Chapter 6 Chapter 6 "Chief Professor"

"I used a buzzword, don't make fun of it." Li Yinqiao picked up a pen and wrote down the words "Chief Professor" smartly. "For those of us guards born from poor families, Mao Zedong is indeed not only our great mentor in revolution, work, and life, but also the 'chief professor' who learns cultural knowledge and masters the ability to serve the people. He is me and The most important teacher in the life of other guards." Li Yinqiao said affectionately, "Mao Zedong himself loved reading and learning all his life, and he also had very strict requirements on the study of the staff around him. I have seen so many famous Chinese and foreign professors, scholars and universities. There is no gentleman of learning who can surpass Mao Zedong in terms of learning, knowledge, and views. Mao Zedong not only writes good articles, but also one of the few poems in contemporary Chinese history, and his calligraphy is even more recognized... Mao Zedong The important reason why he is versatile and knowledgeable is that he loves learning all his life. That is, during the most difficult years when he moved to northern Shaanxi, he was still on horseback, beside the kang, and even under the bombs of the enemy, he was tirelessly reading and studying. On this aspect, it is enough to write a special book for Mao Zedong. What I want to tell you today is that Mao Zedong cared about our guards learning cultural knowledge and teaching our young generation to adapt to the socialist construction of New China. thing."

"It has been forty-five years in a flash. At that time, I was on the way to follow Mao Zedong to fight in northern Shaanxi." Li Yinqiao's calm tone brought us back to the era of war-torn times—— At that time, Hu Zongnan's army lost its initial prestige in attacking the liberated areas after being hit repeatedly by Mao Zedong's "mobile warfare" and "mushroom warfare".One day, Mao Zedong led the column directly under the Central Committee to move to a small village called Shenquanbao.At this time, the situation was gradually favorable to our army. Therefore, the Military Commission decided to take a rest on the spot for a period of time. Taking this opportunity, Mao Zedong went to the liberated areas by the Yellow River to conduct social investigations on rural land reform in order to prepare for the establishment of a new China in the future and carry out the land revolution movement. Accumulate some first-hand materials.

"Yinqiao, you go with me. Remember, besides being a guard this time, you have another task, which is to help me get something out!" Before leaving, Mao Zedong specially took care of this little guard who had just arrived . "Chairman, what are you going to ask me to do?" Li Yinqiao didn't understand. Mao Zedong smiled, and threw a small notebook over: "This is it, write everything you see and hear on it." The little guard, who has experienced many battles, has never been afraid of the enemy's aircraft and artillery, but this small book made him flinch, and he scratched the back of his head embarrassedly: "Chairman, this... I only know a few hundred words, I'm afraid it won't work. "

"Oh, if you know a few hundred characters, you are considered a little scholar!" Mao Zedong joked.Instead, he patted Li Yinqiao on the shoulder and said, "Why do you say we wiped out Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang army?" "In order to liberate the working people in China and build a new China!" The little guard answered fluently. "Yes, there are many problems in building a new China that we have not encountered today. Therefore, we need to hurry up and study hard, otherwise, when the time comes, you will not be able to understand when you go home and drive a tractor." Chairman, what is a slipper machine? At that time, we will even have a slipper machine for our feet?” The little guard thought Mao Zedong’s tractor with a Hunan accent was a “slipper machine”.

Mao Zedong laughed, stretched his legs and said: "That is not a machine called slippers, but a machine for plowing and harvesting!" The little guard widened his surprised eyes excitedly: "Did machines still be used to plow the land and harvest wheat?" "Of course, that's called large-scale machine production. Look, if you don't hurry up and learn now, will you be able to do it by then?" The little guard shyly put away the notebook: "Then I'll try it!" For twelve days in a row, Li Yinqiao followed Mao Zedong to the East Village and to the West Village, watching the leader who came from the people and served the people push the rollers, twist the dung balls, and talk about homework with fellow villagers.As for him, every night before going to bed, he wrote down what he saw and heard during the day in the small notebook Mao Zedong gave him.

The rural survey by the Yellow River was an easy and pleasant new trip for Li Yinqiao. He was still young at that time, but he seemed to see the dawn of a new socialist China: every family had land to grow, food to eat, and A happy life where everyone is equal. "Yinqiao, sort out what you wrote and show me." After the investigation, Mao Zedong said to his guards with great interest. "Chairman, I have already sorted it out. Please give me instructions." Li Yinqiao organized the materials in the small book into three or four pages of "articles", and gave it a name.He has read the articles written by Mao Zedong, and they all have a very bold and beautiful name.He thought, my articles can't be less.

