Besides Border Town, Shen Congwen is probably best known for his love letters to Zhang Zhaohe. For example:
I knew you would come, so I waited. ?
I have crossed bridges in many places, seen clouds many times and drunk many kinds of wine, but I have only loved one person at the right age. ?
Between green mountains and green waters, I want to hold your hand and cross this bridge. There are green leaves and red flowers on the bridge, people with flowing water under the bridge, moss on the other side of the bridge and white hair on the other side of the bridge?
The list goes on and on. Imagine a gentle man writing a beautiful pen and pouring out his love for his sweetheart on stationery, and this expression of love is as romantic as death. How many lesbians can stand it? Shen Congwen caught up with touching love words and persistence? Four women in Hefei? One of Zhang Zhaohe.
However, the good times did not last long. Only one year after marriage, Shen Congwen cheated on the poet Gao, while his wife was pregnant with Shen Longzhu, Shen Congwen's first child. Maybe everyone is surprised, why did the goddess who worked so hard to find her leave her shoes less than a year after marriage? This may have to start with the birth of Shen Congwen.
Shen Congwen was born in Fenghuang County, Xiangxi, Hunan Province. 1902 Phoenix is not an ancient city with serious commercialization. At that time, the phoenix was simple in folk customs but also notoriously poor. Forced to make a living, Shen Congwen, 14 years old, joined the ranks only after attending primary school and wandered in the border areas of Hunan, Sichuan and Guizhou. Until 1922, 20-year-old Shen Congwen took off his military uniform and came to Beijing. Shen Congwen has a college dream, but he is undoubtedly difficult to get into college with only a primary school education.
Juvenile Shen Congwen
He entered the Chinese language class in yenching university, but failed, so he has been auditing in Peking University. During this period, I published some works in the Morning Post and other newspapers. What did I think Shen Congwen's life would be like? Beijing drift? Generally speaking, relying on their own efforts, they finally took root in Beijing and spent their lives peacefully. However, life always inadvertently adds a lot of color to your life. Shen Congwen's surprise happened at 1929. That year, Shen Congwen went to Wusong Chinese Academy to teach and met a female student who made him fall in love at first sight? Zhang Zhaohe.
Zhang Zhaohe is real, isn't it? Golden phoenix? His father, Zhang, is a famous wealthy businessman in Anhui. Apart from his wealth, he is keen to make friends with celebrities and talents like Cai Yuanpei. He is also talented and handsome, including Zhang Zhaohe? Four women in Hefei? My father. Zhang Zhaohe was held in the palm of his father's hand since he was a child. She is luxurious and luxurious. At the age of 65,438+08, she won the first place in China's public women's all-around. Now, Zhang Zhaohe is a national goddess with good looks, a good family and a good reputation. If we want to say that the goddess does not lack anything, the most lacking is of course the pursuer.
Of course, Zhang Zhaohe has many suitors, and Shen Congwen is the most humble and special one. He is humble because among many suitors in Zhang Zhaohe, a poor scholar with rustic clothes, short stature and older age is really uncompetitive, just like Zhang Zhaohe's suitor who weaves her? Frog one? 、? Frog 2? 、? Frog three? And her second sister, Zhang Yunhe, quipped that Shen Congwen could only be ranked in? Toad number thirteen? . What makes Shen Congwen special is that this is probably the craziest love between teachers and students.
Shen Congwen was born in the countryside. Facing Miss Zhang Zhaohe, he was sensitive and self-abased, but he bravely sent his first love letter, which was out of control. Shen Congwen once said: I am not a genius, but I am patient. This may only be his writing experience, but does this sentence also apply to Shen Congwen's pursuit of Zhang Zhaohe? Be patient.
Shen Congwen took pains to write a love letter to Zhang Zhaohe, which made Zhang Zhaohe exhausted. He also went to the headmaster Hu Shi to complain. I didn't expect Hu Shi? Enlightened? Really, I grabbed Shen Congwen and praised him. Shen Congwen was still unknown at this time. Hu Shi called him? A genius in China's fiction world? . I have to say that Hu Shi's eyes are really vicious, but Miss Zhang didn't buy it at that time. She only thinks that teachers and principals are wolves and bandits, bullying people together, but there is no way to bomb Shen Congwen's love letter, so they can only deal with it coldly. Anyway.
But people are curious after all. If someone writes to you every day, I'm afraid you can't bear to open it. But this is a bad thing. I saw Shen Congwen's love letters written with deep feelings, extremely romantic and disgusting. Imagine, which young girl saw a love letter written with a delicate pen? We love each other all our lives. Is life still too short? Such a sentence does not yearn for love? Finally, Miss Zhang was moved by Shen Congwen and got married 1933.
When he got married, Shen Congwen's family was surrounded by walls, but he still refused the Zhang family's dowry. After the marriage, Shen Congwen gradually became famous, and the days were just the same, but at this moment, Shen Congwen derailed. Why did you cheat? Do you not cherish it when you get it, or abandon your wife and children when you become famous? Let's start with the first question. Zhang Zhaohe thinks that Shen Congwen, as a literati, is indifferent and treats money like dirt, but is this true?
Couples in their later years
Maybe, but more I believe it is Shen Congwen's inferiority complex in his bones, or is it his backbone? The backbone of the poor and the country people. This had a great influence on later married life. Although Zhang Zhaohe is a thrifty housekeeper, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. After all, life is getting harder and harder? Vulgar? Yes
What Shen Congwen likes is Zhang Zhaohe's elegance and beauty as a rich girl, as well as her fashionable dress and beautiful dress. However, due to Zhang Zhaohe's housework, her long hair was cut and her dress was stained, which quickly caused Shen Congwen's dissatisfaction: How did the goddess she married go bad? Goddess, why? Bad taste? Don't you know in your heart? Unfortunately, Shen Congwen really doesn't count. He only thinks that Zhang Zhaohe doesn't understand amorous feelings, is not romantic, and even becomes more and more tacky.
To say that Shen Congwen cheated, I think it may be that Shen Congwen turned his life into a fairy tale, because the princesses in fairy tales don't have to eat and drink Lazar, they just need to dress themselves up beautifully. There was nothing wrong with it, but was Shen Congwen the prince in the fairy tale? The humble new house is not like the legendary castle.
Then why did you cheat when your life became better after you became famous? Maybe, tired of Zhang Zhaohe? Vulgar? It may also be that most men will go bad if they have fame and money. Ironically, Shen Congwen had been having an affair with his cheating partner for eight years, but nothing came of it. He was also alienated from Zhang Zhaohe, but he lived together for 55 years.
Later generations also speculated on their marriage relationship and could not reach an agreement.
Fairy tales don't all end in comedy, at least not Shen Congwen.
