In a symposium in the literary and artistic circles of Beijing, New Fengxia first met Wu Zuguang . In her eyes, Wu Zuguang had thick eyebrows and big eyes, black hair, loud voice, funny language and charming. Xin Fengxia's eyes were full of admiration and envy.
At this time, Xin Fengxia had already sung " Liu Qiaoer " and was famous for singing, and was awarded the reputation of " Pingju Queen". The streets and alleys, peddlers and pawns were imitating her singing, "Qiao'er, I have been begging the Zhao family since I was young..."
, Xin Fengxia, who is famous for singing opera, has an unfulfilled wish in her heart - she wants to learn culture and be a cultural person.
Xinfengxia was born in poverty and was sold to Tianjin when she was young. Her adoptive parents were both urban poor and ignorant. Her adoptive father sold candied haws , and her adoptive mother did some needlework. "Children from poor families are early to become a family." Xin Fengxia picked up cinders on the street when she was a child. She studied opera at the age of six and starred in the age of fifteen.
When Xin Fengxia took the stage to perform, the actor was regarded as a lower-ranking and looked down upon. Xin Fengxia was very ambitious. She upholds the life belief of "Although I am looked down upon by others, I cannot look down on myself", cherish myself and sell her skills but not herself. The other two young sisters who performed with her were performing their own works, and they had a good income, wore gold and silver, and enjoyed delicious food. The Xinfengxia family had a difficult life, so she didn't envy them.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the social status of artists was improved. Xin Fengxia went to Beijing to sing operas. The drama "Liu Qiaoer" became famous and became popular all over the country. As long as the scenes she performed were full and full.
The life plan that Xin Fengxia has formulated for herself is to learn opera first, earn money to support her family, and then learn culture to make up for the regret of not being able to go to school. Now that she is famous for performing operas, she no longer lacks money, so she wants to learn culture.
With the help of Lao She , Wu Cuihuang and others, Xin Fengxia ordered a notebook with white paper. While singing, she practiced writing on the notebook, and sometimes used some of her only words to make sentences.
Xin Fengxia knows that it is not enough to rely on her to learn by herself. She is eager to marry a cultural person, help her learn in life, and influence her from her spiritual temperament.
Wu Zuguang is the first time he saw Wu Zuguang. Xin Fengxia has heard of Wu Zuguang's name for a long time. A few years ago, Xin Fengxia arranged a drama " Returning to People on a Snowy Night". The screenwriter was Wu Zuguang. Xin Fengxia often sang the theme song of the movie "Don't Let Youth", and the screenwriter of this movie was also Wu Zuguang.
Just in Xin Fengxia's imagination, Wu Zuguang was an old man. When he saw the real person, he found that he was so young, Xin Fengxia's heart was pounding with excitement.
When I met Wu Zuguang, Xin Fengxia was 24 years old and was so beautiful that she was full of glamor. This can be seen from her photos at that time.
The opera singer has two or three looks in the photo, and the real person is very beautiful. The charm between their every frown, smile, and every move cannot be displayed in the photo.
Xinfengxia is beautiful in photos, and the real person is even more charming.
There are many people who like Xin Fengxia. Some leaders asked Xin Fengxia to go there in the name of conversation. They behaved frivolously. When Xin Fengxia saw that the situation was wrong, she ran out quickly. There are also people who are matchmakers who introduce Xin Fengxia to young and middle-aged cadres with a bright future. Xin Fengxia is unmoved. She holds a belief that her future husband may not be beautiful or have no money. He must have a good character and education.
Lao She is very familiar with Xin Fengxia and Wu Zuguang. He thinks Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia are very compatible, so he takes the initiative to be a big media for the two.
Xin Fengxia couldn't ask for it. She wanted to marry a cultural person like Wu Zuguang, but Wu Zuguang was hesitant. He was ten years older than Xin Fengxia. Xin Fengxia was young and beautiful, with many suitors, and he was afraid that he would not be suitable.
Seeing that Wu Zuguang was hesitant, Xin Fengxia decided to "female chasing a man".Once, Xin Fengxia wanted to speak at the Youth Federation, and she took the opportunity to invite Wu Zuguang to her home and help her write a speech. In order to welcome Wu Zuguang's arrival, Xin Fengxia cut off the blooming peony in the courtyard, inserted it into bottles and jars, and lit a lily fragrance.
The careful Wu Zuguang found that Xin Fengxia's residence had many mosquitoes. After writing the manuscript for Xin Fengxia, he returned to his residence, took a pearl ribbed tent he brought from Hong Kong, and hung it for Xin Fengxia to the bedroom.
