The famous Chinese writer Lu Xun, born in 1881, is the founder of modern Chinese literature. During the Republic of China period, Lu Xun was an idol figure in the literary world, and many young students worshipped Lu Xun.
Although his career was successful, Lu Xun's marriage was not happy, and he did not love his wife Juan at all. Zhu An and Lu Xun were not free love, but arranged marriages, and it was Lu Xun's mother who took the initiative to marry Juan for her.
Juan's body is thin, his appearance is average, his forehead is prominent, and his eyes are deeply sunken, which is really not beautiful. And Juan was an old-fashioned woman, with no culture and no common language with Lu Xun.
Lu Xun never gave Zhu An a wife, but regarded her as a gift from his mother. Lu Xun was very cold to Juan and didn't even want to talk to Juan, so Juan had no children after marriage.
Although he had a wife, Lu Xun lived a single life, until middle age, a female student Xu Guangping enthusiastically pursued Lu Xun, so that Lu Xun tasted love. So Lu Xun took Xu Guangping to Shanghai to live, rented a small three-story Western-style building, and hired two servants to do housework.
Xu Guangping did not have to work, he took care of Lu Xun at home, and gave birth to Lu Xun's only son, Zhou Haiying. Lu Xun's wife, Zhu An, lives with Lu Xun's mother in Beijing and takes care of Lu Xun's mother's living.
Lu Xun and Xu Guangping lived together with their son and lived happily for 9 years until Lu Xun died of illness in 1936. After Lu Xun's death, Xu Guangping never remarried. Although she and Lu Xun were never married, she was later known as Lady Lu Xun and was highly respected.
During the 9 years that Lu Xun and Xu Guangping lived together, Lu Xun had a full opportunity to divorce his wife Zhu An, marry Xu Guangping, and give Xu Guangping a formal name. But Lu Xun did not, until his death, his official wife was still Juan, although he never loved Juan.
Xu Guangping was not Lu Xun's wife, and had never married Lu Xun, but had given birth to Lu Xun's only son. However, Lu Xun did not divorce her and marry her, nor did he let her become his official wife. Does Lu Xun love Xu Guangping in the end? It's really hard to say.
Lu Xun did not marry Xu Guangping, which does not mean that he did not love her. If Lu Xun and Xu Guangping were to marry, they would have to marry Zhu An, their wives. And Zhu An was a gift from Lu Xun's mother, and when he returned this gift, he offended his mother. Only after the death of the mother is the best time to return the gift.
However, Lu Xun's mother lived a long life, longer than Lu Xun, and when Lu Xun died of illness, his mother was still alive, so Lu Xun had no chance to divorce his wife Zhu An. Therefore, it is not that Lu Xun does not love Xu Guangping and does not want to marry Xu Guangping, but he cannot find the opportunity to divorce his wife.
