Chapter 19 father died suddenly

Not long after Huiyin and Sicheng came to the University of Pennsylvania, Sicheng's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and had reached an advanced stage.Liang Qichao originally planned to let Sicheng return to China "to fulfill his due filial piety", but unexpectedly his wife Li Huixian died of illness soon, and even if Sicheng rushed back immediately, it would take more than a month.Liang Qichao sent a telegram to Sicheng again, telling him to study in the United States without worrying about going back, and his relatives in China will take care of all the funeral affairs.

Every family has chores that are not humane, and the Liang family, a large family with a large population, is no exception.In the grief of Mrs. Li's death, what is unavoidable in the Liang family is that Sicheng's mother has always had a grudge against Huiyin, a "modern woman", until the last moment of her life. Yu Huai. Sicheng's elder sister, Sishun, returned to China from the Philippines in the six months before her mother died of illness. She served her mother in her clothes and sympathized with all the pain before her mother died of illness. Sishun has a very special position in the Liang family.She is 8 years older than Sicheng. As the eldest daughter, she is especially trusted by her parents and respected by her younger siblings.Due to Mrs. Li's poor health, Liang Qichao has been accustomed to seeking Sishun's advice for a long time on all matters in the family.In the grief of losing his mother, Sishun could not forget his mother's worry about Sicheng and dissatisfaction with Huiyin.

All kinds of news and rumors reached the United States through various channels.Huiyin felt awkward and even embarrassed.She can't accept the accusations of the family she is about to enter, and she is unwilling to compromise even with the one she loves. Huiyin has never been a person who suppresses herself and seeks perfection. All her grievances can only be vented to Sicheng.She angrily alienates Sicheng, and goes out with her classmates to listen to music and watch operas.Usually a little contradiction can lead to a fierce dispute.They argue, get angry, say the last thing the other party wants to hear, then make up, and then have a new argument.They were thin, pale, and had trouble sleeping and eating. In fact, they knew each other in their hearts, and they both loved each other deeply.Because only love can make people feel so painful and helpless.

Suffering from emotional torture, Sicheng poured out his pain in a letter to his relatives. He wrote to his elder sister Sishun: "——I feel that I will be punished as much as I have done wrong, and I will not turn around until I finish .” He hopes to get the understanding and help of his relatives. Sicheng's elder sister, Sishun, had returned to her home in Canada at this time. In normal family life, her painful mood was restored and she gradually regained her calm.She loves her little brother, and her love for him is similar to that of a mother, and she can't bear to watch him suffer.

Liang Qichao regarded children as his life, and he was very relieved to learn that the children's relationship had been restored.In a letter to his daughter, he wrote: "...Sishun has completely recovered his feelings for Huiyin. I am very happy to hear that. This is the key to Sicheng's happiness in his life. I was very afraid of Sicheng a few months ago. Having a mental disorder and destroying this child, I am completely relieved now...” Pain and misfortune often follow one another. In December 1925, Huiyin's father, Lin Changmin, died suddenly, and the huge disaster engulfed Huiyin immediately.

At that time, Lin Changmin served as the chief of staff of Guo Songling, deputy commander of the Third Army of the Northeast Army.Guo Songling is a pivotal figure in the Northeast Army.

In 1925, Guo Songling assembled 100,000 elite soldiers from the Northeast Army and turned against Feng.He sent telegrams across the country to oppose Zhang Zuolin's warlord dictatorship, demanded Zhang Zuolin's resignation, and advocated the elimination of warlord melee and the realization of democratic politics.Lin Changmin devoted himself to it, making suggestions and calling for it.Guo Songling's team was ambushed by the Feng army led by Zhang Xueliang in the Juliu River area. Lin Changmin was killed by a stray bullet at the age of 50.
