On a sunny afternoon in 2019, people's eyes were drawn to a couple. The bride was dressed in a white wedding dress, shyly holding the groom Xiao Pengfei's arm, and the two had happy smiles on their faces.
Xiao Pengfei reverently put on a diamond ring representing eternal love for Yadan, and Yadan's eyes couldn't help but moisten.
The relatives and friends present witnessed this touching moment and wished the couple a hundred years of happiness from the bottom of their hearts. However, there are doubts about this marriage.
Some people accuse Yadan of overly complicated marital relationships with her brother and brother; Some people criticized Xiao Pengfei for being ruthless and unrighteous towards his former sister-in-law; Some people even pointed out that they had damaged the reputation of the entire division.
All kinds of criticism are like thorns, piercing the heart of the girl. She can't help but think back to 2009, 14 years ago, which was an important turning point for her.
With her outstanding performance on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, she became a national star overnight from an obscure small role. Who would have thought that from that year onwards, she experienced the highlight of her career and started a period of ups and downs in her love life.
Family background and early life
Dating back to 1987, 35 years ago, Yadan (formerly known as Lu Pin) was born in an ordinary family in Qitaihe City, Heilongjiang. Her father Zhao Baocai (later renamed Lu Junting) and her mother Zhai Wei are both people who love literature and art, but because of their incompatible personalities, they always quarrel.
On a cold winter night, Zhai Wei finally couldn't bear to shout, "Divorce!" This heart-wrenching decision announced the end of this contradictory marriage.
The unborn girl lost a complete family in this way.
Fortunately, Yadan has been raised by her mother Zhai Wei since then. Although she has a diligent and studious sister, she has never felt that she is any different from others. In fact, she has shown amazing vocal talent and a sense of humor since she was a child.
At the age of 9, she began to perform with her parents' troupe, accumulating valuable performance experience on stage.
However, fate always likes to joke. When Yadan was 10 years old, the small theater invested by her father Lu Junting failed, and the family fell into a heavy debt crisis.
In order to repay her debts, the 10-year-old girl had to give up her studies and began to be a single-person duo turned actor.
She gave herself the stage name "Mao Mao", and her unique stage style is unforgettable - two long braids, big red cheeks with heavy makeup, and a shabby floral cotton jacket.
Although life is hard, Yadan devotes herself to her acting career and shows her talents on the stage.
Studied under Zhao Benshan and got to know Wang Jinlong
In an ordinary performance, Mao Mao, who was wearing a shabby padded jacket, was photographed by the famous comedy master Zhao Benshan. Zhao Benshan's purpose at that time was to select the right actor for the TV series he was preparing, and he was deeply attracted by Mao Mao's excellent performance, and immediately recruited her into his command.
Since then, Maomao has a new name "Yadan". After joining the Zhao family's class, Yadan was influenced by the unique Northeast culture, and in this strong local atmosphere, her acting talent has been greatly tempered and improved.
What's more, on the stage of Zhao Jiaban, Yadan got to know the person who was destined to change her life - Wang Jinlong. Wang Jinlong is Zhao Benshan's most outstanding apprentice, and people are amazed by his superb acting skills and persistent love for performing arts.
The two met late in frequent rehearsals and performances, and quickly had an unparalleled tacit understanding. Gradually, Yadan developed an incomparable admiration for this senior brother and was willing to give everything for him.
At that time, Wang Jinlong's career had not yet fully improved, and without saying a word, Yadan took the initiative to give up his emerging acting career, wholeheartedly supported his lover, and became his most tacit stage partner.
After years of mutual support and mutual affection, the relationship between the two became stronger and stronger, and finally decided to get married. Witnessed by relatives and friends, Yadan tearfully made an eternal vow to Wang Jinlong: "We will spend every good time together."
The great success of the Spring Festival Gala stage
In 2009, it was a time when Yadan's career was in full swing. Zhao Benshan, who was preparing for the Spring Festival Gala, was exhausted and rehearsed day and night. Just when there were only 10 days left before the Spring Festival Gala, the originally scheduled program "Sending Cake" was urgently stopped, which was undoubtedly a major blow to Zhao Benshan.
In the face of this crisis, Zhao Benshan resolutely gave up the original work, and quickly teamed up with his partners Xu Zhengchao and Yin Qi to recreate a new wonderful work - "Not Bad Money".
As soon as the script was played, it immediately aroused praise after praise. Especially Yadan's outstanding performance in the play, the playful and cute image made the whole sketch a great success and instantly became a household name.
The audience was all impressed by Yadan's humorous opening of "Thank you for your eight ancestors" in the play. Immediately afterwards, her high-pitched and loud singing segment of "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau" won the most popular laurel of the audience in one fell swoop.
The national audience went crazy, and Yadan's popularity reached its peak in one fell swoop.
After the Spring Festival Gala, Ya Dan and Xiao Shenyang, who performed on the same stage, became hot stars overnight, and the appearance fee also rose to a sky-high price of 50,000 yuan per show. She was a great success, and she should have taken advantage of the victory to chase and soar into the sky.
However, at the peak of her career, Yadan made a decision that surprised everyone - she was going to marry Wang Jinlong.
It was a beautiful moment in May 2009, and the girl in a snow-white wedding dress made an eternal vow to the groom, Wang Jinlong, in the presence of relatives and friends: "We will spend every good time together."
