"Where the sunset sails are, the end of the world looks at the broken intestines", parting, always sad, sending a husband who has become a prisoner of the order, to the distant place where life and death are uncertain, it is even more sad.
In May 1938, Sheng Shicai's sister Sheng Shitong bid farewell to her "dragging" husband Yu Xiusong to Moscow for trial.
The moment her husband boarded the plane, Sheng Shitong's eyes were black and he fainted, and what she did not expect was that this separation was to say goodbye forever.
Sheng Shitong, whose ancestral home was in Shandong, in his grandfather Sheng Fuxin's generation, the Yellow River was diverted, diagonally across the Lubei Plain, floods, droughts, alkalis, sand frequently, causing great trouble to the local people, in order to change the living environment, Sheng Fuxin dragged his family with his mouth, together with other Sheng clan people, together with the Guandong, to make a living in agriculture.
Sheng Shitong's father, Sheng Zhenjia, who had read private school in his childhood, had ink in his stomach, and was very concerned about education, so he was selected as the trustee of a primary school, and his wife An Jingfenggeng read heirloom, giving birth to 5 sons and 2 daughters, a family of 9, and enjoyed harmony.
Among the 7 children of the Sheng couple, the oldest is Sheng Shicai, the youngest is Sheng Shitong, the youngest daughter of the family, Sheng Shitong is the warm heart of the father's mother, since childhood, thousands of pets in a lifetime, several brothers and sisters, but also pampered her to the extreme.
In a warm and harmonious family, Sheng Shitong spent a carefree childhood.
However, the outbreak of the September 18 Incident broke the peaceful and stable life of the same family in the prosperous world, and also made the ignorant girl Sheng Shitong really grow up.
In 1933, the 20-year-old Sheng Shitong entered the Shenyang First Girls' High School to study, when the Kwantung Army had already invaded the three eastern provinces, in order to consolidate its rule, the implementation of high-pressure policies, searches, arrests and even shootings, almost every day, which made Sheng Shitong's soul suffer a great blow and become trembling.
In the second half of this year, another news came, saying that her eldest brother Sheng Shicai had become the governor of Xinjiang and had decided to resist Japan in the United Russia, so the Japanese gendarmes began to search for Sheng Shicai's family in the northeast, which put great pressure on the Sheng family.
In October 1934, the Sheng family was more and more uneasy, afraid that disaster would fall from heaven, so they decided to flee, left the northeast, and successively traveled to Shenyang and Beiping, after thousands of hardships, until May 1935, they arrived in Xinjiang.
When it comes to Sheng Shicai's side, the Sheng family can be considered at ease.
At that time, Sheng Shicai was already covering the sky with one hand in Xinjiang, and for his family, he naturally arranged it properly, he gave the second brother an official, the other 3 younger brothers were sent to the officers, and the younger sister Sheng Shitong let her continue to study.
Soon after arriving in Xinjiang, the eldest brother Sheng Shicai found a tutor for his daughter and Sheng Shitong, named Yu Xiusong.
Yu Xiusong, a native of Zhuji, Zhejiang, graduated from the Zhejiang Provincial First Normal School, participated in the May Fourth Movement, came to Beijing in 1920 in search of truth, was one of the earliest party members of the organization, and in 1922, went to the Soviet Union to study, and personally met lenin, the revolutionary mentor.
In 1925, Yu Xiusong went to the Soviet Union again to study, and around 1933, Yu Xiusong and others accepted the Soviet Union's arrangement to go to the Far East to work in Boli, and in June 1935, they were sent by the organization to enter Xinjiang.
After arriving in Xinjiang, Yu Xiusong served as the secretary general of the Xinjiang Provincial Anti-Imperialist Federation and the president of the Xinjiang Academy, and did his work in an orderly manner, which was deeply appreciated by Sheng Shicai, which made Yu Xiusong his daughter and Sheng Shitong's tutor.
When he was a teacher of Sheng Shitong, Yu Xiusong was 36 years old, but he was still alone, because as early as when he left home, Yu Xiusong had an agreement with his father, and if he could not find a like-minded new woman, he would not marry!
Tutoring Sheng Shicai's sister and daughter? If it weren't for the purpose of uniting Sheng Shicai, I think Yu Xiusong would definitely not be willing, after all, he was a revolutionary and had a lot of things to do.
