What was the living condition of Meng Xiaodong, a player of the Republic of China, after the death of green gang Daxie Du?

In fact, Meng Xiaodong's love life is rather bumpy. Her love with Mei Lanfang made her suffer for half her life, and it took her nearly twenty years to get together with Du. Although Meng Xiaodong later became Du's fifth wife, Du died after this birthright wife lasted only one year. Fortunately, Du left Meng Xiaodong some money, which made her at least have no major difficulties in life. Finally, she died in Taiwan Province Province at the age of 70.

Meng Xiaodong's relationship with Mei Lanfang and Du Fu.

Meng Xiaodong 1925 When she was 18 years old, Du liked her very much, but later Meng Xiaodong went to Beiping to improve her skills and seek higher development.

At that time, Meng Xiaodong performed frequently in Beijing and Tianjin and often sang with Mei Lanfang. Meng Xiaodong is a green horn and is good at dressing up as a woman. Mei Lanfang is an actress who is good at dressing up as a man. The two performed on the same stage, and the yin and yang were reversed, which achieved good stage effect and won them a great reputation. The wonderful acting career also gave birth to their feelings and brought them together slowly.

Although Du married Meng Xiaodong's good sister as his fourth wife in 1928, he was still infatuated with Meng Xiaodong. Meng Xiaodong didn't really Du Like Yuesheng. Before Meng Xiaodong left Shanghai for Peiping on 1925, Du tried to get close to her, but Meng Xiaodong was unmoved. After Meng Xiaodong went to Beiping, the contact between the two was not very frequent, and the horizon was separated. Du could only look at acacia. At that time, all Meng Xiaodong's thoughts were on Mei Lanfang, so Du could only be called unrequited love.

At that time, Mei Lanfang actually had a family, but Mei Lanfang seemed to have a commitment to Meng Xiaodong, so she followed Mei Lanfang wholeheartedly. But then Mei Lanfang and Meng Xiaodong separated. Some people say it's because of Mei Lanfang's problem, that he broke his word and abandoned Meng Xiaodong.

It is also said that the relationship between the two was destroyed by gossip because Mei Lanfang's Meng Xiaodong suitor was killed, and finally they reluctantly separated. However, whatever the situation, Meng Xiaodong is a heavy blow to Mei Lanfang. Later, he went to Tianjin to convert to Buddhism, no longer participated in any performances, and decided not to meet Mei Lanfang for life.

1936, Meng Xiaodong's mood improved. At this time, Du invited Xiaodong Meng to cut the ribbon for his golden grand theater, and took part in some subsequent performances. Meng Xiaodong agreed. During the performance, Yao Yulan invited Xiaodong Meng to live with him in the apartment on the 8th floor of Jinjiang Hotel/KLOC-0. Because of Du Yu's husband-and-wife relationship, he frequently went in and out of Jinjiang Hotel's residence, and gradually became familiar with Meng Xiaodong.

But their feelings at this time can only be limited to friends, because Meng Xiaodong is helpless about love at this time and has been living in the shadow of his previous feelings. It is almost impossible for Du to find any opportunity. But Du didn't give up. Meng Xiaodong later went to Beiping for development. Du often writes to him and sometimes sends some gifts and money to help Meng Xiaodong tide over the difficulties.

Although living in Peiping under the Japanese invaders, Meng Xiaodong still showed excessive talent and great perseverance in artistic pursuit, and she became a famous master of traditional Chinese opera. Because Du himself is an opera lover, he prefers Meng Xiaodong.

After Japan surrendered, Du returned to Shanghai. He asked his accountant Huang to write to Meng Xiaodong, urging her to return to Shanghai quickly. Although it was not the first time Du urged Meng Xiaodong, Meng Xiaodong didn't shirk it this time, because the Japanese had been beaten away, and she couldn't find an excuse to refuse Du's kind invitation. In addition, she really missed marrying with herself, so Meng Xiaodong returned to Shanghai with the support of Du.

Du Yuesheng decided to launch the strongest offensive against her. On the one hand, he showed due respect and sympathy to Meng Xiaodong. On the other hand, he asked Yao Yulan to be caring and attentive to Meng Xiaodong, and made a lasting and secret ideological work for her. Finally, Meng Xiaodong finally felt the long-lost warmth from Du He, and her lonely heart seemed to find support again, so she decided to commit herself to Du.

However, due to some reasons, the two did not hold a wedding at that time.

