The story of Mao Zedong as a child
The great man Mao Zedong was born on December 26, 1893 in Shangwuchang, Shaoshan Chong, Xiangtan County, Hunan Province.
Shaoshan Chong is a beautiful place, surrounded by mountains, green trees and bamboos; on a slope shaded by pines and bamboos, there is a concave-shaped house. This kind of house is locally called "a load of firewood" style dwellings. The walls of the houses are all made of adobe bricks, with more than half covered with green tiles and the other half covered with straw. Mao Zedong was born in that blue-tiled house. This is called Shangwuchang. There are two ponds in front of Mao Zedong's house, which are good places for swimming in summer.
Mao Zedong’s father is Mao Shunsheng. Mao Shunsheng only studied for two years and became a director of his family at the age of 7. However, he inherited a large debt and had to serve as a soldier for several years. After returning, he worked at home and farmed. He was smart and capable, good at business, and also engaged in grain, pig and cattle business. He quickly paid off his debts, redeemed 15 acres of rice fields, and his life became better and better.
Mao Zedong’s mother’s name was Wen Qimei. Her natal family was only a few miles away from Shaoshan Chong, separated from Shaoshan Chong by Yunpan Mountain, in Tangjiatuo, the fourth capital of Xiangxiang County. Wen Qimei is of medium height, delicate appearance, round face, wide forehead, smart and kind, hard-working and frugal, and willing to help others. In years of famine, she often helps the poor and is highly praised by her fellow villagers.
After Mao Zedong was born, his parents were very happy. They made "Three Dynasties Wine" when he was full moon, and specially asked a learned old gentleman to give him a name, "Mao Zedong", with the courtesy name Runzhi. After Mao Zedong was one month old, his mother Wen Qimei took him to her grandmother's house. Grandma loves her grandson very much. I asked a fortune teller to test my grandson's horoscope, and he said that if he wanted to grow up safely, he must have a long-lived godmother. Who lives longer? Grandma believes that the two-foot-tall stone in the back mountain has the longest lifespan. So, they chose an auspicious day, bought incense, candles and wine, carried Mao Zedong to the big stone, asked him to bow, worshiped the big stone as "godmother", and gave him a name "" Shi San", according to local custom, he is called "Shi San Yazi". Grandma was reluctant to let go of her grandson, so Mao Zedong stayed at her grandma's house until he was 4 years old.
Mao Zedong was smart since he was a child. People praised him for being a genius when he grew up.
That was when Shi Sanyazi was 4 years old. During the Chinese New Year, grandma dressed him in new clothes and a red hood, and played with the children. There was an old man with a white beard who liked to play with children. He deliberately kept a straight face, raised his white beard, and frightened the children, saying: "You are not allowed to play here, I will cut off your ears."
When the children heard this, they ran away in fright. Only Shi Sanyazi stood there motionless. The old man with the white beard asked him: "Why don't you run?" Aren't you afraid that I'll cut off your ears? "Shi Sanyazi was not afraid of him at all, but asked: "Old grandpa! Why did you cut off my ears? The old man with the white beard thought this child was quite interesting and said seriously: "I'm going to cut off your ears and make them as appetizers!" Shi Sanyazi was not afraid at all, and said seriously: "A person must be reasonable in doing things." Grandpa, are you being reasonable? If you are reasonable, I will feed you my ears; if you are not reasonable, I will rip off your beard. "While talking, Shi Sanyao looked at the old man with a white beard and smiled. He also unbuttoned the red hat and exposed his ears.
The old man with a white beard was shocked and thought: A It is really rare for a 4-year-old child to have such courage and intelligence.
When Mao Zedong was living at his grandmother's house, his eighth uncle opened a family school to teach the 4-year-old Shi Sanyazi. I went to be an "auditor". When several brothers were reciting, because they were usually playful, they were all sweating profusely and their faces were red. At this time, little Shi San couldn't memorize. Yaozi stood up and said, "Eighth uncle, let me carry it!" Uncle Eighth said in surprise: "Can you recite it?" ""I can memorize it. If you don't believe it, just listen! "Shi Sanyaozi calmly recited "Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou Wu and King Zheng..." in one breath, every word is good. After my grandmother heard about this, she said happily: "Shi Sanyaozi is really smart, I'm afraid... The Wenqu star in the sky descends to earth! "Shi Sanyaozi started working with adults when he was 6 years old. He often went to herd cattle with a few friends. Children are playful, and when they are happy, they forget about the cattle. They either let the cattle eat other people's seedlings, or they eat them. Not full. How can we make the cows eat well and have fun at the same time? Shi Sanyazi thought of a good way: organize the friends into groups, and let one group herd the cows and another group gather wild fruits and cut grass. . Then, tie up the cows and let them eat the cut grass, and the friends can play games and tell stories.

"Zhou Enlai persuaded Mother Chen and quickly buried her head in a basin of cold water, which drove away the sleepyheads and made her head clearer.
Having just finished writing a hundred words, Mother Chen gave it a try He grabbed Enlai's pen and said, "That's enough now, go to sleep!" "No! "Zhou Enlai carefully read the one hundred characters that were still wet with ink, frowned and said seriously: "Mother Chen, you see these two characters are written crookedly. " As he spoke, Zhou Enlai's white and tender little hand took up the pen again and wrote the two words three more times until he was satisfied.
