Chen Xilian was startled and looked behind Chen Geng. She saw a beautiful girl with a round face and elegant temperament. Before he came to his senses, Chen Geng attached it to his ear and whispered, "This is my sister. I will be my wife if I take a fancy!"
At this time, Chen Xilian's wife died a year ago, leaving a young child unattended. Chen Xilian, a 34-year-old, is simple and honest, and has been friends with Chen Geng for many years. Knowing that eldest brother likes to play tricks on himself, he thought that Chen Geng was joking with himself again and laughed: "Your sister? You have such a beautiful sister? This old trick of six or seven years ago has long been seen through. "
It turns out that when I was studying in Yan 'an Party School six years ago, Chen Xilian was Chen Geng's favorite and often played tricks with him. Every time he plays tricks on his younger brother, Chen Geng has a bad conscience. She always promised me that she would introduce him to a beautiful girl as a daughter-in-law, but she never fulfilled her promise.
But this time, Chen Geng's expression was serious. He said solemnly, "This is really my sister! She is Wang Genying's little sister, called Wang Xuanmei! "
Listening to his ex-wife Wang Genying, Chen Xilian didn't expect anything. He looked at the girl with fine eyes in front of him. At first glance, she was a Jiangnan woman, blushing and heartbroken by their words.
Wang Xuanmei was originally a Shanghai female worker. After Wang Genying died, she took care of Chen Zhifei, the son of Chen Geng and Wang Genying, for many years. Later, she went to the Liberated Area and lived in Chen Geng's home for a period of time. When Chen Zhifei grew up, he went to the Medical College of North University and just graduated this year.
Chen Geng has deep feelings for Wang Genying, and has always regarded Wang Xuanmei as his own sister. I heard that Chen Xilian was single and didn't even say hello, so I took Wang Xuanmei to Wuhan for fear of missing this good marriage.
Chen Xilian was fond of her, and at the urging of Chen Geng, they got married soon, had four children and stayed together for half a century, while General Chen Geng and General Chen Xilian became famous "generals" of our army.
1939, Wang Genying was killed by the Japanese army; 1957, General Chen Geng died young due to overwork; In 20 10, he missed the death of his second wife, Fu Ya, for 53 years. Chen Geng's five daughters buried the ashes together in the mountain behind the former residence of Hu Quan Village, Longdong Town, Xiangxiang City, Hunan Province. Three granite stone tablets in the shape of hills stand together, leaving a touching love story for Chen Geng.
Chen Geng was very opinionated since he was a child. At the age of 6, he entered a private school, and at the age of 12, he entered Dongshan High School in Xiangxiang County. /kloc-when he was 0/3 years old, he fled his hometown and went to Lu Diping's department of Xiang Army. He was incorporated into the 2nd Battalion of the 6th Regiment and became a soldier.
And the reason why he wants to run away from home is because grandma Chen Geng wants this eldest son to get married early and have a big grandson.
19 16 Summer, Chen Geng just came back from a holiday in a high school, and his family immediately arranged a wedding for him, so that Chen Geng, aged 13, and Chen Bijun, aged 15, held a wedding. Chen Bijun lives in a former town more than ten miles away from Longdong Town. His family is in good condition, with dozens of acres of land. His father was a landlord and his grandfather was a general, so he was "suitable" for the Chen Geng family.
Chen Geng studied in a new school outside for a year and was influenced by new thoughts. He is very disgusted with arranged marriages. In addition, he is still young and has no idea of being a husband or a father. Therefore, he has refused to recognize this marriage and asked to sever the marriage relationship. However, his parents won't listen to his advice. There is no girl with better conditions than Chen Bijun. In addition, grandma was eager to have grandchildren, so she took her daughter-in-law in the door during the holiday and wanted to cook raw rice and cook mature rice.
Chen Geng quarreled for a while, but nobody paid any attention to him. He has to put on the groom's clothes and worship heaven and earth. After the people in the bridal chamber dispersed, the new house was filled with festive atmosphere everywhere. Stubborn Chen Geng looked at the cold moonlight outside the window and made up his mind to run away from home and not let others control his own destiny.
