Since ancient times, family marriage can be said to be a kind of strong union, on the basis of marriage, no matter from which point of view, the two families can reach closer cooperation to achieve complementary power or wealth growth, the so-called door-to-door pair is this meaning. Therefore, most marriages at that time were decided by parents.
Of course, in the Republic of China period, because of the collision of old and new ideas, many young people who have received a good education advocate free marriage, thinking that what their parents are looking for is not good, and only through their own contact, feelings have come together, so the door is no longer important. In this regard, the rich man born with a golden key is the most typical.
In the modern history of China in the first half of the 20th century, "Jiang Song Kong Chen" was a powerful and well-known family of the four major families, and many major events in modern Chinese history were closely related to the characters of these four families, this Kong Lingyi was the eldest daughter who was most favored by Kong Xiangxi, and was known as "Miss Kong". Kong Xiangxi and Song Xialing have a total of 4 children, and the most favored by Kong Xiangxi is the eldest daughter Kong Lingyi.
Kong Lingyi is the first child born in the Kong Song family, and has been loved by everyone since she was a child, plus Song Meiling has no children, so she treats this child as her own, so Kong Lingyi has always grown up in Song Meiling's family when she was young, and even Chiang Kai-shek is very conniving with her.
Kong Lingyi and this little aunt are very close: when Chiang Kai-shek and Soong Mei-ling married, she was the little bridesmaid at the wedding. Later, she studied middle school in Nanjing, and lived in the Jiang family for several years, and was deeply loved by Jiang song and his wife. It is said that she can break into Chiang's bedroom without knocking on the door. Chiang Kai-shek, on the other hand, wrote a letter to Soong Mei Ling in the Military Brigade, and although the letter was short, he mentioned Kong Lingyi many times, not only by the name "Baby", but also concerned about inquiring about his condition, remembering his birthday, and treating him as if he were his own child.
With this multi-layered relationship, Kong Lingyi is extremely particular about dressing on weekdays, completely a noble lady's style, according to records, she drinks bird's nest soup every day for breakfast, and is equipped with a variety of high-grade dim sum specially flown from Hong Kong. Lunch is at least six dishes and two soups. Perfumes, fat powders, and lipsticks for makeup are all French, clothes are changed every day, and even bath powders are used in Britain. The extent to which the children of the rich are rich can be seen.
Slowly, Kong Lingyi grew up, came out like a flower, to the age when she should be married, the family lineage is so prominent, Kong Xiangxi and Song Xiaoling are very cautious about the marriage of the eldest daughter, and the requirements for the future son-in-law are also very high, and they have always hoped to pick a best object for her, and Song Meiling is also particularly concerned about her marriage.
To this end, the parents used their power to decide to select some excellent officers in the army, and finally selected a few, everyone thought that Kong Lingyi would agree to the marriage, but she refused. The reason is simple, some of them are called Ichisuke Takefu and do not understand romance; some think that they are too old to be appropriate.
Still
The two refusals made Kong Xiangxi and Song Xialing understand their daughter's thoughts: she wanted to find a young and handsome young man. Just when the couple was at a loss for their daughter's marriage, there was a "hero" in the newly built Air Force of the Kuomintang. At that time, the great warlord Han Fuyu had a division commander, Sun Tongxuan's younger brother Sun Tonggang, who studied aircraft piloting in Germany. Sun Tonggang once flew a German trainer plane alone from Berlin, flew over the Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean, and finally landed safely in Nanjing, which became a sensational news. Sun Tonggang was in his early thirties at the time, and for the sake of future glory and wealth, he hoped to have a relationship with Kong Xiangxi, a powerful man of the dynasty. Kong Xiangxi was returning from a visit to Germany at that time and wanted to be the minister of aviation, so he was extremely appreciative of Sun Tonggang. Li Yuwan, then a counselor of the Ministry of Finance, saw Kong Xiangxi's intentions and tried his best to match them.
Who knows kong Lingyi is very unhappy after learning about this, she does not like her parents to intervene, in her love, as long as there is affection between the two people, so she is not willing to listen to her parents at all.
Just when her parents broke their hearts over the marriage of this daughter, Kong Lingyi met someone she had been waiting for all her life. Once Kong Lingyi went to a dance party, Kong Lingyi, who did not like to communicate, sat alone and drank, at this time, a young man wearing a black suit and a black collar flower invited her to dance, entered her vision, the dance music ended, the young man invited her to drink coffee, Kong Lingyi gladly went, just like this, the two fell in love.
After Kong Xiangxi found out about this, he immediately sent someone to inquire into the details of this young man. The young man's name is Chen Ji'en, who just graduated from St. John's University, his father is the conductor of a dance band, and he has also stayed in Yang, compared to the Kong family, the family is particularly poor, can only be regarded as a family that lives a life, for this, Kong Xiangxi and Song Xialing are determined to stop Kong Lingyi's impulse.
Unexpectedly, Kong Lingyi did not listen at all, insisted on interacting with Chen Ji'en, and even did not hesitate to argue with his parents, and in the end, Kong Xiangxi compromised. However, in order to take care of the family's face, Kong Xiangxi soon appointed Chen Ji'en as the deputy director of the Kuomintang Central Bank Business Bureau. Later, he was sent to the United States and became a business agent of the central bank in the United States office.
Soon after, Kong Lingyi came to the United States in the name of studying abroad, and announced her marriage to Chen Ji'en in the United States, and Song Xialing asked the wife of Gao Bingfang, the director of the Direct Taxation Department of the Ministry of Finance, to organize a women's task force of the Ministry of Finance to rush to make a dowry for him overnight. A week later, the dowry of the eight large camphor wood boxes was sent to the Coral Dam Airport in Chongqing, and Kong Xiangxi chartered a special plane to send the 8 boxes of dowry to the United States. Unexpectedly, shortly after the plane took off, there was an accident. The 8 large boxes of dowry, along with the plane, were reduced to ashes in the raging fire. Kong Xiangxi and Song Xialing also ordered people to rush to make 6 boxes of dowry overnight and send them to the United States.
In response to this incident, the "Ta Kung Pao" of that year commented on the matter under the title of "Talking about Miss Kong Feimei's Marriage", and pointed out in the comments: "The cost of Kong Lingyi's dowry (calculated by the loss of an airplane for the time being) can make 2,000 disaster victims have food and clothing a year, and they can also maintain simple reproduction." If you add up the total cost of Kong Lingyi, you can help more than 10,000 refugees. The fact that the Ministry of Finance has been working on its dowry overnight is also amazing. If the manpower of the Ministry of Finance, who made the dowry for Kong Lingyi twice, was used to make the costumes of the soldiers on the front line, it would not be a problem to supply about two divisions of quilts. This became a very disgraceful thing for the Kong family.
What is lamentable is that this troublesome marriage is due to chen Ji'en, a poor boy, who became a rich son-in-law overnight, did not keep his original intention, began to live wantonly, relied on the power of the Kong family all day long, lived a completely different luxury life, and became playful and romantic.
What especially made Kong Lingyi intolerable was that he began to make friends with various celebrities, and put Kong Lingyi, a rich man, aside, he was no longer the single-minded Ruyi Langjun he used to be, she repeatedly quarreled with him, and when she quarreled, she unfortunately fell, and also lost the child in her belly, and finally, this sensational luxury marriage ended in a breakup. There is an old saying that if you don't listen to your parents, you will suffer losses in front of you, and Kong Lingyi's marriage is indeed like this, causing many people to sigh and sigh.
