How romantic is Chiang? The female secretary revealed the truth, how did Song Meiling deal with it?
I'm a person. ”
In the marriage of Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling, it is surprising that Chiang Kai-shek did not change his amorous personality because of his marriage to Soong Meiling, and even became interested in personal secretaries.
This is not groundless, but he himself admitted it in his old age. Who is this personal secretary? How did Song Meiling respond to this? How many women did Chiang Kai-shek have in his life?
For his marriage to his original wife Mao Fumei, Jiang's mother Wang Caiyu seems to have played an important role.
Mao Fumei, Wang Caiyu and Chiang Kai-shek suffered serious family changes in 1895, and the death of their father, Chiang Zhaocong, caused the family to fall from the local average to a low level.
The only income in the family**, the salt shop, has also become the focus of the family elders to force Wang Caiyu to hand over. Faced with the pressure of life, Chiang Kai-shek took the initiative to take on the responsibility of the family, but the crying of his mother Wang Caiyu and the stern gaze of the clan elders made him feel helpless and helpless.
Although Zhao Cong has passed away, how can you and your child Zhongzheng take care of the business of the shop? Why don't we run it and ensure that your mother and son have no worries about their lives.
Although Wang Caiyu was moved, he resolutely refused to give up control of the salt shop. She knows that if she loses control of the salt shop, she will be at the mercy of others, and in the end she can only end up unhappy.
It is precisely because of Wang Caiyu's persistence that the stability of the Jiang family is guaranteed. The mother and son of the Jiang family depend on each other, deeply understand each other's contributions, and keep filial piety in mind. However, they may not have expected that this choice would sow the bitter fruit of their first marriage.
In 1901, when Chiang Kai-shek was in his early 14s and came home from school, a group of adults and an older girl came to the house. Chiang Kai-shek looked at his mother in confusion, while Wang Caiyu smiled and told his son: "This is Mao Fumei, the youngest daughter of the Mao family, she is 19 years old, and it will be very suitable for you to marry." ”
In fact, in the folk of the Qing Dynasty, there was a phenomenon of early marriage of "men and women". Therefore, Chiang's mother, Wang Caiyu, began to prepare for Chiang Kai-shek's marriage early.
After she couldn't marry her aunt Jiang Saifeng's daughter, she fell in love with the Mao family, who also had a good family background.
The Mao family and the Jiang family were two of the most wealthy families in the Fenghua area, the Mao family was known for their business for generations, and the Jiang family became a prominent local family because of the achievements of their ancestors.
However, over time, the influence of the Mao family gradually waned, while the Jiang family continued to develop. Although Mao Fumei, the daughter of the Mao family, has not received education in new ideas, she is favored by many families for her dignified and virtuous and knowledgeable knowledge.
Under the arrangement of Wang Caiyu and Mao Dinghe, the two families decided to let their children get married. However, they did not take into account the wishes of the children.
Jiang Maofumei is a traditional female representative, and she firmly believes that the marriage of children should be decided by the parents, and although she is a little afraid and withdrawn, she does not dispute this idea.
Chiang Kai-shek, however, had a very different view. He received a private school education since he was a child, and has a deep understanding and yearning for a new culture, pursuing free and equal love and marriage.
What's more, he hopes to achieve success in his career first before thinking about getting married and having children. "Mom, I'm still young, I can wait for the marriage. When I have achieved something, a good woman will naturally become your daughter-in-law. ”
I'm almost in the ground, and I'm just worried that you have no one to take care of you. The Mao family is the in-laws I believe in my heart, and if you go against my will, you will be unfilial to me. ”
Hearing his mother's tearful cry, Chiang Kai-shek could only reluctantly agree. However, can this marriage, which is united by "the words of the matchmaker and the order of the parents", really be happy and long-lasting?
Chiang Ching-kuo and Mao Fumei's marriage had a short sweet period, they often walked together and talked heart-to-heart, but as Chiang Ching-kuo gradually matured, he began to be dissatisfied with Mao Fumei, and even started beating and scolding.
Coupled with Jiang's mother's intervention, their marriage became inseparable. Mao Fumei has always adhered to the belief of "marrying a chicken and marrying a dog and marrying a dog", and tried her best to maintain family harmony, but it eventually broke down because Chiang Ching-kuo left home for further study.
Chiang Ching-kuo's two extramarital affairs also failed to come to an end. The tragedy of this marriage tells us that love and marriage are not always smooth sailing.
