Mao Yanwen: A talented woman, she met love rat twice, married Xiong Xiling at the age of 37 and 65, and was widowed for the rest of her life two years later.
The first time I heard Mao Yanwen's name, I would like to thank Mr. Wu Mi and Mr. Qian Zhongshu from Tsinghua. Because Wu Mi divorced Chen Xinyi, who had given birth to three daughters, in order to win back this beautiful woman. I didn't know that Mao Yanwen turned to marry former Prime Minister Xiong Xiling, which was a real blow to Wu Mi.
Is this Mao Yanwen long-haired beauty really a vain "love rat"? In fact, she is just a woman who was delayed by her cousin love rat. ...

Mao Yanwen was born in Jiangshan, Zhejiang from 65438 to 0898. Dad Mao Huadong is in business, running a cloth shop and a sauce garden, and his family is well-off.
There is a brother who died at the age of five in Mao Yanwen. Later, Mao Ma gave birth to five daughters in a row, and Yan Wen was the eldest daughter. A woman who can't have a son is naturally unhappy in her husband's family. And her mother-in-law likes her daughter, Mao Yanwen's aunt. Every time my aunt takes her children back to her parents' house, Mao Yanwen is always bullied by her children. At this time, the mother will send her daughter Yan Wen back to her family.
At my grandmother's house, my cousin Junyi Zhu (the eldest son of Uncle Yan Wen's family) takes care of this cousin Yan Wen, who is four years younger than him. Junyi Zhu ranks fifth in Zhujiajian, so Yan Wen always affectionately calls him "Brother Five". Yan Wen is a wayward girl, but she always listens to Brother Wu.
Junyi Zhu lost his mother at the age of three and has been taken care of by his grandmother, Yan Wen's grandmother. A grandson and a granddaughter, of the same age, can naturally be called childhood friends.
When she was a child, Mao's father was engaged to her. Fang Yaotang, a businessman, took a fancy to the lively and clever Yan Wen and hoped that she would marry her son Fang when she grew up. At that time, Yan Wen was still young and didn't know what engagement meant. He thinks it's all because of his parents.
It was not until I went to Xihe Girls' School that I learned from the headmaster Mao Xian that my engagement meant marrying a man I didn't know in the future. This is a big problem, because Yan Wen already has a sweetheart in his heart, and that is my cousin Junyi Zhu. Meanwhile, Junyi Zhu has been admitted to Tsinghua University. In Yan Wen's eyes, that is the existence of male gods. Cousin, too, has a soft spot for this little cousin and thinks that the person she will marry in the future should be herself.

When they were admitted to Hangzhou Women's Normal School, the Fang family thought that Dajue had better get married as soon as possible, so they proposed to Mao's father to marry him. Dad Mao agreed, but he didn't. Her response is "despair".
When the bride's sedan chair came to the city gate, Mother Mao told people to wait here and told them that the Mao family wanted to choose a beautiful and auspicious wife.
During Mao's lunch break, Mao Ma called his fourth uncle (Junyi Zhu's father) and cousin and said, "Our family is going to die. Dad Mao must marry a girl and try his best ... In this case, take Yan Wen back to his hometown and hide!"
Father Mao was furious, but he was helpless. He can't find a daughter, and he can't get married. As a result, the Mao family compensated the Fang family for their wedding expenses and did not take them with the dowry. In the final analysis, it is the economic base that determines the superstructure, and everything in the Mao family is settled with money. However, Yan Wen's escape from marriage made her a local celebrity, and people pointed fingers everywhere.
Yan Wen is a student in Hangzhou. He received a letter from his cousin Junyi Zhu, but he didn't reply. In Yan Wen's mind, it is very unreliable to think that her escape from marriage has a great relationship with her cousin, while he hides in Beijing and keeps all the troubles to himself.
But at this time, Junyi Zhu was more affectionate than Shi Jian. One letter, two letters, three or four letters kept "bombing" Yan Wen. Yan Wen himself worships his cousin, and so on, and the two continue to communicate. Junyi Zhu asked to be engaged to Yan Wen, but Yan Wen disagreed: First, it was rumored that the two had an affair and the SEALs had to confirm it; Second, consanguineous marriage is harmful; Third, you will study abroad, and my education does not match.
This letter was refuted by Junyi Zhu: First of all, we love each other. Why should people be afraid? Second, we have love, and the inheritance will not be bad; Third, you are still young, and your future achievements are limitless. It is not certain who will depend on you in the future!
Junyi Zhu asked his father to get engaged to Mao's parents, but Mao's father and mother also figured it out. Last time they broke off their engagement with Fang family, Mao's reputation was damaged. This time, since my daughter Yan Wen agreed, let's help them. Therefore, Yan Wen became my cousin Junyi Zhu's fiancee.

