Text | Rice grain mom
A while ago, Milian's mother and friends went to visit the Xu Beihong Memorial Hall.
As a famous modern painter in China and one of the "Three Masters of Jinling", Mr. Xu Beihong has made great contributions to modern art education.
Xu Beihong Memorial Hall has a collection of his works from various periods, and when he saw the real works, the rice grain mother was really shocked.
When browsing, The rice grain mother heard someone talking about Xu Beihong's wife, Jiang Biwei, and suddenly remembered that Jiang Biwei was actually a beautiful and brave Republic of China woman.
Jiang Biwei is not the person who went to the end with Xu Beihong, but the person who accompanied Xu Beihong for the longest time.
She is extremely beautiful and fell in love with Xu Beihong at first sight.
At the age of 18, he eloped with Xu Beihong and accompanied him through the precarious namelessness.
But when Xu Beihong became famous, the two separated, making many "cp fans" feel sorry.
Today, The Rice Mother came to tell their story well.
In 1899, Jiang Biwei was born in Yixing, Jiangsu Province.
The Jiang family is a large family in the local area, the family conditions are very good, Jiang Biwei's father Jiang Meisheng is talented, once a professor at Fudan University.
Since childhood, the elders have deliberately cultivated Jiang Biwei, hoping that she can become a big girl.
When Jiang Biwei was still very young, her parents let her read, and also learned violin and Xiao.
Jiang Biwei also did not live up to the expectations of her parents, and grew into a beautiful girl, she looks beautiful, talks well, can be described as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, proficient in everything.
In the old days, most of the women in the family were betrothed early, and the marriage was decided by the parents. Jiang Biwei is no exception, at the age of 13, her parents promised her to a family in Suzhou, and her fiancé was named Zha Zihan.
If she had not met Xu Beihong, perhaps Jiang Biwei's life would really be as planned by her parents, step by step, get married and have children, and become a rich wife with no worries about food and clothing.
However, when Jiang Biwei was 18 years old, she met Xu Beihong, 22 years old.
Xu Beihong's family was poor, but he had a high talent for painting since childhood, at that time, Jiang's father was teaching at Fudan University, and by chance, Xu Beihong met Jiang Beihong, found that the two were fellow villagers, and invited him to his home as a guest.
Father Jiang admired Xu Beihong's talent, and Xu Beihong also knew how to please the parents of the Jiang family, which made Father Jiang and Mother sigh one after another, if only there were two daughters.
The implication is that if Jiang Biwei had not already promised someone else, she really wanted to marry Xu Beihong.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two young people met, they fell in love at first sight and secretly talked about love.
At that time, Xu Beihong had already been married once, it was an "arranged marriage" arranged by his parents, and as a new youth, he had opposed it, but then he was arrested and returned to get married.
History is always strikingly similar, and The Rice Mother has lost count of the first celebrities in the Republic of China who rebelled against arranged marriages.
But not long after the marriage, Xu Beihong's wife died, and the child also died prematurely, so Xu Beihong became a lonely family again.
The situation on Jiang Biwei's side is that her fiancé Zha Zihan is not very angry, cheating on the exam has been caught, and Jiang Biwei's impression of her fiancé has been greatly reduced.
However, despite this, according to public order and good customs, Jiang Biwei still had a marriage contract on her body and could not be with Xu Beihong.
So what can be done? Only eloped.
At that time, Xu Beihong was preparing to study in Japan, and he could not rest assured that Jiang Biwei would like to go with him, so he asked his friend Zhu Yizhou to send a message and ask Jiang Biwei if she would like to go with him.
Jiang Biwei agreed, ran away from home, and went to Japan with Xu Beihong.
In those days, it was a great shame for the family to elope with a daughter with another man.
Therefore, after Jiang Biwei left, Jiang Biwei's father, for the sake of reputation and in order to be able to give an explanation to the Zha family, had no choice but to lie that Jiang Biwei had died of an acute illness, and also held a funeral and published an obituary in the newspaper.
I wonder what kind of experience Jiang Biwei felt when she saw her death in the newspaper? One of her decisions, gambled on her whole life, home is not going back, there is no way back.
After eloping, Jiang Biwei is no longer a big lady with no worries about food and clothing, their lives are very poor, the paintings cannot be sold, and they have to work hard to save expenses every day.
Fortunately, Xu Beihong was very kind to her, with affection and full of water, and although the days were difficult, they were sweet.
Later, the two returned to China and went to Paris.
Because of the difficulties at hand, Xu Beihong often could not afford to hire models, and could only be played by Jiang Biwei, and many of his famous oil paintings, such as "Piano Lessons" and "Zhensheng" models, were Jiang Biwei.
When Jiang Biwei was pregnant, her life was stretched, the couple was often hungry, and life was not easy.
But despite this, Jiang Biwei is still as willing as a rapture, when in Paris, Xu Beihong liked a popular watch, no money to buy, Jiang Biwei saved a few months and bought it for him.
Sure enough, the women in love are all fools!
Accompany him through the precarious namelessness, witness the growth of a man, the pain of this, I am afraid that it is not clear in one or two sentences.
In 1927, Xu Beihong returned to China and became a professor in the art department of Chuo University, and soon became famous.
However, after the days got better, the feelings of the husband and wife did not become sweeter and sweeter as expected, but became more and more distant, and Jiang Biwei gradually found that she and Xu Beihong had no common topic.
Xu Beihong regarded art as life, and as his work became busier, he gradually snubbed Jiang Biwei, and the distance between husband and wife became farther and farther away.
It was at this time that Jiang Biwei met Zhang Daofan.
