In 1931, in the studio of the Central University, Xu Beihong had a long conversation with his friend Shu Xincheng.
Shu Xincheng said: "I fell in love with someone I shouldn't love, how is this good?" ”
After Xu Beihong listened, he said: "Good coincidence, brother, I am also in love with someone who should not be loved, I am more distressed than you." At least you are not married, and I have married and had children. I don't know what to do? ”
With that said, the two were relatively speechless, each with his own heart.
Who is the person in Xu Beihong's mouth who should not be loved?
It turned out that this woman was actually Xu Beihong's student Sun Duoci.
So what did she do to be able to seduce a master like Xu Beihong?
Sun Duoci, whose original name was Sun Yunjun, was born in Anhui Province, in a scholarly mendi.
Since childhood, Sun Duoci was clever and clever, lively and lovely, and her father hurt her to the bone. He used to say to people, "I love women more than men in my life." Therefore, The grandson had high expectations of Sun Duoci.
Once, Sun Duoci was copying a painting, and after painting it, he happened to be seen by his father. After the grandson carefully examined it, he laughed and said, "I didn't expect Duo Ci to have such a talent, which is not bad." ”
On the eve of graduating from high school, Sun Duoci told her father that she was going to study art. Her father, who loved her, asked her to study literature.
Sun Duoci always listened to his father. When she graduated from high school, she decided to apply for the Literature Department of Nanjing Central University. Unexpectedly, an accident made her famous.
In the autumn of 1930, his grandson accidentally became involved in a partisan struggle and was secretly detained. Sun Duoci was worried about his father, and he was always worried and uneasy, and his academic performance plummeted. In the end, the exam was dysfunctional and he failed to enter the Faculty of Literature at CUHK.
Half a month later, Sun Duoci came to Central University alone to find his father's good friend Professor Zong Baihua.
She said to Zong Baihua: "Mr. Zong, I want to audit the art department of CUHK, and when I enter the art department of CUHK in the coming year, can you help me?" ”
Zong Baihua knew about Sun Duoci's situation and immediately took her to see Xu Beihong, a professor of art.
Zong Baihua introduced Sun Duoci to Xu Beihong and asked him to accept Sun Duoci, an auditor.
After Xu Beihong listened, he jokingly said: "I heard that I wanted to apply for the Literature Department and was not admitted, so I thought that my Art Department came to observe?" Are you the leftovers of other departments when my art department is? ”
Sun Duoci did not know that this was a joke, and his face "whizzed" and blushed, and he bowed his head and did not dare to face them.
In this way, Sun Duoci became an auditor in the art department.
It's just that the two of them at this time, not knowing this fateful encounter, is the beginning of a sad life in the future.
There are many auditors in the ART Department of CUHK every year. At first, Sun Duoci did not enter Xu Beihong's eyes until an off-campus lecture.
On that day, Xu Beihong took the students of the Western Painting Group and was invited to visit and give a speech at the Qixia Rural Normal School. Sun Duoci also followed. The suburban road is not easy to walk, and Sun Duoci, who is wearing high heels, is left behind.
Xu Beihong noticed this detail, so he stood still and waited for her to catch up. "It seems that you are inexperienced in life, and you should wear flat heels when you go far. How's it going, some pain in the foot? ”
After Sun Duoci listened, his face was slightly red, he raised his eyes and smiled, and said, "It's okay." After thinking about it, he said, "Thank you Mr. Xu." ”
Perhaps it was the Yingying Autumn Water in Sun Duoci's eyes that stirred Xu Beihong's heartstrings. After this intersection, Xu Beihong, who was on the podium, could always find Sun Duoci for the first time among many students.
At that time, Sun Duoci's painting foundation was the worst in the class, and two months later, she was in the upper middle and upper reaches. Xu Beihong found himself needing to re-examine Sun Duoci.
During a painting class, Xu Beihong took Sun Duoci's paintings off the drawing board. After showing everyone around in the classroom, she put the painting back on her drawing board and said to her, "I don't praise you for your good homework, I can only say that you have improved." ”
Xu Beihong had never praised a student in this way, and for a time, the eyes of the whole class were focused on Sun Duoci's body.
After that, Xu Beihong paid more and more attention to Sun Duoci. After entering the classroom, he would look for her at the first time, and if she came late or did not come, he would always feel irritable.
At this time, Xu Beihong found that he had a strange affection for this female student. But in Sun Duoci's eyes, Xu Beihong was the division commander, and when he saw him standing far away, he bowed his head and respectfully called "Sir."
In order to get close to Sun Duoci, Xu Beihong asked her to be his model. After hearing this, Sun Duoci looked surprised, and finally, under the persuasion of Xu Beihong, became his exclusive model.
