What was Yuan Shikai's family life like after he was dismissed from office? Listen to my daughter Yuan.

Yuan Shikai's daughter Yuan Xuejing recalled: "Yuan Shikai has a wife and nine concubines, seventeen sons and fifteen daughters, and several daughters-in-law and grandchildren. There are hundreds of accountants, male and female teachers, Chinese and Western medicine doctors, chefs, tailors, gardeners, male and female servants who are in charge at home, and mothers and maids who run into houses and rooms. So many people should take my father as the center, obey his orders and be at his mercy. Their ups and downs were decided by my father alone. The fate of one wife and nine concubines, the main members of his family, speaks volumes. Some of them like special rooms, while others are left in the cold. The fate of these people depends entirely on his personal likes and dislikes. As for his likes and dislikes, it is hard to say. "

I am Yuan Shikai's original wife. She married Yuan Jia in June 1876. Yu 19 years old, two years older than Yuan Shikai, is a wealthy family in Huaiyang. Yu Jia has a lot of land, about 2,000 hectares. Although the Yu family is a big family, influenced by "a woman without talent is a virtue", she was illiterate from childhood and didn't know much about feudal etiquette, only a rough understanding. After she married Yuan, her feelings were still very harmonious. In the second year after marriage, Yu gave birth to Yuan Shikai's first son, Yuan, the only son in her life. Yuan Shikai and Yu couples have a good relationship, but they are stiff because of a joke. One day, Yuan Shikai was amused to see Yu wearing a red embroidered belt around his waist. He joked with Yu, "Look, you are dressed like a cavalry team." But Yu didn't think it was a joke between husband and wife, so he exposed Yuan Shikai and said, "I'm not a cavalry team, I have a grandmother's family." "I have a grandmother's family" in Yu's words means that he has a maiden, and he was seriously married by Yuan Shikai. However, it is unintentional to say it, but it is intentional to hear it. Yuan Shikai is an unmarried woman, and her mother is Yuan Jia's concubine. Yuan Shikai is a person who is especially filial to his old mother. When he heard Yu's words, he thought he was humiliating himself. In a rage, he never slept with Yu again, and they always maintained a respectful relationship. So, after she gave birth to Yuan, she never gave birth to other children, and became Yuan's nominal wife, neither letting her be a housekeeper nor doing anything. In the late Qing Dynasty, Yu was named Mrs. Yipin.

Yuan Ding is the eldest son of Yuan Shikai's 32 daughters, and Yuan Dingke 18 got married. He married the daughter of Wu Dayou, the governor of Hunan Province, named Wu Benxian. Their marriage is a political marriage. From 65438 to 0907, Yuan became the right senator of the Ministry of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce because of his father. Xuantong Yuan Year (1909), Yuan was promoted to You Cheng. 1909, after Yuan Shikai dismissed from office and returned to his hometown, Yuan Dingke stayed in Beijing, becoming an important eye and ear for Yuan Shikai to inquire about the information of the Qing court in Beijing. Yuan has a kind of "sleeve-breaking addiction", which is called "homosexuality" in modern times. His cousin once recalled: "Ke must have a broken sleeve addiction, and the left and right waiters are young and beautiful. 19 1 1 year, my father always sets up a back-road grain table in Zhangde, and the living room is next to Dink Hall. One night, a boy spoiled Ding Ke. He said, "Don't talk loudly, five people next door can't hear you!" " But my father has heard of it. Zhang Boju also wrote a jingle in "A Supplement to the Poems of Hong Xian", saying, "If there really is a matter of breaking sleeves and parting peaches, flowers will be separated from each other in the backyard. "。 "Be careful not to talk loudly when you are coquetry. Be sure to watch out for the five people next door."