Mao Zedong happily held it in his hand and looked seriously.After reading the name of the title given by the guard, he smiled. "Well—this topic is a bit big, let's call it "Travel Notes", not "Travel Collection". 'Ji' is much bigger than 'Ji'." "Yinqiao, the article is very well written! It is at the level of a scholar!" Mao Zedong praised very much after reading it, "There are a few places that need to be changed, the 'landlord's land and the things he exploited' must be "Land" in "Laidi" should use "de". Farmers say that "land" in the middle of the land reform should use "get". Chinese "de, get, and land" seem to have similar meanings, but It’s different when you use it...” Mao Zedong taught Li Yinqiao to correct the “de, get, and place” in the article one by one, like teaching a child who is just starting school.

Finally, with a swipe of the pen on Wei Shi's crooked "Travel Notes", he commented: "It's very well written and has great promise!" and signed the three big characters "Mao Zedong" seriously. "Yinqiao, send this travel diary you wrote back to your hometown, let your parents have a look, let them know your progress after participating in the revolution, your parents will also be happy, rest assured that you work here." Mao Zedong said to the guards. It was a pleasant surprise!It stands to reason that people who also worked with Mao Zedong could not casually tell their relatives that they were working with Mao Zedong.But Li Yinqiao thought, since Mao Zedong asked to do it, it must be right.Besides, my hometown in Anping, Hebei is already a liberated area.Mao Zedong asked me to send home what I saw and heard about the rural land reform in northern Shaanxi. Apart from reassuring my family, the more important meaning was probably to let the people in my hometown follow the example of the people in the liberated areas in northern Shaanxi.

"Travel Notes" was sent home quickly.His parents were illiterate, so he invited someone who could read from Murakami to read. The family was very happy. Hearing that his son was promising, even Mao Zedong praised him. At that time, people in the Liberated Areas knew their savior Mao Zedong.Li Yinqiao told us regretfully: "Because my parents were illiterate, people in the village spread Mao Zedong's instructions everywhere, but I didn't know where they got them. I have always felt very sorry about this. Because it is not only important to me. A precious material, and more importantly, I felt for the first time that Mao Zedong cared about and encouraged our younger generation to learn cultural knowledge and earnest expectations for the construction of a new socialist China in the future. In the decades of revolutionary work that followed, Zheng It was because of Mao Zedong’s repeated care and encouragement for me to learn culture, knowledge, and understand the principles of revolution that I grew from an ignorant and illiterate child of a poor family to a party cadre.”

"Speaking of Mao Zedong's concern for the study and growth of our guards, it is no exaggeration to say that it is no less than the heart of ordinary parents who hope their children will succeed." Recalling the days with Mao Zedong, Li Yinqiao could not suppress the excitement in his heart, " Conditions were limited during the war years, but Mao Zedong taught the guards and guards around him how to write, and practiced writing articles not once or twice. When the new China was about to be established and after the founding of the new China, there was a relatively stable environment, and Mao Zedong was even more I am concerned about the study of the staff around me. I am willing to tell you about it.

