Compared with her contemporaries, Sheng Qi has more than them: she can also go to hell. Such a seven-year-old child really subverts the world's definition of celebrity-
Miss Sheng Qi was born in 1900. She was the daughter of Sheng Xuanhuai, an important minister in the late Qing Dynasty, and Wang Yusheng, a provincial official, at the age of 56. Because she is an old maid, she is smart and delicate since she was a child, which is the favorite of Sheng Xuanhuai and his wife.
/kloc-Sheng Qi, 0/6 years old, has grown slim. Under the careful cultivation of her parents, she is not only eloquent, but also full of ideas and opinions. After her father died, she often accompanied her mother to deal with related problems in various public places. Over time, when she was less than 20 years old, her name resounded throughout Shanghai.
/kloc-When she was 0/7 years old, Sheng Qi broke into a person who influenced her life: Song Ziwen, the later minister of national finance. Song Ziwen met Sheng Qi because he was an office secretary at Hanyeping Company in Sheng Xuanhuai, Shanghai. At that time, Song Ziwen was 23 years old and had just returned from gold plating abroad. Because he works in Shengjia, he often goes in and out of Fu Sheng, and naturally he meets beautiful Shengji. When I first met Sheng Qi, Song Ziwen was fascinated by her beauty. He used "fairy" to describe Sheng Qi when he first met him, which shows that Sheng Qi had an extraordinary appearance when he was young. At that time, Song Ziwen described his first arrogance in his diary. He wrote: "The first time I saw her, it was like seeing a fairy come down to earth!" " Getting the moon first is an advantage. Soon Song Ziwen began to launch various pursuit offensives against Miss Dong Jia, and he also took the initiative to become an English teacher of Shengqi. In her spare time, Song Ziwen always tries her best to show her her extraordinary talents and overseas experiences. After a long time, the heart of "Seeds of Love" slowly approached Song Ziwen. But at this juncture, Sheng Qi's mother Zhuang began to play Yuanyang. One of the important reasons why Mother Zhuang opposed their association was that she sent Li, the housekeeper, to Guangzhou to investigate the Song family's room and learned that Song's father was only a church violinist, which was definitely not worthy of the rich family.
In order to break up the mandarin ducks, Zhuang transferred to Wuhan, far away from Shanghai, as a temporary worker. But Song Ziwen went back for a few days and continued to pester Sanki. In order to talk to Sheng Qi, he even stopped Sheng Qi's car on the main road. Sheng Qi sympathizes with him. She didn't want to break off contact with Song Ziwen, but because of her mother's stubbornness, she had to do so. So she secretly handed Song Ziwen a note from the window and asked him to meet in Hangzhou. On the day of meeting, Song Ziwen said to Sheng Qi with three tickets to Guangzhou: "Let's go to the revolution together. Young people should travel and the revolution will succeed. " From this, we can know that Song Ziwen is ready to take refuge in Sun Yat-sen at this time. But Sheng Qi is very hesitant about this. Miss Ba, who was with her, looked at it and said, "Why do you still want to drag two people together?" Song Ziwen looked at Shengqi seriously, thinking that Shengqi was going to elope with himself this time. Ke Chengqi has been pampered in the deep house compound since he was a child. Although she has ambition to do great things, it is impossible to elope with him in any case. Shengqi dare not look into Song Ziwen's eyes. He only took out A Jin leaves (a gift in the shape of golden leaves) and said to him who didn't have much money, "Give you this Jin Yezi! I can't go with you! " Song Ziwen held back his sadness and took Jin Yezi and said, "I lent it to you. I will definitely come back tomorrow." Sheng nodded and stopped looking at him. Song Ziwen turned away reluctantly.
After that, Shengqi kept Song Ziwen's promise and waited for him to come back. Shengqi was full of confidence in Song Ziwen and thought he would succeed. She married her with colorful auspicious clouds, but after all, she was only half right. Many years later, when Song Ziwen returned to Shanghai, he did become famous, but he was surrounded by beautiful women. After receiving the news, Sheng Qi was seriously ill. This illness is the only gaffe in Sheng Qi's ups and downs. However, after she got well, she was relieved. More than a year later, at the age of 32, she married her mother's nephew Zhuang Zhujiu. Judging from the memory of Song Ziwen and Shengqi, Shengqijue is an extremely noble woman. She can wait for Song Ziwen for nearly ten years and give him A Jin leaves, which shows her deep love for Song Ziwen. But even so, she didn't take the initiative to find him in these years. Among them, naturally, she refused to bow her head because of the nobility in her bones. Song Ziwen didn't really forget Shengqi, but with the passage of time and the complexity of the situation, he was not sure about Shengqi's situation. In troubled times, he also threw away the old vows.
Many years later, Song Ziwen returned to Shanghai to continue this frontier. However, at the deliberately arranged meeting banquet, Ke Chengqi only coldly left a sentence "My husband is still waiting for me at home" and turned away. Later, someone asked about this past, and the proud Sheng Qi said, "Why should I be so wordy?". Everyone has his own life, so why bother? Besides, he is a high-ranking official, so why should I curry favor with him? " But then again, he hasn't returned my Jin Yezi yet! ""This is seven. At any time, he will not cling to anyone for power. All this is determined by the nobility in his bones and is innate.