First, menstruation Shen Shi. At the age of 22, Yuan abandoned Wen to join the army and defected. Before that, he stayed in Shanghai for a while. On the one hand, he wants to enjoy the scenery of Shanghai. On the other hand, he thinks there are more opportunities in Shanghai. However, he wandered around Shanghai for a long time and didn't find a suitable position. At that age, Yuan Shikai was a young man in his prime. When he was alone in the hotel, he went to a brothel to have fun. Here, he met Shen Shi, a famous prostitute in Suzhou. After Yuan Shikai and Shen Shi met, they had a very good relationship. Shen Shi thought that Yuan Shikai was by no means a thing in the pool, advised him to leave Shanghai as early as possible to develop elsewhere, and gave Yuan travel expenses. Before he left, Shen Shi bid farewell to Yuan Shikai, saved money to be redeemed and moved out of the brothel. She hopes that Yuan Shikai will not forget this old relationship after his success. Yuan Shikai was deeply moved and vowed never to let Shen Shi down. This is Yuan Shikai's first aunt, Shen Shi. Yuan recalled: "Because she was kind to my father when he was down and out, my father took her to North Korea as his wife when he was an official in North Korea. My father not only made her a housekeeper, but also gave her his eldest brother Ding Ke, who was taken to North Korea, to raise him. So from the big brother, all our brothers and sisters call her mother. Mother's name is second only to mother's. My father let his children call her that, which shows how much he loves her. " Shen Shi had no children, so Yuan Shikai adopted Yuan Kewen, the son of his third aunt's family, to Shen Shi.

Yuan, whose real name is Bao Cen and Bao Jiao, is called Leng Yun. He was born to his third aunt Jin and collected by Yuan Shikai when he was in Korea. 1890 was born in Hancheng, North Korea. Yuan was spoiled by Shen Shi since he was a child, and Yuan Shikai's unrestrained connivance made him a womanizer when he was a teenager. As a teenager, he often went in and out of Qin Lou Chu Guan, Goulan Brothel, Wuxie Restaurant and Huajie Liuxiang, and carried out some romantic activities. Yuan Yu, Zhang Xueliang and Pu Dong, who were born in famous families and held prominent positions at that time, were also called the "four great sons". Yuan has everything from eating, drinking, whoring and gambling to sampling. However, Yuan is extremely clever, has the ability of "never forgetting anything" and has made great achievements in calligraphy, ci, poetry and articles. Yuan Shikai's important letters are sometimes written by Yuan Kewen. For example, the plaque and couplets of Yang Shouyuan in Huanshang Village were written by Yuan. Besides, Yuan has a wide range of hobbies, and he can also sing a good Kunqu opera. At first, I sang raw, but later, because I gave up smoking and gained weight, I changed it to ugly singing. He has close contacts with Beijing Opera artists such as Cheng, Cheng Jixian, Sun Juxian and has deep feelings. Yuan is a bohemian by nature and goes his own way. He is also a famous collector. Antiques, calligraphy and painting, stamps, Song edition books, ancient books. After Yuan had a grandson, he gave an antique every time he was born, and the name also implied the name of the antique. The eldest grandson named Yin Cheng and gave him a golden seal; Sun Juncheng gave him Bega; Third Sun gave Bi Cheng a piece of jade; The fourth Sun Hucheng gave him a pair of tiger charms.

Yuan recalled: "My second brother came to get samples of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. He can sing Kunqu opera and play with ancient money. He collected many foreign gold coins, including those used in various countries and times. They are square and round, big and small, all in a special box. ..... He later went to green gang and spent a lot of money, becoming an' old man' of the older generation. When he has money, he will spend it at will; No money, but I don't care at all. After his death, he only found twenty yuan in the pen container on his desk. He married five concubines in his life. The way he was spoiled was sloppy. The order of these five concubines is: Qingyun Tower, Xiao Taohong, Tang Zhijun, Yu Peiwen and Yaxian. ..... The second brother has only five concubines with names, and it is said that there are seventy or eighty without names. " Yuan later lived in poverty and made a living by selling words. No matter how poor his life is, he still does not change his happiness and his romantic style. In his view, prosperity is just a dream of life. He doesn't sell words for money. There are many papers piled up at home, but he doesn't write them carefully. Only when he really has no money will he choose a few articles to write for money.

