Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng can be called the models of talented women in the Republic of China period, and they are the exemplary images in the literati circle at that time. However, no one expected that soon after Lin Huiyin's death, Liang Sicheng would ignore the opposition of everyone and have to marry Lin Su, who had no appearance and no talent, why was this?
(Lin Huiyin and Liang Sicheng)
Speaking of which, when Lin Huiyin died, Liang Sicheng was only 54 years old, coupled with his frail health and illness, and his children were not around, which made him inevitably feel decadent and wandering.
During Liang Sicheng's illness, Lin Su appeared in time and has been carefully caring for Liang Sicheng. Verbal comfort and careful care, bit by bit, made Liang Sicheng feel a warmth that he had never felt before.
In this year, Lin Su was also the wife of the well-known scholar Cheng Yingquan, and only recently gave birth to his second daughter, Lin Tong. So, why did she have to take care of Liang Sicheng?
It turned out that Lin Su and Lin Huiyin were fellow villagers, and she had been taken care of by Lin Huiyin, and coincidentally, her husband Cheng Yingquan was also a student of Liang Sicheng, so when she and Cheng Yingquan married, Lin Huiyin not only funded her, but also let Liang Sicheng be the main marriage between her and Cheng Yingquan, which made their wedding a lot more colorful.
Since then, the two families have their own busyness, and there is little contact between them. Like two parallel lines, there is no intersection.
At that time, Cheng Yingquan was a professor in the Department of Architecture at Tsinghua University. Although Lin Su only had a high school degree, the school let Lin Su enter the Department of Architecture of Tsinghua University as a secretary in order to let Cheng Yingquan teach with peace of mind.
Lin Su and Cheng Yingquan's married life is as bland as others, except that they have added a pair of children, which makes Cheng Yingquan, who has always loved children, quite happy.
However, later, Cheng Yingquan suffered a blow in a special era in order to protect ancient buildings. Lin Su was also implicated by Cheng Yingquan and was transferred to the data room to become an administrator.
Lin Su is a pragmatist, and she saw that Cheng Yingquan had made a mistake and that she herself was implicated, so she took the initiative to ask for a divorce from Cheng Yingquan the following year. According to her meaning, her divorce was a last resort and a consideration for the future of her two children.
(Lim Soo)
After the divorce, Lin Su put her two children back to her hometown for foster care, while she constantly went in and out of Liang Sicheng's family.
On the one hand, she is to better take care of Liang Sicheng, on the other hand, Lin Su took the initiative to help Liang Sicheng sort out the information. This not only allows Liang Sicheng to have no worries in life, but also has an extra deputy at work, so Liang Sicheng feels that Lin Su is a good woman who knows cold and knows hot, and gradually developed strange feelings for her.
According to What Lin Su said in his memoirs, Liang Sicheng once wrote her a courtship letter, in which he expressed his direct sigh, saying that he could not have dreamed that she would suddenly come at this time, not only breaking the loneliness for many years, but also bringing great happiness to herself.
That is to say, Lin Su and Liang Sicheng seem to be Liang Sicheng pursuing Lin Su, and they are also uneasy because they confessed their hearts, lest Lin Su blame him.
Of course, the truth does not matter who chases whom first. Importantly, Lin Soo and Liang Sicheng decided to live together after breaking the window paper.
The year was 1962, and Liang Sicheng and Lin Su made plans to get married.
As soon as the news spread, it was immediately opposed by countless people, and there were three reasons for opposition.
First, as a teacher, Liang Sicheng actually married the wife of a student, which was unacceptable to public opinion.
Second, when Liang Sicheng was wronged, Cheng Yingquan, as a student, stepped forward and spoke up for him. Now he has taken Cheng Yingquan's wife, which is obviously an act of injustice.
Third, because Lin Su left Cheng Yingquan at the most difficult time, everyone felt that her character was dirty. Besides, she wasn't highly educated. Whether it is from the character, appearance or talent, everything is too far from Lin Huiyin, which is obviously not a good match for Liang Sicheng.
(Liang Sicheng and Lin Su)
Therefore, Liang Sicheng's old friends have told Liang Sicheng that if he marries Lin Su, he will end up with his friends.
Liang Sicheng's family also objected, and his siblings once jointly wrote him a letter saying that as long as he married Lin Su, everyone would cut off contact with him.
However, Liang Sicheng resisted the pressure and held a simple marriage ceremony with Lin Su. Since then, Liang Sicheng's old close friends, children, and younger siblings have really drifted away from him.
Later, Liang Sicheng was also hit in the movement.
At the time, it was thought that Lin Su would once again divorce Liang Sicheng like a virus.
Unexpectedly, this time, Lin Su actually chose to suffer with Liang Sicheng. Although she was also affected, she became more and more considerate of Liang Sicheng's illness.
In addition, since Lin Huiyin's death, Liang Sicheng has been paying for Lin Huiyin's mother. In order not to let Liang Sicheng worry about the well-being of his mother-in-law, Lin Su took the initiative to take care of Lin Huiyin's mother.
Liang Sicheng, who was mentally and physically tortured, could not withstand the impact and criticism again and again, and eventually fell ill. This time, although Lin Su was around, he could not survive, and before he died, he looked at Chen Zhanxiang, who came to see him, and said: "Zhan Xiang, thanks to Lin Su in the past few years!" ”
Probably, Liang Sicheng still felt that everyone was unfair to Lin Su until his death, so he would defend Lin Su like this before he died!