Since then, Sun Duoci has become a regular visitor to Xu Beihong's studio. Xu Beihong often opened a small stove for her and instructed her to paint, and in his body, Sun Duoci felt the warmth of a brother, and the relationship between the two became increasingly close.
Sun Duoci was very grateful to Xu Beihong for his love and cultivation of himself, and she wrote in her diary:
"Mr. Xu is a very kind elder, knowledgeable, cultivated, personable, and has a kind heart."
At that time, Sun Duoci only had teacher-student affection for Xu Beihong, and did not have a trace of love.
Xu Beihong injected his full love for Sun Duoci into the pen, and a painting of "Taicheng Moon Night" expressed his emotional destination.
But Sun Duoci had no intention of responding to his feelings, and she was taught not to do so.
It's just that things often don't go by people.
One day, Xu Beihong's friend Ouyang was unexpectedly with Shengcheng, and he met Xu Beihong's wife Jiang Biwei, and the group went to visit his studio.
Jiang Biwei, who had not been here for a long time, pushed open the study door, only to see that there was an easel in the study and a blue cloth on the drawing board.
Jiang Biwei knew that there was a difference, quickly stepped forward, pulled down the blue cloth with force, and "Taicheng Moon Night" showed everyone's eyes.
Her face suddenly turned pale, and she could barely hold her body. Originally, when Jiang Biwei was serving in Yixing, Xu Beihong wrote to her that if she did not come back, she would have to empathize and not fall in love.
Jiang Biwei returned to Nanjing and questioned Xu Beihong, but he denied it.
And the girl in this painting in front of you, and the love that spews out, what is it?
Jiang Biwei had only seen this in the portraits that Xu Beihong had painted for herself.
Jiang Biwei could no longer sit still, she wanted to see for herself who the woman who snatched love with a horizontal knife was?
The moment Sun Duoci met Jiang Biwei in the art department, he knew that things were going to be troublesome.
Sure enough, soon after, the newspaper published lace news between her and Xu Beihong, and rumors spread on campus.
The story of her and Xu Beihong spread to Anqing's hometown, and although her grandfather did not fully believe it, he was also worried and deliberately talked about it.
Sun Duoci, however, denied the feelings with Xu Beihong, claiming that he and Xu Beihong only had the friendship of teachers and students.
It wasn't until October 1934 that a photograph completely exposed the unrequited love affair.
At that time, Xu Beihong ended his lectures outside the school and organized students to go to Tianmu Mountain to sketch. Early the next morning, he told Sun Duoci that he would take her alone to Lion Rock to sketch.
So, the two men came to Lion Rock. After more than 20 months of not seeing each other, Xu Beihong couldn't help but hug Sun Duoci and kiss him.
This scene was just photographed by a classmate, and the photo was exposed. The classmates who were originally jealous of Sun Duoci were even more jealous of her, and the rumors spread even more intensely.
Later, Sun Duoci said to Xu Beihong's friend Shu Xincheng:
"Originally, my husband and I were just teacher-student relationships. The gentleman loves cai and cares more about me, but it arouses the suspicion of everyone. Originally, I didn't have this kind of mind, and after everyone talked for a long time, I acquiesced. ”
Behind the teacher-student relationship to the teacher-student love, it is not a deep emotional foundation, but a boat pushing along the water.
After Tianmu Mountain made love, Xu Beihong began to plan the future of his little lover Sun Duoci.
He said to Sun Duoci: "You are about to graduate, and I am planning to study abroad for you." After graduation, you go abroad, and I will come later. ”
After Sun Duoci listened, his heart was warm, and he threw himself into Xu Beihong's arms, feeling his heartbeat and affection for himself. However, the news reached Jiang Biwei's ears.
Jiang Biwei immediately ran to the school, verbally intimidated Sun Duoci, and even destroyed her paintings. After that, while secretly looking for someone to sabotage Sun Duoci's study abroad plan, she wrote a letter to Sun's father saying that her daughter was a third party.
Sun's father immediately came to Nanjing, and after understanding the situation, asked Sun Duoci to give up this relationship. In the face of her father's request, Sun Duoci did not say a word, she loved her father and could not refuse his request.
After planning to abort his trip abroad, Sun Duoci returned to his hometown in Anhui to find a job. She and Xu Beihong also began the days of Hongyan's book transmission.
Soon after, Sun Duoci came to Nanjing to meet with Xu Beihong. She said to Xu Beihong: "I had no intention of mr. Li, but mr. Li loved me very much, and I could only repay him." I knew that it was such a bitter fruit, I definitely did not go inside, and now the marriage is indefinite, when is a head. ”
Xu Beihong could only look at her with pity and embrace her into his arms.
