Figure Deng Xiaoping
In 1939, Deng Xiaoping had divorced his second wife Jin Weiying for 6 years, the War of Resistance Against Japan was carried out to a critical period, Deng Xiaoping shuttled through the rain of bullets and bullets all day, precarious, there was no time to take care of his life's events, friends around him began to worry about him, have introduced objects for him, he is either unwilling, or smile and refuse, until he met a girl - Zhuo Lin.
Zhuo Lin was originally named Pu Qiongying, born in Xuanwei County, Yunnan, from a young age to a wealthy family, his father Pu Zaiting is a famous ham king in Yunnan, once followed Sun Yat-sen to participate in the Northern Expedition, the Pu family in Yunnan is a big feudal family, Pu Qiongyingguang uncles and sisters have thirteen, but in this feudal environment, Pu Qiongying has witnessed the misfortune of these sisters since childhood, some have committed suicide, some have been abused by their stepmothers, and they have been disabled for life, Zhuo Lin and her sisters are determined to change all this.
Pu Qiongying has achieved excellent results since childhood, and his brother met some people of insight when he studied in Japan, and brought some books about communism after returning to China, Zhuo Lin received great inspiration after seeing these books, and planted a red seed in her heart. In 1936, Pu Qiongying graduated from high school and was admitted to the Physics Department of Peking University under the influence of his father's industrial and national salvation ideas, and was the first person in Yunnan Province to be admitted to Peking University. After the "July 7" incident, the Japanese army invaded China in an all-round way, and Pu Qiongying left Beijing to disguise himself with his good friend and traveled a long way to Yan'an, the holy land of revolution at that time.

After arriving in Yan'an, Pu Qiongying was first admitted to Shaanxi Public School, and then joined the Communist Party of China, after graduation, because of his cleverness and demure appearance, he was secretly worked by the leaders behind the enemy lines, so Pu Qiongying was arranged to participate in the training class, during which Pu Qiongying had his new name Zhuo Lin, and met the most important person in his life.
At that time, Zhuo Lin was training in the Ministry of Public Security, because there were many female comrades in the Ministry of Public Security, Deng Xiaoping and a large number of people often came to the Ministry of Public Security to play, one after another, Deng Xiaoping paid attention to this lively and cute, smart and generous young girl, but at this time Deng Xiaoping and Zhuo Lin were not very acquainted, so he found his good friend Deng Fa, Deng Fa saw Deng Fa, first gave Deng Fa a cigarette, smiled and said: "Deng Fa, I ask you one thing", Deng Fa was very confused: "What's the matter, you are so polite", Deng Xiaoping said somewhat shyly at this time: I looked up to a girl in our security department", at this time Deng Fa said in surprise: "Which girl, can make your old iron tree blossom" "It's Zhuo Lin, you give me and say peace", Deng Fa patted his chest to ensure that "no problem, wrapped around me"

After Deng Fa made a guarantee, he did not go directly to Zhuo Lin, but used roundabout tactics to find Zhuo Lin's good friend, because Deng Fa had been fighting for many years and did not understand the girl's mind, when he saw Zhuo Lin's girlfriend, he directly said: "You tell Zhuo Lin, the political commissar of the 129th Army, Deng Xiaoping, has a crush on Zhuo Lin, you are in the middle of the reconciliation, he has become two, indispensable to your benefits."

Zhuo Lin's friends knew that this matter was very unreliable as soon as they heard this, Commissar Deng was in his thirties, and Zhuo Lin was only twenty-two years old, and the difference between the two was more than ten years old, although he was muttering in his heart, Zhuo Lin's friend still looked at Commissar Deng's face and relayed this matter to Zhuo Lin, Zhuo Lin heard that Deng Xiaoping was going to marry him, and sure enough, as his friend expected, he immediately objected, saying: "I don't know if he is a knowledge cadre, or a workers' and peasants' Red Army, I heard that he is in his thirties, I don't want to marry him." It turned out that Zhuo Lin said to her friend: "I don't look for workers and peasant cadres when I get married, two people are together, there is no common topic, I want to find intellectuals" The reason why Zhuo Lin had this idea was because at that time there was a joke circulating among the students, an intellectual young woman and a worker and peasant cadre had just married, two couples were walking by the river in the evening, while admiring the moon, the female college student saw the moon and snuggled up to her husband's body, saying: "You see the moon, how beautiful, like a jade plate" The man said: Isn't it just a moon, something rare, you can see it every day." The workers and peasant cadres did not understand the customs, and it was inevitable that there would be some inappropriateness after living with intellectuals, so Zhuo Lin rejected Deng Xiaoping's pursuit without thinking about it.

