This old photo taken in the thirties of the last century is Tang Ying, an outstanding female representative of the Republic of China, facing the camera, she is showing a well-tailored dress, and she is wearing a well-fitting delicate skirt and a pair of small leather shoes. Even in the black and white images, her elegance is still on the page. This style, even in modern times, still looks fashionable and not outdated.
Tang Ying, this name was closely associated with the word "celebrity" during the Republic of China. So, what does "celebrity" mean? It represents a distinguished family background, a privileged living environment, outstanding looks and extraordinary talents. Tang Ying is all in line with these qualities. Although her father, Tang Nai'an, was not involved in officialdom, he enjoyed a high reputation in the medical field and was a well-known doctor in Shanghai. Tang Ying has received exquisite training in Kunqu opera, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and she is full of talent.
It is particularly worth mentioning that Tang Ying has an extraordinary sensitivity to fashion, and her taste in dress was famous at the time. At that time, the saying "Southern Tang and Northern Lu" was widely spread, "Tang" referred to Tang Ying, and "Lu" referred to Lu Xiaoman. Both were fashion vanes and influenced the social trends of the time.
Tang Ying is a beautiful and talented woman, but her marriage road is full of ups and downs. Her first love was Song Ziwen, which made many people curious, how did they meet and fall in love?
It turned out that Tang Ying's elder brother Tang Yulu was working as a secretary by Song Ziwen's side at that time, and it was this opportunity that allowed Song Ziwen and Tang Ying to get acquainted. In the process of getting along day after day, they gradually developed feelings and fell in love. However, their relationship did not get the consent of both parents, and they finally broke up after three years of underground romance. Song Ziwen later married Zhang Leyi, while Tang Ying married a wealthy man named Li Zufa.
Tang Ying is a person who loves life and likes to socialize, and despite being married, she still maintains this character. However, her husband Li Zufa was extremely disgusted by her behavior and did not like Tang Ying going out to participate in various banquets or activities. Such a disagreement made the relationship between the two gradually cold. Tang Ying was a reluctant person, and she chose to divorce Li Zufa peacefully in 1937.
After the divorce, Tang Ying is very financially independent. She devoted all her energy to the Yunshang company she founded, and her career was as successful as a fish in water. A few years later, Tang Ying met her second husband Rong Xianlin. Although Rong Xianlin does not have much fame and his family conditions are average, he is very good to Tang Ying, and Tang Ying finally got happiness in her second marriage.
Compared with Lu Xiaoman, who had a bleak evening, Tang Ying not only had a smooth career in her career, but also enjoyed the joy of having children and grandchildren full in her later years. She died in the United States in 1986 at the age of 83. In her life, she experienced the ups and downs of love and the twists and turns of her marriage, but in the end she achieved success in her career and found happiness in love.
