"Yu Fengzhi is my best wife, Zhao Yidi is my wife who shares weal and woe, Mrs. Bei is my cutest girlfriend, and my favorite is in New York (Bei Zuyi's wife Jiang Shiyun)."
990, 89-year-old Zhang Xueliang said.
In fact, there is also a wife who has a profound impact on Zhang Xueliang's life. Zhang Xueliang did not mention it at all. She is Zhang Xueliang's second wife Gu Ruiyu and Miss Gu Si.
The best memory in Gu Ruiyu's life is meeting, acquaintance and love with Zhang Xueliang.
1923, Gu Ruiyu and her Hanqing met for the first time at their second brother-in-law's house. At that time, Zhang Xueliang and Yu Fengzhi were married for 7 years, Gu Ruiyu was 18 years old, Zhang Xueliang was 21 years old, and Yu Fengzhi was 25 years old. Gu Ruiyu was born in Yangliuqing near Tianjin. She was tall and sweet and cute. However, when she was born, her family had already declined. When Gu Ruiyu grew up, she had no choice but to be an opera singer, but she did not give up her hobby - learning English. Whenever she had free time, she would attend cram school.
Gu Ruiyu has three sisters on it. Her eldest sister married a major general in Zhang Zuolin's army, her second sister married General Qi who had made a fortune with Zhang Zuolin, and her third sister married Zhang Xueliang's deputy general. When Gu Ruiyu was fine, she went to her sister's house to play and came into contact with some upper-class figures of the Northeast Army. She had a sense of intimacy and indescribable feelings towards the Northeast Army soldiers since she was a child.
On that day, Gu Ruiyu's second sister's family held a family dinner. Gu Ruiyu, who was learning English in a school run by the British in the Tianjin Concession, went to his second sister's house as soon as school was over.
, Zhang Xueliang, who graduated from the martial arts lecture hall and was studying English hard, also went there.
The first time we met, Gu Ruiyu was attracted by Zhang Xueliang's handsomeness. Zhang Xueliang was fascinated by Gu Ruiyu, who was as beautiful as orchid, and was even more surprised by her standard and fluent English. The two talked in English, with their eyes full of love at first sight and regretting that they met too late.
Zhang Xueliang was moved by Feng Zhi's seven-year itch in the end. He was moved by Gu Ruiyu. After Zhang Xueliang returned to the army, he missed Gu Ruiyu very much, but because of the heavy business, he had no time to invite him.
Gu Ruiyu's encounter this time gave Zhang Xueliang his heart. Since she parted with Zhang Xueliang, her heart was full of Zhang Xueliang's figure. Her second sister saw her thoughts and decided to find an opportunity to help them meet again.
In the winter of 1924, Zhang Xueliang, who was then the supervisor of the Northeast Airlines Office, bought a batch of British merchants' planes and wanted to come to Tianjin where Gu Ruiyu was located to meet with British merchants to negotiate with him. At this time, Gu Ruiyu's second sister and second brother-in-law proposed to Zhang Xueliang that Gu Ruiyu, who is proficient in British English, should be a negotiating translator.
Zhang Xueliang agreed happily.
This time Gu Ruiyu once again amazed Zhang Xueliang. Her pure and skillful English was just right with the British businessmen, and the negotiations were successful. Zhang Xueliang was very happy. He specially arranged a banquet in Tianjin for this success.
This meeting made the two people's relationship heat up rapidly. They communicated with each other in their hearts, admired each other in temperament, coaxed each other in their outlook on life, and fell in love.
But Zhang Xueliang loves him very much and is very contradictory. After all, he is a married man, and his first wife has given birth to four children for him, three sons and one daughter, Lu Ying, and the three sons are Lu Xun, Lu Yu and Lu Qi.
Zhang Xueliang's first wife Yu Fengzhi was a marriage arranged by his father Zhang Zuolin. He and Zhang Xueliang's father-in-law Yu Wendou were not only in-laws but also brothers. For his marriage to Yu Fengzhi, Zhang Zuolin once solemnly promised Yu Wendou:
"As long as Fengzhi gets married, my son promises not to marry a second wife."
