Wu Han and Yuan Zhen took a group photo at the residence of the United Front Work Department of the Central Committee of Lijiazhuang, Hebei Province
In 1930, Yuan Zhen was admitted to Tsinghua University, but when he reached the fourth grade, he contracted lung disease and was forced to suspend school. At this time, Wu Han came to her side. For Yuan Zhen on the sickbed, Wu Han had a deep affection and frankly expressed his admiration. Yuan Zhen did not want to drag down the talented Wu Han, and at first did not accept it. However, Wu Han still kept coming to Yuan Zhen, and insisted on taking care of Yuan Zhen when Yuan Zhen's illness worsened and he could not take care of himself. At the bedside, the two often talked about learning and the current situation, sometimes for several hours. Yuan Zhen received a preliminary Marxist education earlier, coupled with her strong knowledge and strong memory, broad thinking, and fresh opinions in all aspects, especially in the field of history that Wu Han specializes in, Yuan Zhen can often put forward unique insights based on the viewpoint of historical materialism, all of which makes Wu Han very impressed. Once, when discussing an academic issue, Wu Han quoted the view of Hu Shi, whom he admired, but this view was refuted by Yuan Zhen. Yuan Zhen smiled and said, "Why are you always three feet shorter in front of Hu Shi?" Wu Han laughed and said, "Then, I am a shorter man in front of Yuan Zhen!"
Wu Han found a girl who was paralyzed in bed as a lover, and he was anxious to break his mother in his hometown. The mother said to Wu Han in tears: "This girl is dignified and generous, polite, and a good girl, but she is already sick like this, and she can't have children, how can you marry her?" As long as you promise not to marry her, I can sell all the houses and land in my hometown to treat her illness and do my best for you!" Wu Han tearfully said to his mother, "You are completely wrong! We love each other because we are indispensable to each other in this life and this life, I can't live without her, she can't live without me, this kind of feeling of living and dying together, ten thousand taels of gold can not buy! ”
Under the meticulous care of Wu Han, Yuan Zhen's body slowly recovered. In October 1939, Wu Han and Yuan Zhen were married in Kunming. For a long time, Yuan Zhen served as Wu Han's "family academic adviser", assisting Wu Han in writing a number of high-level academic works and carrying out revolutionary activities. Around 1949, the two went to Xibaipo, Hebei Province, to discuss with the leaders of the Communist Party of China the great cause of nation-building.
After the founding of New China, Wu Han participated in the leadership of Beijing Municipality. Once, when several leaders of the Beijing Municipal Military Control Commission were drinking together, Wu Han returned drunk and delayed the next day to agree on an important manuscript with Yuan Zhen. After criticizing Wu Han's misuse of drinking, Yuan Zhen thought that other leading comrades should also pay attention to similar problems. Therefore, she wrote a letter to Nie Rongzhen, director of the Military Control Commission, and put forward suggestions from Wu Han's miscalculation of drinking to other leading comrades not to drink and misbehave. Nie Rongzhen was very happy to read the letter and praised Wu Han for having a good wife.