My parents fell asleep, and there was silence inside and outside. Chen Geng glanced at the bride who was leaning on the bed with her face facing the corner and said silently, "Sister! I feel sorry for you! I don't blame you, and neither do you. I want to live according to my own wishes. I'm leaving, take care! "
He took the prepared small luggage and went to Changsha on a starry night to sign up for the Hunan National Defence Force.
Chen Geng's grandfather, Chen Yiqiong, was a general of Xiang Army, and was awarded the title of "Evergreen Trees" by Zeng Guofan. His uncle, Chen Kun, is a veteran of Xiang Army, ranking second to none. He participated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, and there was always an 80-Jin broadsword in the Chen family compound, which made Chen Geng practice martial arts since childhood. After leaving home, he chose to follow the pen directly.
19 16 years, Yuan Shikai died of illness, and the northern warlords scuffled. Chen Geng, a short man, with a gun as high as his head, followed the Hunan National Defence Force to crusade everywhere, took part in the war against Wu, expelled Zhao Hengti, the governor of Hunan, and upheld the law. He was unscathed, but he was promoted from private to staff sergeant because of his meritorious military service. But he is tired of this life of scuffle all day. 192 1 year, 18-year-old Chen Geng left Yueyang military camp and went to Changsha as a clerk of Hunan Bureau of Guangdong-China Railway, actively studying at night schools, and then embarked on the revolutionary road.
During the Northern Expedition, he often met Wang Jingwei and Chen Bijun. As soon as they met, he joked that there was a wife named Chen Bijun in my hometown and I didn't want to marry her, which embarrassed Chen Bijun.
Many years later, Chen Geng and her children recalled the past and said that in fact, Chen Bijun's cultural level was very high, "I was wrong about her". But after all, he is only 13 years old and doesn't want to be bound by his small family early. When he joined the army, he changed his original name to Chen Geng.
He has been away from home for many years and has never heard from home. Later, the bride disappeared, which made Chen Geng feel a little ashamed.
192 1 year, Chen Geng entered Changsha self-study university and started revolutionary activities. 1922 joined the party, 1923 went to Shanghai university to attend the audit, and got to know Wang Genying, a representative of women workers in the Shanghai workers' movement.
Wang Genying, a native of Pudong, is three years younger than Chen Geng. She has been a child laborer since she was a child. /kloc-at the age of 0/8, she is already the leader of the strike movement and has participated in three armed worker uprisings. She is mature, beautiful and brave, and Chen Geng likes her very much.
1924, Chen Geng was admitted to Huangpu Military Academy. Because of his vigorous posture and extraordinary intelligence, he stood out among the first-year students, and he was also called "the Three Masters of Huangpu". Later, he became the most accomplished and famous of the three masters.
1927 in may, Chen Geng, who was participating in the northern expedition, went to Wuhan to attend the fifth congress of China. Including Wang Genying from Shanghai, there are 82 delegates.
Chen Geng, who was fond of her, met again four years later and saw that Wang Genying had grown into an outstanding female representative in the movement. She looks energetic and different. She admires her more and more, so she decides to use the precious time of the two-week meeting to storm and "win" Wang Genying.
Chen Geng, who is already the special agent battalion commander of the Northern Expeditionary Army, has rich experience in war, but he is courting for the first time in his life. So, after "careful consideration" and following the military orders, he wrote a note that read: "Comrade Wang Genying, I love you, and I solemnly propose to you, hoping you will marry me!"
After writing, he carefully folded the note and asked the comrades next to him to give it to Wang Genying, without feeling any presumptuous or abrupt.
Wang Genying suddenly received such a note, which was both abrupt and funny. She didn't realize how touching love this note conveyed, but she felt offended. So, in order to repay each other, she wetted the note with water with a teacup and posted it on the wall of the venue on the spot.
Ordinary people may feel a little embarrassed and embarrassed, but the indomitable Chen Geng was aroused by Wang Genying's actions, and felt that this girl was unique and must be conquered, so she handed over the second proposal note.
The second note was also posted on the wall by Wang Genying, and all the delegates noticed their actions. Chen Geng, who is tenacious in fighting spirit, quickly handed over the third note with a tough attitude. Chen Geng, who is open-minded, feels that after long-term understanding and today's actions, he can see that Wang Genying's resolute refusal represents her attitude towards feelings and is a rare good girl.