When Deng Xiaoping knew that he had been rejected by Zhuo Lin, Deng Xiaoping, who was still quite confident, was very shocked in his heart, and at night he lay on the bed and turned over, thinking about countermeasures, thinking about it, Deng Xiaoping had to take out his political commissar's ability to be the head of the family, talk to Zhuo Lin, he found his good friend Deng Fa this time, let him go to Zhuo Lin, asked her if she could talk in person, when Deng Fa saw Zhuo Lin tell her what Deng Xiaoping meant, Zhuo Lin was stunned, bowed his head and thought for a while, and agreed to this matter.

On this day, Zhuo Lin came to the agreed place, the two began to meet formally, at this time Deng Xiaoping had been waiting here for a long time, seeing Zhuo Lin, Deng Xiaoping was somewhat nervous in his heart, Deng Xiaoping did not directly ask Zhuo Lin the reason for rejecting him last time, but first told the interesting story of his work in France, which made Zhuo Lin laugh. Then he began to talk about his two wives, the first being Zhang Xiyuan, a classmate of Deng Xiaoping's at Sun Yat-sen University, who died in childbirth. The second wife, Jin Weiying, suffered wrong criticism because of Deng Xiaoping's time in the Soviet Union, and Jin Weiying could not withstand the huge pressure, so the two divorced and finally died in the Soviet Union. Zhuo Lin listened quietly, gradually feeling sympathy for the man's ups and downs of love in front of her, and at the same time being impressed by his perseverance. At this time, Zhuo Lin's heart had been shaken.
Soon, Deng Xiaoping also learned from other boys, about ZhuoLin to go for a walk by the river, the two of them chatted as they walked, and gradually Zhuo Lin was attracted by Deng Xiaoping's foresight and profound knowledge.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="86" > wedding fun</h1>
One day in September 1939, Yan'an had entered the evening, and people were about to finish their day's work, but at this time Chairman Mao's cave kiln was very lively, because a simple and grand wedding was about to be held here, and today there were two couples, namely Deng Xiaoping and Zhuo Lin, Kong Yuan and Xu Ming, kong Yuan, who served as the director of the General Administration of Customs and the director of the Central Investigation Department after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
At that time, the main leaders of Yan'an all came to congratulate Mao Zedong, Liu Shaoqi, Li Fuchun, his wife Cai Chang, Zhang Wentian, and his wife Liu Ying, except for Zhou Enlai and his wife, who at this time were frightened by Jiang Qing's horse, hit his arm, and was recuperating in the Soviet Union. The head chef of the wedding was Deng Fa, a good friend and matchmaker of Deng Xiaoping, who had been a chef in his early years and cooked delicious meals. But qiao women are difficult to cook without rice, at this time Yan'an is short of materials, lack of clothing and food, there is no good ingredients, even ordinary chicken, duck and fish meat is difficult to come out, the best dish is braised pork stew cabbage, but even the simple ingredients can not resist the enthusiasm of the guests.
In the afternoon, the two couples took a group photo at the instigation of everyone, Zhuo Lin looked a little serious because of the nervousness, and Deng Xiaoping smiled on his face. In this way, the two had no flowers, no wedding dress, not even a decent banquet, and Zhuo Lin wore khaki cloth clothes and Deng Xiaoping entered the palace of marriage. After everyone saw the two newcomers, they all quipped, and Peng Dehuai said directly: "Xiaoping, where did you find a beautiful daughter-in-law, how do you look exactly like you." ”
Although there were not a few decent dishes, there were many happy wines, everyone drank well, and the comrades-in-arms were happy for the two newcomers, who had just experienced the twenty-five thousand mile long march, nine deaths, and were usually busy with the revolutionary cause, and rarely had free time. It is rare that today is the big day of the two couples, and they pour the groom's wine cup after cup.
Everyone had a clear purpose, rushed up, persuaded one by one, and drank the honest man Kong Yuan unconsciously, but Deng Xiaoping always remained sober, and no one would refuse to persuade the wine, but after drinking all night, they were not drunk, and the ladies present praised Commissar Deng for his good drinking, and Deng Xiaoping laughed and said nothing. However, Zhang Wentian, an old friend of Deng Xiaoping, smiled mysteriously: "Come on, I don't know how much Deng Xiaoping drank, it must have been Li Fuchun and Deng Fa who did the tricks." Sure enough, Deng Fa and Li Fuchun deliberately replaced the wine with white water in order not to delay Deng Xiaoping's serious affairs.