Moreover, Yu Fengzhi is naturally beautiful, quiet and well-behaved, and well-educated. His father-in-law Yu Wendou was a very famous wealthy businessman at that time, with friends gathered. Yu Wendou cherished Fengzhi as his life, and Zhang Xueliang did not dare to blatantly give up Yu Fengzhi.
In addition, Yu Fengzhi has never done anything to sorry to Zhang Xueliang or the Zhang family. Since she married into the Zhang family, she has been well-organized inside and out. She actively participated in family affairs and socializing, and actively supported Zhang Xueliang's career. She encouraged Zhang Xueliang to attach importance to education, open primary and secondary schools, and pay 20,000 yuan out of her own pocket to build the "Xinmin Primary School" in the name of Zhang Xueliang, so that students can enroll for free.
In order to earn face for Zhang Xueliang and to assist Zhang Xueliang, she tried her best to recharge and took the initiative to study cultural knowledge at Shenyang University.
Zhang Xueliang advocated sports. When he held a sports meeting in Fengtian, Yu Fengzhi paid for the prizes out of his own pocket and personally presented the awards to support him.
As the eldest daughter-in-law, Yu Fengzhi personally handles many of the housework in the Marshal's Mansion. She is meticulous and never disappoints everyone. She likes such a virtuous hostess, and Zhang Xueliang also admires her.
Due to various reasons, although Zhang Xueliang was deeply in love with Gu Ruiyu, he did not dare to step beyond the line.
But the single Gu Ruiyu dares to go through fire and water for love and never hesitate for love.
1924, the Second Zhi-Feng War broke out. The war between the Zhi-Feng warlord Wu Peifu and the Feng-Feng warlord Zhang Zuolin warlord were fierce. The troops of Zhang Xueliang and Guo Songling were in charge of Yuguan. They carried out a back attack, with great casualties. They could not take any long attacks and attacked Jiumen. They suffered heavy casualties over and over again. At this critical moment, Gu Ruiyu sent Zhang Xueliang a letter of condolence full of lovesickness, which moved Zhang Xueliang very much. What surprised and happy Zhang Xueliang was that Gu Ruiyu actually came to visit him on the front line. Her love ignited Zhang Xueliang's fighting spirit even more. He spent the most difficult moment and achieved the final victory. Zhang Xueliang was promoted to Lieutenant General of the Army for his merits. Zhang Xueliang was moved by her fearlessness against the war. He was moved by her sincerity and was delighted by the good luck that Gu Ruiyu brought to him for the first time with the army. He felt that Gu Ruiyu was a unique woman.
In the following days, he began to consider how to legalize this factual marriage between him and Gu Ruiyu in the war.
In the autumn of this year, Zhang Xueliang went to Tianjin for vacation and secretly met Gu Ruiyu.
Gu Ruiyu's second brother-in-law saw that the two were in love with each other and was distressed when he saw that Zhang Xueliang could not give Gu Ruiyu a title, so he decided to treat the Moon Master to the end. Through Yang Yuting and others, he told Zhang Zuolin everything about Zhang Xueliang and Gu Ruiyu in the battlefield. What made Zhang Xueliang happy was that Zhang Zuolin expressed his acquiescence to his marriage with Gu Ruiyu. The reason for tacit approval may be that Gu Ruiyu's contribution to the army was made, and that it was a reward for Zhang Xueliang's victory. In addition, Yu Fengzhi's father Yu Wendou had passed away, and the promises of that year also disappeared.
So Zhang Xueliang went to discuss his marriage with his father. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zuolin said: "It is okay to marry her, but she must agree to three conditions: 1. You are allowed to perform on stage again; 2. You are not allowed to show up in public; 3. You are not allowed to participate in politics."
The first two conditions are obvious. Zhang Zuolin is not satisfied with her background and proposes that she should not be an actor and be a disgraceful person after she marrys into the Zhang family. Last article, Zhang Zuolin is worried that Gu Ruiyu will participate in politics in the future. What else can't be done by a woman who dares to go to the front line with her head on her back?