In the year of 193 1 year, in February of the lunar calendar, Yuan got scarlet fever and had a high fever, which improved after treatment. But he still didn't change his romantic nature and went to the brothel to fool around. When I got home, I had a high fever again. On March 22nd, I died at the home of Liang Yili in Tianjin at the age of 42. Before his death, Beiyang Pictorial often spent money to collect his calligraphy and painting, and there was quite a market after its publication. After his death, Beiyang Pictorial also issued an obituary specifically for Yuan: "The master is natural and unrestrained, galloping in today's people. Especially for the calligraphy of the poet and Zhang, the winner is regarded as a memorial archway. A good friend, a friend of the whole world, and an old friend of ours. He was in good health and did not get sick at first, but died of sudden illness on the evening of the 22nd. Since then, Yilin has become famous, and one person is missing, which is enough to mourn! " After Yuan's death, his funeral was paid for by his disciples. Attending his eldest disciple, Yang, dressed him in hemp and held a funeral. More than 4,000 disciples and Sun paid tribute to Yuan. During the days when I stopped, I kept crying, and many prostitutes came to pay their respects with white ropes on their heads. On the day of the funeral, besides monks and nuns in Tianjin, monks from Guangji Temple in Beijing and lamas from Yonghe Palace came to see me off. From Yuan's residence to his cemetery in Xigu, many sacrificial sheds were built along the way, and friends from all walks of life came to pay homage. Yuan's funeral was a sensation at that time. Many years later, his good friend Zhang Boju came to Tianjin to look for the mausoleum, which had disappeared. He can only miss his old friend far away, and write an elegy with tears: "The end of the world is reduced, the country is desolate, there is wine and songs, who pities Lao Wangsun, and the new pavilion cries;" The grass is sad, the setting sun is dim, it hurts the body in spring and summer, and it is so beautiful to endure the boundless wind and moon. "

Yuan Yisheng has four sons and three daughters, namely Yuan Jiashi, Yuan, Yuan Jiaji. Both Yuan and He studied in America. Yuan Jiashi died in 196 1. Yuan lived in Washington, USA and worked in the Embassy of Taiwan Province Province in the United States. Yuan Jialiu is a famous physicist in this century, and so is his wife Wu Jianxiong. They are known as the contemporary Curie couple and enjoy a good reputation at home and abroad.

My second aunt Wu, my third aunt Jin and my fourth aunt Min are Korean. These three concubines were given to Yuan Shikai by korean king Li Xi. Third aunt Jin Yuan is the sister of Princess Koryo, and second aunt Wu and fourth aunt Min Yuan are the girls of third aunt. Yuan Shikai took the three men as concubines, arranged them by age, and asked his aunt Shen Shi to teach them the manners of Yuan family.

Yuan recorded in detail the life of his biological mother, Jin, who married the Yuan family: "Jin thought he married to be my father's wife." Unexpectedly, after the door, she was not the first wife, but the two girls she accompanied were accepted as concubines by my father. At the same time, on her head, there is also a big aunt who is regarded as his wife by his father. My mother is a girl of 16 years old. In such an environment, she can't have any other way out except resignation, so her mood is painful. Because of the importance of mental depression, she became an eccentric person-on the one hand, she seems to have a good temper, is good to all the people in the family, and never quarrels with others; On the other hand, when you are unhappy, you will get angry for accidental reasons, and even it is difficult to clean up.

Once, because of disagreement, she threw the chessboard and chess pieces she used when sitting with my father into the water. On another occasion, she and her fifth aunt were drinking in a corner of Zhongnanhai. About two people are a little drunk. I don't know why they quarreled over a few words. First, they started talking, and then they started fighting. Fortunately, a servant reported to my father until he stopped drinking loudly. Although a little drunk, the fifth concubine was my father's favorite person at that time, and she could still feel it. Under the oppression of the fifth concubine, she couldn't bear it. This time, she worked recklessly for some gossip. Her eccentric temper is also manifested in the beating of her daughter and girl. She still has a preference for boys, so she treats her daughter more harshly than her son. She sometimes hits the girl, which is even worse.

Her skin is very white, and thick black hair grows from the top of her head to her feet. It looks beautiful. However, she looked blank and never seemed to be happy. Not only does she have no feelings for her children, but sometimes she sits there with a straight face when my father comes to her room. Sometimes, when her father talks about happiness, she laughs with him, but after laughing, she immediately stops laughing, so there is no smile on her face anymore. She always secretly cries during Chinese New Year, holidays and her birthday. After she married my family, she never went back to her family, and no one in her family came to see her. Once, Aunt Liu's mother and brother came to see her from Yangzhou, Jiangsu. These two guests want to kowtow to my parents, but they can't be equal to my family. This is probably why she doesn't want her family to visit her. She is even more reluctant to talk about her family's past. In Zhongnanhai, she didn't go to Jurentang every day. However, when my father sees something delicious or she likes to eat, he always asks the servant to invite her to eat with him.

