WifeThe son hates, Mao Yisheng lives alone, and retribution comes.

Mao Yisheng was critically ill in 1989, and his children were not around before his death, and there was no one in front of the hospital bed. When he was dying, he couldn't help crying: "This is all my retribution!" ”

Mao Yisheng, the father of Chinese bridges, has been focusing on bridge construction for 30 years and never slacking off. He presided over the construction of the first modern large-scale bridge designed and built by the Chinese, the Qiantang River Bridge, which is a milestone in the history of China's railway bridges.

However, this master, who made great contributions to the country and the people, betrayed his marriage in his later years because of emotional problems, which led to the betrayal of his relatives and the bleak evening life. When he was critically ill, none of the six children he was thinking about were by his side.

Today, let's step into the little-known history of this master.

Mao Yisheng, a native of Zhenjiang, Jiangsu, founded the "Nanyang Official Daily" by his grandfather. He was smart and studious since he was a child, good at independent thinking, and when he was a child, in order to improve his memory, he often ran to the river to recite ancient poems, and the noise of the crowd did not affect him in the slightest, and he was completely immersed in his own world.

During the Dragon Boat Festival when he was 10 years old, there was a custom of dragon boat racing in his hometown, but he did not go to watch the race because Mao Yisheng had a stomach upset. Later, it was learned that due to too many people, the Wende Bridge was crushed, and many people were stoned and drowned.

This incident left a deep impression on his heart, and it also made him indissoluble bond with the bridge. From then on, as long as he saw the bridge, no matter how big or small, he had to look at it all over the place, and it would take him half a day to look at it.

This is where his determination comes from, and he is determined to build the strongest bridge possible, so as to prevent similar tragedies from happening again.

When he was 17 years old, his father set a marriage for him, and the woman Dai Chuanhui came from a scholarly family, and the two families have been friends for generations, and they are the right family, not only similar family backgrounds, but also family styles. The most important thing is that Dai Chuanhui is as beautiful as a flower and gentle and elegant.

In 1912, the two got married. Although it was an arranged marriage, after marriage, the relationship between the two was very sweet, and soon after, Dai Chuanhui became pregnant, and Mao Yisheng was always by her side to alleviate her pain.

After conceiving in October, the eldest son Mao Yuyue was born, but then there was separation, and soon after the child was born, Mao Yisheng went to study in the United States alone, leaving Dai Chuanhui to take care of the elderly and children.

Dai Chuanhui is a good wife and mother, who keeps the house in order, takes care of her in-laws, educates her children, and is responsible for a wife. In order not to worry Mao Yisheng, she always said in her letters that everything was fine at home and hoped that he would not worry.

Although the long-distance relationship is very difficult, their relationship is getting deeper and deeper, and they miss each other.

Mao Yisheng: The Perfect Balance Between Career and Family Despite the United States' efforts to keep him, Mao decided to return to his alma mater and serve his country. His decision not only shows his love for his country, but also his determination to persevere.

When he returned home, his son was already grown, but he still tried his best to make up for his past debts and stay with his wife and children. Although Dai Chuanhui needs to follow her husband around, she never complains, but is satisfied with such a life.

Their lives were full of sweetness and love, and they became a model couple in the eyes of people. Mao Yisheng's success is inseparable from the support of the women behind him, and his wife Dai Chuanhui not only takes on the heavy responsibilities of the family, but also serves as his secretary, allowing him to devote himself to his work.

Mao Yisheng's deeds tell us that career and family are not contradictory, but can be perfectly balanced.

Since 1933, Mao Yisheng began the construction of the Qiantang River Bridge. At this time, the Zhejiang-Jiangxi Railway was in full swing of construction, and in order to connect with the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway, a bridge must be built on the Qiantang River.

However, the geological conditions of the Qiantang River are complex, the water potential is treacherous, the tide rises and falls, the river surface often appears turbulent and turbulent, the bottom of the river is not bottomless, and the folk even have the proverb that "building a bridge on the Qiantang River - it can't be done".

However, Mao Yisheng rose to the challenge, and it was inevitable that he would win, and in order to overcome one technical problem after another, he worked day and night, often without even eating a bite of food, and had to devote himself to new work.

