Mr. and Mrs. Song raised six children. Their three daughters, Song Ailing, Soong Ching Ling and Song Meiling, have a special position in the modern history of China. In the education and training of children, Song Yaoru adheres to three basic concepts: First, "no matter the reputation, we must take the lead"; Second, men and women are the same. Being a woman should not prevent her from becoming an accomplished and successful citizen of the motherland. The third is to make friends with children and practice influence and education in daily life.
The Song sisters' childhood and adolescence were the period when the people of China rose up against imperialism and feudalism, and feudalism enveloped the land of China. Following Dr. Sun Yat-sen's revolution, Song Jiashu first opened up a paradise without feudal barriers in his family, so that his three daughters were fortunate to grow up healthily in a democratic, equal and advanced living environment.
Ai Ling and Meiling are brilliant, bold and provocative. When they were only five years old, Song Jiashu sent them to a boarding school, the Chinese and Western Girls' School. Qingling is as clever as her sister, but not as bold and sharp as her sister. At the age of 7, her father also sent her to a girls' school that combines Chinese and western culture. When Aileen 13 years old, Mr. and Mrs. Song Jiashu left her alone to study in the United States, making Aileen one of the first women in modern China history to go to the United States for higher education.
1908, the Song couple sent their second daughter Qingling and their third daughter Meiling to the United States for education. At that time, she was 1 1 years old. Because of her young age, she was registered as a special student in Westrian Girls' School. Formal students are not allowed to enter school until 19 12 years old. Song Jiashu not only let his three daughters not suffer at all, "A woman without talent is virtue." Ai Ling is very talented in music and performance, so the Song family strives to be the best "partner" for their daughter's performance. In the evening, Mrs. Song often plays the piano skillfully and intently, and several brothers and sisters get together to listen to the duet of Song Jiashu and her eldest daughter. Listen to the southern American folk songs that my father hummed with the piano in his pure and loud voice. Aileen, Qingling and her brothers and sisters worship, adore and love their parents from the bottom of their hearts.
Qingling is steady and shy by nature. She is always the quietest one when she is with her brothers and sisters. However, the living environment and atmosphere created by Song Jiashu for children also benefited Xiao Qingling from nature. During the holiday, the three sisters and their little brother get together, which is their happiest day. They play in the yard, climb over the wall and play in other people's fields; They run in the fields, collect flowers and plants, catch insects and birds, and laugh heartily. On one occasion, the brother and sister played the game of pulling rickshaws. Yuling pretends to be a rickshaw driver, Qingling pretends to be a passenger, and her sister and brother are skipping behind. While having fun, unexpectedly, the "driver" pulled the car too hard, lost control of his hands and threw the "passenger" out at once. The "coachman" stood there, knowing that he was in trouble; The "passenger" was pained and looked unhappy. When Song Jiashu learned of this, he said to Aileen affectionately, "You should also be measured when playing games. The rickshaw puller is not just exerting his strength! How to pull business if you hurt passengers? " Xiao Yuling smiled shyly. Song Yaoru smiled and said to Soong Ching Ling, "It's amazing that our' passengers' are so generous, so brave and strong!" Xiao Qingling was praised and encouraged by her father, and the clouds on her face cleared away. When she grows up, Qingling really grows into a great woman who is full of love and tolerance and dares to fight evil!
