In the summer of 2004, old classmates gathered at a restaurant diagonally opposite the Provincial Qunyi Museum. Dr. Wei Qunzhi was also there. Wei Jun is the grand duke of Professor Wei Shuzheng, a well-known ophthalmologist in our province and the old president of Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, who is well-informed and not only familiar with the old streets and alleys of Kunming, but also very familiar with the local palm of Kunming. When I asked Ruoyuan Lane and the Zhou Mansion when we met, Wei Jun pointed out the window and said that diagonally opposite ruoyuan lane, which was the old house of Zhou Zhongyue's family. I was secretly happy, suppressed the excitement and asked sure? Wei Jun said how could this be wrong, my family is related to the Zhou family, and his old house I have been to when I was a child. He also told me that Zhou Zhongyue's second son, Teacher Zhou Xinan, lived in Kunyi Middle School, and his wife was our teacher Hu Suqiu. I was so excited that I immediately asked Wei Jun to accompany me to see the Zhou Mansion. After we watched it, Wei Jun said that it was no problem, he had not been here for decades, and he couldn't imagine that it was still the same.
I think it was a perfect coincidence. Over the years, I often read the historical materials of the Southwest United University, including the directory of the faculty and staff and the directory of students of the United Nations University in that year, and found many valuable materials and clues from it. For example, fifty years ago, the teachers of Kunhua Middle School (later renamed Kunming No. 1 Middle School) were very strong, and I heard that some teachers graduated from Southwest United University, but it is not clear which teachers are. Nowadays, when I look at the directory of the students of the United Nations University, the names of many teachers are impressive, and I have written down that there are sixteen or seventeen people who have only taught our class. Even more unexpectedly, I found out that my father-in-law, Mr. Li Guozhi (deceased), was still in the same class as our three teachers Fu Facong, Huang Qing (deceased) and Hu Suqiu (deceased) of Kunyi Middle School! They all graduated in 1946 from the History Department of the Faculty of Letters.
Then he asked Wei Qunzhijun to accompany me to the dormitory of Kunyi Middle School to visit Teacher Zhou Xinan. Teacher Zhou was 87 years old at the time, but his spirit was excellent, his voice was bright, and he was kind and kind, which made people feel kind. Since then, I have visited Elder Zhou many times, and I have asked everything that should be asked.
The Yulongdui Zhou Zhongyue Mansion on the shore of Kunming's Cuihu Lake
Now I know. The Zhou family's residence is only one in Ruoyuan Lane in the city, and another villa is in Anning Hot Spring. Wu Dayu's family originally lived in The Luocui Mountain Villa in Beicangpo, which was the residence of Zhang Weihan, a famous eunuch in the early years of Yunnan. After Wu Dayu's family moved into the Zhou Mansion, they lived on the first floor, and the Zhou family lived on the upper floor. The zhou dashao's milk name Yuan Zhuanzhi mentioned in Wu Dayu's "Memories" is the granddaughter of Yuan Jiagu ("economic special yuan" in the 29th year of Guangxu), and her father Yuan Piyuan is the eldest son of Yuan Jiagu; Wu Dayu's classmate Yuan Piji is also a doctor at the University of Michigan and is Yuan Zhuanzhi's third uncle. In the Zhou family, Yuan Zhuanzhi was the wife of Zhou Xinian, the eldest brother of Zhou Lao. Wu Dayu stayed at the Zhou Mansion because of the relationship between Zhou Xinian, Zhou Lao's eldest brother, and the two of them had known each other in Shanghai before. Elder Zhou also said that after Wu Dayu and Cheng Yuhuai moved in, he and his eldest brother moved to the second floor, and after the two families moved away, they moved back to the first floor. It is also said that the old father (Zhou Zhongyue) was in Chongqing at that time, and Wu Dayu and the old father had never met.
I also asked about Zhou Zhongyue's writing of the three big characters of "Presidential Palace" at the request of the National Government. Elder Zhou said that he had heard that the nanjing side was considering a candidate for Yu Youren, and only later did he decide to ask his father to write it.
There have always been many legends about the runbi, saying that Chiang Kai-shek gave Minister Zhou thirty-two or forty-two gold, which is "a thousand words and a thousand golds." Elder Zhou said that there was no such thing, but the actual situation was that the National Government sent people to send four thousand oceans, all of which were "Sun Datou". But thank you, did not receive.
Speaking of Ruoyuan Lane. Elder Zhou said that Ruoyuan Lane was named after Zhang Ruoyuan, a large household in the alley. Zhang Yi is a politician, and the old house in Ruoyuan Lane was bought by the Zhou family from the Zhang family. Elder Zhou also said that Ruoyuan Lane was originally connected with Xiao Jipo.
It seems that Ruoyuan Lane has some stories. Now the alley is gone, and the alley is gone. Fortunately, the Zhou Mansion actually survived, which was also the greatest luck among misfortunes.
As for the old residence of Jie Xiao Xiang Wen Yi Duo, this is also completely refreshing, and it has nothing to do with the Zhou Zhongyue Mansion.
