Lin Huiyin is a woman who can withstand the loneliness and loneliness of academics, and can withstand the poverty and hardships of life. --Lee Ken-woo
Throughout Chinese history, some of them are very intelligent, some have high emotional intelligence, and some have an extraordinary life because of fate. But if you ask which one can have all these advantages, then Lin Huiyin must be the first name to come to mind, such a strange woman is simply a treasure of the world that cannot be sought, and it seems that all the beautiful words are placed on her so appropriately.
First, what does Lin Huiyin's true appearance look like?
Let's start with Lin Huiyin's appearance. In the eyes of many people, Lin Huiyin is not only very talented, but his appearance is full of intellectual temperament because he has read poetry and books and experienced the cold and warmth of the world. Not long ago, some netizens used the most advanced AI technology to repair an old photo of Lin Huiyin that was blurry, but there may be a reason for "too much force", resulting in this Lin Huiyin not looking so real, and there is also a bit of "net red" meaning, which is obviously inconsistent with the lin Huiyin in the impression of most people.
In fact, like this kind of AI restoration map, generally will be mixed with personal aesthetics and beautified or changed, if you really want to understand the true appearance of Lin Huiyin, or from the evaluation of others and some real old photos can be seen, after all, old photos will not lie.
In the eyes of Liang Sicheng's second wife, Lin Su, Lin Huiyin is a woman who is "too thin to be called a beauty", but in fact, Lin Su's evaluation is based on the last stage of Lin Huiyin's life, suffering from severe tuberculosis, you can imagine the impact of tuberculosis on a person, even every breath will bring severe pain, what about beauty?
What's more, judging from the photos of Lin Hui lying on the bed during her illness, although she lost her vitality and brilliance under the torment of the disease, the beautiful temperament brought by years of immersion in the poetry book and the kind and calm brought about by the precipitation of the years were still preserved.
In fact, the famous writer and Lin Huiyin's "nemesis" Bing Xin once described his feelings about seeing Lin Huiyin for the first time in the "Complete Works of Ice Hearts". She said that at that time, Lin Hui was full of talent because of his style, and he was definitely the most beautiful and handsome of all the female writers Bing Xin had ever seen. We will not mention it for the time being, but only from this few words, we can feel how temperamental Lin Huiyin was at that time.
The same evaluation was made by Xu Zhimo's original wife Zhang Youyi, according to the reason, the appearance of Lin Huiyin led to a rift in the marriage between her and Xu Zhimo, so Zhang Youyi should have resented Lin Huiyin, but private feelings could not resist the light on Lin Huiyin, Zhang Youyi repeatedly publicly evaluated Lin Huiyin in public, saying that she was a "beautiful and completely free lady".
Second, Lin Huiyin's "alternative" life
Speaking of Lin Huiyin, there are indeed many people who are impressed by her talent, but at the same time, everyone thinks that she is a representative of "alternative" and does not conflict with her talent. And the reason why this statement will be spread is actually for several reasons.
In Bai Luomei's biography to Lin Huiyin, "If You Are Well, It's Sunny", Lin Huiyin is described as a woman who is tainted with the poetry of Wenrun Jiangnan, she recognized what she wanted in her love with Xu Zhimo, and met a marriage of deep affection between the two of them, and there was a "blue face confidant" who was willing to marry her for life, this vigorous and tragic life, which finally ended in that eternal April day on earth, and let everyone remember the name lin Huiyin.
I have to say that Bai Luomei's Lin Huiyin is more in line with the aesthetics of the market public, just imagine, a talented and beautiful everyone, there are 3 important, full of talent and romance in life, absolutely all women's dream life, so this book can be widely circulated.
At the same time, Lin Hui's criticism of the point also exists in the pen of people who have an important influence on literature, such as Bing Xin and Qian Zhongshu.
Putting aside Bingxin's evaluation of Lin Huiyin's appearance, most of her words actually reflect that she does not like Lin Huiyin as a person. In that article, titled "Our Wife's Living Room," it was basically a satire that the so-called "wife" became a socialite who could speak the word, but the wife's husband was a lewd man full of a market mentality.
If this article is indeed ironic to Lin Huiyin, as everyone imagines, then Lin Huiyin in Bingxin's eyes is just a social flower of a watery Yang flower, of course, after the publication of this article, this has also become an inherent impression of Lin Huiyin by most people.
The second is Qian Zhongshu's evaluation of Lin Huiyin. It is undeniable that Qian Zhongshu also does not like Lin Huiyin, he does not like women like Lin Huiyin who can talk in front of everyone, in his cognition, all women in the world should be like Yang Dai, a bird like Yang Dai, and tenderly teach their husbands and children.
Here is also a mention of the famous public knowledge Gao Xiaosong, who once pointed out in an interview that he did not like female intellectuals like Lin Huiyin. Perhaps such words are just a simple ridicule in his heart, but they reflect a kind of disrespect and even discrimination against women, from this point of view, Gao Xiaosong and Qian Zhongshu's views on Lin Huiyin have reached a consensus across time.
Third, what is the real Lin Huiyin like?
But in fact, who can say that girls who have read books are not cute? Everyone's evaluation of Lin Huiyin is nothing more than an irrational judgment mixed with personal feelings, and from an objective point of view, Lin Huiyin's life is definitely not as unbearable and offensive as the above few people said.
You know, when Lin Huiyin was studying in the fine arts department of Penn University, he also completed all the architecture courses at the same time, and the architecture department at that time did not recruit girls, because the vast majority of women were like Qian Zhongshu's mouth, and the goal of life was to teach her husband and children for her husband.
After Lin Huiyin married Liang Sicheng, the so-called honeymoon trip between the two was actually to go to Europe for a classical architectural investigation, with an academic task, and did not lose love as everyone said. What's more, after Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng returned to China, they directly gave up the preferential treatment proposed by Tsinghua University and went to Northeastern University to create an architecture department, just to cultivate more architectural talents.
Lin Huiyin herself suffered from a rather serious lung disease, and during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, she could only lie on the floor of the hotel with a high fever, but she still had the confidence to answer everyone's question of "why don't you run away with your child", and Dayi said awe-inspiringly, "Behind me is the Yangtze River".
In the last moments of her life, this woman devoted all her enthusiasm to the field of architecture, and even endured severe pain to learn English for Lin Su when she was sick in bed.
On the other hand, Lin Su constantly said in literary works that Lin Huiyin was not good, and those big and small details seemed to have been seen with her own eyes. Combined with Lin Huiyin's death, she actually married Liang Sicheng, which can be reversed, and the authenticity of her so-called works may not be high.
brief summary
In fact, the world's understanding of Lin Huiyin comes from various literary works, but if we make a false conclusion about Lin Huiyin through these things, it should be just a blasphemy against another era.
In the literary world, there is a saying called "literati are light on each other", and the reasons why the two intellectuals look at each other unfavorably are mostly just different value orientations and cultural interests, just like Lin Huiyin in Bingxin's eyes and Lin Huiyin in Qian Zhongshu's eyes, who can guarantee that the Lin Huiyin they write is the real Lin Huiyin?
Therefore, Lin Hui should not be just a poet, let alone a person who is popular in the wind and moon field, she is a truly knowledgeable architect, but also a respectable, flesh-and-blood woman who drags a sick body to fight against the cruel era.
