Changzhou is a historical and cultural city, known as the "three Wu city," "Eight Yap were both" reputation. LiuXiaoMan Zhangcun ancestors of the original in Changzhou. Qing Xianfeng, Tongzhi years, LiuXiaoMan grandfather Lu Rongchang for avoiding "Long Hair" (ie Taiping) moved to Shanghai rebellion. LiuXiaoMan father Luzi Fu (1873-1930), the word Ministry of Health, for his intelligent little time, each exam will be, the elders so he renamed the land for the setting. Lu will also word Jing, Building No. 3, Late Exams, Waseda University graduate, is the Japanese name with a proud disciple of Ito Hirobumi. Studying abroad in Japan, participated in the Sun Yat-sen's Revolutionary Alliance. Early Years Ren Yuan president, he had ordered the arrest of the land set and many other League members.

She also specializes in hand Meticulous, LiuXiaoMan addicted painting, by its profound impact on the mother. "Xiao-Man" should also come from the mother.
Wang Geng marriage
1922, Lu Xiaoman 19 years old, handsome, pleasant face looked, the more noticeable body graceful, Painting, out come more beautiful. In that year, she left school, and Wang Feng Geng parents married life. But in marriage, the LiuXiaoMan a boat like the sea was rough jogged, completely passive. When the honeymoon excitement calmed down, she gradually found myself not happy, she feels between himself and Wang Geng has a great temperament and loving the difference. Married the third year, Wang Geng was appointed police chief in Harbin, Wang Geng Xiaoman accompanied to go to Harbin LiuXiaoMan live on for a while. As was said to LiuXiaoMan capital of the society who were full, so she went to Harbin, the Harbin plastered around the streets of her poster. LiuXiaoMan lived in Harbin are not used, however, not many, living on her family back to Beijing, and Wang Geng two separated, and is therefore more emotionally indifferent husband had. As nature does not vote, get married six months later, the two estranged become undeniable. But LiuXiaoMan Xingaoqiao, absolutely refused to let people know she is a frustrated person, was an unhappy person. She lived a concealed nature, Ren Lei smirk life. It is in this mentality, like extraterrestrial Xu, broke into the LiuXiaoMan heart.
Xu and Zhang Youyi Feng their parents or married, deeply felt and his wife, lack of feeling. Zhang Youyi really is a virtuous, competent, caring woman, but not suitable for such a romantic poet Xu. March 1922, Xu and Zhang Youyi divorce in Berlin.
As LiuXiaoMan and Hsu met the occasion, general reference is at the ball. Both of them, one is My Fair Lady, feelingly; one southern wit, handsome; one is exposed flowers with roses, one is lyric poetry, firewood run into the fire, how could burst and fall in love? Since then, Wang Xu became a frequent visitor. As Wang Geng focus on work and future Xiaoman want to play, he said: "I did not empty, is called Shima accompany you play with me." When Xu to invite the couple to go out, he said: "I Today was busy, called Xiaoman Qupei play with you. "Geng Wang would not have thought of this deal will have a marital crisis. In this way, Xu and Wang Geng Lu Xiaoman approval of the favorable situation to play with. They tour the Great Wall, visiting the bridge, the arrival of Lai Jin Yu Xuan tea leaves to the Western Hills point of view, extremely busy! Xiaoman like playing cards, playing cards with her on the Shima; Xiaoman like to listen to opera, Shima to accompany her to listen to opera; Xiaoman like painting, Shima give her the Beijing famous painting. So that you accompany me, and I accompany you, Langcainvmao, psychological fault, inevitably, affective. So, Lu Xiaoman in love with Xu is in when? Xu described LiuXiaoMan had been his soul shaking things: "Tonight I ask you in the True Light has in mind for the first time last year, the theater that you wiped my face and curly hair (I send a poem to commemorate Hailar It came under sharp senses, I can not forget). "Xu was a great poet, in the process of falling in love with Lu Xiaoman he left many popular love poem. Such as "flowers of happiness Office," "spring reborn," "a dark color of the Road" Monument to the "Florence of the night" and so on. This time, Lu Xiaoman almost a source of Xu's poem. Xu said: "I nourish the soul poetry all depends if you, you have to hold my soul like a mother holds a child poems like, you have to give him the cold he wore, he was hungry you have to feed him food - - have your love for him to worry about hungry and not afraid of cold, have your love life he had! "Xiaoman lovers of the arts, on the Shima such a such a talented poet of nature in great respect, so often to consult him on some literary things. Two like-minded, common language, better conversations are enriched, and gradually have an affair. Wang Geng was transferred to Harbin after the chief of police, Shima Xiaoman contacts with more, and make them deeper and deeper feelings. LiuXiaoMan the original has made waves in the hearts of calm, although her husband is highly educated, but, overall, was a military man, do not understand women psychology, would not discuss what they like. For her kind Shima opened a window --- a beautiful romantic love poems to the poet to write, a handsome romantic wit, more difficult is that he can read Xiaoman painful and deep inside the world. Xiaoman shocked, she thought: "This is the ideal companion in my mind. However, we met at the time should not be met." She caught the infinite sadness.
