In our country, there have been many tombstones of unknown martyrs, who gave their lives to defend their country, but left no names. Many people can't see the past, but they choose to keep the tomb for the sake of being undisturbed after the death of these martyrs. Because of the establishment of New China and the developed information, many tombs of unknown martyrs are claimed now, just to reassure those who are willing to guard the tombs.
But in Shandong, there is also a tomb of an unknown soldier, which has not been recognized for a long time. The grave keeper of this tomb kept the tomb for 74 years for the promise of that year. It was not until he was 92 years old that the descendants of this martyr finally came. Commitment is commitment! A 92-year-old man from Shandong has been guarding the tomb of the unknown hero for 74 years. At the age of 92, he finally met someone.
The grave keeper is Niu Qing Yu. When Niu Qing Yu was a child, the Japanese invaded the village where he lived. At that time, there happened to be many Eighth Route Army in the village, all of which were injured. The Japanese army kept patrolling, and the village name was worried that the Eighth Route Army would be discovered. So is Niu, because there is an injured Eighth Route Army in his family, Niu Jiao and Lao Zhang. Later, Lao Zhang died unfortunately because of his aggravated injuries.
After the Japanese left, the Eighth Route Army also sent people to take over the wounded, and Lao Zhang's brother was among those who took over the wounded. Lao Zhang couldn't help crying when he saw his brother's body. Unfortunately, the front was very tight. Even if he is so sad, Lao Zhang's brother will continue to go to the battlefield, and there is no way to take his brother's body away.
At this time, Lao Zhang's brother asked Niu Qing Yu to watch his brother first. When there is no war in the future, he will definitely come and take the body away. Niu Qing Yu listened to Lao Zhang's brother before he left. After our constant struggle, the Japanese army finally retreated.
Soon, the new China was founded, and the domestic situation was almost stable. However, Niu Qing Yu didn't wait until Lao Zhang's brother arrived. After many years, Lao Zhang's brother still didn't come to collect the body, but Niu Qing Yu insisted on guarding Lao Zhang's grave. Niu Qing Yu thinks Lao Zhang's brother won't forget to take his brother's body. Most likely, he also died on the battlefield.
Qing Yu, the cow behind him, is getting older and older. He is worried that after his death, Lao Zhang's grave will be left unattended. So, at the age of 92, Qing Yu, a cow who kept the grave for 74 years, decided to look for the descendants of Lao Zhang. Finally, with the help of the local government, Niu Qing Yu finally found Lao Zhang's collateral relatives.
It is understood that when the Lao Zhang brothers went out to war, they were actually not married, so they left no descendants. Fortunately, they still have relatives to take away. In this way, with the help of the government, Lao Zhang's body found a home. After 74 years of guarding the tomb, the cow, who has long been inconvenient to move, finally waited for someone to come, and finally he could rest assured.
Niu Qing Yu proved this idiom all his life. Perhaps in modern times, many people can't understand Niu Qing Yu's idea. How can a person spend his whole life guarding the tomb because of a promise? But maybe this is the loveliness of people in those days. It is because of these lovely and brave people that we can have our present life. Without them, there would be no country, let alone a happy and beautiful life.
