In 49, a female beggar came to the door of the government and said to the doorman: "I don't beg, I will go to the secretary of the county party committee if I have something." This sentence surprised the doorman. A beggar didn't come to beg, but to see the secretary of the county party committee? What is this? The beggar, who looks tattered, hides a shocking secret. What exactly does she want to do? Why do you have to see the county party secretary? Could it be that she has some important information in her hands that is related to the safety of the country? Or is there some shady conspiracy brewing? What shocking secrets is hidden by this mysterious beggar woman?
1. The beggar appeared at the gate of the government, and the mysterious origin became a mystery
In August 1949, there was silence in the Pingjiang County Government. Just as Qi Shouliang, the secretary of the county party committee, was engrossed in official business, a doorman suddenly walked into the office, breaking the silence. He reported that there was a female beggar outside the government gate who claimed that she was not here to beg, and even asked to see Secretary Qi.
Qi Shouliang was stunned, and his heart was full of doubts. As a veteran Communist Party member, he was extremely sensitive to any suspicious anomalous situation. Why is a beggar woman dressed in rags, with a thin yellow face, not seeking alms, but claiming to have something important to ask for? What is her identity and purpose? Could it be that he fell for the enemy's plot?
After a short period of thought, Qi Shouliang decided to find out. He walked briskly out of the office and followed the doorman's finger to the suspicious beggar woman. I saw that her eyes were attentive, her demeanor was calm and calm, and she was clearly not like an ordinary idle wandering beggar.
"Are you the secretary of the county party committee? The woman asked respectfully, her tone revealing an undisguised deference. Qi Shouliang nodded, and his heart was even more suspicious.
At this moment, the woman took out a white cloth package from her tattered cloth bag and carefully unfolded it. Qi Shouliang only felt that his eyes lit up, and it turned out that there was a whole pound of gold in the cloth bag! How could such a huge wealth come from the hands of a beggar in rags?
"This is the party's activity fund, the state's money, and what you can want. Faced with Qi Shouliang's doubts, the woman explained. The words "party activity funds" in her mouth were like a thunderclap, which exploded in Qi Shou's conscience, making him suddenly realize that the identity of the person in front of him was by no means idle.
Immediately, the woman mentioned that the money was found while sorting out the belongings of her late husband Tu Zhengkun. Tu Zhengkun? This resounding name seems to penetrate the fog and pull Qi Shouliang back to those eventful years. As a heroic old revolutionist, Tu Zhengkun is a model and hero in the eyes of almost every Communist Party member. Now, his widow is here, holding a huge amount of party money, and there must be something else in it.
In this way, a seemingly ordinary beggar woman suddenly brought a mysterious historical fact. Does her origin, and the origin of the party fees in her hands, hide a cruel but admirable revolutionary past? All these mysteries are destined to be uncovered one by one in the future......
Second, the female beggar holding gold is suspicious, and there are hidden dangers on the red background
Qi Shouliang saw his widow Zhu Yinmei take out more than a pound of gold, and suddenly the alarm bell sounded in his heart. The huge amount of gold, coupled with the suspicious identity of Zhu Yinmei's beggar dress, made him have to wonder if there was any conspiracy behind this money.
He asked about the origin of the gold, and Zhu Yinmei confessed that he accidentally found it when sorting out the relics of her husband Tu Zhengkun. Tu Zhengkun, this name made Qi Shouliang feel familiar and unfamiliar. He was a Communist, brave and good at fighting, but unfortunately died during the civil war. Zhu Yinmei is actually the widow of this revolutionary hero?
Zhu Yinmei said that when Tu Zhengkun was serving in the guerrillas, he was always responsible for keeping party funds. Due to the war, he hid his party dues in his private parts, but he did not have time to return them to his superiors. Zhu Yinmei bluntly said that this money was the party's money and should be returned to the organization.
