She was scolded by Lu Xun as a "widow's school" and sacrificed herself to save the majority of women, and the Chinese people owed her an apology

The long river of history is running endlessly, there are calm waves, there are also waves, let Xiaobian take you into history and understand history.

In the tenth year of the Qing Dynasty (1884 AD), Yang Yinyu was born in a large family in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province. Yang Yinyu was born in a large family, but because she was not outstanding in appearance and stubborn in personality, she was not liked by her parents from an early age. On the contrary, the older cousin liked her very much, thinking that she was a very talented and unusual person, so he sent her to a Western-style school and became the first batch of women to receive a Western-style education. Later, due to the tradition of her parents, Yang Yinyu also failed to escape the clutches of arranged marriages.

Later, she bravely escaped from the feudal arranged marriage, and then never married again for the rest of her life, devoting herself to academics. She studied in the United States and received a master's degree in education from Columbia University. After returning to China, she became the first female university president in modern Chinese history. Although Ms. Yang Yinyu has culture, but she is rigid in her thinking, requiring students to only study and not participate in politics, once expelled Lu Xun's lover Xu Guangping to progress students, so Lu Xun was fiercely criticized and scolded as a "widow's school", and wrote the chapter "Widowism" to satirize her.

In the second half of 1925, the tide of female teachers was getting higher and higher, and in August Yang Yinyu proposed his resignation, and at the end of the year, the Duan Qirui government had no choice but to restore the women's normal university and revoke Yang Yinyu's position as principal. After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese army invaded Suzhou, and the Japanese army invading China asked Yang Yinyu to take up a false post, but she strictly refused, and Yang Yinyu faced the atrocities of the Japanese army invading China in Suzhou, and went to the Japanese army headquarters several times to protest. One day, when several women chased by the Japanese army fled to Yang Yinyu's house in Panmen Xinqiao Lane, Yang Yinyu immediately and bravely stood up and negotiated with the Japanese army in Japanese.

As a result, Yang Yinyu became a thorn in the eye of the Japanese army, so on New Year's Day in 1938, two Japanese people tricked Yang Yinyu out of the house and fired a shot at the back of the Wumen Bridge and hit him in the river... It was still cold winter, the weather was very cold, Yang Yinyu was struggling in the river, and two Japanese soldiers continued to shoot on the bridge until the river was stained red...

Later, a carpenter who built a house for her buried the body fished out of the water. The coffin is too thin to work, it does not work, when the family takes the body, it is impossible to replace the coffin, and there is no ready-made extra-large coffin to be put on the outside, so it is necessary to quickly add a thick layer of wooden planks to the coffin. Yang Once recalled, "... I saw my mother's coffin followed by the strange coffin of the third aunt, and the wooden planks were hastily closed, too late to shave or paint. The coffin seemed to symbolize the three aunts' bumpy and awkward life. ”

From reading this in the book, I unconsciously compared Yang Yinyu with Zhou Zuoren. In the great wave of female teachers, Zhou Zuoren conformed to the development of the historical trend and supported the student movement, but during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, he took up a false post and became a despised traitor. Yang Yinyu, on the contrary, although abandoned by the students in the tide of female teachers, in the face of the murderous Japanese army, not only refused to take up a false post, but also personally entered the tiger's den and denounced the atrocities of the Japanese army, which was a heroic act and showed the awe-inspiring national integrity of the sons and daughters of China. It seems that for a person, it is inevitable that it is a little too simple to rely on a momentary matter to make a conclusive conclusion, and the past cannot indicate the present, and the present cannot explain the past, but the fact is that the Chinese people owe Yang Yinyu an apology.
