The character of Qian Zhongshu and his wife, how to evaluate Qian Zhongshu

Qian Zhongshu and Yang Jiang both studied and worked at Tsinghua University, and their character and academic qualities were regarded as models by Tsinghua people. Professor Xu Baogeng, head of the Department of Chinese at Tsinghua University, said at the meeting: "At present, there is a tendency of intellectuals to 'urbanize', which is a turbid current among intellectuals, and in this context, the most important significance of Mr. Yang Qi's donation of the 'Good Reading' Scholarship is that we can improve our moral cultivation and resist the tendency of philistinization through reading.

Qian Zhongshu is an intellectual I admire from the bottom of my heart, not only because of his genius and achievements, but also because of his character. Since ancient times, Chinese literati have been poor and sour, and they can be as loyal as Qian Zhongshu's family.

When he was 22 years old, he met Mr. Yang Jiang, who was 21 years old, was engaged to Mr. Yang Jiang at the age of 23, married Mr. Yang Jiang at the age of 25 and went to study in the UK on the same ship, and became a father at the age of 27. The family of three helped each other for more than 60 years. In the last 100 years in China, after several social changes, the talented Mr. Qian's family life is indeed simple and warm, from the beginning to the end.

His wife, Mr. Yang Jiang, like him, is also a person who is committed to academic research, and I have read many of her prose essays, which are quiet, serene, humorous, and natural.

I envy Qian Zhongshu and Yang Jiang and his wife, who have common interests and hobbies, an optimistic attitude towards life, and an open-minded ...... regardless of pampering and humiliation

In 1998, Mr. Qian Zhongshu left. On December 21, Mr. Yang Jiang led several relatives and friends to faithfully fulfill Mr. Qian's last wish, without holding any ceremony, without placing flower baskets and wreaths, without hanging couplets and banners, without wearing black yarn and white flowers, and the ashes were cremated and sent to the earth in the suburbs of Beijing for deep burial. Among the clothes Mr. Qian was wearing, there was a hand-knitted shirt by Mr. Yang, and among the trousers he was wearing was a pair of trousers hand-woven by his daughter, Professor Qian Ming.

The whole aftermath was simple and simple in form, and it was more common than the common people, but in essence it was more solemn and grand than some fanfare ceremonies. After sending Mr. Qian away and returning home, Mr. Yang was physically and mentally exhausted, but still very resolute. She said strongly, calmly

Zhong Shu, me, and my daughter, we discussed it, and we didn't leave ashes behind us. I sent him away as Zhong Shu wished, and I completed the task. Zhong Shu doesn't like people to cry about him, so I didn't cry today.

When those present heard this, they were all moved. Everyone felt that Mr. Qian and Mr. Yang were both people who truly saw life and reached the realm of enlightenment.

Xin Ling said: "Traveling like ours is the most experimental way to get a person's character." Travel is the most tiring, the most troublesome, and the time when people are full of their true nature.

Only those who have traveled for a long time and do not hate each other can make friends - and wait, listen to me - the honeymoon after marriage is reversed, and the celebration should travel together for a month, and after a month of boats and cars, the two parties have not seen through each other, dislike each other, have not quarreled and turned their faces, and they have to maintain the original marriage contract, and this kind of couple promises not to divorce. ”

He was a brilliant scholar and writer.

Qian Zhongshu's achievements in the field of literary research are obvious to all, "Guan Cone Chapter" and "Selected Notes on Song Poems" are a proof, "Selected Notes on Song Poems" Some of the poems selected by Qian Lao may not be famous, but they are full of sweetness when they read, and the annotations are also humorous and interesting, which can reflect Qian Lao's humorous personality and extensive knowledge. The pure brother who can seriously select such a seemingly unserious poem into the anthology, I'm afraid that there is only Qian Lao.

Qian Lao is a scholar and writer, a good husband and father in life.

Yang Jiang, Mrs. Qian Zhongshu, whose real name is Yang Jikang, was born on July 17, 1911 and graduated from Soochow University in Suzhou in 1932. From 1935 to 1938, she studied in Britain and France, and after returning to China, she taught at Aurora Women's College of Arts and Sciences in Shanghai and Tsinghua University. After 1949, he worked in the Institute of Literature and the Institute of Foreign Literature of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
