As the name implies, people have been faithful to their first love for 70 years, and they have no regrets when they meet again in their later years.

The picture below is a photo taken in the 1980s. The two people in the photo are Yang Shouyu, a famous embroiderer in China, and Liu Haisu, a painter. Behind this photo is a sad and beautiful love story. Yang Shouyu, formerly known as Yang Shouyu, 1896, was born in a scholarly family in Changzhou. She and Liu Haisu are cousins. They are the same age, only a few months apart. Yang Shouyu's mother Liu is Liu Haisu's aunt. Yang Shouyu is very poor. He lost his father when he was 9 years old, so he lived with his mother in the Liu family. Yang Shouyu had studied embroidery with her cousin, while Liu Haisu was full of painting talent since childhood. They often paint together, so the adults invited a tutor to teach them to paint. Soon after, 14-year-old Liu Haisu lost his mother, and the two children who admired each other lived together day and night, and gradually developed feelings. In a blink of an eye, they reached marriageable age and should have kissed each other. However, Liu Haisu's father asked someone to tell a fortune and found that Yang Shouyu and Liu Haisu were not harmonious. At that time, the elders were superstitious, so their feelings were opposed by their families. At the same time, the Liu family made an engagement for Liu Haisu and Miss Jia Lin, the daughter of Danyang Lins Bank. Yang Shouyu was heartbroken at the news of his cousin's engagement. In order not to affect Liu Haisu's later life, she left Changzhou with her mother to study abroad. 16-year-old Yang Shouyu changed her name to commemorate this innocent love, and changed her precious jade to save jade. Yang Shouyu's name change is also meaningful. She intends to show that she will always leave her loyalty and innocence to Liu Haisu and her beloved cousin. After much consideration, she was heartbroken. She decisively replaced Bo Yu and left her. She thought that God would know her pain in the future. Yang Shouyu is good at embroidery and brilliant. Soon, her talent was appreciated by educator Lv Fengzi. With the help and guidance of Lv Fengzi, Yang Shouyu mastered many embroidery methods, which laid a certain foundation for the later creation of "random needle embroidery". 19 15, Yang Shouyu was invited by Lv Fengzi to teach in Danyang ordinary girls' school. Left Five, Yang Shouyu In that era of "parents' orders, matchmakers' words", Liu Haisu also fought, but in the face of arranged marriage, he was helpless. After the wedding, Liu Haisu ran away from home, looking for the whereabouts of Yang Shouyu everywhere, but there was no news from them, and they never met again. Later, for a long time, Yang Shouyu lost contact with his cousin Liu Haisu. They have their own brilliant careers, but their emotional trajectories are quite different. While Yang Shouyu was learning embroidery methods, Liu Haisu was attacked by public opinion and * * *, because Liu Haisu opened a sketch class for mannequins in Shanghai Art Institute, which many people thought was vulgar and insulting. As a result, many people call Liu Haisu an "art traitor" and an "educational pest". Yang Shouyu, with progressive thoughts, learned about her cousin's situation, challenged worldly ignorance with needle and thread, and embroidered two female nude works, Girls and Goose and Bath. Yang Shouyu's works caused a great sensation in Jiangsu Province in an instant. Yang Shouyu really kept her virginity, never married, and died alone. Yang Shouyu devoted all her enthusiasm to her embroidery career and worked tirelessly to teach people all her life. She trained and brought up a large number of artistic talents and made great contributions to the embroidery cause in New China. She suggested that embroidery, like painting, can freely express the author's thoughts and feelings. After liberation, Liu Haisu had the opportunity to invite Yang Shouyu to Shanghai to engage in embroidery research. Yang Shouyu is a man of self-esteem. Considering that Liu Haisu has a family, she politely declined the invitation. Speaking of Yang Shouyu's cousin Liu Haisu, he has been married four times in his life. His four wives are Zhang Yunshi, female model of art school, social butterfly and female disciple Xia. They are all excellent women. However, what is buried in the deepest part of Liu Haisu's heart is his unforgettable memory of his cousin Yang Shouyu. 1980, the two old people have been separated for nearly 70 years. This year, Liu Haisu returned to Changzhou, his hometown after a long absence. He followed the staff to his cousin Yang Shouyu's house, but Yang Shouyu was so proud that he thought he was old and faded that he refused to meet Liu Haisu. After Liu Haisu left, Yang Shouyu regretted not seeing Liu Haisu. She contacted the staff and went to the red house near the park where Liu Haisu lived. Childhood friends who have never been together meet again. Yang Shouyu said: "We are all old!" At this moment, Liu Haisu patted the back of Yang Shouyu's hand and said, "We haven't seen each other for decades. How time flies! " After that, he froze in boundless meditation. Under the reminder of others, they didn't go indoors. After the photographer took photos of Liu Haisu and Yang Shouyu, many people quit and let the two old people speak freely ... Although the reunion at this time has long since passed, Yang Shouyu has no regrets after meeting. A few months later, Yang Shouyu died at the age of 86, and Yang Shouyu, as the name implies, really led an honest and clean life. There is no doubt that Yang Shouyu is using her life to protect her first love, which is the only love in her life. Childhood friends, childhood friends, the age of the seed of love, it is undoubtedly the happiest thing to meet his true love, but the happiest feelings have never been together, which makes people feel extremely sorry and sigh.