Junyi Zhu went to the United States to study abroad and bid farewell to Yan Wen. At this time, Yan Wen knew the pain of parting, and she fell in love with her cousin.
Yan Wen and his cousin agreed to write a letter every two weeks, numbered according to "benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and wisdom". In the first four years, Junyi Zhu kept his promise and Hongyan handed over books. But in the next two years, his letters gradually decreased.
Whenever this happens, Yan Wen can't get up without thinking about tea and rice. Once I receive a letter from my cousin, all my worries will vanish. Yan Wen fell so deeply into boundless love that she didn't realize the change of her cousin at all.
1922, Junyi Zhu returned to China wearing a hat of doctor of philosophy from Columbia University, dressed in gold, and found a teaching position in Southeast University. At this time, Yan Wen transferred from Beijing to Nanjing Jinling Women's University at the request of her cousin. In Nanjing's major scenic spots, two people have left traces.
Yan thinks it is natural to marry his cousin. I didn't expect my cousin to send her a farewell letter for three reasons: there is no real love between them; Close relatives cannot get married; These two people are incompatible in character. Anyway, I'm sorry, I don't love you.
The fact is, looking forward, he fell in love with Cheng, a 17-year-old girl from Huiwen Middle School. In Cheng's eyes, he is an absolute young talent. In his eyes, Cheng is more gentle and beautiful, and always looks at him with adoring eyes.
Never listen to new people laugh, who can see old people cry? Years of love has become a thing of the past, and Yan Wen feels that there is no need to exist, and his body and mind are all collapsed. 1925, what if I don't accept it when I marry Cheng?

Broken-hearted Yan Wen flinched in the face of love. Although I really want to have a home, but "it is priceless and easy to get, but it is hard to get a lover", everything depends on the script of heaven.
Wu Mi appeared on the stage and began a long journey in pursuit of Yan Wen. Wu Mi and Junyi Zhu are both students in Tsinghua. They study abroad together and are very close to each other. Junyi Zhu even shared Yan Wen's love letter with him.
Between the lines, Wu Mi fell into a unrequited love mode for this woman who only heard her words but didn't see her. Her knowledge, her talent, her infatuation and her fanaticism all drive Wu Mi crazy. But a friend's wife can't be bullied, and Wu Mi can only bury her secret love in her heart. After returning to China, he soon married Chen Xinyi and gave birth to three daughters.
1928 In August, Wu Mi met Yan Wen. Wu Mi recorded his feelings at that time in his diary: many things were disappointing when I went south, and I was glad to talk to Mao Yanwen about it, so I "loved" Mao Yanwen even more.
From this point of view, Wu Mi has fallen in love with Yan Wen deeply. Chen Xinyi found her husband's diary and contacted Yan Wen privately. Yan Wen said that she had only friendship but no love for Wu Mi.
In Yan Wen's view, getting too close to a married man is terrible for him, and it is better to alienate him. But Wu Mi knows that there are tigers in the mountains, and he prefers to walk in the mountains. He ignored the worldly vision and dared to pursue the goddess in his heart. But does he remember that he still has a wife and three daughters at home? When a person falls in love, he is no longer the same person.
Wu Mi gave the divorce certificate to his wife. On Chen Xinyi's side, since my heart is not here, I won't take that person with me, so I signed off. It should be said that Wu Mi is really not a fickle person. After the divorce, he still bears the expenses of his wife and three daughters. Affectionate and full of water, can he get the partner he misses so much?
Yan Wen went to the United States to study after winning a scholarship from the University of Michigan. In the second year 10, Wu Mi went to Oxford University in England. In a foreign country, they fell in love.
When Wu Mi proposed to Yan Wen, Yan Wen agreed. But when he arrived, Wu Mi said he wouldn't get married and got engaged instead, and Yan Wen promised again. The young and unforgiving leftover women seem to be caught by the other side. 1932 After Yan Wen returned to China, Wu Mi still failed to show his due sincerity, but his affair with Chen Yangxian and Lu Baohua was exposed. It's nothing. Your actions tell me everything. Yan Wen no longer expected to enter the besieged city.