Since he met true love, he is not afraid to make the love letter public. Instead, all the people who came to the meeting were his comrades-in-arms, who knew Chen Geng very well and knew that he was not a casual person.
The third note was also posted on the wall by Wang Genying. She thought it would give Chen Geng some color to see see. But during the break of the meeting, the delegates looked at the note posted on the wall and couldn't help laughing, and publicly asked Wang Genying's attitude. Chen Geng had the cheek to stand out from the crowd and said loudly, "I think she should marry me. We are a perfect match. "
People around you also booed and said, "Chen Geng can fight and is handsome. Marry him!"
On the contrary, Wang Genying blushed and ran out.
Through this incident and the introduction of people around him, Wang Genying also noticed Chen Geng. Although he is humorous and looks a little informal, he is sincere, talented and determined, and not a casual person. The love letter he wrote was also sincere, which made him feel a little moved.
After the meeting, and Deng heard about it, and asked Chen Geng to give up the "storm". They also suggested that he go to Wang Genying to "apologize" in order to deepen their understanding and build feelings through apology. ...
At the same time, Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Enlai also came forward to introduce Chen Geng's experience and personality to Wang Genying in detail. After hearing about Chen Geng's glorious deeds in the Whampoa Military Academy and the Northern Expedition, Wang Genying admired him very much and formally agreed to Chen Geng's proposal. During the fifth congress, they held a simple wedding.
The "Three Masters of Huangpu" have their own strengths, namely, the pen, the mouth and the leg of Chen Geng. As the name implies, he is good at articles, but he is not good at speeches. Chen Geng is agile and walks quickly.
However, this Shen Xing Pacific Insurance was seriously injured in the Huichang Campaign of Nanchang Uprising. 1927. He was shot three times in the left leg and broke his tibia, fibula and ankle.
When the enemy searched, Chen Geng wanted to end his life by shooting himself in the head, but when he thought of his newly married wife, he gave up the idea of suicide and took off his coat and rolled into a nearby ditch, covered in mud and blood. When the enemy soldiers approached, Chen Geng held his breath and made the enemy soldiers mistake him for a dead man. After kicking him, he walked away.
At the end of this year, Chen Geng, who left the team, came to Shanghai via Hongkong and found his new wife Wang Genying. Wang Genying was overjoyed. He looked for doctors everywhere to heal his wounds and sent them to Niuhuilin Orthopedic Hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, because the injury lasted for too long, Chen Geng's leg was saved, but he could only limp from now on.
After his recovery, Chen Geng assumed the pseudonym of Wang Yong, and was responsible for the special work of eliminating spies and covering underground parties in Shanghai. The small family he established with Shanghainese Wang Genying is the best cover. During the period of white terror in blood shed, they had a rare reunion life for several years and gave birth to their son Chen Zhifei on 1929.
1June, 932, Chen Geng went to Hubei, Henan and Anhui Soviet area as the chief of staff of Gongsijun. 1June, 933, just before the underground party moved to the Soviet area, Chen Geng and Wang Genying were arrested and imprisoned.
With the help of Huangpu alumni, Chen Geng successfully escaped from Nanjing in May of that year and participated in the Long March with the Central Red Army. And Wang Genying was held until 1937, when the state cooperated with * * *, he was released from prison and came to Yan 'an to reunite with Chen Geng.
During this period, Wang Genying's family went into hiding, relying on her little sister Wang Xuanmei as a child laborer in the factory to make a living, while Chen Zhifei, the son of Chen Geng and Wang Genying, had been living with his grandmother and aunt for many years.
Soon, Chen Geng was appointed as the brigade commander of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army129th Division, and went to Shanxi to carry out the anti-Japanese struggle. Wang Genying was appointed as the political instructor of 129 Division Finance and Economics Cadre School.
On March 8th, 1939, the Japanese army surrounded jinan military area command base area, and all the logistics personnel of 129 division had already been evacuated. When Chen Geng heard that his wife was safe, he returned to Taihang Mountain with confidence, and Wang Genying suddenly remembered that he had a satchel containing important documents and public funds. After taking it back, it was caught up by the Japanese army and fell into machine gun fire.
