In the morning, the teacher will take us to Ye Ting Memorial Hall. We set off from school in a long and neat queue. After crossing the overpass and walking through the cave... we finally arrived at the Ye Ting Memorial Hall.
We first came to the place where General Ye Ting was imprisoned. The house is low and dark. The furniture inside is very simple: there is only a very simple bed, a broken table, and a few chairs that are falling apart. There are also some farm tools placed in the corner.
Back then, Ye Ting was imprisoned here, and his wife Li Xiuwen, son Ye Xinhua, and daughter Ye Yangmei all lived here. At that time, when people around knew that the imprisoned person was General Ye Ting, they all came here one after another to have a heart-to-heart talk with him. He often taught people how to read. Seeing such a friendly general, people envied him even more
Climbing dozens of steps, we came to Ye Ting's tomb. There are tall green cypress trees on both sides. They remained motionless in the wind, as if they were also mourning General Ye Ting. After we observed a moment of silence, all the students read "Prison Song" by Ye Ting. In the content of the poem, we feel the spirit of General Ye Ting who regards death as home.
Going down the steps, we came to the exhibition hall. We saw many items that Sheng Ting used during his lifetime: hoes, kettles... Looking at all of this, we seemed to see General Ye Ting trying to help people around him. , for his own life, working hard in the barren mountains and wilderness: he was sweating profusely in the weeds under the scorching sun...
Finally, it was time for us to return to school, and I looked back at the green pine trees. The memorial hall, shaded by green cypresses, can’t help but stand in awe.