However, in the process of contacting Sheng Shitong, Yu Xiusong gradually found that Sheng Shitong was an open-minded and patriotic new woman, coupled with a good face and a cheerful personality, which made Yu Xiusong gradually like this bright girl.
In addition to teaching Sheng Shi tong language and arithmetic, Yu Xiusong will also tell them revolutionary principles, once, Yu Xiusong joked with Sheng Shi Tong's name, saying that her name has a deep meaning, and the era of Sheng Shi Datong will definitely come.
Because Yu Xiusong is a southerner, Sheng Shi is also a northerner, afraid that he will not express it clearly, Yu Xiusong also specially wrote the four words of Sheng Shi Datong on paper.
As the contact increased, Yu Xiusong could no longer suppress his love for Sheng Shitong, and one day, he secretly sandwiched a photo of himself in Sheng Shitong's textbook and wrote on the back of the photo: "... To my only beloved sister, willing to live with you in sorrow, your pine...".
Seeing Yu Xiusong's courtship letter and the conservative Sheng Shitong, his heart was fluttering and jumping.
In the face of love, age is not a problem, geography is not a distance, although the two people are one south and one north, even in language communication, often need to be compared with their hands, but in this way, the two are in love.
Yu Xiusong is 14 years older than Sheng Shitong, this love affair, naturally opposed by the family, the old mother is afraid that her daughter will be wronged by marrying Yu Xiusong, and Sheng Shicai feels that there is a huge gap in age and status.
In order to be "worthy" of Sheng Shitong, Yu Xiusong practiced Northeast Chinese hard, first of all to ensure that he could communicate with Sheng Shitong without hindrance, and Sheng Shitong was also actively doing family work.
Soon, Yu Xiusong's love affair with Sheng Shitong reached the ears of Abulesov, the Consul General of the Soviet Union in Dihua, and in order to promote this marriage, Abresov personally went to Talk to Sheng Shicai, but Sheng Shicai refused.
But Abresov did not die, and after a while, he went to find Sheng Shicai.
Sheng Shi was a warlord, he considered more pros and cons, in order to make friends with the Soviet Union, he finally agreed to marry his sister to Yu Xiusong.
Stalin, who was in the Soviet Union, also attached great importance to the marriage, and even asked the consulate to make a documentary about the wedding.
In July 1936, the wedding of 2 people was held in the Dihua West Park Auditorium, and celebrities from all walks of life in Xinjiang gathered together, which was a sensation.
After marriage, Yu Xiusong and Sheng Shi lived very happily, however, after less than a year of happiness, something went wrong.
In 1937, when Wang Ming and Kang Sheng returned to China from the Soviet Union and passed through Xinjiang, they actually lied to Sheng Shicai that Yu Xiusong was a "drag faction", and at the same time, they made a report to Stalin in the Soviet Union.
The Soviet authorities immediately instructed Sheng Shicai to arrest Yu Xiusong, who was arrested and imprisoned.
Why did Wang Ming frame Yu Xiusong in this way? The reason is simple: Yu Xiusong was one of the first fighters in the party to confront Wang Ming.
As early as when he was studying in the Soviet Union, Wang Ming "specialized" in Marxism-Leninism, hoping to attract the attention of his mentors, and Yu Xiusong was very unaccustomed to Wang Ming's attitude, and once warned Wang Ming in person not to be opportunistic, and the two of them formed a bond.
I have to say that Wang Ming did have two sons, and soon won the favor of the then principal Mifu, for various reasons, Mifu also hoped to form his own forces in the school, so the two of them were in cahoots, making trouble, and Yu Xiusong also became the object that Wang Ming needed to sweep away.
Fortunately, before Wang Ming could do anything, Yu Xiusong graduated and entered the Lenin Academy to study, but Wang Ming always hated Yu Xiusong.
After Yu Xiusong was arrested, Sheng Shitong went to the eldest brother Sheng Shicai countless times to intercede, but at that time, Sheng Shicai, who was bent on holding the thighs of the Soviet Union, was willing to sabotage the "overall situation" because of a brother-in-law?
Soon, Yu Xiusong was going to be sent to the Soviet Union, on the way to the airport, Sheng Shitong always accompanied him, walked all the way, Sheng Shitong cried all the way, when Yu Xiusong was taken on the plane, the sad Sheng Shitong fainted.
