Speaking of talented women, there have been them since ancient times. Of course, most of the talented women in history are from the Qinglou, although they are talented, but they are inevitably criticized by the world, even if there are talented women from the families of officials and eunuchs, they are only literary and brilliant. It seems that the impression given by talented women is that they are just women with some talent and beauty.
Such a woman is cute, more emotional, or talented, so no matter what kind of origin, it can always attract the world's attention and make the world admire, regardless of men and women, this may be a talented woman's fatal charm.
However, it is also because of the feudal society that women's freedom is limited, so talented women will have such a label, making people feel more like a talented beauty.
In modern times, women's social status and freedom have been greatly improved, so women's talents are not only limited to the literary and ink on the rice paper, but also in science, architecture, military, etc., women can also show their style, such women have some talent, that is, beauty, wisdom and talent in one of the world's talented women.
Lin Huiyin is such an immortal talented woman in the Republic of China period, she was born in a family of officials and eunuchs who have been reading for generations, she has heard about Traditional Chinese studies since she was a child, and she has a poetic and calligraphy temperament, and she has made great achievements in the field of architecture, and she was a famous female poet and architect at that time.
Such a nearly perfect woman has been sought after by countless people, but it has also been reprimanded by many masters of the Republic of China. In the final analysis, it is only Lin Huiyin, a rational and sensual woman, who struggles and wanders in love and marriage.
Talented woman Lin Huiyin
Lin Huiyin's original name was Lin Huiyin, taken from the ancient book "Shi Daya Siqi" in the "Great Concubine Huiyin, then Baisi Male", and later because she had the same name as a male literati at that time, she finally changed her name to Lin Huiyin.
Lin Huiyin was a lucky woman, she was born in a family with a lot of family background, her grandfather was Lin Xiaoke, a jinshi in the Guangxu years, and she was in the same department as Kang Youwei, one of the six gentlemen of The Five Emperors at that time.
During the Qing Dynasty, Lin Huiyin's grandfather worked as an official in many places around Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and was a rather open-minded person. Later, Lin Huiyin's grandfather also sent Lin Huiyin's father to study abroad, and Lin Huiyin's father studied at Waseda University in Japan.
It can be said that Lin Huiyin's family is a new-style family with a bureaucratic family background, and Lin Huiyin's family is extremely eager for advanced knowledge and ideas from abroad.
Lin Huiyin was born in such a family, which naturally allowed her to have a good education from an early age, and she was more accomplished in literature, plus many of her family members studied abroad, and she also came into contact with a lot of foreign knowledge and ideas from an early age.
In the era of ideological emancipation in the Republic of China, Lin Huiyin was constantly learning advanced knowledge from the West when he was learning Eastern culture.
Therefore, Lin Huiyin is different from other women, she not only has the unique perception of female literati, but also has a crazy obsession with the field of architecture. Literati are sensual, but the logical behavior of architecture is structured under the cold is rational, Lin Huiyin is such a talented woman, in architecture she rationally and reasonably constructs each building, but on rice paper, she is emotionally sprinkled with the love of the literati.
A woman has both sensual femininity and rational decisiveness, such a woman, just like the warmth and cold in early spring, is the most sobering warmth. Such a talented woman, such a beauty, such a master, itself has a fatal attraction, people have to admire, and the talented woman has become the symbol of Lin Huiyin.
April day on earth
If Lin Huiyin is a heavenly woman because of the coexistence of her unique rationality and sensibility, then it is also because of this unique rationality and sensibility that makes her a person who is criticized by the literati masters of the Republic of China.
Once Lin Huiyin wrote a book --- "You Are an April Day on Earth", which tells the story of when she studied in London, she met the romantic talent Xu Zhimo, and quickly fell in love with Xu Zhimo.
Originally, the talent match was a good match that could not be better, and everyone was optimistic about the lovers, perhaps she herself thought the same.
Unfortunately, in the Republic of China period, the idea of free love has not yet been popularized, at least not among the elderly, although Lin Huiyin and Xu Zhimo are combined, family lineage and mendi are not a problem, but the problem is that Lin Huiyin met Xu Zhimo too late, Xu Zhimo's parents had already married Xu Zhimo in his hometown.
