Mingyuan is a word that is forever insulated from the bottom woman, because the woman who can be linked to this word is first of all the superior family, the Republic of China celebrities such as Tang Ying, Lu Xiaoman, are from the rich wealth of the scholarly family, but what is lamentable is that these two women who are not short of money, one can surround her children and grandchildren to live a stable old age, one is dependent on love enemies to help the poor and die, the latter said that lu Xiaoman, but her mother's family is so rich, why not help, even let her to this point?
In fact, Lu Xiaoman's family did not help each other, but in the end it was really "impossible to help", why do you say so? I have to start from the beginning - Lu Xiaoman was born in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province in 1903, his father was called Lu Ding, Lu Ding was intelligent when he was a child, he had ideas when he grew up, of course, he would make more money, not only participated in the China League, but also served as the financial secretary, the director of taxation, and finally became the founder of the China Savings Bank.
There is such a father, you can see that on the information about Lu Xiaoman, it is clearly written that a line "In 1909, I went to Beijing with my mother to live according to my father", but Lu Xiaoman, who "lived according to my father", was not disliked, because Lu Ding gave birth to 9 children successively, but only Lu Xiaoman survived, Lu Xiaoman became a pearl in the palm of his hand, Lu Ding sent her to the best primary school, the best middle school, asked her for foreign teachers, and built her into a talented girl.
At that time, the families of the upper class cultivated girls, not to let them have their own ideals in life, but to let them have more chips to enhance their competitiveness in the future marriage market, Lu Xiaoman did not think so much, such as female consciousness, etc., she honestly accepted these educations, because she enjoyed the glory brought to her by these educations, she also used it well, and it swept the entire Beijing social circle in 1920.
After the time was ripe, Lu Ding chose an excellent future partner for Lu Xiaoman - Wang Geng, Wang Geng is really too suitable for Lu Xiaoman, Lu Xiaoman does not know bitterness all his life, does not know what is the taste of rejection, Wang Geng, although the family fell in the middle of the road, and later with his own efforts, he became an army colonel who was both literate and martial, such a person he could help Lu Xiaoman to eat all the hardships, naturally he would not refuse all of Lu Xiaoman's requests, it was a glass cover suitable for Lu Xiaoman.
When they got married in 1922, the Lu family was still in its heyday, doing its best to do extravagant things, and Wang Geng had a very strong network of relationships, so at that time, it was a staggered and numerous people, the media was crowded left and right, the flash sounded like firecrackers, and after marriage, although Wang Geng was busy, he never stopped Lu Xiaoman from going out to play and throwing money, otherwise he would not let Lu Xiaoman meet Xu Zhimo at this time, so that the two of them would have a long-term relationship in their own homes.
The most excessive is that these two people have a long-term relationship, but also called Wang Geng accidentally saw the letter of the two people, so that Wang Geng and Lu Xiaoman had a big fight, originally Wang Geng thought that it would be as if it had not happened, Xu Zhimo deliberately organized a dinner, calling a cadre of people to say freedom Ah love, at first Wang Geng did not know the meaning of this table meal, the banquet was more than half understood, and had to use his last gentlemanly demeanor to say: "May we all create happiness for ourselves, and toast to the happiness of others!" ”
In 1925, Lu Xiaoman would rather beat the fetus and divorce Wang Geng, Wang Geng let go, the Lu family had no way, and this also became the biggest turning point in Lu Xiaoman's life, and then she could not help but say that her life was declining, because of this marriage she lost Wang Geng and all the networks of Wang Geng, Although Wang Geng did not marry for life, he also said good things for her many times, but he would no longer lend a helping hand to her to humiliate himself, wang Geng's relatives and friends naturally looked down on her who cheated in marriage, and no longer came and went.
On the other hand, Xu Zhimo let Zhang Youyi beat the fetus, forced to divorce her, and only married Lu Xiaoman in two years, and the Xu family was more satisfied with Zhang Youyi from beginning to end, completely indifferent to Lu Xiaoman, and completely disappointed in Xu Zhimo himself, so they got married, the Xu family was unwilling to give a penny, and even the Xu family did not have anyone present, nor did any relative send blessings, after all, there was a little contempt in their hearts.
In addition to the above, Liang Qichao was also offended by them, and Liang Qichao, who had a very good view, repeatedly said that their behavior was unfaithful and unjust, and once clearly wrote in his letters: "I watched him find such a person as a partner, afraid that he would suffer more infinitely in the future, so I wanted to be a blow to that person, hoping that she would have enlightenment, so as not to exhaust Shima in the future." So although he was a witness to the marriage, he did not send blessings to their marriage, but scolded them.
More importantly, Lu Xiaoman's family is not as good as before, after all, the situation at that time was complicated and changeable, Lu Ding's identity was destined to be high and low, coupled with Lu Xiaoman's series of events, the impact on the Lu family in high society is definitely there, not to mention that not long after they got married, that is, Lu Ding died in 1930, part of the property was used for the revolutionary cause of the Alliance, and the other part was left to his wife Wu Manhua and Lu Xiaoman, and the Lu family had no economic resources.
However, Lu Xiaoman has always been unaware, at first after only a few months of normal married life, she began to go in and out of the social field day and night, when Xu Zhimo wrote many times in the letter: "Your senseless socializing is really impatient, I want to think about it, I am really angry, robbed by robbers all day long." After a few years of marriage, I still say: "I've kept it for a few years, and I can't even keep a single opportunity, you don't have a day that isn't engaged, we've never had privacy." ”
No privacy is still secondary, Lu Xiaoman has always spent a lot of money, ten coat boxes at home, the wardrobe is full of all kinds of expensive furs, the villa has drivers, cooks and more than a dozen servants, but also smoke opium, even Lu Xiaoman's own mother Wu Manhua can't look down, and others complained: "Xiao Man buys high-end leather shoes, buys 5 pairs at a time, spends at least 500 yuan a month, sometimes up to 600 yuan." This family is difficult, and I can't be. ”
What is the concept of 500 bucks a month? Chen Cunren wrote in "Life History in the Silver Dollar Era" and "The Economic Life of Cultural People", when the monthly salary of intern doctors was 8 yuan, the monthly salary of the section chief of the Health Bureau was only 30 yuan, 1 yuan could be exchanged for 300 copper plates, 7 classmates could be invited to eat crab shell yellow, raw fried steamed bread, tea, and then there were 280 copper plates left... It is conceivable that Lu Xiaoman's consumption level is to spend tens of millions of dollars every month.
She also had a bit of "why not eat meat", Xu Zhimo ran to Beijing to be a teacher for her luxurious life, Lu Xiaoman did not want to leave Shanghai, causing Xu Zhimo to have to take a free plane on both sides, Lu Xiaoman told Xu Zhimo not to sit, and finally Xu Zhimo had to tell her: "Love wife, you also know our economic conditions, you don't let me take a free plane, take the train but ask for money, I am a poor professor, and I want a housekeeper, where is so much money to take the train?" ”
It is precisely because Lu Xiaoman has been unrestrained, in 1933, the family that had been supported by Xu Zhimo was painstakingly supported, and at the moment when the plane hit the mountain, lu Xiaoman, who was not productive and helpless, had to ask for help from Hu Shi, Hu Shi and the Xu family mediated, the Xu family was willing to give her 200 yuan a month, but after she and Weng Rui lived together in the afternoon, the money was broken, so only Zhang Youyi was left to help her... "It is good to sit on the mountain and eat the ground", the ancients are sincere and do not deceive people.
