He is the most intense warrior, but has the softest heart

Wen Yiduo (1899-1946)

The famous oil painter and 91 -year -old Wen Lipeng have held countless exhibitions in his life, but exhibited his paintings with his father Wen Yiduo's artistic works, which was the first time.

People who are familiar with Yidi as poets, scholars, and democratic fighters, but they understand their artistic talents, knowing not many people who have taught in art in the United States to study art and teach Chinese before returning to Chinese; The design of the book cover is the seal engraved by Wu Yan, Hua Luogeng, and Zhu Ziqing, and he is on the road to the west of the Southwest.

Family book

"You don’t know that a man is a mother, and it is softer than a woman's heart."

"This week, it is really difficult to be for me! Be a master at home, a wife, a father, and a mother. The younger brother closed his mouth, and when he came to my side, the big girl was not polite, her heart was straightforward, her heart was fast, and her heart was fast. The little girl lost her temper at night. You know that there is something in her heart, and I won't say it! In the family, the sound of a cannon in the ear, the sound of the plane, remind you how much you dare not think about what you dare not think about it. There is no thought in making an article, no thoughts in reading, and no thoughts ... You don't know that a man is a mother, which is softer than a woman's heart. "

On July 15, 1937, a week after the Luogou Bridge Incident broke out, Wen Yiduo sighed in the letter to his wife Gao Xiaozhen.

Half a month ago, Gao Xiaozhen took the eldest son Wen Lihe and the second son Wen Li back to his hometown in Hubei. Wen Yiduo and three younger children stayed at the home of Peiping Tsinghua Garden. The "little brother" in the letter is Wen Lipeng, who is Wen Yiduo.

The peaceful life was broken by the invaders' artillery fire. Three days later, Wen Yiduo took his children and maid Zhao Ma to rush south to flee south, and he was quite embarrassed all the way. At the age of 6, Wen Lipeng did not understand the tension of adults. It was left to the depths of the memory by the children's eyes. After they fled to Nanjing, they took the boat to Wuhan and "saw the big ship."

In Wuhan, Wen Yiduo reunited with his family not long. He left home alone in October of the same year and went to Changsha to serve as a professor at Changsha Temporary University. Since then, in the past year, he has separated from the two places with his wife and children, and he can only use a book of Fengjiashu to talk.

"Family books reached thousands of money." Wen Yiduo was a loved family. He often left the house and looked forward to the letter from his loved ones. When studying in the United States, he wrote several times and complained that there were too few letters from his family, and asked his brother in a straightforward manner, "Why don't you write a letter for a long time?" Asked his sister, "Why don't you write more good faith?" Ask his parents and his wife, "I don't know if I have a good family book in the month of studying abroad!"

At the end of the first year of the United States, Wen Liying, the first child and daughter of Wen Yiduo, was born. The family did not inform Wen Yiduo in time, which made him very dissatisfied. He wrote to his parents and said, "Filial Zhen gave birth, and there was no faith in the family. Only the last time my father was decorated with a few small characters on the corner of the stationery. This is over. If you have a boy, it is worth it for a telegram? I always talk about it, I have a daughter, just like my wish, I am very proud. This example ... My hope and happiness will be here in the future. "

Unfortunately, 4 years later, Wen Liying died early due to illness.

The poet always said straightforwardly that he never expressed his emotions to his wife and children, and the eagerness almost came.

Wen Yiduo and Sanzi Wen Lipeng and the eldest daughter are famous (about 1939)

On October 23, 1937, Wen Yiduo arrived in Changsha late at night. He immediately wrote to his wife and cared about the five children at home.

On October 26, he wrote a letter to his wife and complained that he had not received a letter of home for almost a week. "What is the little sister's illness? I think about it day and night. Crane carvings can write to the crane carving, and the younger brother can also draw pictures and write. Why not send me a look?"

On October 27, another book was repaired.

