Former Residence of 毛泽东
(毛泽东故居)
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen,
Welcome to the Former Residence of 毛泽东. Shaoshan is the birthplace of the Late Chairman Mao. The quaint farmhouse you see now is locally known as the Upper Cottage. It was here on December 26, 1893, that comrade 毛泽东, the great leader of the Chinese people, was born. As early as March, 1963, the State Council pronounced this place to be one of the early Chinese Revolutionary History’s National Heritage site. For its cultural and natural sights, Shaoshan has since been a major tourist destination. It is estimated that nearly 40 million tourists, Chinese and foreign, have visited comrade 毛泽东’s former residence since the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Among the distinguished guests are over 100 Chinese party leaders or state leaders, 14 foreign heads of state, 30 foreign governmental leaders, and visitors from over 150 countries.
The farmhouse stands in front of two water ponds: Lotus Pond and Southern Bank Pond. In his lifetime, comrade 毛泽东 was mad about swimming. He used to swim a lot in Southern Bank Pond in his boyhood. In November of 1963, Guo Moruo, on his visit to Shaoshan, pointed to the pond, and emotionally declared, “毛泽东 swam in a water pond in his boyhood and did so in the Yangtze River in his old age.”
With a northern exposure, Comrade 毛泽东’s boyhood home is typical Southern Chinese mud brick farmhouse. Down in a hollow, it is situated at the foot of a green hill and beside a clear stream. To borrow a locally used term, it is shaped like “a load of firewood”. In the old days, the farmhouse was shared by two families.The Maos lived on the eastern end of 13 blue-tile rooms and their neighbor on the western end of 4 thatched rooms.The entrance hall was shared by two families.
The present building is modeled after its prototype of 1918, showing the Maos in the prime of economic life, in possession of 1 3 tiled rooms, a half of the entrance hall and about 1.47 hectares of farmland.毛泽东 didn’t commit himself to inheriting his family property.He left Shaoshan and walked onto the stage of Chinese politics instead. 毛泽东, a son of a peasant’s family, became a great revolutionary, strategist and theorist of the proletariat.
A horizontal board of rosewood with comrade Deng Xiaoping’s inscription in golden characters“Comrade 毛泽东’s Former Residence，”which personally written by him on April 2, 1983, hangs from the front entrance’s lintel.
Entrance Hall
Please step into the entrance hall. As mentioned earlier, this is the entrance hall that was shared by the two families.In Southern China，the entrance hall also serves as a banquet hall for entertaining guests on festive occasions. The square table and benches are originals.This is a shrine for worshipping Buddha or ancestors.
A small door at the back of the hall leads to a back room.This big pot was used for cooking pig fodder.The basin on the right was used for taking a bath or washing cloths.毛泽东 used to help his parents with housework，carrying water with buckets for example.This big bucket is an original. This skylight, common in south China, is used for ventilation and lighting.
Hearth
This is a hearth.In wintertime，southern farmers warm themselves around the hearth with firewood burning inside.Dangling over it is a hook, on which a kettle is hung for boiling water; there were no thermos bottles in the farmhouse at the time. A guest was served a cup of boiled water poured from the kettle.A cooking pot could be suspended from the hook for cooking food so the whole families were sitting around the hearth, chatting over a meal.What a cozy home! Mao returned home in the Spring of 1921, when he was busy preparing the establishment of the Chinese Communist Party.Both his parents had died.His mother’s birthday fell on February 15th.That evening, he asked his brothers, sister-in-laws and sisters to sit around the hearth for a family chat.His younger brother Mao Zeming told him about disasters the family had suffered over years.“That’s true，”毛泽东 said,“The suffering not only affects our family but the most other Chinese families as well.A single family cannot expect to live an easy life in a time of nationwide chaos.So we should sacrifice a smaller family to serve a bigger family in the interests of general public.” Under 毛泽东's cheering guidance, his family members left Shaoshan one after the other to embark on a revolutionary road.In the protracted revolutionary struggle, he would ask his family members to work in the hardest places or to fight in the most dangerous places.His six family members laid down their lives for the revolutionary cause successively.His family clearly is an illustrious revolutionary family.You may get detailed information about this in a special section of the Exhibition Hall of Comrade 毛泽东.
