Chapter 66 end

On the afternoon of September 11, 1985, Liu Baiyu came to Union Medical College Hospital to visit Ding Ling who was hospitalized, and the two had a long talk.This was probably the only long conversation between the two after Ding Ling came back.They talked about 1955, 1957, and Zhou Yang. Ding Ling said: After the closing of the enlarged meeting of the Party Group of the Writers Association in 1957, Zhou Yang said two words to me when I left. The first sentence: "No one will call you comrade again in the future. What do you think?" 1957 At that time, of course I had nothing to say.The second sentence: "In my opinion, whoever laughs last laughs the best!" He is very proud, he has won, and I am a loser, an anti-party group and a rightist!

Liu Baiyu said that now Zhou Yang suffers from encephalomalacia, and it is very difficult for him to speak. When people visit him, he often sheds tears. Ding Ling said, God knows, if you don’t suffer from encephalomalacia, you’ll laugh the best when you laugh till the end. At most, I can only turn over. Do I still have many problems left over? You don’t, what a pity your brain softened.After all, he laughed. On March 4, 1986, Ding Ling died of illness in Union Hospital.At the age of 82. On July 31, 1989, Zhou Yang died of illness in Beijing Hospital.At the age of 81.
