Ye and Luo: the tragedy of love and marriage of water under the bridge

Ye Yuqian, a famous painter, was originally named Ye Lunqi. Born in 1907, died in 1995. Tonglu, Zhejiang He studied comics in Shanghai in his early years and published Biography of Mr. Wang and History of Beijing. From the1940s, he turned to Chinese painting, and based on sketching, he created China figure painting, gradually forming a unique painting style with smooth brushwork, exaggerated modeling and rich decorative feeling.

1925 Ye went to Shanghai to make a living by painting advertisements after graduating from middle school. At the age of 23, his parents found him a fiancee and urged him to go back to Tonglu to get married. The bride's name is Luo, and she was born in a noble family in Tongcheng. After the marriage, when Ye was ready to go back to Shanghai, the bride offered to go to Shanghai with him. The mother had to let her son take her daughter-in-law away. After arriving in Shanghai, Luo was a stranger, and his life was still very simple, and he was able to do his duty as a wife. However, after giving birth to Ye's son in the second year, Cai tied the girl's chest because of her feudal consciousness at home, which led to the failure of breast milk after giving birth to the child, so she had to ask the wet nurse to take care of the child. Four years later, she gave birth to another daughter, which is still the case. In this way, Cai became a wealthy family. All the housework is done by the wet nurse. Playing cards or shopping every day, paying attention to style and dress, the cost of living is becoming more and more unbearable. Over time, Ye felt that he and his wife lived in two extremes: he wanted to make progress and keep making progress in his career; The wife, on the other hand, is content with the status quo, spends a lot of money, only knows how to eat, drink and be merry, and has no idea about his career and pursuit. The emotional gap is becoming more and more difficult to fill.

1935, five years after marriage, while Ye was worried about her marriage tragedy, a female painter, Liang Bobo, broke into her inner world. At that time, Ye was the editor of Time comics and met a woman who came to contribute. The title of her cartoon is "Mom is dressed beautifully and the child is hungry". In Ye's mind, the people who make cartoons are all boys, and have never seen women draw cartoons. This made him think a little differently about this lady. He also thinks that this lady's painting is a satire on his wife Cai and others, which adds to the emotional * * *. Although Bai Liang Bo is not beautiful, he has a good temperament. He became friends with the female painter. During the exchange, Ye learned that Liang Bobo studied oil painting in West Lake Art College and once taught painting in a Chinese middle school in the Philippines. I didn't find a job after returning home. I draw cartoons to make a living. From then on, Ye visited Liang Bobo's residence every day after work. After several trysts, their love and pursuit have made their relationship as irresistible as inspiration.

Just then, a health propaganda vehicle was set up on the Jinpu Railway, and painters were recruited to draw posters. Ye learned the news and signed up for Bo. Every time this propaganda car goes to a big station, health posters are hung to attract the audience, and railway health personnel disinfect the car. The rest of the time also arranged for staff to visit the local area. While working and sightseeing, they also burned their relationship to the extreme. After arriving in Tianjin, all the staff visited Beiping and then collectively returned to Pukou. However, Ye and Bo stayed in Beiping, rented a house and began to live together. Soon, they returned to Shanghai to rent a pavilion and continued to live together. At this time, Ye's Runaway from Home was reported by Shanghai Times, which caused an uproar at that time. Cai-in order to get Ye back, she followed him around like an anti-smuggling policeman.

Once, she sent a wet nurse to follow Ye, "captured" Ye and Bo at Ye's residence and brought them back to Cai's residence. Cai pretends to be the first wife and treats Bo as a concubine. Liang Bobo and Ye unwilling to be humiliated, hiding in Nanjing. Ye painted the overseas history in Beijing for Nanjing, and Liang Bobo painted the cartoon Miss Bee for Shanghai. They are like-minded, care about each other, and inspire and inspire each other in their creation. This kind of cohabitation life is quiet and full of vitality, which is the most comfortable time for them. Roche was not satisfied with her failure. She and her father came to Nanjing and asked Ye to go back to Shanghai with them, and asked Ye to repent and turn over a new leaf. Ye didn't want to continue this marriage relationship, so she immediately filed for divorce. Luo disagreed, but he also felt that the water was under the bridge. With the lawyer's certificate, he made a written separation certificate to ensure the supply of monthly living expenses.

1In August, 938, the Japanese invaders attacked Shanghai on a large scale. Ye joined forces with Zhang Leping and other cartoonists to form a cartoon propaganda team and went to Wuhan. Liang Bobo is the only woman in this team. At first, her interest in work was still very high, but the cruelty of war and the unpredictability of life made Liang Bobo realize the embarrassment of the third role. Once, a relative with Ye came to visit him. This relative is an air force pilot, charming and young, and Liang Bobo has a good impression on her. As a result, she began to associate with air force pilots and alienated Ye. Finally, Liang Bobo left the comic team to seek his own happy life.

After liberation, Ye and Luo Caiyunsheng's son graduated from university, took his mother to Wuxi, and persuaded his mother to handle the divorce formalities with his father. During the Cultural Revolution, Ye was imprisoned in Qincheng Prison, unable to pay Luo's living expenses, so he had to rely on his children to support him. 1970, she suffered from a serious and unbearable disease and died of overdose of sleeping pills.