"When I was still in Xibaipo, according to Mao Zedong's instructions, all workers and peasants of the central government must attend cultural schools and cultural cram schools to meet the needs of the construction of New China. This time the government cultural schools and cram schools are running very well. I and the comrades in the security class took turns to take classes in their spare time. I remember that in addition to reading, I also listened to the history class taught by Comrade Guangyuan and the geography class taught by the war department. "One day, Mao Zedong asked me about the situation of spare-time schools and cram schools. After listening to him, he was very happy and said: 'Part-time study is a good way. Many of our revolutionary comrades have never gone to school in the past. After joining the revolutionary team, they are mostly busy fighting. Now the situation is better, but there are naturally many jobs. Using spare time to study can kill two birds with one stone. It does not affect work and can learn cultural knowledge. But this is not enough. Some comrades have to leave their jobs and let them learn some professional knowledge , so that we can progress faster. The comrades around us will learn professional knowledge when they have the opportunity.' "I didn't know what professional knowledge was at that time. Mao Zedong said figuratively: "For example, Lao Zhou, who drives me, he can drive. This is professional knowledge. There are many majors to learn. In the future, you will leave If you leave me and let you become a factory manager, you will have to learn a lot of professional knowledge.'” Not long after Mao Zedong said this, one day, after a walk, he called Yan Changlin, the guard platoon leader, to his side: "You complete a task for me: write me a copy of the names of your guard platoon." Yan Changlin asked: "Write it now?" "Just write." Mao Zedong said.No more, no less, twenty fighters.After Yan Changlin finished writing, Mao Zedong circled fourteen names on the list. "Now the situation is developing rapidly, and the construction of a new China requires a large number of professionals with professional knowledge. The 14 people in my circle will be sent to study first, and after they come back, the remaining six people will be sent out. The remaining We must also study while working," Mao Zedong instructed. When I heard that I went to study, the comrades in the security class were very happy. At that time, everyone knew that the new China was about to be established, and they all wanted to do something about the cause of liberation after the liberation of the whole country.On the day before leaving, Mao Zedong specifically said that he would take a group photo with everyone.After the photo was taken, everyone followed Mao Zedong to his office. On the table were several ink marks written by Mao Zedong for the "People's Daily".Someone suggested: "Chairman, we are leaving you soon, please write us a few words." Mao Zedong immediately agreed: "Yes, go and get your study books!" So, the fourteen comrades quickly returned to their residences and found their most satisfactory notebooks.Mao Zedong wrote the twelve words "study hard now and work hard in the future" on each notebook, and signed his name. At lunch, Mao Zedong specially entertained all the soldiers who were studying in the cafeteria.When parting, there is inevitably a feeling of reluctance.Some of these soldiers followed Mao Zedong during the Long March, and now they are leaving, and they feel very uncomfortable. Listening to the arguments of the soldiers, Mao Zedong slowly put down his job and said: "I understand the feelings of comrades. I also miss you in my heart. Over the years, you have helped me a lot. No matter in peacetime or in wartime, Wherever I go, there is always room to live, to rest, to work, to eat, to drink, and the enemy bullets and shells have not hit me... But I can't keep you by my side and keep watch for a lifetime. Isn’t it burying talents? Isn’t it delaying you? You are only in your twenties, I dare not be! Besides, we are about to build a new China, and we want to build socialism, which is a brand new undertaking. Studying is not enough. After entering the city, if you are asked to manage a city, be a factory manager, or be a county magistrate, can you do it without cultural knowledge?" After listening to Mao Zedong's earnest words, everyone silently nodded in agreement. A group of comrades who got along day and night left, and I felt itchy in my heart.Before I participated in the revolution, I went to elementary school in my hometown for two years. In 1938, when I was eleven years old, I ran out to join the Eighth Route Army. I have studied culture for a period of time, but I still can't recognize a thousand characters together.After serving as a guard for Mao Zedong, I felt deeply that my cultural level was low, and I was eager to learn.But Mao Zedong didn't let me go.Didn't he once tell me to take the time to study?Why didn't you let me go when there was such an opportunity?I've been thinking about this in my mind, but I can't find the answer. In May 1950, I saw in the newspaper that the cultural supplementary school for cadres directly under the Central Government was about to recruit students again, so I immediately mentioned it to Mao Zedong: "Chairman, I want to go to school." "Huh?" Mao Zedong seemed a little surprised, and asked, "Where do you go to school?" "The cram school for the cadres of the central