Gu Ruiyu hesitated for a moment after hearing the three conditions that Zhang Xueliang said, and agreed to all of them. She was willing to give up her hobbies for Zhang Xueliang, which shows how simple she loves Zhang Xueliang.
Zhang Xueliang found Yu Fengzhi and said frankly: "Sister, I have a woman outside..."
Yu Fengzhi's legs became weak after hearing this, but she quickly calmed down. She knew Zhang Xueliang too much and did not express much opposition to him finding a woman. After all, she had the support of her father-in-law.
She said lightly: "Hanqing, don't forget our agreement."
Zhang Xueliang and Yu Fengzhi on the wedding night, Yu Fengzhi made an agreement with him and said:
"I don't care how many women you will have outside in the future, but there is one thing you have to rely on my elder sister, that is, you can't take them back to the Marshal's Mansion."
Zhang Xueliang understood that it was the biggest requirement to win Yu Fengzhi's consent for the marriage, and it was impossible to let Gu Ruiyu enter the Marshal's Mansion.
So, in October 1924, Zhang Xueliang and Gu Ruiyu got married in Tianjin under the arrangement of Gu Ruiyu's sister and brother-in-law. For a long time later, Gu Ruiyu lived in Tianjin and could only be the identity of a concubine.
925 before the Spring Festival, she followed Zhang Xue Liang returned to Shenyang, and Zhang Xueliang bought a small foreign house at No. 28 Jingsan Road, Shenyang. As Gu Ruiyu's residence when he came to Shenyang, the home that Zhang Xueliang had most was this foreign house. htmlIn May, Zhang Xueliang wanted to lead his army to fight in the south, and Gu Ruiyu also wanted to go together. She said with tears in her eyes: "As long as you have you, I will be there, and even the ends of the world, I dare to go with you."
Zhang Xueliang looked at her She was determined and knew that she could not persuade her, so she would follow her. Unexpectedly, Gu Ruiyu was not adapted to the living environment in the south. She often got sick, couldn't eat well, and couldn't sleep well, and sometimes she kept vomiting. Seeing that she was so uncomfortable, Zhang Xueliang wanted to send her back, but she refused. She was very strong and always complained in front of Zhang Xueliang. Zhang Xueliang admired her very much. When Zhang Xueliang led his troops back to Qinhuangdao to form the Northeast Navy, Gu Ruiyu was still happy.
When Zhang Xueliang was busy with food and sleep for the first navy to form the Northeast Army, Gu Ruiyu stays with him until late at night every day, waiting for him and serving his daily life.
is here, she is used to eating seafood. Sometimes seafood allergies cause her skin to be red, swollen and itchy, accompanied by vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea and even shock, but she never gave up. She gradually adapted to the environment with her strong perseverance. Everything Gu Ruiyu did touched Zhang Xueliang deeply. He silently remembered her goodness in his heart and sincerely admired her, the "Mrs. Follow the Army".
But the relationship between them did not last three years before it appeared.
925 Zhang Xueliang led his army north due to Guo Songling's turn against him, and Gu Ruiyu continued to accompany the army. Zhang Xueliang was worried and worried in the cold. General Senator Yang Yuting brought opium to comfort Zhang Xueliang, saying that this thing can relieve fatigue and lure Zhang Xueliang to take it.
Zhang Xueliang unfortunately became addicted to opium. The outside world said that it was Gu Ruiyu's "Mrs. Following the Army"'s dereliction of duty, which caused criticism from the Zhang family.
Gu Ruiyu cried and blamed herself for this, but what's the use?
