During the Republic of China period, it was a period of fusion of Chinese and Western ideas, many people have received Western education, but it is still difficult for them to truly identify with and practice, so they still arrange marriages for their children, resulting in unhappiness in their children's lives. This is the case with this talented woman of the Republic of China, who was forced to accept an arranged marriage to run away, but she ruined her life and finally died alone.
She was Bai Wei, born in Zixing City in 1893, her father had gone to Japan to study, received a new education, and participated in the Chinese League, so he let his daughters also receive education, and supported them to go to university and cultivate their hobbies. However, there is one thing he maintains the traditional idea, that is, the arranged marriage of his children, he always feels that the choice of parents is the best.
Bai Wei had excellent grades during her school years, because she had the ability and responsibility, and she met many friends, and all of them took her as the leader. At the age of 16, her father made a family affair for her, and Bai Wei was forced to accept it. But after marrying, I learned that this person did not have a little knowledge, ate and was lazy all day, and had a tendency to domestic violence, and the two did not have a common language at all, and finally escaped through the help of their sister.
In 1918, Bai Wei went to Japan to study, but the sister who helped her could not escape, and was forced by her father to marry someone she did not like. After going to Japan, Bai Wei was admitted to the Tokyo Ochanomizu High School of Education for Women, majoring in biology and physics, in addition to which she taught herself aesthetics, Buddhism and philosophy, and read a large number of books about society, which had a profound impact on her. If it goes on like this, her life will still be very fulfilling, but she has met people who have influenced her life.
In 1924, Bai Wei met Yang Suo, a Chinese student, who fell in love with him at first sight and often looked for opportunities to contact Bai Wei, but after learning of Bai Wei's family lineage, Yang Suo retreated. Yang Sao was born poor, the family is waiting for him to feed, Bai Wei will not look down on him, he is very entangled in his heart, coupled with Bai Wei's strong personality, so he fled, not to quit.
After Yang Sao left, Bai Wei was disheartened and returned to China in 1926 as a teacher at Sun Yat-sen University. In fact, the two have always been in contact, because Bai Wei likes Yang Sao, and has a glimmer of hope for him, thinking that he will turn back one day. In 1927, after Yang Sao experienced many things, he remembered Bai Wei's goodness, so he came to Shanghai to meet Bai Wei.
It is said that Xiao Beisheng is newly married, and the two have released their previous suspicions this time, and their feelings are better than before, and they have fallen into a hot love and discussed the matter of marriage. In 1928, the two married, but Yang Suo did not appear on the wedding day, leaving Bai Wei alone to face the guests, and for a while embarrassment and embarrassment made her unable to accept, especially Yang Sao's irresponsibility, which broke her heart.
Bai Wei came out of the shadow of this matter after a long time, lived her own life, and published works such as "Playing the Ghost Tower" and "The Passion of the Revolutionary God", becoming a shining new star in the literary world. At this time, she had seen through the red dust and no longer had hope for her feelings, and Yang Sao found her again, but no matter what, Bai Wei refused to accept him, and no longer accepted others.
In 1944, Yang Sao knew that Bai Wei was irretrievable, so he married someone else, and the two finally ended their 20-year entanglement. Bai Wei has written a large number of works, but most of them are very sad, which may have a certain relationship with her experience, and Yang Sao has been obsessed with yang for so long without any results, and has not married in her life, and in her later years she was poor, hungry and cold, lonely and old, and died in 1987 at the age of 94.