Because of this, Sheng Shitong hated his eldest brother Sheng Shicai, and cried and made trouble in front of Sheng Shicai, and even for this reason, Sheng Shitong followed his mother's surname and renamed himself An Zhijie, which means to be ambitious and clean.
Since Yu Xiusong was taken away, An Zhijie has been waiting bitterly, and countless tears have flowed.
In 1942, at this time, the Soviet Union was defeated and retreated in the Soviet-German War, and Sheng Shicai saw the situation, turned to Chiang Kai-shek's thigh, and sent his fifth brother Sheng Shiji to Chongqing for a meeting.
When he learned that An Zhijie was single, Chiang Kai-shek and Song Meiling showed great enthusiasm, and the banquet was warm and warm, which made An Zhijie flattered.
Afterwards, An Zhijie learned that Song Meiling wanted to promise herself to others and threatened to participate in the banquet of the air force major general, An Zhijie chose at will!
But at this time, An Zhijie, in his heart, except for Yu Xiusong, where can he tolerate others? She sent someone to tell Chiang Kai-shek and his wife that they were married wives and that their old mother was seriously ill and had to go home to take care of them, and soon left Chongqing.
Soon, the time came to 1946, at this time, the War of Resistance Against Japan had been victorious, An Zhijie packed up her clothes, and accidentally found a letter from her husband in 1937, during the war of aggression against China, but did not send it out, which was very happy.
With the address on the letter, he found his in-laws and stayed with Yu Xiusong's parents to do filial piety.
In 1948, with the victory of the Liberation War, Chiang Kai-shek regarded Taiwan as a retreat, and Sheng Shicai took his family to Taiwan, An Zhijie did not leave, but stayed with her in-laws and waited for news from her husband.
After the founding of New China, An Zhijie went to Shanghai to find Yu Xiusong's fourth brother Yu Shouzang, and the two sisters-in-law continued to search for Yu Xiusong's whereabouts.
In 1951, An Zhijie received a reply letter from the Soviet Embassy, in which she gently told An Zhijie that Yu Xiusong had died, and although she had been mentally prepared, she was still like a thunderbolt on a sunny day when she heard the news, and she was still in pain.
From 1936 to 1951, An Zhijie at this time had been waiting for her husband for 15 years, and she did not expect that in the end it would be such a result.
Although she and Yu Xiusong have only lived together for a year, she still knows her husband's disposition, how can he be a "Trotskyist"?
As a result, Yu Xiusong began a long road of redress.
All the efforts made by the daughter-in-law, the father-in-law saw it in his eyes, was moved, and did not want to see An Zhijie live so hard, Yu Xiusong's father said to her:
"You are still young, you should have a home, you have waited for Song'er for more than ten years, you are worthy of him, Zang'er is not yet married, I have obtained his consent, and he is married, we are still a family."
After much deliberation, An Zhijie finally agreed to her father-in-law's suggestion and married Yu Shouzang, Yu Xiusong's fourth brother.
At that time, the country was not calm, various sports emerged in an endless stream, as the sister of Sheng Shicai, An Zhijie's life could not be stable, fortunately, with Yu Shouzang's company, the husband and wife supported each other, through this period of ups and downs, the husband and wife gave birth to 2 sons and 1 daughter.
Yu Xiusong's case involved two countries, and the time was long, and it was impossible to figure it out for a while and a half, and the time dragged on again and again until 1988.
At this time, An Zhijie, who was 75 years old, could not wait any longer, so she decided to ask for help from the organization, and she found Li Xiannian.
Shortly after the investigation of Yu Xiusong's case began, the Soviet Union disintegrated, and the little hope that had just arisen was once again shattered.
Fortunately, neither An Zhijie nor the organization gave up, and finally, on the eve of the National Day in 1996, An Zhijie received a positive answer, and her husband was indeed wronged and completely rehabilitated.
At this time, An Zhijie was 83 years old, because of her husband's affairs, she ran for 58 years, but An Zhijie regretted that because there were many victims at that time, and the bones were buried together, coupled with the age, he could not find the bones of her husband.
After her husband was rehabilitated, An Zhijie also had a heart affair and began to enjoy a peaceful old age.
In 2006, An Zhijie passed away at the age of 103.