By the autumn of 1926, she decided to make up for her merits and help Zhang Xueliang quit smoking, but she didn't know how to deal with the mistakes. She hurriedly asked the British doctor Heath to help quit smoking, and tossed the young marshal for several days and nights, and almost died, but she didn't succeed. Then, she listened and found a Japanese doctor named Yamada Jiro in Tianjin to help Zhang Xueliang quit drugs. Gu Ruiyu had no idea about this Japanese doctor and made common sense mistakes. She actually believed the words of Japanese doctors to use morphine. Drugs came to help Zhang Xueliang quit smoking, which eventually made Zhang Xueliang infected with morphine that was even more difficult to quit, and the Japanese cheated a lot of money and disappeared.
Zhang Xueliang did not blame her for it. It was winter of the year and she still allowed her to join Henan. Soon after she arrived in Henan, Gu Ruiyu fell seriously ill.
Like before, Gu Ruiyu still did not complain or be tired. Even if Zhang Xueliang advised her to return to Tianjin for treatment, she would not go back, saying that she was worried that the young marshal would be left without anyone to take care of her when the war was about to be taken care of and she needed to stay.
Gu Ruiyu was treating her illness while taking care of Zhang Xueliang's daily life. Until the end of the war, Zhang Xueliang once again moved her. Zhang Xueliang bought a luxurious house for her in the French Concession in Tianjin, and also bought real estate and clothes for Gu Ruiyu in the capital. He took her to the karaoke bar, cinema, theater, and eat all kinds of delicious food... All the Zhang Xueliang that Gu Ruiyu wanted was satisfied, and the relationship between the two gradually deepened.
But Gu Ruiyu in the honey pot started to do it. She asked Zhang Xueliang from time to time, feeling that she had worked hard and made great contributions with the army. , the Marshal's Mansion must have its own place no matter how hard it is.
But this touched Zhang Xueliang's bottom line, he couldn't do it.
Gu Ruiyu began to be petty, and she would quarrel with Zhang Xueliang for a little bit of a small matter. She proposed to separate from him on the excuse that Zhang Xueliang was busy with military affairs and would no longer join the army. Gu Ruiyu, who has always been gentle and understanding, has greatly reduced the impression of Zhang Xueliang.
Gu Ruiyu, who lives alone in Tianjin, completely indulged her indifferently regardless of Zhang Xueliang's feelings. She often danced, went to bars, played mahjong and did not return late at night, and even listened to operas outside for days and nights without returning home. What Zhang Xueliang couldn't stand was that she often invited Mei Lanfang and other famous actors in the name of Zhang Xueliang to sing in her friend's private apartment, which affected the box office revenue of those famous actors and caused dissatisfaction among some famous actors. When Zhang Xueliang learned about it, he was very annoyed and repeatedly refused to let her do this in his name. However, Gu Ruiyu continued to do whatever she wanted, which once again violated Zhang Xueliang's bottom line.
Zhang Xueliang began to get bored with her. It was also officially during this period that Zhang Xueliang met Miss Zhao Si, 16, at the Caigongguan dance in Tianjin. She was 11 years younger than Zhang Xueliang. The two became fans' confidants. Zhang Xueliang went to Beidaihe to escape the summer heat and was also accompanied by Miss Zhao Si, and Gu Ruiyu was unaware of these.
Soon after, Gu Ruiyu did something that made Zhang Xueliang break with her completely.
In June 11928, the Huanggutun incident shocked China and the world, and Zhang Zuolin was killed. The Japanese have always wanted to get rid of Zhang Zuolin, trying to create chaos in the Northeast to control the Northeast. In order to crush the Japanese army's plan, the entire General of the General Office did not die in secret, and the upper and lower levels cooperated closely to give the Japanese army the illusion of Zhang Zuolin's life, waiting for Zhang Xueliang's return.
However, Gu Ruiyu, who lives in Tianjin, acted rashly during the period of her secret funeral. She swaggered back to Shenyang, living not far from the Marshal's Mansion, waiting for Zhang Xueliang.
This aroused great suspicion from the Japanese Kwantung Army, saying that "Zhang Xueliang's wife Gu Ruiyu returned to Feng from Jin, which means that Zhang Zuolin will undoubtedly die in Huanggutun. Otherwise, Mrs. Ru, who has always had no close relationship with the Grand Marshal's Mansion, would not return to Kwantung alone when Zhang Xueliang was not in Fengtian."
