1 19. Returning pears in Mid-Autumn Festival
1948, there was a pear tree in the yard where Zhou Enlai lived in Xibaipo. Pears ripened around the Mid-Autumn Festival. Sometimes when the wind blows off a pear or two, he asks the guards to pick it up and give it to the landlord. Yan Zhongyun, the landlord, deliberately refused to pick fresh pears so that the chief could eat them. Zhou Enlai and the guards began to pick pears, wrap them and give them to the landlord. The landlord said to everyone, "I have never seen such a good * * * in my life."

One, two, be a bricklayer
In Xibaipo, Zhou Enlai learned that the houses of several poor and middle peasants in the village were leaking. When it rained, water could flow to the kang. He organized more than 20 workers to set up a "maintenance team" and went deep into every household to help people repair their houses. While the house was being repaired, Zhou Enlai came. He looked at the house first, then rolled up his sleeves and became a mason. He talked with everyone about his family while working; Ask people if they can eat and sleep well. At lunch, the villagers brought delicious pancakes and scrambled eggs to Zhou Enlai, but Zhou Enlai didn't eat them. Instead, he picked up a tortilla from a nearby basket and ate it.

One, two, one, wheat harvested in summer
1948, in Xibaipo, Zhou Enlai and cadres participated in the summer harvest. He was wearing a faded military uniform, holding a sickle and sweating all over. During the break, he also publicized the revolutionary truth and told everyone revolutionary stories. As long as he comes, there will be laughter in the wheat field. After the wheat is cut, it must be transported to the field. It is more than a mile from the beach to the wheat field. Zhou Enlai saw everyone carrying it, and he also carried a big bag. Everyone saw Zhou Enlai's sweaty clothes sticking to his body, fearing that he was tired, and repeatedly advised him not to carry them. He smiled and said, "Just do some work!" What do you do every day? "

First, second, small things are important.
It was 1950. Zhou Enlai went out for a meeting, and a waiter was very naughty. He made a scene in the Prime Minister's office and broke the glass plate on the coffee table. When the attendant found out, he severely criticized him and planned to transfer him from his post. Zhou Enlai didn't know until he came back. He said to the waiter, "Children are not sensible, so why bother?" . On another occasion, Zhou Enlai took a bus back to the West Flower Hall. It happened that a young waiter came by bike from the shade of the tree and almost collided with his car at the corner. The waiter was in a hurry and pinched the brakes, resulting in people and cars falling to the ground. Zhou Enlai hurried out of the car, stepped forward to help the fallen waiter, and asked him with concern if he was injured. Look around, no problem, and then get back in the car. It was not until a few days later that he remembered it and asked about the waiter.

One, two, three, why the beard?
195 1 In the spring of, Zhou Enlai went to Dalian for recuperation due to illness. In order to let Zhou Enlai move freely and really have a rest, the staff around him suggested that he grow a beard temporarily, so that people would not recognize him. He laughed and said, "I am the prime minister and a public servant of the people. How can we break away from the masses? ! "After coming to Dalian, Zhou Enlai took advantage of this opportunity to visit the hospitals of Lvda University, express condolences to the sick and wounded, visit nearby, go deep into the masses and conduct investigation and study. During his illness, Dalian and Lushun left his footprints everywhere.

124, 10 children
Some people can't understand why Mr. and Mrs. Zhou Enlai have no children or daughters. How can they live such a poor life? What did you leave the money for? 1952, Zhou Enlai met her childhood friend and cousin Gong Zhiru and had a long talk with her. Gong Zhiru once mentioned: "It's a pity that you don't have children." Zhou Enlai immediately replied, "who said no? We have ten! " Said, and stretched out five fingers, doubled, support eyes to deng. Deng Ying Chao nodded with a smile. Zhou Enlai went on to say, "Ten! All descendants of martyrs! Everything is raised and borne by us. " In fact, as far as people know, there are more than a dozen children of martyrs raised by Zhou Enlai and his wife. ! The couple have always regarded these martyrs and orphans as their families.

125. Crowded experience
1954 At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Enlai said to his secretary, "The masses reported that buses in Beijing are very crowded now, and it takes one or two hours to commute. Let's go by bus today to find out the situation. Don't tell the security department. " At the bus stop of Beijing Library, Zhou Enlai and others got on the bus and finally got on the bus. Sure enough, the bus was crowded and there were no empty seats. He took a few steps inside and stood in the middle with a ring in his hand. People looked around in the crowd carelessly. After driving for two or three minutes, a passenger standing opposite him shouted, "Oh dear! Isn't this the prime minister? " "Prime Minister?" "The prime minister? ! "The carriage immediately perked up. People offered their seats in succession, but Zhou Enlai refused to sit down. He waved his arms and urged everyone to sit down. A passenger took his hand and asked, "Premier, you are so busy, why did you come by bus?" Zhou Enlai smiled and replied, "I will experience your life, too." Then, I started a conversation with the passengers and asked their names. Which unit are they from? Where do you live? How long does it take to commute every day? I got off the bus, got on the trolley bus, and walked around Beijing for half a circle. On his return, Zhou Enlai immediately convened relevant leading comrades and held a special meeting to discuss and formulate specific measures to solve the bus congestion problem. He also instructed all departments and relevant units in the State Council to transport workers to and from work by trolleys when conditions permit.

