Wife's calligraphy

1986 In May, Sue was sunbathing in the yard with her seriously ill wife, Miko Matsumoto.

The sunshine is very good, and it can reflect warm light when hitting people's faces.

Miki Matsumoto looked back. Although the husband behind him is as white-haired as her, his eyes are always gentle.

On the whole, the time is too long for her. Decades have passed, so many fiery pasts will be buried with her "passing away".

Just like the teenager who proposed to her with Japanese etiquette under the blooming cherry trees. Clumsily promised to be husband and wife for life, but now I have to leave him first.

"My name is Sue, and I come from China."

A young voice echoed in my ears, and time seemed to return to the spring of 1924.

Miko Matsumoto is a student at Tohoku Imperial University in Sendai, Japan. Her father is a famous professor Matsumoto in the school.

As the daughter of a well-known professor, Miko Matsumoto has attracted much attention at school. Only now, there is a new "celebrity" in the school, which is very popular.

Without even asking, Miki Matsumoto easily knew the student's name-Sue. An international student from China.

After listening to many "rumors" about Sue, Miki Matsumoto's heart gave birth to curiosity and admiration.

She wants to meet Sue.

I don't know if God heard her voice. At the end of a party, the Miko Matsumoto finally met Sue whom she had known for a long time.

His appearance is not much different from that of Miki Matsumoto. He is tall and thin, with warm and wise "light" in his eyes.

Two people are walking on a quiet campus road. Miko Matsumoto looked at the person next to her and asked curiously, "Why do you study math so hard?"

In her opinion, mathematics is boring, and she loves music, calligraphy and flower arrangement more.

"Because the development of China needs mathematics." Sue stopped and looked at the woman's ignorant sight, and her eyes were more correct.

"At first, I also thought that listening to music and dancing in mathematics was boring. But when you associate mathematics with national luck, you will find how rich and attractive this field is. I am willing to like math for my country. "

Miko Matsumoto was stunned. She has heard all kinds of reasons for loving mathematics. Today, however, this answer is something she has never heard before.

Love for the country ... what a noble and pure patriotic feeling! Even though she is a Japanese woman, she is moved and shocked by this emotion.

This is the most responsible and ambitious man Matsumoto Miki has seen in more than 20 years. Seeing Sue's firm eyes, Matsumoto Miki couldn't help feeling her heartbeat.

She knew that at this moment, her heart was completely "fallen".

1927, graduate student Su was officially hired as a substitute lecturer in mathematics by Northeast Imperial University of Technology.

The Miko Matsumoto is very happy, because Sue is the first foreign student to be a teacher in school history. It was even called "the brilliant mathematical star rising from the eastern territory" by the Japanese media.

As Sue's girlfriend, she naturally feels proud and happy for Sue's Excellence. However, I don't know when it started, and the voice of "questioning" gradually spread around me.

A former suitor stopped Miko Matsumoto and said, "Sue is a countryman from China, and her family is poor. Even if you study well in the future, you may not have a future. You won't have a good life with him. "

Miki Matsumoto just shook her head: "You won't understand."

In her view, Sue is brilliant and has deep feelings for the country. Outsiders will only judge him and question him from his nationality and family for no reason. I don't understand his mind and personality, nor do I understand their strong feelings before.

To Miki Matsumoto's dismay, her father didn't understand either.

My father said that I can only marry the best among young people in the future. Sue is excellent, but he is not Japanese.

A sentence that countries are different "negates" their feelings.

Miko Matsumoto has never disobeyed her father since she was a child, but this time she had to face her father. For the only love of her life.

Cherry blossoms blew out the girl's windowsill and landed on the desk full of worries.

Matsumoto Miyako looked out of the window in the direction of the wind. For a long time, she suddenly stood up. He ran out without saying anything.

Xia Feng combed her hair and smelled of cherry blossoms all the way.

There is only one thought in Miki Matsumoto's mind: "She is going to see him."

I don't know how many cherry trees I ran, but Miko Matsumoto finally met the man she wanted. I miss you when I can't see you, but I don't know where to start when I see you.

Miko Matsumoto talked about her recent thoughts, her father's obstruction and her classmates' criticism. She doesn't know what she really wants to express, and her heart is anxious and contradictory.

