Qian Zhongshu and Yang Jiang Yang Jiang, she is also a Mr. Yang Jiang. Why? In modern society, Mr. seems to be the exclusive title of men, no matter what status and occupation, as long as it is a man, he will be called "Mr. So-and-so", which sounds normal and is very easy to say. However, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the title "sir" did not belong only to men. So, can women in the past also be called "sir"?
In fact, it is not all, only those women with outstanding talents or achievements are qualified to be called "sir", that is, female "sir", and Mr. Yang Jiang is one of them.
Yang Jiang is a well-known writer and translator in modern times, and many people may know Yang Jiang because she is Qian Zhongshu's wife, but in fact, Mr. Yang Jiang can be called "Mr." because of her own talent and many achievements in literature.
Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu met in the Tsinghua Garden in the spring of 1931, the two had a good impression of each other as soon as they met, and after a simple conversation, they found that they had no lovers with each other, so the two began their lifelong love journey. Of course, this is talking about a love journey, that is, even after they got married, there was no marital crisis, and their acquaintance and love became an enviable happy marriage.
Judging from the results, the lives of Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu make people have to admit that they are a natural pair, whether in knowledge or faith, they are both on the same road. In fact, it is not difficult to fall in love, but it is difficult to know and stay together.
After Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu got married, although they would quarrel over trivial matters in life, most of their family life was studied by the two of them, and what was even more rare was that they never competed for fame and fortune, nor did they have conflicts because of fame and fortune, and they were also very frugal in life.
As Mr. Yang Jiang himself said, she and Qian Zhongshu are both from the "Hansu family", and the education they received since childhood is "reading is high", although they may be poor all their lives, but they are very clear in their thoughts and souls.
It is precisely because Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu maintain a high degree of purity in their minds and souls that their love and marriage can be forever clear, and they always adhere to their original beliefs and beauty.
Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu had a daughter named Qian Yuan after marriage, and they hoped that her daughter would become a generous and beautiful woman in the future. After the birth of their daughter, they became a family of three, and under the management of their husband and wife, they lived happily.
Mr. Yang Jiang and Mr. Qian Zhongshu are both in the literary world, and their cooperation in their daughter's education is also impeccable. Of course, the achievements of her daughter Qian Yuan are also very remarkable, Qian Yuan once served as a doctoral supervisor in the Department of English Language at Beijing Normal University, which also inherited the literary blood of the two, especially Mr. Yang Jiang, as a famous translator, is of course very happy to see his daughter's achievements in English language research.
Mr. Yang Jiang wrote a lot of works in her life, but when someone asked her later what was the proudest work in her life, her answer was surprising, her proudest work was not any of her books, but her daughter and Qian Zhongshu's daughter, Qian Yuan.
Of course, Qian Yuan's achievements do make her proud, but Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu's infinite love for their daughter is also obvious. Daughter Qian Yuan works hard and is also very filial to her parents, so their family life has always been very happy.
However, not long after Qian Yuan served as a doctoral supervisor, she went to the hospital for an examination because of an unexpected low back pain, but the result was cancer, and it was a very rare spine cancer at that time. With the level of medical care at that time, there was almost nothing that could be done about Qian Yuan's illness, and soon after, the cancer cells had spread.
Originally, Qian Yuan wanted to hide it from her parents, she was very filial, and she didn't want her parents to see her suffering because of her illness, not to mention that her father Qian Zhongshu was also ill at that time, if her parents knew that she had cancer, it would aggravate her father's condition, so even if she found out later that she couldn't hide it, she resolutely refused to let her mother Yang Jiang come to the hospital to visit, because she was afraid that her mother would not be able to bear this fact.
