Wu Mi tells her own fortune.

1898 lunar calendar 1 65438+1October1,a female doll carved from jade powder was born in a country gentleman's house in Jiangshan County, Zhejiang Province. Although she is a daughter, she is deeply loved by her parents.

The parents wanted the little girl to be literate when she grew up, so they named her Wen. Coupled with the typography of her generation, "Yan" and "Mao Yanwen", these names full of parents' expectations were given to this little girl.

Being born into a gentry family is not rich, but it is enough for Mao's parents to provide a good life for their precious daughter. Perhaps most people will compare the squire with the landlord. In fact, they have one thing in common, that is, they all have a lot of land. In other respects, the landlord lags far behind the social status of the squire.

In feudal society, there is a saying that the imperial power does not go down to the county, and all countries below the county are controlled by the squire except the county magistrate. The squires have a good reputation, and county magistrates often need their support when they are in power. Therefore, the squires have both the threshold of scholarly family and the money of the landlords and gentry, and they are a group living quite well.

Mao Yanwen had a very lucky childhood. Not only did she live a life of living beyond her means every day, but she was never poisoned by feudal bad habits because of her father's education.

Mao Yanwen's father is a scholar, and he also wants his children to inherit the blood of scholarly family, so when she was 7 years old, she was sent to a family private school for enlightenment education.

Although Mao Yanwen's parents never believed that women's lack of talent was a virtue, they had to give in to the custom of women's early marriage. In the local area, if a woman is over 10 and has not married anyone, she will be laughed at.

Marriage runs through one's life. Some children have not yet been born, and they are regarded as lifelong events by a few words from their elders, and only wait until they get married.

Mao Yanwen's parents were engaged to her when she was 9 years old, for fear that her daughter would become someone else's talk after dinner, and only waited for her to get married as an adult.

Because Mao Yanwen has been at school, she should get married at the age of 15, and she has been putting it off until 19. At this time, the man can't wait any longer, so he discussed with Mao Yanwen's parents and set a wedding date.

In fact, Mao Yanwen just doesn't want to fulfill the arranged marriage agreement under the pretext of reading. There are two reasons: First, Mao Yanwen has secretly promised his childhood cousin Junyi Zhu, and they hit it off and have decided to live for life. Naturally, they don't want to marry a man who has never even met; Secondly, Mao Yanwen has received so many years of education and is civilized. The headmaster also advised her not to fall into the shackles of arranged marriage, so she naturally doesn't want to get married.

Seeing the wedding day approaching, Mao Yanwen became more and more uneasy and told her cousin Junyi Zhu and her mother about her troubles.

A mother always wants her children to be happy, and a lover always wants to be with her lover. So, when the sedan chair was about to board the Maojia Gate, Mao Yanwen escaped from the back door with the help of her mother and threw herself into the arms of her cousin waiting at the back door.

After such a period of time, the marriage naturally fell through. Although Mao's father was annoyed that his daughter humiliated Mao's family, his daughter felt distressed and finally set her free.

Seeing her daughter kneeling in front of her, tears streaming down her face, begging her to agree to marry her cousin, Mao Fu, who was distressed by her daughter, relented.

Mao's parents feel that they grew up under his nose and have a reliable personality, so they can rest assured. And Junyi Zhu learned a lot, or high flyers in Tsinghua. Now she is the son-in-law of Yuegu, and she is happy to kiss and kiss.

Cousins are like family. It stands to reason that Mao Yanwen and Junyi Zhu should get married with the consent of their parents. After all, they have admired each other for so many years, and it's time for them to be together.

However, Junyi Zhu decided to study in the United States first, because at that time, he was admitted to Tsinghua University in Beijing to study in the United States. This opportunity is too precious for him to give up.

So Junyi Zhu made a six-year promise to Mao Yanwen, saying that when he came back from school, he would give her a photogenic wedding. Although he didn't give up, Mao Yanwen, who loved his cousin deeply, couldn't bear to delay his future and didn't want to stop his ideal. His heart was full of loneliness and he agreed with a smile on his face.

I miss my lover more and more deeply as the cruise ship leaves for the United States. Mao Yanwen slowly waved to the invisible cruise ship. From then on, she was here and her cousin was on the other side of the ocean.

