In 2007, a girl from rural Shaanxi Province, wearing a dress that her mother sewed for her, took the stage of the "Avenue of Stars".
No one expected that this petite-looking girl could burst out with such a powerful force.
From the lonely and nameless "grassroots of farmers", all the way through the barriers, into the annual finals of the "Walk of Fame".
At this time, people slowly learned that this girl named Wang Erni had participated in the first Spring Festival Gala of the "Red Special Train" from Yan'an to Beijing as early as two years ago.
After becoming famous, Wang Erni has always had a force behind her to support her.
There is a family, but also a boyfriend Li Fei who has accompanied her for many years.
But what Wang Erni did not expect was that Li Fei actually proposed to break up with her at this time.
In contrast, Li Fei is just a rural guy, no money, no fame, and his diploma is not high.
Why did he propose to Wang Erni, who had already succeeded, to break up?
Is It worth it for Wang Erni, who gave up her millions of annual salary to marry him?
01
Born in 1985 in Fengjiawan Village, Yulin, Shaanxi Province, Wang Erni is an authentic northern girl.
Yulin is in northern Shaanxi and belongs to the northern Shaanxi region.
As an old revolutionary area on the mainland, northern Shaanxi has a deep red background.
The songs there usually express people's thoughts and feelings.
The local people stand on the high slope and sing a few words aloud, and they can forget their sorrows and troubles.
Therefore, the songs in northern Shaanxi are either very high or can express a sense of truth.
Like "Loess High Slope" and "Shandan DanHua Blossoms Red and Colorful", etc., are the more famous songs in northern Shaanxi.
Wang Erni grew up in such a place and has a strong liking for singing since she was a child.
But living in the countryside, her family is not rich, and the family lives a life of eating and worrying.
At that time, she was very considerate of her parents' difficulties, and felt that as long as she could eat enough for a day, she would be very satisfied.
When she was a child, as long as she was not happy, she would run to the field to hum songs, sing and dance at the same time, and was deeply loved by the villagers.
Because my family is poor, I can't afford a DVD player and can't hear new songs at home.
Out of her love of singing, she would run to the commissary not far away, because there were folk songs from northern Shaanxi all day long.
Sometimes it's an afternoon.
At night, lying in bed and mumbling the songs I heard today, I lay in my mouth.
Because she often ran to the village to sing on the field, the villagers all knew that Wang Erni sang well and her voice was loud and crisp.
Although there are several children in the family, they live a life without opening the pot.
Her parents still decided to send Wang Erni to a professional place to study, and she could not waste her talent.
When she was 13 years old, her parents cobbled together her tuition and sent her to Yulin Hundred Flowers Art College.
He studied there for two years, specializing in singing and dancing.
The two years here have laid the foundation for her future.
Her later achievements did not waste her parents' expectations of smashing pots and selling iron.
After returning from school, Wang Erni was directly invited to join the Ansai County Art Troupe and became an artistic performer.
At that time, Wang Erni had already learned to be independent and did not ask the family for money.
Instead, he did some odd jobs and sent the money home.
Parents are naturally relieved to see that their daughters can support themselves and learn a skill.
But at that time, Wang Erni did not have any achievements, and she was always looking for an opportunity.
At the age of 15, Wang Erni signed up for the Yan'an Young Singers Grand Prix, and there were not few participants at that time.
Wang Erni, who had not officially performed on stage, seemed nervous.
But after slowly familiarizing herself with the stage, she began to explode with energy, feeling that she belonged here, and there was no longer any timidity.
Indeed, Wang Erni is like the sun on the stage, as long as it rises, it will shine brightly.
With her skills behind her, she finally won the first place in the competition.
She loves this feeling, being watched by countless people, and everyone throws in the eyes of appreciation.
So from then on, she decided to go further on this road, go further, and make the songs of northern Shaanxi shine throughout the country.
At this time, Wang Erni met a rural boy named Li Fei.
Both grew up in the countryside and each had dreams of getting out of the mountains.
The two people who first opened their love sinuses had already become each other's first love at that time.
Later, no matter where Wang Erni went and what decision she made, Li Fei was by her side to accompany her.
And this companionship, that is, 15 years, until marriage.

Since 2000, Wang Erni has often traveled to different places to participate in singing competitions in various places.
In the spring of 2001, Wang Erni participated in the "First Peasant Singer Competition" in Beijing and won the first place.
Later, he went to Hong Kong, Zhejiang and even Thailand to participate in singing competitions.
In those years, Wang Erni went to many places, participated in many competitions, and won many awards.
She brought songs from northern Shaanxi to every place she had ever been.
Because Wang Erni has always followed the team, she herself has not been famous.
Until 2007, Wang Erni saw the program "Walk of Fame" on TV.
Mainly singing and dancing, ordinary people can also participate.
Wang Erni signed up without saying a word.
Packing her bags, she went to Beijing with a dress full of enthusiasm and a dress that her mother had sewn for her.
