学薇的母亲吴立洁

学薇序言

我的母亲吴立洁(1907-2005)出生于清朝末年,她历经了国民党统治时期和新中国时期,见证亲历了一段不寻常历史。母亲的一生在富裕与贫穷两个落差极大的生活中度过。

她曾经是个富家小姐。在红军路过川北时逃过难,在抗日战争中躲避过飞机轰炸。她经历过解放后阶级斗争的急风暴雨。改革开放后,她漂洋过海又看到外部的世界。母亲九十四年的人生经历,是中国近百年来历史的写照。

母亲育有六个儿女,孙辈、重孙共二十余人。她年轻丧夫,一生饱经风霜,为儿孙辈耗尽精力,是一位善良、仁慈、勤劳、美丽的伟大母亲。

我记录下母亲平凡、善良、伟大,给亲人们留作纪念。让母亲身上折射出的人性和历史,给后辈留下她这份不寻常的财富。

PREFACE by Wei

My mother Lijie Wu(1907 – 2005) was born at the end of the Qing Dynasty. She had lived through the nationalist and the communist. She had a life of great disparity between wealth and poverty, tranquility and turmoil.

She grew up in a rich family. She escaped hardship when the Red Army passed through northern Sichuan and avoided Japanese bombing during War II. She has experienced the violent storms of “class struggle” under Mao.

After China’s “reform” and reopening up, her family recovered and stabilized. She had also traveled overseas and had a taste of the western world. Mother’s 94 years of life experience is a portrayal of China’s history in the past century.

I wrote my recollections of my mother and hope the humanity and history reflected in her life will be a lasting souvenir for future generations of our family.
