The selflessness of the eldest uncle helped the family a lot, although the salary is meager now, but it was not simple at that time, the grandparents relied on the salary of the eldest uncle, not only solved the problem of food and clothing for the family, but also continued to buy household belongings.

The eldest uncle was specially called into the army, so the grandparents' family belonged to the military family, and the old house that had just been purchased had a plaque of "glorious military family" hanging on the lintel. New China had just been founded, and very few old family members had joined the army, so the grandparents' family had a high prestige in the local area.

At the beginning of liberation, the land was divided and the landlords and rich peasants' property were redivided, and no matter what was divided, in the words of the older generation, respecting military dependents was to let the grandparents choose first, and then it was the turn of others.

Perhaps it was because of the fear of poverty and hardship, the grandparents attached great importance to the family funds that had been accumulated with great difficulty, so they maintained it very much, and the prestige of the eldest uncle in the local area was too high, and this maintenance eventually caused trouble when the cooperative movement was launched.

The eldest uncle works in the public security, but he is actually a soldier, and I heard that he usually carries a gun. It is said that someone in his hometown once served as an official in the Kuomintang army, and when he was defeated, he begged his uncle and issued a road slip to escape to Taiwan.

In the mid-fifties, the whole country carried out the movement of agricultural production cooperatives, commonly known as eating "big pot rice". The grandparents were very stubborn and unwilling to give up the fields they had accumulated with great difficulty, as well as the cattle and production equipment.

They are even more reluctant to join cooperatives, and hand over the materials they have accumulated with great difficulty to the collective for redistribution, return to poverty, eat collective canteens, and earn labor with labor.

At that time, the establishment of cooperatives was the biggest political task, and the commune workers came to the door many times to do the ideological work of the grandparents, but the grandmother just did not agree, and the grandmother also scolded the commune secretary and others who came to the door to do the work, which led to the escalation of the contradictions.

It is not a trivial matter not to actively participate in the great socialist transformation movement, and the materials are reported layer by layer, there are public enmities and personal grudges, the grandfather served as a pseudo-security chief, and the eldest uncle gave the Kuomintang officers a road slip, all of which are also listed.

It is said that the secretary of the commune at that time also carried a gun, and the secretary of the commune went to the unit where the eldest uncle worked to investigate, and when he disagreed, he took out his gun and threw it on the table.

This story is told by the old family the most and most excitingly, with great pride, but also with great respect and worship. However, this approach did not calm the situation, but intensified the contradictions.

The eldest uncle was extremely loyal to the party's cause, but in the face of the situation at that time, he did not make an accurate judgment, and he also believed that it was all accumulated by his own efforts, and the source was clear. Coupled with the fact that it was said at the time to be voluntary, he thought that the commune's approach was too strong.

However, the local ** did not understand it in this way, and regarded it as a great call, which must be resolutely implemented, and could not be solved when encountering resistance, which dragged down the hind legs of socialist construction, so it constantly reflected to the superiors, and also continued to deliver all kinds of "rightist" materials to the unit where the uncle worked.

Although he was not branded as a "rightist" and a "counter-revolutionary" because of this, the impact must have been considerable, because he was eventually transferred out of Nanchang and even left the public security force.

At that time, the whole country was carrying out a campaign to learn from the youth of reclamation, and every young cadre had to write an application to volunteer to work in a difficult environment, and his uncle also wrote such an application, and his application was quickly approved, and he left the provincial public security department and went to the field chief of a remote farm called a sand seller in Shangrao Lead Mountain.

Thirty years later, the central government fully rehabilitated and implemented the policy, and the uncle returned to the public security team, was assigned to work in the Shangrao City Public Security Bureau, enjoyed department-level treatment, and was also assigned a house in the family dormitory.

Soon after returning to the public security team, he reached retirement age, and around 2010, the eldest uncle finally listened to everyone's persuasion and moved out of the farm where he lived in forty or fifty to live in the family dormitory of the Shangrao City Public Security Bureau.

How tortuous the process was, the older generation wrote very little about this period, and the eldest uncle never mentioned it. Just listening to my father, my uncle at that time had a belief that he would never leave the unit or the organization.

The fourth uncle got the help of the eldest uncle, who was already a public security traffic police officer in Nanchang City at that time, and because of the incident of the eldest uncle, he was also arranged to work in Jinggangshan from afar, where he was beaten and excluded, so he had the idea of leaving the unit.

After the eldest uncle learned about it, he wrote many letters to admonish, the central meaning is not to leave the unit, if you don't leave for a day, the organization will take care of you for a day, no matter what happens in the future, there is always a place to stay, the fourth uncle may be under too much pressure, and finally failed to listen to the advice of the eldest uncle, resolutely followed his wife to a foreign country, and since then left the unit and started a miserable life.

Uncle is now 90 years old, I have visited many times, the spirit is still strong, the thinking is still agile, asked about his experience, shut up, a sentence "past, look forward" to bring.

It wasn't until one time that I went to visit my cousin, who was already the head of a police station in a certain town in Yiyang, and when talking about our work, he smiled and said that he had been the head of a local police station in Nanchang more than 60 years ago, and he was the first of New China.

There are many stories about the great uncle, which are sung in our big family, and he has a very high position in the family, and everyone respects him very much, and he is praised with gratitude and praise, and he has never heard a word of disparagement.

Later, I heard from his eldest son that after being sent to the lead mountain sand dealer farm, the eldest uncle often locked himself in the study alone, writing letters to his superiors to report his thoughts and reflections. What my cousin said is very mysterious, saying that the eldest uncle has been writing letters to the central government, which cannot be confirmed, and the eldest uncle never talks about it, and may only sink into history, and there is no memory of him.

I have been to the Sand Seller Farm many times, and I have seen this study room, which belongs to one of the rows of bungalows, which is very similar to the Qingnian Tang Bungalow. The room was full of books, except for a desk that stood out from the crowd, with a white sheet of paper on which there was nothing but pen and ink.

The eldest son of the eldest uncle, because the eldest uncle is respected by the family, is also loved and respected by everyone, and he is indeed faithful to undertake the duties of the family liaison, because of his efforts, the cousins scattered all over the world, the relationship is always harmonious, and the movement is always frequent, and it is not easy to maintain this family affection.

Due to the difference between the father and the six brothers who got married, this cousin failed to become the eldest son of the family, and the eldest son of the family was the eldest son of the third family.
