The famous general Sun Liren had two sons and two daughters, and the achievements of these four children were remarkable. The eldest daughter is a nuclear engineering expert, the eldest son is a physicist, the second son is a computer engineer, and the younger daughter is a biochemistry expert.
Although these four children are from famous families, the success rate is really high, and General Sun Liren himself is also a rare general, and the genes of this family are really enviable.
Marriage turmoil
However, the birth mother of these four children is not Sun Liren's wife Zhang Jingying, but the concubine Zhang Meiying, not only that, Zhang Meiying can enter the door, or Zhang Jingying is matched.
Sun Liren has married three women in his lifetime, and the first Gong Xitao was the master of two parents, a typical arranged marriage. However, the filial piety of Sun Liren did not particularly oppose, and Gong Xitao was also an excellent woman with a modern education. Therefore, although the two people are not in love, they also respect each other as guests.
However, the final outcome of the couple is gradually drifting apart, Sun Liren studied in the United States shortly after marriage, but Gong Xitao terminated his studies, stayed in his hometown to serve his in-laws, and became a traditional good wife and mother. Sun Liren originally wanted to make progress with Gong Xitao, but when he returned, he found that the woman in the new era had dropped out of school and become a traditional woman, the two people cared for each other wordlessly, and between husband and wife, there was no common topic.
At that time, divorce was not easy, Sun Li and Gong Xitao could only go their separate ways, Gong Xitao continued to live in his hometown, Sun Liren worked in other places, in addition to sending money home, the two couples basically had no communication. While Sun Liren was suffering from marriage, another woman broke into his sight.
This beautiful girl is Zhang Jingying, at that time Zhang Jingying was still a female student, but her personality was very lively and generous. Because Zhang Jingying is also a famous bridesmaid, and Sun Liren, who is serving in the government, has a common circle, so he quickly became acquainted, since ancient beauty loves heroes, in the face of such an excellent man as Sun Liren, Zhang Jingying can't help but be moved.
In fact, why didn't Sun Liren have a heart? Zhang Jingying is exactly the kind of girl he likes, but the problem is that he still has Gong Xitao, a legitimate wife, in his family. Zhang Jingying learned that her sweetheart already had a wife, and naturally she was very entangled, but she could not let go of Sun Liren, so she said that if the Sun family had no opinion, she was willing to do the second room.
Take a wife and a concubine
Seeing zhang Jingying's concessions, Sun Liren ran back to his hometown and said his thoughts about wanting to marry a beautiful woman again. Sun Liren's parents were furious, although during the Republic of China period, it was not a big deal for men to take concubines, but the sun family's parents had always appreciated Gong Xitao, a virtuous daughter-in-law, Sun Liren was cold and indifferent to Gong Xitao in his daily life, his parents were already very dissatisfied, and now Sun Liren wanted to take concubines, and of course it was difficult for the second elder to agree.
It's just that Sun Liren's attitude is resolute, he has a deep affection for Zhang Jingying, even if he disobeys his parents, he still wants to marry her, and his husband has such an attitude, Gong Xitao has no way but to agree with tears. Since then, Sun Liren has set up another family, although he is talking about concubines to his parents, but in fact, Zhang Jingying got the treatment that his wife deserves from Sun Liren, and in Sun Liren's political career for many years, he has always been accompanied by Zhang Jingying.
How many people who walk in the political arena can withdraw and retreat? Sun Liren, an excellent general, was also spared political troubles, especially after coming to Taiwan, and was once placed under house arrest. For Zhang Jingying, the level of her husband's official position is secondary, as long as life is stable, but their loving couple also always has unsatisfactory places, married for so many years, they have not had children.
The reason why there are no children is because Zhang Jingying has some physical problems and it is difficult to have children. However, Zhang Jingying knew that Sun Liren still wanted children in his heart, and she did not want her husband to die, so in order to let the general have a son under his knees, Zhang Jingying planned to find another family affair for Sun Liren.
Although there are many young girls who admire Sun Liren, concubines are not casual things, and Zhang Jingying hopes to find a generous and decent person. Zhang Jingying felt that before taking a concubine, she always had to observe and observe, so she did not say concubines first, but said that she had recruited family nurses, and among the many women who came to apply, she found a girl named Zhang Meiying.
Talented
Zhang Jingying then entrusted Zhang Meiying to take care of Sun Liren's body, to create opportunities for the two people to get along, and to see if they could cultivate feelings first. Sure enough, as Zhang Jingying expected, the temperament was harmonious, and Zhang Meiying, who knew the book Dali, soon won the love of Sun Liren, seeing that there was a door to the concubine, Zhang Jingying personally went to Zhang Meiying to say that the media, under the mediation of Zhang Jingying, Zhang Meiying married into the Sun family as a second-room wife.
Since Zhang Meiying entered the door, Zhang Jingying left the house, immersed herself in practicing Buddhism, and entrusted the affairs of the family to Zhang Meiying. Zhang Meiying also gave birth to four children for Sun Li, satisfying the wish of Sun Liren's children and grandchildren to wrap around their knees.
The family has increased the population, but Sun Liren's allowance is not much, and the virtuous and capable Zhang Meiying is meticulous about the family's expenses, and also personally does some small business to supplement the family. When Sun Liren was young, he asked the tutor to personally make up the lessons, but in his children's generation, the family did not have this economic condition, and Sun Liren became the children's home teacher himself.
For Sun Liren, who once stayed overseas, giving lessons to children is a trivial matter, but he is not harsh on children's academic performance, only requires them to see the grades, the key is to cultivate their own virtues, to be a person with both moral integrity and ability, what the children like, he also encourages them to actively explore, even if the exploration is not successful, it does not matter, the key is to experience the fun of spontaneous learning.
Under the care of his father, all four children have been admitted to prestigious schools, Sun Liren is somewhat guilty about the children, when he first became a father, he was more than fifty years old, and the energy to accompany his children was far less than that of those young fathers. And because his movement is limited, the children go to study abroad, he can't visit them, and even their letters are repeatedly checked.
But the children have always regarded their father as a role model in life, after they grow up, they hope to rely on their own strength to help their father restore freedom, Sun Liren once called the wind and rain in the army, but his children did not have people who joined the military and politics, Sun Liren himself did not want children to get involved in politics, fortunately, several children are more interested in science than politics.
A family of four children, scientists in four different fields, this nature and Sun Liren's education and respect for children have a lot to do with it, although Sun Liren himself is not a scientist, playing the model as a father, he gave the children the soil to the future, parents are the children's first teacher, there is a father like Sun Liren to teach with heart, there will naturally be excellent children.
