Xu Beihong's love legend, a poor couple who once eloped, why did they finally get divorced?

Introduction:1965438+in the evening of may, 2007 13, a couple who were entangled in bad business were packing their bags and preparing to do something crucial to their fate. What is that? Elope. The woman here is called Jiang Tangzhen. Listen to the name, you may not be familiar with it. But there is no one who doesn't know the man who wants to run away with her. He is Xu Beihong, a master of Chinese painting.

Of course, Xu Beihong had not yet become a master. He just got out of trouble and became an art professor at Cangsheng Zhiming University in Harbin Garden, Shanghai, but he is only famous. Before Xu Beihong, he was forced by life and even wanted to commit suicide. What happened?

Xu Beihong was born in 1895, a native of Jiangtang Town, both from Yixing, Jiangsu Province. 19 14. After his father died, Xu Beihong, who was young, was forced to shoulder the burden of family life. In order to earn money to support his family, Xu Beihong came to Shanghai to sell paintings. At that time, he was confident in his own strength and fantasized that everything would be wonderful when he came to Shanghai.

But the ideal is beautiful and the reality is cruel. I didn't sell a painting, I didn't find a job, and finally I didn't even have a place to live. At the worst time, I only have three coppers left on me, and I can only buy a meal with one copper every day, that is, fried dough sticks wrapped in glutinous rice. Desperate, he even tried to jump off the Huangpu River to commit suicide.

Fortunately, God never shuts one door but he opens another. That year, Shanghai Harbin Garden Cangsheng Ruizhi University publicly collected the image of Cang Xie, and Xu Beihong signed up with the mentality of giving it a try. Unexpectedly, his painting won the first prize in one fell swoop and was selected by the university. Xu Beihong finally found a decent job as an art professor at Cangsheng Ruizhi University. Xu Beihong has established himself in Shanghai.

Meanwhile, Jiang Tangzhen's father, Jiang Meisheng, was hired as a professor by a university in Shanghai. Because my father's job changed, the family also came to Shanghai. By chance, Jiang Meisheng met Xu Beihong, both of whom are fellow villagers in Yixing, and their relationship suddenly became close.

Soon, Xu Beihong was invited to visit the Chiang family, that is, that day, Jiang Tangzhen and Xu Beihong met for the first time. Although it was the first time we met, we confirmed our eyes and met the right person. It was love at first sight. So, how did two such suitable people finally elope?

Is it because Xu Beihong was married before? No, because at this time, Xu Beihong's wife in his hometown had passed away, and Xu Beihong was a widow at that time. Can it be said that the Chiang family dislikes Xu Beihong's marriage history? In fact, Jiang Tangzhen's father appreciates Xu Beihong.

The real reason is that as early as Jiang Tangzhen 13 years old, his parents betrothed him to Cha Zihan, the son of Chajia in Haining, Zhejiang. This is the biggest problem between them.

The elders are quite satisfied with this young marriage, but ten thousand people in Jiang Tangzhen's heart despise their fiance. Let me tell you one thing. At that time, my fiance Cha went to school in Shanghai, and it was in Jiang's father's school, which was quite good. But what Jiang's father didn't expect was that the future son-in-law came to his father-in-law for the first time to cheat in the exam.

Hearing this, Jiang Tangzhen fried the pot on the spot. Through this incident, Jiang Tangzhen lost his affection for this fiance in his heart and thought that he had neither strength nor character. On the contrary, although Xu Beihong was born in general, he was diligent and eager to learn French after work.

People are afraid of comparison. People have to die than people, and goods have to be thrown away. With such a contrast between the two men, the balance in Jiang Tangzhen's heart began to tilt towards Xu Beihong. But what's the use? The engagement has been decided, and it was not easy to go back on our word at that time. Soon, the wedding day will come. Cha Jia even sent the bride price. At this time, Jiang Tangzhen was afraid and helpless.

And Xu Beihong looked at the painful Jiang Tangzhen, who was also afraid and helpless. Although these two people didn't break the enough paper, they already decided in their hearts that this is what you have to do. So, how can we stop this? Thinking about it, Xu Beihong flashed a bold idea in his mind and eloped.

At that time, Xu Beihong had an opportunity to study in Japan, so it was better to take Jiang Tangzhen with him. This idea is really bold. Elopement was a major event involving family reputation. Once such a thing is done, I'm afraid it's hard to go back. Will Jiang Tangzhen be willing to drop everything and go with himself?

Unexpectedly, when Jiang Tangzhen heard Xu Beihong's plan, he immediately agreed without hesitation. In this way, a shocking escape plan was closely discussed between the couple. On the evening of May 19 13, 2007, Xu Beihong asked a friend to come forward and invited Jiang Meisheng and his wife, who like to listen to opera, to go to the opera.

At home, Jiang Tangzhen and Malie packed their bags and left a farewell letter. Hurriedly joined Xu Beihong. Only after Jiang's parents went home to read the letter did they know that their daughter had run away with Xu Beihong. What should we do?

On the one hand, they are worried about their daughter's safety. On the other hand, the wedding day is coming, and the bride has already run away. What should I tell my family? In desperation, the Chiang family can only lie that Jiang Tangzhen died suddenly. This move enabled Jiang's parents to tide over the difficulties, but it also blocked all the retreat of Jiang Tangzhen.

