Yan Su's wife, Li Wenhui, is an ordinary person, and in life Yan Su is afraid of his wife and is happy to be a "wife who manages strictly.". In 2016, Yan Su unfortunately died of a cerebral infarction. It is regrettable that after The death of Elder Yan, his wife and son went to court...
01
Yan Su (formerly known as Yan Zhiyang), born in 1930 in Baoding, Hebei Province, has lived a turbulent and displaced life with his family since childhood.
Young Yan Su
Yan Su is the eldest son in the family, and there are two younger brothers and a younger sister below. Yan Su's parents supported their family by doing small businesses, and when Yan Su was 7 years old, his family moved to Wuhan to make a living, and at the age of 9, his family moved to Chongqing.
At that time, the Japanese often bombed Chongqing, blowing up their humble homes, and the family lived in the culverts for a while before moving to the slums.
Yan Su was talented and talented since childhood, and because of his excellent academic performance, he completed the Nankai Middle School in Chongqing by scholarship, and was later admitted to the Department of Business Administration of Chongqing University.
In 1950, Yan Su entered the Southwest Youth Literary troupe, where he worked as an actor, a drama director, and also composed music and art works.
In the following years, Yan Su participated in the land reform and also went to the front line of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea to perform condolences and performances.
During Yan Su's time in Korea, his father unfortunately died prematurely due to illness, and he was unable to see his father for the last time. Yan Su's mother and younger siblings did not have jobs, life was very poor, Yan Su raised his mother and 3 younger siblings alone.
Receiving a monthly salary, Yan Su left only a small part of the living expenses, and the rest was sent back to let his mother support the family.
In 1955, Yan Su was transferred to the Air Politics Cultural and Labor Corps in Beijing. Three years later, the unit arranged for Yan Suxia's company to experience life. He cooked with the cooks, raised pigs, brushed the planes with brushes, and followed the crew to screw and oil the planes.
These tasks, which seem to have nothing to do with songwriting, are actually helping Yan Su accumulate energy.
One evening when the sky was full of color, the training planes returned one after another, and Yan Su and his comrades lined up on the tarmac to greet them. Suddenly, Yan Su's inspiration burst forth and he wrote the classic song "I Love the Blue Sky of the Motherland" in one breath.

This song was composed by Yang Ming, and after Qin Wantan sang it, it quickly became popular throughout the country, and Yan Su had a certain popularity in the country.
At this time, Yan Su was already 28 years old, and in that era, he belonged to the elderly youth, and his comrades-in-arms and leaders were worried about his personal problems.
Because his family was poor and under great pressure to support his family, Yan Su had been a soldier for several years without a penny of savings around him, and he did not have the courage to pursue the girl he liked.
In 1960, Huang He, minister of the Ministry of Culture of the Air Force, found his old comrade-in-arms Lin Ye and asked her to introduce yan Su to him. Lin Ye was also the leader of a literary and art unit in Beijing, so he introduced his niece Li Wenhui to Yan Su.
At Lin Ye's request, Yan Su wrote a letter to Li Wenhui and sent a photo of himself in a military uniform.
Li Wenhui read the letter and photos, felt that the young man's literary style was good, and the person also looked good, and agreed to meet.
Li Wenhui was 4 years younger than Yan Su and was born in 1934 in a large family in Anxin County, Baoding, Hebei Province, with a very privileged family. Li Wenhui was working as a literary and artistic soldier in Jinzhou, Liaoning Province.
With Lin Ye's mediation, Li Wenhui soon rushed from Jinzhou to Beijing to meet Yan Su.
Who knew this, let her be surprised: Yan Su was short, plain-looking, and his back was still a bit hunched, far less spirited than in the photo.
On that day, Yan Su wore cheap and outdated thread socks, and wore old military pants as underwear, which was a poor boy at first glance. Li Wenhui was reluctant to develop with Yan Su anymore, and she told her parents about Yan Su's situation, and her family also expressed opposition.

Lin Ye gave his niece a job, saying that Yan Su was of good character and very talented, and hoped that she would continue to associate for a while before making a decision. Since then, Yan Su has frequently written letters to Li Wenhui, and he has written more than 100 letters in more than a year.
Yan Su's talent gradually impressed Li Wenhui, and after several contacts, she felt that Yan Su was kind, upright, self-motivated, and a good boy full of positive energy, so she accepted Yan Su in her heart.
In 1961, Yan Su and Li Wenhui were licensed to marry in Beijing, and after the marriage, the husband and wife separated.
In the autumn of 1962, Yan Su went to Jinzhou to visit relatives. For 18 days of vacation, he kept himself at home composing the opera "Sister Jiang".

