In 1958, a rural girl received a fountain pen from Khrushchev, which changed the rest of her life

preface

In 1958, when Khrushchev visited the Summer Palace, he saw a little girl who was very good-looking. He went over to say hello, and gave the little girl a pen as he left. Unexpectedly, it was such an ordinary meeting that changed the girl's subsequent life.

The girl became famous because of Khrushchev

One day in September 1958, translators and other staff accompanied Khrushchev, general secretary of the CPSU, who had been invited to visit China, to visit the Summer Palace. When the group walked to the shore of Kunming Lake and enjoyed the surrounding scenery, Khrushchev was suddenly attracted by the image of a young man in his early 30s and a girl about 12 years old playing on the stone boat.

In Khrushchev's opinion, the girl was beautiful, like a blooming hibiscus flower. The girl's name is "Feng Lirong", a native of Xinhua, Hunan. The man was her older brother who worked as a translator at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Feng Lirong came to Beijing with her mother to visit her brother this time. When my brother saw that his sister had finally come to Beijing, he took her to visit the Summer Palace. Bong Lirong was very curious about what she saw, and she was bouncing around her brother, very cheerful.

At this time, Khrushchev walked over. He first greeted Bong Ri-rong's brother, then leaned down and touched the girl's head, and then he asked where the brother and sister lived. Feng Lirong's brother answered truthfully, in a large ravine in the northwest of Hunan.

When Khrushchev heard the interpreter, he regretted that it was too far for him to go, and he hoped that the brother and sister would write down their home addresses and write to them later. After thinking about it for a while, Bong Ri Rong's brother took out a pen and wrote down his home address and sister's name.

Khrushchev took the note and handed it to his entourage. Then, he took a Parker pen out of his pocket and handed it to Bong Ri Rong. Khrushchev smiled and said: "Shall we make friends?" This is my little gift to you. Khrushchev also encouraged Bong Lirong to study hard and go to university in the USSR after finishing high school!

What Bong Lirong didn't expect was that not long after she returned to her hometown, she received a package and letter from the Soviet Union. The letter was written in the name of Khrushchev. The letter said that the clever and clever little pear Rong left a deep impression on him, and he liked this little angel who was far away from thousands of mountains and rivers. I hope that Xiao Lirong will study hard, grow up quickly, and become a pillar of national construction!

When Bong opened the package, there was a delicate stationery box, pens, pencils and a "polar bear" toy.

At this moment, the news that Feng Lirong received a gift from Khrushchev, the general secretary of the Soviet Union, spread far and wide, and soon spread all over the country. Suddenly, Bong Ri Rong became a national news figure!

Later, Khrushchev and several of his sons and daughters wrote letters and gifts to Bong Lirong. They have always been concerned about the growth of Bong Li-chan in the Soviet Union. As Bong Ri Rong became more famous, her mother smelled the "benefits" in it.

She feels that her daughter is not an ordinary person, and she will definitely be able to study abroad in the future, not comparable to the "hillbillies" around her. So, she began to intervene in her daughter's contact with the boys around her, for fear that the swan meat would be eaten by the toad!

In this way, it is bitter to grow up with Feng Lirong's childhood sweetheart - Luo Luqing. Luo Luqing was raised by his grandmother, and his grandmother and Feng Lirong were neighbors. The two have been inseparable since childhood, and the parents of both sides see it in their eyes, and no one will stop them. When I was a child, Luo's grandmother often teased Feng Lirong: "Be my granddaughter-in-law when I grow up!" Bong Lirong was always embarrassed to run away when she heard this.

In 1959, Luo Luqing left his grandmother and returned to his parents. He misses Feng Lirong day and night, and he often saves up the change given to him by his parents and buys study materials to send to Feng Lirong. And Feng Lirong also wants Luo Luqing, and she will write a letter every other week.

In August 1961, Luo Luqing, who had been working in the automobile maintenance factory of the Transportation Bureau for more than a year, went to visit his grandmother's house. He immediately thought of Feng Lirong and went to Feng's house for a special trip. At this moment, Feng Lirong has transformed into a slim girl. After she saw Luo Luqing, she burst into tears with excitement.