The groom Wang Jinlong affectionately embraced her into his arms, and the two walked into the palace of marriage with expectations for a better life in the future.
Married to Wang Jinlong
Soon after the marriage, Yadan returned to work. At this time, the heat wave of the Spring Festival Gala had not subsided, and she boldly tried an opportunity to perform on the screen and collaborated with the famous director Zhang Yimou to shoot a movie.
However, there are many problems with this movie, and it seems incompatible with Yadan and Xiao Shenyang to act in a two-person way. In the end, this film is considered the most unsuccessful of all Zhang Yimou's works.
Since then, Yadan has not had any other film works.
The reason is because of her full support for her husband Wang Jinlong's career. In order to do his best for Wang Jinlong's career, Yadan chose to return to the stage and become Wang Jinlong's best stage partner.
The unparalleled tacit cooperation between the two, coupled with the strong impetus of Yadan's popularity, finally made Wang Jinlong's career successes frequent and his reputation gradually rose.
However, during this time, a test from life gently knocked on the heart of the girl. At the beginning of 2011, Yadan unexpectedly found out that she was pregnant.
At that time, the careers of the two were in their prime, and she went through many entanglements and trade-offs on whether to give birth to this child.
In the end, Yadan bravely made the choice, she decided to give birth to the baby and give up her thriving career for a while. A mother's destiny predestined her to make sacrifices for her family, and she fully embraced the role.
The undercurrent of married life was turbulent, and eventually divorced
In this way, when Yadan returned to the public eye at the end of 2012, her career had missed the best golden period. In this era of rapid development of the Internet, the audience's memory is so short, and the former star will soon be diluted by the novelty.
The aesthetic standards of the audience are also changing with the times, and the emotions between husband and wife will also change with the tempering of life.
Since 2013, some people have noticed that the frequency of interaction between Yadan and Wang Jinlong has decreased significantly. Some people think that this is just a normal manifestation of lovers entering the middle age of marriage, and they no longer interact as frequently as they did when they were younger.
But soon, even on the occasion of performing on the same stage, they rarely met each other, causing the outside world to wonder if the relationship between the loving couple was in crisis.
It wasn't until 2017 that this speculation was finally confirmed. In an interview program, Zhao Benshan personally admitted the news of Yadan and Wang Jinlong's divorce. It turned out that for a long time, Zhao Benshan, as the master, had been trying to mediate the husband and wife, but he couldn't save their marriage after all.
As for the reason for the divorce, both parties only tactfully said that "the marriage is over" and will continue to maintain friendship and family relations in the future. But there is news from the outside world that Wang Jinlong has taken other women out shopping or driving many times.
However, there is a lack of conclusive evidence for these allegations, and the real reason is known only to the parties themselves.
In any case, from getting to know each other, giving birth to children, to finally parting ways, Yadan has paid too much in this marriage. She was completely immersed in the relationship and gave up her career for it.
In the days after the divorce, she must have experienced a lot of sorrow and inner struggle.
made a comeback, married Xiao Pengfei and had children
After a period of divorce, Yadan finally re-embarked on the road of professional comeback.
It was a beautiful afternoon in the middle of summer, Xiao Pengfei was dressed in a casual suit, suddenly knelt down on one knee, and solemnly presented a well-designed diamond ring to Yadan.
The girl's face was full of scarlet clouds, her eyes were full of joy, and she nodded and accepted the unexpected marriage proposal. Relatives and friends present witnessed this touching moment, and shouted their blessings to the couple, and the applause was endless for a long time.
However, the outside world has another comment on this marriage. Some people think that the marriage relationship between Yadan and her brother and brother is too complicated and difficult to solve; Some people condemned Xiao Pengfei's ruthlessness and unrighteousness towards his former sister-in-law; Some people also pointed out that their couple tarnished the reputation of the entire division.
Yadan didn't care about these criticisms. She just bravely embarked on a new path in life, opening a new chapter that she had never seen before. Soon after marriage, Yadan became pregnant again and gave birth to a lively and lovely baby for Xiao Pengfei.
Since then, Yadan has bid farewell to the two people who have been deeply cultivated for many years and turned to the new field of live broadcasting. Her unique charisma shines through in this new world and has won the love of a large number of loyal fans.
Yadan's life has regained its sweetness and beauty, and she has lived a happy and healthy new life.
Looking back and looking to the future
Looking back on the past, Yadan's life has experienced too many ups and downs.
In fact, for the choice to give up his career for Wang Jinlong, Yadan has never resented it. In that special era, it was the responsibility and obligation of her generation to support her lover's career development.
Even if it eventually fell apart, she fully accepted the result and did not complain.
It is precisely because of the experience of the first marriage that Yadan can truly realize that there is no eternal love in this world, and life should be braver and pursue the true happiness in her heart.
Now, Yadan has found a new purpose and direction in her live broadcast career, and she is determined to succeed in this new career field and influence and inspire more people in her own unique way.
She is no longer the "girl" she used to be, but a woman who has experienced the vicissitudes of life and has a deeper understanding of life.
The road of life is long, and so is the road of life.
Everyone will inevitably stumble on this road, Yadan chooses to face the ups and downs of life bravely, and actively embrace the courage of life to pursue happiness!
It is this courage that has allowed her to rediscover the meaning and fulfillment of life 14 years later.
