Brief introduction of Zhang Youyi
Zhang Youyi is Xu Zhimo's original wife. As we all know, the two of them belong to an arranged marriage. Xu Zhimo doesn't love her. After Xu Zhimo fell in love with Lin, he asked Zhang Youyi to have an abortion and divorce. Finally, Zhang Youyi officially divorced after giving birth to a child. After that, she went to Germany to study early childhood education, and after returning home, she taught German at Soochow University. From 1928, Zhang Youyi went into business and worked as a professional manager, then moved to Hong Kong and married her second husband, Su Jizhi, a doctor.
The Life of the Characters in Zhang Youyi's Works
19 12 In July, Cheng Dequan, Governor of Jiangsu Province, founded the Second Normal School for Women in Jiangsu Province. At the age of 12, Zhang Youyi entered this school with the help of his second brother Zhang Junmai and his fourth brother Zhang Jiaao. Yang Daquan, the first member of the school, attached importance to women's education, and Zhang Youyi received higher education here.
But three years later, Zhang Youyi, who had not graduated, was taken home and married. It was her fourth brother, Zhang Jiaao, who was the secretary of Zhejiang Governor Zhu Rui at that time. When he visited the school, he found a very talented student in Hangzhou No.1 Middle School, namely Xu Zhimo. At that time, the Xu family was already a wealthy businessman in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was also popular for Xu Zhimo's father to marry the Zhang family, which had a huge political and economic position, so Xu's father Shen Ru decided on their engagement. So at the age of 15, Zhang Youyi dropped out of school and got married and became a housewife in Zhejiang. Xu Zhimo's attitude: "The life of a matchmaker is subject to parents."
Xu Jikai Ahuan was born in 19 18, and soon Xu Zhimo went abroad. 1920, Xu Zhimo received a letter from Zhang Junmai and couldn't wait to pull Zhang Youyi to his side. Zhang Youyi recalled Xu Zhimo's attitude at that time. "I leaned on the stern deck and waited impatiently for landing, and then I saw Xu Zhimo standing in the crowd looking around." At this moment, my heart cooled a lot. He is wearing a slender black fur coat and a white silk scarf around his neck. Although I've never seen him in a suit. But I know it's him. I can see his attitude at a glance, and I can't be wrong, because he is the only one who has made it clear that he doesn't want to be there. "At this time, Xu Zhimo and Lin Xiangai. Soon Xu Zhimo filed for divorce, and Zhang Youyi, who was pregnant for two months, firmly agreed.
The second son Peter was born in 1922, so he signed a divorce with Xu Zhimo in Berlin. This is the first divorce case of western civilization in China history based on civil law. After signing the divorce agreement, Xu Zhimo followed her to the hospital, Peter. "He pressed his face against the window pane and looked fascinated." "He never asked me how to raise him and how he would live."
After the divorce, Zhang Youyi went to Paris to take refuge in his second brother, Zhang Junmai, and went to Germany with him to study early childhood education at Pestalozzi College. 1925 In the summer, she lost her beloved son Peter and was taken back to Shanghai by her eighth brother yu zhang IX. Soon after, she took her eldest son, Ah Huan, to Beijing to study. It was not until Zhang's mother died that she returned to Shanghai with her son. At that time, Zhang Jiaao was already the vice president of the Bank of China, presiding over the banking affairs of various countries in Shanghai, and Xu Shenru also gave Fan Yuan of Huashan Road, Haige Road 125, to Zhang Youyi, so that she had a good time in Shanghai.
Zhang Youyi first taught German at Soochow University, and later became the vice president of Shanghai Women's Commercial Bank with the support of Zhang Jiaao. At the same time, nine brothers Xu Zhimo opened a clothing company in Jing 'an Temple Road, and Zhang Youyi became the general manager of the company. This gives full play to her professional ability.
1934, the second brother Zhang Junmai presided over the establishment of the National Socialist Party, and she was invited to manage the party's finances. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, she accumulated military dyes and made a fortune.
On the eve of liberation, Zhang Youyi went to Hongkong. 1953, Zhang Youyi married Su Jizhi, a neighbor of Chinese medicine. Dr. Su studied in Japan and practiced medicine in Shanghai. He is also divorced and has children. Before marriage, she wrote to the United States and asked her son's eldest son, Xu Jikai, for advice: "Because I am a widow, I should listen to my son."
