Once upon a time, a romantic person once said, "I have seen spring, summer, autumn leaves, winter snow, and I have also stepped on the Xiling Mountains in the southern and northern mountains, but in these four seasons of spring and autumn, yangshui is not as good as you to smile at me." It is probably the heat of love that the speaker is able to say such a moving statement.
Throughout the ages, there are many vigorous love stories, and the protagonists in the stories are also legends, but to say that when he was 17 years old, he married his 42-year-old husband, but he was widowed at the age of 19, and he refused to buy Japanese goods all his life, probably only Wang Yuling.
During the Republic of China period, many well-known women were born, such as Meng Xiaodong, a Peking Opera actress known as the Eastern Emperor, such as Zhang Ailing, who was highly respected by petty bourgeoisie, and Ms. Lin Huiyin, who was brilliant in literature. There are also Song Qingling, Qiu Jin, etc., Ms. Wang Yuling was also a household name at that time, so who is Ms. Wang Yuling, and why has she experienced so many things, let us walk into the protagonist of today's story, Wang Yuling, to feel her different and legendary life.
Wang Yuling is the wife of the famous anti-Japanese general Zhang Lingfu, born in Changsha in 1928, Wang Yuling's paternal family has been quite proficient in business for many years, and it was also a rich party for a while, and the highest official position in Wang Yuling's ancestors can even be traced back to the Libu Shangshu in the Qing Dynasty, so the Wang family can also be described as a family of scholars.
Wang Yuling, who lives in such a family, is a veritable rich family and has lived a life of fine clothes and food since childhood. When she was in girls' school, after witnessing the various violent acts of the Japanese army, she participated in the anti-Japanese parade many times, and it was at that time that Wang Yuling secretly decided in her heart that she would not buy Japanese goods in her life.
At the same time, in the heart of this girl, she also looks forward to one day being able to marry an anti-Japanese hero. So when she met Zhang Lingfu, she completely turned into a little fan.
Finally, in 1945, with the mediation of matchmakers, 17-year-old Wang Yuling and Zhang Lingfu, a 42-year-old famous anti-Japanese general, got married, and the wedding was arranged by Cheng Qian. At that time, people called the combination of the two "heroic talent Jasper Beauty", and this love was sensational and spread as a good story.
Wang Yuling, who was only 17 years old at the time, was in the best years of a woman, ice muscle jade bone, out like a delicate flower, her husband Zhang Lingfu once sighed: "Finally learn yourself, life has no regrets." Because Zhang Lingfu had had several failed marriages before, he cherished his wife extra much.
After marriage, the two are also exceptionally sweet and happy. Not long after, their children were also born. Wang Yuling originally thought that she could live a happy life with her husband and godson from now on, but only two years after the marriage, her husband Zhang Lingfu was defeated and sacrificed on the battlefield.
At the age of 19, Wang Yuling became a widow, and at that time, because she was still young, many people advised her to remarry, but in order to stick to her love with Zhang Lingfu, she chose to be widowed. Zhang Lingfu did not leave much money for Wang Yuling's mother and son, so it was not long before the strong Wang Yuling moved to the United States with her children.
Although she was lonely and lonely, she also gritted her teeth and rooted in the local area, she earned money while studying, did not ask anyone for help, and finally relied on her own best school for her children to study, and cultivated her children to be very good. Wang Yuling herself also bought a big house.
60 years later, the 79-year-old Wang Yuling finally set foot on her husband's burial place Meng Lianggu, because she missed her husband, Wang Yuling's mood was very sad, and she wrote four big characters "peaceful reunification". Despite being in a foreign country, Wang Yuling still remembers the brutality of the Japanese army, and she refused to buy Japanese goods all her life.
In her later years, Wang Yuling was invited back to the motherland to participate in the ceremony as a patriotic overseas Chinese, and did a lot of good things for her hometown fathers and elders. Because they personally experienced that tragic era, Wang Yuling's generation knew better what could be done and what could not be done, and they interpreted this commitment with their own practical actions, rather than just using it as a slogan. Although the war has left us, we must also guard this hard-won peace.
I don't know if you have ever seen a TV series called "Red Sun", starring Li Youbin, You Yong and Xiao Songjia and other powerful actors, the story told in the play is the story of Zhang Lingfu and others. In 2005, before filming, the director of "Red Sun" wanted to invite Zhao Wei to play the role of Jia Yining (Wang Yuling) in the play.
But when Wang Yuling learned that Zhao Wei wanted to play herself, she seemed a little dissatisfied, Wang Yuling, who had studied at New York University, said that Zhao Wei's image was too small, and the sense of modernity was too strong, it was these short words that made the director at the time think that it was necessary to reconsider the role candidate, and finally decided to replace Zhao Wei and invited the actor Shi Lanya to play Wang Yuling.
I've always believed that everything in contemporary times is fast food, such as fast food culture, and fast food love. The love of today does not seem to be like the love of the generations of the fathers and grandfathers, which is broad and unswerving and deep and introverted. Therefore, when I learned about the eternal and selfless love between Wang Yuling and Zhang Lingfu, my heart could not be calm for a long time.
Wang Yuling loves her husband deeply, as an ordinary person, I can't imagine Wang Yuling alone in the United States for so many years as a father and a mother to raise children alone, supporting the hardships of the whole family.
After only two years of marriage, her husband died, and Wang Yuling had no complaints or regrets, and was obsessed with widowhood for a lifetime. In the years together, Zhang Lingfu did not even say a few sweet words, the most straightforward sentence was: "I have a good wife, this is more important than any wealth, if I want to beg for food, my wife can bring me a bowl." ”
Perhaps in our opinion, Wang Yuling's waiting is too crazy, but it is difficult to comment on whether it is worth it. Someone once asked Wang Yuling what is your biggest regret in this life, and she said: "The thing I have always been worried about is that I was not with him when he was most miserable, most desperate, and most helpless. ”
Therefore, it is precisely because of this love that their son's milk name is "Xiao Ling" and their grandson's name is Zhang Zhengfu, which is a memorial and an emotional sustenance. In the Rose Garden in Pudong, Shanghai, there is a crown tomb of Zhang Lingfu. The front stele is engraved with such a poem: "When I had the privilege of knowing my husband, I never forgot my love." Forty-seven gun smoke wounds forever, and the poignant past is timidly relived. ”
The ancients mentioned in the "Upper Evil": "I want to know the king, and I will live a long life without end." Mountains without edges, rivers and waters are exhausted, winter thunder and earthquakes, summer rain and snow, heaven and earth are united, but dare to be with the king! Perhaps in Wang Yuling's heart, she holds up such a belief, even if her lover is far away from her, as long as the love for her lover is still there, they have never been separated from each other.