Although Zhu Yinmei's explanation seems reasonable, Qi Shouliang always feels that something is wrong. As a veteran party member, he was wary of any suspicious elements. The current situation is complicated, the enemy is always trying to infiltrate and sabotage, and Zhu Yinmei's appearance is likely to be a trap.
Just when Qi Shouliang was puzzled, Zhu Yinmei suddenly mentioned the heroic deeds of her husband Tu Zhengkun. It turned out that Tu Zhengkun had led guerrilla activities in the Pingjiang area and made no small contributions. He was familiar with the topography and landforms in the Pingjiang area, reconnoitred and reported on the enemy situation many times, and made great contributions to the victory of the Liberation War.
Zhu Yinmei said that when Tu Zhengkun was hiding everywhere, he was accidentally spied on by Kuomintang spies and brutally killed by rogue warlords. Zhu Yinmei and several children were penniless, so they could only hide in Tibet and live by begging. With this party money in her arms, she searched for opportunities for many years, and finally found the organization to hand it in.
Hearing these words, Qi Shouliang felt like drinking a pot of sobering wine. Tu Zhengkun turned out to be a famous hero's son, and Zhu Yinmei's beggar dress was not a lie, but was forced by that era. For a time, he greatly admired the couple's loyalty to the party and their persistent adherence to the revolutionary cause.
Third, the source of gold solves doubts, and the relics are heartwarming
After experiencing many doubts when they met for the first time, Qi Shouliang finally learned the whole truth about the origin of gold from Zhu Yinmei. It turned out that this gold was actually the party fee left by the late hero Tu Zhengkun during his lifetime.
In retrospect, Tu Zhengkun can be described as a tough guy in the revolutionary era. As a hot-blooded young man, he joined the Communist Party at an early age, and was soon reused for his extraordinary courage and wisdom, and was appointed as the leader of the Pingjiang County guerrilla force. In those difficult years, he repeatedly made meritorious contributions to the overthrow of the reactionary regime and the liberation of the masses of the people.
However, fate often taunts heroes. Just when the dawn of victory was approaching, Tu Zhengkun was attacked by the fangs of the Kuomintang spies and martyred heroically. Before he died, he hid the only remaining party fees in his home and told his wife Zhu Yinmei to hand them over to the organization in the future.
Zhu Yinmei was in exile, hiding in Tibet, and after several difficulties and twists and turns, she finally regained a firm foothold in Pingjiang. In order to fulfill her husband's last wish, she decided to visit the secretary of the county party committee and return the party fee to the organization.
However, her image of being impoverished and ragged makes it difficult to associate her with the party's money. Qi Shouliang regarded it as an enemy spy at the beginning, and he was heavily wary of it. It wasn't until Zhu Yinmei told her husband's glorious deeds that he realized that the woman in front of him who was a beggar was actually the widow of a revolutionary martyr.
Zhu Yinmei's plight aroused Qi Shouliang's deep sympathy. In that turbulent era, she and her husband had to hide in Tibet, and their wives were separated, leaving a trail of hardships everywhere. And even in the most difficult time, she still remembered her husband's entrustment, kept the party fee, and did not dare to squander it, until today she was able to fulfill her wish.
For a time, Zhu Yinmei's indomitable revolutionary will stirred up stormy waves in Qi Shou's conscience. This is the creator of the red country! They defended the party's cause with their blood and lives, and Zhu Yinmei was the heroic wife of a revolutionary martyr, who used her life to interpret her fierce loyalty to the party.
Fourth, they went bankrupt to support the revolution, and the warlords suffered a catastrophe
Through Zhu Yinmei's narration, Qi Shouliang finally learned that her husband Tu Zhengkun was not only a brave revolutionary soldier, but also a martyr who could sing and cry.
It turned out that Tu Zhengkun was born in a poor family in the old era. As a young man, he witnessed the brutality of the Kuomintang warlords and the displacement of their people. Therefore, he resolutely joined the Communist Party, threw himself into the torrent of revolution, and was determined to work hard for the people to turn over and be the master.