Chairman Chiang, in early 1908, in order to pursue the craze of studying abroad, he resolutely went to Dongying to study. Over the course of three years, he tapped into his military potential and made many like-minded friends, including Chen Qimei, a veteran of the Alliance.
When the Xinhai Revolution broke out in 1911, Chen Qimei invited him to participate in the revolutionary cause. Under his guidance, he participated in the Hangzhou Liberation War, and was promoted all the way to the commander of the Fifth Regiment of the Shanghai Army, and was stationed in Shanghai.
Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling got rid of their mother's shackles and began a free and unfettered life, often going out to play with their colleagues. During an outing, he walked into a brothel and met a woman named Yao Aqiao.
Yao Aqiao has a beautiful appearance, a graceful posture, and his eyes are flowing, which makes him intoxicated. Because they were of the same age, they quickly entered into an in-depth conversation, and Yao Aqiao's tragic experience made Chiang Kai-shek feel deep pity.
I will help you get out of the sea of suffering, take you out of here, let you live a stable life, and I will definitely be responsible for you. ”
Image source network Chiang Kai-shek's sincere confession touched Yao Aqiao, and she burst into tears. Soon after, he fulfilled his promise, spent a lot of money to redeem Yao Aqiao, and renamed her "Yao Yecheng", which means a new chapter in life and getting rid of the past.
During their time in Shanghai, Chiang Kai-shek and Yao Yecheng were called "husband and wife" and often attended various gatherings. However, no matter how much he hides it, it cannot change the fact that he is "married".
On this day, Chiang Kai-shek confessed to Yao Yecheng and decided to return to his hometown in Xikou together. He said to Jiang's mother Wang Caiyu: "I want to marry Yecheng as my wife, she is the woman I really love!" ”
Mao Fumei, as Jiang Jingguo's mother, is the daughter-in-law unanimously recognized by the Jiang family. Although Chiang Kai-shek tried to win her to become a concubine, Chiang's mother, Wang Caiyu, resolutely refused, and only offered to let Mao Fumei enter the house, but not to be a concubine.
Although Chiang Kai-shek's status was higher than Yao Yecheng's, Yao Yecheng chose to respect Mao Fumei and the rest of the Chiang family for the sake of his future life. Despite her preference for Chiang Kai-shek, she proceeded cautiously.
The relationship between Yao Yecheng and Jiang Weiguo began when Jiang Weiguo was 4 years old when he was sent to her to recognize his "mother", and they had a deep mother-son relationship. Although Yao Yecheng never had any biological children of her own, she always loved Chiang Kai-shek deeply.
However, she was disappointed when she found Chiang Kai-shek looking for a new love outside. In 1913, Chiang Kai-shek followed Sun Yat-sen, although they were the relationship between leaders and subordinates, but because Chiang had many outstanding points, he was deeply appreciated by Sun Yat-sen, and his future was immeasurable.
However, because he has been running for his career, he and Yao Yecheng have gathered less and separated more, and the relationship between the two has gradually drifted apart.
One night in 1919, Chiang Kai-shek met Chen Jieru, who was only 13 years old, at the home of his friend Zhang Jingjiang.
Chen Jieru was born in a wealthy family, received a good education since childhood, and spoke and behaved like a mature woman, which made people can't help but be attracted by her elegant and calm temperament. On the contrary, Chiang Kai-shek was already tired of his wife Mao Fumei's ignorance and Yao Yecheng's gambling life, and his love for Chen Jieru was growing day by day.
Due to the age gap, Chen Jieru hesitated about Chiang Kai-shek's intentions, and his father was even more resolute against it. However, Chiang Kai-shek's love for Chen Jieru did not change, and he continued to pursue it, insisting on contact even when he was rejected.
In the end, after Chen Jieru's father died, he gained the recognition of the Chen family through his friend Zhang Jingjiang.
In 1921, Chiang Kai-shek and Chen Jieru joined hands in Shanghai to enter the palace of marriage. Soon after, he successfully rescued Sun Yat-sen and his wife on the Yongfeng ship, thus gaining their trust and reuse, and became the principal of the Whampoa Military Academy.
Chen Jieru, a famous lady, is not good at scheming, and gets along well with Mao Fumei and Yao Yecheng. Although she did not give birth to children, she regarded Jiang Jingguo and Jiang Weiguo as her own, and through He Xiangning's help, she adopted a daughter "Yaoguang".
In the past six years, Chen Jieru and Chiang Kai-shek have been inseparable and have become the envy of others. They loved each other deeply, witnessed the steady development of Chiang Kai-shek's career, and went from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, becoming an indispensable member of the Kuomintang.
