0358 The past is like the wind

"In the history of our party, there were two old revolutionary men named Wang Huiwu, and the other was a woman, so the Wang Huiwu we are talking about, in order to show respect for women, in the Soviet area in 1932, he changed his name to Wang Renwu, Wang is his biological mother's surname, therefore, we still call him Wang Renwu."

"Outside the village of my hometown Ningjia Village, there is a famous big river in Xijiang Province called Jinchuan River, there is a Wangjia Village on the opposite side of the river, there is no bridge on the river, and it is necessary to cross the Jinchuan River nearly 500 meters wide, all relying on a small ferry boat that can carry dozens of people, the two villages are different counties on the same river, Ningjia Village belongs to Wanchuan County, and Wangjia Village belongs to Markham County."

"I remember that it was October 1923, one day in early autumn, Wang Guitian, the landlord of Wangjia Village, his eldest son Wang Renwu, who ran away from marriage two years ago, suddenly came back with a foreign spirit, I had just turned eighteen years old at that time, and I had studied in the county for two years in junior high school three years ago, and I was a relatively literate person in Ningjia Village, my father worked for more than 20 years for Wang Guitian's family in Wangjia Village, opposite the Jinchuan River, Wang Guitian's family ran a primary school in the village, and I taught in that primary school through my father's introduction. While doing some accounting and other chores for the Wang family, Wang Guitian had been dead for more than two years at that time, and the family affairs were presided over by Wang Renwu's mother, remembering that his family still had more than 500 acres of paddy fields at that time, but after all, it was a female streamer, and the family road had slowly declined. ”

"Wang Renwu was born in 1900, graduated from the Provincial No. 1 Normal School, and in 1920 worked as a Chinese teacher in Wanchuan County for a year, and happened to teach in my class, so he can be regarded as my teacher, plus the two families are only separated by a river, and my father is an old long-term worker in his family, and we are also teachers, and soon became good friends who have nothing to say, and at that time, he became the enlightener of my revolutionary road."

"After Wang Renwu returned home, he soon found me, it turned out that he joined the party organization shortly after he ran away from marriage two years ago, and was sent by the party Central Committee to study in the Soviet Union for two years, and secretly returned to China half a year ago, and after participating in the third national congress of the party, he was appointed as a member of the Xijiang Provincial Party Committee and a member of the special working committee of the northern district of Xijiang Province of the party. When I returned home this time, I was ordered to develop the party's organization and carry out the peasant agrarian revolutionary movement, and I naturally became his development target, and he became one of the introducers of my joining the party, and the other introducer was his assistant, Liu Zhongmin, the secretary of the special work committee at that time. ”

"A year later, Wang Renwu went to work in the central organ of Donghai City, and I was ordered to work in the peasant movement training center in Nanyue, during which we had no contact for three whole years, and I didn't know where the other party was doing, especially in 1927, when Jiang XX betrayed the revolution and launched the April 12 counter-revolutionary coup, the XX party members were killed in a river of blood, the whole country was full of white terror, and the revolution was at its lowest ebb and most critical juncture...... However, one day in August 1927, we were unexpectedly reunited in our hometown. ”

"At that time, the party's special work committee of the northern district of Xijiang Province, due to the record of Liu Zhongmin's arrest and betrayal, has been completely destroyed, Liu Zhongmin not only led people to burn Wang Renwu's home, but also arrested Wang Renwu's mother, knowing that he is a filial son, after getting the news, he will definitely rush back from the provincial capital to rescue, sure enough, Wang Renwu, who was the temporary secretary of the party's provincial party committee at that time, learned the news of his mother's arrest, and hurried back to his hometown alone without the approval of the organization."

"On the streets of Wanchuan County that day, we met very accidentally, I was ordered by the Party Central Committee, together with four comrades, carrying confidential documents of the Party Central Committee, a batch of guns, ammunition and silver dollars, to Nanhu Province to participate in the upcoming Autumn Harvest Uprising, our mission and itinerary are extremely secretive, I reluctantly agreed to sit down with Wang Renwu to talk, has violated the party's discipline, so when he proposed to borrow someone to borrow a gun to borrow money to save his mother, I refused without hesitation, What's more, the party organization in that area at that time was almost completely destroyed by the xx party, and I couldn't trust Wang Renwu, who was alone and acted secretly, so I was scolded by him for being ungrateful and not saving him when he saw death...... This was the first misunderstanding between us. ”

"History is always like this, misunderstandings and coincidences, sometimes it happens one after another at a certain node or a certain person, Wang Renwu has no hope of saving his mother, returned to the provincial capital, never thought that the provincial party committee at that time was betrayed by a traitor, was destroyed between the xx party ****, there were nine members of the Xijiang underground provincial party committee at that time, and the only survivor was Wang Renwu, so he not only lost his connection with the party organization, but also carried the suspicion of a traitor, but this old man did not reflect on himself, and still thinks that it is because I don't help him, As a result, he delayed his return to the provincial capital, and the provincial party committee was wiped out by the enemy before he had time to transfer, and this account became his second misunderstanding of me. ”

