There are too many labels on Zhou Youguang: the brother-in-law of writer Shen Congwen, the husband of talented woman Zhang Yunhe, an economist and a linguist. Zhou Youguang lived other people's lives all his life. His life is divided into several stages: before the age of 50, he was a banker; 50 to 85 years old, a linguist, devoted his energy to the field of language and literature; After 85, he was a thinker.
In 2005, at the age of 65,438+0,000, Zhou Youguang proposed "lifelong education and self-study at the age of 100". From paying attention to language to learning everything in the world, he refined and told the insights of a century, which is undoubtedly more thorough. 100 years old, published a century-old new draft; 65,438+004 years old, published by Wen Chao Daoji; Published Shell Collection at the age of 65,438+005; At the age of 65,438+008, Zhou Youguang's Collected Works was published; 65,438+065,438+00 years old, with a death year.
"I'm in good health, but I'm a little old. I am old, but my mind is not old. " Yesterday, the famous economist, linguist and "father of Chinese Pinyin" Mr. Zhou Youguang11had his birthday.
Zhou Youguang's niece, Mao, said in an exclusive interview with Chengdu Business Daily that Zhou Youguang had sent away an unusual year in the past year. She heard that her 80-year-old son died of illness, and his spirit was tortured. He was admitted to the hospital and was given several critical notices. Finally, he overcame his illness in grief.
Ye Fang, the editor-in-chief of Zhou Youguang, told Chengdu Business Daily that her most impressive scene was the historic meeting with Jiang Yang during Zhou Youguang's hospitalization last year.
1 1 1 birthday
He used Achnatherum splendens as a match to light the birthday candle.
Yesterday morning, when a reporter from Chengdu Business Daily contacted Li Jingtao, the editor-in-chief of "Looking at China from the World-A Hundred Years' Works of Zhou Youguang", she had just come out of Mr. Zhou Youguang's house. She said, "Because it is Mr. Zhou Youguang's birthday, the old man is in a good mood and spirit, and his home is very lively. I didn't stay long because there would be a family reunion in the evening. "
In the afternoon, a reporter from Chengdu Business Daily contacted Mao, a senior engineer and Zhou Youguang's niece. Mao said, "I am the daughter of his ninth sister and I work in Beijing, so I have more opportunities to get along with my uncle." Every time I go, my uncle will say,' You are here, good, good, and there are two important news today' ... "
Yesterday, how did Zhou Youguang celebrate its11birthday? "All the relatives of the whole family went," Mao said. Zhou Youguang is from Changzhou, Jiangsu. In the morning, relatives and friends from Changzhou brought cakes and many Changzhou delicacies to his family from Changzhou Hotel in Beijing. At noon, the family get together for dinner. I sang a birthday song and cut the cake. Everyone put on a birthday hat for Zhou Youguang, put on a red scarf and put three candles on the cake to show that they are 1 1 0/year old, but the humorous Zhou Youguang suddenly said, "I 11year old, which means I1year old. Having said that, he asked to light only one of the three candles inserted. Zhou Youguang also said, "When you are old, your heart is not old. The older you get, the newer your thoughts are. "
Zhou Youguang received all kinds of gifts yesterday, besides books, handicrafts and special birthday bowls, there was also a special gift-a pack of Achnatherum splendens. Zhou Youguang once recalled in an article "Wonderful Achnatherum splendens" that when he was in cadre schools, Achnatherum splendens could be used not only as firewood, but also as a product, such as cutting it off with a knife as a toothpick. Yesterday, an unknown fan sent a packet of Achnatherum splendens from Gansu, and asked Mao to give it to Zhou Youguang as a birthday present. "When he gave Achnatherum splendens to his uncle, he was very happy, recalled many past events, made matches with Achnatherum splendens and lit birthday candles. This is very meaningful. "
Mao also told reporters that Zhou Youguang still lives in an "old" house. The family once said they would change him to a house with an elevator, but he said he was too old to toss about. Mao said to him, "My uncle has accumulated too much knowledge and a strong memory. Every day, he insists on watching the news. Sometimes he tells us what is happening in the world and knows everything. It's really embarrassing to take notes with a pen while chatting. " When there was a terrorist attack in Paris last year, Zhou Lao immediately asked the nanny to call Zhang Sengen (a researcher at China Academy of Social Sciences and the planner of Wen Chao Dao Ji) and invited him to talk at home. Recently, he also watched hit dramas such as Yangko and Legend of Mi Yue with great interest.
