In June 2009, when it was raining heavily, an old man said sadly to the camera: "I can't bear to leave this voice." ”
Behind her, there is a newly built marble tombstone.
The owner of this cemetery is none other than Luo Jing, a famous news anchor who has just died.
Today, in addition to his former colleagues and relatives, hundreds of people spontaneously came to the scene to say a final goodbye to him.
As the mourning progressed, the rain grew heavier.
Through the black pressed umbrella, the raindrops fell on Luo Jing's statue, gathered into the corners of his eyes, and flowed down like tears.
Is there anything he can't rest assured about?
In 1985, Luo Jing entered the glory period of his broadcast career, and together with Zhao Zhongxiang and Song Shixiong, he was called the "Three Giants of the Broadcasting Industry".
Once a person becomes famous, his love life will attract much attention, and Luo Jing is no exception.
As early as when he was in college, Luo Jing's mentor, Professor Li Gang, had been looking for an object to introduce him.
Unexpectedly, this opportunity finally came.
One day, Liu Jihong, who was 5 years younger than Luo Jing, went to Professor Li's house to ask for advice, and happened to meet this famous brother.
The old professor intended to match, so he deliberately asked Luo Jing to point out one or two.
The two young people talked for a long time, and they both had a feeling of seeing each other and hating each other.
Master Li specifically called Liu Jihong to inquire about her impression of Luo Jing, and also sold melons to her like a princess: "Luo Jing is very good, and there is no object..."
In fact, Liu Jihong was a little moved at first glance, but she was also a little worried, "So famous people, will they look at me?" ”
Interestingly, every time Liu Jihong went to Professor Li's house after that, he would "just happen" to meet Luo Jing.
Then, Luo Jing would send her back to the dormitory. He not only often cares about Liu Jihong's studies, but sometimes brings some snacks that girls love to eat.
Under Luo Jing's careful and sincere offensive, Liu Jihong gradually eliminated his concerns and agreed to communicate.
Two years later, they entered the stage of talking about marriage.
Hearing that Liu's father was worried that his daughter would be bullied by the "national face", Luo Jing hurriedly carried the fruit basket to the parents-in-law's house to show his attitude, and finally got recognition.
In 1988, Luo Jing and Liu Jihong held a simple and lively wedding with the blessing of their parents.
The feelings of the two after marriage are also the same as always.
No matter how late Luo Jing came home, as soon as he opened the door, there was always a lamp and a cup of hot tea soaked in the fat sea, waiting for him.
Seven years later, their son was born.
Luo Jing flipped through Tang poems and named him "Shu Tong", hoping that he would become a person of upright and noble character.
As her son grew older and Luo Jing's work pressure increased, Liu Jihong made a major decision.
At that time, CCTV had stipulated that every mistake in a word would be fined 200 yuan, more than three times to go to further study, pass the exam to return to the original post.
Originally, Liu Jihong also worked on CCTV, and her salary was much higher than Luo Jing's, but in order to let Luo Jing have no worries, she resolutely quit her job and willingly started logistics work.
Once, the child was sick and Luo Jing ran to bed after work. Liu Jihong was distressed by Luo Jing, resolutely drove him home to rest, and said angrily: "If you don't go home, I will take my son out of the hospital." ”
Luo Jing understood her thoughtfulness, but his heart was also very unhappy, and he felt that this was very unfair to his wife.
At this time, Liu Jihong said to him in a serious tone: "If we both want to have one that needs to be sacrificed, it must be me." Because you represent the country, everyone needs you. ”
With the full support of Liu Jihong, Luo Jing devoted himself to his career and was named "Best Broadcast Host" for many consecutive years.
Luo Jing is well aware of his achievements and is completely inseparable from his wife's efforts. But he is a wooden character, never saying a romantic word.
I remember that when she first got married, Liu Jihong often complained that her husband did not know how to sweet words, but gradually found that Luo Jing was different.
One day, she and her husband went out to dinner.
During the meal, a friend shared a joke saying, "Holding a wife's hand is like pulling a left hand." ”
The men present all understood, but Luo Jing stubbornly said, "But the left hand can't leave the right hand!" ”
Another time, the two quarreled over a small matter, and Liu Jihong, who was angry, immediately raised his voice by an octave.
Luo Jing, like other men, pursued the principle of "hiding if you can't afford it" and ran to the study to "take refuge".
But when he came out, he found that his wife was sleeping on the sofa.
