When it comes to the Republic of China, we have to talk about the four major families. And that Song of the Republic of China has a saying that slips through the mouth. The Jiang family, the Party of the Chen Family, the sisters of the Song Family, and the Wealth of the Kong Family. This is to describe the situation of the four major families at that time. So today we want to talk to you about the leading figure of the Chen family in the four major families, Chen Guofu' story.
Speaking of Chen Guofu, perhaps many people don't know much about him. But from a dialectical point of view of history, Chen Guofu and his younger brother Chen Lifu, in the corrupt Kuomintang at that time, may be considered well-known Qing officials. So at that time, many people said that the Chen family of the two of them was a poor brother of the four major families.
In the early days, Chen Guofu participated in the League. Following in the footsteps of Sun Yat-sen, he participated in the Xinhai Revolution. Therefore, he can be regarded as a very senior person within the Kuomintang. Not only that. Chen Guofu's uncle Chen Qiwei was also Chiang Kai-shek's brother-in-law. Therefore, Chen Guohu was very much valued by Chiang Kai-shek at that time. When Chiang Kai-shek established the Whampoa Military Academy, Chen Guofu was appointed to a position where the Whampoa Military Academy procured arms and recruited talents.
Zhu Ming is Chen Guofu's wife and a very virtuous woman. Although it is said that the parents of Zhu Ming and Chen Guofu have the words of a matchmaker. This is the relationship between Chen Guofeng and Zhou Ming, very loving. And under the influence of Chen Guofu. Zhu Ming never interfered with Chen Guofu's administrative work. And taking care of her husband's life can be described as meticulous.
Later, after the defeat of the Kuomintang soldiers and fled to Taiwan. It is also difficult for the Chen family to be called the four major families anymore. And Chen Guofu didn't even have any position. Even life is difficult to maintain. In addition, he was physically weak and sickly. Therefore, the family's money is not enough at all, and the life is very ended. But Zhu Min'er still took good care of her husband, without a single complaint. Zhu Ming used his weak shoulders to carry the whole family. Chen Guofu's younger brother, Chen Life, chose to lead his family to the United States. Shan left Chen Guofu in Taiwan. Famous people even used to use their own gestures to exchange money for her husband's treatment. As the saying goes, it is difficult to see the truth, and whenever Chen Guofu mentions his wife Zhu Ming, he is always full of love and gratitude.
As for the status quo, Chen Guofu felt helpless. So, he wrote a letter to his friend, Zhao Lihua, asked for help. And this person helped Chen Guofu at a critical time. He reflected the situation to Chiang Kai-shek. After Chiang Kai-shek learned the news, he gave Chen Guofu 5,000 oceans of nostalgia. Used to treat his illness. But unfortunately, Chen Guofu's condition was still getting worse, and he died soon after. He was 59 years old.
In China the couple was after, famous with himself passed on several children. Moved to the United States. He has followed Chen Guofu for nearly 20 years. In order to fulfill, Chen Guofu's last wish to return to the roots of the fallen leaves. In 1999, her children slammed Chen Guofu, along with the famous ashes, into Wuxing, Zhejiang.
