Chapter 16 15.resentment

On March 16, 1934, Ji Xianlin's diary entry: "I interviewed Ye Gongchao with (Li) Changzhi in the evening and talked for a long time. He said that he didn't read a word of the article I gave him, which made me very sad." The next day’s diary wrote: “I kept thinking about Ye Gongchao’s attitude towards me last night—damn, as long as I write a good article, what would I be afraid of?… I have already decided: Ye Mou is really unreasonable. I will ignore him from now on, really it is unreasonable, it is just unexpected." He also wrote: "When the same elder visited Lao Ye in the evening, (he) was clearly at home, but he said it out. I don't know why. Really it is unreasonable."

In the spring of 1929, when Lu Xun returned to Beijing from Shanghai to visit relatives, he met Qian Xuantong, an old acquaintance, at Kongde School.Seeing that "Zhou Shuren" was still printed on Lu Xun's business card, Qian asked with a smile, "So you still use three-character business cards instead of two." Answer: "My business cards are always three-character, never two-character, and never four-character." After saying this, Lu Xun stopped talking to Qian Xuantong.Lu Xun described this in "Books from Two Places": "Going to Kongde School, looking at old books, met Jin Liyin (referring to Qian Xuantong), fat and slippery, nagging as before, time is a pity, silent talk .”

When Chiang Kai-shek convened the Lushan meeting, Hu Yuzhi wrote a poem to ridicule Hu Shi, who was present at the meeting: "The grand meeting on Lushan Mountain was held in the hot summer, and some famous people came back to the river. Let's see my family, Dr. Hu, give another generous speech." Hu Shi replied: "Which one A cat is not called Chun, and a cicada is not called Xia. A toad is not called at night, and a gentleman is not talking." In 1923, the Fengtian Army held an exercise, Guo Songling was a member of the review committee, and Zhang Zongchang's troops were reviewed.During the exercise, Zhang felt that the conditions were bad. When he was resting in a broken room, he squatted on the kang and drank while cursing: "Damn it, this is the plan of some evil grandson to make us like this." While scolding, Guo Songling suddenly Pushing open the door, he came in and asked Zhang, "Who are you scolding?" Zhang said, "This is my oral language, and I didn't point at anyone." Guo was aggressive, pointing at Zhang's nose and yelling: "Fuck you! It's also my spoken language!" Zhang's face turned from red to black, and he jumped off the kang, thinking that Zhang had turned his face, and couldn't help but draw his gun.Unexpectedly, Zhang jumped off the kang and said to Guo: "Second Master Guo, you fuck my mother, you are my real father, what else can you say?" Guo Mozhe left in anger.Zhang later said to his subordinates: "Listen to me, I call him daddy, anyway he is not my real daddy."

After Chen Duxiu was released from prison, He Yingqin met Chen in the reception room of the Military and Political Department. According to Xie Boyuan, who was in charge of recording, the whole meeting took less than three minutes.He asked: "Mr. Chen, are you in good health?" Chen replied: "Yes." He asked again: "Are there any difficulties in life?" Chen replied: "No. Thank you!" He said: "I will have a chance in the future Let's talk again." Then he saw off the guests. After the opening of the "National University" in 1948, He Yingqin used the sore on his back as an excuse to say that he was ill and did not attend. Chiang Kai-shek was very dissatisfied.One night at eight or nine o'clock, Jiang suddenly drove to He's house. He was caught off guard and hurried upstairs to lie on the bed.Jiang went straight to the bedroom and threatened to see He's illness, but in fact he glared at him and repeatedly questioned him about his condition.He Yingqin replied that he had a big sore on his back and couldn't sit still because of the pain, so he couldn't attend the "National Congress" meeting for several days.Jiang insisted on forcing He Yingqin to take off his clothes for inspection, and only when he saw red and swollen back sores did he leave angrily.

In the autumn of 1946, Tang Enbo called several people to hold a meeting at his home at No. 1221 Xipushi Road, Shanghai, to discuss the operation of Dingtai Company.Tang thought that the chairman of the company, Chen Mingxun, was disobedient and asked him to hand over all the powers of the company.After hearing this, Chen said angrily: "Shanghai Dingtai Company has the scale it is today. I worked so hard to build it up. No one wants me to leave!" Tang stood up and said, "You must leave!" The cane pointed to Tang's face and said, "Who dares to tell me to leave?" Tang looked anxious and punched him.Not to be outdone, Chen raised his hand and slapped Tang across the face.The two then wrestled together.Seeing this, Wang Jingbai, Tang's wife, ran upstairs, and the others tried to persuade them to fight, but they couldn't break it.Tang shouted for Adjutant Wang to help, but Wang dared not go forward.They didn't give up until they were exhausted.