Although Xu Zhimo did not like his wife with small feet wrapped, in that era, it was still the fate of his parents, and Xu Zhimo had to admit the legitimacy of his wife.
When Lin Huiyin fell in love with Xu Zhimo, she did not know that Xu Zhimo had a wife, and when she knew, she was not as entangled as other women, she quickly had a decision, resolutely left Xu Zhimo, and after returning to China, she fell in love with Liang Sicheng, the son of the Lin family, and quickly married.
It can be said that Lin Huiyin's decision was extremely rational, she abided by the moral code of marriage at that time, but she really abandoned Xu Zhimo and abandoned love.
Perhaps in the eyes of modern people, Lin Huiyin is correct, but at that time, the vices of men's three wives and four concubines had not yet been abandoned, and in the literati circle at that time, many masters were already married in their hometowns, but they still married beloved women in the city, and really achieved the perfect combination of civilization and old-fashioned marriage in that era.
In the eyes of these literati, Lin Huiyin is tantamount to playing with Xu Zhimo's feelings, which is unfaithful to love, and as for the harm to the family and the original match, it seems that it is not after the consideration of these literati.
Later, Xu Zhimo wrote goodbye to Kangqiao, and his love with Lin Huiyin was even more regrettable, and he was also sympathized by the literati at that time. And Lin Hui, who was rational and ruthless, became the object of verbal criticism by male literati.
Three-person deformed marriage
If it is said that Lin Hui died in an unfortunate old-style marriage due to her love with Xu Zhimo, and the triangular relationship between her husband Liang Sicheng and her friend Jin Yuelin after marriage is more like the siege of the city in reality.
Although Lin Huiyin and her husband Liang Sicheng are because of the same interests, similar family lineage, and finally happy marriage, there is love between them, there is also material security, it is reasonable to say that their marriage should only be happy.
But in fact, who can guarantee that the marriage in the besieged city has not changed, even if there is no material support and resonance in this besieged city, it will not be able to withstand the trivialities of tea, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar in the years, what passion, what warmth, what beauty, will be corroded by these little bits, slowly disappearing in time.
Of course, many couples in this process, slowly accept each other, and finally accept each other's everything with compromise, but there are more couples, and finally parting ways and behaving strangely.
Marriage is the graveyard of love, and no one can change it, because no one wants to always wrong themselves for the sake of others. Once it was possible, that was the role of hormones under love, but love is gone, who can remain unchanged?
No one knows what kind of consumption Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng had in their marriage, but in the end, when Jin Yuelin appeared, Lin Huiyin was touched by such a man who loved and embraced himself, and finally she said to her husband Liang Sicheng that she was in love with other men, liang Sicheng did not blame his wife, but encouraged Lin Huiyin to bravely pursue his love.
Of course, in the end, Jin Yuelin and Lin Huiyin did not walk together, because Jin Yuelin was ashamed of Liang Sicheng and withdrew from this triangle relationship.
From a rational point of view, Jin Yuelin's decision was correct, just as Lin Huiyin withdrew from Xu Zhimo's marriage that year, but from a sentimental point of view, the love between Jin Yuelin and Lin Huiyin was lost to the marriage.
epilogue:
Lu Xun once wrote "My Lost Love", which is to say that Lin Huiyin abandoned Xu Zhimo and lost his heart. Qian Zhongshu's "Cat" and Bingxin's "Mrs. Pingxin's Living Room" are both said that Lin Huiyin likes weekend parties after marriage, and how Lin Huiyin has the heart to socialize during the party, is actually a person who is emotionally unfaithful.
Honestly, Lin Huiyin is indeed a rational woman, which can be seen from her abandonment of her love with Xu Zhimo. Ke Lin Huiyin is also a sensual woman, which can also be reflected in her desperate love affair with Jin Yuelin later. In the eyes of men, women are sensual, so that they are cute, in women's eyes, women should be rational, so as to avoid being unbearable, but Lin Hui is both emotional and rational, and there are still some out of place.
