Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 24 Articles
"Good editor-in-chief. But before confirming, I would like to ask the editor-in-chief to read another article. I think there are still many places to be confirmed."

"Huh?" Wei Sheng picked up another article and found that the handwriting was the same as the previous one: "Same author?"

"And it was written by the same person." Xiao Xiao couldn't help laughing when he thought of the content in it: "That article is what I want to recommend to the editor-in-chief. The angle of the material is absolutely amazing!"

Wei Sheng put on his glasses: "A...special party member?"

This article is in the genre of a short story, the protagonist is still the old man just now, but the time background is the turbulent struggle years from [-] to [-].

The background of the event is two major events in the history of the Jiachuan Party - the establishment of the Jiachuan Hongshui Red Joint Special Branch, and the struggle against the Shidingshan Peasant Uprising.

At that time, there was a big figure in Gujing Su's family, Brother Qingshuipao from Gelaohui, a great merchant from Kaiwufengyinlou in Manzhou, and Su Huaxuan, the review committee member of the Manzhou Party Committee.

Jiachuan is located at the junction of the three provinces of Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou. In [-], under the cover of the boss Qingshuipao, the Jiachuan Hongshui Red Joint Special Detachment led to the important town of Guizhou in Gujing Township - Wutongchang Establish.

The Shidingshan Uprising was an armed uprising launched by the United Special Branch in the name of the "Guerrilla Column in the Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou Border Area" in the Kuomintang-controlled area in three to five years.

The uprising lasted for more than a month, and dealt a heavy blow to the national army and local warlords in the Sichuan-Guizhou border area. It suppressed the strength of a regiment, four battalions, a Qingxiang brigade, and [-] regiment training squadrons.

The uprising failed in the end, but from another perspective, it also succeeded.

Because it effectively supported and supported the third crossing of Hongshui, which was going on at that time, and also sowed the fire in the Sichuan-Guizhou border area.

From the establishment of the special branch to the failure of the uprising, the area from Wutongchang to Gujing Township has always been an active area of ​​movement.

At that time, it was also a member of the Su family who was in charge of the work in Wutongchang, named Su Tianjun.

Su Tianjun developed many comrades in the local area, and built a tall earth building on the main road from Gujing Township to Wutongchang, worked on it, and monitored the front and rear.

In the place called "Blue Tile Diaolou" by the locals, looking in the direction of Jiachuan, at the end of the line of sight, there is a chicken feather shop selling bean curd rice.

It was driven by a cousin and sister-in-law of Su Tianjun. From there, he could see the movement of the road coming from the direction of Jiachuan further ahead.

Later that small shop became a contact point and observation post, and the female owner of the chicken feather shop also secretly swore to join the organization and became a comrade.

Because of the one-way connection, after the failure of the uprising, the hostess of the chicken feather shop lost contact with the organization, and since then she has hidden her identity, until she is very old, and she will occasionally talk about those passionate years with her grandson.

This is the background of the story. In this novel called "A Special Party Member", the heroine does not have any great consciousness and ideals.

What she did was only out of love for her husband's uncle.

Joining the organization is only to make the comrades who come and go trust her more, so as to provide them with a safe place where they can communicate with confidence.

The purpose is not lofty, it is entirely because they are afraid that they will go to other places to gather, and they will be easily reported by others, but it will not happen here.

Aside from that special identity, she is actually an ordinary woman who treats people warmly, loves relatives, is kind and thoughtful, has some intelligence, and even has some humor and cunning.

In the writing of that grandson, the story of the hostess of the Douhua Restaurant is not as passionate and impassioned as traditional struggle stories. There should be positive characters in the story, and not all of them are upright.

For example, in the eyes of his cousin, Su Tianjun is a mischievous, daring uncle who caused headaches for the family since he was a child.

But the more she was like this, the more she favored him, but she never gave him a good face. When greeting him, she likes to say "He cut off the head".

For example, those comrades are all hungry ghosts in her eyes. When eating, she will deliberately add an extra spoonful.

Everyone liked it very much, and even named the lump of rice, "Chuan'erjian".

I will watch them gobble it up nervously, if anyone inserts the chopsticks directly into the middle of the bowl to scoop the rice soup.She would quietly go up and pull out the man's chopsticks.

Because Lao Li'er couldn't do that, it looked like going to a grave, she was worried that it would be unlucky.

Meetings in the house at night are not always united and high-spirited like in old movies. They will also quarrel, and even fight violently.

At that time, she would knock on the wall with a rolling pin and yell "Screw, don't bite", making the room suddenly quiet first, and then burst into laughter.

It can be seen from the grandson's article that this special party member has not received the ideological education that party members should have. Her thoughts and behaviors are still what a standard old-fashioned rural woman should be. ".