Jiang Tangzhen and Xu Beihong boarded a ship to Japan and were immersed in a sweet ocean of love. Xu Beihong also changed Jiang Tangzhen's name, Biwei. From then on, Miss Jiang turned into Jiang Biwei.

However, with love, where is the bread? Away from home, no relatives, no reason. Soon, the two young people felt the cruelty of reality. When they arrived in Japan, they had to live in a small hotel and live a life of extreme poverty. At that time, they only brought 2000 yuan, and the high tuition and living expenses made them spend all the money quickly.

This continued until 19 19, and Xu Beihong applied to the Ministry of Education for a study place in French public schools, and the economy improved slightly. Although it has improved, it is one money for two people, plus the high consumption in Paris. It is conceivable that the life of Xu Beihong and his wife must be difficult.

Fortunately, in the early days, they still had the nourishment of love. During his stay in Paris, Xu Beihong painted Jiang Biwei whenever he was free. For Jiang Biwei, these paintings are the most special gifts. One of the paintings is called Qin Ban, which is a representative painting.

This painting is also one of Jiang Biwei's favorite paintings. It is said that this painting hung in her bedroom until her death. She is happy in the painting, but no one would have thought that this painting was a divorce gift for Jiang Biwei when Xu Beihong divorced. Well, how did these two get divorced?

It turned out that Xu Beihong, who came to Paris, was deeply attracted by the city. For him, Paris is the capital of art and knowledge. He is hungry every day, tireless, and devoted himself to artistic creation. He doesn't care about anything except painting. Life is bitter, as long as you are hungry.

But Jiang Biwei doesn't think so. For her, Paris is a romantic city and a happy city. After all, Jiang Biwei was born in a rich family, and at first he could barely accept the days of poverty. But in the face of dazzling jewelry and fashionable and gorgeous clothes, after a long time, she began to waver.

In addition, Xu Beihong indulged in artistic creation all day, and the two spent less time together. Jiang Biwei felt left out more and more, so he began to pursue fashionable clothes, fashionable cosmetics and the so-called Parisian lifestyle. Live a happy life.

But Jiang Biwei and Xu Beihong only lived on Xu Beihong's subsidy. How can they stand such expenses? To make matters worse, due to the chaos in the domestic situation, Xu Beihong's official expenses for studying abroad soon stopped and their main source of income was cut off.

The embarrassment of life made Jiang Biwei's mentality completely collapse, his temper became worse and worse, and his dissatisfaction with Xu Beihong also accumulated. Just then, a man named Zhang Daofan came into her life. Zhang Daofan was originally a student studying fine arts in London, England. Because of Xu Beihong's fame, she found Paris on purpose.

When they met, he was not attracted by Xu Beihong's paintings, but was fascinated by Jiang Biwei's temperament and beauty. Zhang Daofan is rich and helps Jiang Biwei buy clothes, high heels and all kinds of luxuries. Soon, Jiang Biwei was defeated by Zhang Daofan's money offensive, and they lived together.

At this time, Xu Beihong, in order to let Jiang Biwei live his ideal life, went to Nanyang alone to sell paintings and raise money, completely unaware that his backyard was on fire. Fortunately, it was not long before Xu Beihong learned something and returned to China for development. And Jiang Biwei, tangled and tangled, chose Xu Beihong between two men and followed him back.

Xu Beihong and Jiang Biwei's life finally got back on track, but at this time, another person broke into their world. Oh, it's really ups and downs. who is it? Sun Duoci, a student of Xu Beihong.

Sun Duoci was born into a noble family, and her father was the secretary of Sun, a northern warlord. More importantly, she is not only beautiful, but also talented in painting. As a teacher, Xu Weihong made no secret of his love for this student. He not only praised her in public, but also focused on cultivating her.

Jiang Biwei was furious at Xu Beihong's undisguised behavior. Angry Jiang Biwei first forced Xu Beihong to write his resignation letter and tore up many of his paintings. Later, she ran to the dormitory in Sun Duoci in disgust and publicly warned her not to associate with Xu Beihong. I also wrote a letter to Sun Duoci's parents, asking them to discipline their daughter well. Even tore up Sun Duoci's passport to study in France.

Jiang Biwei's behavior startled Xu Beihong. He didn't expect his wife who had been with him for many years to be such a crazy person. The endless quarrel made the Xu family not warm at all. Two people who once eloped for love are now only indifferent and suspicious.

To tell the truth, this indifference and suspicion, or Jiang Biwei's madness, has something to do with her own cheating, because she will think of others as well as her. She can't accept her old life, not to mention this kind of thing happened to her husband. Anyway, her mentality has been distorted since then.

On July 3 1938 and 3 1 day, Xu Beihong published a message in Guangxi Daily, saying that he had dissolved his cohabitation relationship with Jiang Biwei, thus ending his 28-year marriage. Later, the two started a divorce lawsuit. In the end, Jiang Biwei got one million compensation from Xu Beihong, forty ancient paintings and one hundred of his own paintings.

Xu Beihong not only gave her a painting, but also gave her an extra one, which is the piano lesson we talked about earlier. Because this is Jiang Biwei's favorite painting. From this behavior. It is not difficult for us to understand Xu Beihong's disappointment and the deep affection of two people, but different personalities, different pursuits and different stages of life make love just a passing thing, which is unforgettable.