Zhang Fakui once supported Wang and opposed Chiang, and regarded himself as a key figure in the Wang faction.One day, when he went to Wang's house, the concierge saw that he was a regular visitor, so he went in to report immediately, and Zhang followed him.Wang Jingwei was talking with his secretary, Zeng Zhongming. After the concierge reported, Wang Lian said, "Here we go again, I hate it! I hate it!" At this time, Zhang had already walked to the door, and he could hear these words clearly.Zhang went back and said bitterly: "I have exposed Wang Jingwei's hypocrisy today."

Xu Beihong and Liu Haisu were about the same age, but Xu had briefly studied in Liu's art college.After Xu Beihong became famous, he didn't want to be said to be from the Liu family, but Liu Haisu often used this to claim himself.The two later turned against each other and slandered each other.Liu Haisu said: "If someone has a reputation, he will bully his enlightenment teacher. Then he will not care about the beauty of his talent, but he will have no personality first, and nothing else." Xu Beihong said: "Someone is just a charlatan. He has long hair, hangs a signboard, and claims to be a master, but to be honest, if I let the donkey's tail splash oil paint on the canvas, the finished painting is almost as good as it is."

In the early 1930s, Fu Lei returned from studying in France and taught at the Shanghai Art School where Liu Haisu was the principal. He resigned two years later.Fu Lei's resignation was partly due to his dissatisfaction with Liu Haisu. He later recalled: "In September 1933, when his mother passed away, he resigned from the teaching affairs of the Academy of Fine Arts. Because (1) he didn't study at a young age, he thought he was not qualified to teach. , she was even more sad because I didn’t have a degree abroad and didn’t work anymore; and at that time, she was financially independent, and my mother only paid tens of yuan a month, so she had to make a living by herself; (2) Liu Haisu treated me very well, but treated others meanly , Running a school is purely a store style, I can't stand it very much, so my mother resigned as soon as she died." In 1936, Fu Lei publicly announced that he had broken up with Liu Haisu.

Luo Ailan asked Zhu Xiang: "You have a lot of contacts with the New Moon Society, why don't you go to teach at Peking University?" Zhu Xiang said: "Peking University is one of Hu Shi's academic masters there, and I can't afford to ask them." When Wu Mi compiled a literary supplement for "Ta Kung Pao", he asked Pu Jiangqing and others for help. Once, the two had a dispute over their signatures.Pu Jiangqing wrote in his diary: "Mr. has deep prejudices and does not accept other people's opinions. He regards us as hired workers, and uses money to make people do things they don't want to do and make remarks against their will. Unfortunately, Yu was in Tsinghua. Recommend, otherwise it’s just to make a fuss for him.” Wu Mi wrote in his diary that day: “Mi Chen’s difficulties in doing things, Mr. Pu’s emotions are so strong that he cries. Mi can only comfort him. Mi’s difficulties in doing things cannot Tell people. Cover the "Literary Supplement" to praise you, all of them are literati and scholars. Therefore, (1) they are full of enthusiasm; (2) they are emotional; (3) they despise utilitarianism; (4) they often talk a lot regardless of actual needs and difficulties But little success. One's own achievements are meager and he is good at criticizing other people's articles and interfering in other people's thoughts and actions."