However, the construction process was not all smooth sailing. In 1937, the Battle of Songhu was in full swing, and Japanese planes often came to bomb it. Once, Mao Yisheng was discussing problems with several engineers and supervisors in the caisson of Pier 6, when suddenly all the lights in the caisson went out.

It turned out that due to the bombing of Japanese planes, all the electric lights were turned off at the construction site. In those days, looking at her husband's busy figure, there was nothing she could do but feel distressed, and in addition, she was worried about his safety all day long.

After long-term exertion and mental stress, Dai Chuanhui suffered from mild depression. Sometimes I didn't see Mao Yisheng for a while, so I couldn't sleep and eat, and then my mental state was very poor.

Mao Yisheng felt sorry for his wife, so he had to leave his wife in his hometown and let his children accompany him, while he rushed to Shanghai to work alone. It's just that this time, the husband and wife are like strangers, and at the same time, it also accelerates Dai Chuanhui's death.

In Shanghai, 50-year-old Mao Yisheng met 21-year-old Quan Guiyun, who was young and beautiful, with a gentle personality, just like his dream lover Dai Chuanhui when he was young. Quan Guiyun has admired Mao Yisheng's talent for a long time, and Mao Yisheng also felt the sweetness of love because of her appearance.

The two began to live together, and Kwon Guiyun also gave birth to a daughter for him. All this made Dai Chuanhui, who was thousands of miles away, completely unaware. However, the good times were short-lived.

With the "Loyalty and Honesty Movement" set off in China, Dai Chuanhui began to learn that Mao Yisheng still had a family outside. This shocked and saddened her. In 1950, everyone needed to explain their past, and Mao Yisheng confessed everything to his wife after weighing it again.

The core idea of the new copywriting is: love is beautiful, but it is also necessary to face reality and responsibility.

When Dai Chuanhui heard the truth from her husband, she froze there, not saying a word, her eyes filled with tears. In order to make up for the debt to his wife, Mao Yisheng returned to the family and cut off contact with Quan Guiyun, but he regularly mailed her living expenses every month.

Although she forgave her husband and didn't care about Quan Guiyun's existence, no one could confide in the bitterness and pain of the years, so her relationship with her husband became estranged, she bore all the grievances alone, and her depression became more and more serious.

After Mao Yuyue heard about this incident in Switzerland, his attitude towards his father became indifferent, because he had witnessed his mother's hard work in running the family since he was a child, but his feelings for his father were lacking.

As a son, he couldn't understand why his father would do such a thing. In 1968, Dai Chuanhui passed away, and went to a world that no longer made her miserable, which may also be a relief for her.

The children believed that the death of their mother was their father's fault, and Mao Yisheng's decision to bring Kwon Guiyun and his daughter with him caused a backlash from the children. Mao Yuyue even did not hesitate to cut off relations with his father and resolutely opposed bringing the outer room home.

Despite this, Mao Yisheng still insisted on taking Quan Guiyun's mother and daughter to his side. However, Kwon eventually died at the age of 50 due to long-term stress and depression, which was a heavy blow to Mao.

He regretted his impulsiveness, perhaps because of his advanced age, and he desperately wanted to reconcile with his children, but this wish never came true. In 1989, Mao Yisheng was critically ill, and only his youngest daughter Mao Yulin was by his side, and he longed for other children to come to see him before he died.

Mao Yulin couldn't bear to see his father so disappointed, so he wrote a letter of understanding to his father based on the notes and tone of his eldest brother Mao Yuyue. Listening to the content of the letter, Mao Yisheng showed a long-lost smile, and then passed away peacefully.

Tu Lei once said that it is easy to fall in love, but it is difficult to stay together; It's easy to stay together, but it's hard to believe; It is easy to believe, but it is difficult to understand. Mao Yisheng is a master in his career, but he is too egoistic in the world of feelings, causing two innocent women to fall into trouble.

Some people may say that Mao Yisheng's children are too harsh on him, but all this is just his original choice. The people are gone, and the question of emotions is not simply right and wrong.