Her "revolution" was just out of a kind of care, even a kind of sympathy.She just felt that these "hungry people" should not be hungry, but that they and her were "the same kind".

That's it.

This story is different from all the red stories that can be seen at that time, and it has the style of Sima Qian's "Historical Records".

The characters in the story who are supposed to be heroes are full of flaws.

Some are sloppy, some are vulgar, some are violent...

But because of this, it seems so real, so flesh and blood.

And the heroine's jokes and taunts towards comrades are even more real and bloody.

After reading such a unique article, Wei Sheng was speechless for a long time.

How long, haven't seen anything like this?
How long has it been since I saw something so authentic and unadorned? !
How long has it been since you have seen something that praises people instead of God? ! !

"Editor-in-chief? How is it?"

"Xiao Xiao, what do you think is good about it?"

"I also... don't really know what to say. I just feel that this Mrs. Ah Qing is different from the one in the model play."

"Then which one do you think is true?"

Xiao Xingjuan stretched out his finger without hesitation: "Her!"

But then he hesitated: "But let the martyrs appear in such an image in the work, isn't it too...I even think...the many witty remarks of Mrs. Xianglin are really funny..."

"No, that's because you haven't seen the author's real intention." Wei Sheng stood up and walked around the editor's room twice excitedly: "That's not funny, funny is just superficial! The bottom is the truth, Proclaim the truth!"

"The author is telling us why a group has such a great centripetal force and cohesion in that magnificent and earth-changing feat!"

"Why do you get the firm support and support of thousands of ordinary people like this old man!"

"Not everyone has beliefs, doctrines, spirits, and consciousness in their hearts!"

"But they all have an instinct in their hearts! Instinct!"

"The instinct to yearn for equality and light even though you are in the dark and terrifying fog, and you can't even see the direction and way out!"

"This is the root cause of our firm support and our final victory!"

Xiao Xingjuan suddenly felt an electric current go through his whole body from top to bottom!
Yes!This is why this very special party member who has no party education at all chose to stand firmly and bravely with the party at that time!
Because voices seek each other, breaths communicate, and blood blends together!
A group that chooses to be bright, of course, will attract such people to join!
Conversely, such a group that chooses light must be composed of only such people!

This is the original intention of the author!

Wei Sheng had already sat down: "Xiao Xiao, you are very good. You can notice that this article is even more exciting than the last one."

After finishing speaking, he frowned again: "But it's a useless name, why not... think of a new name for it? It should be subtle and guide readers?"

Xiao Xingjuan pondered for a moment: "The original title is indeed a bit straightforward and has lost its aftertaste."

Wei Sheng directly crossed out "A Special Party Member" with a pen and changed it to "Her Belief". Emotions and the highest and brightest beliefs of that era have harmoniously resonated, but... let’s put it this way for now.”

"The second daughter mentioned in the following article, inspired by her mother, also embarked on the road of revolution, joined the Southwest Student Work Team, and even ventured into Datong's bandit den to collect information..."

"Yes." Xiao Xingjuan nodded: "Datong is in Hongshui County, which belongs to Guizhou Province. The second daughter should work in Guizhou Province later."

"As mentioned in the first article, this second daughter later became the director of the District Women's Federation, and most likely she is the director of the Zunzhou District Women's Federation!"

"Editor-in-Chief, I'll call the Guizhou Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles and ask the comrades over there to check it out!"

"If the director of the Women's Federation is really the second daughter in the article, she should know more, at least the authenticity of the first article can be easily confirmed." Wei Sheng nodded: "If there is time, we will Just publish the first article!"

Then he went on to say: "The following novel is just to interpret the uprising from the perspective of a heroine who is not deeply aware. There are many characters and details in it. Looking at the passing light, there is actually a lot of information hidden."

"Xiao Xiao, you may have to work hard, spend more time, and learn about the author's situation by the way, we will try our best to get it in the next issue."

"It's the editor-in-chief, and I'll do my best!" Xiao Xingjuan said with a smile: "With the level of publishing two consecutive issues, at least one must be a member of the Provincial Writers Association, right? He should be an old writer."

"I'll go through the files of the Writers' Association first, and look up the comrades from Jiachuan. It should be easy to find out."

"I'm afraid it's not what you think." Wei Sheng said with a smile: "The older the author, the easier it is to fall into the rules."

"These two articles are not the same. Only new authors who don't have those rules in mind can find such an angle of material, which is refreshing."

"So I'm more inclined..." Wei Sheng tapped the manuscript on his chest with a pen: "Xiao Xiao, we may have found a good seed."

Now Xiao Xingjuan became even more enthusiastic: "I'll check it now!"
