Xiaochagou Village is 5km away from Qingshizui.
In this small village, there are two caves dwelling ever
lived by Chairman Mao in the Long March. |
|
|
Entering Mr. Zhang's yard, there are two cave dwellings.
|
The left one was ever lived by Mao after the Qingshizui
Triumph in 1930s. |
|
|
70 years later, the cave retreated more than 3m because
of the wind and rain erosion.The shabby gate hasn't been
not changed. We could imagine that in the Long March,
the living condition of the Red Army was so hard. As for
us, we are living in big house, however, we often complain
about our life. We decide to tell our classmates what
we have seen today.
|
The man who shows way to us-Mr. Wang firstly lights
the candle on the table when entering the cave and kowtows
three times to the portrait of Chairman Mao. We are shocked!
Chinese people only kowtow to their parents or some gods,
however, in their opinion, Mao is like their father, who
has brought happy life to them. |

|
The old woman in the picture is the hostess of the cave-Ms.
Wang Yan-hua who was dead.
|
Her son-Mr. Zhang Xi-jun tells us that the local government
ever gave them RMB 80,000 to move their house. However,
his mother asked him to live here for generations and
protect the cave that Chairman Mao ever lived in. |

|
This black cabinet was used by Chairman Mao for writing
instructions of documents. |
At the end of our interview, we take photo with local
villagers.It is nearly dark and snowing harder. |
