Once Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu had a whimsical chat:

"I'll give you a magic weapon of the immortal family. What do you want?"

as a result, both of them need invisibility cloaks.

why do you want an invisibility cloak? Because the world is not simple at all, and it is not only not simple, but also too complicated.

You are meant to be an honest man. People bully you and use you. You are a little tactful, and people say that you are versatile. You are a little talented and there are a lot of people who are jealous of you.

in a word, sometimes you give in generously, others push your luck, and you want to be at peace with the world? That's easy, too. You should not only be strong inside, but also have enough strength to make people afraid to fight with you.

But if you have an invisibility cloak, others will not see you and will not bother you, so you can do whatever you want. Of course, you can't do evil.

Many years later, Mr. Yang Jiang turned 1 years old. By this time, she was too strong inside to need an invisibility cloak.

On the centenary speech, she said: We were so eager for the waves of fate, and finally we found that the most beautiful scenery in life was actually inner calmness and calmness; We were so eager for recognition from the outside world that we finally realized that the world was our own and had nothing to do with others.

most of the talented women in the Republic of China have distinguished families.

Zhang Ailing, for example, is a wealthy family and has a close relationship with Li Hongzhang, a powerful figure in the Qing Dynasty. Another example is Lin Huiyin. If the Lins were not rich, Lin Huiyin could not travel around the world with his father at an early age.

So is Yang Jiang. Although the Yang family is not a wealthy businessman, it is a real scholarly family. Don't underestimate the role of scholarly writing. Without the influence of scholarly writing, talented women can't become talented women.

Yang Jiang's father, Yang Yinhang, graduated from Waseda University in Japan, and then studied at the University of Pennsylvania in the United States. His master's thesis was included in the law series of the university.

When Yang Jiang was born, his father was already a famous lawyer at that time.

Mr. and Mrs. Yang Yinhang like reading. In addition to reading, Yang Yinhang also writes. His books "Ming Xue" and "Logic" have been handed down from generation to generation, which is the real top stream in the cultural circle.

My mother is also a lady who knows books and is courteous. She is gentle and elegant, and she is steady in everything and never impatient.

In 1911, the Yang Yinhang family still lived in a rented courtyard in Beijing, where Yang Jiang was born.

When she was born, both her father and mother loved her very much, especially her father, who regarded Yang Jiang as a treasure.

People in troubled times are drifting everywhere, and Yang Jiang is growing up. At the age of six, I began to go to primary school and became a restless pupil in the school.

Sometimes she is naughty. She blows a little fluffy ball in class and laughs on her own. When the teacher noticed the movement, she was also angry. She asked her to stand up and answer questions, trying to give her some color to see see, but Yang Jiang answered the questions accurately.

When Yang Jiang was eight years old, he followed his father back to his hometown of Wuxi.

Jiangnan is a poetic place. Time and people are gradually passing away in the courtyard with white walls and tiles. In Yang Yinhang's mind, men and women are equal, and all children, both men and women, should receive the best education. He always thinks that Shanghai Qiming Girls' School is the best in teaching quality, and he wants Yang Jiang to go there to study.

But at that time, Yang Jiang was actually only over eight years old. He wanted his daughter to receive the best education, but he felt sorry for her. To go to school, he had to leave home and live on campus.

So let Yang Jiang choose.

A Ji (Yang Jiang) is young, but she understands her father's thoughts, so she is going.

On that day, her mother asked her, "Have you made up your mind?"

She said, "I've made up my mind."

Despite this, tears still came out, and she knew in her heart that she could only come back in the summer vacation.

Birds flock together, eagles fly high, and all the distant places can only go by themselves.

At the age when it is easiest to learn well and learn badly, A Ji is lucky, because her father is an open-minded person. Instead of binding her with traditional things, he taught her to choose freely and take responsibility for her life.

Yang Yinhang is a person who will be strict with himself. He wants a "good man" he wants to be, and he is firmly opposed to a life with a high standard of living and a humble personality.

Once, he took Sister Aji to a friend's house. On the way back, Sister Aji was still lamenting the luxurious style of the family's life. When Yang Yinhang heard this, he replied faintly: "The living standard should not be too high."

With such a father, smart A Ji can naturally learn a lot and know a lot of truth.

And the father, for this clever and clever daughter, always needs more love.

