Mention the name Lin Changmin, many people may not be very familiar with it, but his brother is very famous, he is one of the famous Huanghuagang Seventy-two Martyrs Lin Juemin. Lin Changmin was born in 1876 at the end of the Qing Dynasty, and his father had served as a jinshi during the Guangxu years and served as a magistrate for many years in Haining and Shimen, Zhejiang. Influenced by his father, Lin Changmin also took the imperial examination as the goal of his efforts in his early years, and passed the show talent. When Lin Changmin was 18 years old, the Sino-Japanese War broke out between China and Japan, in which the Qing government was defeated and a humiliating treaty was signed.
The defeat of the Sino-Japanese War deeply stimulated Lin Changmin, who decisively gave up the imperial examination, went to Japan to study, and became very interested in the constitutional monarchy, during which he became acquainted with a large number of constitutionalists who stayed in Japan, and became friends with Yang Du, Song Jiaoren and others. After returning to China, Lin Changmin successively served as a member of the House of Representatives of the Republic of China and the chief justice of Duan Qirui's cabinet, becoming a popular figure in the early days of the Republic of China. Lin Changmin was very successful in his career, but his attitude towards his wife He Xueyuan was criticized.
In Lin Changmin's early years, his father once arranged a marriage for him, but within a few years of marriage, his wife died of illness, and he failed to give Lin Changmin a man and a half woman. At that time, people's ideological concepts were still very old, believing that "no filial piety has three, and no posterity is greater." In order to continue the Lin family's incense, his father once again married a wife to Lin Changmin, and she was He Xueyuan. He Xueyuan's father is a small workshop owner, the family is still quite solid, He Xueyuan has been pampered since childhood, so her personality is more spicy, and after the two get married, they often quarrel over some small things.
Fortunately, He Xueyuan's stomach was more contentious, and she gave birth to a son and two daughters, and the Lin family looked at her differently. Unfortunately, two of the three children died and only one daughter survived. The child died prematurely, He Xueyuan's mood was very sad, and it was the time when she needed comfort, but her husband was becoming increasingly cold to her. Soon after, he actually took another concubine, and after this concubine passed through the door, he gave birth to four sons to the Lin family. In this way, the Lin family naturally attaches great importance to her, and Lin Changmin is even more fond of her.
Soon after, Lin Changmin made a very excessive move, and even drove He Xueyuan's mother and daughter to live in the backyard, and did not come to see his wife for ten days and a half. If it is left behind now, it is estimated that He Xueyuan and Lin Changmin would have divorced a long time ago, but in that era, if a woman divorced her husband, no matter how legitimate the reason, she would be ridiculed by her neighbors. Therefore, for her husband's cold reception, He Xueyuan can only endure in silence. Fortunately, her daughter was very competitive, and when she grew up, she became an outstanding architect, poet and writer in modern and modern China, and personally participated in the design of the Monument to the People's Heroes and the National Emblem of the People's Republic of China. Her 4 half-brothers are unknown.