In 1964, the opera "Sister Jiang" caused a huge sensation after being performed nationwide. According to media reports at the time, the opera "Sister Jiang" was performed in Shanghai for 5 times, and some audiences actually bought tickets to watch 5 times, and some audiences memorized every line.
Because the influence of the opera "Sister Jiang" was too great, Yan Su became popular throughout the country.
After marriage, Yan Su and his wife successively gave birth to a daughter and a son. Daughter Yan Ru was born in 1962, and son Yan Yu was born in 1965.
After becoming a mother, Li Wenhui was transferred to work in a literary and art unit in Beijing, and Yan Su and his wife ended their separated lives.
In the special years, Yan Su also suffered unfair treatment and was deprived of the right to create. Worried about his wife and children, he asked for a divorce from Li Wenhui.

The wife said: "We are a family, where you go I will follow you, we will not be separated for the rest of our lives." Yan Su's eyes wet with tears.
In the difficult years, Li Wenhui has been guarding Yan Su without abandonment and supporting a home for her husband.
This made Yan Su's heart full of gratitude, and in the turbulent life of decades, the reason why he has always let his wife be happy to be a "wife and strict management" is to miss them as a couple in distress.
In 1976, the spring breeze blew across the land of Shenzhou, and Yan Su restored his creative freedom. In order to find back the lost time, he broke out with unprecedented creative passion, and successively launched popular songs such as "Bright Moon", "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is", "Barracks Man" and so on.
It is worth mentioning that the reason why Yan Su created "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is" for the old TV series "Journey to the West" is a large part of the credit of Li Wenhui.
At that time, Yan Su had other creative tasks, and Yang Jie, the director of "Journey to the West", was embarrassed to look for Yan Su, so she found Li Wenhui and asked her to persuade Yan Su to write a song for the TV series.
Yan Su respected his wife very much, put aside other creative tasks, and focused on writing songs for "Journey to the West", as a result of which he created "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is", which has been handed down to this day.

Yan Su was open-minded and optimistic, and he was smiling and squinting at everyone. At home, he was in charge of everything by his wife, and Yan Su was particularly cooperative and respectful of his wife. Li Wenhui has a somewhat strong personality, and Yan Su never has a direct conflict with his wife.
When the two men disagreed, he always made a compromise first. Sometimes even if he is right, he bows to his wife.
In his early years, Yan Su and his wife
Yan Su's younger siblings had very general economic conditions, and he saved some private money behind his wife's back. In front of his wife, he wanted to subsidize his younger brothers and sisters; behind his wife's back, he also had to give his brother and sister a little money.
Once, his sister borrowed 200 yuan from him to buy a bicycle, and Yan Su gave all the 200 yuan of private money to his sister.
Half a year later, my sister came to the house to pay him back. Yan Su was particularly nervous: "Grandma, you must not mention this matter, if your sister-in-law knows about it, it will be trouble." As a result, he did not let his sister pay back the 200 yuan.
In 1985, Yan Su's mother died, and he was busy with the Spring Festival Gala on CCTV, and he could not see his mother for the last time. When his father died, Yan Su was not around, which became his eternal regret and heartache.
Yan Su's daughter Yan Ru is a well-known bridge player in China, and in the late 1980s, Yan Ru and her teammate Xiao Yang received a marriage license before telling the family.

Li Wenhui could not accept it, and Yan Su advised his wife: "Since the certificate has been received, let's respect the children, they have their lives." ”
Yan Ru and her husband did not have a wedding, saying that if they invited the families of both sides to eat a meal, the marriage would be considered a marriage.
At that time, Yan Su's younger siblings were all living in Beijing, and Yan Yu picked up his uncle and aunt, and everyone rushed to the hotel together.
They regret that the grade of the hotel is very general, even there is no private room, everyone sits in the lobby. Xiao Yang's parents did not come, only one of his girlfriends was around.
Yan Yu felt that the man was too disrespectful to his sister and wanted to overturn the table, but was pulled by Yan Su. Yan Su was also very entangled: he felt that the marriage of his children was such a big thing, how could the man's parents also meet!

Yan Su knew that everyone was angry in their hearts, and in order not to expand the contradiction, he made a poem on the spot, called "Golden Red Rose", to give to his daughter and son-in-law. He stood up and read it, and it made everyone happy.
In 2006, Yan Yu got married, and his wife's name was Liu Lina. She graduated from the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts and is a singer and actress in the Armed Police Cultural and Labor Troupe.
Liu Lina is 15 years younger than Yan Yu, and she married at the age of 23. After marriage, Liu Lina has always wanted to be transferred to the Air Politics Cultural and Labor Corps, in fact, with Yan Su's qualifications, this is not a difficult thing for him.
But Yan Su has always been upright, does not want to open the back door for his family, and has never mentioned this matter to the leaders, liu Lina has been working in the Armed Police Cultural and Labor Corps.
Yan Su and his son
In 2009, Li Wenhui and his son proposed to open a cultural company because the family had the resources in this regard. Usually, Yan Su listened to his wife at home, but he was firmly opposed to this matter, because he did not want to be gossiped about by others.
Li Wenhui and his son could not resist Yan Su, so they had to dispel the idea of running a cultural company.