Zhang Daofan is also a painter, in a party to meet Xu Beihong and his wife, all are young people, and have stayed in the Yang, as soon as the conversation box is opened, they naturally become friends when they come and go, and a group of people often talk together.
Although Jiang Biwei is married, Zhang Daofan does not care about this at all, he has always admired Jiang Biwei, and also through various means to please and pursue.
In 1926, Zhang Daofan sent a long letter to Jiang Biwei from Italy, which showed his love for Jiang Biwei, sincere feelings, and long affection.
On the one hand is the husband who does not return home all day, and on the other side is a handsome and handsome suitor, saying that he is not moved, that is false.
But after much deliberation, Jiang Biwei still decided to refuse Zhang Daofan's courtship, and she rationally replied with a letter to persuade Zhang Daofan to forget her.
Passionate, stop at courtesy, Jiang Biwei is no longer the 18-year-old girl of the year, this time, reason has overcome everything.
But Jiang Biwei can use reason to overcome emotions, but Xu Beihong may not be able to.
In 1930, Xu Beihong met a female student named Sun Duoci.
She was young and beautiful, talented, and extremely talented in painting, and although she was only an auditor, Xu Beihong, who was discerning and pearl-eyed, quickly noticed her.
Out of "care", Xu Beihong not only gave her private lessons, but also painted a painting for her.
Sun Duoci also admired Xu Beihong very much, and it was not long before the two fell in love.
But soon, Jiang Biwei discovered the exchange between the two, and she was furious and ordered Xu Beihong to quickly break off contact with Sun Duoci.
Xu Beihong superficially agreed, but secretly he still could not let go of Sun Duoci, and the two turned into an underground romance, often writing back and forth.
In 1932, Xu Beihong moved to a new home, and Sun Duoci also specially bought 100 maple seedlings to celebrate.
This move completely angered Jiang Biwei, and she was furious and ordered her subordinates to break all the maple seedlings and burn all the fires.
Perhaps in Xu Beihong's view, his wife did not need to have such a big temper, and he was also very angry, renaming the studio "Wufeng Hall" and engraving a seal to show his dissatisfaction.
In this way, the couple's feelings reached the freezing point, simply separated, and did not live together.
Jiang Biwei's heart was aggrieved, in her opinion, the man who made her run away from home without hesitation when she was eighteen had already changed, and she was not the young man at that time.
Migrain's mother feels that when she is not single, it is not uncommon to meet excellent people, and it is normal for the opposite sex to attract each other; but in the face of these things, every adult needs to maintain sanity, tighten his nerves, and never forget the responsibility on his body.
At that time, the city of Nanjing was full of artillery fire, and whenever danger came, Jiang Biwei could only flee around alone with her children.
It was at this time that she met Zhang Daofan again.
At this time, Zhang Daofan had achieved fame and held an important position, and he reached out to Jiang Biwei when she was in danger, allowing Jiang Biwei and the child to take refuge in his home.
Zhang Daofan still did not forget Jiang Biwei, even though he had married a foreign woman at that time, he still launched an offensive against Jiang Biwei as before.
This time, Jiang Biwei did not refuse, and she became Zhang Daofan's mistress.
The two of you and me, life is sweet, even if they live on the first floor, they often use pen and ink to talk to each other.
Embarrassingly, Xu Beihong, who had been abroad for a long time, returned at this time.
After a long time of entanglement, Xu Beihong and Jiang Biwei eventually divorced. When the divorce was agreed, Jiang Biwei put forward many conditions, demanding one million yuan, forty ancient paintings, one hundred works by Xu Beihong, and Xu Beihong's monthly salary should also be divided into half of her.
Subsequently, Xu Beihong published the news of the divorce of the two in the newspaper.
But even if the two divorced, Zhang Daofan still had no intention of marrying Jiang Biwei.
At this time, Sun Duoci had also been married for a long time.
The dragon slayer eventually became a dragon, and Jiang Biwei had been extremely painful because of the intervention of a third party, and now, she personally inflicted this pain on another woman.
Zhang Daofan's wife, named Su Shan, is a foreign woman, and after learning that Zhang Daofan and Jiang Biwei are living together, she is very helpless and washes her face with tears all day long.
She could not shake Jiang Biwei's position in her husband's heart, failed to protect her family, and in desperation, she had to write a letter to Jiang Biwei, asking her to leave her husband.
After receiving the letter, Jiang Biwei was very ashamed in her heart, as a woman, she could not fail to understand this pain.
But she couldn't put it down, and the only thing she could do was to send money to Susan every month in the name of Zhang Daofan and take care of them.
Rice grain mother felt that this was a typical confusion.
But although Jiang Biwei did not give up, their underground love did not go to the end, they were together for 20 years, at the beginning they did fight fiercely, but then Zhang Daofan gradually got tired of it, slowly alienated Jiang Biwei, and did not care about her retention.
The men are indeed big pig hooves...
In December 1978, Jiang Biwei died in Taipei, and at this time, Xu Beihong and Zhang Daofan had already taken the lead and drove to the west.
Jiang Biwei, when she was a teenager, was really brave and beautiful, desperate to run away with the people she liked, and no matter how hard it was, she was willing to eat.
Later, her life with Xu Beihong got better and better, but her heart became farther and farther away, but even so, she still refused the favor of her admirers, tried to forgive her husband's cheating, and wanted to live a good life wholeheartedly.
After painstakingly managing and not getting the return she wanted, she was completely dead hearted and became the kind of person she once hated the most.
But who knows in the end, which one has lost her.
Rice grain mother feels that no matter what era, as a woman, we must maintain independence, especially spiritual independence, do not love the brain, no one can not live without anyone.
Never rely on yourself entirely on another person, because a little inattention may be an abyss.
