"You are a April day on earth, laughter lights up the wind on all sides, and the light spirit dances and changes in the light of spring..." This is a poem full of love and expectation written by Lin Hui because of her and Liang Sicheng's son, and also reflects her unique poetic talent.
The world knows that she is full of talent and beauty, which makes several People of the Republic of China fall for her. Xu Zhimo abandoned his wife for her bitter pursuit, and Jin Yuelin did not marry her for the rest of her life, "living in the forest" for years and months, but hidden behind the piles of affairs was her companionship, love and protection of her husband Liang Sicheng from beginning to end. Their educational philosophy was also particularly successful, and several children achieved success in the future. But what is less known is that the happy marriage of the talented daughter of the Republic of China is shrouded in a huge black figure, this person is Lin Huiyin's mother He Xueyuan.
After years of resentment, it has finally made a big mistake
Contrary to her daughter's cleverness and generosity, Ice and Snow Heart, her mother He Xueyuan has a stingy and old-fashioned personality, and often makes a small character at home. She was an old-fashioned woman with an impatient and stubborn personality, born into a small workshop family. At that time, the Lin family was a famous scholar in Jiangnan, and it was reasonable to say that she married into the Lin family should also be a sparrow to become a phoenix, but because of her personality, she turned her happy life upside down.
He Xueyuan came to the Lin family as a house filler after the death of Lin Changmin's original Ye family, which can be said to be filling the house, and the Lin family up and down took her as a legitimate young grandmother. But she didn't know anything about poetry books, the female workers also knew nothing, and did nothing all day, and she was even more scornful of the poetry and book tradition accumulated by the Lin family for generations, she never understood, what is the use of dry reading these people? You can't get promoted and get rich, and you can't pave the way for the future. For her idea, her husband Lin Changmin also patiently persuaded, but with little success, because they were people of two worlds from beginning to end.
Since then, Lin Changmin has not returned home much. After the Lin family saw clearly the ignorance and incompetence of this young grandmother, they also violated He Xueyuan's Yang yin, and the real power of the Lin family has always been in the hands of Lin Changmin's mother, You Shi, and the people under them also know who is the real master. This kind of distrust, He Xueyuan has always held a grudge, so she began to make it difficult for people, and her mother-in-law You Shi has always looked in her eyes and has not mentioned it.
Since the Ye family had no children, He Xueyuan was frequently promoted by the elders as soon as she entered the Lin family. She also lived up to her high expectations, and just entered the door and gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Lin family. For this child, the mother-in-law You Shi simply hated to hold it in her arms every day, and she was afraid of melting in her mouth, holding it in the palm of her hand for fear of falling, facing her mother-in-law's love for the child, He Xueyuan felt very dissatisfied, and she felt that her mother-in-law snatched her child.
The mother-in-law held her grandson as usual and played all day, until the evening, He Xueyuan saw that her son had not returned, and the accumulated anger suddenly broke out, she angrily looked for her mother-in-law theory, and the mother-in-law had long been unaccustomed to her stingy and mean face, said a few words about her, He Xueyuan was angry and snatched her son and was about to go out, and as a result, a toe, tripped by the door frame, and the son in her arms was thrown to the ground, had a fever all night, and finally died.
Since then, He Xueyuan has fallen to death because of the death of the eldest grandson, the status of the Lin family has plummeted, her husband does not pay attention to her, the people in the family never listen to her servants, and the mother-in-law You Shi has no good face for her, in such an environment, her complaints about her unfairness are all released on the body of the eldest daughter Lin Huiyin.
It is difficult to return, and the end of a willful life is sad
Living with such a woman, Lin Changmin, who worked outside the home, did not want to go home once, until he met his true love Cheng Guilin and married her back home, he felt that he had not lived in vain.
For her husband's new love, He Xueyuan is also resentful, she complains that her husband never considers him and complains about his unfair fate, but she has never reflected on the darkness and shortcomings in her personality. For this kind of resentment, she sprinkled all her brain on Lin Huiyin, and once Lin Huiyin went to play with her father and the second wife, she would be counted down when she returned.
He Xueyuan suppressed the pain and resentment of half a life on a small child, but Lin Hui, because of his integrity and kindness in his bones, was not induced by his mother's words, but felt complicated and helpless for his parents. She was helpless to her father's indifference to her mother, and she was helpless to her mother's resentment toward her father.
It is this severed parental relationship that Lin Huiyin has long seen the complex human nature hidden under the relationship between men and women. The romantic young poet Xu Zhimo does not yearn for her? Xu Zhimo's romance and Liang Sicheng's steadiness she loves, but she weighs the pros and cons of emotion and chooses the best solution to her family.
I thought that such a broken family would continue forever, but all this ended with the sacrifice of her father, after that, Lin Huiyin took up the burden of taking care of her mother, and after marrying Liang Sicheng, she took her mother to the family to take care of it, but her mother still could not let go of her previous grievances, and often dragged Lin Huiyin back to that dark time.
After Lin Huiyin's half-brother Lin Heng came to Beijing to study, Lin Huiyin happily let his brother come to live at home, but He Xueyuan did not look at the son of the enemy everywhere, and sneered at Lin Heng, with a cold face. Faced with her mother's practice, Lin Huiyin felt deeply tired, and she later wrote in a letter to her friend: ... My own mother threw me into hell on earth... Almost wish I had died or never been born in such a family...
As for her daughter's exhaustion, He Xueyuan also did not understand, but she complained about why her daughter was so good to the enemy's son and made a mess of Lin Huiyin's life.
Heartfelt exhaustion, long-term work outside the work, and accumulated lung disease tormented Lin Huiyin, and finally, she died in 1955 and left this noisy and chaotic world.
After Lin Huiyin's death, the task of taking care of this old lady fell on his son-in-law Liang Sicheng, and later Liang Sicheng continued to marry again, and did not forget the mother of this deceased wife, and has been taking care of his wife Lin Su wholeheartedly until 1972, Liang Sicheng also passed away, Lin Su, although controversial and infamous, still took over the burden of taking care of He Xueyuan.
epilogue
The woman who was full of resentment at that time has lost the momentum of that year, and I don't know if she has seen through the right and wrong grievances of her life at the age of 90. We don't know, we only know that just a year later, He Xueyuan, who has no worries, will die, and it is Lin Su who has been insulted by the world to send her to the end.
In fact, is He Xueyuan at fault? Yes and no. She just met the wrong person in the wrong era, and a long period of snub and loneliness will drive a normal person crazy, and the involuntary nature of women's marriage and love in that era is the deepest source of tragedy.