On the first day before she died, she said two things to my second brother: one was that her aunt abused her in the name of restraint and teaching shortly after she entered the door. The first aunt tied her to the leg of the table and beat her again. Because the left leg was beaten too hard, it suffered internal injuries, so that when it died, it was often unbearable and could not stand up straight. The other thing is: her father thinks that she married my father as her first wife. It was not until she passed the door that she realized that she was not only an aunt, but also lined him up with two girls who married him and became three concubines. Naturally, it's already very sad. Later, when she left Korea with my father, she was doubly sad. In particular, her mother watched her beloved daughter go to a strange place all the way, so the chance to meet again was naturally rare, so sadness and yearning were intertwined in the old man's heart. One day, her mother saw her expression in a trance, as if in the water lines in the well. She suspected that her daughter must have died in a foreign country, so she jumped into the well. Her father was saddened by his daughter's experience. He saw his wife commit suicide because of her daughter. At that time, she vomited a lot of blood and died three days later. After she finished the second story, she told my second brother that she didn't want to talk about what happened before, so as not to expose the wrong things my father did before his death. From this point of view, she has good intentions. "

My second aunt, Wu, has four sons and two daughters. Yuan Keqi, Yuan Kejian, Yuan Kedu, Yuan Bozhen, Yuan.

Yuan Keqi is the seventh son of Yuan Shikai. He once bought a large number of paper money rubles in the era of Russian Empire, hoping to make a fortune through speculation, but in the end, the huge amount of rubles became waste paper, which led to mental stimulation and some mental obstacles.

Yuan Kejian is the tenth son of Yuan Shikai. He studied in America and worked as a policeman under General Song. 1960 died at the age of 56.

Yuan Ke is the twelfth son of Yuan Shikai. He studied in America for ten years. He is good at English and smart, but he has done nothing. He died in 1976.

Yuan Bozhen, the eldest daughter of Yuan Shikai, married the son of Zhang, the governor of Liangjiang. Yuan's six daughters married Sun Baoqi's son.

Three aunts and six grandmothers gave birth to two sons and three daughters. Zi Yuan Ke Wen and Yuan Keliang; Daughters: Yuan, Yuan Huanzhen and Yuan Congzhen.

Yuan has already introduced it above. The third son Yuan Keliang and Yuan are compatriots, but their temperament is completely different from that of the second brother Yuan. Yuan Keliang doesn't like calligraphy and pen, and he is cheerful, but he is outspoken and always likes to make trouble. Yuan Shikai doesn't like him very much and thinks he can't do anything. He died in Beijing Xila Hutong 1948.

Yuan Shikai's third daughter, Yuan, married the nephew of Yang, the governor of Zhili.

Eight daughters, Yuan Huanzhen, died young. Yuan Congzhen is the tenth daughter of Yuan Shikai and married Zou Kaiwen, commander of Beijing gendarmerie during the Japanese and Puppet Period.

The fourth aunt, Mrs. Min, gave birth to a son and three daughters. Yuan Keduan, female Yuan, Yuan Cizhen, Yuan Qizhen.

Yuan Keduan ranked fourth and was very naughty when he was a child. When Yuan Shikai retired and returned to Huanshang Village to live in seclusion, he often sneaked into the pond of Yangshou Garden to catch fish. Just as he was having fun, he suddenly heard a sound of "Oh" on the shore, which sounded like Yuan Shikai. He ran quickly ashore. It turned out that his fifth brother Yuan Kequan pretended that Yuan Shikai was teasing him. The next day, he sneaked into the pond to catch fish and heard the sound of "Oh" from the shore. He thought his fifth brother Yuan Keduan must be up to something again, so he shouted, "Good old chap!" " However, this time it was really Yuan Shikai who took some people for a walk in Yangshou Garden. Yuan Shikai asked people around him to pull Yuan Keduan out of the pond and beat him with a stick. Yuan Keduan is good at calligraphy and married the daughter of Tianjin Dayan Merchant He. However, both of them smoked a lot and had no jobs. After a long time, their property will be destroyed, so they have to pawn their ancestral heritage and stocks to make a living. They died in 195 1.

Yuan Shikai's second daughter, Yuan, married the son of Xue Fucheng, the ambassador to Britain, France, Belgium and Italy. The fourth daughter, Yuan Cizhen, died young. Yuan Qizhen, the seventh daughter of Yuan Shikai, married the son of Yin Chang, the minister of war.