Pu Jiangqing said: "Xu Zhimo's man and poem can be described as 'gross', and after his death, Beiping's "Morning News" published a special issue for January, and it was heard all over the world. Young men and women admired it and thought it was a great poet. I have never had it, and it is almost in the eyes of the god of poetry and love." Before and after the "May 4th Movement", Hu Shi and Zhang Shizhao were once opponents in the debate between old and new cultures, and they cursed each other in their respective positions (newspapers). In 1925, there was a treat, and the two met at the Toutiao Xieying Fan Restaurant in Langfang outside Qianmen. Zhang invited Hu to take a group photo, and they each held a photo.Zhang wrote a vernacular poem on the photo as a gift to Hu: "Your surname is Hu, and my surname is Zhang. / What new literature are you talking about, / I still speak in my old accent. / If you don't attack me, I won't refute, / Both mouths sit together , Each has its own heart. /Thirty or fifty years later, /This photo is good for literary commemoration. /Haha, /I wrote vernacular crooked words to send you, /Finally, Lao Zhang surrendered./" Hu also wrote He wrote an old-style poem as a gift: "But you can't be a teacher if you open up the atmosphere. I like what Gong Sheng said the most. I am also a person who has opened up the atmosphere. I hope that the long-term relatives will not despise each other." When the debate between the two sides was the most intense, once in Shanghai , Wang Yuanfang invited guests, and Zhang Shizhao, Hu Shi, and Chen Duxiu were all present.Hu Dang told Zhang that your article was not worth refuting, and Zhang was not angry after hearing this.

