Chapter 47 Green Water Flows (7)

Song Meiling went up to Lushan Mountain from Lianhua Cave in a sedan chair. One summer, Nanjing was too hot.After Song Meiling shouted about the heat for a week, Chiang Kai-shek decided to accompany his wife to Mount Lushan.At that time, Nanjing Airport was called Ming Palace Airport.The couple flew from the Forbidden City of the Ming Dynasty to a temporary airport on the other side of the Jiujiang River in the early morning.Jiangxi Provincial Chairman Wang Lingji waited for the head of state and his wife at the temporary airport. Two mountain sedan chairs have long been waiting in Lianhua Cave.

On this day, Soong Meiling wore a pair of brown short trousers, showing her legs below the knee.On top was an apricot silk shirt.A diamond brooch pinned to the chest.Her hair was combed back and she wore a large American straw hat with a wide brim.She was very merry, whistling smartly all the time.She looked so young and beautiful. Chiang Kai-shek was still wearing his daily grass-green serge military uniform that day, but he wore a Panama hat on his head, which is meant to escape the summer and relax.He was listless and yawned constantly. At that time, the head of state, Chiang Kai-shek, kept yawning and accompanied his radiant wife to the mountains to escape the summer heat. Everyone must have thought that the head of state and his wife were deeply affectionate.

Chiang Kai-shek arranged a sedan chair for his wife.There are eight bearers in one sedan chair.What kind of woman is Song Meiling?Daily milk bath, fluent English.Then, the choice of bearers should also be worthy of your wife. All the bearers are indanthrene Chinese-style shorts and jackets, and all of them are from Fenghua. Chiang Kai-shek's Lushan Xingxie is on East Road near Guling Street.This Western-style villa was originally owned by a foreign pastor. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces a stream on the other. It was named Meilu after his wife as a gift to Song Meiling.

From our point of view, love is here.A man, a woman, and a gift are a priceless garden villa.Seriously, what love does the poor have?Poor and lowly couples mourn all kinds of things, and the best ending is just to live together without arguing or fighting.It is by no means love that people live together out of the human nature of being afraid of being alone. Standing in front of the secluded Meilu, I seem to see the peerless beauty Song Meiling coming from the tree-lined path.If she didn't get love, who else got love? However, real life always gives me confusion. Two days after Song Meiling went up the mountain, Chiang Kai-shek told her that the wife of the US special envoy Marshall was also going up the mountain.The smart Meiling is well aware of the importance of the United States to her husband, and she understands what her husband needs to do on his own.

Soong Meiling spent two full days choosing No. 15 Hexi Road as the mansion for Mrs. Marshall, and carefully arranged it according to her own living experience in the United States.At that time, he personally went to Xiaotian to meet Mrs. Marshall.Within two days, the five-constellation plane of Marshall's special envoy also landed slowly at Jiujiang Airport, and Song Meiling accompanied Mrs. Marshall to Xiaotianchi again. Special Envoy Marshall was very happy. After Xiao Tianchi embraced and kissed his wife, he even leaned over and kissed the back of Soong Meiling's hand.Envoy Marshall was in high spirits and wanted to walk from Xiaotianchi to Hexi Road under the watchful eyes of everyone.Americans are used to democracy and freedom, but they don't know that the mother of a country in our country can't just walk in the street market casually.Besides, how could Soong Meiling's daughter-in-law's tender body bear this kind of fatigue?But Song Meiling agreed.She asked Marshall to hold her arm, and walked from Xiaotianchi to Hexi Road. Along the way, the common people who watched the excitement rushed to tell each other, covered their mouths and snickered, and said many nasty things in private.

A few days later, the new American Ambassador Stuart climbed the mountain to submit his credentials.Soong Meiling has been busy for a while. One day, Song Meiling and Mrs. Marshall were playing chess in the garden.Song Meiling couldn't help sighing that she was too tired.So the two ladies decided to go swimming. At noon, at the dinner table.Song Meiling said: I go to the Lizhi club for swimming at three o'clock in the afternoon. Chiang Kai-shek didn't say a word after hearing this. Daling, Song Meiling said: You don't agree with me going swimming? Chiang Kai-shek said: It is not appropriate for you to do this.

