historical background

Song's ancestors live in guluyuan village, ChangSa Town, Wenchang City, Hainan Province, about 80 kilometers away from Haikou and 30 kilometers away from Wenchang county.

Approaching the ancestral home of the Song family, I saw a four character plaque inscribed by Deng Xiaoping hanging on the lintel. In the room are displayed items used by Song Qingling's grandparents and fathers, such as plows and harrows for farming, buckets and buckets for carrying water, and pots and stoves for cooking. On the wall are photos of Song Qingling's ancestors, great grandparents and grandfathers, genealogies and some historical introductions.

According to the introduction, this huge Song family was originally named Han. Song Qingling's Gaozu is Han Ruxun, his great grandfather is Han Jinyi, and his grandfather is Han Hongyi. He used to live in luodouwupo village, Wenchang City. Han Ruxun, the Gaozu, moved to guluyuan village. Since then, three generations of Han Ruxun, Han Jinyi and Han Hongyi have lived and worked here.

Han Ruxun's ancestral home was built in the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty. It is of brick and wood structure. It is located from the southwest to the northeast. It is composed of two main rooms, two horizontal rooms, two gatehouses and courtyard walls. It covers an area of more than 1500 square meters and has a building area of about 200 square meters. It is a traditional local farmhouse.

How did the Han family become the Song family? According to the genealogy on the wall, Han Hongyi, Song Qingling's grandfather, had three boys, namely Han zhengzhun, Han jiaozhun and Han zhizhun. The ancestors of the Han family have always been engaged in farming and lived a hard life. In 1875, when Han jiaozhun, Song Qingling's father, was 12 years old, he and his brother, Han zhengzhun, went to the United States with their uncle to make a living. Later, he was adopted by his uncle as his adopted son. From then on, he changed his family name to song Jiashu, named yaoru. Later, he gave birth to three men and three women, all of whom were born under the surname song, followed by song ailing, Song Qingling, Song Ziwen, Song Meiling, song Ziliang and song Zian. The six brothers and sisters of the Song family have all become famous figures in the modern history of our country. Among them, Song Qingling, the "second young lady", can be called a hero among Chinese women.

Since 1921, Soong Ching Ling helped Sun Yat Sen reorganize the Kuomintang and supported the three major policies of "uniting Russia, the Communist Party and supporting agriculture and industry". After Sun Yat Sen's death, she insisted on Sun Yat Sen's revolutionary position, inherited Sun Yat Sen's will, and fought resolutely against the Kuomintang rightists and Chiang Kai Shek. She attended the International Conference of the alliance against imperialism twice and was elected honorary president of the conference and one of the main leaders of the world anti fascist Committee.