Bedroom of 毛泽东’s Parents
This is the bedroom of 毛泽东’s parents.Comrade 毛泽东 was born in this room on December 26，1893.This is the late parents’ portrait.Mao Shunsheng (毛泽东’s father),
was an industrial, thrifty, intelligent and capable peasant.He died at the age of 50 in 1920 from acute typhoid fever.Thanks to his father’s savings, 毛泽东 had a chance to further his studies outside Shaoshan in his early life.毛泽东’s mother, born in 1867, was a peasant woman, hardworking, kind-hearted, clever and virtuous. She was gentle and loving and often helped out her neighbors.The fine qualities of the working people his parents maintained exerted a great influence on his formative years.
Gazing at the portrait of his mother in 1959, 毛泽东 said，“I bear a close resemblance to my mother.” After a long gaze, he continued, “If only it had been today.She would not have died if it had been today.” The timeworn wooden bed you are looking at is an original.
毛泽东’s Bedroom
This is 毛泽东’s bedroom.The picture hanging on the wall is a group photo of 毛泽东, his mother and his two younger brothers, taken in Changsha in the spring of 1919.At the time 毛泽东 worked in Changsha and his second younger brother Mao Zetan studied there.And his first younger brother Mao Zeming took his mother, who was terminally ill, to Changsha for medical treatment.That’s why the family of four had a chance to have their group photo taken, which is the only such photo that exists of the family.His mother passed away in October of that year.This valuable photo had been left in the care of 毛泽东’s grandmother, and we are fortunate that this early record of Mao and his family survived.
This is the place where 毛泽东 read and studied.It is by this oil lamp that 毛泽东 read his books at night.He was bright and talented and was an avid reader.His room was infested with mosquitoes on summer nights.He would lie in bed and poke his head out of a closed mosquito net, reading by an oil lamp on a bedside bench. On winter nights he would lie beneath a quilt and read late into the night.Aged 13 to 15, he had to quit school to help his parents with farm work.Even during this period, he devoted his spare time to studies.
Mao Zetan’s Bedroom
This is the bedroom of 毛泽东’s second younger brother Mao Zetan.Mao Zetan was born in 1905.He followed his elder brother to Changsha for schooling at the age of 13.In 1923 he joined the Chinese Communist Party and participated in the party’s political and military activities for many years. After the main force of the Red Army went on the Long March in October, 1934, he remained in the Soviet Area of the CPC Central Committee of Jiangxi and carried out guerrilla warfare.He once served as commander of the Independent Division of the Red Army.He died a hero at the age of 29 in April，1935 in a battle east of Ruijin.Gazing at the portrait of Mao Zetan, Deng Xiaoping, on his trip to 毛泽东’s birthplace in 1983, recalled the days when they stuck together in Jiangxi through thick and thin and heartily praised Mao Zetan,“He was indeed a good comrade.”
Mao zemin’s Bedroom
This is the bedroom of Mao Zemin.Born in1895, he was 毛泽东’s first younger brother.When 毛泽东 returned to Shaoshan in spring, 1921, Mao Zemin had been married.He spent much time persuading his married brother and his family members to throw themselves into the revolution at the time.毛泽东 pointed that one should think not only of his own family, but should think of the whole society and the suffering borne by the majority of people. Under his elder brother’s careful instruction, Mao Zemin resolutely gave up an easy life at home and went out in pursuit of the revolutionary cause.He joined the Chinese Communist Party in 1922 and worked in the financial and logistics departments of the party. In 1943, at the age of 43, he was killed by Sheng Shicai, a Xinjiang warlord.Hearing this on his 1991 Shaoshan visit, Jiang Zemin, the then party Secretary-general of CPC said affectionately，“毛泽东’s family is an outstanding one, making great contributions to the revolutionary cause.” Four more of Mao’s family members, besides Mao Zemin and Mao Zetan, all laid down their lives for the Chinese revolution.