126. Send raincoats at night
1955 Late at night in July, Zhou Enlai was still working nervously when it suddenly rained heavily. In a short time, Deng came to the place where the guards stood guard, with a raincoat in his hand, and said kindly to the soldiers, "The Prime Minister asked me to send you raincoats. Put it on quickly! " Then, Deng said, "The Prime Minister asked me to tell you that it is dangerous to stand guard under the tree when it thunders and rains." The guard soldier took the raincoat, looked at the light in front of the window, looked at the back of Deng leaving in the rain, and tears rolled down.

127, closely related
1955- 1956, serious natural disasters occurred in some areas of Guangxi, and some cadres did not take effective relief measures, and more than 500 people starved to death. After hearing the report on this matter, Zhou Enlai felt extremely sad. He said: "Our national system is superior, because our political power is the people's political power, and our people's government serves the people and must be closely related to the people. It is absolutely not allowed to care about the sufferings of the people, or not to care enough. It makes us angry to hear such a thing. Whether it is local, provincial or county, it is something that should be taken seriously and must be dealt with seriously. "

128, chatting home.
1in April, 956, Zhou Enlai visited Wang Xiulan, a model family member of Angang, after visiting several large factories in Angang. In the evening, when Zhou Enlai came in, he saw Wang Xiulan's lover Lao Yang still sleeping after the night shift. He immediately lowered his voice and turned around to signal the comrades behind him not to speak loudly. Wang Xiulan recognized Zhou Enlai and was too excited to know what to say. She tried to wake Lao Yang, but Zhou Enlai gently stopped her. Zhou Enlai sat on the edge of the kang, drinking boiled water and having a cordial conversation with the workers' families like a family. He found this street very remote, so he asked how far it was from the shop, where to buy needle and thread, and whether it was convenient to drink water. Wang Xiulan said it was convenient, and Zhou Enlai was relieved. At this time, many children outside looked out of the window. Zhou Enlai asked Wang Xiulan if he had any children. The king replied that there was no. Zhou Enlai said, "You know, I don't have children either. There are our children outside. We must cultivate the descendants of the revolution. " And said: "Your street cadres have a hard time doing the work of thousands of families. I want to learn from you. " They talked cordially for over an hour. A year later, the responsible comrades of the provincial party Committee went to Beijing for a meeting. Zhou Enlai asked again, "I heard that Wang Xiulan of Angang is ill. Please say hello to her for me. Is there any difficulty? "

Visiting workers
1956 On a sunny Sunday in May, Zhou Enlai came to the workers' dormitory of Shijingshan Iron and Steel Plant, which was the only four-row bungalow on the hillside. Zhou Enlai first came to the home of an assembler in a power plant. The young couple happily welcomed Zhou Enlai into the house. Zhou Enlai sat by the bed and chatted with them. I heard that the young man was studying in an amateur school, so I took the textbook and asked him which lesson he had studied. "I'm learning from Zhan Tianyou." The young man replied. "Oh, this is our great engineer in China." Zhou Enlai said with a smile. I also checked the young man's homework, praised him for his good study and encouraged him to study hard. Then, Zhou Enlai visited the home of an amateur teacher. When he was going to visit an old worker's house, he heard that the old worker was working night shift and sleeping. He quickly waved his hand and said softly, "Don't bother, don't bother, let him have a good rest." "Premier Zhou has come to the casting village!" The news soon spread throughout the small workers' village, and people put down their work and flew to visit Zhou Enlai. How they wish he could stay a little longer.
However, the sun is setting and he is leaving. The workers reluctantly saw me off. Zhou Enlai leaned forward, picked up the nearest child and smiled kindly.

130, try to cool down.
1July, 956, Zhou Enlai braved the heat to go to Shanghai for investigation and study. When he went deep into the converter workshop of a steel plant to observe the production situation, he saw that the workers in front of the furnace were sweating and steaming, so he asked the person in charge of the workshop with great concern: "How high is the temperature in the workshop?" Answer: "More than forty degrees." Zhou Enlai immediately questioned: "I have been to the tropics in summer, where the temperature is over 40 degrees, but it is far less hot than you." He immediately instructed: to care about the sufferings of workers, improve production conditions, and do a good job in heatstroke prevention and cooling in summer. Shortly after Zhou Enlai returned to Beijing, the State Council issued an urgent notice to the whole country, demanding that industrial enterprises must do a good job in heatstroke prevention and cooling, and urging all localities to do this work quickly. The heatstroke prevention and cooling work of factories and enterprises all over the country has been rapidly improved and strengthened.
