"The night is lonely, drink alone with a thousand words." It is difficult to give up, and the mood of thinking of the country is in the mood. The lights are exhausted, and the lock is full of worries. When writing the manuscript, a familiar song suddenly came from my ear, which was taiwanese singer Tong Ange's "Farewell". Tong Ange used his magnetic, gorgeous, and atmospheric singing voice to sing not only the patriotic feelings of the revolutionary martyrs who were generous and righteous, but also poured out the poignant tenderness of the boys for their beloved wives, which made people soft and heartbroken.
Tong Ange
"Tips" is adapted from the last letter written by revolutionary martyr Lin Juemin to his wife before participating in the Huanghuagang Uprising, "Letter with His Wife".
One
Lin Juemin, zi yi dong, trumpet jitter fly, born in 1887, Fujian Min County (now Fuzhou City), grew up in Fuzhou's famous Sanfang Seven Lanes. When Lin Juemin was young, he passed on to his uncle Lin Xiaoying, a well-known local gentry in Fuzhou, who wrote good poetry and had contacts with Chen Yan, Tai Jingnong, Qian Mu and other scholars in the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty.
Under the influence of his father, Lin Juemin loved to read. However, he did not want to take the imperial examination. In 1900, when the 13-year-old Lin Juemin participated in the local boy examination, he left 7 big characters on the examination paper that read, "Teenagers do not expect ten thousand households", which went away and spread for a while as a strange talk. "The young man does not expect the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households" comes from the poem "Send Zhang Jiazhou" by the Northern Song Dynasty literary hero Su Shi.
Lin Juemin
Since you don't take the imperial examination, let's go to a new-style school. In 1902, at the age of 15, Lin Juemin was admitted to the University of Quanmin. Quanmin University Hall, which is today's most famous Fuzhou No. 1 Middle School, was the first government-run new-style school in Fujian at that time. When Lin Juemin was studying at school, he came into contact with and accepted the ideas of democratic revolution and advocated the doctrine of freedom and equality by reading progressive books and periodicals such as "Su Bao" and "Alarm Clock". He often discussed the current situation with his classmates and believed that "China's non-revolutionary cannot strengthen itself."
Lin Juemin even gave himself the nicknames "Jitter Flying" and "Extraterrestrial Birth", hoping to spread his wings and fly high and soar freely.
Two
In 1905, Lin Juemin ushered in the first of the four great joys of his life, "Cave House Flower Candle Night". He married Chen Yiying, the daughter of chen Yuankai, a friend of his father Lin Xiaoying. That year, Lin Juemin was 18 years old, and his wife Chen Yiying was 14 years old.
Chen Yiying
After Lin Juemin got married, he devoted himself to reforming education. He and several classmates set up a girls' school and mobilized more than 10 relatives and friends, including his wife Chen Yiying and cousin Lin Mengyu, to study at the girls' school. Not only that, Lin Juemin and his classmates also set up a newspaper reading office in the city, providing citizens with progressive newspapers and periodicals such as "Minbao", "Su Bao", "Zhejiang Chao", "China Women's Daily", and progressive books such as "Revolutionary Army" and "Turning Back" to publicize the idea of democratic revolution.
At the beginning of the 20th century, many people with lofty ideals traveled east to Japan to study. Affected by this trend, Lin Juemin bid farewell to his wife in 1907 and went to Japan to study at his own expense. In Japan, Hayashi entered Keio University to study philosophy and learn both English and German. While in Japan, Lin Juemin joined the Chinese League.

At the end of 1910, the Chinese League prepared to launch a second armed uprising in Guangzhou. Lin Juemin heard the news and rushed back to China to participate in the uprising. Late on the night of April 24, before the uprising, Lin Juemin knew that this act was more vicious and less auspicious, and there was a great possibility of sacrificing for the revolution, and he thought of his father Lin Xiaoying, who raised him, his pregnant wife Chen Yiying, and his youngest son Lin Yixin. He got up dressed and wrote on two handkerchiefs the "Book of the Father" to his father and the "Letter to His Wife" to his wife.
The Book of the Father is written relatively briefly, writing: "Filial piety is felt by the people: the father is a master, the son dies, but the tired adult suffers, and the younger sister lacks food, clothing, and ears." However, it is a great complement to the compatriots in the whole country. The Great Sin Begs forgiveness. ”
The "Letter with Wife" is written in a long way, with a full text of more than 1200 words. Lin Juemin expressed his deep affection for his beloved wife and his deep love for the motherland. He comforted his wife not to be sad because of his own sacrifice: "Ru Ti my heart, in addition to crying, also thinks of the people of the world, and when I am happy to sacrifice my body and the welfare of the Body of Ru, I will seek eternal happiness for the people of the world." ”
"Letter with Wife"
At 5:30 p.m. on April 27, Lin Juemin and more than 120 other people, led by Huang Xing, wrapped in white scarves and armed with guns and bombs, rushed to the Liangguang Governor's Office. Zhang Mingqi, the governor of Liangguang and the general of Guangzhou, heard the news and fled. After Huang Xing and the others set fire to the Liangguang Governor's Office, they encountered the pro-army brigade of Li Zhun, the admiral of the Admiralty. In the fierce battle, Lin Juemin was wounded and captured.

Zhang Mingqi, Li Zhun and others interrogated Lin Juemin.
Lin Juemin was not afraid, talked freely, and passionately declared: "As long as the tyranny is abolished and a republic is established, and the country can be security and strong, then death will also be blind." Li Zhun was infected by Lin Juemin and deliberately left his life for the Qing court. However, Zhang Mingqi felt that Lin Juemin's "face is like jade, his heart is like iron, his heart is bright as snow, he can be called a strange man, if he leaves it to the revolutionaries, it is really a trouble, and he will be killed."
Huanghuagang Uprising
On May 3, 1911, Lin Juemin was shot dead at the Tianzi Wharf in Guangzhou at the age of 24.
After the news of the arrest of Lin Juemin and others came out, Lin Xiaoying, Chen Yiying, and others hurriedly sold their houses and moved to The Morning Title Lane, which is located in the south of Sanfang Seven Lanes. The person who bought the house was a reader named Xie Luan'en. Xie Luan'en has a very famous granddaughter named Xie Wanying, that is, the famous contemporary female writer Bing Xin. Because Lin Juemin and Bingxin both lived in this residence, it hung two signs, namely Lin Juemin's former residence and Bingxin's former residence.
Lin Juemin's former residence
After Chen Yiying moved to The Morning Theme Lane, some revolutionaries quietly sent Lin Juemin's "Book of the Father" and "Letter to Wife" to him. After Chen Yiying read "Letter with His Wife", he was devastated with grief and tears fell like rain, and he had the idea of martyrdom. Lin Xiaoying and his wife were kind and relieved, and let her live strongly for the sake of the young child Lin Yixin and the widow.
On May 19, Chen Yiying gave birth to a son, named Lin Zhongxin. In 1913, Chen Yiying died of depression because he missed her husband too much, at the age of 22.
Time flies, and the years fly by. Today, Lin Juemin's former residence has become a national key cultural relics protection unit. The "Letter with His Wife" left behind was included in the middle school textbooks on both sides of the strait and was known to the students of Guangdong University.