At that moment, he felt Liu Jihong's grievances, hurriedly woke her up, and agreed on three chapters: quarrels do not stay overnight, ladies are not allowed to sleep on the sofa, and each other cannot escape problems.
The trivialities of life gave Luo Jing a deeper understanding of marriage.
Although he was ashamed to express it, he learned another way of romance.
That year, Liu Jihong fell ill. Luo Jing almost lit the kitchen before he could make a bowl of noodles.
Who knew that Liu Jihong had just taken a bite and then put it down. After Luo Jing tasted it, he found that this bowl of noodles was bitter and salty, and he couldn't swallow it at all. Remembering his wife's usual care, he felt particularly uncomfortable in his heart and made up his mind to learn to cook hard.
Later, Luo Jing learned to fry prawns with roses.
Whenever there is a big festival, he will offer his wife the final dish of "rose shrimp" to make her happy.
Years later, Liu Jihong recalled those little details and could still feel Luo Jing's different sweetness.
However, what no one expected was that such a loving couple was about to face a life-and-death parting.
In 2008, beijing hosted the Olympic Games, and Luo Jing was diagnosed with lymphoma during a physical examination.
The doctor did not dare to inform him directly, but chose to notify his wife Liu Jihong.
She didn't tell Luo Jing right away, but just accompanied him to the treatment.
After a long time, Luo Jing guessed that he was seriously ill.
He said to his wife, "I'm sorry, you've endured too much alone over the years. I haven't taken you to see the sea yet, and my son's parents won't be able to go after the meeting..."
In August of that year, Luo Jing completed his last presidency and began to actively treat diseases.
After a period of treatment, his condition was initially controlled.
At this time, Luo Jing suddenly asked to stop healing, perhaps because he felt something and wanted to do something more meaningful at the end of his life.
Therefore, when others envied him for holding high the torch and running on the track, only Liu Jihong was secretly hiding, collapsing and crying.
Soon after, Luo Jing's condition deteriorated again and he had to undergo chemotherapy.
The intense pain and postoperative reactions tortured Luo Jing to the point where he could not stand alone. His mouth was full of ulcers, and his drinking water hurt so much that his eyebrows were tangled together.
Even so, he tried to write the words "full cooperation" to the doctor. Even if it is uncomfortable, as long as someone consults, he will definitely sit up from the bed and thank him.
However, the sky is not the limit.
Before dying, Luo Jing was most relieved about his wife and children. When I think of my wife's efforts over the years, I feel even more guilty.
He took out his mobile phone and, with the only strength he had, uttered the only confession in his life: "Love you."
On June 5, 2009, after 40 minutes of rescue, he was unable to save his life, and Luo Jing, who was only 48 years old, unfortunately passed away.
At the funeral, Liu Jihong cried several times until she fainted, and she had to rely on her son's support to barely stand.
After the funeral, Liu Jihong thought about it for a long time, or decided to tell her father-in-law about this bad news.
When the old man learned that he had not been able to see his son for the last time, he locked himself in the house and cried.
Since Luo's mother has Alzheimer's disease, the family discussed not telling her the news.
To this day, Mother Luo still does not know that Luo Jing is no longer alive. When she was sober, she clamored for her son, and everyone only told her that Luo Jing had gone abroad and could not return to China.
After Luo Jing's death, Liu Jihong also often took his son to visit Luo Dad and Luo Mama to take care of them.
She single-handedly provoked the whole family and lived for 7 years before gradually accepting the fact that Luo Jing was not there.
Under the persuasion of friends, Liu Jihong took his son and married a wealthy businessman.
However, this move actually attracted the criticism of many netizens, believing that she was "unfaithful" to Luo Jing.
In the face of such a misunderstanding, Liu Jihong did not explain, and her son was also very supportive of her behavior.
After remarrying, the man was very kind to Liu Jihong and his son and lived a very happy life.
And Shu Tong also grew up, went to the United States to study, and found a good job in the local area, very good.
They are all fulfilling Luo Jing's instructions before his death: to live bravely and actively, let me rest assured.
In June 2021, the morning fog cleared and the morning sun gradually covered the Wanfo Overseas Chinese Cemetery in Beijing.
Today, it has been 12 years since Luo Jing's death, but his cemetery has always been spotless, just like the state of the tomb owner before he died.
Luo Jing's statue still looked peacefully into the distance, and a ray of new sun shone on his microphone, as if to say to his relatives:
"I'm relieved."