Lovers in love are always concerned about each other. Mao Yanwen's letters flowed into the green mailbox like snowflakes, and the addresses on them were all in the United States.

Hongyan handed books to express her love for Mao Yanwen, only to find that there were fewer and fewer letters from Junyi Zhu. Every time there is a letter from home, she comes with joy, but often disappointed. My cousin didn't give it to her.

Every three or four letters, maybe Junyi Zhu will send one to Mao Yanwen. In this sleepless night, Mao Yanwen was worried. And my cousin's letter to her is getting shorter and shorter, even with a little perfunctory. Even though she cleaned up the mess for him, there was always a voice in her heart that told her of Junyi Zhu's indifference.

Mao Yanwen is not a man who is sad because of spring. After she calmed down, she began to transform herself and wanted to be a new woman that my cousin liked.

In Mao Yanwen's eyes, Junyi Zhu is the most perfect man in the world. In the past, he often told her the latest events in the world, brought her the latest ideas, and encouraged her to get out of feudalism and become a beloved new woman.

At that time, Mao Yanwen was just a little girl who had never been out of Jiangshan County. She is ill-informed and lacks foresight. Junyi Zhu told her about Kan Kan. He is a very powerful person, so she always looks at her cousin with admiration.

Maybe they don't know. Mao Yanwen likes Junyi Zhu, the leader who dedicated himself to her and brought her a new world, while Junyi Zhu likes Mao Yanwen, who worships him and obeys her.

As Mao Yanwen grew up and broadened her horizons, she began to have a new understanding of new women and began to refute the unreasonable ideas instilled in her by Junyi Zhu.

The more books a woman reads, the more independent she will be. When Mao Yanwen's thoughts can go hand in hand with Junyi Zhu's, Junyi Zhu begins to be afraid of this woman.

Mao Yanwen requires monogamy, because it meets the requirements of the new era and new women. However, in the men's world, this damages their privilege of enjoying multiple women at the same time, including Junyi Zhu, who once encouraged Mao Yanwen to become a new woman.

In fact, when she was in love with Mao Yanwen, Junyi Zhu also had an affair with other women, but Mao Yanwen didn't understand it at that time and thought it was normal. After all, she grew up in such a patriarchal world.

When she met a real new woman, her love concept changed, but this concept was not accepted by Junyi Zhu, so he often accused Mao Yanwen of having so many strange ideas.

Junyi Zhu, which is neither old nor new, is doomed to fail to reach the same world as the new Mao Yanwen. So after waiting for him in Mao Yanwen for six years, he abandoned her without hesitation on the grounds that he accepted the modern concept and understood the disadvantages of consanguineous marriage. In the final analysis, it's just that he moved on and fell in love with another woman.

Mao Yanwen spent his best years waiting for Junyi Zhu, but in the end he got nothing. It is impossible to say that he is not sad.

Maybe it's because I knew it early, maybe it's because Mao Yanwen has become strong enough in recent years. There are more important things in her world, not just love. Mao Yanwen didn't become hysterical. Just like sending Junyi Zhu abroad with a smile, this time she broke up with him with a smile, but the tears in her eyes flowed into her heart.

At this point, Mao Yanwen is nearly middle-aged, has long been a leftover woman. The parents at home have turned white for her marriage, but after a painful relationship, she has no intention of pursuing the next love.

However, running water has been lovelorn, and it has its own breeze to pursue lovelorn. Junyi Zhu no longer likes Mao Yanwen, but some people regard her as the apple of their eye. This man is Wu Mi, a classmate of Junyi Zhu when he was studying in the United States.

At that time, Mao Yanwen wrote a letter to Junyi Zhu to express his love. In order to show his charm, Junyi Zhu gave Wu Mi a very private love letter.

After reading the love letter written by Mao Yanwen, Wu Mi was immediately moved by this woman's literary talent. Because there has never been such an outstanding woman around him, I have a yearning for Mao Yanwen in my heart.

Only at that time, Mao Yanwen was a good friend Junyi Zhu's fiancee, and a friend's wife could not be bullied. As wanton as Wu Mi, she can only hide her restless heart.

