Song Ailing set out from Shanghai, came to the United States, and began his study abroad career.
Song Ailing is very relaxed and happy to study in the United States.
The Song Ailing WESTERN Adrian Women's College is located in Macon, Georgia, near the west bank of the River Gee in Hocmard. The city is lush, quiet and elegant. Wesian Women's College was founded in 1836, formerly known as Georgia Women's College. 1843, Westrian Women's College was renamed United Methodist Church. At the beginning, the college was very small, with only one main building, so there were naturally not many students. Its students are usually young ladies from wealthy families in South America. Later, additional supporting buildings were built. At the beginning of the 20th century, the main building was changed from the architectural style of the Greek Renaissance to the gorgeous Victorian architecture, and a double-deck sloping roof was added, making it the "most perfect educational building". The student dormitory is on the top floor, with comfortable internal facilities, a large bathroom and dressing room, and a bathroom on each floor with a bathtub and a ceramic toilet. 1900, the college built another annex to provide accommodation for freshmen. The quiet and comfortable environment on campus provides good study and living conditions for girls who come here to study.
Song Yaoru's three daughters, Song Ailing, Soong Ching Ling and Song Meiling, all attended the Wisconsin Women's College. Later, this women's college became famous for cultivating the Song sisters.
Song Ailing first studied in the "preparatory class" of the college. Like her future husband Kong Xiangxi, she is also the first China student here. At first, people looked at her with curiosity and treated her with a complicated psychology that could not be explained clearly. Song Ailing can speak fluent English, but at first she was reserved, cold and unsmiling. It seems that she is the only one in the whole school who knows that a person's real value lies not in her clothes, not in her appearance, but in her knowledge. When there is nothing to do, Song Ailing will stand by and admire and study other students' American clothes. Song Ailing can calculate how much property each classmate's father has from a person's clothes. Of course, this inference is all in her mind.
Song Ailing's classmates think that her composure is shyness, and they all think that this chubby round-faced China girl will not pose any threat to them. However, Song Ailing's academic performance is outstanding, especially in mathematics, which is beyond the reach of all his classmates.
Slowly, the students found that this serious-looking China girl was actually frank, friendly, warm, cheerful and approachable, and she was very talented in music and performance. As a result, Song Ailing has become a "hot" figure that students like to talk about.
Since the students discovered the true character of this China girl, they would like to gather around her in their spare time, or squeeze into her dormitory with great interest to listen to Song Ailing telling the distant and mysterious oriental story in her sweet voice. Song Ailing's story will never be finished, and her dormitory has become a "club" for her classmates. Song Ailing's voice is sweet and loud, and her father teaches her to sing, which gives her an absolute advantage in performance. Whenever the school has a group activity or get-together, Song Ailing naturally becomes a conspicuous figure.
All this is due to Mrs. Gerry, the wife of Dean Gerry of Wesleyan Women's College.
Mrs. Gerry is an amiable and warm-hearted woman. It was she who tried her best to make Song Ailing feel at home, and gradually Song Ailing had an unforgettable feeling about Griff's motherhood. Song Ailing has changed and become more suitable for the American environment. She wears all American clothes, learns all kinds of American slang and speaks English fluently. It was only in 1 year that Song Ailing cut off his braid and combed it into a popular high-frequency style.
Song Ailing also benefited from his father's guidance. Song Yaoru often writes to her daughter to introduce her to the latest situation in Shanghai, recommend relevant China history books and encourage her to work hard. Song Ailing got inspiration and strength from his father's letter, and made great progress in all aspects.
From the oriental point of view, Song Ailing's appearance is not beautiful, and her appearance is often misunderstood. One day, a professor at Wesleyan College looked at her and said that Song Ailing had become a "beautiful American citizen". Song Ailing was very angry and retorted in front of the whole class: "I am not an American citizen, but a citizen of China. I am proud to be a citizen of China."
Song Ailing lives in a very turbulent time. At that time, the backwardness of China and the progress of the United States were obvious to all. Why is Song Ailing proud to be a citizen of China instead of the United States? Perhaps it is because of her background, her family and traditional ideas, or we can say that Song Ailing has always had a constant patriotism.
For the sake of what the professor said and what happened when she first came to the United States, Song Ailing always had a fire in her heart. The fire will be vented at the first opportunity.
This opportunity has finally come.
1906 65438+ 10, Song Ailing went to the north with the special approval of the college, because her uncle Bingzhong Wen came to Washington, the capital of the United States. Bingzhong Wen was sent by Empress Dowager Cixi to lead an education delegation from A Qing to visit American education.
It is against this background that Song Ailing's uncle Bingzhong Wen led a delegation to the United States. Song Ailing immediately went to Washington to visit his uncle. After seeing Bingzhong Wen, Song Ailing was very happy. After all, this is the first time she has met her relatives in her hometown since she came to America.
Later, Song Ailing, as a guest of Bingzhong Wen, attended the reception hosted by American President Roosevelt for the China education delegation. During the dinner, Song Ailing expressed his experience when he first came to the United States and criticized the "democracy" in the United States. At that time, the president of the United States may have been "stunned" by the momentum of the China girl in front of him; It is said that President Roosevelt apologized to Song Ailing on the spot.
At that time, Song Ailing's father, Song Yaoru, also raised money for the League in the United States. He was very excited when he learned about his daughter's performance in the local newspaper. The news also spread among the students. Song Ailing became a news figure, and everyone looked at her with envy and asked her about it.