Soon after the marriage, the two came to the base area, according to the arrangement, Deng Xiaoping needed to go to the front, and Zhuo Lin was arranged at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, only when Deng Xiaoping came to the headquarters for a meeting, the two could meet in a hurry, and they could not meet for a long time, and Zhuo Lin could not suppress her thoughts about Deng Xiaoping.

Once, Zhuo Lin encountered Deng Xiaoping coming to the headquarters for a meeting, Zhuo Lin quickly stepped forward to grab Deng Xiaoping who was walking in a hurry, Deng Xiaoping looked back doubtfully, "Zhuo Lin, what do you have to do, I am in a hurry to hold a meeting, there is something to come back to say", Zhuo Lin said angrily: "Do you not want this family, you have not heard from me for several days", Deng Xiaoping smiled and said: "Am I not busy, I can't take care of it", Zhuo Lin said: "There is always time to write letters again, you see other couples often write letters, why don't you write to me, In the future, you will always write to me to let me know what you have done recently," Deng Xiaoping said: "There is nothing to write about, every day is work, where there is time to think about anything else." Zhuo Lin said with some anger: "Just write about the interesting things that happened on the battlefield, write about your daily life." Deng Xiaoping said without changing his face: "This is easy to do, I will write a letter back and let the secretary print thirty copies, one a day." Zhuo Lin said somewhat angrily: "Forget it, you don't need to write it, writing it is also fooling me." After a long time together, Zhuo Lin learned that although her husband was not romantic, he had a responsible heart.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Deng Xiaoping was elected as a member of the Standing Committee and secretary of the Secretariat of the Central Committee at the Eighth National Congress, and after entering the Central Committee, Deng Xiaoping's life was even busier, and there was no time to take care of the family, at this time they already had five children, Deng Xiaoping's stepmother also came to Beijing, Zhuo Lin had to go to school during the day, and came back at night to take care of the family, at the same time, because New China had just been founded, the political situation was still unstable, and some agents were still active frequently, in order to protect the family members of the leaders. Some ladies need guards to commute to work. Deng Xiaoping looked at his busy wife and said, "Don't go out to work in the future, now it's different from before, you take good care of the children at home." After Zhuo Lin heard this, she seriously thought about it for a while and agreed.
In this way, Zhuo Lin became Deng Xiaoping's inner helper, at home there is nothing to do to help Deng Xiaoping sort out various documents, the work of sorting out documents is not simple, Deng Xiaoping as the leader of the central government, every day to review a large number of documents, the documents seen must be specially responsible, Zhuo Lin simply found a room for Deng Xiaoping at home, the documents he has read one by one, sorted out the documents he has read, every half month or a month, there will be someone responsible for sending these documents from Deng Xiaoping's home to the Central Confidential Office. Today, the documents that Zhuo Lin helped Deng Xiaoping sort out can still be seen in the relevant departments.
Although Zhuo Lin sorted out documents for Deng Xiaoping all day, Zhuo Lin never participated in politics, except for some celebrations of the party and the state or the reception of foreign guests, Zhuo Lin would only attend the appearance of the leader's wife, and mrs. Deng Xiaoping could not be seen at all in various social occasions

