民国之于近代，犹如春秋战国之于古代，百家争鸣，百花齐放，涌现出一大批新青年，还有他们的儿女情长。
In the summer of 1915, a girl sat in a chair in the lobby, holding an iron box containing a photograph of a boy, and the boy in the photo was Xu Zhimo.
女孩张幼仪，芳龄15，长相很普通。 The brother told his sister that if he liked it, he would settle the marriage. 女孩有些忐忑，还是听话地打开了盒子。
The moment the box was opened, a mild-mannered boy appeared in her eyes, and she smiled shyly. In that instant, my brother and family understood my sister's intentions.
而在浙江海宁县硖石镇徐家，徐志摩看到女孩照片后，却说女孩是个土包子。 Although Xu Zhimo was somewhat resistant, Xu Zhimo's father still agreed to come down to this family affair.
半封建时期，媒妁之命，受之于父母，讲究门当户对。
徐志摩父亲徐申如，开钱庄、卖绸布，可谓富甲一方。 上海安山罗巨富张家，张歆海是驻外国公使，张君劢是哲学家，张嘉璈是银行家。
在张嘉璈做浙江都督秘书时，巡查校园，看上了才华出众的徐志摩，爱才，加上徐志摩家庭条件良好，于是找上门联姻。
张幼仪被迫退学，嫁到徐家当媳妇。
Xu Zhimo graduated from Zhejiang No. 1 Middle School, was admitted to the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology, and continued to study after marriage.
In 1918, Xu Zhimo and Zhang Youyi gave birth to a son. In the same year, through the introduction of Zhang Youyi's brother Zhang Junjie, Xu Zhimo became Liang Qichao's disciple, and of course, the Xu family also gave Liang Qichao a gift.
徐志摩拜完梁启超为师后，离开北京大学，独自去留学。
当时，国内时局不定，内忧外患，大批有志青年涌向国外，求学问道，有朝报效祖国。 奈何国家国际地位较低，留学求学之路并非坦途。
徐志摩也踏着这股春风，远渡重洋去到美国。
At Clark University, Xu received a bachelor's degree in economics. At Columbia University, he continued his studies in economics.
1919年，国内“五四”运动浪潮，飘到美国，受此熏陶，徐志摩热情参加爱国运动，期间爱上文学，深耕文学，获得了文学硕士学位。
During his studies in the United States, Xu Zhimo was tired of material inducements. Attracted by the British philosopher Russell, Xu Zhimo decided to abandon the temptation of a Doctorate in Columbia and go to England to follow Russell.
In 1920, Xu Zhimo bid farewell to the United States, where he had studied for two years, and came to Britain. 因罗素工作有变，徐志摩未能如愿追随罗素。 Xu Zhimo entered the London School of Economics for further study.
Forced by the pressure of Zhang Youyi's brother in life, Xu Zhimo, who had just arrived in The United Kingdom, had to accept that Zhang Youyi, who had been separated for a long time, came to the United Kingdom to accompany him.
When getting off the plane, almost everyone picked up with a smile, only Xu Zhimo had a look of disgust and openly said dirt buns to Zhang Youyi. Zhang Youyi was honest and did not dare to make a sound, and followed Xu Zhimo.
张幼仪也上了一段时间学，终归思想守旧传统，思想观念还停留在男尊女卑，无法和徐志摩对等沟通。
徐志摩也很无奈，虽然思想前卫，穿着体面，奈何花销要靠家中支持，人脉仰仗张家抬举。
徐志摩可谓是生活及学业，处于被动局面，一方面他厌倦封建枷锁，一方面又不得不接受家人安排。 His family wanted him to study economics, but he didn't think so.