After a lunch, everyone dispersed separately, and my father stopped Aji: "Actually, I like company, just don't make any noise". Since then, A Ji has become the child who can stay with his father for lunch break. When his father is resting, she reads quietly. Sometimes when his father writes, A Ji watches, and then picks up his father's brush to practice calligraphy.

As time goes by, people grow up day by day. Under the influence of his father, Yang Jiang likes reading more and more.

Later, when father and daughter were chatting, her father asked her, "Ji, how about not letting you read for three days?"

Yang Jiang replied without hesitation, "It's hard."

"You won't be allowed to read for a week?"

"A week has been wasted."

After listening to her daughter's answer, Yang Yinhang smiled and said, "Me too."

At the age of sixteen, Yang Jiang entered Zhenhua Girls' School to attend middle school.

It was a time of smoke, and even the school became another battlefield. Born in such an environment, Ah Ji would naturally be affected.

On one occasion, A Ji was elected as a student representative and needed to give a speech in the street, calling on people to carry out the revolution. However, she didn't want to take part in this activity, and the school also stipulated that as long as the family didn't agree, she could not take part.

After returning home, Yang Jiang hoped that her father would come forward and say that she didn't agree to go, so she didn't have to go.

but Yang Yinhang refused.

He said, "If you don't want to, don't go. You don't need to borrow dad to block it."

She is still worried: "No, the minority must obey the majority."

Yang Yinhang went on to say seriously: "Obey those who should obey; You have a point, or you can say. It's up to you whether you go or not. " To this end, he told his own experience and said to Ah Ji, "Do you know a sentence that Lincoln said? Dare to say no！ Dare you? "

she said, "dare".

The next day, after arriving at school, Yang Jiang spoke her mind directly: "I don't agree, I won't go."

her father taught her not only to listen to the guidance of her heart, but also to face difficulties with courage.

In high school, Yang Jiang couldn't tell the level off. Her father didn't talk about her, but comforted her, saying that it doesn't matter, it will happen when the time comes, and it will come naturally. After a while, Yang Jiang will.

Sometimes when Yang Jiang is studying, her father will deliberately go to the porch, stand outside the window and test her, pointing to a word and read it to her. If she reads it correctly, her father laughs. If she reads it wrongly, her father laughs.

Yang Jiang likes reading, and Yang Yinhang often buys some books for Yang Jiang. After buying them, she personally puts them on Yang Jiang's desk. If she doesn't read them for a long time, the books will disappear. Once she finds that the books are gone, she will know what's going on. Although her father doesn't say anything, Yang Jiang has learned to read by herself, and she never talks nonsense about her love or promises to read any books. She will do what she says.

if you read more books, your mind will naturally be calmer. In high school, the Chinese teacher finished the poem and asked the students to write poems.

Yang Jiangzuo:

"The world is all for profit, and the disturbance is like competing for the deer. "I'm safe to roam here, but I'm free from vulgarity."

The teacher criticized "Fairchild is so quiet."

The world is bustling, and most people benefit from it. Only when they are not bound by fame and fortune can they be truly free.

When choosing a major in college, the teacher thought that Yang Jiang was suitable for science, but she actually liked literature in her heart.

She asked her father, "What should I study?"

Father said, "Nothing should be done. You should learn what you like best."

In the face of such an answer, she was still a little uneasy, so she continued to ask, "Is it right to ask only what you like? I like literature. Learn literature? Love reading novels, learn novels? "

"What I like is the closeness of sex, which is the most suitable for me." Yang Yinhang continued to enlighten her.

From beginning to end, Yang Yinhang didn't tell his daughter what to choose. He wanted her to make her own choice and live in the way she liked.

In this world, some people listen to the guidance of interests, some people listen to the evaluation of others, and some people listen to their inner voices.

Yang Jiang chooses to listen to her inner voice. She wants to be what she wants to be, not what others expect.

In the third year of Soochow University, Yang Jiang had an opportunity to study abroad, and she gave it up.

On the one hand, she gave up because she considered her parents, and on the other hand, because she always had a dream of Tsinghua and wanted to study literature in Tsinghua, so she decided to enter the Tsinghua Institute.

At that time, there were many masters in Tsinghua, including Quincey Wong, Wu Mi, Liang Zongdai and Zhu Ziqing.