Soon, Lu Xiaoman and Wang Geng has been a serious dispute. That day, Tang Ying (Young Lady of Shanghai names the door. I had had a "Southern Tang Hokuriku," the said, referring to the South Shanghai with Tang Ying, the North in Beijing LiuXiaoMan, are known in two to glamorous.) Please the couple to eat. Wang Geng something, and told them to go out with Xiaoman not dance alone. Xiaoman hearing this, a little mood was. When her colleagues about her going out dancing, she did not immediately agree. Some people jokingly said: "We always thought that by the Qing (Wang Geng's number) fear Xiaoman Who knows Xiaoman so afraid of him, afraid to go alone with us." Collage, pull her to walk out. Just to be on the car when the car reached the home happened to Wang Geng door, see Xiaoman not listen to him, face crimson with anger, loudly scolded her: "You are not the people, got a deal, then count." Guests around see this situation have slipped away, she was pulled into the home of Wang Geng go. LiuXiaoMan in front by Wang Geng of abuse, can not help but anger and hate, the next day to find her, clamoring for non-returned to Beijing can not, do not claim back the next Wang, ready to serve both old and die from. In this case, the mother and daughter returned to Beijing. LiuXiaoMan in Shanghai by Wang Geng told the father abused in public matters, land will hear a very angry, expressed support for her daughter's actions. But the mother strongly disagreed daughter and Wang Geng divorce, for this matter and the family often do not.
Xu returned to Beijing after finding Liu Haisu. Liu Haisu deeply difficult subject, it is 20 years of the 20th century Chinese ah, but the human is man of the triangle, how to deal with? Xu see his hesitation, said: "Hai Su, this continues to be unhappy Xiaoman is bad, she is so bitter, the body will collapse of interests." Touched Liu Hai-su, who was also dissatisfied with the feudal marriage at home fled out; say Liu Hai-su has responsibility as the anti-feudal, in Chinese painting, known as "treason" known for years Eve party, the young blood, and, Lu Xiaoman also be his students. He saw two men so painful, so I agreed to do some work.
Departure day, in addition to Hu, Xu, there are many professors and scholars in Beijing have come to both hands Xiaoman boudoir ladies mother and daughter. Liu Hai-su see so many celebrities to send Xiao-man, they see Xiaoman brilliant appearance, Shima on quietly: "You can get such a lover, it is not simple blessings ah!"
LiuXiaoMan know that the intention of the banquet, but the U.S. Huicong Ying, she is very tolerant about, look graceful. She does not deliberately look Shima, Shima, she can not let too carried away; she has been the lack of rain although Wang Geng affection, but in this occasion, she definitely will not let her husband have embarrassed feeling. She is elegant, somewhat shy and say hello, sit down with my mother to say a few whispers, and graceful. While serving, and Liu Hai-su just call you eat, it touches the sea Zhang Xin, could not, directed at Liu Hai-su and asked: "Hai Su, you are the 'Art traitor' in the end asked us to why? You that snake oil is what drug ah? "
He continued: "So my idea of marriage is: couples should be based on equality of personality, emotional harmony, mutual understanding basis. The wife not the husband of embellishment, the wife should be her husband's soul mate, 'three from the four virtues' of the era gone! "Liu Hai-su and use more to effort, he raised his glass:" Come on, we wish the world couples have happy marriage! Cheers! "
"Kutokuhayashi" After dinner, Shima, Xiaoman are anxiously waited for news. Xiaoman particular, every time I see her husband did not dare look at him. Geng Wang is strange that no more than her speech, as the topic of the banquet, they did not re-started between husband and wife discussed. LiuXiaoMan watched her husband is no movement, but also some dislike him, it seemed, she was too optimistic, the world is absolutely no effort to do so, sometimes not guess what he was thinking about it?
