To Mao Chunxuan
(May 8, 1950)

Dear Grand-Uncle Chunxuan,

Your letter of last December has been received, and I am very grateful. Langqiu, Diqiu, and the others should all work at home and not come to Beijing, so as to avoid wasting time. This is my reply.

With best wishes for your spring well-being!

Mao Zedong
