Many people don't know Zhang Yunhe. Maybe some people know that she is the wife of Zhou Youguang, the father of Pinyin. In fact, born in a scholarly family, the four sisters of the Zhang family are very talented and outstanding. Zhang Yunhe is the second child, and her third sister Zhang Zhaohe is the wife and sister of the famous novelist Shen Congwen. The legendary story of her sisters has been sung by everyone. Zhang Yunhe's father is Zhang Wuling, a modern educator, and his mother is Lu Ying, a Kunqu researcher. Because Zhang Yunhe was not very healthy when she was born, she was thin and lifeless. Her mother thought she had a dead baby and almost threw it away. Later, Zhang Yunhe's figure has been very thin, but she also inherited her father's gentle personality.
When she met Zhou Youguang, Zhou Youguang was a poor boy. At that time, many people were not optimistic about their feelings. However, after meeting Zhou Youguang, Zhang Yunhe's parents thought he was wise and agreed to the marriage. After marriage, they gave birth to a son and a daughter, but the youngest daughter died soon. Zhou Youguang can't be with his wife because of work. Zhang Yunhe leads a hard life with her children alone, and Zhang Yunhe's health is even worse. Shortly thereafter, she was diagnosed with heart disease, and the doctor judged that she would not live beyond 50 years old. However, Zhang Yunhe did not give up, and made a complete health care law for himself. At the age of 90, she is still alive and well. It can be said that she is like Lin Daiyu, but the practice is completely different from Lin Daiyu.
She said she was a standard housewife. After marriage, she and Zhou Youguang supported each other. During her stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Zhang Yun and Zhou Youguang were often not together, and her son almost died. Only with Shen Congwen's help did she get through the difficulties. Zhang Yun and Zhou Youguang spent the rest of their lives together. After nearly 70 years, they passed away peacefully on August 14, 2002, at the age of 93.