So, after a very boring two months, this time Wang Geng look busy, and I feel very irritable. Once, he Xiaoman hair on fire for no reason to, Xiaoman feel very aggrieved.
Wang Geng concluded: "You do not cry, I love you, but I'm usually not concerned about you, which is determined by my character. You are the artistic type of person Shima, certainly congenial, I wish Shima after you and get happy. "At the end, he added:" I will in a few days after the procedure to run the. "LiuXiaoMan only cry, do not know because of grief or because of unexpected happiness. But the happiness does not come a few days, LiuXiaoMan caught up in heavy dilemma. The way it is. Geng Wang promised to divorce her soon, she suddenly found itself with Wang Geng flesh and blood. This finding her great pain: If born, she will be difficult and Wang Geng divorced and are unable to integrate and Xu, a year of hard work will be in vain; if destroyed, they felt sorry kids Sorry Wang Geng. At that time, her mother insisted she take the baby down, but LiuXiaoMan thought, not born from the marriage means. Wang Geng finally agreed, though not yet signed on paper, but things have to hope that this is her long-awaited Shima. To consider again, for love and freedom, Lu Xiaoman chosen abortion. And she decided not to tell Xu, Geng Wang does not allow that, the bitter fruit of a person only by their own taste. She secretly had brought a personal maid, a German doctor to find an operation and, externally, lied in poor health for some time to rest. Did not expect surgery is failure, depressed from the body, not only unable to bear children, and a couple life will swoon over. Marriage, birth of a baby like Xu, Lu Xiaoman despite the pain in heart, but she could not tell hidden secrets, but replied: "You do not have A Huan yet?" It is precisely for LiuXiaoMan has been unable to bear children, so she was particularly fond of recognition Dry daughter.
Although Lu Xiaoman and Wang Geng divorced, but she and Hsu marriage or sometime both of her remarriage suffered strong pressure. First LiuXiaoMan mother. Master Lu has not agreed between the daughter and Xu, Geng Wang signed the divorce agreement is LiuXiaoMan father carrying her run. Wu Manhua very angry afterwards. So the old argument with a couple, after persuasion by friends and relatives settled.
Second, the Beihai Park in Beijing Library auditorium wedding.
Xu Shen, such as ease immediately asked her: "Young Miriam, you and Shima divorce is that true?"
At that time, Xu happy like a child, stood up towards his ex-wife said: "Thank you." Finished ran to the window, put his arm as if to embrace the world like. Never thought about the ring in his hand from flying out the open window, Shima became frightened expression suddenly fall, because that is LiuXiaoMan engagement ring given to him. Hsu immediately went downstairs, Zhang Youyi Seen from the window, saw Shima After asking is can not find the ring. Zhang Youyi feel at this time to lose the ring, seems to indicate Xiaoman Shima and what will happen between.
Second, the marriage must be made by the referee Hu Shi, Liang witnesses, or non-recognition;
"You hear LiuXiaoMan following what?" Xu Shen also speak as, "After dinner, we are preparing for upstairs break, LiuXiaoMan turned and said another pitiful: 'Shima, hold me upstairs'."
Shanghai is a city LiuXiaoMan the longest life, her life in Shanghai can be divided into three stages, each stage in LiuXiaoMan mood is different. From birth to 7 years old in Shanghai to Beijing before the first of her career, when not off her childlike, sweet innocent, is the apple of their parents. 1926, and married to Xu Ning Xia Shi in Shanghai before a short stay in Shanghai for her second handshake, that although time is short, but LiuXiaoMan hearts are painted honey, because there is a hard to wait around and the pursuit of a partner. This time because of the war moved to Shanghai from Haining LiuXiaoMan died until the time for 38 years, is LiuXiaoMan decadent, sad, rose up in an important period. Among them, 1927 to 1931, a stage before the accident Hsu, when her life is a luxury and laissez-faire; Xu 1931 to 1949, after the accident for the second stage, she was subjected to severe vibration, people become passive and quiet; after the liberation of the third stage, her feet back, a new life. LiuXiaoMan to Shanghai gradually obsessed with nightlife, because at that time, Shanghai was under the colonial rule of miles foreign market, the foreign concessions, the beautiful room, trendy products, plush ballroom theater, elegant communication sector ... ... all of the singing and Dancing, good at communication and pent LiuXiaoMan, it is a new world, she look like a duck. She make celebrities, famous actor, frequent access to social networking sites. As she was originally a society of celebrity Beijing, has become the famous poet's wife, another stunning beauty, and soon became the central figure of Shanghai society.