On November 1, 4 days later, I wrote to my wife again, "I begged you to let me a letter now. Please pity my heart or not."

On November 2nd, before sending a new letter, he received a letter from his wife and the eldest son, as well as the paintings of the young son Wen Lipeng and his eldest daughter. Back to his wife: "You won't write a letter, I really died in a hurry. You can see how I wrote a few times. Everything in the home, no matter the size, or what you think in your heart, you can tell me. The more detailed and better. "He also wrote a separate letter to the 10 -year -old Wen Lihe and 9 -year -old Wen Li.

Wen Lipeng, who became a painter in the future, couldn't remember what he drew in a letter to his father when he was a child. He smiled and said, "What will a child of six or seven -year -olds draw?" But this young child’s "Robbing randomly" is exactly what Wen Yiduo has repeatedly asked for and cherished.

Wen Yiduo's work "Chonganjiang Chain Bridge" (March 24, 1938)

Each letter of the children was solemnly treated by his father. He praised the eldest son Lihe's letter well, showed it to his friends, and made a circle of praise. He blame the second son, and he doesn't write much more. "As soon as I went out, did you forget me?" The sons have written more smoothly than before, and the handwriting is more neat. Eat a bowl of rice "! Also praised- "Has your letter of letters have changed? How can it be good!"

Wen Yiduo is the kind of father who is not easily denied his child. He is very concerned about the health and studies of his children, and often ask his children to study. Although he has always worried that his second son's homework is not good, he specially emphasizes his wife's letter: "Gaoer is playing with great heart and a good temper, but it is by no means abolished. Materials, do not scold when they are encountered in the event of an incident. This is the case for Peng's famous daughter. "" He is a loving father, has a good temper, and almost never loses his temper. . "Wen Lipeng said.

For children, I smell more patience and tenderness.

Wen Yiduo's family took a group photo in front of the house in Kunming, Yunnan. From the left, the three sons Wen Lipeng, Wen Yiduo, the eldest son Wen Lihe, his wife Gao Xiaoying, and the younger daughter Wen Huiyu (because the correct writing method of his name failed to display it normally, please refer to "Xinhua Daily Telecom" electronic version or paper version), the big daughter, the famous daughter, Zhao Ma (old nanny), and Erzi Wenli.

In February 1938, the war approached Hunan, and Changsha Lin Da moved to Kunming again. Wen Yiduo participated in the "Hunan, Guizhou and Yunnan Tour" composed of nearly 300 students, and went to Kunming 3,000 miles.

Before departure, he mentioned in the book when he left home with his children when he left home last time: "When they were acting that day, they all fell asleep. When I got up, I didn't see me, I was disappointed, so I woke them up one by one, told him that I was gone, and told him to sleep again. But I called the younger brother. So the big girl didn't call, I couldn't call ... I went out of my life, and now I am not a child.

When I read the old age, every time I read this letter, Wen Lipeng would be sour. He couldn't remember the picture that his father was awakened by his father in his sleep, he couldn't remember his father's speech, and he couldn't remember what he said ... Fortunately, there was a family book, and the affection of this young child was ignored. The permanent love for children is deep.

Back

"When I wake up at night, I saw my father still wearing clothes, bowing back, and sitting in front of the table and engraved."

At the end of August 1938, Wen Yiduo finally managed to pick up his family to Kunming. Since then, their family has lived in Kunming for 8 years.

For the city of Kunming, Wen Lipeng has complex emotions. There, there was a period of time with his father with his father, and his most precious childhood memory, but he lost his father.

"The most impressive picture is the back of my father." Wen Lipeng said, "At that time, the conditions were difficult. A house was not only my father's study, guest room, but also squeezed me and my sister's bed, and my parents' bed. . Sometimes when I woke up at night, I saw that my father was still wearing clothes, bowing back, and sitting at the table and engraving. "

In 1944, Wen Yiduo began to be listed.