Yan Yu previously worked at a bank and was promoted to vice president. He later resigned from business, invested in baby-rearing schools, and invested in high-altitude power generation. He did not use his father's aura and broke a path on his own, and Yan Su was proud of his son.
Yan Su was optimistic and his health had always been very good. However, on September 29, 2015, when Yan Lao was eating, his chopsticks suddenly could not hold the dumplings, and then he fell unconscious.
After the doctor's diagnosis, he said that Yan Su's brainstem aorta was blocked, and he could do craniotomy or insert a tube from the thigh femoral artery to the brain to unblock.
Yan Su
However, considering that Yan Lao was 85 years old at this time and the risk of performing surgery was too great, the hospital recommended conservative treatment. Yan Lao has not woken up since his coma, and his family has taken turns to guard him in the hospital.
After more than 10 days of rescue, Yan Lao only moved his toes. On February 12, 2016, Yan Lao died in Beijing at the age of 86.
Yan Lao left behind more than 1,000 songs and many literary and artistic works, which is a valuable asset.
Yan Su passed away, pushing his old companion accompanied by wind and rain into the abyss of grief. In order to remember her husband and resolve the grief in her heart, the elderly Li Wenhui took on the heavy responsibility of sorting out and publishing her husband's posthumous works.
However, in January 2019, the media suddenly broke the news that Li Wenhui and his daughter Yan Ru sued their son Yan Yu to the Haidian District People's Court, demanding that Yan Su's music copyright and property rights be analyzed, and it was determined that Li Wenhui enjoyed two-thirds and his daughter enjoyed one-sixth.

Why did mother and son come to this point? It turned out that shortly after Yan Lao's death in 2016, Li Wenhui received a notice of arrival of copyright tax, but the money did not arrive.
At the suggestion of the staff, Li Wenhui sent the inheritance materials sent by the relevant departments to his daughter and son to sign. But the son has not signed, nor has he expressed his position, this matter has been dragged on for 3 years, Li Wenhui had to entrust a lawyer to formally prosecute.
Li Wenhui is not fighting with her son for any inheritance, she feels that her son does not take himself seriously, this is not a matter of money, but involves the level of family ethics and morality.
In an interview, Yan Yu expressed his willingness to distribute according to the law.
After the news was exposed, public opinion was in an uproar. Many netizens posted articles criticizing Yan Yu, believing that he should not compete with his elderly mother for inheritance.

Yan Yu realized that things had gone wrong and brought harm to his mother. Soon after he issued a statement apologizing to his mother and admitting his mistake. Then he rushed home to visit and comfort his mother.
Li Wenhui cried. During this time, she was very sad, she did not come out of the pain of widowhood, and her son let her add to the blockage, and she almost lived like a year.
Now that her son had untied her knot, Li Wenhui felt much better. After communication, the mother and son reached a settlement, and then Li Wenhui withdrew the lawsuit from the Haidian District People's Court.
In March 2022, Elder Yan has been dead for 6 years, and Elder Li Wenhui is also 88 years old. She is in a good mental state, living alone, and her children will often come to accompany her.
Perhaps the older the person, the more fragile he is, Li Wenhui often thinks back to the stormy years he has walked with Yan Su, and feels that every day is so warm and sweet.
Yan Su and his wife Li Wenhui
She often said to her children: "It is not easy for two people to form a family, and it is not easy to form a couple." When you reach old age, you will become more and more aware of the preciousness of the affection of husband and wife. Therefore, when one party is still alive, we must cherish every day, so that when the old man recalls it, his heart will be sweet and moved. ”
"Detailed celebrity" comments: Yan Su is a titan in the world of words, highly respected, he is not only brilliant in his career, but also very wise in life. Because of his family's poverty, he supported his parents before marriage. After forming a family with Li Wenhui, he was willing to be a "wife and strict management".
In the words of Yan Su, a man's "strict wife management" is not afraid of his wife, but out of love and respect. Your wife has children for you, silently manages the housework, pays for you behind your back, what's so bad about you letting her take care of it?
The wife is the closest person to herself, but also the most concerned about the family and her husband, she is dedicated to the family, as a husband to cooperate with her.
Yan Su and the little actor
The way of getting along with husband and wife summed up by Yan Lao is very philosophical in life, which benefits people a lot. If husbands can be like Yan Lao, there will be many fewer divorced couples in the world, and there will be more harmonious families.
Marriage is no small matter, the most test of a man's wisdom and patience, a man who can manage a good marriage, career and life will not be too bad!
