In Beiping in 1931, a seemingly beautiful official palace was falling apart in the storm. The three sisters of the Yang family, Yang Chengye, Yang Chengliang and Yang Chengfang, were caught in this family storm at a young age. Who would have thought that these three seemingly ordinary girls would shine in the literary and film worlds in the future?
In the middle of the family, the three sisters find their own way out
The Yang family was originally a figure with a head and a face in Beiping. 's father Yang Zhenhua made a fortune in business, and his mother Ding Fengyi is a talented and beautiful Hunan girl. But the good times didn't last long, and in 1931, Yang Zhenhua's business failed and he left. 44-year-old Ding Fengyi had to shoulder the burden of life alone.
The three daughters were suddenly left to rely on. The eldest daughter, Yang Chengye, is 17 years old and in the prime of her cardamom years; The second daughter Yang Chengliang is 14 years old and smart; The youngest daughter Yang Chengfang is only 11 years old and innocent. Faced with sudden changes, the three sisters had to find their own way out.
Willing to seek the near and far, the eldest sister Yang Chengye resisted marriage and ran away
Ding Fengyi was anxious to get out of the predicament, and planned to let her eldest daughter Yang Chengye marry a junior officer of the Northeast Army to be a junior. Yang Chengye resolutely objected, and would rather give up his studies than escape from this family business. She ran away from home and barely survived by working as a tutor.
Soon, Yang Chengye met Zhang Zhongxing, who was 5 years older than her. The two soon lived together, causing a storm in the city. Ding Fengyi was so angry that she was sick in bed, but Yang Chengye still went his own way. The relationship lasted for a few years, and Yang Chengye also gave birth to a child, but eventually parted ways for various reasons.
is both talented and beautiful, and the second sister Yang Chengliang got married in a hurry
14-year-old Yang Chengliang was born with bright eyes and bright teeth, and has a pungent personality. She had the opportunity to enter the film industry, but she missed the opportunity because of a momentary willfulness. It didn't take long for her to marry a bureaucrat surnamed Luo and go to Changchun with her husband.
At that time, Changchun was the capital of the puppet state of Manchukuo. The bureaucrat surnamed Luo is probably a traitor. Yang Chengliang's married life is not satisfactory, but after all, she has no worries about food and clothing, and she can occasionally send some money to her family.
The stars are shining, and the little sister Poplar shines in the film industry
11-year-old Yang Chengfang was a blessing in disguise. The sisters were busy making a living and sent her to a film actor training class. Although the little girl is young, she was favored by director Wang Ruilin with her natural aura.
Yang Chengfang changed his name to Bai Yang and starred in his first movie at the age of 11. Although it is only a small role, it has emerged. In the next few years, Bai Yang starred in many classic films such as "Cross Street" and "Children of China", and became a hot movie star.
At the same time, Yang Chengye also began to publish articles under the pseudonym of "Yang Mo", and gradually emerged in the literary world. The two sisters, one in the literary world and the other in the film industry, have their own world.
However, the fate of Yang Chengliang, the second sister of the Yang family, is embarrassing. In 1938, at the age of 20, she died mysteriously in Changchun. Some say she was beaten to death by her original mate, while others say she committed suicide by refusing to be pestered by the Japanese. There is no way to verify the truth.
After liberation, Yang Mo and Baiyang's careers went to the next level. Yang Mo's "Song of Youth" has become a classic in the minds of several generations of young people. Bai Yang's sister-in-law Xianglin played in "Blessing" has become a classic image on the screen.
The three Yang sisters can be called the epitome of the fate of women in modern China. The eldest sister Yang Mo has the courage to resist and pursue freedom; The second sister Yang Chengliang is smart and clever, but she has a bad fate; With her talent and hard work, the little sister Poplar broke out of the world in the troubled times.
