Using an exaggerated technique

"Die Lianhua·A Reply to Li Shuyi" is a poem written by Mao Zedong on May 11, 1957. This poem not only expresses the emotion of mourning, but also expresses Mao Zedong's infinite affection for his wife, martyr Yang Kaihui, and his close comrade, martyr Liu Zhixun. It also expresses the great man's care for the widows of martyrs and old friends. The author uses an artistic technique that combines revolutionary realism and revolutionary romanticism, uses strange and magnificent associations and imaginations, and uses the most refined language and the deepest feelings to express his deep condolences and high respect for the revolutionary martyrs and praise the revolution. The martyrs' unswerving revolutionary sentiments inspired the people to defend the achievements of the revolution and carry the socialist revolution and socialist construction to the end.

Notes

① Dielianhua is the name of the Chinese word card. It is divided into upper and lower columns, with a total of 60 characters. It is generally used to fill in sentimental and lingering content. Since the Song Dynasty, many beautiful poems with "Die Lian Hua" as the lyrics have been produced, such as "Die Lian Hua" written by Liu Yong, Su Shi, Yan Shu and others in the Song Dynasty, which are all enduring masterpieces in the past dynasties. There are also movies and songs named "Butterfly Love Flower"

②Li Shuyi: Born in 1901 in a scholarly family in Hunan. When she was admitted to Fuxiang Girls' High School, she and Yang Kaihui became classmates and friends. Liu Zhixun and Mao Zedong met when they were studying in Changsha, and became close comrades-in-arms when they were engaged in revolutionary activities with the Communist Party of China. Later, with the care and help of Mao Zedong, Yang Kaihui became the "matchmaker". On October 30, 1924, Liu Zhixun and Li Shuyi got married. On May 21, 1927 (the "Ma-Ri Incident" occurred in Changsha that night), Liu Zhixun hurried home and had a meal, said goodbye to his wife and a pair of children, and rushed to the Provincial Farmers Association to host an emergency meeting. Unexpectedly, this A farewell becomes an eternal farewell. Li Shuyi later made a living by teaching and raising her children