During the war, prices soared, and the family had a lot of people. The monthly salary of Wen Yiduo was enough to barely support the family for about 10 days. Book clothes have been sold out. He went to class outside the school, wrote articles, and reported reports. In order to save charcoal fire, he took the family with a high and low family to wash his face by his family in the lunar month ... Think of the family, the family was still in a break. Survey. It was not until Wen Yiduo's suggestion to be publicly listed under the suggestion of friends, engraving people, and becoming a "handicraft worker" that the situation in the family improved.

Lessons, books, meetings, speeches, devoted himself to the democratic movement, and governed the seal for supporting the family ... Wen Yiduo's face became thinner, and hard cocoons were grinded on his fingers, but in the most laborious days, he was still almost the same. Father who never get angry with children.

Wen Lipeng remembers that one time, the second brother Wen Lijiao took a piece of sodium from the school, put it in the water teapot of water, and tried to create hydrogen according to the principle of sodium taught in the classroom to produce hydrogen. Caused the explosion and hurt the big girl.

"The second brother was in trouble, and we were all frightened. I didn't expect my father to blame us. I just used this to tell the truth. What happened. "Wen Lipeng said.

Wen Yiduo will solemnly treat the letter of young children, and will also solemnly listen to the children's opinions.

Once, Wen Huiyu, who Wen Yiduo's younger daughter (because of the correct writing of his name, failed to display normally, please refer to the electronic or paper version of "Xinhua Daily Telecom") at home. Wen Yiguo, who was working, hit his daughter twice, but was carved by his son Wen Li: "You usually talk about democracy every day, how can you do it at home! What is this democracy?"

"I'm wrong today." Wen Yiduo admitted his mistakes to your children. "I hope you don't treat your children in the future."

In 1945, inflation was severe, and Wen Yiduo increased the cost of treating the seal. Wen Yiduo has been silent for a long time and said, "Lihe, I will remember it for a lifetime."

Later, some people often asked Yi's children, how did Wen Yiduo educate children?

"In fact, he hasn't so -called educating me." Wen Lipeng said. He refers to the kind of teachings of hand, or "what should you do" with a head -up face. In Wen Lipeng's impression, my father never mentioned how much and expectations for their brothers and sisters. Except in the letter to my brothers, I said, "Be sure to put the Chinese background. It is always a little stronger than the average person in Chinese. " Wen Lijiao also wrote in the article that his father was educating in daily life. He taught more than words, and he was more influential and subtly to instill. "For example, he asked each of our children to read well, and as long as he had nothing else, he put down the chopsticks and sat in front of the desk. With his influence, we naturally have formed the habit of reading writing. "

As a country, to be a home. Needless to say too much, he only needs to do his own thing. The back of his walking ahead is the guidance to the children.

After the surrender of Japan, shaved away the long -lasting Wen Yiduo

Father and son

Wen Yiduo did not set up any family training before his lifetime, but the Wen family had a common spleen and self -evident criterion.

After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Southwest United University announced that it was over, and teachers and students returned to Pingjin in batches.

The air ticket was tight. Wen Lipeng and the second brother Wen Liao followed the arrangement of the family. They flew to Chongqing first, waiting for the meeting with the family, and then returned to Beiping together.

On June 29, 1946, Wen Yiduo wrote to the two sons in your busy schedule, saying "I am particularly busy these days, and half of them must be done earlier to finish what should be handled early in order Do you buy. Did you buy your younger brother's leather shoes? If you do n’t buy it, you should buy it early because Peiping is more expensive. "

"In Kunming, my sister and I have never wore leather shoes. I have been wearing cloth shoes made by my mother. My father knows that Chongqing's pig skin is cheap, so I remind it." Wen Lipeng explained. The busy father was as meticulous as ever, and even such a small thing was concerned.

No one expected, this would be the last book of Wen Yiduo.

