The Three Sisters of the Song Clan were one of the four major families known to the Family of the Republic of China, and the three daughters of the Song Family. And Song Ziwen is the representative of the Song family. In the 1920s and 1930s, Song Ziwen, who graduated from harvard university in the United States in the department of finance, became the finance minister of the Republic of China at the age of 32, controlling the lifeblood of China's economy at that time. In 1971, after Song Ziwen died in the United States, none of his sisters came to see him off. So how are his widows and three daughters living?
In 1971, Song Ziwen died suddenly, leaving his wife and three daughters devastated. The daughter who was guarding the spiritual throne waited bitterly for the arrival of her aunts.
However, when he missed the auspicious time of the condolence ceremony again and again, he never saw half a message from his aunts. Seeing the restlessness of the guests, the ceremony was finally forced.
It's just that it's a special farewell ceremony!
At this time, Song Ziwen's sister Song Meiling had just received an urgent telegram from Jiang, "Mistakenly falling into the trap and stopping going to the United States." ”
Seeing these cold lead words, Song Meiling's long-suppressed emotions could no longer be controlled. The scene of living with his brother in his childhood is vividly remembered, and now that his brother has died, do you still have to give up the final farewell with your brother under political pressure?
After thinking about it again, Song Meiling resolutely stepped on a special plane to the United States.
The prestigious Song family, Song Ziwen is the mainstay of the Song family. After he returned from studying in the United States, his eldest sister Song Yiling, who was working as an English teacher for Miss Sheng JiaWu, learned that Mrs. Zhuang, the head of the Sheng family, was going to find a secretary for his son Sheng Enyi to assist him in managing the affairs of the company.
Therefore, Song Xialing recommended to Lady Zhuang her younger brother who had returned from studying abroad. Mrs. Zhuang was very satisfied after seeing Song Ziwen, who had a calm temperament and spoke properly.
Song Ziwen successfully became the secretary of the fourth son of the Sheng family. During this period, Song Ziwen had some intersections with Sheng Aiyi, the seventh lady of the Sheng family.
Song Ziwen, who has a very good English skill, subsequently became the English teacher of Miss Sheng Jiaqi.
Since childhood, Bingxue is intelligent, a collection of thousands of pets in one of the grand love Yi, independent thinking, lively and cheerful. In getting along with Song Ziwen, the young man with the appearance of a talented woman gradually became secretly in love.
However, when Mrs. Zhuang learned that Song Ziwen's father was playing the piano in the church, she strongly opposed this improper exchange.
Song Ziwen's second sister Song Qingling recommended Song Ziwen to enter politics at this time. Song Ziwen hoped to take Sheng Aiyi with him, but Sheng Aiyi could not bear to leave his mother. Embarrassed, he said to Song Ziwen, "You go!" I'm waiting for you to come back! Subsequently, he gave Song Ziwen a handful of gold leaves as a travel expense.
Song Ziwen was introduced by his second sister Song Qingling and entered important positions in the political circles. Due to the finance department that Song Ziwen studied during his study abroad, his expertise has been fully exerted in the workplace.
Song Ziwen, who has only been in politics for two years, sat in the chair of the minister of finance as he wished, and became an important figure who controlled the economic lifeline of the Republic of China.
During an expedition to Jiangxi, Song Ziwen was fascinated by the beauty of Lushan Mountain. Determined to build a private residence in Lushan.
At that time, Zhang Mouzhi, the richest man in Jiujiang, Jiangxi, was responsible for receiving Song Ziwen and was fully responsible for the construction of Song Ziwen's villa. Song Ziwen thus met Zhang Mouzhi's daughter Zhang Leyi.
Zhang Leyi is gentle and sunny, her appearance is beautiful, and Song Ziwen is fascinated at first sight.
Less than a year after the acquaintance, 33-year-old Song Ziwen married 20-year-old Zhang Leyi.
A year after marriage, Zhang Leyi gave birth to a lovely daughter, and Song Ziwen thanked Miss Shengjiaqi and named her daughter "Song Qiongyi".
In 1930, when Song Ziwen returned to the city where Miss ShengjiaQi was located with his wife and two daughters, he learned that Miss Shengjiaqi was still waiting for him.