The only certainty is that she doesn't want to be separated from him.

"Let's get married."

The man's clear and gentle voice completely interrupted all thoughts of Matsumoto Miki, and her heart lifted high and fell heavily.

Sue said nothing and looked at her beloved woman tenderly.

Perhaps his eyes are too gentle, or perhaps the cherry blossoms in the sky are too dreamy. Maybe it was Sue who said this.

Miki Matsumoto couldn't refuse at all and didn't want to refuse.

So, in that cherry blossom season. Two young people in love crossed the nation, from love to marriage.

After the marriage, Miki Matsumoto took her husband's surname and changed her name to Sumiko. Like countless Japanese women, she began to take care of her family wholeheartedly after marriage and became a "full-time" housewife.

Sue doesn't think there is anything wrong with such a day, not to mention all her female elders and companions do it.

As far as she is concerned, she is willing to take care of Sue.

The days after marriage are always harmonious and happy.

Sue made more and more remarkable achievements in mathematics and became a "mathematical superstar" at that time.

However, Sue found that her husband had been sighing recently, and it seemed that some troubles were difficult to solve. After dinner, Sue raised her doubts.

Originally, the school wanted Sue to stay, but he went back to China to build a first-class mathematics department and promote academic development in China.

This book was planned before Su studied abroad, and he has been working hard for it. But now that he has married Sue, he doesn't want his wife to leave his hometown because of his ideal.

Sue listened carefully to Sue's thoughts and gently held his hand.

"Green, I support your decision. First of all, I love you, and you love China, so I also love China. I support you to go back to the place we all love, and I will follow you wherever you go. "

I have to say, Sue is really in love with Sue.

And never give up, always accompany the promise, they both did it.

When I first came to China, many places in Su Mi were not used to it.

She doesn't like to eat fermented bean curd because she feels a little dirty. It happened that Sue liked it very much and felt that Sue had missed a top-notch delicacy.

In order to make her fall in love with fermented bean curd, Sue scraped off the top layer of "skin" and added a little sugar according to Sue's favorite taste.

After "improvement", sufu "conquered" Sumitz's taste buds at once. She began to love this dish.

In addition, Japanese people are used to taking a bath every day. In order to solve the problem of bathing, Sue specially asked someone to make a bathtub out of an iron bucket.

In this way, Sumiko can take a bath once a week. Although she is not used to it yet, Sue will only be moved if she looks at her husband who has done his best for her.

It's no problem to wash once a week, she thought. He can tolerate himself and adapt to everything for him.

1On July 7, 937, Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China.

The Japanese plane abused Shanghai, Hangzhou and other places. At that time, Su was a professor at Zhejiang University.

Faced with the crazy bombing of Japanese planes, the school was forced to move for the safety of all teachers and students. But I didn't want to. Sue suddenly received an urgent telegram from Japan.

It turned out that Imperial University of Tohoku in Japan wanted to hire Sue again. Sue was furious when she received the invitation.

In his view, the Japanese invaded China shamelessly. Is now the "enemy" of all China people who want him to serve. That's ridiculous!

This time, the Japanese side naturally refused to give up. An official of the Japanese Consulate in Hangzhou was sent directly to Su's home to persuade him again.

Sue is not at home, and people only see Su Mizi.

"As a Japanese, I wonder if my wife would like to come to the consulate to taste the food in her hometown? We are waiting wholeheartedly. "

This is tantamount to soliciting, Su Mi son know her husband's position, natural won't "run counter to" with him.

Since I married the Soviet army, I have been used to the life and food in China.

Although the tone is weak, it is extremely firm. In her mind, although she is Japanese, she is also "China's wife".

However, this "storm" has not been solved. When the news of Professor Matsumoto's critical illness came, both his wife and Sue were worried.

Just because of the current situation, Sue is not suitable for going to Japan. After much deliberation, Sue can only go back to Sendai.

Sue understands her husband's kindness. He wants to be filial. However, the more this time, the more she cannot leave him.

"I don't go back. Anyway, I support you! Always follow you! "

Between the position of home country and her husband and children, she decisively chose the latter. She just wants to follow Sue.

