Chapter 11 Letter to Liu Yazi[1]

(October 4th and 7th, 1945) Mr. Yi Yazi My Brother’s Daoist: After recitation of the poems and great demonstrations, I deeply feel the meaning of being diligent and tireless in teaching people.Has Mrs. Liu[2] recovered from her illness? In such a serious situation, only relatives can understand her pain, and thus causing her own pain cannot be explained by the theory of "shortness of breath".In terms of the current situation, we have received various inquiries, but none of them have yet reached a specific resolution period.Most of the reports are unbelievable.I once told the second language: the future is bright, but the road is tortuous.We mostly think about the word "twists and turns" (that is, difficulties), which almost reflects the reality, so as to avoid a lot of distress when we are disappointed.And overcoming difficulties is by no means an easy task.This point is cited by Mr. Shen Wang as the same tune.There are some things to talk about, let me tell you later, and I won’t repeat them here.Mr. Poetry should be generous, despising Lu You and Chen Liang[3], reading it makes people feel excited.Unfortunately, I can only read, not do.But one more reader than me among thousands of readers is not considered an insult to Mr., and I am proud of it again.Respect Xingju Anji!

Mao Zedong October 4th Mr. Er Yazi My Brother's Daoist: It is known repeatedly.The last letter is full of emotion, and I feel the deepest gratitude.Going shirtless, while sometimes feasible, has its drawbacks as a regular method, as Mr. knows all too well.It is still too early to publish articles and talks.Candidates cannot be discussed, so it is better to leave them behind.When I first arrived in northern Shaanxi and saw the heavy snow, I filled out a poem [4], which seemed to be slightly similar to my husband's poem style, and it was recorded and submitted for review.Praise Daoan!
