Her husband has written the most romantic love poems and made the boldest confessions, but none of them are done for her. She is the first woman in Chinese history to be "divorced" according to Western laws. If you think with sympathy, this is probably the darkest moment for a woman, Zhang Youyi may smile and say: What is this!
She also experienced the fact that she had just given birth to her first child, and she went abroad to study without any nostalgia on the grounds that she fulfilled her parents' wish to hold her grandson.
She went to accompany her to study and was pregnant again, but her husband said indifferently, "Please get rid of it." At this time, Xu Zhimo was in love with Lin Huiyin and couldn't wait to get rid of her, but she couldn't figure out what she had done wrong?
See here, if you think this is a miserable and helpless woman, that's half right. This "tragic" woman and the "country bun" in the eyes of her ex-husband, became braver and more determined after losing her marriage or even losing her beloved son.
She shines in the business world of the Republic of China, and has become a strong business woman who can almost influence the fashion of women in the Republic of China, and has also gained beautiful love. The reality is much more exciting than that of a movie!
Zhang Youyi married Xu Zhimo, but in fact he was not full of admiration and expectation.
That year, she finally got the opportunity to go to Suzhou to go to school. Although there are many female classmates with foot binding in the school and all strict male teachers, she thinks it is good to be able to come out to study!
But a few years later, the fourth brother introduced her to a marriage, and she agreed and got married.
Why did Zhang Youyi, who had been to school and received new ideas, listen to the fourth brother so much?
Zhang family is a wealthy family in Baoshan, Jiangsu. It has a prosperous population and a prosperous family business. Although it is still influenced by the old feudal ideas, it also has the courage to accept new ideas.
Zhang Youyi's second and fourth brothers were famous ideological progressive people at that time. When she was a child, her mother wanted to bind her feet for Zhang Youyi. She cried in pain. Her mother said that it hurts a little now, but her big feet will not get married in the future!
Second brother Zhang Junmai stood up and said, if the little girl can’t get married, I will take care of her! This made Zhang Youyi escape the fate of foot binding.
Fourth Brother Zhang Jiayu is outstanding in talent. During his tenure as the secretary of the Zhejiang Governor, he came into contact with the talented Xu Zhimo and was very optimistic about this young man.
Xu Zhimo is also a son of a wealthy family. His father Xu Shenru is well-read in poetry and books, and he is humble and polite. The two families quickly made a marriage for their children.
Although they all came to accomplish this marriage on their parents' orders, unlike Xu Zhimo who rejected himself from the beginning, Zhang Youyi first accepted such an arrangement. After all, his father and brother would not harm him.
Facts also prove that as a young grandmother and daughter-in-law, Zhang Youyi got married right. My parents-in-law loves Zhang Youyi very much. When Xu Zhimo's attitude towards her is not good, his parents also protect Zhang Youyi.
But The more satisfied the parents are, the more rebellious Xu Zhimo is. He is even unwilling to get close to and know Zhang Youyi. He spent the wedding night in silence. In Xu Zhimo's view, having a child is just to satisfy his parents' wishes.
At this time, Zhang Youyi was still thinking that she had done nothing wrong. With a child, Xu Zhimo would always live a good life with him.
Until she went to the UK, she knew that her husband fell in love with the talented woman Lin Huiyin, and when she heard that her husband asked her to abort the child in her belly, she was discarded in the UK like an abandoned object, she finally realized that this man was not a good man.
So she turned to her second brother in Germany and went to Berlin to wait for childbirth. Until Xu Zhimo couldn't wait to fly to Berlin to sign a divorce with her. He also read: Sign quickly, otherwise Huiyin would have to return to China.
Zhang Youyi, who gave up, became the first woman to be divorced in Chinese history.
But this also opened the door to her new world.
Zhang Youyi studied hard in Germany, and her hard life did not defeat her. The death of her young son made her lose a layer of skin, but it did not destroy her. Later, under the call of her parents, she returned to China.
To be precise, her ex-in-law was summoned, but she regarded her two elders as her parents and did not change because of the end of her marriage with Xu Zhimo.
Xu Shenru and his wife simply recognized Zhang Youyi as their goddaughter, and since then the kinship between the two families has been unblocked.
Zhang Youyi, who returned to Shanghai, naturally had a smooth career. She served as the principal of a girl's school and the general manager of a department store. She combined the money from the Xu family and the Zhang family, bought scarce materials such as dyes and cotton yarn in time, and made a lot of money.
has made a name for itself in the business world, which is just one of Zhang Youyi's abilities. What's more valuable is that she has always maintained a simple, kind and generous heart.
After divorced from Xu Zhimo, she still fulfilled her filial piety to the two elders of the Xu family as their daughter. Xu Zhimo even married Lu Xiaoman, Xu's father and mother broke off relations with him, gave all the property to Zhang Youyi, and went to Zhang Youyi to support her.
Xu Zhimo's plane crashed, Lu Xiaoman could not accept this fact and drove the person who informed the news out of the door.
Zhang Youyi asked his eldest son Ah Huan and his eighth brother to collect the body, and held a decent funeral for Xu Zhimo as the adopted daughter of the Xu family.
Ironically, Xu Zhimo did not even attend the funeral of either Zhang Youyi's parents during his lifetime, regardless of the relationship between husband and wife, nor the friendship between his brothers with Zhang Youyi.
repaying grievances with kindness, Zhang Youyi did it.
not only did it, but she also did it beyond her imagination.
In addition to respecting the two elders of the Xu family, Zhang Youyi also took on the life of Xu Zhimo's widow Lu Xiaoman and gave Lu Xiaoman living expenses.
Life may have given Zhang Youyi a lot of twists and turns, but her kindness and gentleness are always there, inadvertently flashing in the darkest moments, illuminating one side.
Later, Zhang Youyi went to Hong Kong and met Dr. Su Jizhi. Two equally gentle souls attracted each other.
Although love comes late, it is more fragrant like mellow wine. After 20 years of warmth, Dr. Su left, and Zhang Youyi moved to the United States to reunite with her children and grandchildren and enjoy her old age.
Zhang Youyi has had heart-wrenching pain and unforgettable injuries throughout her life, but they are all digested by the deep tenacity in her bones, leaving behind the kindness and persistence that nourishes her soul.
She succeeded in business, served her parents with filial piety, fulfilled her kindness to her ex-husband, and gave her maternal love to her children. Although she is not as often praised as outstanding women of her contemporary era, her silent happiness is also worthy of comfort.