At that time, Wu Mi and Junyi Zhu's classmate Chen Liexun introduced their sister Chen Xinyi to Wu Mi. It happened that Chen Xinyi was Mao Yanwen's classmate. Out of yearning for a woman like Mao Yanwen, Junyi Zhu entrusted Mao Yanwen to understand Chen Xinyi's temperament for him in his letter.

Upon inquiry, Mao Yanwen worshipped by Wu Mi turned out to be the matchmaker between Wu Mi and Chen Xinyi. Think about it. Perhaps it was because Chen Xinyi was affirmed by Mao Yanwen that Wu Mi agreed to start a family with her.

But those who can't get it are always in turmoil. When Mao Yanwen was single again, Wu Mi's once-hidden throb was stirring again, regardless of his wife and daughter at home. He thinks he has enough courage to tell Mao Yanwen.

Mao Yanwen herself suffers from the pain of her boyfriend's empathy. How can her classmates suffer the same pain as her? Good people are always unwilling to hurt others, and their injuries will naturally not be grafted on innocent people.

But Mao Yanwen underestimated Wu Mi's perseverance. Although she flatly refused and stayed away from him thousands of miles away, Wu Mi divorced Chen Xin and followed Mao Yanwen to the south.

Wu Mi is crazy about Mao Yanwen's insistence. Among his poems by Wu Mi, the first poem in the group of "Mr. Wu Mi's troubles" is "Wu Mi, loved one and Mao Yanwen, who surprised people on three continents. Divorce is not afraid of sages, and money and fame are not enough. "

This love can't wait for the whole world to know, and this love can't wait for the whole world to witness, but Wu Mi's high-profile was avoided by Mao Yanwen.

Moreover, every time Wu Mi sends a letter to Mao Yanwen, she will say, "I read her letter from Junyi Zhu one year, and I gradually developed love and fantasy." This is really going straight to the apex of Mao Yanwen, so how can she have a favorable impression on Wu Mi?

I think Wu Mi, the later master of Chinese studies, spent half his life reading poetry books, which was really a waste. I'm obsessed with chasing women, but I'm not in the right direction at all. It is no wonder that when Mao Yanwen was very old, someone asked him how he felt about Wu Mi, and everyone didn't grumpily evaluate him as a "bookworm".

However, Mao Yanwen has always rejected Wu Mi, not because he is a "bookworm". After all, a man who cares so much about her, even a bookworm, will be happy all his life.

Mao Yanwen always refuses Wu Mi because she can see it clearly. She once pointed out in blood: "He loves an imaginary me, not the real me."

Mao Yanwen's eyes are really evil. Later, her attitude eased, and Wu Mi's attitude of retreating from difficulties can be seen that he only enjoys the pleasure of pursuing unattainable people.

The more clearly a woman sees, the more disappointed she is with her feelings. After two emotional injuries, Mao Yanwen devoted himself to charity.

She is over thirty years old, and has no enthusiasm and persistence in treating feelings when she was young, so she will never talk about marriage easily again.

Xiong Zhi, a classmate from Mao Yanwen, saw that she was so enthusiastic about charity. Thinking that her father was also a philanthropist, she invited her to go north together and open her eyes to Peiping.

Xiong Zhi's father is Xiong Xiling, and he has a wide network of contacts. He used to be the Prime Minister of the State Council, standing at the highest level of political power. Therefore, Mao Yanwen feels very lucky to learn how to do charity from such a person.

At that time, Xiong Xiling founded Xiangshan Kindergarten in Beiping, which took in orphans 1600 people and became the largest charity in Beiping.

Xiong Xiling's wish is to train these children with modern education, so he recruited high-end talents such as Hu Shi, Li Dazhao and Jiang Menglin to discuss good strategies.

Mao Yanwen was shocked after visiting Xiangshan Kindergarten. Before, she didn't know what her value was. After meeting Xiong Xiling, the light in her heart was lit.

Looking at the elegant elder in front of her, Mao Yanwen's heart was filled with infinite reverence, and her respect for Xiong Xiling gave birth to other meanings in others' eyes.

Xiong Xiling and his wife, Mao Kun, are deeply in love and have been unhappy for four years after his wife's death. His daughter Xiong Zhi and his niece Zhu look very anxious.