Fortunately, Zhang Zuolin's fifth wife Zhang Shouyi was smart and courageous, and dealt with the Japanese to dispel the suspicion of the Japanese army, and finally waited for Zhang Xueliang, who disguised himself as a chef.
This time Gu Ruiyu's stupidity made Zhang Xueliang hate him and become hated.
Later Gu Ruiyu did something that completely broke Zhang Xueliang and her.
Yang and Chang wanted to replace Zhang Xueliang's regime, so they planned to bribe Gu Ruiyu as an insider, so they asked their concubine to play mahjong with Gu Ruiyu and became sworn sisters with her.
Zhang Xueliang found something wrong with Yang, so he dissuaded Gu Ruiyu from staying away from them, but Gu Ruiyu refused to listen and fell into a trap and accidentally leaked Zhang Xueliang's information.
Soon, Yang Yuting pretended to celebrate his father's birthday and invited Gu Ruiyu and Zhang Xueliang to a banquet. Zhang Xueliang could not withstand Gu Ruiyu's
soft and went with her, but was almost assassinated by a group of Japanese ronin. Fortunately, Yu Fengzhi was smart and careful to see through Yang Yuting's plan.
Zhang Xueliang was extremely disappointed with Gu Ruiyu. Only then did Gu Ruiyu realize that he was being used by others and had no face to stay in Shenyang, so he had to return to Tianjin to live alone.
One day, Gu Ruiyu saw a statement in the newspaper that Zhao Qinghua had severed relations with his daughter: "The four girls Qixia, who have been confused by freedom and equality recently, eloped and disappeared from where to go..." He learned that Zhang Xueliang had already loved something and was completely discouraged.
1931, Zhang Xueliang and Gu Ruiyu dissolved their marriage. During the divorce, neither of them came forward. Zhang Xueliang asked someone to ask Gu Ruiyu to propose three divorce conditions: "1. Do not use Zhang Xueliang's name to do things; 2. Do not be prostituted; 3. You can remarry." Gu Ruiyu agreed.
Zhang Xueliang bought a small building for Gu Ruiyu in the British Concession in Tianjin and gave her 100,000 yuan in living expenses.
The divorced Gu Ruiyu has always lived in Tianjin and has not remarried. She changed her name to Meng Xiaoyu.
The blow to this marriage allowed her to learn to be independent. She did not violate the conditions proposed by the Zhang family before and after the divorce. In order to live out dignity and live out a new self, she chose to teach in the Department of Physics of Nankai University and worked until she retired in 1957.
What Gu Ruiyu couldn't let go of was her first love Zhang Xueliang. She was afraid of forgetting every bit of her time with Zhang Xueliang. She posted photos of Zhang Xueliang on her desk, wall, and bookshelf of her home.
982, Gu Ruiyu died of illness at the age of 83. But Zhang Xueliang's heart has long disappeared from Gu Ruiyu. In an interview in his later years, he said: "Yu Fengzhi is the best wife, Zhao Yidi is the most wives who share weal and woe, Mrs. Bei is the cutest girlfriend, and my favorite is in New York (Jiang Shiyun)."
After gaining freedom, Zhang Xueliang couldn't wait to fly to the United States. The first thing he visited was the woman he had not got - Mrs. Bei Jiang Shiyun, who lived in her house for three months.
Summary:
Zhang Xueliang and Gu Ruiyu failed to stay together for a long time. On the one hand, because Gu Ruiyu and Zhang Xueliang's identity mismatch, she was just a woman who sang opera. On the other hand, the character she had worked hard to create - "Mrs. Follow the Jun", was also ruined by herself. When Zhang Xueliang needed her, she no longer followed the Jun, but kept showing off her temperament and constantly promoting her desires. Her IQ could not keep up with her desires. In the end, the passion faded and she lost Zhang Xueliang's love. Maybe she realized it later, but she could only stay with those photos to survive.
