating the feudal land ownership system, and met the land needs of the vast number of peasants
"The tiller has his land"
Basic task purpose.
And it was in this social revolution that completely eradicated the feudal exploitation system that Mao Bizhu was unsurprisingly classified as a kulak because of the land that Mao Bizhu had "invested" in before. Therefore, after wearing the hat of "kulak", the land "invested" by Mao Bizhu was distributed to the poor.
Later, after the Liberation War, the rural areas were co-operative. In response to the positive call,
Mao Bizhu, who was nearly the age of Hua Jia, signed up to join the local cooperative and used his labor to earn money to support his family.
In 1952, Mao Yuju was invited by the great man to Beijing to reminisce. After arriving in Beijing, Mao Yuju told the great man about the changes in his hometown and the current situation. Suddenly, the great man asked, "How has Bi Zhu been lately?" Mao Yuju bowed his head and sighed, saying, "It's difficult for Bizhu's family!" He is the only laborer in the family, and now he is older, his legs and feet are not good, and his life is more difficult. After listening to Bi Zhu's recent situation, the great man was full of emotions, and the straight way was "the world is impermanent.".
Subsequently, when Mao Yuju set off for Shaoshan, the great man specially told him to give a piece of cloth to Mao Bizhu. Later, the great man specially sent a letter to Mao Bizhu to encourage him to join the rural cooperative and wish him a happy life.
Receiving the letter from the great man, Mao Bizhu was very touched in his heart. When I think of the "third brother" who is the president of the country, he has to take care of every opportunity every day and care about all aspects of the country's major affairs, and even has the heart to care for the "fifth brother" of the rich peasants who are far away in the countryside. This made him feel that the hard work of his own work suddenly became a touch in his heart, and everything was worth it.
On the evening of June 24, 1959
Out of concern for the actual economic situation in his hometown of Shaoshan, after the end of the matter in Changsha, the great man said to the secretary next to him, "Recently, the work has also ended, you arrange it, tomorrow I will go back to Shaoshan to live for a few days, to see how the villagers have been living recently, and to understand the real situation of the local grain problem." Then, go to Lushan for a meeting. ”
Day 2
,
The great man then set off to return to the hometown where he had been born and raised him for 32 years, Shaoshan Chong
and accommodation at a local guest house. When everything was settled, the great man immediately arranged the activities for the next few days. The great man decided to go to the ancestral grave to pay homage to his parents, then go to see the old residence, and then feast on the villagers to eat wine in the evening to understand their recent situation.
After making such arrangements, Mao Jisheng, secretary of the party committee of Shaoshan Commune, rushed to the guest house, and the great man said to Mao Jisheng, "I have been away from my hometown for many years, and this time I am coming back to see the villagers, to see the changes in the family, to understand whether your life is good or not, and by the way, I will invite you to have a meal." I don't think you're in charge of this matter, and I pay for it. ”
Mao Jisheng wanted the state leaders to come and inspect, and if there was a reason for his superiors to invite guests, he had planned to resign, but after seeing the determined look on the face of the great man, he swallowed it back. Subsequently, the great man wrote the invitation list, and Mao Bizhu was among them.
On the 26th, the great man carried out the itinerary according to the itinerary that had been arranged long ago, and the villagers followed closely along the way. The great man has been chatting with the villagers about their daily routines, asking them how their lives are and how their food production is. Then, he went to the local school to understand the school environment and the health status of the children, and he said to the cadres of the Ministry of Education, "The children are our hope and our future, we must teach and raise well, they are the flowers of our motherland!" ”
Swimming is a great man's lifelong favorite. On the afternoon of the same day, the great man took a group of people to the mouth of the Shaoshan Reservoir to swim. The great man has always advocated that swimming can nourish the mind and exercise the body, and his swimming posture in the water has won the praise of the villagers on the shore, so that the chairman without a "leadership frame" has also made everyone happy.
As the great men inspected along the way, the guest house was busy with the evening feast. After receiving the invitation list of great people, they did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately went door to door to inform. When they learned that the "rich peasant" Mao Bizhu was also on the list, the cadres in Shaoshan thought
Mao Bizhu had the identity of a rich peasant, and he was not suitable to appear at this banquet, so he did not inform him.
When the feast began, the great man thought that the whole audience had arrived, and he raised a glass to celebrate with the villagers. After a while, he wanted to see the fifth brother, whom he had not seen for many years, and looked around, but he did not find the figure of Bi Zhu. For the first time, the great man asked, "What about Bi Zhu?" The cadres present did not expect that the great man would ask about Mao Bizhu, and they thought that the great man was just asking by the way, so they prevaricated under the pretext that "Bi Zhu is still on the road."
Who knows, but after a while, the great man asked again, and the cadres were obviously a little caught off guard by the great man's concern for Bi Zhu, and they no longer answered. The great man seemed to know something, and he asked again, and finally the cadres had to say, "Bizhu is a kulak." Thus, the opening scene appears.
After hearing the answer, the great man said with some anger, "Bizhu is my fifth brother, what about him being a rich peasant?" He can hurt me! Subsequently, the great man instructed the people around him to invite Mao Bizhu.
But what the great man did not know was that after his fifth brother Mao Bizhu got the news of the return of the third brother, he immediately got up from home and rushed to the guest house "striding like a fly", but he ate a "closed door soup". Later, when he learned that every family had gone to the guest house for a banquet, but he was not in the invitation line, he was very depressed.
At this time, when Mao Bizhu was more and more aggrieved at home, the village cadres came to his home and told him the truth. When he learned that his third brother had not forgotten himself, his mood suddenly turned cloudy.
Mao Bizhu led his wife and hurried to the guest house again. When he arrived at the guest house, he saw the third brother sitting in the middle of the banquet, the third brother who was thinking of his heart. Mao Bizhu walked through the layers of crowds, walked to the innermost part, and shouted kindly,
"Third brother!"
The great man heard a familiar voice, and he answered, looking at the old man with white hair in front of him, and tears instantly filled his eyes. The great man could not believe that the old man in front of him, with a haggard face and inconvenient legs and feet, was the fifth brother who was two years younger than him. The great man hurriedly pulled Bi Zhu to the side seat and said
"I'm old, I don't recognize it."
The crowd was a little moved to see the picture of the brothers finally meeting.
Subsequently, Mao Bizhu followed the great man, who knew that he had a difficult life recently, so he said to him,
"Fifth brother, to tell the truth, in fact, you rich peasant can or can't draw." You are now older and your body is far less than before, so you don't have to work too hard. However, we must tell the children to listen to the party and the government and work hard
。 ”
This heartfelt sentence made Mao Bizhu feel excited in her heart, and she responded continuously, "Good! Good! Good! The great man also knew that in this land reform, every household had its own difficulties, so he did not ask anything more.
The great man just sighed,
The traces left by feudal society for thousands of years are not so easy to eliminate, and if the peasants want to really stand up, they must rely on their own hands to create opportunities and open up the situation.
In any case, the chairman who thought so much about the people touched and admired the villagers, and to this day, we still miss such a great leader.