At first, Wang Erni, who had no fame and looked rustic in dress, had no one to support her except her family.
But people with strength do not panic wherever they go.
After taking the stage, one song after another completely conquered the audience.
Such a petite and cute rural girl turned out to be so strong.
Finally entered the "Walk of Fame" finals and became famous in one fell swoop.
Her progress over the years, boyfriend Li Fei has always been in the eyes, but also has been accompanying her.
But Li Fei, like Wang Erni, hoped to go out of the mountains and make some achievements in the future.
But now, Wang Erni has become a household name star, but she is still the same old way, just a rural guy that no one knows.
The two have gone hand in hand for 7 years, and Li Fei does not want to delay Wang Erni because of himself.
So she thought bitterly and proposed to break up with Wang Erni.
In 7 years, how could Wang Erni not understand Li Fei's personality.
She knew that Li Fei was doing this to keep her star path unaffected.
Wang Erni, who became popular at once, was not blinded by fame and fortune, nor did she live a generous life because of these, but continued to work this road.
He has not forgotten Li Fei, who has always accompanied her and supported her.
So she decisively refused to break up.
Later, Wang Erni held a solo concert on CCTV.
In 2012, she was heavily signed by Dianshi Records, and At that time, Wang Erni had already exceeded her million annual salary.
Red does not forget Ben.
After Wang Erni earned money, she prepared to take her parents to the city to live.
However, her parents, who were accustomed to living in the countryside, did not want to live in the city, so Wang Erni returned to the countryside and built them a big house.
There are many people in the countryside who hate the poor and love the rich.
Seeing that Wang Erni had built a new house in her hometown, some people began to gossip:
"Wang Erni earned money, built a house, bought a luxury car, and did not restrain at all"
People who have lived in rural areas have the ideal of changing the status quo.
It's just that Wang Erni did it with her own strength.
Two years later, Wang Erni made a decision that no one expected.
She gave up her million-dollar annual salary and married Li Fei, a rural boy.
In fact, since they fell in love, they have been in a relationship for 15 years.
In 2014, Wang Erni and Li Fei entered the palace of marriage, and she was filled with a happy smile at the wedding.
Many people wonder why she would do this, and on her terms, finding a better person is simple.
But Wang Erni is unwilling, she is a person who does not forget ben, but also a person of emotion.
She knew that her success was inseparable from Li Fei's help, which was not an accident, but "planned for a long time".
After getting married, both returned to rural life.
Soon after, a child was born.
In order to take care of her children, Wang Erni changed from a big star to a full-time mother.
Although life is plain, it is full of happiness.
Her relationship with her mother-in-law is even more enviable.
03
Many people say that a woman only needs to marry a man who loves her and has a mother-in-law who hurts her.
This life is worth it.
In fact, before she got married, Wang Erni had already met Li Fei's parents.
At that time, Li Fei's mother had already treated her as her own daughter.
Until she married Li Fei, her mother-in-law's attitude did not change.
Later, Wang Erni and Li Fei moved to Beijing.
The mother-in-law is also used to living in the countryside and is unwilling to follow.
Once, Wang Erni was sick with a cold in Beijing, and she didn't see any better for half a month, and she still coughed.
After the mother-in-law knew, she came directly from her hometown to Beijing to take care of Wang Erni.
In order to make Wang Erni happy, her mother-in-law made her a different delicious meal every day.
At that time, Wang Erni lived like a princess, just needed to lie on the sofa and wait for her mother-in-law to bring food.
After her husband Li Fei got off work, he would often bring her small gifts.
Even later, when Wang Erni was on the show, the host sighed:
"Wang Erni, you not only have a good husband, but also a good mother-in-law."
Giving up a great future and marrying a man who loves me, I think it is worth it, and Wang Erni has never regretted marrying Li Fei.
Later, as the children grew up, Wang Erni also slowly shifted her focus to work.
In 2020, Wang Erni, who has not been seen for a long time, reappeared in the public eye and sang a song "Actor" with Xue Zhiqian, and she was still loved by the audience at that time.
On the contrary, as long as people mention the folk songs of northern Shaanxi, they will think of Wang Erni.
After so many years, she has always been loved by the audience.
It is because she is low-key and grounded, simple and powerful, and her appearance is impressive.
Come from the people, sing for the people, and give back to the people with songs from the people.
As a literary and art worker in northern Shaanxi, he is in Beijing but has his hometown in mind.
She still has her father and fellow countrymen in her heart, building for her hometown and setting up a student fund.
"Now I have the ability, I want to be able to afford to go to school with many poor children, before I also lived in the countryside, I couldn't afford to go to school, I had to borrow money everywhere for tuition, so I know the pain of poor children." 」
Red does not forget Ben, do not forget affection.
At the height of the fire, the rapids retreated and married the rural boyfriend who had been with him for many years.
Know how to advance and retreat, know how to be grateful.
Such an artist is the star we should chase.