Throughout Chiang Kai-shek's political career, he did not hesitate to abandon his wife, Chen Jieru, who had been with him for many years, in pursuit of higher political goals. He was obsessed with the power and status of the Song family, hoping to use the power of the Song family to improve his status.
The Song family had a huge influence in business and politics, especially the family leader Song Jiashu, who had a deep friendship with Sun Yat-sen, the father of the country. Therefore, Chiang Kai-shek regarded the Soong family as an important ally, and he was willing to pay any price to realize his political ambitions.
In 1917, Song Jiashu's youngest daughter Song Meiling returned from studying abroad and was invited by her brother Song Ziwen to attend a ball, and fell in love with Chiang Kai-shek, who was wearing a military uniform and heroic posture.
They confide in each other and fall into a passionate relationship. However, the threshold of the Song family is not easy to cross, especially after Song Jiashu, the father of Song, learned that Chiang Kai-shek had the will to marry Song Meiling, and put forward a difficult request: My family has ancestral training, monogamy, you already have a family, if you can't break it off, don't continue to bother Meiling.
Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling reached a consensus, and he promised: "Please rest assured uncle, I will take care of everything properly, and I will only have Soong Meiling for the rest of my life." Soon after, Shanghai newspapers reported that Chiang Kai-shek had severed ties with his wife Mao Fumei, and he hurried home to sever ties with Mao Fumei, Yao Yecheng, Chen Jieru and others.
The two concubines had long known that he had a new wife, so they gladly accepted his terms and left gracefully. However, Mao Fumei, a traditional woman, believes that divorce is like a death sentence and firmly disagrees.
But since Jiang's mother, Wang Caiyu, had died, no one could stop his decision.
The marriage between Mao Fumei and Jiang Jingguo ended in the way of "divorce without leaving home", and Mao Fumei spent his old age in the old mansion of the Jiang family. Chiang Ching-kuo married Soong Meiling in 1927, and the relationship between the two was mixed with political factors, and he gained a solid position in the Kuomintang through the status of Sun Yat-sen's sister-in-law.
Especially after the death of Sun Yat-sen, he officially became the ruler of the Kuomintang.
The relationship between Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Meiling has always been praised by people, and the way they get along is like the harmony and unity of ** and melody. However, as Chiang Kai-shek's power grew stronger, he could not resist the ** of beauty.
In 1946, Soong Meiling went out to form an army, and Chiang Kai-shek was alone at home when he received an invitation from Chen Lifu to go to a small gathering. Chen Lifu's niece, Chen Ying, was busy at home, and her graceful figure intoxicated Chiang Kai-shek.
Chen Lifu's status had declined due to his fall from grace, and when he saw that Chiang Kai-shek had a good impression of Chen Ying, he took the initiative to match them, saying that Chen Ying had just returned from the United States and was an excellent English secretary, which was just right for Chiang Kai-shek's needs.
Chiang Kai-shek was very satisfied with Chen Lifu's arrangement, and he wrote the word "Ying" on the table. After the banquet, he took Chen Ying home, ostensibly her personal secretary, but in fact something improper happened.
Although Chiang Kai-shek was very cautious, his actions were keenly detected by Soong Meiling. However, when Song Meiling thought about how to deal with this problem, she was very confused.
Luckily, Song Oi Ling has a lot of experience and convinces her to take a smart approach to this problem.
On this day, Chiang Kai-shek was not at home, and Song Meiling found Chen Ying. She said to Chen Ying: "I know what happened to you, you are young and beautiful, but you were sent around as an item, and you wasted your good years on an old man, it's really not worth it."
If you will, I will help you out of the sea of suffering. Chen Ying was grateful, she said: "I was forcibly brought here by my uncle and begged Sister Song to help me get out of here." ”
At the end of her life, Song Meiling gave $500,000 to Chen Ying, hoping that she could stay away from the chaos here and go to the United States to find a new life. However, the return of Chiang Kai-shek complicated everything.
He couldn't accept Chen Ying's departure, but he couldn't face his relationship with her, so he could only choose to remain silent. The romantic story in this marriage has become an indelible scar in their hearts.
Before Soong Meiling died in the United States, she left a will, hoping to be buried with her sister Soong Ailing instead of Chiang Kai-shek. Behind this is disappointment and dissatisfaction with Chiang Kai-shek.
Perhaps, there is nothing wrong with human desires, but like Chiang Kai-shek, betraying others again and again and indulging in beauty, he is doomed to failure.
