The "Wenqu Star" that came to the world
In the autumn of 1979, in the cold wind in the mountains of Hunan, a baby girl was born, and her parents named her Zhang Peixiang.
The emergence of a new life did not bring much joy to the family, as the family was already facing great difficulties, the father was weak and sick, and had been dependent on medicine to keep him alive, while the mother was suffering from polio and was paralyzed in her right hand.
In this family, no one can be assembled into a complete workforce, and it can be said that every day is a challenge to survive.
Fortunately, there is still a huge piece of land hidden in Zhang Peixiang's home, which is the only hope for their family to survive.
Ever since Zhang Peixiang remembered this incident, his mother often went out early and returned late, busy with farm work in the fields. And his father, because of his weak health, often lies in bed and moans, although he wants to do something for the family, he is always helpless.
When Zhang Peixiang was only five years old, the family ushered in a new little brother, she became more sensible, took the initiative to take on the responsibility of taking care of her younger brother, and did some housework as much as she could.
When Zhang Peixiang was a little older, he would follow his mother to work in place of his father, who was seriously ill.
In Zhang Peixiang's childhood memories, there are two things that he will never forget: working in the fields and selling rice.
While the other children were immersed in the joyful game, Zhang Peixiang had mastered a variety of agricultural skills such as weeding, sowing, fertilizing and harvesting. Although these skills may seem monotonous and tiring, she has no other options.
In addition to this, after harvesting the rice, Zhang Peixiang plans to follow his mother to the market four to five kilometers away to sell it.
The weight of each bag of rice weighed the mother and daughter so much that they could barely walk, but they still trembled to sell it.
Although the young Zhang Peixiang had blood stains on her shoulders, she did not refuse, because she knew that the burden on her mother's shoulders was heavier.
Zhang Peixiang's childhood was spent in constant travel with her mother, from the time she was a child, she had formed a mature way of thinking, she wanted to seek change, and going to school allowed her to find the answer to change.
However, due to her family's financial difficulties, Zhang Peixiang's academic journey will face many challenges, and she will have to face more trials before she can become a talented woman at Peking University.
A gifted girl.
As she grew older, Zhang Peixiang entered school to study, and her intuition told her that the way to change her destiny was hidden in this book.
As a result, Zhang Peixiang became the most diligent and intelligent student in the class, she took everything the teacher taught by heart to heart, and as long as there was an exam, Zhang Peixiang was definitely the best student.
For her, this is not too difficult. In order to constantly surpass herself, Zhang Peixiang began to memorize the entire book after the release of the textbook, and in less than a month, she was able to memorize it.
Because of his outstanding talent and dedication to learning, Zhang Peixiang has attracted the attention of many teachers and principals, and is regarded as a key student.
However, such glory days did not last long, and when Zhang Peixiang was only 10 years old, she faced her first academic challenge.
That day, when Zhang Peixiang returned home, he found that everyone in the family was in a heavy mood. Zhang Peixiang didn't know what was going on, so he asked why. At this time, his father said sadly: "Son, your brother is also of school age, otherwise, you had better not go to school first."
Zhang Peixiang was completely shocked, although she didn't want to let go, she didn't dare to refute her father, so she had to bow her head and wipe the tears from her eyes.
In a state of great grief and despair, she began to plead earnestly that she could do more work and go to school when she was done.
Despite this, the father took a deep breath and did not make his position clear again.
Of course, the parents didn't want to do this if the conditions permitted, but the cruelty of reality was here, and the whole family hugged each other tightly and burst into tears.
Since then, the school has lost a child who excels academically and morally, replaced by a young boy wielding a hoe in the field.
However, how can such a child, who is widely regarded as a genius, suddenly drop out of school, but not attract people's attention?Soon, the people of the entire small mountain village learned the news, and Zhang Peixiang's aunt also found him angrily.
As the aunt asked, the whole family explained the situation in detail, not that they were unwilling to accept it, but that they really couldn't afford it, and it was difficult to swallow even basic food.
The aunt understands their family's financial woes, but she doesn't want such a gifted niece to be affected. Therefore, she decided to take Zhang Peixiang into her home and let her niece go to school.
When Zhang Peixiang learned the news, she was extremely excited and quickly began to organize her school bag. Before leaving, her father took her into the room alone and apologized to his daughter with tears in his eyes, saying that the father was powerless.
Zhang Peixiang understood this, she did not blame her father, but her determination to change her fate became stronger.
Thanks to his aunt's financial support, Zhang Peixiang returned to school, and after completing primary school, he successfully entered Liling No. 1 Middle School, the top school in the area.
Although the tuition fee of Liling No. 1 Middle School is expensive, after completing the first year of junior high school, Zhang Peixiang chose to return to his hometown in order not to become a burden to his aunt, and found a junior high school with more affordable tuition fees to continue his studies.
When the family learned of the incident, they firmly objected and began to look for a solution.
Fortunately, Zhang Peixiang's fourth uncle took up a teaching position at Liling No. 1 Middle School, and he also began to provide financial support for Zhang Peixiang.
Thanks to the strength of the whole family and the support of the villagers, Zhang Peixiang successfully completed his junior high school studies.