1949, Du Dai and Meng Xiaodong settled in Hong Kong. At this time, Du was old and weak, and was ill in bed for a long time due to illness; Besides, Du's family expenses are high and his income in Hong Kong is limited, so his life is much less than that in Shanghai before.

At this time, Meng Xiaodong had to shoulder the heavy responsibility of serving Du, because Du, who was terminally ill, could not do without Meng Xiaodong's comfort. Although Meng Xiaodong doesn't like many people and things in Du family, she doesn't want to see or listen, but she is doing her best. She hopes to cherish this feeling from Du.

1950, Du Yuesheng's family planned to move to France. When preparing their family passports, Du Yuesheng calculated that they needed 27 passports. Meng Xiaodong suddenly said, I'll go with them. A girl or a girlfriend? This sentence deeply touched Du. Yes, this woman has no birthright so far, which is her own fault.

That evening, Du dragged himself out of bed, went to heaven and earth with Meng Xiaodong, and officially married. Meng Xiaodong, who was proud all his life, finally took the initiative to become someone else's wife, and finally had a formal birthright and a final destination. However, on August 195 1 day, Du died of illness. Meng Xiaodong and Du's formal marriage life is only one year.

Xiaodong Meng's life in Hongkong after Du's death.

Before going to Hong Kong, Du sold his property in Shanghai, with about 600,000 property. After arriving in Hong Kong, due to the large population and high family expenses, although some friends helped me, I can't live lavishly in Shanghai as before. In addition, some of Du's investments in Hong Kong have also lost money, and he himself needs money to treat diseases. Therefore, the economic situation is actually very worrying, and he can only wait for nothing.

When he married Meng Xiaodong, Du invited the chef of Kowloon Hotel to rent a house in Kennedy Terrace to cook more than a dozen dishes, invited friends over for dinner, and asked his son and daughter-in-law to call Meng Xiaodong Mommy on their knees. Eating costs a lot of money, and Meng Xiaodong's watches and suits for his children are also a big expense, which is already the most extravagant expense of the Du family in Hong Kong. If you were in Shanghai before, it would be a piece of cake, with a larger scale and more expensive gifts.

195 1 year, Du wrote a will before his death, allowing his four wives, eight sons and three daughters to share their property. Incredibly, Du, who was once rich, left his wife and children only about 1 1 10,000 dollars, which is far from his previous net worth!

Du told his family before his bed that he had saved $6,543,800. He used the money to buy stocks and made some money, about $6,543,800+0,000.

According to Du, the money was divided equally among his wife and children in principle, but Xiaodong Meng finally got $20,000. Before he died, Du took out $7,000 hidden under his pillow and gave it to Xiaodong Meng for $3,000, so Xiaodong Meng finally got $23,000. For Meng Xiaodong, the money was a huge sum at that time, so she would have no problem in her life for a long time.

After Du's death, his wives went their separate ways. Some went to Taiwan Province province and some went abroad, but Meng Xiaodong chose to stay in Hongkong. She moved out of her home in Kennedy Terrace and lived in an apartment in Causeway Bay.

In the following days, Meng Xiaodong still made some progress in the field of traditional Chinese opera, but she didn't take the stage because she stopped taking the stage after following Du. She just brought some talented apprentices and trained them into useful people, and the final result was not bad.

In addition to teaching apprentices, Meng Xiaodong's life is actually relatively stable, because she was forty or fifty years old at that time, so her biggest hobby was watching TV, playing mahjong, going to the park to practice Tai Chi in the morning, and then buying something to eat and cooking for herself. She often wears cheongsam, cloth shoes and glasses, and likes to take her three dogs everywhere. Although the figure is still there, her hair has gradually turned white, and she has gradually turned herself into an ordinary little old woman, completely without the original "winter emperor" demeanor.

But this kind of life, Meng Xiaodong lived very comfortably, and it is also the most suitable life for her. At that time, Meng Xiaodong's position in the opera session was regarded as a master, so she was advised to sing again, but she refused. There are also record companies looking for her to negotiate a record and make a lot of money by singing a few words, but she still refused. Of course, Meng Xiaodong has no problem with money, but she thinks opera should be regarded as an art, not just a tool to make money.

In his later years, Xiaodong Meng did not consume his enthusiasm excessively, but devoted his limited energy to teaching his disciples. It is said that Meng Xiaodong has extremely strict requirements for recruiting apprentices. In addition to talent, she must also be a person who really loves opera and is very determined to be a teacher. Compared with recording or endorsement, the money earned by apprentices is not worth mentioning, but Meng Xiaodong would rather spend his energy on this more meaningful thing.

