Chapter 25 Sichuan (1964-1975) - Letter from Demi

Wu Yun, my dear comrade in arms: How glad I am to receive your letter!I sat reading your letter under the sunshine in July on the west coast of Africa, but my heart was bathed in a gust of cool wind. How well your letter was written!There were several times when I shed tears.I was thinking, you are still the comrade and comrade-in-arms I am familiar with, you are still the good sister I admire most, you are always so outstanding, beautiful and full of holiness!I impatiently told Lao Ge about this idea, and Lao Ge was even more impatient than me. He wanted me to tell him everything about you in detail, and asked me to find you photos for him. Unfortunately, we took pictures in the Northeast. I have stored that photo at my home in Beijing, and Lao Ge was very disappointed about it.Wu Yun, can you send me a photo?I want you to take a family photo.Of course, I will consider whether to show Lao Ge your photo.I decided it was better not to show it to him. If I showed him, he would make a fuss and shout, I was fooled!If I had known that your classmate was so beautiful, I should have chased her back then!then what do I do?Stay here and marry another chief?I don't want to take that risk! (This is a joke. After living with Lao Ge for a long time, you can't help but learn to joke. He can always infect you like a cold.)

Knowing how you and your family are doing from your letter, I am really happy for your family!What an excellent soldier Lao Guan is!The kids are so promising!How good it is!There is only one thing I don't understand, how did you give birth to such a large group of children?Is this a dark cloud?Is it that little black cloud with a temperament like water, lively and innocent, beautiful and quiet like a princess, who blush when he sees strangers?She was a child herself!God, how did she do all this?Remember the time at Tohoku Pharmaceutical College?Once, the two of us hid under the covers and chatted privately, and we talked about the person in the future with burning faces.You said that you would never marry, if you want to marry, you marry a soldier, and you follow him to travel north and south, throwing guns and jumping horses.You did it.You said that the two of you will stay together until death.You said the two of you, just the two of you, you didn't say anyone else.But now you are followed by a large group of frisky ponies!This makes me dare not even think about it, I really envy you to death!Not only I am envious, even Lao Ge is also envious.Lao Ge said that you are really blessed to have a surname of Guan.He said, Demi, you have to give me a few more. Even if I don’t have the ability of Xiaowu, we have to make another one or two. We can’t be too far behind, right?Lao Ge is really eager to try it!This made me worry all day.I am only thirty-nine years old, and I can still give birth. Lao Ge is still ambitious, and the sword is still there. I am worried that he will make my belly bigger again!I'm exhausted from two kids and I don't want to have any more.

How could Huiyang be like this?How could such a thing happen to him?Did you take sulfa drugs when you were pregnant with him?Or was it stimulated by something?Wu Yun, I really feel sorry for you and this child, really!If the doctors in Shanghai can't come up with a good treatment for Huiyang's disease, you can take your child to Beijing. Now the best doctors in China are gathered in Beijing. I wrote a letter to my colleagues in Beijing, asking them to help You get in touch first.Lao Ge wants me to tell you that we have been revolutionizing for so many years, and we cannot let children suffer anymore.

Salute to the Revolution Comrades: Demi On August 17, 1965, Wuyun, my good sister: Received your letter of October 7th.I just came back from participating in a military foreign affairs activity with Lao Ge in the south.This time I can appreciate the power of Africa.The sun here is hardly the sun, but the furnace!It can directly roast you into Peking duck.Take a look at this photo I sent you that I took in Pointe Noire, and you can see that it makes perfect sense for Africans to have dark skin.Several times I almost passed out on the viewing stand of the military performance. If Lao Ge hadn't whispered to me, thinking about August 1st and Victory in Beijing, I don't think I would be able to return to Brazzaville.

I'm so glad that you and our monitor are working in the same unit again. What a piece of news this is to me!You are so enviable!Why always you two and not me?I don't know whether to be happy or sad because the two of you have never cared about me.Lao Ge laughed at me, saying that I was a wild goose flying alone, and I couldn't keep it by his side, and I would return to the flock one day, which made him lose his wife and lose his army.I was really moved by his joke.Wu Yun, tell me, is it possible for the three of us to get together again?I really look forward to this day!Did you say there will be such a day?