Wuyi Taiyang is a woman from Yangliuqing, Tianjin, a small family. He is not very beautiful, but he has the talent of a housekeeper, and he is smart, cautious and decisive. He also has a pair of feet of golden lotus, which won Yuan Shikai's favor. Yang takes care of Yuan Shikai's daily life. Yang should not only take care of Yuan Shikai's life, but also manage Yuan's household chores, the servants of all parties and the children in Yuan Shikai's room. Later, he was in charge of Yuan Shikai's newly married six, seven, eight and nine concubines. Because Yuan Shikai gave all the housekeeper's affairs to Wu Yi Tai Yang, she listened to her advice. No matter who she is, as long as she doesn't obey Yang's discipline and constraints, she will report to Yuan Shikai at any time and have to solve it. So Yuan Jia respects Yang's three points from top to bottom.

Yuan Shikai made a rule in the management of family concubines: concubines who enter the door later should obey the control of concubines who enter the door early. In this way, in the previous stage, my aunt disciplined my second aunt, third aunt and fourth aunt; In the later period, the fifth concubine disciplined the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth concubines. Aunt Wu Yang often uses Yuan Shikai's "family rules" to discipline concubines who come in after taking the door. If they don't fight, they will scold, especially the young aunt Jiu, who is young, unruly and stubborn, is bound to be beaten and scolded by Aunt Wu.

Yang gave birth to four children. Yuan Kezhen, Yuan Kejiu, Yuan Kean, Yuan, Yuan.

Yuan Shikai's sixth son, Yuan Kehuan, married the daughter of Jiangsu Governor Chen Qitai. He was mainly engaged in industry all his life, and once participated in the management of Qi Xin Lime Company and Hua Yao Glass Company. He founded Jiangnan Cement Plant in Nanjing and served as the mine manager of Kailuan Coal Mine, and died at 1956.

Yuan Kezhen is the eighth son of Yuan Shikai. Marry the daughter of Zhou Fu, the governor of Zhili, and Yuan Keqi is the brother-in-law of Zhou, the industrial tycoon of North China. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Zhou family was a powerful chaebol in the north. Yuan Keqi died in his forties. It is said that he died of alcoholism.

Yuan Kejiu is the ninth son of Yuan Shikai. He went to study in the United States with his tenth brother Yuan Kejian, eleventh brother Yuan Kean and twelfth brother Yuan Kedu. After returning to China, he worked in Qixin Cement Company, and 1973 died.

Yuan Kean is the eleventh son of Yuan Shikai. I went to study in America when I was young. After returning to China, I married Li, the daughter of Tianjin salt merchant, and later married Zhang Meisheng, a social butterfly in Tianjin.

Yuan Zhenji, the fifth daughter of Yuan Shikai, married the son of Lu Baozhong, a senior official.

Yuan Lingzhen, the fifteenth daughter of Yuan Shikai, died young.

Ye Shi, the sixth concubine, and Zhang Shi, the seventh aunt, were established by Yuan Shikai when he was governor of Zhili and minister of Beiyang. Eight aunts, the Guo family, was founded by Yuan Shikai when he was minister of military aircraft and foreign affairs in Beijing.

The story of my sixth aunt Ye's family is quite dramatic. When Yuan Shikai was appointed governor of Zhili, he sent his second son Yuan to Nanjing to handle affairs. Yuan was dissolute by nature, and went to Fireworks Liuxiang to have fun after business, so he met his sixth aunt Taiye. They fell in love at first sight and were inseparable, and they were engaged to get married. When Yuan left for Tianjin, Ye gave him a photo as a souvenir. Yuan Kewen returned to Tianjin to report to Yuan Shikai. Just as he kowtowed, Ye's photo slipped from his coat pocket. Yuan Shikai quickly asked, "What is that?" At that time, Yuan was not married, so he naturally didn't dare to show his pleasure in front of his father. He used his quick wits to say that he was looking for a beautiful girl for his father in the south, and now he has brought back photos for Yuan Shikai's advice. Yuan Shikai accepted it gladly after reading it, and sent his confidant Fu Dianqing to Nanjing to take money to redeem people. Ye's idea at that time was that he was going to marry Yuan. Unexpectedly, after the wedding night, he found that Yuan Shikai, with a beard and gray hair, had mistaken for his sixth aunt.

Ye's sixth aunt gave birth to two sons and three daughters. Sub-element and meta. Female Yuan Fuzhen, Yuan Qizhen and Yuan Ruizhen.

