Guo Lian sewed a photo of Yang Jingyu into her daughter's cotton jacket and instructed her children to find their father when they grew up. In 1944, Guo Lian was captured by the enemy and tortured, always strong and unyielding, and died of a serious illness shortly after his release from prison.

<h4>Ma Jimin, a descendant of the martyr Yang Jingyu: The bark that grandpa ate in those years became an heirloom</h4>

"Only when the country is strong can there be a home." Years without boundaries, my generation self-reliance" "inherit the legacy of the ancestors, inherit the spirit of the Anti-League", open Ma Jimin's circle of friends, as if a history of the Red Revolution. Zhao Yiman, Jin Boyang... But he mentioned the most is the anti-Japanese hero Yang Jingyu, and the words reveal the cordiality and nostalgia from relatives.

Mention the anti-Japanese hero Yang Jingyu everyone knows, but few people know that his real name is actually Ma Shangde, a native of Qingshan, Henan, and Ma Jimin is his youngest grandson, currently working at Zhengzhou Railway Materials Co., Ltd. As a descendant of the hero, like most ordinary people, he fought in ordinary jobs, but he could always make people feel the red spirit handed down by the martyrs.

"Grandpa is both a pressure and a responsibility for us"

"Heaven and earth are heroic, and the soul of the country is magnificent." Speaking of his grandfather, Ma Jimin's tone is vaguely full of regret that he has "never met" with his relatives, but more is the pride of being able to dedicate himself to the revolution in a critical moment.

Ma Jimin recalled that compared with the joy that most people yearn for, the first time they met was at the Martyrs' Cemetery. At that time, he was still young and did not know much about many things, but he just felt that he was an "anti-Japanese hero". But as he grew older and learned more, so did his admiration and longing for his grandfather.

"After more than 7 years of circling the enemy in the ice and snow, after the sacrifice, I found that my stomach was full of dry grass, bark and cotton wool. Compared with countless revolutionary martyrs, our current life is too happy, and there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome. Whenever he remembered his grandfather's deeds, Ma Jimin sighed, revealing admiration between his words, but also mixed with heartache. In his view, on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War, in such a harsh environment, the martyrs could still rely on strong faith to struggle, and the revolutionary spirit was worth inheriting and carrying forward by everyone.

In addition to admiration, Ma Jimin also admitted that having a heroic grandfather is a kind of pressure for them. Because the weight of the name Yang Jingyu is too heavy. As martyrs and descendants, they are destined not to act arbitrarily, such as what others say and do at will, they must have restraint, but more is also a kind of motivation and responsibility, in the daily work should pay more efforts, do the work better, they have the responsibility to carry forward the spirit of the grandfather, publicize well, so that more people can pass it on.

I want to tell my grandfather: I will not forget my original intention and make my own contribution in my post

Ma Jimin told reporters that there is a special heirloom in their family, which is a piece of birch bark brought back by his parents and aunt from the place where his grandfather died in the northeast. Today, the birch bark has been stored in his home for more than 60 years. "Our parents often taught us that our grandfather and the anti-coalition soldiers ate grass root bark and asked us not to forget our roots."

In Ma Jimin's memory, when he was a child, because his father died early, there were more children in the family, and his life was tight. The life of a family of six depends on her father's pension of tens of yuan per month, and her mother has no formal job, but the sentence she says the most is "you can't add trouble to the organization, let alone ask the organization for special care." When the children feel that life is bitter, the mother will carefully take out the birch bark, put it in her mouth and chew it, telling them that compared with the life that grandpa experienced, they are much sweeter than the original, and they must learn to be content.

"The family style of our family is nine words: strict requirements, heavy responsibility, and understanding and contentment." Ma Jimin said that if Grandpa could hear what he said, he wanted to tell Grandpa: Once they sacrificed for the nation, but now the country is rich and strong, and now the people, including the descendants of martyrs, have lived a happy life under the leadership of the party. I will not forget my original intention in my own position and do my best to make my own contribution.

He had never met his grandfather, but the spirit of his grandfather flowed with his genes in the blood of Ma Jimin's brothers and sisters. Ma Jimin is a descendant of the martyrs, but also an ordinary employee of Zhengzhou Railway Materials Co., Ltd., in his eyes, today's happy life is the blood and life of countless revolutionary martyrs in exchange, and it is more necessary for future generations to cherish and struggle.

"I hope that everyone can study more about the history of the party, and every heroic martyr and every story is an integral part of the history of the struggle of the Communist Party of China, and it is worth each of us to study repeatedly." In Ma Jimin's view, the revolutionary martyrs of the past were not afraid of sacrifice under an incomparably harsh environment, and all relied on firm revolutionary convictions, which are still inspiring for people today. For example, he said, today's children want to go to school and go to college, and if they don't have a firm belief, they can't stick to it.

Ma Jimin mentioned that in order to better pass on this spirit, the five names of their brothers and sisters all used the word "inheritance" in their inheritance, that is, to inherit their grandfather's legacy and pass on this red national spirit well.