In junior high school, Zhang Peixiang always maintained the excellent performance of the first grade, so he was highly praised by teachers and principals, who all believed that he had a great chance of entering a key high school.
However, at this moment, Zhang Peixiang has already made her own plans for the future, she hopes to apply for a vocational school and master a new skill, so that she can earn money faster, thereby reducing the financial pressure on her family.
In the process of thinking about this, she also took the same action, but fortunately, Luo Ding, the principal of Liling No. 1 Middle School, rescued her.
Luo Dingzhong was puzzled to find out that the first student in his grade had chosen a secondary school as his volunteer, so he decided to go to her in person.
Zhang Peixiang confessed his family's financial plight to Luo Dingzhong and expressed his views. Of course, Luo Dingzhong will not tolerate such a young man with potential being ignored, he asked Zhang Peixiang to take the exam with peace of mind, once he succeeds, he will have no worries.
As expected, Zhang Peixiang once again was eye-catching, with a close to full score in the high school entrance examination, and major key high schools also extended friendly olive branches to him.
Luo Dingzhong did not break his promise, he solved the tuition problem for Zhang Peixiang and provided her with a daily expense.
Clearly, the trajectory of Zhang Peixiang's life has quietly changed in her learning journey, and it is because of her excellence that she has been able to meet Bole again and again and receive their full support.
Zhang Peixiang also experienced many difficulties during his high school years. By the time he reached his sophomore year of high school, his father underwent surgery** and his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. This puts Zhang Peixiang's family, who are already living in difficult circumstances, at risk of family collapse.
Therefore, Zhang Peixiang decided to leave school quietly and go to Shenzhen to look for job opportunities, but fortunately, Luo Dingzhong saved her again.
After learning of this situation, Luo Dingzhong tried to find Zhang Peixiang many times. After countless times of ** communication, he finally found Zhang Peixiang and urged him to return to school as soon as possible, believing that he would help solve all the problems.
Therefore, Zhang Peixiang walked into the school again and embarked on his academic path.
After three years of high school life, Zhang Peixiang is halfway through school, but she still offers a shocking answer to her family and friends. As the top student of Zhuzhou liberal arts, she was admitted to the law department of Peking University.
From this moment on, Zhang Peixiang finally tasted sweetness after going through all kinds of hardships, and her life will become more colorful.
In 2001, Zhang Peixiang successfully completed her studies at Peking University, but despite this, her ingenuity allowed her to continue her graduate studies at Peking University, and she chose to continue her studies with Qu Sanqiang.
From this moment on, Zhang Peixiang decided to make her name known overseas because she had a very outstanding talent, and that was writing.
This person who has experienced many ups and downs has a soft spot for Dream of Red Mansions. After reading it many times, Zhang Peixiang chose "Flying Flowers in the Sky" as his pen name and continued to create.
With the passage of time, many works such as "The Great Tale of the Red Chamber", "The Collection of Flying Flowers Reading the Red Mansion" and "The Ten Days of the Red Mansion" have been published one after another, and have won universal praise from the audience.
However, this is not the limit of her creation. In 2003, Zhang Peixiang created ** "Selling Rice" based on her personal experience. This ** has been included in many ** and ** because of its outstanding performance, and at the same time, Zhang Peixiang's story has gradually become known to more people, thus winning the reputation of "Peking University Talented Woman".
This made Zhang Peixiang's family very proud, and when he had an income, he placed more emphasis on giving back to those who supported him, working to improve the family environment, and sponsoring his younger brother to continue his education.
Everything seems so beautiful, Zhang Peixiang's glory has just begun, and she still has endless possibilities.
However, fate seems to have played a joke on her.
Departed gloomily. When it comes to 2003, SARS was undoubtedly the most feared disease, and everyone felt that they were in danger, and at this critical moment, Zhang Peixiang's health changed unusually.
In order not to implicate the people around him, Zhang Peixiang went to the hospital for a check-up. But surprisingly, he was diagnosed with leukemia and had missed the best opportunity.
When Zhang Peixiang learned the news, her heart became very calm, and she shared it with her family, friends, teachers and classmates to prepare for the upcoming goodbye.
There was an influx of people related to her, and even the publishers she had worked with before expressed their willingness to provide her with ** funding.
However, Zhang Peixiang chose to refuse, she understood that it would no longer help, and it did not seem like a waste of money.
On the night of August 27, 2003, Zhang Peixiang passed away peacefully at the age of 24.
Everyone was deeply saddened and mourned her passing, especially the teachers and students of Peking University, who held a grand memorial service for this purpose.
Half of Zhang's ashes were transported back to her hometown and buried in the mountains. Despite her father's poor health, he was determined to build a pavilion for his daughter and failed to properly care for her during his lifetime. After his death, he vowed to protect his daughter from the wind and rain no matter what.
Zhang Peixiang's remains, at the request of Peking University, were specially buried in the public cemetery in Babaoshan.
At the funeral, Sa Beining recited "Where is the show girl in the family now?" with a heavy heartSigh the long dragon tears flowed freely. Such a eulogy. ”
Today, 20 years have passed, and every time people recall the legend of this talented woman of Peking University, they can't help but shed tears.
