The official blog of the People's Daily updated Weibo at 13:30 noon.

is a short interview video, less than ten minutes long.

The cover of the video is an old woman with a vicissitudes of life and a calm gaze.

Some news of the official blog of the People's Daily will be pushed to the Weibo user by the Weibo secretary, provided that the user has clicked on the official blog of the People's Daily.

The official blog of the People's Daily is operated by a special person, and the dynamic updates on Weibo are very frequent, with as many as 54.53 million fans.

However, the popularity of Weibo has not been high, and likes, comments, etc. are not very active.

When this dynamic was updated, the Weibo secretary pushed the message to many Weibo users as usual, and in the following minutes, more than 100,000 users clicked on the video......

............

This video was recorded on the morning of August 1st, and is an excerpt from a special event jointly sponsored by official propaganda and other organizations......

"Looking for a military man's home. ”

Multi-entertainment cultural public welfare organizations will plan special programs for August 1st, and the official will also plan a special issue to promote and popularize the festival of August 1st.

This special event was different from the previous ones, and there was plenty of time to prepare, but the process of recording and opening it on the day was adopted to make the event look more realistic.

...... In the morning, a female presenter from Kyoto, accompanied by a cameraman, came to a place.

In front of the camera, the hostess said in a very emotional tone, "Today, we are going to visit a special person." ”

The preparation was fairly adequate, at least that's what the audience saw in the video.

After the hostess's words fell, an old woman appeared in the video.

The calm of the long years in his eyes contrasts sharply with the vicissitudes of life on his face and the coarse dark linen that looks like an apron.

Under the introduction of the host, the old woman understood the meaning of the group, she stood in front of the camera, and told a simple and simple story in a calm tone.

"My name is Ning Qilan, my son, and I am an ordinary warrior. ”

The old woman paused when she said this, pursed her lips, and then continued, "He, who is also a martyr, died. ”

This calm tone and the vicissitudes of life standing in front of the camera, as well as the gloomy environment behind it, all tell the audience that sometimes, calmness is a deep pain.

Sometimes, some official organizations do not deliberately uncover some scars like Lu An or Duoyu Cultural Public Welfare Organizations, but will make the pain more dripping because of certain factors.

"Twenty-five years ago, I first learned the news of my son's death, and I was in pain. ”

When Ning Qilan said this, her tone was fluctuating for the first time, and her voice was a little trembling and slightly vague because of her age.

"He died in '84, and I didn't receive it until eight years after his death...... Martyr...... Notice of Death. ”

Ning Qilan paused several times for this sentence, even if 33 years have passed, or 25 years have passed, she is still very painful when she mentions this matter.

She crossed her hands in front of her, in the most ordinary humble posture of ordinary people, and the narration stopped again.

The hostess did not urge, nor did she make any gestures, and the habitual professional smile on her face had long since converged.

Silently waited for Ning Qilan to speak again.

Ning Qilan's words were not logical, and she said them very scattered.

"I have suffered for many years, but I don't regret sending him to be a soldier, but I didn't expect that it would be 33 years. ”

Ning Qilan pursed her lips again, and the tremor in her voice became more obvious.

"The only thing I want to do all these years is to save some money and go to see him once, he has been sacrificed for 33 years, I know that he has been sacrificed for 25 years, I, a mother, have not been to see him for 33 years. ”

"I don't know if he will be cold down there, whether he will eat enough every day, and whether he will have any clothes to wear. ”

Ning Qilan said as she spoke, her upper and lower lips began to tremble violently, and her thin body seemed to be accumulating strength.

Her tears may have been shed in the past 33 or 25 years.

"Back then, when he left home and said that he was going to war, I was sewing clothes for him, and when he was halfway sewed, he hurried away, and when he arrived, he could not put on new clothes, so I thought that I could burn him with my own hands, so that he could put on new clothes. ”

"I just want to be able to do this in my lifetime. ”

Ning Qilan said this sentence calmly, as if she remembered something, and emphasized, "Soon, I'm almost saving enough for the journey......

This is the end of the video.

The old woman's face full of vicissitudes, her calm expression and trembling lips are frozen in the picture.

She, 25 years ago, knew that her son had died, and all her spiritual pillars collapsed, and she took the 550 yuan martyr's pension, which was a huge amount of money in the 90s.

She wanted to see her son.

In the end, because of the high mountain and long road, I couldn't make the trip, and the bus and horse fare in the 90s were much more expensive than I imagined.

In the past 25 years, Ning Qilan has asked the township for tolls more than once, but each time to no avail, and she still has not saved enough money.

The speed at which she earns money cannot be compared to the soaring prices and the rapid development of the economy.

Because, she is just an ordinary woman, even Mandarin is so non-standard, and she can't even express her own thoughts clearly enough.

All she can rely on is to pick up the rags every day, and on the premise of keeping herself alive, save every penny and save enough money to go to the martyr's cemetery.

Maybe it's a thousand kilometers, maybe it's two thousand kilometers, but she doesn't even know where the road is, she just knows that if she has enough money, she can take the train and go over.

Each mineral water bottle can be exchanged for 1 cent, because of the congenital constraints of the environment, her income is not good.

Occasionally, you need help from your neighbors.

If it weren't for the idea of wanting to take a look at the child, it would be hard to imagine how Ning Qilan would have lived through these 25 years?

Perhaps, in the interview, Ning Qilan said her request, or maybe she didn't, who knows?

............

In this August 1st special program, after the first interview was completed, the second interview that will be conducted next ended up not going forward, which can be regarded as a failure.

Because, some external factors intervened.

People who are high above rarely put their eyes down, because the butt determines the focus of the gaze.

However, 25 years really deserve a little attention.

After hearing the secretary's report, he was furious, "Immediately, immediately, I will be instructed to do this! 25 years! Are these people eating?"

Stop this program first, and put this section on the official blog of the People's Daily!

I don't know where the program team found Ning Qilan, and I don't know why I found Ning Qilan, but I didn't help her achieve her wish, but made the leader angry.

I only know that before the leader was angry, someone knew about it earlier.

One might call it the initiator.

This person is Lu An.

This is also the first time that Lu An feels so uneasy about his conscience, for the sake of more of the same people, he chose to expose Ning Qilan in front of the camera.

Therefore, after the interview, Lu An and several people rushed to the local area.

In a small village in Hebei.

Lu An saw Ning Qilan, compared to Ning Qilan seen from the report materials, Ning Qilan in reality is more vicissitudes.

After Lu An met the veteran Uncle Qi, he secretly made some decisions in his heart, such as telling Bai Jingliang about the problems of the veterans of the Anti-Japanese War, such as the public welfare village.

Another example is to quietly look for another group of ordinary people who are actually more in need of help...... Military.

Ning Qilan's matter was a difficult decision made by Lu An after repeated hesitation, and even the August 1st special program had Lu An's shadow in it.

Well, Lu An's 'shadow'.

Two more are completed, and the number of chapters is emmmm~

Broken bowls.