Show and big, the cost of natural increase. Pampered LiuXiaoMan, in the past is out in Beijing, will be spending the name of Miss. After marriage, her desire to increase the material.
As LiuXiaoMan the disease, such as Xu Shen's refusal to accept, because the erosion of opium and many other reasons, LiuXiaoMan become more Jiao Yong, lazy, fun, muddy fall in love without the passion of the original, it seems no longer a spiritual woman. Afternoon before she had to get up every day in the bathroom where Monong an hour, then eat. Afternoon painting, writing letters, meeting visitors. Most of the evening was dancing, playing cards, listening to opera. Xu were delighted to make his wife, it blindly accommodate her. Although the verbal warning is often euphemistically LiuXiaoMan, but with little effect. Later, the father of Xu Shen Xu LiuXiaoMan as out of extreme dissatisfaction with the couple in the economy make a clean break. Hsu money from her father is unrealistic, therefore, he had the same time, Guanghua University, Soochow University, the University of three large summer school lectures, after-school also finish the poem, to earn royalties, even if this is still not LiuXiaoMan profligacy. LiuXiaoMan most of those years is indeed abandoned. In the crowd, the dance floor, at the banquet, in Yanta, in men and women compliment the sound, the time sent away gently.
Wengrui afternoon, the people
Wengrui afternoon, Jiangsu Changshu people, Weng Qing emperor, grandson of the teacher. Wengrui afternoon in career success, all walks of life and reputation, of course, can not be compared, and Xu, but he has a personality advantage. Xu wife returned to Shanghai from Beijing soon after met with Wengrui afternoon, and often stopping by to get together and mountain lake. His words were true north, it will be sweet words, people active and very funny. He loves singing, painting, but also learn to teach LiuXiaoMan opium, and Lu Xiaoman can say mean congenial. The Hsu is not like singing, but also against LiuXiaoMan opium. LiuXiaoMan nature of beauty, both happy and painting, Wengrui afternoon, tells, often donated paintings sleeve to Bo his favor; and Hsu Although LiuXiaoMan have big love, but he would send poetry, and will not vote in mainland opt to send a few good paintings to her. Slowly, Wengrui afternoon LiuXiaoMan friends on account of the rather special status. Geng Wang Xu has not learned the lessons of the original work is busy as Wang Geng, often invited to accompany Hsu LiuXiaoMan play, it touched off a storm of circumstances to Xu and Lu Xiaoman. Now, Xu pulling Wengrui afternoon to participate in their travel between husband and wife, no doubt is a big miscalculation. Wengrui afternoon and further Lu Xiaoman LiuXiaoMan close is due to the disease.
According to Chen Ting Shan "Chunshen old news" set: "LiuXiaoMan weak, even to sing two days of play will relapse, got syncope syndrome. Wengrui afternoon Marketer massage stunts, is the lineal Ding Fengshan, he LiuXiaoMan massage, really Shoudaobingchu. So Weng and Lu Luo Ru between the often half-solutions, Cherish the chance to stroke. "LiuXiaoMan in Wengrui afternoon massage treatment to her when he asked:" Rui afternoon, you give me a massage to be effective, but when you can not always engraved with me ah, you're not, when if I disease, then what do? "Wengrui afternoon thought for a moment, on the LiuXiaoMan said:" There is a way, but this approach is no way to approach, not a last resort is well used. "LiuXiaoMan even ask what methods, Wengrui afternoon said:" opium. "LiuXiaoMan one is this bad idea, they cursed Ruiwu harm. Subsequently, however, see Wengrui afternoon has been smoking, and a lot of flavor, but it is always fall ill, temporarily losing control, slowly sucking on the. She knew that this is a bad habit, but once addicted, they can not control himself. Both she and Wengrui afternoon, often together in the living room on every other lamp and pillow Yanta, puff.