When the news came, Chen Geng was deeply hurt and wrote in his diary that day: "March 8 is a day I can't forget, and it is also my most painful day."
He missed his wife in trouble and fell into grief. He vowed to keep a festival for her for three years and vent his anger on the enemy. He was particularly brave when he started fighting. 1940 After the establishment of Taiyue Military Region, it wiped out several Japanese invaders' brigades, pulled out several Japanese-occupied county towns, damaged railways for hundreds of kilometers, and became famous in one fell swoop.
1943, Chen Geng, 40, met Fu Ya, a 25-year-old female sharpshooter, under the enthusiastic introduction of her comrades around her. Fu Ya was a member of the Art Troupe of the General Political Department of Kangda University and was born in a big family in Shaoxing, Zhejiang. Ten brothers and sisters in the family went to different camps because of different values. Under the guidance of eldest brother, she took four brothers and sisters, Fu and * * *, to Yan 'an. Soon after, Fu Ya's fiance was also her.
Under the care of Zhou Enlai, Chen Geng and Fu Ya got married in Yan 'an. After marriage, it is also a matter of gathering less and leaving more. Rainbow Genying and Chen Geng are considerate and sincerely in love with his second wife, Fu Ya.
And his true feelings for his ex-wife Wang Genying till death do us part made Fu Ya admire him very much, so he took great care of Chen Geng, who was disabled and aged 15 years old. Shortly after their marriage, she asked Chen Zhifei to be taken away from her grandmother in Shanghai and live with her. 1946, after receiving letters from Chen Geng and Fu Ya, Wang Xuanmei realized that her brother-in-law Chen Geng was still alive, but her sister Wang Genying died a few years ago. Soon, under the arrangement of Chen Geng, she came to the Liberated Area with Chen Zhifei, who was 17 years old, and lived with Chen Geng and his wife. Fu Ya, who was kind and amiable, soon became sisters with Wang Xuanmei, and Wang Xuanmei became a "sister" from then on.
Chen Geng believes that victory is just around the corner, and national construction needs talents in science and engineering. Therefore, he advised his son Chen Zhifei to study engineering. Chen Zhifei and Wang Xuanmei both came to North University. His nephew studied engineering and his aunt studied medical school. Chen Geng is grateful to the Wangs for taking care of his son for many years, and misses his ex-wife who died heroically. Seeing that Wang Xuanmei is not young, she arranged a marriage for her and married her to her best friend Chen Xilian.
For Wang Genying's mother who is far away in Shanghai, Chen Geng is going to send her living expenses every month to show her friendship.
196 1 year, Chen Geng, then vice minister of national defense and responsible for organizing Harbin military industry, suffered from repeated heart attacks and died young at the age of 58. Since then, despite the difficulties at home and many children, Fu Ya still insisted on sending living expenses to Wang Genying's mother every month to fulfill her wish for Chen Geng.
After Chen Geng's death, Fu Ya was heartbroken and emaciated, weighing only 82 Jin. In order to express her grief, she began to read and sort out her husband's notes, letters, articles and other materials, and published books such as Diary of Chen Geng and Biography of General Chen Geng. During this process, she learned about Wang Genying's outstanding performance in Shanghai's trade union movement and deeply admired it. She looked around for comrades who had worked and fought with Wang Genying in the past.
She raised three young sons and a daughter by herself, and brought them up to be talents. Chen Geng's five children, three major generals and two professors all have a son, who can smile in the grave.
In 20 10, before Fu Ya died, he told his children to take Chen Geng's ashes out of Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery and bury them with Wang Genying. 20 1 1 year, their five children went to Xiangxiang, Hunan Province, and buried Chen Geng, Fu Ya and Wang Genying together in the mountain behind Chen Geng's former residence.
Chen Geng's two marriages reflected his personality. He chose a wife, one with an open mind, one who dared to fight and sacrifice, and one who was virtuous and upright. The feelings sprouted between these noble hearts are deep, persistent and pure. Chen Geng was sincere all his life and full of ambition for the country and people. As Marshal Chen Yi commented, "Chen Geng is like a piece of glass, clear and transparent from the inside out." Because of this, he got the true love and life-and-death follow-up of two outstanding women.
