As everyone knows, Zhang Xueliang was an active anti-Japanese element, a key figure in launching the "Xi'an Incident," and he was the national hero who prompted the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to cooperate for the second time and advocated foreign resistance against Japan and civil war. Tang Degang once said that he was a man who could do the three professions of playboy, politician, and military man, so people cared not only about his military experience, but also about all aspects of his life and family. Zhang Xueliang is undoubtedly a playboy, and he has had many women in his life. And his original wife, who may not be known to everyone, is Yu Fengzhi.
Yu Fengzhi was born in a rich merchant's family, after the Xi'an incident, has been silently accompanying Zhang Xueliang, and then was diagnosed with breast cancer, went to the United States for medical treatment, after the illness in the United States to work hard to make money, rely on their own efforts to support three children, she is a strong, gentle woman, even in the end did not get Zhang Xueliang's care, but she still with a strong will, try to raise children. This is also the reason why her eldest daughter Zhang Luying has a completely different life from her father. Zhang Luying, born in 1916. Zhang Xueliang once sent several children to the Lake Society to learn to paint, Zhang Luying has excellent talent and learning ability, with the guidance of famous teachers such as Qi Baishi, Zhang Luying has a strong ability to paint. In 1933, Zhang Luying accompanied her father to the United States and studied here, and it was also here that she met the most important person in her life, her husband, Tao Pengfei.
Tao Pengfei is a graduate of Northeastern University and the president of the Sino-American Friendship Association, he was not born into a powerful official and business family, but just a cloth cloth. But because the two have the same interests and intentions, Zhang Luying is deeply in love with this man. She had turned down the opportunity to marry the son of Kong Xiangxi, a banker and wealthy businessman, and she had said that she did not aspire to material life and wealth obtained without labor. After marriage, the two people have a happy, harmonious and happy marriage. They delved into and studied the language themselves, settled in the United States for a long time, accompanied each other, and the two lived a self-sufficient life. This is completely inconsistent with her father's thinking. When her mother Yu Fengzhi was unwell, Zhang Luying took care of the affairs at hand and immediately rushed to her mother's side to help. In the days of the United States, if there is no Companion and Care of Zhang Luying again and again, Yu Fengzhi may not be able to overcome the illness again and again. In this regard, the mother and daughter are extremely similar, and she inherits the gentleness and filial piety of her mother.
In 1990, Zhang Xueliang was fully restored to his personal freedom. So every year in the future, Zhang Luying will fly to Taiwan to visit her father. Nowadays, Zhang Luying is 103 years old, and her words "if you want to marry, you must marry a cloth dress" still deeply affects us, and her completely different life from her father has also brought us enlightenment and thinking.