government, they are going to recruit students again." Mao Zedong frowned and walked back and forth in the room, muttering: "We get along very well, you have to go..." He suddenly stopped and stared at me: "Going to school is a good thing, but , do you have to go now?" Although Mao Zedong's expression was very complicated at the time, I didn't understand that the old man was reluctant to let me leave for a while, so as if he was afraid that he would blow it up again this time, he hurriedly said: "I am 23 years old this year. If I don't go, I will leave." There's no chance." "Oh—twenty-three, it's not too young." Mao Zedong started to walk up and down again, and finally he seemed to have made up his mind, and drew his big hand: "Okay, you go!" I have been with Mao Zedong day and night for several years, and in his words, "we get along very well." Now that I really want to leave, I hesitated, so I said: "Chairman, I will go to study, and I will definitely come back after I finish my studies." "Okay, you are welcome back anytime." Mao Zedong suddenly became happy. With both excitement and attachment, I ran home and took out a study exercise book with a black leather cover, and then ran to Mao Zedong to ask him to write an inscription as a souvenir.Mao Zedong picked up the pen, thought for a while, and wrote the following two lines on the title page of the exercise book: Study hard, do work after you have learned well, and serve the people. Mao Zedong July 12, 1950 Probably I am Mao Zedong's bodyguard, and I am also Mao Zedong's most trusted bodyguard, so I have great face. When I heard that I was going to school, several leading cadres of the central government wrote inscriptions for me. Commander-in-Chief Zhu's inscription reads: Improving culture is a prerequisite for learning everything. Zhu De July 13, 1950 Liu Shaoqi's inscription reads: Learn your skills, do a good job, and don't try to make a name for yourself. It has your own benefits. Liu Shaoqi July 25th Zhou Enlai's inscription is the longest: Step up your studies, improve your culture, be neither arrogant nor impetuous, and learn to be a servant of the people. Comrade Li Yinqiao Zhou Enlai 1950.8.12 Later, when Ms. Deng Yingchao found out about it, she also wrote me an inscription: Learn skills and do a good job. Comrade Li Yinqiao Deng Yingchao 1950.10.16 Beijing You must be very amazed!Yes, I was also very excited and excited at the time. I knew that there were two reasons why the central leaders were so enthusiastic about writing an inscription for me: one was that I got along well with them; Their care for our younger generation hopes that we will become a generation of socialist builders with political awareness, scientific and cultural knowledge and professional skills. With the entrustment of the chiefs, I happily went to the cram school.But when I went there, I was dumbfounded: Where is the school!An empty compound, no classrooms, no blackboards.There were old men and young people among the students in the school, and I was very disappointed. In addition, I had followed Mao Zedong for many years, and when I left him, I always felt that something was not at ease, and my heart was always up and down, so I bit the bullet and persisted. After a week, he returned to Zhongnanhai. When Mao Zedong saw me, he was taken aback for a moment, and after asking about the situation, he said happily: "It's good to be back! I will continue to work when I come back. You see, this week, I don't know what I am missing. Now you come back Yes, I am very happy." I said, "Chairman, I am the same. You are always missed in the school's heart!" "Okay, okay!" Mao Zedong was overjoyed, he came over and patted my shoulder, and kept saying, "We get along, we get along." Soon, I was promoted to Deputy Chief of Guards.The head of the guard is Wang Dongxing, the chief of the security department.From that short week, I deeply felt how inseparable I was from Mao Zedong.And Mao Zedong also very much hoped that I would be by his side.From then until 1962, I never left Mao Zedong again.As for my leaving Mao Zedong in 1962, if someone hadn’t interfered with it, maybe he would let me accompany him through the most difficult fourteen years of his life.This is something. Probably because I went out to study and failed to learn, which touched Mao Zedong. One day in 1954, Mao Zedong asked me to come to his office with Ye Zilong: "I have something important to tell you." After Ye Zilong and I went, Mao Zedong told us very carefully: "Recently, I want to do one thing, which is to set up an amateur school for your guards and other staff around you. The expenses of this school will come from my salary. Because the students are people around me, they are all working for me, so the state can no longer pay for it.” When he told us about this important decision, he habitually sucked his lower lip and said: "Without culture and knowledge, it is impossible to build socialism. The comrades around me are all good comrades, but their education level is too low. If you don’t study, if you don’t popularize education and improve your culture, the country will never become rich.” These few words of Mao Zedong are deeply imprinted on my heart.How much the old man cares about us ordinary soldiers and the younger generation, and uses the money he saved from living and frugal to run schools for us. Why don't we have any reason not to study hard! The soldiers of the guard squadron and the comrades of our guard squad were all very excited