She was Japanese, but she took a Chinese name, did not speak Japanese herself, did not teach her children to learn Japanese, but held high the anti-Japanese banner. Her daughter is married to the well-known scientist Qian Xuesen.
Her name is Jiang Zuomei, and she is the wife of the military scientist Jiang Baili who crossed the heavy ocean and pursued her with great painstaking efforts.
Jiang Samehara is a Japanese nurse named Sato Yaden.
In 1913, Sato Yaden was ordered to come to Baoding with military doctors to treat Jiang Baili, then the principal of the Baoding Military Academy. When he first met Jiang Baili, Sato was frightened.
Jiang Baili's military uniform had been stained red with blood, and his body that had lost too much blood was very weak, fortunately, the bullet that hit his chest did not hit the point, and there was no need for major surgery. The doctor told Sato to pay extra attention, and no one could afford to wait for an accident.
Sato took good care of him every day, but one day, she discovered a secret that Jiang Baili hid under his pillow: he didn't eat a single sleeping pill he begged every day, and he was preparing to commit suicide.
In order to untie the knot in the heart of this "patient", Sato went to investigate and understand, only to learn that Jiang Baili was the acting president of the Army University, and he repeatedly demanded military funds for the students without success, and only then was he angry enough to raise a gun and commit suicide.
Sato is particularly able to understand him and is secretly determined to open a knot in his heart and rekindle hope in life.
When Jiang Baili asked her again for sleeping pills, Sato directly refused: "Your life is not just your own. Death is only an escape, and only by living can we serve our country. ”
Jiang Baili looked at the woman in astonishment and heard her say, "In japan, suicide is regarded as cowardice, and only by living strongly is a brave person." ”
Sato finished speaking and left, but the words burned into Jiang Baili's heart.
From that moment on, this woman entered Jiang Baili's heart, and when she came again, he was particularly happy.
He would secretly observe her: her eyebrows, her hands, her figure so beautiful, her steps so light, her voice so soft and beautiful. Love is a good medicine, Jiang Baili has a light in his eyes, and he has lost all sleeping pills.
Jiang Baili opened his heart to Sato and confided in her his ideal of saving the country.
Jiang Baili's body quickly recovered, and he was about to be discharged from the hospital, and if he did not grasp the timetable, there would be no chance. One day, when no one was around, he confessed to Sato: "It was you who gave me hope for life again, and I can't live without you." What if you're not around and I'm sad and desperate? Please stay with me! ”
However, in the face of this sudden courtship, Sato fled in a panic.
Three weeks later, Sato left Baoding and returned to Beijing. Jiang Baili suddenly felt that life was gone, and when his body first recovered, he resigned and went north to recuperate at the hospital where Sato worked.
Jiang Baili's arrival surprised Sato, but she was not happy about Jiang Baili's pursuit. Who knew that Jiang Baili actually proposed marriage directly, and also found the previous attending doctor to help persuade him.
The doctor said to Sato, "Mr. Jiang is madly in love with you, let me help him ask you to kiss you, hoping that you will marry him." ”
Sato's face was blushing, and he hurried away on the pretext of having something.
In the following days, Jiang Baili talked to her every day. Where can women stand this? Although she also liked the Chinese general, she did not want to agree to his marriage proposal, because she knew that he already had a wife in his hometown, and because the two belonged to different countries.
Sato rejected Jiang Baili and left again. This time, she not only left the hospital, but also left China and returned to Japan.
Jiang Baili continued to pursue me relentlessly, writing hundreds of letters with earnest words: "I survived because of you, and if you ignore me again, I will still die." If you don't go back to China, I'll come to Japan and die in your house, this time for you. ”
Jiang Baili's infatuation deeply touched Sato, and she tossed and turned for many days, and finally made up her mind to come to China to marry Jiang Baili.
However, Sato's parents did not agree to the marriage. She had to take out hundreds of letters that Jiang Baili had given herself, and her father read the letters before he stopped objecting.
In the winter of 1914, Sato finally came to China again and held a grand wedding with Jiang Baili at the Tianjin Hotel. On this day, Jiang Baili took the meaning of his favorite plum blossom and gave his beloved wife the Chinese name "Jiang Zuomei".
After marriage, Jiang Zuomei accompanied Jiang Baili and followed her husband around. But she had no complaints, even if she was often financially strapped. This Japanese woman, like a traditional Chinese woman, takes care of her family's life in an orderly manner.
Jiang Zuomei gave birth to five daughters, and she taught her children carefully, but never taught them to speak Japanese.
In 1931, the September 18 Incident infuriated Jiang Baili, who also supported China and followed her husband to denounc Japanese militarism. Since then, Jiang Zuomei has not spoken a word of Japanese.
In 1938, only one year after the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression was in full swing, General Jiang Baili died suddenly. Because jiang Zuomei is a Japanese citizen, he is suspected of being a "murderer". She endured great grief, never refuted the misunderstanding she had suffered, but just silently endured and silently raised her children.
She took the children to the anti-Japanese donation office and donated all her jewelry and other valuables. After that, Jiang Zuomei also went to the anti-Japanese front to care for Chinese soldiers.
On the anti-Japanese front, almost no one knew that Jiang Zuomei was Japanese, because she only spoke Chinese, and every time she shouted anti-Japanese slogans, she was particularly loud. She had completely lived like a Chinese.
This beautiful woman, when she chose to marry Jiang Baili, chose China. This choice made her not return to Japan for the rest of her life, she lived as a plum blossom in the heart of General Jiang Baili, and it was her mission as a Chinese to participate in the War of Resistance Against Japan.
She and Jiang Baili had 5 daughters, of which Jiang Ying later married Qian Xuesen.
Jiang Ying is also like a mother, beautiful and gentle, caring and considerate to her husband, and fully supporting the scientific research cause of the motherland.
A good woman is the best feng shui in a family, because a good family style must be passed down from generation to generation.