Soon, Tu Zhengkun made a name for himself in the guerrilla work in the Pingjiang area with his extraordinary courage and resourcefulness, and soon became the leader of the guerrilla team. Under his command, the Pingjiang guerrillas frequently routed the Kuomintang troops, eliminated many reactionary forces, and made outstanding contributions to the liberation movement.
At the same time, Tu Zhengkun's whole family also wholeheartedly supported the revolutionary cause. His wife, Zhu Yinmei, went bankrupt and used almost all her belongings to fund the revolutionary team. The young couple's willingness to sacrifice everything for the sake of revolutionary ideals is admirable.
However, the good times were short-lived. Just when Tu Zhengkun was in Jiangxi and preparing for the final victory stage, an unexpected disaster came ruthlessly.
One day, when Tu Zhengkun and several comrades-in-arms went out on a mission, they were accidentally ambushed by Kuomintang agents. In the rain of bullets, Tu Zhengkun bravely killed the enemy, but finally died heroically because he was outnumbered. At that time, he was only 32 years old and in the prime of life.
This bad news was like thunder, causing an uproar in the Pingjiang area. Zhu Yinmei witnessed the brutal murder of her husband and was devastated. What is even more infuriating is that after Tu Zhengkun's death, the Kuomintang warlords brutally persecuted his family, wife and children, forcing Zhu Yinmei to be alone, and could only hide in Tibet with a few children, living a life of wandering.
In the face of the brutal persecution of the Kuomintang spies, Zhu Yinmei was not discouraged, but strengthened her revolutionary convictions. She followed her husband's will, kept the party dues carefully, and waited for the opportunity to hand over the organization one day. In the long and difficult years of being displaced and sent under the fence, this party fee was her only spiritual sustenance.
Fifth, the gold is returned to the embrace of the organization, and the revolutionary spirit will live forever
After some telling, Zhu Yinmei finally handed over the mysterious party fee to Qi Shouliang. At this moment, this money is a precious revolutionary legacy, carrying the sincere loyalty of Tu Zhengkun and Zhu Yinmei to the party.
Qi Shouliang took the gold with a solemn face. He knows very well that this is not only an ordinary payment, but also a precious legacy cast by the revolutionary martyr Tu Zhengkun with blood. He immediately decided to hand over this party fee to the higher-level leaders in the most solemn way.
As a result, in the auditorium of the Pingjiang County Party Committee, a solemn handover ceremony was held as scheduled. At the scene, bright red brocade hung all over the walls, and a huge portrait of Mao Zedong hung high in the center, revealing a solemn and solemn revolutionary atmosphere.
Present at the ceremony were not only party and government leaders at all levels in Pingjiang County, but also Tu Zhengkun's former comrades-in-arms and Zhu Yinmei's relatives and friends. When Zhu Yinmei walked on stage with the heavy gold, the audience was solemn. For a while, everyone was deeply moved by the scene in front of them.
Subsequently, the secretary of the Pingjiang County Party Committee solemnly took over the gold in Zhu Yinmei's hands on behalf of the party organization. He said that the party will never forget revolutionary martyrs like Tu Zhengkun and will always remember revolutionary aspirants like Zhu Yinmei. The reason why this party fee can be handed over today is really an extraordinary revolutionary legend.
After that, several veteran comrades of the county party committee took the stage to speak one after another, and all of them highly praised Tu Zhengkun's deeds and Zhu Yinmei's revolutionary spirit. Everyone believes that it is precisely because of such generations of revolutionary pioneers who can sing and cry that we have today's brand-new society. The Party will never forget their exploits and contributions.
At the end of the ceremony, Zhu Yinmei was also allowed to speak on the stage. This woman, who has experienced many vicissitudes and has been on the verge of despair several times, has shown admirable revolutionary tenacity. She said that she was able to hand over the party funds to the organization today, which was the biggest wish in her heart. Although her husband Tu Zhengkun has long since passed away, his pure heart for the party and the revolution will always burn in her and future generations.