The March 18 tragedy happened when Zhang Shizhao was the chief education officer, so he naturally became the focus of public opinion attacks.Old friend Shen Yinmo publicly declared to sever ties with him, referring to Zhang as a sinner, and so on.Lu Xun even called Zhang Shizhao "Zhang Shizhao" in the article.Later, Zhang Shizhao resigned and went to Shanghai to become a lawyer, and Shen Yinmo also resigned as the president of Peking University to sell calligraphy in Shanghai for a living.Zhang Zeng wrote to Shen and said: Those who scolded me in the past loved me, and those who loved me harmed me in the past.After Shen Yinmo got the letter, he put aside his past suspicions, and the two had a close relationship in Shanghai.Chen Duxiu, one of the main leaders of the New Culture Movement, was later arrested, and Zhang also served as Chen's defense lawyer. Liu Shipei, an ancient writer, and Cui Shi, a modern writer, are academic rivals.Coincidentally, the two lived door to door in the residence on Peking University, and met day and night. Whenever they met, they were polite, calling each other Mr. and bowing to each other.However, when they stand on the podium, they look different, and they attack each other without mercy. In the early 1930s, Chen Xiying said: "In the past seven or eight years, there have been many turmoil and quarrels in the domestic literary and art circles, and many close friends are often unable to see each other." Lu Xun once denounced Xu Zhimo as a "hooligan" in front of Ye Gongchao. Later, Ye told Guo Moruo what Lu Xun had said, and Guo said, "Of course, Lu Xun will scold everyone except himself." After Lu Xun's death, Xu Maoyong sent an elegiac couplet: "Is it an enemy or a friend? Yu Wei asked himself. Knowing that I have sinned against me, I have nothing to say." Liang Shiqiu said: "Literati like Mr. Yu Dafu are not paid too lightly. They spend their days drinking and drinking, and live a middle-class decadent life. When they write, they often complain about bitterness. It seems that they have suffered the most unfair treatment from society. This is the most contemptible place." On the eve of the Anti-Japanese War, Liang Shiqiu and Luo Longji went to Tsinghua University to visit Pan Guangdan, and stopped by Wen Yi's family next door.Wen Yiduo said to Luo Longji: "Historically, there are only two ways to achieve success and salary. One is positive acquisition, and the other is negative acquisition. Threat shoulders to flatter and laugh, ashi to seek glory, sell one's body for refuge, and soar to the top are called positive acquisition; Zhou Yu insults, those who want to get ahead are called rebels, and they are also the ones who are rebellious." During the Anti-Japanese War, Ai Qing, He Jianxun and Lu Ling all taught at the Yucai School run by Tao Xingzhi in Chongqing.He likes to raise the bar. He once accused Ai Qing of machismo, and often made some remarks that disrespected women and insulted women.Ai Qing argued: "My wife is a woman, and my mother is a woman. How can I disrespect my wife and mother? Even if I inevitably have conflicts with my wife and scold my wife, I have never disrespected my mother." He Jianxun retorted: "Could it be Are the mothers of those who insult women men?" Afterwards, the two fell out completely, and He Jianxun left Yucai School. After the September 18th Incident, Ma Junwu's poem "Sorrow in Shenyang" was once circulated for a while: "Zhao Si is romantic, Zhu Wu is mad, and the butterfly is right. The gentle town is the hero's tomb, and the east division enters Shenyang." The poem is not the truth. .Taiwanese writer Gao Yang recalled in his later years that he once met Miss Zhu Wu, who was 80 years old, named Zhu Meiyun. Zhu Wu told him one thing, saying that he met Ma Junwu during a dinner party, so he went to toast with a wine glass: " You are Dr. Ma, Ma Junwu, right? I am Zhu Wu." Ma Dun showed embarrassment and left without waiting for the final table. When Lu Xun mentioned Cheng Fangwu once, he said: "He wants to destroy me, how can I forget it?" "As long as Cheng Fangwu stands at the gate of the Palace of Art, I can't get in." Lin Yutang said: "Lu Xun and I met each other twice, and those who were estranged twice, that is, the separation, all out of nature, and it is not because I have a relationship with Lu Xun. I always respect Lu Xun; Lu Xun cares about me, I like him to know each other , Lu Xun abandoned me, and I have no regrets." In 1932, in order to rescue Niu Lan and his wife, a total of 36 people led by Liu Yazi signed a call to Juzheng, the president of the Judicial Yuan of the Nanjing Government, requesting to release them. typeface.Liu Yazi then sent a letter to Lu Xun and other signatories to inform the matter, and said: "Juesheng (ju Zhengzi) is a member of the Tongmenghui and a member of the Nanshe. According to the qualifications in the Nanshe, I am still the president. Moreover, we are old friends, he has become the Chief of Justice, and he should 'should' pick me up, that is something that the President can't do but can do." In the 1930s, Liang Sicheng and his wife lived in Zongbu Hutong, Beiping, and Jin Yuelin lived in the backyard of the Liang family.Celebrities from academia often come to get together, making this yard gradually become a rather famous cultural salon.Lin Huiyin played an important role in this cultural salon.Bing Xin later wrote a novel titled "Our Wife's Living Room", which has the following description: "Although our wife is a woman herself, she doesn't like women. She thinks Chinese women are very old-fashioned, trivial, and special. Xiao Fang." "Our wife came in lightly from the door, she was so light when her toes touched the ground... But time has drawn a faint black circle around her eye circles, her cheeks have faded red, Pang'er is not as good The picture is so plump, and the waist is not as soft as it was ten years ago in '29 Nianhua'!" "The wife took another picture in the corner mirror, turned around and half-lyed on the sofa, with her elbows Leaning on the armrest, with both legs flat on one side, smiling and raising his head, this posture reminds people of a famous European painting.” Many people, including Lin Huiyin himself, believe that this is Bing Xin alluding to and mocking Lin Huiyin , Li Jianwu recalled: "I remember that she (Lin Huiyin) told a proud