"Falling flowers deliberately follow the flowing water, and the flowing water is ruthless in love with falling flowers. ”
This is a poem about Yu Meiyan, but unfortunately Yu Meiyan is not a red, she is a "wild flower" that is "not ashamed or ashamed", and this poem is the best praise for her.
Yu Meiyan was born in Taishan, Guangdong Province in 1900.
She changed her life because of her father's decision, and she had a rich experience and finally committed suicide by jumping into the sea at the age of 28.
Why did her father make such a decision?
1. Parents' decisions change their lives.
Yu Meiyan's father is a local rich man, and the Yu family is also a prestigious family in Taishan County, at least very famous in Taishan.
Yu Meiyan is the eldest daughter of the Yu family, so she was regarded as a "baby" when she was born.
At that time, Yu Meiyan's father was also a very far-sighted person and attached great importance to education.
Therefore, he invited a famous teacher to teach Yu Meiyan when she was very young, so Yu Meiyan is also very talented in reading.
However, in the feudal society at that time, women were not allowed to go out, let alone study.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan's father didn't know how many times he was worried when Yu Meiyan was 10 years old.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan's father decided to send Yu Meiyan to the art institute to learn art.
However, why did Yu Meiyan's father make such a decision?
Is it to give Yu Meiyan one more skill?
In fact, it is not, because Yu Meiyan's father was very famous in Taishan at that time, and his name was one of Yu's "Four King Kongs".
He used to be the county magistrate of Taishan, and only later resigned and went home to do business.
Therefore, the name of Yu Si Si King Kong is also because he is courageous, but his courage is also very petty.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan's father knew that in the feudal society at that time, women had no status and were just an accessory.
And the Yu family is also famous in Taishan County, and he is afraid that Yu Meiyan will be bound by marriage in marriage.
Therefore, Yu Si Si King Kong treated his wife coldly and said, "If I die, you can take your daughter to the Yu family, and they will not treat you badly." ”
This sentence reversed Yu Meiyan's fate 180 degrees.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan's father sent Yu Meiyan to the art institute to learn art.
Yu Meiyan's mother was of course unwilling, but she knew that her husband was a stingy ghost and would do it once he decided, so she didn't dare to go against her husband's will.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan was sent to the art institute to learn art when she was 10 years old.
In the art practice, Yu Meiyan learned a lot of skills, such as playing the piano, writing poems, painting, weaving women, etc., these are the skills that women need to learn at that time, and these are also what Yu Meiyan learned in Xiyi.
Because Yu Meiyan's talent is very good, she is also very good in the art institute, and her talent is also very good, so she is also very liked by the teacher in the art institute.
In Yu Meiyan's body, the teachers see their own value, so they also attach great importance to Yu Meiyan's learning.
And the other girls in the art institute hate Yu Meiyan, which is also because Yu Meiyan is better than they have learned.
In the art institute, Yu Meiyan also made a lot of friends, including a girl named Lin Cui.
Lin Cui is Yu Meiyan's good friend, but it is different from Yu Meiyan, her family is from a poor family, but she is very smart, so she was also invited by Yu Si Si King Kong to study art in the art institute.
But Lin Cui hated this place very much, because in this art studio, although she worked very hard in learning art, she was treated coldly by the teacher.
Therefore, Lin Cui became good friends with Yu Meiyan at this time.
When they are together, Lin Cui is a very well-behaved girl, but under the leadership of Yu Meiyan, she has also learned a lot of skills.
Because Yu Meiyan also has a very good nickname in this art studio, called "Little Witch".
This nickname was called out by her teacher, because Yu Meiyan's personality is very wild, she is very good at learning art, but she is very wild in terms of personality, so her teacher gave her a nickname called "Little Witch".
In the art institute, Yu Meiyan is also very presumptuous, and she doesn't want to stay in this art institute, so she tries to escape from the art institute.
After escaping from the art institute, Yu Meiyan was beaten by her father, and then at this time, Yu Meiyan's father married Yu Meiyan to Guangzhou and asked her to find her husband's family.
2. Failed marriage and a lifetime of debauchery.
After meeting her husband's family, Yu Meiyan found that in her husband's family, her husband's family was a beggar.
This made her very angry, so she was reluctant to marry him.
But at this time, Yu Meiyan's father was gone, and her father would not care about herself, so she told her husband's family about it, and she was unwilling to marry him.
But his husband's family was very angry, and he said, "Didn't your father agree to marry you to my family?"
"Now that you are my person, if you don't want to marry me, that is not to give me face, if I am like this, go and sue your father, and then see what your father says. ”
Yu Meiyan's father is dead, and her husband's family is very hateful, they are using the name of the Yu family, and they also know that Yu Meiyan's father is Yu Si Si King Kong, so they will marry Yu Meiyan.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan was also very angry, so she killed her husband's family, which was also discovered by her neighbors, and then arrested Yu Meiyan's husband's family.
At this time, Yu Meiyan's husband's family was also very shameless, so they sued their daughter-in-law and asked her daughter-in-law to come to his house for the funeral.
Therefore, Yu Meiyan was also very helpless at this time, she could only go to her husband's house to accompany the funeral, but in her husband's house, she was very discriminated against.
The people in her husband's family are also very hateful, they just use Yu Meiyan's identity to let her do a lot of housework, and they have to receive a lot of cold reception.
At this time, Yu Meiyan was also very angry, so she jumped into the river, wanting to find a short time.
But after she jumped into the river, she did not die, but was rescued.
At this time, Yu Meiyan told her life experience to the person who saved her, this person was Yu Meiyan's second brother, and after Yu Meiyan's second brother heard it, he was also very angry, so he rescued Yu Meiyan.
At this time, Yu Meiyan's second brother was also very angry, and he decided to vent his anger for Yu Meiyan.
So Yu Meiyan's second brother killed Yu Meiyan's husband's family, but at this time, Yu Meiyan was very afraid, so she fled to other places.
After escaping to other places, Yu Meiyan took refuge in a local village official, who also liked Yu Meiyan very much, but Yu Meiyan was unwilling to marry him.
At this time, Yu Meiyan thought of her second brother, so she called her second brother to this place.
In this place, Yu Meiyan's second brother was also very unaccustomed to this village official, so he killed this village official, but at this time, Yu Meiyan's second brother was also very afraid, so he killed Yu Meiyan.
Yu Meiyan was also very helpless at this time, she fled to Guangzhou, and on the way to Guangzhou, she met a person named Zhang San, who also liked Yu Meiyan very much.
But Yu Meiyan was unwilling to marry him, so she killed him.
In this process, Yu Meiyan has already debauched her heart, and her debauchery life is also very distressing.
But in the feudal society at that time, it was very forbidden for a woman to have her own concept of marriage, and her marriage was decided by her parents.
But after Yu Meiyan's father died, her fate was changed, and she was also very unhappy in her marriage.
In this process, Yu Meiyan was also very helpless, when she was 28 years old, she finally chose to commit suicide by jumping into the sea, leaving her last words: "I hope to be a pure woman in the next life." ”
epilogue
Yu Meiyan's story is very distressing, and her story also reflects the moral judgment of women and the rejection of society at that time.
But Yu Meiyan's body also reflects the individual's pursuit of freedom and individuality, which is an admirable spirit.
In the feudal society and traditional family at that time, how to balance self-worth, family responsibilities and social expectations is a question worth considering.