Before leaving, Xu Beihong sent her to the dock. At the moment of boarding the ship, Sun Duoci told Xu Beihong that she would go out alone to break in, ten years, if there is a chance, after ten years, even in the north and south of the world, she can also renew the old love.
A year later, the Japanese army invaded, and the war burned to Anhui, and Sun Duoci fled to Changsha with his family. On the days of fleeing, life was helpless and there was no fixed place to live, and Sun Duoci's heart was miserable.
At this time, she remembered her lover Xu Beihong, who was far away in Guilin, and she took her whole family to defect.
In the face of the arrival of the lover's family, Xu Beihong was very attentive and ran around, looking for a house and a job for them.
Helplessly, Xu Beihong was only a professor after all, with limited ability, and only found a job for Sun Duoci. For this reason, Sun Father was dissatisfied and dissatisfied with Xu Beihong.
In order to truly embrace the beauty, in July 1938, Xu Beihong and his wife Jiang Biwei dissolved their cohabitation relationship.
Subsequently, he asked his friend Shen Yijia to propose to the Sun family. When the grandson heard the intention, he categorically refused.
The grandson resolutely opposed his daughter's marriage to Xu Beihong, and the mother washed her face with tears all day. In the face of her family's obstruction, Sun Duoci no longer had the courage to resist, and she confessed her fate.
Sun Duoci was forced to leave Xu Beihong and took his family to Lishui, Zhejiang Province, to join his friends, opening another fate.
After Sun Duoci came to Lishui, his friend Li Jiaying could not bear to be trapped by her love, and Wang Yingxia, the wife of Toyu Dafu, found an object for her. This object is Xu Shaodi.
Xu Shaodi was the director of the Zhejiang Education Department at the time, widowed, and had two daughters under his knees.
Sun's father was very satisfied with this marriage and tried his best to persuade Sun Duoci to marry this high-ranking Kuomintang official.
In the late spring of 1941, Sun Duoci obeyed his father's orders and married Xu Shaodi.
After the marriage, Sun Duoci and Xu Shaodi could be regarded as respectful as guests, but there was no trace of the joy of the bride on their faces.
Cousin Lu Hanmin asked Sun Duoci curiously: "Cousin, you tell the truth, are you really married to Xu Shaodi?" ”
Sun Duoci told Lu Hanmin that this was no longer important.
Lu Hanmin asked, "You still can't put down Mr. Xu in your heart?" ”
Sun Duoci sighed and replied, "Time has passed, and it doesn't matter if you can't put it down." One wrong step in life, one wrong step at a time. ”
After hearing this, Lu Hanmin said, "You must blame your uncle for interfering with you, it's not him, you may be together." ”
Sun Duoci said: "I don't blame him, I can only blame the war." ”
In 1949, Sun Duoci and Xu Shaodi moved to Taiwan, and never saw Xu Beihong again in this life.
She had promised Xu Beihong that she would not give up painting before, and after coming to Taiwan, she never put down her brush and broke out of the art world.
In 1953, Sun Attended an Art Symposium in the United States. On the way to the meeting, the organizers suddenly adjourned the meeting. Subsequently, the organizers announced the death of Xu Beihong.
Shocked to hear this news, Sun Duoci burst into tears and was devastated for a while. With trembling hands, she dialed the phone of her friend Wang Shaoling and informed Xu Beihong of his death.
After hanging up the phone, Sun Duoci sat in the room and was speechless for a long time. She didn't know how long she had been sitting, only that it was white outside the window, it was dark again, and it was white again.
She stood up hard, came to the desk, spread out the rice paper, and drew a Chinese painting entitled "Spring Goes": the old spring was cold, the mountain fog was everywhere, the delicate woman was alone, sitting alone by the stream to watch the falling red flow with the water.
Putting down the pen, Sun Duoci's tears were empty, but his thoughts about Xu Beihong did not diminish at all. Sun Duoci made a decision to wear filial piety for Xu Beihong for three years to show his remembrance of him and the ten-year relationship between them.
After that, Sun Duoci never mentioned Xu Beihong and poured all his energy into painting.
In early 1970, Sun Duoci was diagnosed with breast cancer and went to the United States three times for treatment. In February 1975, he died in the United States after the final medical treatment was ineffective.
Before dying, Sun Duoci woke up in a coma, and she asked her friend Wu Jianxiong, what day is it?
Wu Jianxiong said that today is February 13, and tomorrow is Valentine's Day.
Sun Duoci closed his eyes for a moment and wrote four words in the palm of his friend's hand: "Compassion for the heart."
Her name is Sun Duoci, and his name is Xu Beihong.
For this relationship of mirror flowers and water moons, it is difficult to reconcile after all.