Shima north
Xu mother's death, the father not to LiuXiaoMan door Xu
April 1931, Xu mother was seriously ill, Xu back to visit. As Hsu's father and the deteriorating relationship between LiuXiaoMan, Xu Shen, such as would allow LiuXiaoMan years, said that if Lu Xiaoman to his left. Xu was very angry, because of the onset of maternal illness inconvenience. A few days later, Xu Shen Xu as they called to say the mother was seriously ill, so quickly go back to Shima. Hsu asked: "Xiaoman how to do?" Xu father said: "and slow, you first a few words to comfort her now!" Actually still do not want the land back. Soon, Xu mother passed away, LiuXiaoMan hastily rushed Haining Kip Stone, this is her third trip to Haining. But Xu's father would not let LiuXiaoMan enter the house, she had to stay in a hotel Kip Stone, on the same day back to Shanghai. And Zhang Youyi has to dry her daughter's name at the funeral. This matter has LiuXiaoMan considerable blow, she felt she did not point position in Alex, anti-less divorced Zhang Youyi, it is humiliating to her. Hsu LiuXiaoMan immediately to write, to express their anger and frustration: "My bully you, which is bullying me. It is true that I can not protect my wife, and can not protect themselves. I regret melancholy was not on speaking terms that, together with the source of injustice, that is my father, I contradict a few that night, he went crying to the soul. "Even so, this thing has more or less affected LiuXiaoMan and Xu Shima's relationship to the already tense relations between them more cast a shadow layer always erase.
Poets die
In early November 1931, Lu Xiaoman difficult to maintain due pomp in Shanghai, Xu urged South continuous cable back. November 11, Hsu Chang Hsueh-liang's plane flew aboard Nanjing, Shanghai on the 13th back home. Unexpectedly, the couple met on a quarrel. One reason is more complex, according to Yu recalled: "At the time LiuXiaoMan not listen to advice, rage and turning to throw to the pipe to Xu's face, Shima quickly escape, fortunately struck gold glasses fall to the ground, broken glass. "Xu huff bloom leave. 18, Hsu took the early train to Nanjing, to live in any arms race, family. Zhang Xu had intended to take the Ford-type aircraft to Beijing, before leaving, Zhang informing him that because the incident rescheduled. Xu Lin Huiyin night to catch up with the hall at Beijing Union made to the foreign guests on China's ancient architecture of the speech, only the following day, November 19, 1931, can not wait to take up a post plane fly to Beijing. Before boarding, he sent a message to Lu Xiaoman, the letter said: "There Xuzhou fog, headache not want to go, ready to Fan Hu." But in the end he walked. Impact because of fog, aircraft 12:30 in Jinan dangjiazhuang touch near the mountain exploded, a total of three aircraft with Hsu are just 36 sessions, no survivors. LiuXiaoMan 29 years old when he was.
LiuXiaoMan how sad this time to what extent, and even Yu have found it difficult to describe, he said: the greatest sadness that is natural stunned, stiff if the one that looks like Muji, which I had received in the small Manfu people Shima Xionghao the time had ever seen. Followed by the coffin of a cry, which I am in the funeral home nations, many of the day to hang Shima was seen between the relatives and friends. LiuXiaoMan sober, they insisted on going Shandong dangjiazhuang access Shima's body, friends and family to be Quan Zhu of doom. Finally decided to send the son of Xu Kai Xu product (Zhang Youyi born) to Shandong back.
Hsu's death, Lu Xiaoman not out communication. LiuXiaoMan Xu thoughts on the situation, we can from her in Xu's death seen in several articles. In Xu's death more than a month, Lu Xiaoman wrote "cried Mount," the article written in sincere, sad painful leap off the paper: I am sure not afraid of the world come to describe how sad I am now a pen in mind . Do not say I could not move it easily to a branch. But Chu Ci I can not vent my heart full of Resentment chance, I hope the soul of Morocco is also a help to help me, Heaven to me that Charlie's always playing numb I have covered all cry Lianku , mixed (muddy) body only bouts of numbness. Dazed until a few days woke up today, and I know you are really forever. Mount! Slow said you afraid that heaven can not know how I heart the pain, how sad! Used to hear people say "heartbreaking" I always laugh their hypocrisy, I think how people feel heart pain, just fun to talk about this but, who knows I really try for this today waves of colic-like taste of the mind . You know what? I remember when I had a slight discomfort that is as long as you repeatedly in the side of sympathy, cough, and now is killing me even though I have no sympathy you to the humble. Moldova, and you really have the heart to forever abandon of me? You used to not say my last breath you also have to live together before you and I love the love What? Why do not you tell me earlier to fly it? Until now I still do not believe you really fly, I come back here every day, expecting you to accompany me, you quickly will do outstanding things about to join with me to go to the cloud move about, you do not Happy one out and forget their girl and me waiting!
