In that era of fire, the ** period was undoubtedly a period of abundant talents. Lu Xun's perseverance and Zhu Ziqing's deep affection have given us a deeper understanding of the literati's style.
In those slow years, looking for a confidant is particularly valuable. Among them, Zhu Xiang is such a talented person, who has written nearly 100 love letters for his crush with extreme romance.
He has taught at Tsinghua University in Beijing.
Zhu Xiang, a famous family from a scholarly family, his life should have been carefree, but he ended his life at a prime age, which is embarrassing.
Although he lost his mother at the age of three and his father at the age of 11, his talent for reading showed early.
The originally warm family collapsed in an instant, and the young Zhu Xiang began to face the difficulties of life alone. Unable to take care of himself, he had to take refuge with his cousin and live a life under the fence.
However, under the roof of others, he has experienced too much cynicism and vicious remarks, and his heart is full of gaps. He used to be a child who was held in the palm of his hand, but now, he had to bear the bitterness of life alone.
After experiencing that unforgettable moment, Zhu Xiang secretly decided to study hard and pursue a happy life with his own efforts. Finally, at the age of 17, he was admitted to Tsinghua University as he wished.
With the influence of his parents since he was a child and his profound literary accumulation, Zhu Xiang became famous on campus. During that fulfilling period of study, Zhu Xiang got acquainted with Sun Dayu, Yang Shien and Rao Mengkai, who had similar interests and soon became friends.
In terms of poetry creation and literary insights, they often make progress with each other.
Zhu Xiang achieved academic success at Tsinghua University and became acquainted with the great poet Wen Yiduo and the romantic and talented Xu Zhimo. However, he chose to leave this platform that many people dream of.
This may be because, sometimes, a person's abilities can only be fully demonstrated in a specific environment. Switching to another platform could have completely different results.
Zhu Xiang's experience at Tsinghua University was not without reason, he was deeply troubled by the morning class system, during which he was late for 27 times, and three times of absenteeism eventually led him to leave.
This departure incident caused a lot of shock in Tsinghua University, after all, Zhu Xiang is a rare talent. Tsinghua University's actions seem to tell us that no matter how talented we are, we can't ignore the rules.
After leaving Tsinghua University, Zhu Xiang traveled to Shanghai in search of development, where he met his wife. Even after leaving his familiar surroundings, he chose to look forward because he knew that there was still a long way to go.
Zhu Xiang, who has faced life alone since he was a child, has long learned to handle affairs independently.
Despite the challenges of life in Shanghai, the young man was not crushed. As fate would have it, he met his fiancée Liu Nijun again while wandering in Shanghai.
This marriage was arranged by both parents, and it was bound by the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Liu Nijun was born in a famous family and is a dignified and generous lady. When Zhu Xiang was studying at Tsinghua University, the two had a one-sided relationship, but because Zhu Xiang opposed the arranged marriage, the two parties broke up unhappily.
Liu Nijun then returned to her hometown, but after she returned to her hometown, her parents died of illness one after another, and she lost the protection of her parents, and Liu Nijun was soon forced to leave home and go to Shanghai to work.
Their fates are surprisingly similar, they both had glorious pasts, but those were distant memories. This chance encounter ignited the flame of love between them.
It may be the resonance of the same encounter that makes them hug each other tightly. Zhu Xiang, a talented poet, showed extraordinary talent when he was a student at Tsinghua University.
This time, he finally had the opportunity to show his talents, and he continued to write more than 90 love letters.
Zhu Xiang and the beauty lived a sweet life after getting married, supporting and helping each other. Soon after, Zhu Xiang was hired as the head of the Department of English Literature at Anhui University, and the two also had a stable economy.
However, Zhu Xiang did not cherish everything in front of him, and finally left Anhui University due to the school system and rules, while his husband also committed suicide in tears, and his wife cut her hair to become a nun.
Life is not only about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also firewood, rice, oil, salt and daily chores, but Zhu Xiang seems to be unable to fit in. After losing his job, he did not accept his wife's help.
Because there are still a few people in the family waiting to eat. Due to Zhu Xiang's pretentiousness, his wife's thin shoulders could not bear the burden of the family, and as a result, his three-year-old son starved to death.
This completely shattered the wife's last hope for life! However, Zhu Xiang only saw the manuscript of the poem on the desk. The wife is already desperate.
Love without a material foundation may not last, after all, if even the basic living security cannot be satisfied, how can we pursue and enjoy the future life?
After this experience, the two could no longer get along as before, Zhu Xiang was adrift, and his wife stayed in Shanghai to work to support the children. When he returned to Shanghai again, he found that his situation had not changed, and he did not cherish the lover he could accompany him, and he was still in trouble.
At this moment, Zhu Xiang deeply regretted it.
Perhaps it was an escape from reality, or perhaps a helplessness to life, Zhu Xiang chose to end his life at the age of 29. This news hit Liu Nijun hard, and the originally bumpy life was even worse.
For the sake of her children, she chose to cut her hair as a nun and stay away from the trivial things of the world. Perhaps the couple's life has chosen to escape and helplessness. In the end, although Zhu Xiang and his wife met again, they did not cherish it, and their immortal couple ended up in such a bleak end, it seems that they have already been arranged by fate.
It is inevitable to encounter wind and rain on the road of life, and it is not easy to meet a person who is willing to work with us, endure hardships together, and spend a lifetime together. When you are at a low point, don't give up easily, making a living is the king.
When life is a problem, only by facing it can we find the answer.