when they heard the news. After Mao Zedong asked us to take money from his salary, he asked the administrator, Comrade Zhang Guoxing, to buy textbooks, pens and ink, dictionaries, maps, workbooks, study materials and utensils for each of our more than 70 students.In his own name, Mao Zedong invited five teachers including Wang Jinshan, Zhu Jinli, and Zhou Qicai to teach us Chinese, mathematics, geography, politics, and nature. The classrooms of the amateur school are located in a row of small bungalows.Every day, except for the staff on duty, everyone goes to class, usually one class in the morning and one in the afternoon, each class lasts two hours. Mao Zedong cared about this amateur school very much, so he would visit it whenever he had time.He is even more concerned about the study of our guards, and often checks our homework. Among the guards, Feng Yaosong's cultural foundation was poor, so Mao Zedong paid more attention to his studies.One day, Feng Yaosong returned to Mao Zedong from his spare time school, and hurriedly handed the homework to Mao Zedong—because Xiao Feng got a big "5" today. "Well, there is progress!" Mao Zedong knew that Xiaofeng had eaten "0" eggs a few times at the beginning, and now he can get 5 points, so he was naturally overjoyed. Unexpectedly, Mao Zedong looked at it, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and said: "That teacher of yours is also a big fool!" Xiao Feng leaned over nervously, stood on tiptoe and looked at the homework.That above is the homework for this day, the teacher asked me to silently write Bai Juyi's famous novel "The Charcoal Vendor". Mao Zedong pointed to one of the lines: "Look, how do you pronounce this sentence?" "Worried about charcoal and cheap, wishing the weather is cold." "Did you write worry? Where did you stretch out a hand? You wrote disturbing, disturbing disturbing. No wonder the charcoal can't be sold at a price. So it was you who disturbed it." Mao Zedong said humorously, Xiao Feng straight Scratching his scalp and laughing awkwardly, his face was already red. "Read that sentence again." "Xiao drove a charcoal cart through ice ruts." "Is this 'retreat'? Meddling everywhere, retreating before the charcoal is sold, escapeism. This is retreating." Mao Zedong grabbed his pen, and while helping Xiaofeng correct his homework, he muttered: "Virtual 5 points, not worthy of the name." Therefore, Xiaofeng's homework changed from 5 points to 3 points. "How about it, are you convinced?" "Clothes." Mao Zedong smiled and said: "You have to study hard. Our Chinese characters are not like foreign languages. We pay attention to every stroke and every stroke. You can't just make more mistakes. You can't blame you for this mistake. The teacher didn't see it. Your vigilance is not high, but you must be more vigilant in the future!" Xiao Feng nodded quickly, expressing that he would definitely remember. Comrades in the amateur school called Mao Zedong the "principal" and "the sixth teacher".Mao Zedong deserved it.Because each of the five teachers only taught us one homework, but Mao Zedong taught us all the homework.From looking up the dictionary, the four arithmetic operations, to geography, history, and current affairs, he will teach us lessons.Among other things, as far as the usage of "de, land, and get", Mao Zedong told everyone how many times. The amateur school was opened from 1954 to 1957.The teachers taught hard, and everyone studied hard. More than 70 security soldiers and other staff members around Mao Zedong had reached the education level of graduating from junior high school. At that time, they could be regarded as "intellectuals". Mao Zedong was very happy to learn so successfully.He said: "Knowledge in the classroom is limited, and you still need to learn professional knowledge and social knowledge. In a word, never forget to study. Learning makes people progress, and pride makes people lag behind." All our comrades keep his Chunchun teachings in mind. On October 2, 1957, Mao Zedong wrote a letter to his secretary Link, in which he said: "...Drilling into reading books, newspapers and periodicals, collecting extensively, is beneficial to you and me." Usually, Mao Zedong not only read a lot of books by himself, but also read books and newspapers every day except for meetings and documents, even eating, going to school, etc. The drip time of the toilet is not spared. The former residence of Mao Zedong in Zhongnanhai is now open to the outside world - Juxiang Bookstore in Fengzeyuan, have you been there?Yes, after Mao Zedong entered Beijing, he lived here until the "Cultural Revolution".It is also the place where I stayed the longest with his old man. "Juxiang Study House" is a square courtyard with five rooms on the east, west, north, south, and north sides.The north room, which is the middle room of the main room, is Mao Zedong's small reception room, and the walls are full of bookshelves.The east and west rooms are Mao Zedong's bedroom, and there are also a row of bookshelves on the north and east walls. The books in these two places are the most familiar to me, because these are the books that Mao Zedong used the most and often read or searched for. Some are books being read.You may not believe it, how many of these have been let off for several months just on my back?That was when the war was fought in northern Shaanxi, and when the central authorities withdrew from Yan'an, they lost everything they could, but Mao Zedong was reluctant to lose