After returning from the performance, I saw a brand new gauze tent in the bedroom, and felt a sense of happiness arises.
The love between Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia has attracted a lot of rumors.
Their origins are very different. Wu Zuguang was born into a family of scholars from generation to generation. His great-grandfather Wu Dianying is the founder of Hubei New Army , and his father Wu Jingzhou is an expert in cultural relics identification. Xin Fengxia's adoptive parents are both illiterate urban poor people, and she grew up at the bottom of society.
Their origins are two extremes, and there is no docking point.
According to traditional perspective, Xin Fengxia is not worthy of Wu Zuguang, and in the eyes of some veteran cadres who came from Yan'an, Wu Zuguang is not worthy of Xin Fengxia. Wu Zuguang only returned from Hong Kong after the founding of the country. He carries many traces of life in Hong Kong and has divorced once. In the eyes of these old cadres, Wu Zuguang lives a romantic life, spends money on things, plays with women, is morally corrupt, and is irresponsible. He fell in love with Xin Fengxia, the beauty, and would throw it away after a while.
Many people, including Xin Fengxia's immediate boss, persuade Xin Fengxia to make careful choices so as not to regret it in the future.
Under the huge pressure of public opinion, their matchmaker Lao She also retreated a little. Xin Fengxia asked Wu Zuguang about Wu Zuguang's character from people who knew Wu Zuguang. They all said that Wu Zuguang was upright and a good person. Xin Fengxia felt relieved and knew that she had read the wrong person.
Perhaps influenced by her role as "Liu Qiaoer", Xin Fengxia showed amazing courage in her marriage. The more others opposed her, the more she wanted to make the wedding grand and lively and give them a fight back.
Xin Fengxia personally went to Dashilan to select the most expensive white wedding dress and the most expensive white dress. She called Wu Zuguang and said, "Hurry, let's get married."
Wu Zuguang was amused and cryed by her. He told Xin Fengxia not to make a "fake". He asked Mrs. Huang Miaozi to design a purple cheongsam and a gray velvet vest for Xin Fengxia. Wu Zuguang wore a blue suit and white shirt he brought back from Hong Kong. They held a fashionable cocktail party in the lobby of the European and American Alumni Association in Nanheyan, Beijing. Almost all celebrities in the literary and artistic circles attended their wedding. Guo Moruo hosted the wedding, Yang Hansheng is the man's host, Ouyang Yuqian is the woman's host, and Lao She is the introducer.
Zhou Enlai also wanted to attend their wedding, but he was unable to attend for some reasons. After they got married, they added a few tables of meals and invited them to have a meal with some literary and artistic colleagues to congratulate them.

In order to give Xin Fengxia a stable home who has lived in poverty since childhood, Wu Zuguang took out his savings and bought a courtyard house with eighteen rooms in Beijing. In the northern room of the Sihe Courtyard, he set up a study room for Xin Fengxia, and a small carved stone desk was installed under the window, and a mahogany bookshelves beside the wall. On the bookshelf are famous works of ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign, carefully selected by Wu Zuguang for Xin Fengxia.
Xin Fengxia is very satisfied with her being able to marry into this "cultural family full of books", and is even more satisfied with the study given to her by Wu Zuguang. During the performance, she always brought Wu Zuguang to her dictionary, and when she had time to check the dictionary, she learned to recognize words.
In the busy performance gap, Xin Fengxia only took a few years to complete the primary and junior high school courses, and wrote two articles published in the newspaper, which was recognized by literary masters such as Ye Shengtao .
Wu Zuguang moved his parents here to live with them.
Wu Zuguang's father Wu Jingzhou is an old cultural relic expert with excellent poetry, calligraphy and painting. He found that his daughter-in-law Xin Fengxia, who had never been to school, could actually draw. It turned out that Xin Fengxia made costumes with her adoptive mother since she was a child, often hand-painted patterns, and mastered some painting skills without a teacher. This made Wu Jingzhou very pleased. None of his children love painting. Unexpectedly, his daughter-in-law actually likes painting.
Wu Zuguang helped Xinfengxia learn culture after marriage, and Xinfengxia took good care of Wu Zuguang's life after marriage. When they looked at each other, their eyes were shining, and they both tasted the feeling of being respected and loved.
They hope that such days will last forever.

However, in a turbulent era, their lives are doomed to be unstable.