Soong Meiling was saddened from her chest.She said: why? Chiang Kai-shek said: For the wife of the head of state, you go to a public swimming pool to swim, what do you wear in front of the common people? Song Meiling said: What to wear?She couldn't help but smile wryly.Are you going into the water with a full suit on? Chiang Kai-shek said: So it is not appropriate to say it.What does it mean to be naked? Song Meiling shrugged: In the United States, it is very common for women to swim in swimsuits. Chiang Kai-shek said: This is in China! Song Meiling was speechless for a long while.After a while, she raised her eyebrows: so you mean to ban me?

Chiang Kai-shek looked embarrassed. But—Song Meiling took out her trump card calmly, and she said: I have promised Mrs. Marshall. What is there to bring out the Americans?If Chiang Kai-shek can easily change his views, is he still Chiang Kai-shek? Three o'clock in the afternoon.Song Meiling appeared in the swimming pool.She wore a floral shirt and white shorts, wore a pair of white moccasins barefoot, and held a delicate straw hat.She is very well dressed.Mrs. Marshall, wearing a bright red Hawaiian shirt, took a big bath and bathing suit and said happily: Meiling, let's change into the bathing suit.

Song Meiling said: I stopped swimming because I was not feeling well.But I found Dorothy to swim with you, and I will watch you by the pool. Dorothy is the daughter of Song Ziwen, a Chinese girl who grew up in the United States. Dorothy was already wearing a bathing suit, with only a towel coat over it, and came running freely and lively. Mrs. Marshall and Dorothy ran up to the diving platform in their bathing suits, laughing and diving.The crowd applauded.Many foreign boys whistled and cheered. Soong Meiling sat by the pool, took off her leather shoes, and silently dipped her feet into the pool.

In another villa in Lushan, Chiang Kai-shek's working team is working intensely.The staff had the following conversation. One person said: Oh, the military generals are summoned up the mountain one by one, what a trouble.Madame is afraid of the heat, so it is enough to install air-conditioning in the official residence. One person said: Is it because of Madam?what do you know!Peace negotiations are underway in Nanjing, can the head of state gather the generals to Nanjing? Another person said: The Führer believes in Feng Shui very much.At the beginning, he ordered a full-scale war of resistance on Lushan Mountain, and the war of resistance was victorious.The drafting of a military plan to attack the Communist Party in an all-round way this time is of great importance!Of course, we must go to Lushan Mountain, an auspicious place.

Apparently, politics eats up love. Perhaps these stories are deduced misrepresentations of later generations.But why didn't Miscommunication become a touching story of and such?Touching love stories are always in mythology, in songbooks, in some distant era in the past. Jiang Qing also went to Mount Lushan, and what we have left with written records is that she was participating in the revolutionary practice activities of the Communist Party (the records and sayings of the year). He Zizhen also went to Mount Lushan.What still rings in my ears is the desolate cry of Mao Zedong's second wife. These three women are extraordinary women, and their husbands are undoubtedly the dragons among men.Their emotions must be many times richer and more sensitive than ordinary people.And what did we learn from their stories as a result? Mao Zedong was especially witty.When he drove away Chiang Kai-shek and became the leader of New China, he pointed at the word Meilu and laughed.He said: Why is it called this name?Doesn’t the American character become a big bastard once it is reversed? A tyrant suddenly wiped away all the love elements of Meilu, and turned into a politician's ridicule of another politician. Mao Zedong and Jiang Qing also lived in Meilu.Mao Zedong changed the sitting toilet to a squatting toilet.He is used to squatting.Jiang Qing hangs curtains and carpets in her room. She likes to be quiet, and her bedroom is not in the same room as Mao Zedong's. Now Meilu has a table lamp on display, the lampshade seems to have been rose red, and the silk lampshade has tassels and borders, very gaudy and vulgar.The narrator said that this was the desk lamp used by Soong Meiling.I don't believe it at all.Real things are most likely to be misrepresented by history, and the longer the history, the clearer it is the spiritual life.