1935, Yan Wen made a decision that she married Xiong Xiling, former prime minister of Beiyang government. That year, Yan Wen was 37 years old and Xiong Xiling was 65 years old.
This marriage between the old and the young caused an uproar in society. Perhaps in people's eyes, Yan Wen took a fancy to Xiong Xiling's prestige. Actually, I have a good relationship with Zhu (Mrs. Xiong Xiling)' s niece Zhu. With the divorce, yes, Mrs. Zhu came forward. I tried to persuade them to make up, but in the end the man insisted on breaking up. What can he do?
After Zhu's death, Xiong Xiling was very depressed and didn't care about Xiangshan Kindergarten at all. Zhu thinks he is the best person to save his uncle. At the critical moment, Xiong Xiling's daughter Xiong Zhi personally stepped out. She got pregnant and found Yan Wen. She sincerely said, "I've come to welcome you to our home ..." There, Xiong Xiling also wrote letters to express her love every day.
Many years later, I mentioned one of the reasons for marrying a bear. "Abnormal psychology tells me that an elder who is almost twice as long as me will never change his mind and will not consider the woman's age. Moreover, Xiong is kind and considerate, entrusted for life, and there is no divorce in the middle. " Say 1000 words, say 10000 words. On the road of feelings, Yan Wen can't bear any more troubles. She just wants a quiet harbor.
However, people are not as good as heaven.19371February 3 13, Nanjing fell, and Yan Wen and her husband took refuge in Hong Kong. Xiong Xiling was disappointed with the future of the country and died of a cerebral hemorrhage. Professor Xu Dishan, who teaches at the University of Hong Kong, is in charge of the whole process. Zhu Jingnong, Zhu's nephew, is a bridge with Xu Dishan, so Xu Dishan should also be called "Uncle" Xiong Xiling.
Since then, Yan Wen spent the rest of his life doing charity, which has nothing to do with his children. From 65438 to 0949, she went to Taiwan Province Province, then moved to the United States and finally settled in Taiwan Province Province.
1963, when Yan Wen learned the news of Junyi Zhu's death in Shanghai, he was shocked and speechless. Suddenly, he was struck by an inexplicable sadness, and he would never see each other again in his life. "For this bad news, I am utterly confused, the old love rekindles, and I can't sleep at night. All the past events that settled in my mind came to me one by one, so clear and so real ... "Yan Wen finally couldn't understand.
Yan Wen wrote a memoir "The Past" when he was nearly ninety years old, which recorded the joys and sorrows of his life. 1999 1 10/October 10, Yan Wen died peacefully at home at the age of 101.
I don't know why, Yan Wen's experience always reminds me of that sentence: When you trust a person without reservation, there will only be two outcomes in the end, either that person in life or a lesson in life. It's just that this course has made Yan Wen's life too heavy. Should I say that the encounter with Junyi Zhu was a difficult moment for Yan Wen to survive in this life? ...