Unusual 20 15
My son died of illness and was tortured. He received three urgent notices.
Speaking of a family reunion last year, Mao said, "I remember last year was also this season. Cousin Zhou Xiaoping asked us to take him to my uncle's house. He said he would go home to spend his birthday with him. I haven't seen you for over a month. My father and son are very happy to meet each other. After dinner, they sang together. First, they sang the school song of St. John's University in English, and then sang La Marseillaise in French. For so many years, for the first time, we heard my 80-year-old cousin and 1 10-year-old uncle sing together, which was very touching. "
After his birthday, Zhou Xiaoping stayed in his father's house for a few days before returning home, but who would have thought it was farewell. Zhou Xiaoping passed away forever on 2015 65438+1October 22nd. Mao said that the whole family didn't know how to tell Zhou Lao the bad news of Zhou Xiaoping's death, but Zhou Youguang seemed to notice something. "Last year, at 0: 30 in 65438/KOOC-0/October 27th/KOOC-0/0, my uncle couldn't sleep and asked the nanny to push him to my cousin's bed. He said, I want to ask you, what is the purpose of your visit to Beijing? Let's match the cards ... "That night, Zhou Youguang talked about the life and natural laws in Zhou Xiaoping.
After Zhou Xiaoping's death, from 2065438 to February 2005, Zhou Youguang was admitted to the hospital due to stomach bleeding, lung infection and other problems. "My cousin's death was a great mental torture to my uncle, and he became weak and thin. 20 15 is an unusual year for my uncle. Because in more than three months, I was given three critical notices. After June, he slowly recovered a lot. He was discharged from the hospital after his recovery. Now sometimes I will cry when I think of cousin Xiaoping in the middle of the night. "
This year, Zhou Lao's diet is not like eating roast duck casually before, and it is mainly nutrient solution and egg soup. When she came home from the hospital, Zhou Youguang told her niece, "The storm is over and I'm all right."

Zhou Youguang's secret of longevity
Eat less supplements and live a regular life.
Over the past year, Zhou Lao's diet is mainly nutrient solution and egg soup, and he is no longer the "hero" of old Beijing roast duck and sea cucumber with scallion oil, and has lost a lot of weight. Zhou Lao's spirit is good and bad, and two nannies guard him day and night. His physical condition can no longer insist on reading and studying, but the old man still watches the news.
Zhou Lao has the principle of "three noes": no will, but birthday, but New Year's Day. Daily life is getting simpler and simpler, and the needs of life are getting less and less.
In his book, he revealed the secret of longevity: When Zhang Yunhe was alive, we all drank tea in the morning and afternoon, sometimes green tea, sometimes English black tea and sometimes coffee. Our theory is that husband and wife should not only have love, but also respect. In ancient times, husband and wife "sued Qi Mei", but today we have no case, so we "propose a toast to Mei Qi". Everyone raised their glasses when drinking coffee. This little gesture is very useful, which increases the interest and stability of family life. This is handed down from ancient times, which makes sense. When friends come, we also publicize this truth.
We seldom eat supplements, and I don't eat supplements given by others. Once upon a time, in the bank, many people treated them, and they couldn't eat hard food. Delicious delicacies would eat bad people. I think the most important thing for health is to live a regular life and be cheerful at the same time. Health has two aspects: material and spiritual. We don't ask much about material things. Don't be angry, it's all small things. If you lose, you lose.
Zhou Youguang and Jiang Yang.
Meet at the hospital and say "I've heard so much about you"
Ms Ye Fang, the editor in charge of Zhou Youguang's Collected Works, often visits Zhou Lao. Yesterday, Ye Fang told Chengdu Business Daily that last year, she often visited Zhou Youguang during her hospitalization, hoping that Zhou Lao could get over the grief of her son's death. She would take the initiative to talk to Zhou Youguang about her personal sadness, but Zhou Youguang interrupted her and said, "Don't talk about me personally, let's talk about the world. I have seriously thought about this world. "