My son's reply was sincere: "My mother has been widowed for more than 30 years. She gave birth to me to caress me and bow down to raise me ... I am extremely happy in my mother's life, and my duties as a mother have been exhausted. Who can comfort my mother? Who's with mother? The mother is like a person, and the son asks the father. " A Huan works as a civil engineer in the United States. This letter is quite attractive to his father.
Times have changed, and Zhang Youyi made a vivid metaphor for this heavy life: "I am an autumn fan, only used to drive away blood-sucking mosquitoes. When the mosquito bit the moon, the owner tore up the fan. "
1967, when Zhang Youyi was 67 years old, he revisited Cambridge, England and Berlin, Germany with Dr. Su. Standing outside the hut where Xu Zhimo lived, she couldn't believe that she was so young. After her second husband died, Zhang Youyi went to live in New York.
After living together for 65,438+08 years, Dr. Su died in 65,438+0972, Zhang Youyi went to the United States and died in new york in 65,438+0988. He who had an emotional life with the poet Xu Zhimo lived the longest.
Zhang Youyi and her second husband.
1953 In August, Zhang Youyi, who had been wandering alone for 3 1 year, and her neighbor Sue came to Hongkong. The age is 5 1 year. He is a Chinese medicine practitioner who is three years younger than Zhang Youyi. His second husband got married in Tokyo and they lived happily for 28 years.
Zhang Youyi's children
Their eldest son was named Xu Jikai, nicknamed Huan, and their second son, nicknamed Peter, died at the age of three.
At the age of 0/3 in Xu Jikai/Kloc-,Xu Zhimo died in a plane crash and was raised by his mother. His nickname is "A Huan". Because this is the only biography of JOE Dante, the whole family has high hopes for it.
For Xu Zhimo's understanding, he only has a little vague memory, more from books. He said, "I can't remember my father." "According to this book, he is very enthusiastic, sincere to his friends and likes parties." No wonder. When he was born, Xu Zhimo was studying outside and didn't have much contact. Later, both parents went abroad to study and were taken care of by their grandparents. 13 years old, Xu Zhimo died in a car crash. However, nature's love for the world's flesh and blood has made him feel natural sympathy and understanding for his father. Many people think that Xu Zhimo's death is tantamount to a kind of "liberation", because Xu Zhimo has been in a dilemma and even exhausted situation in his love beyond life. He longed for a short and famous life like Byron and Shelley, and for the death of different mortals. What's more, Xu Zhimo was so obsessed with "flying" and "traveling" that he even took a pen name "Yun Zhonghe". Therefore, some people think that Xu Zhimo's death is a sudden wish, "feathering into immortality." But Xu Jikai saw something else. He summed up Xu Zhimo's life in one sentence: "I think my father's life is too bitter!" " "What's wrong with you? Probably not the frustration of disillusionment of political ideals brought back by Xu Zhimo from England, and the hardships of painstakingly pursuing perfection in his creation. He meant something else. Xu Jikai had contacts with his father's old friends Hu Shi, Liang Shiqiu, Gu Weijun and Kong Xiangxi. He witnessed his father's friends enjoying their days and their family life, and his personal emotional life was not as hard as his father's, which led to tragedy and emotion. Xu Jikai said that all his father's old friends have female hobbies and girlfriends. He had dinner with Hu Shi and saw that Hu Shi had brought an American girlfriend. Xu Jikai sighed, "If my father dies and lives to be ten years old, I believe there will still be women who want him" and "many women admire his literary talent". Hey, few sons of human beings are so kind to appreciate the personal emotional world of his dead father.
Personality assessment
When people are obsessed with "Mo" for Xu Zhimo's romance, enthusiasm, infatuation and persistence, we have to admit that he is ruthless and cruel to his original wife Zhang Youyi. Because of arranged marriage, Xu Zhimo despised Zhang Youyi so much from before marriage to after marriage. The first time I saw Zhang Youyi's photo, I curled my lips and said in disgust, "Hillbilly!" After marriage, Xu Zhimo never looked at Zhang Youyi again. I turned a blind eye to her except for fulfilling the most basic marital obligations. Even when fulfilling his marital obligations, he only followed his parents' wishes to have grandchildren. Xu Zhimo's indifference to her stems from his dislike of feudal ethics. Zhang Youyi was deeply influenced by China's traditional moral concept, with quiet and resolute personality and dignified manners. He is good at housework, raising children, taking care of his in-laws and managing money. But these advantages, in the eyes of independent poets, are ignorant and plain.
