"The Haruka brothers ascended to the heights, and there was one less person planted everywhere."
Flesh and blood brothers, brotherly affection, inseparable blood, and constant brotherhood, so that they are born with the most intimate relationship in the world.
During the Republic of China period, the three sisters of the Song family were once intimate and friendly with each other, but as time gradually passed, the three flower buds on a branch also bloomed with different colors of flowers and embarked on different life paths.
These three sisters were all objects of envy in the eyes of the world, and each of them was a storm figure who could turn his hand over the clouds and rain at that time, but the relationship between them gradually became estranged.
The deep affection in the boudoir when he was young was consumed by time and the world, and the sisters of a mother and brother would also be strangers.
Song Qingling also tried to make a save, sending a letter to her little sister Song Meiling before she died, hoping to see her for the last time.
But he only got an eight-word reply: although the flesh and bones are close, the road is heavy.
In the end, Song Meiling did not return to China to mourn for her sister, why did the sisterhood come to this step?
Famous boudoir show
The Song family has left a strong mark in modern history, known as the "first family of the Republic of China".
His father, Song Yaoru, was a well-known industrialist, and his mother, Ni Guizhen, was a descendant of Xu Guangqi, and the three sons of this family had a certain impact on the development of modern China, the most notable of which were the three daughters Song Yiling, Song Qingling and Song Meiling.
Born at the end of the 19th century, the three sisters of the Song family grew up in a rich and open family, the parents did not have the slightest idea of preferring sons to daughters, and the importance of the three daughters was no less than that of the three sons, so they enjoyed good material conditions from an early age, and also received a very good education.
The three sisters are beautiful in appearance, elegant in temperament, very deep in feelings since childhood, no matter where they go, they are inseparable, they have nothing to talk about, and their well-behaved and cute appearance is very likable, and they have also become a model for everyone at that time.
These three sisters, who grew up intimately, grew up in the same family environment, had similar educational experiences, and all went overseas to receive advanced education, but they developed completely different personalities.
The eldest sister, Song Xialing, is smart and bold and pays attention to reality, the second sister Song Qingling is gentle and quiet, quite idealistic, and the younger sister Song Meiling is the most eccentric and open-minded.
These three distinct personalities also prompted them to choose three completely different partners in the future, embarked on three different paths in life, and also gave them different impressions of the world.
The rupture of the relationship between the three sisters also began with their respective marriages.
Convergence and separation
Between the three sisters, the most acute contradiction is Song Qingling and Song Meiling, as the eldest sister Song Xiaoling has always been sandwiched between the two like lubricant, and has tried many times to ease the contradiction between the two.
Soong Ching Ling's marriage to Sun Yat-sen was strongly opposed by the Soong family, but she still disregarded the world's vision and was not afraid of the danger lurking around Sun Yat-sen, and resolutely married him, and since then she has firmly followed in her husband's footsteps and firmly defended his republican ideals.
After hearing that Chiang Kai-shek had launched a strong pursuit of his younger sister, Soong Ching-ling first objected, believing that the purpose of this person was not pure and that he was deliberately approaching for political and economic interests, so he persuaded Soong Mei-ling many times.
But at that time, Song Meiling had been lost in love, not only taking her sister's words as the wind in her ears, but also dissatisfied with the second sister, and the contradiction between the two also laid the groundwork, after Song Meiling got married, the exchanges between the two sisters became less and less.
After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the three Sisters of the Song Clan reunited again after many years, when Song Meiling was the first lady who called the wind and rain, Song Qingling was the mother of the country who worried about the country and the people, and Song Xialing was the wife of the banker Kong Xiangxi.
In the face of two slightly embarrassed sisters, Song Xialing tried to reconcile the atmosphere, took the initiative to talk about the interesting things in childhood, and slowly the three of them laughed together, repeatedly returning to the once carefree time.
This sister reunion made Soong Ching Ling particularly emotional, because she has been living in simplicity since Sun Yat-sen's death, and she actually misses her family very much in her heart, and her relationship with her sister has eased slightly.
Death
But what people did not expect was that the hasty meeting in Chongqing turned out to be the last meeting of the three sisters, after which the three completely parted ways.
In those days in Chongqing, in order to promote the establishment of the united front, Song Qingling also called on the two sisters to participate in the anti-war fundraising activities together, and gave a speech to fight for the same goal, which also became a rare warm moment in their adult memories.
After that separation, the three of them returned to their own life tracks, Song Hailing strategized in the capital field, Song Qingling still adhered to the will of her husband and did her part for the country, while Song Meiling firmly held the power in her hands and became the "first lady" with huge international influence.
After the Liberation War, the eldest sister and the younger sister both left the mainland one after another.
Only Song Qingling remained alone in his homeland
, sticking to the land she loves.
In his later years, looking at the steady progress of the new China, Song Qingling was quite pleased, but at the same time he occasionally missed his two sisters who were far away. She occasionally wrote letters to her sister and sister, and once invited her eldest sister in the United States back to her old house to meet, but she never waited for her to return.
Before Song Qingling's death, Song Meiling had received a letter from her second sister who was critically ill.
She was invited to return to China to mourn for her sister, but after seeing this letter, Song Meiling could only write eight words with a pen: Although the flesh and bones are close, the road is important.
brief summary:
The three sisters, who were once inseparable, eventually became strangers because of their different life pursuits and ideals and beliefs.
After all, they are flesh and blood brothers and sisters, they must have concerns and worries about each other in their hearts, even if the emotional rift can be repaired, but under the torrent of the times, personal emotions are not enough to be called a ship over the mountains and seas, crossing the gap between them.
They said goodbye to each other, but in the end they could not see each other again, and could only look at each other from afar across the boundless ocean and reminisce about the good times alone.
The three sisters of the Song family, who have left a strong mark in modern history, can not go back to the carefree childhood that they once had slept and accompanied each other.
