Wake up（51）

 

51

 

The more and more anticipated summer has finally arrived, the yard filled with the fragrance of flowers, the wind under the shade of trees, the laughter of children and the green eyes. The wind in early summer is warm. The wind gently blew the curtains on the window sill.

He Jiafu got up from the bamboo couch and sat at the table under the window sill. He is welcoming the arrival of the old fairy.

After a while, He Jiafu's little grandson called the old fairy who was chatting with the neighbors in the yard.

Seeing He Jiafu, the old god smiled and said, "Because you are resting on the bamboo couch, I dare not disturb you. Just now Yunshan told me that it is a great honor for you to see me."

He Jiafu smiled and said: "Sit, sit. I haven't seen each other for a long time, today I can chat for a while."

Two elderly people who were over ninety years old sat at the table, drinking tea and chatting.

The old fairy asked: "Now that the epidemic is rampant, how is your dragon body?"

He Jiafu smiled wryly and said: "I haven't contracted any disease yet, but I have a slight cough. When people get old, their bones are not as good as before. In addition, they are missing a leg, so they don't have to go out to show off."

The old god suddenly asked: "I heard that when you and Yun Shan set up a stall in the small town, you were bullied by the city management?"

He Jiafu: "I have long forgotten about this. This is a common occurrence. Nowadays, the power of the city management is almost lawless. I am a disabled old man. How can I compete with them. The world has changed. Living in the present, Patience is the best policy."

Old Immortal: "Old He is right. But why do you have to endure humiliation for the rest of your life?" The old Immortal still looked stable and elegant, full of demeanor. Nowadays, he is obsessed with the study of modern Yi-ology, and he talks endlessly about Yin-Yang and gossip.

The old god smiled and said: "He doesn't know something. I was labeled as a rightist when I was young, and I was rehabilitated later, but it became more and more rightist. I am a bit weird by nature, and I am known as a troublemaker."

It turned out that the old fairy's life experience was completely different from that of the local old farmers.

The old god's real name is Wu Qiankun. He once served as an interpreter for the "Flying Tigers" of the U.S. Air Force's aid to China during the Chinese War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression. Later, he went to study in the United States, majoring in English literature. In 1951, at the kind invitation of China, Wu Qiankun returned to China as a university professor with a heart of serving the country. But within two years, he was the target of criticism in one campaign after another. He was labeled as a rightist in 1957 and was persecuted for more than 20 years until he was "corrected" in 1979.

Wu Qiankun said to He Jiafu: "When I was criticized, those people accused me of promoting Western culture and being a Western wizard. But now people call me an old god. After more than half a century of tossing, I have to believe in evil. Now it is the Year of the Pig and Rat. Liu Bowen, the founding prime minister of the Ming Dynasty, once predicted that the Year of the Pig and Rat will be sad for ten sorrows. He predicted that there will be a major catastrophe in the Year of the Pig and Rat. Coincidentally, 2019 and 2020 are the Year of the Pig and Rat. A series of plagues broke out in China, including African swine fever, plague, new crown pneumonia and other epidemics, especially the rapid spread of the new crown pneumonia virus around the world in a short period of time, which seemed to fulfill Liu Bowen's prophecy one by one. Looking back over the past 120 years, every year of the rat in China It was not peaceful. The first Year of the Rat in the 20th century was 1900. During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, the Eight-Power Allied Forces Incident occurred. , the Battle of Taiyuan in 1948, and the Great Famine in China in 1960. Today’s new crown pneumonia epidemic also occurred in the Year of the Pig and Rat. Gods are sad for the Year of the Pig and Rat, and man-made disasters and plagues are so dangerous.”

He Jiafu asked: "Mr. Wu, you said that you were once labeled as a rightist. What is going on with this anti-rightist movement?"

Wu Qiankun told He Jiafu:

At the beginning, Lao Mao mainly wanted to realize military industrialization as soon as possible. When Lao Mao first launched this plan in 1953, he set the realization time as "ten to fifteen years", which was later shortened to eight, seven, five or even three years. As the tone of the Great Leap Forward became higher and higher, Lao Mao saw the "great situation" that was echoed by everyone and the country was hot, and it seemed that it would be no problem to rule the world through the Great Leap Forward.

But the so-called Great Leap Forward messed up the economy. Some intellectuals expressed dissatisfaction, and even General Peng couldn't stand it anymore, and wrote a letter of ten thousand words. As a result, Lao Mao was angered, so the anti-rightist struggle began. Anyone who opposed the Great Leap Forward became a rightist.

The "Anti-Rightist" Movement in 1957 broke the backbone of the Chinese people and caused the whole people to "silence". Afterwards, in a huge China, telling lies, listening to lies, doing false things, distorting facts, and competing to brag became a social trend, and the "Great Leap Forward" became a big explosion and a big show of collective lies fabricated by the whole country.

Hundreds of millions of Chinese pay homage to the emperor's new clothes and run naked with all their might. The great scientist Qian Xuesen, who is well-known both in China and the West, actually "scientifically demonstrated" three times that the yield per mu is not a problem. Amidst the coercion from top to bottom and blind obedience from bottom to top, absurd farces that make people haggard and drain people's vitality continue to be staged.

In 1958, Mao said at the enlarged meeting of the Military Commission: "At present, the Pacific Ocean is actually not peaceful. In the future, it will be considered as the Pacific Ocean if it is under our control." Soon he said to the secretaries of the provincial party committee: "In the future, we will set up an Earth Management Committee and set up an Earth Management Committee. Unify the plan.” According to Mao’s instructions, Xinhua News Agency publicly stated that “Xinhua News Agency must manage the earth.”

After listening to Wu Qiankun's narration, He Jiafu could no longer feel the romance of this early summer, what came from outside the window was only

With the sound of cicadas singing, the thoughts of summer are hidden in the green shade, and when the wind blows, the thoughts are messed up.

Wu Qiankun and He Jiafu were still talking, but the topic and content of the conversation made people feel psychologically depressed. The past days were really boring and chilling.
