Yue Fei is a famous national hero in China, and the story of his mother-in-law's tattoo is also well known. It was also Yue Fei's mother's urging of Yue Fei to be loyal to the country that made Yue Fei become a famous anti-Jin general later.
Influenced by feudal ideas, China has always had the saying that the male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, the man makes money outside, and the woman teaches the child at home. If a man can marry a virtuous wife, it is very helpful to the family and career, and there is a saying that "marrying a virtuous wife for three generations". Wang Shuzhen is such a virtuous wife.
Wang Shuzhen was born in 1897 to a family of scholars in Nantong, Jiangsu Province. Wang Shuzhen, who was born in such a scholarly family, was familiar with poetry and songs from an early age, and was familiar with music, just like a talented woman from Jiangnan who came out of the picture scroll.
In 1916, Wang Shuzhen's father betrothed the 19-year-old Wang Shuzhen to Li Haomin, the son of a wealthy merchant from the Li family. Although it is an arranged marriage, the two did not know each other before, but the married life of the two is very sweet. Although Li Haomin is the second generation of the rich, he is not a clumsy disciple and has a very docile personality. After marriage, Li Haomin was on the run, and Wang Shuzhen was educating her children at home. After 30 years, they already have 5 boys and 8 girls.
In 1947, Li Haomin had already done business in the entire Jiangnan region, and considering the years of war, Li Haomin transferred his wife and some children to the south, and he continued to work in the Jiangnan region. Unfortunately, in 1949, Li Haomin was unfortunately killed in a shipwreck near Zhoushan.
Because Li Haomin had previously taught his children to do learning, and had no intention of letting his children continue to do business, no one among the children who had grown up could inherit their father's property. Soon, the world that Li Haomin had worked so hard was cannibalized by others. At that time, there were still some young children in the family, and Wang Shuzhen quickly came out of the grief of losing her husband, adapted to the life of no longer eating and clothing, and began to go out to make a living for the children.
Wang Shuzhen moved to the suburbs with her children, and all her savings had been spent on sending her children to school, and at first some children were not yet adults, and the burden on the whole family was too large. Even so, Wang Shuzhen still did not let any of her children drop out of school. She put down the shelf that she used to be a rich lady, went to other people's homes to do odd jobs, did sanitary sewing clothes and made meals, and patched others at home after returning home at night.
Wang Shuzhen always did not forget to teach her children not to have psychological gaps, that people should not be poor in ambition, and that they should not lose their dignity. Wang Shuzhen's children were also able to understand their mother's hard work and said that they would try to be filial to their mother. Under the words and deeds of their mothers, the children also thrived one by one.
After the children of the Li family grew up, they all became doctoral students and had good development in all walks of life, such as Li Changxia receiving a doctorate in computer science from Trudeau University in the United States, and Li Changduo receiving a doctorate in agronomy from New York University in the United States.
The most famous of all the Li family's children is li Changyu, known as the contemporary Sherlock Holmes, who has repeatedly solved strange cases, and three people have been selected as "Ten Outstanding Young People in the United States".
In 2003, Wang Shuzhen died of illness in New York at the age of 106. The family training left for posterity is only a short 15 words: treat people well, concentrate on doing things, talk less, and do more things.