Meng Xiaodong actually accepted only three real apprentices, namely Zhao Peixin, Qian Peirong and Wu. These three disciples are very filial to Meng Xiaodong and often give her living expenses. Especially Zhao Peixin, because he also does some business, so he gives considerable money. Meng Xiaodong also tested Zhao Peixin's voice, because sometimes he couldn't study beside Meng Xiaodong, so Meng Xiaodong specially recorded the voice and sent it to Zhao Peixin for her to study.

When Xiaodong Meng lived in Hongkong, he and Zhang Daqian were good friends. Meng Xiaodong believed in Buddhism and asked Zhang Daqian to draw a Buddha statue for himself. Zhang Daqian agreed. I often like to go to the opera, so I asked Meng Xiaodong to sing a song for myself. Meng Xiaodong made an exception and sang a long passage. Zhang Daqian visited Meng Xiaodong in Hong Kong many times, and Meng Xiaodong was also very embarrassed. He participated in Zhang Daqian's art exhibitions in Hong Kong many times.

So on the whole, Meng Xiaodong's life in Hong Kong is actually quite good and he is not short of money. He is still doing what he wants to do, and he has some friends of his own, and his life is very comfortable.

Meng Xiaodong went to Taiwan Province Province on 1967, but died unexpectedly on 1976.

1967, Xiaodong Meng is 60 years old. In this year, she made a decision, that is, to settle in Taiwan Province Province.

In fact, it is inevitable to make this decision, because she is old and has many relatives and friends in Taiwan Province Province. When she is old, she will be more lonely, so after writing to her in Yao Yulan and asking her to go to Taiwan Province Province, she decided without much consideration.

However, Meng Xiaodong's trip to Taiwan Province is well known by the opera circles in Taiwan Province Province. They held a big welcome party for Xiaodong Meng. Meng Xiaodong didn't appreciate it very much, but she didn't really want it, because she just went to Taiwan Province Province to enjoy her old age better. For her, fame has long been underestimated. So at the welcome meeting, Xiaodong Meng announced an important event. She said that she would never perform on the stage again, nor would she accept any more apprentices. She just wants to live a simple life. Although many people regret it, most people still respect her decision.

Meng Xiaodong lives in Taipei with Yao Yulan and his children. The couple met in the performance of 1922, then married Jin Lan, became wives, and finally came together. Before Meng Xiaodong became Du's woman, she had frequent contact with Meng Xiaodong. In fact, Yao Yulan is also an important bridge between Meng Xiaodong and Du, and she finally contributed to the combination of Du and Meng Xiaodong. Therefore, Meng Xiaodong and Yao Yulan have deep feelings. It is a happy thing that friends and sisters who have been together for decades can live together in their later years.

Meng Xiaodong's life in Taiwan Province Province is simpler than that in Hongkong. Because she is old, and her daughter (or adopted daughter) has already gone to Ryukyu, Meng Xiaodong's life is mostly in the charge of her daughter Du. She usually walks her dog and raises some flowers. If she is in a good mood, she will practice her voice or sing a few songs to her family. Moreover, Du is very filial to Meng Xiaodong and has a good relationship with them. Du even said that she would be buried with Meng Xiaodong after her death. Therefore, in Meng Xiaodong's later years, Du, like his daughter, made her feel the warmth of her family when she was old.

1976 One day in May, Meng Xiaodong celebrated his seventieth birthday at home. On this day, everyone was very happy and wanted to hear Meng Xiaodong sing a few words. Meng Xiaodong was also very happy and began to sing, but Meng Xiaodong was suddenly blocked with phlegm and finally passed out directly. Although the ambulance quickly sent Meng Xiaodong to the hospital for rescue, she still didn't wake up. Later that month, Meng Xiaodong died and was buried in Shanjia Buddhist Cemetery in Taipei. The cemetery was selected by Meng Xiaodong before his death, and the tombstone reads "Tomb of Madame Dumont".

Meng Xiaodong's life is bumpy, especially in terms of feelings. Many people ask why Meng Xiaodong is the fifth wife of an old man. Actually, I can't fully answer this question. I can only say that Meng Xiaodong knows what she wants. After being with Du, she did live a relatively stable life and found a long-lost warmth in her heart, which is enough.

Facts have proved that although Meng Xiaodong loves Mei Lanfang, it is precisely because of Mei Lanfang that she has been greatly hurt, and this relationship has had a great impact on her life. Therefore, what you like is not necessarily good, what you don't like is not necessarily bad, but what you choose must be suitable for you.
