He devoted himself to the secret research of nuclear weapons and worked hard for 28 years, giving China an atomic bomb and a hydrogen bomb. The mushroom cloud shocked the world, but he died of nuclear radiation and cancer bleeding.
But today, let's talk about his family through the subject's question. There are many stories of talented people and beautiful women in history, but the story of Deng Jiaxian and his wife Xu Luxi still shakes the years and countless people. They are family friends. After graduating from Peking University in Xu Luxi, they stayed on to teach. The combination with Deng Jiaxian can be said to be a match made in heaven. Only when she chose Deng Jiaxian, she chose persistence. She waited for Deng Jiaxian for 28 years with no regrets, and took care of the housework with a pair of children. Finally, the lover she hoped for suffered from cancer and died in her arms.
There is a love called state secrets, which can be earth-shattering. Let's go and see the desert hero's wife Xu Luxi and his children.
First, there is a kind of love called state secrets.
Love has many explanations. The love between Deng Jiaxian and his wife Xu Luxi is a kind of love called state secrets.
Xu Luxi was born in a scholarly family, and his father, Xu Deheng, was a famous scholar and the founder of Jiu San Society. He and Deng Jiaxian's father, Deng Yizhe, have been friends for decades. Deng Jiaxian and Xu Luxi were childhood friends, and Deng Jiaxian taught her when she was a teaching assistant at Peking University.
1953, Deng Jiaxian and Xu Luxi got married, and they were a perfect match. They live a kind and loving life, and they have a pair of children, so the family is very happy.
1958, recommended by Qian Sanqiang, Deng Jiaxian led a team to engage in nuclear research, which is a state secret and cannot be told to his family. He told his wife that his job had been transferred, but he couldn't say what job it was or where he worked.
He and his wife talked about the fall of Beiping many years ago, and watched the Japanese army's anger when they oppressed the people unscrupulously, and then said: My life has been dedicated to my future work. If I do this well, my life will be very meaningful, even if I die for it!

Deng Jiaxian is an introvert, but this job is not only confidential, but also very dangerous. He took his wife and a pair of children to the photo studio to take a family photo.
So Deng Jiaxian left home for 28 years, and occasionally came back on the way, but there was a car and a guard to follow. Deng Jiaxian came and went in a hurry, and his wife Xu Luxi was separated, so it was no different from separation.
Xu Luxi didn't know what Deng Jiaxian was doing for a long time, but he trusted her husband and chose to wait silently. She is alone with a pair of children and has to wait on her sick in-laws.