What happened later forced Sheng Qi to lower his noble head: her nephew, Sheng Duyu, the son of Sheng Laosi, was put in prison for various reasons. Ben has nothing to do with Shengqi in this matter. However, after Sheng Jia heard that Song Ziwen, the president of the Executive Yuan of the National Government, was in charge of everything directly, all this began to have something to do with Sheng Qi. Sheng's family took turns persuading Sheng Qi to call for help, but Sheng Qi refused. You know, this man once betrayed her. She used to give him a bad face, and now she wants to pull her face down and beg him. This is definitely not what she wants to do. Seeing that Sheng Qi refused to "condescend" to make a phone call, his wife Ye Yuanchan ran to Miss Qi's house and knelt down in front of her and said, "I can't afford it if you don't call!" Chengqi couldn't beat her, so she agreed: "Well, I hang up, so I can't just make this call!" " Then, ChengQi hung up a phone call to Song Ziwen. Although Sheng Qi asked for help on the phone, he kept carrying it, acting like you love me. Song Ziwen, who got a call from Sheng Qi, was very excited on the other end. He rushed to answer: "ok, you must let people go, don't worry." Shengqi was a little uneasy, so she gave Song Ziwen a difficult problem: "I want to have lunch with Du Yu at noon tomorrow!" Song Ziwen at the other end of the phone hesitated for a few seconds, and then replied, "OK, I will definitely let you see Du Yu at noon tomorrow." . After Sheng Qi put down the phone, the whole family in the room began to cheer: "Sure enough, the big shots are different, and it will be done in one sentence." But at this time, Sheng Qi was very sad. The more she knows that the other person has her in her heart, the more sad she is. The more he works for her, the more United she is. For Sheng Qi, this phone call is probably the only "last resort" she thought of in her life. It should be noted that Sheng Qi will not compromise under any circumstances.
The uncompromising finished product has done many earth-shattering things. She once took all her brothers to court on the grounds that women should also participate in the division of property because they didn't like them to squander their property. In this lawsuit reported by Shenbao, Sheng Qi became the final winner. This lawsuit also made Sheng Qi the first woman in China to set an example for women's property inheritance. After this lawsuit, Sheng Qi got another 500,000 yuan. Later, she used some of these possessions to open the famous Shanghai Parlour Gate in Shanghai Beach. At that time, Shenbao described the newly opened Paramount Gate of Shengqi as follows: "The glass lighthouse is ten miles bright. Granite face, solemn and rich. Dali stone steps, rare to see ... glass floors, dazzling and charming ... "It's a pity that she later had to sell them because of poor management. Later, Paramount became a prestigious place for powerful people in Shanghai to communicate. Zhang Xueliang, Xu Zhimo and Lu Xiaoman are all frequent visitors to Paramount. At that time, Chaplin also visited Paramount when he visited Shanghai. Paramount has also trained countless stars, such as Zhou Xuan, a popular actress who was assassinated, and Liang Shiqiu's wife in her later years. Like Paramount, Sheng Qi lived in troubled times in the first half of her life, but lived a quiet life in the first half. Shengqi has been living a rich life in troubled times with her husband Zhuang Zhujiu's high income and huge legacy. She lives in a garden house, wears exquisite cheongsam, eats delicious food, drinks the best coffee and smokes expensive cigars. ...
What is even more enviable is that Sheng Qi has both children and conjugal love.
No.8 Yuyuan Community, near the intersection of Changshu Road, Huaihai Middle Road, Shanghai, was then Miss Sheng Qi's garden villa. This villa is a single house, three stories high, and there is an independent garden downstairs. The garden is planted with fruit trees and flowers that Sheng Qi likes, as well as her dreams. On weekdays, after her husband goes to work and her children go to school, she walks around, occasionally gets together with her sister, Miss Katsuba, and occasionally participates in some social activities that she thinks are meaningful. On such days, she generally feels that the years are quiet. But all this changed after her husband was beaten as a counter-revolutionary and sent to the countryside for labor reform and died. Then, Sheng Qi's son, Zhuang Yuanduan, was beaten to the right and sent to rural labor reform in Anhui. After graduating from Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts, her daughter Zhuang was assigned to teach in Fujian because of her family background ... while Sheng Qi herself was forced to move out of the garden house and live in a place where no one should live: a narrow garage on Wuyuan Road mentioned at the beginning of the article. This garage is right at the septic tank. Every few days, a long tube will "chug chug" into her house and suck the feces away. The garage door faces the vegetable market, and people come and go every day. The design of this uninhabited garage naturally does not consider people: the ordinary house faces south, but it faces west. Because it faces west, it is extremely sultry here in summer, and sometimes it can make people faint. Every relative and friend who came to the garage to see Sheng Qi couldn't help crying after entering the door. After seeing the sacristy, he turned to comfort and said, "It's hot in summer and warm in winter here." Seeing that Shengqi can only make kerosene stoves without gas stoves, relatives and friends are sad for a while, but she doesn't agree: "kerosene stoves are not bad either." That's true, but when Sheng Qi first moved into the garage, she was not used to it herself. She never thought that one day she would sleep in a hard bed without a silk quilt. During the initial period, Sheng Qi suffered from insomnia every day, and she began to be afraid of the night, because there were always countless worries waiting for her at the pillow. A few days later, Sheng Qi woke up from the chaos in the morning. When she walked to the door, she looked down and saw a beautiful little flower on the ground. She crouched down involuntarily and looked at the little red flower. It grows in the cracks, but it is still beautiful. This looks a lot like her when she was young. Sheng Qi suddenly felt refreshed, then carefully dug it out with a shovel and picked it into a big cup. Growing flowers is a common thing before it is full of enthusiasm. At that time, planting flowers was just planting flowers. Now, she really grows flowers for life. On that day, Sheng Qi moved all the flowers that could be found near the garage. When these little flowers are framed by all kinds of strange containers, they actually emit strange brilliance in the sun. Sheng Qi looked at these little flowers, but she couldn't help crying. That night, maybe I was tired, maybe I was awakened by those flowers to hope for life. In a word, Sheng Qi slept soundly. Woke up the next day, Shengqi began to take out paper and pen. Yes, she will continue to write and draw in the garage. Since then, relatives and friends who came to visit Sheng Qi have never shed tears. Instead, I began to marvel at Shengqi beside the septic tank, which has always been so elegant and calm. She writes, paints and grows flowers. Her room is spotless, and she is as energetic as ever: her hair is not messy, and her coarse clothes are clean and tidy. ...