Seeing this, Feng's mother could only use the excuse to support her daughter. Who knew that the two had already made an appointment to meet at a meeting place, and immediately vowed to be together in the future. Feng Lirong reassured Luo Luqing that even if she really went abroad one day, that Ai Luo's heart would never change.

When parting, Feng Lirong gave Luo Luqing a "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Bag" that she had sewn by herself......

Under the influence of Khrushchev, Bong Lirong's situation became more and more embarrassing

The Feng family never expected that when they were glad to have a relationship with Khrushchev, disaster quietly befell them. In the 60s, Sino-Soviet relations began to break down. Bong Ri-rong's mother was smart enough to sense that something was wrong.

In order to let her daughter Feng Lirong escape this catastrophe, she thought of Luo Luqing, who was a soldier in the army at this time. She knew that the wife of the soldier was something that ordinary people would not dare to touch. So, she hurriedly urged her daughter to write a letter to Luo Luqing.

Just when Feng Lirong's family was doing everything possible to find a way out for their daughter, the "storm" came. First of all, the Commune cadres approached the Fengjia family and told them to hurry up and hand over all the letters and things given by Khrushchev.

In school, Bong Ri Rong became the object of criticism. Later, she was kicked out of school, and she could only honestly work in the production team and accept labor reform.

Just when Feng Lirong felt physically and mentally exhausted, Luo Luqing received a letter written to him by Feng Lirong. In the letter, Bong said that her mother had promised that the two could get married. Luo Luqing was very happy. But he was just 19 years old at the time, and he had only been a soldier for 2 years, so according to the regulations, he could not go home and get married.

Luo Luqing was very helpless, so she had to secretly write a long letter to Feng Lirong, asking her to wait for another 2 years. When his military service expired, he went home and married Bong Ri Rong. After reading the letter, Feng Lirong decided to follow Luo Luqing's wishes.

But Feng's mother couldn't bear it for a day, and she had to marry her daughter immediately. Feng Lirong also knew that her mother had good intentions, so that her daughter could have a place to stay during sports.

Later, under the persecution of Feng's mother, Feng Lirong sent 4 more urgent letters to Luo Luqing. I never thought that the 4 letters were like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no news. Feng Lirong wondered in her heart, could it be that Luo Luqing had an accident? Or did he change his mind for fear of affecting his future?

In fact, Luo Luqing was no longer in the company at that time. Due to the tense relations between China and the Soviet Union, in order to prevent the Soviet invasion, the troops carried out a large-scale military training. During this period, many soldiers contracted dysentery, malaria and other diseases, and Luo Luqing was one of them. He stayed in the hospital for more than 80 days, and he thought that sending a letter of comfort to Bong Ri Rong would stabilize Bong Ri Rong's anxious heart.

But when he returned to the army, he received 5 letters at once, 4 from Feng Lirong and 1 from his grandmother. In her grandmother's letter, Luo Luqing learned that Feng Lirong had been forced by her mother to get married. After reading the letter, Luo Luqing cried a lot.

It turned out that after Feng Lirong sent 4 letters to Luo Luqing, she never received a reply. Her mother told her that Luo Luqing's kid was afraid that she would affect his future, so he had already hidden. After hearing this, Feng Lirong was in pain. Eventually, she complied with her mother's arrangement, and one day in May 1964, she married a farmer in a big ravine.

The farmer has strong roots, and he has been a poor peasant for generations, and in that era, he can more or less bless Feng Licheng. After Feng Lirong got married, her bad luck still hasn't gotten rid of her. In the special era, Feng Lirong's situation is even more difficult.

In 1965, after Luo Luqing was demobilized, he knew that Feng Lirong was married, but he still made a special trip to Feng's house to visit her. When she learned that the farmer was very good to her, Luo Luqing's heart calmed down a little. He encouraged Bong Ri Rong to get through no matter what happens in the future. Believe that "after a heavy rain, there is a sunny day".

But Luo Luqing didn't expect that this meeting would be their farewell. In September 1969, Bong Ri Rong died of illness. At that time, Luo Luqing didn't know the news. It wasn't until the spring of 1972 that he met an acquaintance in his grandmother's hometown and asked him about Feng Lirong's current situation, and he learned that Feng Lirong had already passed away.

Later, although Luo Luqing got married and had children, he always hung the "Mandarin Duck Butterfly Bag" that Feng Lirong gave him many years ago.