They were encouraged when they saw Xiong Xiling and Mao Yanwen smiling brightly when they talked. Since they are both single and get along well, why not pair up?

And charity in Xiong Xiling needs help. If Mao Yanwen, who is keen on charity, marries Xiong Xiling, wouldn't it be his best helper?

They considered it very well, but on second thought, Xiong Xiling was 65 years old and Mao Yanwen was only 37 years old. There is an age gap of 28 years between them. Will Mao Yanwen, in her prime, agree to marry an old man who can be her father?

But soon the concerns between them were broken by Xiong Xiling himself. He put aside his long-standing indifference and began to write to Mao Yanwen and take care of himself. Mao Yanwen would reply to him like a friend.

The communication between them made it easier for Xiong Zhi to fix them up. After determining her father's mind, she hurried south to propose to Mao Yanwen for her father.

After careful consideration, I finally gave the Xiong family a positive answer. Later, Mao Yanwen recalled his consideration at that time and said, "At that time, abnormal psychology told me that an elder almost twice my age would never change his mind and would never consider his age. Moreover, the kindness and thoughtfulness of the bear have entrusted his life to him, and there is no danger of separation in the middle. "

So when you think about it, Mao Yanwen is always insecure about feelings, and Xiong Xiling just gave her such a sense of security.

1935 In February, Mao Yanwen and Xiong Xiling, who were 28 years apart, got married in Shanghai. White-haired beauty, this wedding caused a great sensation. Shen Bao said, "The bride is 38 and the groom is 66!" Wrote:

"Former Prime Minister Xiong Xiling, 66, mourned for four years. At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, she married Ms. Mao Yanwen through Mutang. Ms Mao is a beautiful student and a professor in a university. She is 38 years old and has a beautiful face and white hair. The love affair spread, and the people of Shanghai congratulated each other and the traffic was blocked. "

For Xiong Xiling, Mao Yanwen has only two requirements, one is to shave off his beard, and the other is to throw away his crutches when taking pictures. She explained to Xiong Xiling, who is already her husband:

"On crutches, one looks old, and the other symbolizes helplessness. Now that you have me, you have something to lean on. For the rest of your life, I only allow you to rely on me, and you are not allowed to rely on anything else. "

Mao Yanwen's speech art is really worth learning. Originally, she thought the age gap between them was too big. If Xiong Xiling were on crutches again, she would be more like a father than a groom. But after listening to Mao Yanwen, Xiong Xiling threw away his crutches happily and willingly.

After marriage, Xiong Xiling took good care of his little wife like a young man who just fell in love. In the words of his daughter Xiong Zhi, he regarded Mao Yanwen as his daughter's pet and his wife's love, which made Mao Yanwen feel unprecedented peace of mind and happiness.

Although Mao Yanwen didn't enter the marriage with love at first, they managed a fairy-tale love after marriage. The two are inseparable every day and love the children in the kindergarten as their own children.

Mao Yanwen studied education management and sociology at the University of Michigan and obtained a master's degree in education, so it is beneficial to set up a child-friendly school.

The two spent two happy years together, but the good times didn't last long. After the July 7th Incident, Xiong Xiling died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage due to fatigue.

Having lost her beloved husband, Mao Yanwen, who was only 40 years old, also lost the courage to remarry. She had the most perfect marriage in the world, and she was afraid she would be disappointed again.

Although the memory of her husband is only two years, it is enough for her to spend the rest of her life for decades. In the remaining 6 1 year, Mao Yanwen took over her husband's charity, followed her husband's legacy, and covered more poor abandoned children with fraternity.

After Mao Yanwen became the director of Xiangshan Kindergarten, she went south again and set up a large-scale kindergarten in the southwest and other border areas, taking in more than 10000 street children, and she became the common mother of these children.

At the age of 98, Mao Yanwen began to handle the matter of returning her husband Xiong Xiling's body to his hometown, so that Xiong Xiling, who had been wandering for half a century, finally returned to his beloved Xiangshan.

After dealing with all the worries, Mao Yanwen can finally enjoy his old age. 1999 10.3 died at the age of 10 1.

Mao Yanwen only enjoyed two years of marriage, but he has more than 65,438+00,000 children, enjoying their love and respect. Such a life is legendary.
