The lives of the two sisters, Song Qingling and Song Meiling, have experienced various ups and downs, but because the two chose different paths, the two sisters eventually went their separate ways. In the twilight of Song Qingling's twilight years, he wrote a letter to Song Meiling who was far away in the United States, wanting to meet with Song Meiling before his death, but Song Meiling did not return to China to reunite with Song Qingling until the end of his life, because of the different political positions of the two, song Meiling was left.
Song Qingling died of illness in 1981, in accordance with Song Qingling's last wishes, Song Qingling and his parents were buried in the Song Family Cemetery in Shanghai, and since then the leaves have fallen back to their roots, and Song Qingling's biggest regret is that he could not get together with Song Meiling before he died, and this is also Song Meiling's regret, Song Meiling was also buried with his eldest sister Song Xiaoling and his brother-in-law for various reasons, although he could not fall leaves and return to the roots, but he always had a relative to accompany him.
In order to commemorate Song Qingling, the Song Family Cemetery was expanded, and a Song Qingling sculpture was also built for the Song Family Cemetery, and there is also a special Song Qingling Memorial Hall for future generations to remember this great man, and there are also special personnel to clean it here.
The cemetery of Song Meiling in the United States is located on the top floor of the family cemetery, the environment is quiet, surrounded by flowers, although it is not as open as the Song Qingling cemetery, but it is also an excellent place. But Song Meiling was not satisfied with her cemetery before she died, not because Song Meiling felt that the place was small, but Song Meiling also wanted to fall back to the roots like Song Qingling and be buried with her parents, but Song Meiling's wish could not be realized.
Song Meiling also said to her niece before she died that if it were not for the pursuit of power politics, she would also be a person with a motherland, and she would be able to accompany Song Qingling through the last days, nor would she let Song Qingling read herself until her death, and she would not be unable to return to the Song family cemetery to bury with her parents.
The reason for all this is also because of the turbulent society at that time, although both of them were working hard for the country, but because of the difference in roads, the end became the way it is now. But even so, Song Meiling made some dedication to the country in the War of Resistance Against Japan, and we must keep it in mind.