Half a month later, on July 15th, Wen Yiduo filmed the case at the Li Gongpu memorial service. Ready to step into the door! "

On the afternoon of the same day, he was killed by the Kuomintang agents on his way home. The eldest son, the eldest son of his peers, tried to protect his father on Wen Yiduo.

Wen Lipeng's "Wen Yiduo Portrait Painting -Sacrifice"

This year, Wen Lipeng was 15 years old.

After returning to Beiping, Wen Lipeng entered Peiping No. 4 Middle School to continue reading. On the opposite side of the seat was two Kuomintang Gao Qian children who took jeep and played pistols in class. He was unwilling to stay in the Fourth Middle School. In 1947, he carried his mother's dress and went to the Joint and Liberation Zone of Jin, Hebei, and entered the Department of Fine Arts of the North University to study.

Wen Yiduo longed for the liberation area during his lifetime, and said that he would send the children to the study there in the future.

"Because I am a son of Wen Yiduo, the teacher and classmate treat me very well. I am the smallest in the class. Everyone calls me 'little brother' and takes care of me. When sleeping, several students helped me spread straw. They On one side, let me sleep in. "Wen Lipeng recalled.

"Everyone treats me another look, contains very deep feelings, making me feel that as a" Wen Yiduo son ", it has a heavier weight." In the liberated area, Wen Lipeng used different for the first time with different use. When his son looked at his father's gaze and watched it, he began to understand his father's identity more deeply, and continued to deepen his father's understanding on his father on the long road of life.

Wen Yiduo did not set any family training for his children during his lifetime, but the brothers and sisters of Wen family seemed to have a common spleen and self -evident criterion.

"Be a real person, be a real person, a capital person." Wen Lipeng put the stress on the word "people", "always firmly believes in truth and justice, move closer to good, and learn."

In 1965, Wen Lipeng, who was the teacher of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and colleagues, and colleagues, put forward different opinions on the abolition of the model system issued by the Ministry of Culture at that time, and obtained Mao Zedong's instructions: "Painting men, women, and children naked Model was the basic skills for painting and sculpture. , Don't, feudal thought, prohibit, it is inappropriate. "

Wen Lipeng was detained for 75 days. He said to the person who came to catch him with a bust, you caught the wrong, and one day he would put me back in person in the future. "Later that's it." Wen Lipeng said.

In the "Cultural Revolution", Wen Lipeng was released on the farm, and poems showed his heart: "One night's tight north wind, thousands of miles of autumn and moon.

Wen Lipeng's creation of Wen Yiduo

Red candle

How to describe Wen Yiguo's personality? Wen Lipeng mentioned Zhu Ziqing's sentence: "Mr. Wen is really a fire."

Since I was young, I picked up the brush, and Wen Lipeng wanted to draw his father. After more than 30 years, he finally completed the classic work "Red Candle" about Wen Yiduo in 1979.

When he conceived this painting in 1978, Wen Lipeng was just 47 years old when his father died. Since then, every spring and autumn, he is older than his father.

On the picture, a red candle burned in the fire, and he heard a lot of sip of smoke and looked back.

Wen Yiduo personally designed "Red Candle" cover

The image of the red candle comes from the preface of the first poem "Red Candle" by Wen Yiduo.

Red candle!

Your heart is hot,

It was the day when tears began.

Native

Red candle!You shed a tear, and the gray was full of heart.

Tears of tears in your fruit,

Create light your cause.

Red candle!

"Mo Wen gains, but ask the cultivation."

After experiencing storms, I have a deeper understanding of life. Wen Lipeng reads "The Complete Works of Wen Yiduo", repeatedly chanting his father's verse, and gradually regarded the red candle as a symbol of Wen Yiduo's personality.

For his father, Wen Lipeng most hopes that people value people is more than its unique personality.

"His contribution in literature, academics, and art is of course important, but it is not as touching as personality, and there are many achievements in art, literature, and academics.At the spiritual level, he has something more unique and more concerned about. "Wen Lipeng said.
