"Lao Zhang, do you say that in the past, , the wealthy families married so many concubines, but what happened in the end? ?"
Lao Zhang's wife has been following the news of a wealthy family in Hong Kong and Taiwan recently.
"There are legends in wealthy families, the stories are stories, and the stories are tears. Are there laughter and joy?"
Lao Zhang looked at his wife and was whimsical again, or he was sympathetic again.
For a moment, I sighed that it is better for New China, monogamy, and many animals in nature are also made of male and female. It is more worry-free and not tiring.
Lao Zhang did not stop what he was doing, and was still perfunctory about his wife.
"Hey, don't, let's discuss it. You said that there are so many concubines, and each of them is extremely capable."
Lao Zhang's wife stared at the entertainment page and insisted on discussing this topic.
Lao Zhang had no choice but to stop the work at hand and turned around: "I don't know the wealthy family you are following, I don't comment, but I know an absolutely top wealthy family story. Do you want to hear it?"
Lao Zhang's wife suddenly became interested when she heard this, put down her phone, showed her expectation, and waited for the following.
Lao Zhang: "..."
" I thought you would continue to watch your entertainment news, but it seems that you are not very concerned." Lao Zhang could only take it seriously: "Okay, you know the king of Northeast China Zhang Zuolin , right?"
"Today I will tell you the story of his fourth concubine, that is the best among women."
Lao Zhang's wife narrowed her eyes into a line, thinking about the weight of the three words "Big One".
Think of that year...
1888, in Hebei, , , an ordinary farmer's family, the Xu family, was born. Not to mention that she was born on the colorful auspicious clouds, because her family was so poor that she had no father at a very young age. This is a huge difficulty for a family.
No labor force, nor other brothers and sisters, this girl can only survive in a chaotic world with her mother.
My father gave her a nice name, Xu Shuyang. The name sounds nice. Shu, it is light rain, sunny, rain passes by and the sky is clear, , which means beautiful.
Since Xu Shuyang was born, her parents have deeply blessed her, hoping that this girl can have a happy life when she grows up, safe, auspicious and beautiful.
But the meaning is beautiful and cannot stop the cruelty of reality.
At the end of the 19th century, it was the era of warlord separatism. As the saying goes, ordinary people can save their lives in a turbulent era, and what better life is there.
The early death of his father made this family with only an orphan girl and a widowed mother even worse.
Xu Shuyang's mother is very strong. She must raise the child by herself and be worthy of her husband. In this way, they came to the Northeast where they were unfamiliar with their lives in the era of chaos.
Xu Shuyang's mother rented a small house, took her daughter, and found a job to do laundry and cook for wealthy families. I am looking forward to living a stable life from now on.
The little Xu Shuyang tied two pigtails, followed behind his mother one by one, running around, and playing around obediently when his mother was washing clothes, but she didn't leave too far.
In Xu Shuyang's childhood memory, in addition to the bumpy journey memories, it was the stream where her mother washed her clothes at the east end of the village. She kept it in her heart and never forgot it for many years.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
For a few small money, but that is the source of income that I rely on to support my daughter.
In my memory, my mother was so thin and tired, and she began to fetch water half a bucket and half a bucket, gritting her teeth and lifting the bucket up one by one.
Xu Shuyang felt sorry for his mother, and he helped her start washing some small clothes when he was old enough to work.
Although time is difficult, time is slowly flowing in difficulties. Xu Shuyang has also grown up and has become a beautiful girl.
1906, the weather was clear, and Xu Shuyang was holding a basin of clothes, which was no different from usual. Her eyes were simple and moving, just like her name, her whole body was wrapped in sunshine, warm and beautiful.
The same water beside the well, the same water was fetched. Xu Shuyang heard the sound of horse hooves from far to near, getting closer and closer. She couldn't help but be curious. She had never heard such a hurry sound of horse hooves.
Xu Shuyang looked at the entrance of the village curiously. It didn't matter when he saw it. He met someone who looked at her at the same time, his eyes were burning. They looked at each other and Xu Shuyang saw a man in military uniform riding a horse, facing the light, unable to see clearly.
But the person who looked at her was not an ordinary person.
Fate has changed from the glance of each other. And changes are coming towards Xu Shuyang at an unimaginable speed.
Xu Shuyang didn't take it to heart. Continue to wash her clothes.
Until two days later, an uninvited guest came to the house.
Only then did Xu Shuyang and his mother realize that the person they saw that day was a big man in the Northeast, a big man they would never be able to come into contact with in their entire lives, Zhang Zuolin.
Episode 0 Zhang Zuolin rode his horse on that day, and the sun was just right, and it was shining on a woman, as if there was a light shining on the woman. I don’t know if it was the rippling waves reflected from the water in the bucket, or if it was just a woman with a ray of light that attracted him, he just took a look at her at first sight.
How domineering Zhang Zuolin is? It is rare to be moved by a woman. Of course I took it home.