Not everything is the worst. After Sheng Qi suffered in the garage, her relatives and friends abroad, especially her nephew Sheng Duyu, have started a successful business and always send her money and cigars. Every time a relative or friend sends money to Sheng Qi, she always calls Yukiko Iwai for poor relatives to have dinner. They ate and drank as if everything were the same as yesterday. This kind of manner is quite a bit "poor and happy". But Sheng Qi's happiness is never true. Probably at this time, if someone asked Sheng Qi a philosophical question and answer that puzzled countless people, her answer would be the most satisfactory of the questioner. The problem is this: if you are chased by a tiger and accidentally fall off a cliff, you grab a cane and hang yourself in the air. When you have a tiger on your head and an abyss under your feet, what will you do when you see a ripe strawberry next to the rattan? This question stumped countless people, and Sheng Qi gave the answer: eat strawberries! Sheng Qi, who grows flowers, writes and paints gracefully in the garage, is not like the victim who fell into the air and tasted strawberries! Life is already very difficult. We should seize every possible opportunity to taste delicious food. This is Sheng Qi's answer! In this state of mind, the Hallows don't want to look at the past or the future, but only focus on living the present and making the present day as calm and elegant as possible. Because of this, every time Sheng Duyu sends a cigar to Sheng Qi, she will move a small chair and sit at the garage door, watching people passing by leisurely smoking cigars. The posture of holding seven cigars is no different from that when she was a Miss Seven. The difference is that the smoke ring she spit out is more round than before. People who can spit out smoke rings are always lonely, but loneliness never belongs to truly noble people. At this time, passers-by can't help but look askance. Pedestrians can judge from Sheng Qi's sitting posture and strong cigar smell that this must be the victim of a noble family. When a voice told them that this was Miss Sheng Qi, who was once popular in Shanghai, pedestrians suddenly realized. When leaving, pedestrians couldn't help looking back at the seven layers of smoke. Later, like most old people, Sheng Qi fell ill. Fortunately, a nephew she once saved by phone has been thinking about her and sent her medical expenses.
But even though he is sick, Sheng Qi is still optimistic and still dresses himself fresh and clean every day. Every night after finishing painting before going to bed, she said to herself, "Another day has passed, and there is still another day to earn." Then, Shengqi fell asleep quietly and contentedly. Sheng Qi's elegance under the impact of reality is the result of her good celebrity education and her lofty and arrogant character, but more importantly, it comes from her unusual mind and wisdom. Reality can torture the body, but not the spirit! This is the case for the arrogant strong. Fate can change people's situation, but it can't change people's attitude in front of the situation after all. The arrogant elegance really explains this famous saying. Sheng Qi, 83, still lived in the garage before her death, but she still maintained her usual elegance and calmness when she died. Before leaving, she murmured: "Not rich for three generations, not to mention that Shengjia has been rich for four generations since Shenglong, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi!" When Sheng Qi left, she was still clean and fresh, just like coming into this world.
It is commendable that the children of the flag, like their mothers, live as wonderful as possible in adversity. Her daughter Zhuang later became a famous arts and crafts artist. Many of her works have won prizes all over the country, and some of them have been sent to foreign exhibitions. After his recovery, her son Zhuang Yuan Duanbei went to the United States and became an elite in this field. They often meet to go to their mother's cemetery in the suburbs of Suzhou. Here, you can see the famous classical gardens in Suzhou. This is a garden-style luxury villa purchased by their ancestors, and the Shengshi Ancestral Hall is also here. Wandering in the garden is also the place where Sheng Qi lived countless times before her death. Here, she once carried Sheng Qi's dream and carved her elegant life. ...
