01▼
Mao Yanwen was born in 1898 to a wealthy squire family in Jiangshan County, Zhejiang Province.
Because of his father's enlightenment, Mao Yanwen was exposed to new education early on, and his father's support and encouragement made Mao Yanwen emerge in learning very early.
From primary school to university, it was all the way to hang, in 1916, he was admitted to the Beijing Women's Higher Normal School as the first place in Zhejiang Province, and transferred to Nanjing Jinling Women's University in 1922.
Mao Yanwen can be said to be both talented and sociable, so he was elected as the interim chairman of the Zhejiang branch of the Feminist League.
Her communication skills can be seen from this, as a woman who has received a new education, Mao Yanwen is a new woman with courage and courage in dealing with love.
When Mao Yanwen was 9 years old, he had betrothed dolls with the son of his father's friend. But when Mao Yanwen graduated from the Hangzhou Women's Normal School, the man's family was worried that the woman would change her mind in the future and urged marriage, and just when the man's family was ready to marry her and enter the door, she secretly escaped.
Why?
It turned out that before, she had made a lifelong agreement with her cousin Zhu Junyi and made an alliance under the moon.
It is said that this Zhu Junyi is also a high-achieving student, as early as 1910, he was admitted to the Beijing Tsinghua Academy to study in the United States.
He studied in the United States in 1916 and received his ph.D. from Columbia University in 1922, and is a typical high-level intellectual.
So how did Wu Mi meet Mao Yanwen?
Coincidentally, this Zhu Junyi and Wu Mi in the Tsinghua study period, the two are friends at the same table, the two are very close, Zhu Junyi will often Mao Yanwen wrote to his love letters to Wu Mi to see, Wu Mi every time after reading, he is full of emotions, envious.
Wu Mi also had a new understanding of this talented girl, and she also had feelings for this girl in her heart.
This also sowed the seeds for Wu Mi to pursue Mao Yanwen in the future.

In 1922, Zhu Junyi returned to China after completing his studies, which made Mao Yanwen very happy.
Originally, I thought that I could be with my cousin who had my heart in mind, but at this time, Zhu Junyi actually did not agree to marry her cousin.
The reason is that the marriage of close relatives is not good for future generations, and mao Yanwen is unacceptable for this reason.
Therefore, she asked Zhu Junyi's good friend Wu Mi to lead her way and pleaded with Zhu Junyi to change her mind, but Zhu Junyi also ate the scales and insisted on refusing to get married, so Mao Yanwen had no choice but to give up, and the ten years of feelings were in vain.
At that time, Wu Mi was completely unconcerned about Mao Yanwen's loss. On the contrary, he secretly rejoiced, because this made him ignite the fire of love in his heart, so he began to pursue Mao Yanwen fiercely.
It is said that at that time, Wu Mi was already married, which can be said to be no coincidence, and this Wu Mi's wife turned out to be Mao Yanwen's girlfriend and friend.
In 1918, Wu Mi, who was studying in the United States, received a letter from another classmate chen Liexun, who had studied at Tsinghua University, and he wanted to introduce his sister Chen Xinyi to Wu Mi as a wife, saying that his sister had studied at the Zhejiang Provincial Women's Normal School. Her sister was arrogant and arrogant, and the standards for finding a partner were very high, but she had seen the poems and articles written by Wu Mi and was very envious and willing to marry Wu Mi.
The Letter said that Wu Mi was overjoyed and excited, so Wu Mi couldn't wait to meet this girl.
In 1921, Wu Mi returned to China, and rushed to the Chen family without stopping, where she met Chen Xinyi, who had never met before, and the two did not speak when they met, but silently faced each other.
Coincidentally, on this day, Mao Yanwen happened to come to the Chen family to say goodbye to Chen Xin, and he was going to Beijing to study.
Mao Yanwen became acquainted with Wu Mi after coming and going, and Wu Mi also asked Mao Yanwen to inquire about Chen Xinyi's family situation and asked her to match between him and Chen Xinyi.
However, Wu Mi did not have much good feelings for Chen Xinyi, and his heart had been hovering between Mao Yanwen and Chen Xinyi.

In 1921, Wu Mi married Chen Xinyi, and the two spent seven years together, but finally failed to escape the fate of breaking up.
At that time, Chen Xinyi had already given birth to three daughters for Wu Mi, but in the end he could not keep her husband's heart.
She knew that her husband had always had her girlfriend Mao Yanwen in mind.
For Wu Mi, Mao Yanwen has always been his dream lover.
When Wu chased Mao, every time he wrote a letter, he always remembered that he read her letter from Zhu Junyi one year and gradually developed love and fantasy.
No wonder Mao Yanwen, who lived to be more than a hundred years old, commented on Wu Mi in his old age: "Nerd!" It can be seen that Wu Mi's emotional intelligence is really not very high, and she can't speak well.
Although Mao Yanwen refused to be with Wu Mi, Wu Mi had always been chasing and beating fiercely, and in the end, Mao Yanwen was moved.
But Wu Mi is a contradictory person after all, and he wants to get Mao Yanwen, and he is afraid of disharmony after marriage.
In March 1931, Wu Mi went to Paris for academic exchanges. He reversed his previous warm pulse and sent a telegram to the United States, strongly ordering Mao Yanwen to abandon his studies and quickly rush to Europe to complete his marriage, otherwise they would break up.
Later Mao Yanwen came to Paris.
Wu Mi did not want to get married again, so she was engaged instead. Mao Yanwen, who came full of enthusiasm, was greatly embarrassed, it turned out that the other party was trying hard to pursue her, she relaxed, and the other party changed again. Mao Yanwen cried and said, "You should always think for me how good it is for me, an old girl in her 30s." Is our starting point wrong?"
After the marriage in Paris, Wu Mi and Mao Yanwen returned from Europe. Mao Yanwen stayed in Shanghai and waited for Wu Mi to marry.
But in the end, it was Wu Mi who was worried, and in 1933, Wu Mi actually fell in love with Lu Baohua again, which really made Mao Yanwen miserable.
Mao Yanwen felt that Wu Mi was too careful, and this kind of husband was not worth marrying at all.
At that time, Mao Yanwen was being violently pursued by an old man named Xiong Xiling, and finally Mao Yanwen actually married Xiong Xiling, who was more than twenty years older than her, in 1935 under the bombardment of Xiong Xiling, and after three years of marriage, Xiong Xiling died.
At that time, Wu Mi actually re-entangled Mao Yanwen, which was really funny, but Mao Yanwen did not agree to Wu Mi's pursuit after all, and he was also alone after that.
In 1949, Mao Yanwen went to Taiwan, went to the United States in 1950 to develop, stayed in the United States for 12 years and returned to Taiwan to settle down, until he died in Taipei in 1999 at the age of 101.
