Does Song Meiling smoke?

As we all know, Song Meiling's three sisters were born in noble families. They are all elegant, beautiful and intelligent. As a highly educated Song Meiling, she has always been the wife of Chiang Kai-shek. During War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's time, she went to the United States to give a speech alone and received $500 million in aid. She is also a good helper in Chiang Kai-shek's life. Chiang Kai-shek once regarded Song Meiling as his pride, but Song Meiling, who was so smart and decent, had a bad habit that Chiang Kai-shek hated.

Unlike most senior Kuomintang officials, Chiang Kai-shek doesn't like smoking, and naturally he doesn't like people around him to smoke. So, why did Song Meiling smoke against Chiang Kai-shek's habit? There is a reason for this. Song Meiling didn't like alcohol and tobacco when he was young. Her family was a famous family in Shanghai at that time, and no one liked smoking at all. When Song Meiling became addicted to cigarettes in Chongqing, the weather in Chongqing was very humid and it often rained. Song Meiling's skin is very sensitive, and she will get urticaria from time to time. Song Meiling is very uncomfortable because he is itchy all over and the weather is wet.

Sleepless life worried her, and she lived on sleeping pills every day until one day, she found a pack of cigarettes in the pocket of the maid beside her. At this time, Song Meiling also hesitated, but she didn't consider that the pack of cigarettes was inferior cigarettes smoked by the middle and lower classes, so she wanted to smoke one. This is because she found that the pain in the past few days has eased, and she felt a comfort that she had not experienced for many days. She found it a "good medicine" to treat urticaria.

Song Meiling smokes more and more frequently, and people around him begin to know. Only Chiang Kai-shek doesn't know, but he can't wrap the paper. After all, Chiang Kai-shek found out. Chiang Kai-shek was very angry, but his relationship with Song Meiling was that no one was afraid of anyone, so he could only say a few words. But Chiang Kai-shek still regretted Song Meiling's smoking, but the next thing made Chiang Kai-shek really angry and asked Song Meiling to quit smoking immediately.

During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Li Anna jacoby, a famous journalist from Time and Life magazine, came to Chongqing for an interview. Song Meiling, who met her, invited the female reporter to have lunch in an unknown small hotel in Chongqing. During the dinner, Song Meiling suddenly began to smoke. She took out two cigarettes from her small bag and invited American journalists to smoke them. At that time, "Patriotic China" was written on the wall of the hotel. After coming back, the female reporter actually reported that she likes smoking and what she said in front of the propaganda slogan posted on the wall in the bar with the topic "Mrs. Jiang smokes in Chongqing Bar".

Chiang Kai-shek flew into a rage and immediately asked Song Meiling to give up smoking. From then on, Song Meiling never smoked in front of Chiang Kai-shek again!

Although Song Meiling smokes, all she smokes are ladies' cigarettes, which are very fine. The only time she played mahjong, she asked the adjutant for a "August 14th" military cigarette. Later, Chiang Kai-shek fell ill and Song Meiling was in poor health. On the advice of the doctor, she gave up smoking. Later, Chiang Kai-shek died and went to Song Meiling, USA, where she never smoked again and lived to the age of 106!