"The third misunderstanding occurred in the Soviet area in 1932, and Wang Renwu, who had lost contact with the party for several years, finally appeared, but at that time it coincided with the rebellion in the Soviet area, and I was also removed from office for review, Wang Renwu, who had been missing for several years, plus the unshirkable leadership responsibility for the complete destruction of the Xijiang Provincial Party Committee, and the suspicion of a traitor on his back, made him the object of censorship as a matter of course, Wang Renwu, who had no way to defend himself, asked someone to hand me a note to prove it for him, but I was also a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it was difficult to protect myself, how to prove it for him, I only wrote about him and me meeting by chance in Wanchuan County, and running around with him to save his mother, but he said that I was unkind and unrighteous and would not save me when I saw death, and scolded me in the isolation room every day...... Fortunately, he had a background in the Soviet Union, and the Central Committee at that time was controlled by the Soviet Union, so that he barely passed, but since then, his position in the party has plummeted, if he was elected to the Politburo of the Central Committee before, and has entered the core leadership of the Central Committee, although he has always been a member of the Central Committee, but basically marginalized, since then the focus of his work and research has also shifted to the party's theory, and gradually became one of the top theoreticians in the party. ”

"Of course, I also had a misunderstanding with him, I remember that in 1935, on the way of our army's Long March to the north, I was ordered by the Central Committee to go to Donghai City to find the local party organization that insisted on the underground struggle, and took the opportunity to go to the Comintern in the Soviet Union to report to work, in Donghai City I was hunted down by the enemy, and at a very critical time, I met Wang Renwu on the street of Donghai City, he was a member of the party's Donghai City Underground Special Committee, but he was not responsible for contacting me, so we pretended not to know each other and passed by, in fact, he was not to blame for that incident. In 1943, when he was rectifying the wind in the base area, he said how I could not save myself when I saw death, and I unceremoniously pulled out the scene in Donghai City, arguing back and forth, and we both passed the test after the rectification movement, but the misunderstanding between each other deepened. ”

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, I was transferred back to work in the Central Committee in 1953, and Wang Renwu was also transferred from Donghai City to Beijing in 1955 to serve as the head of the Central Propaganda Department and the president of the Central Party School. He thought it was too noisy, so in the spring of 1955, he moved here. ”

"Hehe, two old guys over half a hundred years old, like children as vindictive, old and dead do not get along, when they meet, they will twist their heads to the side, it has become a big joke in Nanyuan Garden, Brother Wang is just like he is engaged in theoretical research, persistently sticking to it, what about me, there is also a stinky problem of arrogance and conceit, some old colleagues can't stand it, and they have persuaded the door, and later, this matter went to the ears of the chairman and the prime minister, the chairman criticized me and said, one day as a teacher, a lifelong teacher, you Ning Ruifeng has the highest tail, and in the record of future history, He Wang Renwu will always be your teacher...... The chairman's words made me feel ashamed, and then, the prime minister personally invited me and Wang Renwu, and we finally let go of our previous suspicions, and slowly the two families also moved around each other. ”

……

Speaking of this, Ning Ruifeng stopped, looked at the thick snow by the pavilion, and let out a long sigh.

"Grandpa, what you said is too far away, the past is like the wind, like an autumn dream, those old things, let the experts in the future explore," Chang Ning said with a smile, "You still say, since you two old people have reconciled before the ice release, why is it now a resurgence of old diseases, and old age and death are no longer in touch?" ”

"Hmph, it's not all your unsuccessful father's trouble, our Ning family owes him a debt to the Wang family, and we can't pay it back in this life."

Chang Ning said seriously: "Grandpa, you can't say this about a person who is gone, even if he is your son. ”

"Hmm...... That's right, yes......" Ning Ruifeng sighed slightly again, and slowly continued.

"At that time, Ning Qiao was the child king of Nanyuan Garden, these dozens of children and girls were all mixed together by him, Nanyuan Garden every weekend, it has simply become the world of these little guys, the first thing your grandmother does when she comes home from work every day is to ask the family, if there is any door to complain, according to your grandmother, the fruit trees planted in the yards of dozens of families in Nanyuan Garden have never been ripe, because, because they are all led by Ning Qiao, they have been picked up before they are ripe."

"Wang Renwu has three children, the eldest Wang Xia is two years younger than Ning Qiao, after our two families reconciled, she also became Ning Qiao's follower and friend, according to others, this girl secretly liked Ning Qiao when she first moved to Nanyuan Garden, but Ning Qiao didn't know it, all she thought about after the holiday every day was where to make trouble and have fun."

"Alas...... The later tragedy began with Wang Xia's crush on Ning Qiao......"