and interesting story in person. Bing Xin wrote a novel "Our Wife's Living Room" to satirize her, because every Saturday afternoon, several friends centered on her. Various phenomena and problems. She happened to return to Beiping from Shanxi to investigate temples, and brought a jar of old and fragrant Shanxi vinegar, and immediately asked someone to give it to Bing Xin to eat." But Bing Xin said in an interview in 1992: ""Our Wife Xiao Qian thought that it was written by Lin Huiyin, but in fact (the prototype) was Lu Xiaoman.” Hu Feng said: "Once Lu Xun said with emotion: Mao Dun likes to say 'rich words'. This is a small conclusion of his and Mao Dun's friendship for more than ten years." In June 1927, when Lu Xun mentioned Cai Yuanpei, he said: "This man and I are the ones who don't agree with each other." The words "my friend Hu Shizhi" sometimes made some people outside Hu Shi's circle feel jealous. Liang Zongdai said: "Hu Shi has corrupted our style of study to a certain extent. Our learning is neither solid nor honest. , Blindly follow the fashion, seek false fame." In November 1926, Luo Zhenyu sent a letter to Wang Guowei: "My younger brother and my father have been friends for 30 years. During these 30 years, most of them will be together. There is no gap in learning, but there are fundamental differences. My younger brother is more fraternal. , close to ink; the public prefers self-love, close to Yang. This cannot be taboo." Weng Wenhao and Li Siguang were at odds. When Ding Wenjiang was alive, he tried to mediate the relationship between the two, but Weng refused to accept the mediation. Gu Jiegang and Yan Wenliang were young.The two had a close relationship, but one day they fell out for unknown reasons and started fighting.In a panic, Gu Jie grabbed Yan's wrist and took a bite.Years later, Yen showed Zheng Yimei the scars, and Zheng said, "Despite decades, the scars still remain on my wrists." In 1923, Hu Shi said in an article: "Many political comments before and after are not as valuable as the articles criticizing Liang Shuming and Zhang Junmai at this time." Chen Duxiu responded: "Liang Shuming and Zhang Junmai were taught a lesson by Shizhi. A ray of hope in the world!" Liang Shuming thought: "I don't think I am against their movement! I don't think I am their enemy, they are my enemy." "They think I am an enemy, but I don't mean that." .” During the Anti-Japanese War, Song Yunbin was in Guilin.After the first "Complete Works of Lu Xun" was published, it was sent to Guilin. Song read it carefully and compiled a volume of "Lu Xun Quotations".Later, when Cao Juren went to Guilin, Song asked Cao: "Why didn't Lu Xun scold you?" Yang Shilang once joined He Tianjian's family to study painting. He regarded Yang very highly and even regarded Yang as his only heir.But later, Yang Shilang changed his mind and changed his mind when he saw that Wu Hufan's side was very popular, so he switched to the Wu family.He was extremely indignant, and naturally he also angered Wu Hufan, so he broke off friendship with Wu. Kang Youwei once wrote poems praising Lin Shu's translation, but Yan Fu always looked down on Lin Shu. When he saw Kang Youwei's poems, he accused Kang of nonsense. There is no "translator" in the world who doesn't know foreign characters. In 1922, Hu Shi drafted a declaration of "Our Proposition". Fifteen people, including Cai Yuanpei, Liang Shuming, and Li Dazhao, participated in the discussion and signed it. , he is a virgin, and he does not want to associate with us who have been prostitutes. But Mr. Cai has always been eclectic, so why reject us?" In 1934, the "Literary Quarterly", which Ba Jin participated in editing, removed the draft of "Rabbit" submitted by Ji Xianlin.This made Ji Xianlin very dissatisfied. He wrote in his diary on March 25 and 26, 1934: "It is expected that Ba Jin and others look down on us, but why have we ever looked down on them?" I was very upset about the incident. Today I heard (Li) Changzhi say that several people have revealed their true colors. Ba Jin’s stupidity and shallowness are really unexpected. Now I am surprised, because I wrote a small The article actually provoked these disputes and caused many people to reveal their true colors, which is a disgrace to the scenery, but it can also see the truth." On the morning of July 19, 1923, Zhou Zuoren sent a letter to Lu Xun: "Mr. Lu Xun: I just found out yesterday—but there is no need to talk about the past. I am not a Christian, but fortunately I can still afford it. I don’t want to blame anyone,——everyone is a pitiful human being. My previous Qiangwei’s dreams were all illusions, but what I see now may be the real life. I want to correct my thinking and start a new life again. In the future Please don’t come to the back yard again. I have nothing else to say. May you feel at ease and respect yourself. July 18th, be a man.” On July 14th, Lu Xun wrote in his diary: “It’s the night when I changed my room. I have a meal for myself, so I can remember it." That day's diary entry: "Qimeng (Zhou Zuoren) came with a letter in the morning, and later invited him to ask questions, but he didn't come." Since then, the brothers have lost peace.What Zhou Zuoren referred to in his letter has been talked about and guessed, and it is still a mystery to this day. Liu Wendian said: "At Southwest Associated University, Chen Yinke is the real professor. He should get 400 yuan, I should get 40 yuan, and Shen Congwen should get 4 yuan. But I will not give him 40 cents. Shen Congwen is a professor, so what am I? Then what am I? Am I not too good to be a professor?” One time when Shen Congwen ran into the police, Shen Congwen bumped into Liu Wendian. Liu Wendian then said to the students: “Chen Yinke ran the police to preserve the quintessence of China. , I, Liu, ran for Zhuangzi, you ran for the future, who did Shen Congwen run for?" In May 1929, when Lu Xun returned to Beijing from Shanghai to visit relatives, he was invited to give lectures in some schools. On the evening of May 22, he wrote to Xu Guangping and said: "I went to Yenching University to give a lecture for one hour in the evening, and there were many people listening. As usual, I scolded from Cheng Fangwu to Xu Zhimo. Yenching University is mostly modern believers—— Probably because Bing Xin is here—you scold me, I’m surprised.”
