Speaking of Mr. Ma Sanli, the common people all know that he was a highly respected art master, a people's artist with both moral integrity and art, and was the oldest, the highest generation, the oldest seniority, and the most profound achievement in the cross-talk industry at that time.
Ma Lao not only has a high artistic standard, but also has a long life expectancy, at the age of 89, which is due to the fact that the old man pays great attention to health. At the age of 80, he still insisted on walking 1600 steps in the morning and evening, insisting on rubbing his face, teeth and hair.
Who would have thought that such a very beneficial personal hobby would bring a lot of disasters to Ma Lao.
In 1958, Ma Lao was branded a "rightist" in the "anti-rightist movement" because the indicators increased from the initial 4 to 11, which was too much, so he had to report him to make up the numbers, so that he was wronged and suffered a lot of unfair criticism. In the 19 years that he became a "rightist", he only spoke for 3 years, carried out 11 years of decentralization, and was locked up in a "cowshed" for 5 years to do chores such as briquettes and cleaning. When the old man was in the "cowshed", he still insisted on rubbing his hair and bumping his teeth twice a day for ten minutes each time. Once, when he was stealing his teeth, he was discovered and insisted that he had "gritted his teeth" against the party, and the criticism and struggle immediately escalated. Therefore, the general assembly approved and the small meeting, and he stopped the teeth.
In an ideological report written probably in the early 1980s, Ma Sanli described his true side over the years in great detail: "For twenty years, I have not taken the initiative to speak when I see people, and I have not taken the initiative to shake hands when I see people. Nothing is said and nothing is asked. I always have a sense of inferiority in my heart, and I have always refused to go to the homes of relatives, friends, and peers to chat, nor to participate in anyone's group photos, so as to avoid people looking down on me and discriminating against me. ”
What a poignant description.
What can comfort the elderly is that another twenty years have passed, and the citizens of Tianjin voted to elect 10 local celebrities to erect statues for them on the banks of the Haihe River for posterity to see, and finally, they voted the most for the old man who had spoken to them all his life - Ma Sanli.