Jack Yuan is the fourteenth son of Yuan Shikai. There are few records of relevant information. After the founding of New China, he went to Qinghai to jump the queue and died in Qinghai.

Yuan Youke is the seventeenth son of Yuan Shikai. He was the youngest son of Yuan and died in 1953.

Xiao, the seventh aunt, was born in Shandong Province. She was Yuan Shikai's handmaid, and Yuan Shikai took her as his concubine, and she had no children. Yuan returned to Henan after the vacancy and died in Jixian County, Henan Province, childless.

Aunt Guo, a native of Zhejiang, was bought by Yuan Shikai from a brothel in Tianjin as an official of the Beijing Military Department. Yuan Kexiang and Yuan were born and Yuan Jiazhen was born.

Yuan Kexiang is the thirteenth son of Yuan Shikai. Yenching university graduated, good at English, and good at seal script. He is very influential in Tianjin. After liberation, he worked as a teacher in Tianjin and was persecuted to death during the Cultural Revolution. Marry the granddaughter of Na Tong, Minister of Military Affairs of the Qing Dynasty.

Yuan Kehe is the fifteenth son of Yuan Shikai. 1962 died of illness.

Yuan Jiazhen, the 14th daughter of Yuan Shikai, married the son of President Cao Kun of the Republic of China.

When Yuan Shikai lived in seclusion in Huanshang Village, Henan Province, he married the ninth and last concubine Liu. Born the fifteenth son Yuan, died young, and gave birth to another daughter Yuan.

Yuan Shikai's descendants have many wives. After he came home, they all followed Yuan to Huanshang Village in Henan.

In ancient China, children's marriage was basically the fate of their parents and the words of a matchmaker. For an aristocratic family like Yuan Shikai, the children's marriage is basically based on Yuan Shikai's political interests. Most of his children's relatives are close friends or senior bureaucrats who are officials in the same dynasty. The relationship between their children and parents-in-law can not only help and support each other politically, but also conform to the traditional "door-to-door". Before Yuan Shikai died, only nine sons and two daughters got married. In addition, all the children were married behind Yuan Shikai, who had nine children in-laws.

When Yuan Shikai lived in Zhangdehuan Shangcun, there was a large population. In order to raise the daily expenses and living expenses of the Yuan family, Yuan Shikai bought many fields in Zhangdefu earlier to solve the problem of eating for a large family. In Yangshou Garden, Yuan ordered his servants to raise poultry, live fish and fresh crabs, and to grow non-staple foods such as fruits and vegetables to meet Yuan's daily expenses. Sometimes, many agricultural and sideline products are taken to the nearby market to sell some money. Yuan Jia also hired a comprador in charge of purchasing and went to Anyang to purchase daily necessities every day. I will go to Tianjin and Shanghai every two or three months to buy things that Henan can't buy. And specially invited silkworm mothers from the south to be responsible for raising silkworms, reeling in the garden and sending them to the nearest Zhangde Silk Reeling Factory to produce silks and satins for sale. Yuan Shikai's wives in each room also raise silkworms and reel their own silk, and all the hard money earned goes to each room and is dominated by each room. In the large and small ponds of Yangshou Garden, Yuan Shikai also ordered people to plant lotus flowers and water chestnuts widely, and all kinds of fish were kept in the ponds. Yuan Shikai likes to eat smoked fish, and his second aunt Wu often catches fish for Yuan Shikai in the pond. Every autumn, when crabs grow fat, Yuan Shikai will take his family to the garden to catch crabs and eat crab meat happily. In summer, Yuan Shikai will take his family by boat to the Shui Xin Pavilion in the pool for the summer, and sometimes eat in the pavilion. On the full moon night, he will enjoy the moon with his family. Yuan Shikai's third aunt can play lyre. On a quiet night, when the moon was high, Yuan Shikai paddled on the water and looked up. I found that it was in the moonlight that he bowed his head and meditated, and sometimes he laughed. He would argue with his third aunt while playing chess and live in seclusion. In this longevity garden, usually, Yuan Shikai often invites artists to sing in the garden, such as Henan pendant or "Liu Zi Opera". On holidays, Mr. Yuan always invites famous Peking Opera actors from Beijing to entertain him. For example, Tang Hui sung by Yang Xiaoduo, and this kind of Tang Hui will also be sung on Yuan Shikai's birthday or his wife's birthday. When some important North Korean officials or ministers come to visit Kuaishan, Yuan Shikai will also show movies to entertain them.