And this is nearly sixty years.

At that time, the Su family moved westward with the school. After two years of twists and turns, they finally settled down in Guizhou. The war was tense at that time, but the teaching in the school could not be relaxed.

To this end, Sue teaches in a cave and a ruined temple in the city. Students sit on the floor, with branches as pens and the ground as paper, and still study tirelessly.

During this period, Sue always accompanied Sue, never leaving, sharing weal and woe.

1953, Sumiz officially became a citizen of China. This Japanese woman who has lived in China for more than 20 years has already taken root in China.

Sue changed her name to "Su Songben". Sue is the husband's surname and Matsumoto is the father's surname. She achieved the "combination" of different ethnic groups.

1979 One weekend, Sue looked at her wife who was doing housework. I can't help thinking of when they got married.

On the wedding day, she wore a beautiful skirt and walked slowly to herself. At that moment, he only felt that she was the "most beautiful bride" in the whole world.

But it seems that after she married herself, she didn't have so many opportunities and time to dress herself up. All she can think about is the warmth of herself and her children.

When Mingming was young, she liked playing guzheng very much. When we returned to China together, my wife also brought her favorite thirteen-string guzheng.

I thought I could listen to my wife's melodious piano music from time to time, but as a result, she spent all her time on the family's food, clothing, housing and transportation. I can only dust the piano body.

Sue still remembers that once, a student was surprised to see his wife's handwriting.

"Jenny Su's handwriting is much better than Mr Su's."

Yes, his wife used to be a talented woman in the university. Even though she has many shortcomings, she is willing to retreat to her family and keep the "glory of the scenery" for herself.

Without her, he won't achieve anything.

Now, it is time for me to "fulfill" my wife.

Sue gently took Sura to her side: "Now our situation is different, and the children are independent. You should buy yourself a new dress, and ... "

I wanted to refuse Sue's request to buy clothes. When he heard that there was something unfinished in his words, he asked, "What else?"

Sue smiled. "And you should go back and have a look."

"Where to?" Sue didn't respond at the moment.

Sue patted his wife on the shoulder and said, "Japan! Your hometown ... "

Sue's eyes turned red before he finished. Then I couldn't hold it any longer, so I threw myself into his arms and cried.

Decades of homesickness can only be forced to "hide" in my heart. Since there is hope of going back, Sue only feels as if there are endless tears.

Sue held her wife tightly in her arms, feeling all her grievances and sorrows.

After 43 years away from home, Sue finally set foot on the land of her old country with her husband. In her life, she finally has no regrets.

At 1982, Sumitz, who had worked hard all his life, fell ill.

Sue took care of her step by step during her illness. She used to take care of herself in every detail, but now it's time for her to take care of herself.

Sue was lying in a hospital bed, looking back on her life. Although there have been difficulties and dangers, her heart is always satisfied.

If there is anything I can't give up, it's only Sue.

"Lunch is mine, you must insist."

Looking at her husband's helpless expression, Sue nodded her head gently with distress: "I promise you".

She is as firm and serious as when she agreed to marry him.

It's just that manpower can't beat the disease after all. 1May, 986, Sumiko left Su.

Before he died, he left only one last wish. That is, I hope Sue won't be sad and live well.

"I want to know why my Jinse has fifty strings, each with a youthful interval."

After Sue left, Sue hung her favorite guzheng on the wall of the room. Whenever I miss my dead wife, I can't help touching her carefully.

Unfortunately, there are no more women sitting in front of the piano, playing slowly and immersed in classical music.

In order to solve the pain of lovesickness, Sue always takes her photos with her. It feels as if his wife has been with him all the time.

"I am deeply grateful for this sentence that lives in my heart. It's like my wife is still walking in the garden with me, giving lectures in the pulpit and attending meetings together ... "

In March 2003, Mr. Wang passed away.

He "chased" his lover with full thoughts and memories of life.

"Looking at the blue sky opposite Sendai, I am very sad and have no intention of sending me to the grave. After thousands of miles, joys and sorrows have been separated for sixty years. "

Although "slow", these two old people who have been in love for a lifetime will eventually wait for their "reunion".
