In 1987, the tide of reform and opening up had been blowing on the land of China for nearly a decade. In this year, an ordinary email made waves in Lu Dingyi's life. Lu Dingyi, once one of the important leaders of the Communist Party of China, his literary work "The Golden Fishhook" has been widely circulated and has educated generations of Chinese students. In the heart of this old revolutionary, there has always been an unhealed wound - the separation from his daughter Lu Yeping. This story stems from that turbulent war years, when everyone in the whole country could not help themselves, and every family could be torn apart.
Lu Dingyi's peaceful life came to an abrupt end after receiving the letter. The letter landed softly on his desk, and the name "Ye Ping" was written on the cover, which was like a key that opened the door to a long-sealed memory.
"How is this possible......" Lu Dingyi muttered to himself, his fingers trembling as he opened the envelope.
In the letter, a young woman who claims to be Yeping's daughter recounts her mother's life. As Lu Ding read it, it seemed that the tragic moment many years ago appeared in front of him - he and his wife Tang Yizhen had to entrust their newborn daughter to others.
In 1934, at the critical juncture of the Red Army's Long March, Lu Dingyi and Tang Yizhen faced the most difficult choice in their lives. In order to ensure the safety of the upcoming mother and child, they decided to temporarily hand over Lu Yeping, who was still in infancy, to a loyal and reliable old Red Army Zhang Dewan.
"Look at her, so small...... Are we really going to do this?" Tang Yizhen had tears in her eyes and her voice choked.
Lu Ding's heart was like a knife, but he could only nod firmly: "This is the only way." Only in this way can we go to the Long March with peace of mind, and when the country is stable in the future, we will come to pick her up again. ”
Zhang Dewan hugged the little Lu Yeping, could only nod silently, and his eyes were full of reluctance and tears.
In the letter, the young woman wrote that Lu Yeping was renamed "Yeping", and in the war and the torrent of the times, he has not been able to find his biological parents. It wasn't until her mother died that she told her about this life.
After reading the letter, Lu Dingyi couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and he immediately arranged to meet the mysterious woman. At the moment of meeting, the two looked at each other and cried, and all the years seemed to freeze in this moment.
"Father......" the woman called softly, her voice trembling and uncertain.
Lu Ding staggered forward and hugged her tightly: "My daughter, you are finally back." ”
In the days that followed, Lu Dingyi tried his best to make up for the lost time with his daughter. Although the years cannot be turned back, the relationship between father and daughter gradually deepens in the subsequent relationship, and they recall the past together and face the future together. Lu Dingyi finally found long-term spiritual solace in his old age, and his life was fulfilled.
The end of the story is not only a warm scene of a family reunion after a long absence, but also a deep reflection on the background of an era. Lu Dingyi's reunion with his daughter is not only a victory of blood, but also tells us that in that turbulent era, everyone was a bearer of sacrifice and dedication. Although their choice is full of pain and helplessness, it is precisely this choice that has led to today's peace and prosperity.
In the long course of history, the fate of an individual is always closely linked to the times. Lu Dingyi's story not only makes us feel the deep affection and responsibility of a father, but also makes us deeply understand that every choice in history is not easy, but every persistence is worthy of respect and remembering. By looking back on these historical episodes, we can better cherish our present lives and move more firmly into the future.