Miss Sheng Jiaqi established her own business after the death of her mother, Mrs. Zhuang. She not only made a name for herself in China's first feminist rights case, but also became famous for her "Sheng Qi" on the beach.
When Miss Seven of the Sheng family learned that Lang Jun, who had been waiting for ten years, had become a husband and a father, she was seriously ill. Since then, it has been like a strange road with Song Ziwen.
And Song Ziwen knew that he owed too much to Miss Seven, and named his three daughters "Song Qiongyi", "Song Manyi" and "Song Ruiyi".
During his important position in Nanjing, Song Ziwen actively created a good external environment by virtue of his advantages in studying abroad.
In the social ups and downs of that time, Song Ziwen braved hardships and dangers, recovered China's tariff autonomy and extraterritorial jurisdiction, and made great contributions to China's economic development.
In 1949, when the Kuomintang was gradually defeated, Song Ziwen went to the United States with his wife and children.
Song Ziwen's eldest daughter, Song Qiongyi, at the age of 24, met Feng Yanda, the son of the famous diplomat Feng Ruling, and married them.
Feng Yanda's father was good friends with Song Ziwen for many years, and he served as China's consul general in San Francisco and ambassador to Mexico. His grandfather was the founder of Shanghai Yongan Company.
Since the eldest son-in-law, Feng Yanda, also studied finance, Song Ziwen was quite important to this son-in-law. Not only did he teach financial knowledge to the eldest son-in-law, but he also asked the eldest son-in-law to help his younger brother Song Zian manage his financial business in the United States.
The eldest daughter, Song Qiongyi and Feng Yanda, gave birth to two sons, and due to the influence of the family environment, the two sons also worked in the financial industry.
After Song Ziwen's death, the eldest son-in-law, Feng Yanda, always helped Song Zi'an to manage his Guangdong banking business in the United States.
Song Ziwen's second daughter, Song Manyi, is the one of the three sisters who looks most similar to her mother, Zhang Leyi.
Although she was born in a chaotic world of war, due to Zhang Leyi's meticulous upbringing and the company of her sister Song Qiongyi, Song Manyi was born delicate and lively. As an adult, Song Manyi became acquainted with Singaporean businessman Yu Jingpeng.
Yu Jingpeng made his fortune by making Chinese herbal medicine, and after the company grew, he gradually diversified and developed horizontally, engaged in department stores and other businesses.
After their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Song Man-yi settled in Hong Kong, and although they rarely visited their parents in the United States, they always maintained close contact with their parents.
The Yu family is still a business magnate in Hong Kong. After marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Song Manyi have a son and two daughters, and a happy and prosperous life has always enabled song manyi's family to always have a certain position in the Hong Kong business community.
Song Ziwen's younger daughter, Song Ruiyi, has been influenced by new ideas since childhood and has a sunny and enlightened personality. Born in 1936, Song Ruiyi has received more Western culture than her two older sisters.
When Song Ruiyi was 18 years old, by chance, he met Yang Chengzhu, an overseas Chinese in Singapore, and declared that he was married to Yang Chengzhu.
The enlightened Song Ziwen has always taught children to respect their inner choices and learn to be responsible for themselves. Therefore, Song Ziwen did not have much objection to the decision made by the 18-year-old daughter herself.
Yang Chengzhu's great-grandfather moved to the Philippines in the late Qing Dynasty and founded Longxing Iron Industry, and in the inheritance of generations, the Yang family industry developed rapidly. There are certain industries in the Philippines and Taipei.
Of the three sisters, the third daughter, Song Ruiyi, married the Yang family, a prominent family that is still in the Philippines.
After marriage, Song Ruiyi and her husband Yang Chengzhu had two boys and two daughters, and the family settled in the Philippines to run the Yang family's business with the American General Motors Company in the Philippines.
In his later years, Song Ziwen always missed his homeland, and often asked the American political circles if he could help him return to China, and the return of the fallen leaves was his hope in his later years.
On April 25, 1971, during a banquet in San Francisco, Song Ziwen accidentally got stuck in the trachea by a fish thorn and eventually died due to ineffective rescue.
In 2008, Song Ziwen's eldest daughter, Song Qiongyi, boarded a flight back to China with her family. They returned to the embrace of the motherland with their father's will, and in this homeland where they were born and raised, their father saw the rapid changes in the motherland.