Once, Zhu Lin, the wife of Zhuo Lin's good friend Huang Zhen, a well-known diplomat, came to visit her at home and saw that Zhuo Lin had been staying at home and had not gone out to work, so he persuaded Zhuo Lin to go out to work, but Zhuo Lin said: "My main task now is to take good care of my children, take good care of this family, let Xiao Ping not be distracted, and work well. In this way, a group of people for more than ten years, everyone jokingly said: "Secretary Deng, there are two secretaries, one at home, one in the office." ”
In 1961, Chairman Mao proposed that "without investigation, there is no right to speak", and a wind of investigation and research blew up within the party, and Zhuo Lin accompanied Deng Xiaoping and Peng Zhen to the Daxing district of Beijing to conduct investigation and research.
When a group of people took the train to the Shunyi Niulanshan Railway Station, Deng Xiaoping, in order to prevent some local officials from cheating, first arranged for Zhuo Lin to live in an ordinary local peasant's home to help him understand the real production and living conditions of the local peasants.
However, I heard that the central leaders came to inspect, the people of Shunyi are very enthusiastic, there are several specialties in the Shunyi area, Dongfu rice, Changshan millet, and the golden fin carp of chaobai River, but these ingredients are expensive and difficult for ordinary people to eat. In order to entertain several leaders, the Shunyi government deliberately bought these ingredients at a high price.

After Zhuo Lin accompanied Deng Xiaoping to Shunyi District, she was worried about the people's extravagance and waste, spent money to entertain Deng Xiaoping, and specially came to the kitchen to observe, and sure enough, the chef was preparing to show his skills, kill chickens and fish to entertain the central leaders, Zhuo Lin saw it and hurriedly stopped it, and said to the cooker: "You do this, Comrade Deng Xiaoping will not like it, he likes to eat some brown rice, he does not like big fish and meat, you can simply get a few green vegetables." Hearing this, the chef was a little confused and muttered in a low voice, "These central leaders are really strange, they don't like to eat meat." But he still followed Zhuo Lin's advice and only made brown rice and a few plates of green vegetables. When Deng Xiaoping and his party came to the canteen and saw several plates of green vegetables and brown rice on the table, they were very happy, and several other people had a big appetite, and the rice plate was swept away.

On April 15, Deng Xiaoping summoned the shangyuan brigade, the production team leader of the Qiujiadian brigade, the Beixiaoying brigade, and the branch secretary to hold a forum, at which he asked in response to the question of the public canteen: "Is the public canteen good or not?", but the people below were hindered by Deng Xiaoping being the leader of the central authorities, and did not dare to tell the truth, so they could only squeak and say: "The public canteen is very good, everyone can eat together and enter the communist society in advance." After listening to this, Deng Xiaoping said with some seriousness: "Whether it is good or not, everyone will say it, and everyone will solve the problem." At this time, someone whispered at the bottom: "The public canteen in Shangyuan Village is very good." ”

When this person finished speaking, Zhuo Lin immediately said: "The public canteen in Shangyuan Village is a fake canteen, and the canteen is only in charge of distributing grain, and the villagers take it home and make it themselves." Deng Xiaoping then said: "Regardless of whether it is true or not, everyone will solve problems, and when our central authorities come here, we must solve problems for everyone, and everyone must seek truth from facts and not make false claims." ”
In 1997, Parkinson's late Deng Xiaoping's life was coming to an end, he had a premonition that he was about to die, he left a will to donate his cornea, so that others could see the light again, his body for medical research to promote the further development of medicine, at the same time, also told the family to be cremated. On February 20, 1997, the great leader Deng Xiaoping died at the age of 93 at the Beijing 301 Hospital.
After the memorial service for Deng Xiaoping was held at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on February 25, a silver plane flew over Beijing and in the direction of the sea, and Deng Xiaoping's wife Zhuo Lin held Deng Xiaoping's urn in her arms, just like this, all the way, at this time Zhuo Lin was more than eighty years old, and when she was young, due to overwork, she could not stand a long time of running, but she hugged Deng Xiaoping's urn tightly, as if someone wanted to snatch it, and her expression was lonely, and tears fell on the urn drop by drop.
After Deng Xiaoping left, Zhuo Lin often stayed alone in the house, holding Deng Xiaoping's photos, recalling the bits and pieces between the two of them over and over again, and spending the rest of her life in loneliness and thoughts.