Cheng pulls into a nightmare for the number to five sorrow Huan, hastily be separated by death, of Heaven complex Xi, Yu Si failed to master the old;
After returning from Kip Stone, LiuXiaoMan for poem:
Unforgettable Ruiwu
Although LiuXiaoMan said she Wengrui afternoon "only feelings, no love," but treated her feelings, but also serious and strong, not half-hearted. Was not in favor of her many friends and Wengrui afternoon, this relationship, wanted her to break off diplomatic relations with the Lions. Hu is one of the most important one. LiuXiaoMan she proposed, as long as she broke off diplomatic relations with Wengrui afternoon, after he fully responsible for all. LiuXiaoMan politely refused his request, she said at the time: "Sweden already has the afternoon though poor, but always take care of perhaps twenty years, Wu He wants to turn his times has it?" LiuXiaoMan and Wengrui afternoon with "life" twenty years, there are some feelings, but there are problems. Because Wengrui afternoon did not abandon first wife, you have two take care of.
LiuXiaoMan of the warlords and politicians in particular, disgust, during the rule of the Kuomintang, the KMT's corrupt rule, she is disgusted. During the war, Lu Xiaoman did not leave Shanghai, nor with the "puppet" from. She insisted on an honest, patriotic Chinese position. After the founding of new China, the Lu Xiaoman is, indeed was reborn. She saw China's hope, she thought only the Chinese Communist Party's leadership, can China have a bright future. At that time, she has been half a century old, but she determined to bracing, leaving his sick bed, out of the bedroom for the country, for the people within its capacity to do things. LiuXiaoMan also been the concern of the party and government leaders. Qiao was also said in 1956, in Shanghai, an exhibition organized by the U.S. Association, there LiuXiaoMan of one works in the exhibition. On one occasion, Chen Yi to visit, to see the painting signed "LiuXiaoMan", and asked the people around: "This painting fine! Her husband is not the Hsu? Xu is my teacher." After getting a positive answer Chen Yi LiuXiaoMan surprise surprise, still in silence for many years, and painting the picture so well, asked to know LiuXiaoMan lived in Shanghai, nothing for a living. Chen Yi said: "Xu is a renowned poet, Lu Xiaoman is also a talented woman, such a culture should be to take care of the elderly." Soon, LiuXiaoMan be arranged for the Shanghai Literary History librarian, though a virtual level, but at least there are dozens of pieces per month money to be had, so she had subsistence, but also gave her encouragement and confidence.
"Shanghai Literary History Librarian recorded" is such a record of:
Fall in October 1964, Lu Xiaoman admitted to the hospital, mainly emphysema and asthma. Mid-day, Zhao Qingge buy some moon cake to her, and her nostrils plugged the oxygen tube, emaciated. She gasped on Zhao Qingge said: "can not do anything you think of me, and this year I can eat moon cake, probably next year ... ..." After a while, she whispered: "My days of not much! I am a non- pull no hanging, four walls of the lonely old, is to liberate saved me, or I die soon, and I am grateful to the Communist Party. "Guo Buchu Xiaoman expected, the heavy winter of her illness. Barely wait until late spring 1965, she was coughing all day long, people increasingly thin, and one day, Zhao Qingge they see her, should be field level are also present. She said breathlessly: "I will not be good, and they said 63 is a gateway ... ... Recently, I often dream of Shima, we meet again soon ... ... soon it!" Comfort level to be wild She said: "Do not superstition ! you too love earth now. "After a child, Zhao Qingge inquired:" What do you want me to do for you? "and off she said:" I ... ... I hope to be able and Shima buried after death, you ... ... can not do? "Zhao Qingge Xiaoman to comfort, without hesitation:" I try to think of a way, you recuperate important thing. "LiuXiaoMan smile again and again thanks, Zhao Qingge promises to be a great encouragement to her.
Buried last wish into a pity
Push the only sincere heart, this world and leave behind a legacy of benefits in;
1965 April 2 (Note: should be 3), Lu Xiaoman sleep quietly with a hidden bitterness. She left no will, her last wish is to hope and Shima buried, and this desire I can not do. My old friend Zhang Xiruo her lifetime, Liu Hai-su consult Zhang Xiruo also the home of Zhejiang Kip Stone Shima Department of Cultural Affairs to apply, said that Xu's family - his wife Zhang Youyi the son Kai Xu product - do not agree. In other words, the Chinese feudal social consciousness are not allowed!