When she first entered Tsinghua, Yang Jiang was appreciated by Liang Zongdai.

Liang Zongdai taught French and dictated in the first class. Yang Jiang's answer surprised the teacher and asked her how she learned French. Yang Jiang replied: "self-study."

Tsinghua is the beginning for Yang Jiang to go further. Here, she also met a person who had to write about Yang Jiang-Qian Zhongshu.

Yang Jiang is a very likable girl. Her roommate summed up five conditions that boys like about her:

1. Good looks

2. Young age

3. Good homework

4. Good health

5. Good family

With these conditions, there will naturally be many people pursuing her and receiving love letters.

It can be said that Yang Jiang and Qian Zhongshu fell in love at first sight. After seeing Yang Jiang once, Qian Zhongshu has been obsessed with it. He wrote to Yang Jiang and asked her out to meet him.

Yang Jiang is naturally fond of this famous genius in Tsinghua. When they met in the I-shaped hall, Qian Zhongshu said, "I'm not engaged."

Yang Jiang said, "I don't have a boyfriend."

They both said it almost at the same time. It can only be said that fate is so magical. Some people meet for the first time and promise for life.

From then on, Qian Zhongshu wrote to Yang Jiang almost every day, but Yang Jiang didn't reply much. Qian Zhongshu asked her why, and she only replied that she didn't like writing letters.

Qian Zhongshu is extremely proud in Tsinghua, but Yang Jiang is also famous in Tsinghua.

At that time, Mr. Zhu Ziqing was still in Tsinghua, and Yang Jiang took his prose exercise course. In the first class, Zhu Ziqing asked everyone to write an article called "Receiving Footprints".

On that occasion, Yang Jiang's article was praised by Zhu Ziqing and recommended to Shen Congwen, editor of Ta Kung Pao Literary Supplement.

After the article was published, Ta Kung Pao also paid Yang Jiang 5 yuan money for the manuscript. Later, Zhu Ziqing recommended another novel of hers for publication.

In her life, Yang Jiang has made great achievements in translation, writing and drama. Even Qian Zhongshu is full of praise for her prose.

in 1935, Qian Zhongshu's service in China expired, and he successfully obtained the quota of studying abroad.

yang Jiang, however, has not graduated from Tsinghua research institute.

However, for Qian Zhongshu, she resolutely chose to drop out of school, because she knows this talented person too well. Although she is a genius, she is incomparably stupid in the face of life.

"He can't tie the butterfly button of his shoelaces, he can't even tell his left foot from his right foot when he wears shoes, and he doesn't know how to use chopsticks. He has no charm at all, like a child who knows nothing."

My parents were very supportive of Yang Jiang's decision.

Qian Zhongshu is all thumbs, but he has always been very attentive to Yang Jiang.

On the first day when I moved to my new house, I prepared a hearty breakfast for Yang Jiang, including butter, jam, honey and the best sunshine.

No one is born to live, and everyone has to study before they can live a good life. Yang Jiang is, and so is Qian Zhongshu.

Although the economy is limited, the days abroad are well managed by them, with you, me, love and warmth.

Not long after she went abroad, Yang Jiang became pregnant. Qian Zhongshu said, "I don't want a son. I want only one daughter, just like yours." Yang Jiang smiled without saying anything, but said in his heart, "I hope my daughter is like you."

When she was about to give birth, they rushed to the hospital, and the doctor asked if she must be a female doctor. Qian Zhongshu said, "The best."

On May 19th, 1937, Yang Jiang finally gave birth to a girl, and this girl was Ayuan.

During the confinement period, Qian Zhongshu was alone at home, and various situations occurred.

He ran to the hospital and said to Yang Jiang, "I did something bad, knocked over the ink bottle and dyed the tablecloth of the landlord's house."

Yang Jiang replied, "Never mind, I can wash it."

"I did something bad and broke the desk lamp";

"Never mind, I can fix it"

"I did something bad, and the door couldn't be closed"

"Never mind, I can fix it"

There are many such things, but as long as Yang Jiang said "Never mind", Qian Zhongshu was relieved.

When Yang Jiang got home, the tablecloth was cleaned, the desk lamp was repaired and the door was repaired. This home is a perfect home again.

On one occasion, Yang Jiang read a sentence.