his books.As a result, some of his books were buried, and some of his books were carried by a guard soldier in northern Shaanxi to his home for preservation.His frequently used "Ci Hai" and "Ci Yuan" are always with him.I took on this endorsement task at that time. The two rooms at the two ends of the north room, the three rooms at the north end of the west room, and the two rooms at the west end of the south room all later became Mao Zedong's special book collection rooms.The ancients said: "The family has ten thousand volumes of books", Mao Zedong's collection of books is more than ten thousand volumes!According to my estimate, there are at least 60,000 to 70,000 volumes.What you visit and see now is only part of it.There are also extensive collections of books in several other places where he lived and worked during his lifetime. When Mao Zedong first entered Beijing, there were only about a dozen bookcases.Later, it slowly accumulated, and there was a dedicated librarian.Most of the bookstores in Fengzeyuan were built by me, Mao Zedong’s librarian, Feng Zhifeng, the former director of the Central Literature Research Office, guards, and secretary Tian Jiaying, etc. After several years of hard work, we slowly built . Mao Zedong once opened the door of the bookstore and said to me: "There are many books here that you can't learn in class. You can come in and out freely to read and study when you have time. But you must put them in their original places. If you want to take them away, you have to type them out." Hello." I know, this is Mao Zedong's habit, he does not allow anyone to touch his books.But for the study of our guards, he actually made such a forgiveness.This allows our guards to have a good learning environment and superior conditions.Mao Zedong loved books all his life and loved reading. In the 1950s, he published volumes one to four of "Selected Works of Mao Zedong", which earned him nearly one million yuan in royalties.But Mao Zedong did not regard it as private property. Except for buying books and funding others, it was kept in the special accounting office of the Central General Office, and he never used it casually. Under the influence of Mao Zedong's care and precepts and deeds, our comrades in the guard class have also developed conscious study habits and a good atmosphere. After liberation, the guards around Mao Zedong changed several times.Every time the new guards come, Mao Zedong always cares about these little guards who are still in the ranks of "children" even though they are working. A well-known guard, Mao Zedong usually likes him very much.The guard was also determined to work by Mao Zedong's side.But the old man was reluctant to delay others, so he proposed to send the guard to school, but the guard did not want to leave because of excuses. Mao Zedong said, half caressing, half blaming: "You, you just have no ambition. If you are with me, of course I will No objection, but I can't delay you! I can't let you stay with me forever! Well, let's make an agreement. When you want to go to school, I will definitely send you there. But, before you don't want to leave, you You have to complete the study plan I set for you." In this way, Mao Zedong specially made a study plan for this guard, and often supervised and checked his study situation.Later, the guard was also old and was going to get married.Except for me, the head of the guard, generally speaking, guards have to engage in other jobs as soon as they get married.Several years passed in a flash. Before the guard left Mao Zedong, the old man said: "We had an appointment a few years ago. Now that the opportunity has come, I have to send you to school." In this way, under Mao Zedong's personal care, The guard and his new wife were sent to Renmin University to study together. "You all have to learn from Zhang Baojin! He is ambitious and promising. He studies well in college and is very self-motivated." Zhang Baojin used to be Mao Zedong's guard, and his work was average.When he was in Xiangshan, he was criticized by Mao Zedong for waking up Mao Zedong because of chopping firewood.But this comrade loves to learn culture, which is very prominent among our guards, and Mao Zedong likes it very much.Later, Mao Zedong sent him to college, and his grades were good. Zhang Baojin would come back to visit Mao Zedong every holiday during his school days.Therefore, Mao Zedong always mentioned this comrade who was eager to learn and motivated in front of our guards, and repeatedly asked us to learn from him. "I have been by Mao Zedong's side for more than ten years, and I have seen one crop after another of guards and guards who came to work with him and then left him. Mao Zedong never cared about these comrades' future work arrangements or job issues. The department has hinted at something, but it has repeatedly emphasized things like 'You have to be a man with your tail between your legs', 'Don't open your mouth and say that I am Mao Zedong or something', 'I have always opposed people who work by my side becoming high-ranking officials', etc., but Only when it comes to study, he cared about everyone. After leaving Mao Zedong’s bodyguards, Feng Yaosong, Tian Yunyu, Li Liancheng, etc., before leaving, Mao Zedong sent them to university to study. Even as an aunt in his house, Xiao Han, who later became my lover, was also admitted to Renmin University by Mao Zedong himself. This is the painstaking care Mao Zedong used for our younger generation." Said the chief guard.
