What is the real reason why Deng Xiaoping never returned to his hometown?
Deng Xiaoping is the core leader of the second generation of the Communist Party of China, a Marxist, a proletarian revolutionist, a statesman, a strategist, and a diplomat. He is also the leader of the Chinese People's Liberation Army and the Communist Party of China. *One of the main leaders of the Republic of China. So, what was the real reason why Deng Xiaoping never returned to his hometown?
Reason 1. Deng Xiaoping was too busy. After Xiaoping took charge of the daily work of the Central Committee in the mid-1950s, he had to manage all kinds of affairs of the party, government and military. After the reform and opening up, the country has more things to consider. I can't get out of my way, and even if I want to go home, I feel powerless.
Reason 2: Maomao said in the book "My Father Deng Xiaoping": "My father won't go home himself, and we won't be allowed to go back." He said that as soon as we return, we will mobilize troops and harass the place. ?Comrade Xiaoping has always opposed the cult of personality and opposed the feudal society's return to hometown in fine clothes. He did not want to harass his hometown, which was not wealthy. Deng Xiaoping's eldest daughter Deng Lin also supported this statement: "My father said that it would be too troublesome to come back to you to do this and that." In fact, Xiaoping wanted to go home. In 1986, when he met his uncle Yao Dan Yixing in Chengdu after 67 years of absence, he said: Flowers bloom again, and people are no longer young; the beautiful memories of childhood are just memories. Old man Dan asked him why he didn't go back to his hometown. Deng Xiaoping said, "I remember when I left home, Guang'an had a population of only 600,000. Now it has more than 1 million people. I can't afford to be alarmed!" Deng Xiaoping thought about problems more deeply than ordinary people. . He did not return to Guang'an because he loved Guang'an. Do you think, back then, Guang'an's economy was relatively backward, how would the province treat Guang'an if he wanted to go back or kept mentioning his hometown?
The third reason is that transportation home is too difficult. Before the expressway was connected, it took a day to get from Guang'an to Chongqing, the nearest big city. Moreover, the road conditions were poor, and the old man was in poor health, so his wish to go home never came true.
Reason 4: Speculations from people in Deng Xiaoping’s hometown: We Guang’an people also feel very sorry for this. He has never returned to his hometown, and few people in Guang’an have seen him. I heard from the old people in my hometown that Deng Xiaoping's zodiac sign is "Dragon". He traveled from Guang'an via the Qujiang River to the Jialing River and then to the Yangtze River and entered the sea. "Dragon" will never look back when he returns to the sea, so he cannot return to this home. But this is just a legend. ?
Reason 5. A rather bizarre theory: It is said that Deng Xiaoping’s grandmother Dai helped a Feng Shui master when she was still alive. In order to repay his grandmother, the Feng Shui master lived not far from Deng’s house. She chose a cemetery for her family in Foshou Mountain, which would allow the Deng family to produce a big shot, but the big shot could not go home.
Reason six: Deng Xiaoping’s failure to come back is related to the fact that the village where he was born changed its name three times. Deng Xiaoping's hometown village is called Paifang Village. In 1956, after he was elected as the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China at the First Plenary Session of the Eighth Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the local people renamed Paifang Village "Great Brigade". After the "Anti-Revisionist Brigade" broke out, the rebels changed the village into an "anti-revisionist brigade". After "" was over, it was changed back to Arch Village. The name of the village changed with the ups and downs of Deng Xiaoping's political career. Deng Xiaoping may not be willing to return to Paifang Village because of this.
Reason 7. There is a saying, and it is said to have been strictly verified---Deng Xiaoping was not from Guang'an. He was originally from Huangxuzhen, Deyang, Sichuan. When he was about 6 years old, he went to Guang'an with his parents. In order to win the title of Deng Xiaoping's hometown, the Huangxu Town Government has submitted letters to the central government many times, but has not been accepted.
Reason 8. There is another saying: During the liberation, Comrade Xiaoping’s ancestral house was all given to the villagers, and his relatives did not leave a single house. After Comrade Xiaoping returned, he had no place to live and did not want to disturb the people, so he did not go back.
Reason 9. Deng Xiaoping once said to Mr. Jin Yong: I will not go back. The blogger thinks this may be one of the main reasons why Deng Xiaoping did not return to his hometown. Comrade Xiaoping always moves forward and never looks back. This is such a great courage.
Reason 10. Deng Xiaoping had a very touching saying: "I am the son of the Chinese people, and I love my motherland and people deeply."
?Later someone interpreted that deep in Deng Xiaoping's heart were his passionate feelings for the motherland and its people, which of course also included his love for his hometown Guang'an. The blogger believes that this is the real reason why the great Deng Xiaoping did not return to his hometown.