Xinfengxia was called to talk by leaders at all levels. They told her that she had a good background, good opera, and was young and beautiful. She was an actress who was focused on training in the organization. As long as she drew a clear line with her husband, it would not affect her future.
Xin Fengxia does not understand the changing political situation, but she has a simple concept - she heard and witnessed many cadres who use public welfare to help their own selfishness, harm their own selfishness, and try every means to get the public's advantage. Her husband Wu Zuguang donated more than 100 precious cultural relics from the family to the country, and mobilized Xin Fengxia to donate her carefully made costumes, head and several large theater boxes to the theater. How could such a selfless person be a bad person?
Xin Fengxia refused to divorce Wu Zuguang.
She said: "Wang Baochuan waited for Xue Pinggui waited for 18 years, and I waited for him for 28 years."
Because she refused to divorce her husband, Xin Fengxia was designated as a "rightist". She performed and worked hard. After singing the show every day, she had to go to the spittoon, sweep the toilet, and was insulted and abused.
A few years later, Wu Zuguang came back. Xin Fengxia and her children made the home look brand new, and also pasted the paper-cut with the words "Welcome". The whole family was in joy, as if they were celebrating the festival.
In this short and beautiful time, Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia collaborated on the Ping drama " Flowers for Media ". The drama was brought to the screen in 1963. Xin Fengxia played Zhang Wuke and Zhao Lirong played Ruan's mother, which caused a sensation after its release.
Good times have just been around for a few years, and the "ten years" has begun. Wu Zuguang's old account was revealed again, and Xin Fengxia was also unlucky, criticized and beaten, leaving permanent damage to the meniscus on her left knee. She was forced to leave the stage and engage in heavy physical labor, and for several years she was sent to dig an air raid shelter.
Xin Fengxia was only in her thirties when she left the stage, and was in the golden age of a drama actor. This is extremely distressing for Xin Fengxia, who loves the Pingju career, but no matter how difficult it is to deal with it, she does not regret marrying Wu Zuguang.
"Pingju is my life, Wu Zuguang is the soul that supports my life, I can't live both ways, I would rather want Zuguang."

Xin Fengxia, who is strong by nature, cannot accept this fact. She becomes irritable and loses her temper at home. She smashes the photos and some artworks of her performances in her early years. Wu Zuguang has to hide the remaining photos and artworks, and later hides the TV.
Xinfengxia was in pain, Wu Zuguang felt even more painful inside, and there was still guilt in his pain. Xin Fengxia suffered such suffering because of him, and she was implicated because of Wu Zuguang's wife.
Wu Zuguang was determined to cheer up Xin Fengxia. He set up a studio at home to encourage Xin Fengxia to practice painting.
Xin Fengxia is the goddaughter of Qi Baishi . She learned some drawing skills with the old man Baishi and her father-in-law Wu Jingzhou. With the encouragement of her husband, Xin Fengxia picked up her brush and started painting. When she was focusing on painting, she felt calm and no longer had a bad temper.
From then Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia formed a pair of painting partners. Xin Fengxia painted, Wu Zuguang wrote inscriptions, and all Xin Fengxia's paintings were collaborated with her husband.
Wu Zuguang encouraged Xin Fengxia to write. He said, "You write articles, just like you did when you learned culture and assignments, write whatever you think, and write wherever you think."
With Wu Zuguang's encouragement, Xin Fengxia picked up a pen and started writing about the people and things she experienced in her life. She would write at her desk every day like she was at work, and as soon as she had breakfast, she would write. As noon approached, she gave the finished article to Wu Zuguang to modify. With the help of Wu Zuguang, Xin Fengxia's articles became smoother and smoother. In the twenty years after hemiplegia, Xin Fengxia wrote four million words and published 27 books.
It is a miracle that a low-level artist who has come from the old era can achieve such achievements.
Xin Fengxia joined the Writers Association. She herself did not expect that one day, she would actually become a cultural person. She likes to sit in the study and read and write, which makes her feel more satisfied than gorgeous clothes and jewelry and diamond jewelry.
There was a smile on Xin Fengxia's face. She could no longer perform on stage and focused on cultivating new people. She sat in a wheelchair and showed the show to young actors, and watched them perform in a wheelchair. Under her guidance, a group of young actors became the mainstay of the Pingju stage.
Whenever there is a chance, Wu Zuguang will take Xin Fengxia out and let her see the scenery outside and relax. Up the steps and up the stairs, Wu Zuguang was afraid that Xin Fengxia would not be able to sit steadily on the wheel ride, so he personally carried the wheelchair, and was so tired that he was sweating heavily. Xin Fengxia gently wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.