After seeing the photos you sent, I didn't expect you to change so much.You are tired from the picture, you are not smiling.Where's your smile?You were the one who laughed the most in the past!Even now when I close my eyes, I can hear your moving laughter.Is your work so tiring?You can tell from the photos that you have a very happy home.Lao Guan looks majestic and majestic, taller than I imagined. Lao Ge looked at the photo and said, no wonder he can get Wu Yun, and I have to admire the self-confidence in this guy's bones.That tall and beautiful boy must be Lu Yang, my God, he is a head taller than you, Wu Yun, where did you get such a big son?The child next to Lu Yang is probably Hui Yang, right?And the one who looks like a handsome girl, I think he is Jingyang, this child has an artistic temperament, do you want him to be a musician or a poet?I like both, but I prefer poets.Remember Mayakovsky's "Poem and Bomb"?Poetry is bombs and flags / Can evoke a class.How well written!I think we have decided to make Jingyang a revolutionary poet.It would be strange if it wasn't for Xiangyang who is standing next to you!There's nothing like you two in this kid, at least I can't see it.There is something heart-thumping in his small eyes, I think it is a kind of wisdom, but isn't he only five years old?I'm not sure about this, and I'm a little confused.Xiangyue is the most beautiful little girl I have ever seen, she looks like you, her facial features and eyes are all very similar!It's such a beautiful picture of her snuggled up in your arms.Ha, this time I know what you looked like when you were young!

There's one thing I have to tell you quickly, or I'll forget it later.My colleague in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wrote back to me. He has already contacted a good doctor for Huiyang in the Beijing Mental Hospital. This doctor returned from studying in Germany and is very famous. He is currently treating the children of several central leaders. For treatment, he promised to see Huiyang's illness.You should contact my colleague first, and then bring Huiyang to Beijing as soon as possible.My colleague is Zhou Lei, and his mailing address is the Bureau of Experts of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.Remember, write to him immediately, immediately!

While writing this letter to you, I also wrote a letter to the monitor, and I asked her to take good care of you.Don't look at you as the mother of five children and the leader of our squad leader, but I know you, you need someone to take care of you when it's critical.Don't be unhappy when I say that, I don't want to cover up your shortcomings, I just said that, who told you that you are my sister! Salute to the revolution Demi On October 15, 1965, the dark clouds, my comrades-in-arms who I miss day and night: I accompanied Lao Ge to Cairo.Send you a picture of the two of us in front of the pyramid as a souvenir.Lao Ge almost had an accident in Egypt this time. The car he was riding in overturned into a ravine on the side of the road. The driver died on the spot. front teeth.I almost fainted after knowing this incident, and my heart is still pounding when I think of it.Lao Ge also joked that the driver wanted to race against the donkey on the side of the road, but he ran a little too fast.That's the way he is, and he doesn't learn a lesson.I'm not in the mood to joke with him like this, I'm almost scared to death!

Zhou Lei sent a letter saying that he had received your letter.You should hurry up and arrange the work at hand, and take Huiyang to Beijing for treatment as soon as possible. I haven't received your letter, what are you doing? Lao Ge said that he doesn't want to see you now, and if he wants to see you, he will see you after his teeth are fixed. He won't leave an ugly impression on you.He asked me to tell you that his teeth fell out, not from sugar. (This passage was what he asked me to add when I wrote to you. He is by my side now, walking around like a spy, and he will not leave until I write this.)

Salute to the revolution Demi February 27, 1966 dark clouds: what's the matter with youI have written you four letters, why haven't you answered any of them?The way you look really makes me angry.I don't want to hear you say that you are busy at work, there are too many things at home, and the children are making trouble.Don't tell me these things, I don't like to hear them.I just want you to write me back, even if it is simple.Just write, Demi, I miss you.That's enough for me. Write to me now!Otherwise I would be really angry! Zhou Lei said that you never brought Huiyang to Beijing.You incompetent mother!I'm already getting mad!

Salute to the Revolution Miss you Demi April 7, 1966 dark clouds: No news from you. What's wrong with you?What happened? Demi June 6, 1966 -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