Xu Shuyang's mother was naturally afraid when she saw the soldier entering the house and thought that she had caused something. When she knew that her daughter was favored by others and wanted to marry her home as her concubine, or her fourth concubine, Xu's mother was of course very worried, for fear that her daughter would be bullied if she entered the house.
His mother's guidance has been in his childhood. Although Xu Shuyang was poor at home and had never been to school, he was not a jassie in his family, but also a good woman. I don’t expect my daughter to join a rich family in the future, but I find a young man from a poor family with a good family. As long as I treat my daughter well and don’t be angry, I can be considered worthy of her dead husband.
Who would have thought that a big pie fell under the sky of fate, and I still don’t know if I can swallow it.
Thinking of the situation Xu Shuyang may face in the future, the eldest lady and several concubines, her heart was a little unbearable. What to do, what else can I do? The daughter of a poor family does not deserve the right to marry independently.
Just like that, Xu Shuyang entered Dashuai's house and became his new wife.
This is really fate, fate, what can you say is good about?
This is no longer a top wealthy family, it is a wealthy family that combines military, political and business.
As soon as Xu Shuyang entered Grand Marshal's Mansion , facing Zhang Zuolin's wives, he found that he had no other advantages except youth.
The eldest lady is the mother of Zhang Xueliang , the head mistress in the old society, the legitimate wife, with a high position and a powerful position.
The second wife is a lady, and later I learned that she is called Yizhihua, with a charm and extraordinary temperament.
The third wife comes from an ordinary family, but she is beautiful and has a shallow smile, and she is also looking at her.
This is not better. After comparison, it is really a piece of grass. Xu Shuyang felt very melancholy. What should I do? She only has one mother.
First, we must survive, and then talk about the quality of life. Xu Shuyang silently started to work on his old career and began to wash clothes for his wives.
is really ridiculous. The fourth concubine in the mansion of the Grand Marshal was really helpless. Zhang Zuolin touched his little hand soaked in water and persuaded him several times to make Xu Shuyang realize that she didn't need to wash clothes for anyone anymore.
Xu Shuyang thought it simple, and did not want to be gossiped behind his back. He could only be diligent in daily life and serve the wife of the Grand Marshal and the men in the Grand Marshal's Mansion well.
After a long time, the eldest lady and the three concubines looked at her pure little white rabbit, without any threatening them, so they slowly let go and accepted her slowly, and got along well.
There is no opposition, there is no contradiction, and finally survived in the Marshal's Mansion.
is really not easy.
because of his hard work and not being spoiled, Xu Shuyang showed his simpleness on his way out of Liaobei, without getting angry or complaining. Compared with the other delicate wives, Zhang Zuolin actually fell in love with Xu Shuyang's excellent qualities and liked her more and more.
Xu Shuyang was not arrogant because of his favor. When he returned home, he suggested to Zhang Zuolin to be a student at school because she had never studied since childhood and felt regretful. Zhang Zuolin was pampering Xu Shuyang, but he didn't feel embarrassed, so he agreed.
Then, for the sake of face, the Grand Marshal herself had to take Xu Shuyang home and agreed to let her follow the children at home to study.
Xu Shuyang is already very content. She is still young. Although she has put a lot of effort into learning, she has gritted her teeth and persevered. She has read some ancient books and learned a lot of words.
Xu Shuyang is well aware of the importance of knowledge. After giving birth to four children, he is particularly strict in his education on the children and does not relax at all.
Xu Shuyang knew that there were many troubles in the family. He told several children since he was a child that he would rely on himself in the future. In the future, this family would listen to their elder brother Zhang Xueliang. No one can move his mind that shouldn't be moved.
This idea shows that Xu Shuyang is very responsible, and his children are also deeply in Xu Shuyang's teachings, and each has an extraordinary life.
Xu Shuyang has no choice in his own marriage. It is his children's turn to fight for their right to freedom of marriage for them.
Although the gentle eldest daughter Zhang Huaitong married her husband introduced by her family, she had a good relationship after marriage. The two of them had like-minded people, studied in the United States together and settled in the United States.
The proud eldest son Zhang Xuezeng , he was exposed to Western culture since childhood. When he grew up, he went to study in the UK and stayed in the UK to start a family and start a business.
The most beloved youngest daughter Zhang Huaixi watched her brother work and live in the UK, and also entered Cambridge and settled in the UK.
Only his youngest son Zhang Xuesi did not follow their ordinary path in a wealthy family. He participated in the Anti-Japanese War and became an excellent Communist Party member. He spent half his life fighting in bloody battles. In 1955, Zhang Xuesi was also awarded the title of Major General of the country.
Xu Shuyang was thinking about his youngest son. In 1949, he lived with his youngest son after returning to China. He died of illness in Beijing in 1978. He was the only wife of Zhang Zuolin who was buried in the Babaoshan Cemetery in Beijing.
This is the life of Xu Shuyang a legendary woman.
As long as the mind is not simple, women are not as simple as that.