The only conflict between Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia in his later years was that Wu Zuguang was honest by nature and liked to criticize bad phenomena. Xin Fengxia always stopped him. Yu Fengxia, who had been dating them for decades, said: "Zu Guang, she is always worried about you! She is afraid that you will talk nonsense on paper in front of others and cause trouble again."

Although she had enough of the crime with Wu Zuguang, Xin Fengxia never blamed her husband, so her children did not resent her father.
Although his family has suffered hardships, the family members are still warm and loving, and the family atmosphere is in a happy mood.
In Wu Zuguang's eyes, his wife Xin Fengxia is the most beautiful woman in the world and the greatest artist. After hemiplegia, Xin Fengxia was unable to move, had a bloated figure, and was not as handsome as she was when she was young. In Wu Zuguang's eyes, his wife was still as beautiful as before.
Wu Zuguang led the whole family to love Xinfengxia. He made a ringing ring after Xinfengxia was hemiplegic. He stipulated that as long as he heard the ringtone of Xinfengxia, the whole family must put down the work at hand and take care of Xinfengxia no matter what they are doing.
He often says to his children: "You must love your mother and always love her. Your lovely mothers are an unprecedented and unparalleled..."
After Xinfengxia passed away, he said to his children with pain: "You must love each other, don't be as guilty as I always feel that I can't repay her forever."
Xinfengxia died of a sudden illness in Changzhou .
Changzhou is Wu Zuguang's hometown. Xin Fengxia claims to be the "Changzhou wife", but she has never been able to go to her husband's hometown. When Xinfengxia was 71 years old, her wish finally came true, and she followed her husband to the land of Changzhou.
She was very excited, busy meeting with relatives in her hometown, busy painting and giving gifts. Because of fatigue and excitement, she caused a cerebral hemorrhage. She didn't have time to say goodbye to Wu Zuguang, so she was separated from Wu Zuguang forever.
He always felt that Xin Fengxia had not walked away, and she was still sitting at her small desk reading and painting. He waited for Xin Fengxia to push the door open, gave him the written manuscript to modify, and asked him to write the painted inscriptions.
Wu Zuguang's health deteriorated rapidly. He suffered from stroke and suffered from Alzheimer's disease. He remembered nothing except Xin Fengxia.
Five years after Xinfengxia passed away, Wu Zuguang also followed Xinfengxia.
The most beautiful love in the world is often breaking the convention, because breaking the convention requires courage.
The love between Xin Fengxia and Wu Zuguang is a breaking tradition. One comes from a famous family with a scholarly family, the other comes from the bottom of society, the other is knowledgeable, and the other is ignorant, but they can fall in love and come together.
Maybe this is not surprising. Many people will break through prejudices and passionate love because of passion, but they do not have the ability to "keep fresh" this love. After the shelf life, there will be a mess in the ground, and they will become enemies.
Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia not only love each other, but also "keep fresh" this love for decades until the end of their lives.
This is first attributed to Xin Fengxia. Xin Fengxia was born at the bottom of society and was mixed with the advocacy of the best, but she was noble and could not see the difference in temperament when she stood with Wu Zuguang.
Xin Fengxia, who was born at the bottom, has an ambitious heart. She envies the glory of the Books and strives to move closer to this goal. If Wu Zuguang doesn't take the initiative to pursue her, she will take the initiative to pursue Wu Zuguang. Because of Wu Zuguang, she was beaten, insulted, criticized, and deprived of her qualification to perform on stage, and she never regrets.
After experiencing the twists and turns of fate, she realized her original dream - she became a "cultural person" and was accepted by the literary circle. She sat in the study and wrote books and painted them, and became what she looked like in her dream.
Good love must be fulfilled by two people. The love between Wu Zuguang and Xin Fengxia is also fulfilled by both of them. In Wu Zuguang's heart, Xin Fengxia is always a shining goddess. He sympathizes with Xin Fengxia's suffering at the bottom of society, understands Xin Fengxia's cultural shortcomings, and never despise Xin Fengxia because of his good background and high cultural level.
He led the new Fengxia, developed the new Fengxia, expanded the new Fengxia, and gave the new Fengxia a wider width and deeper breadth of the life.
He made Xin Fengxia lose one possibility, but gain another possibility.
Neither of them lived up to the other. They nourished each other, inspired the best part of their lives, and became a model of love in the world.
