Preamble:
Is marriage destined to fade love, and is romance going to die?
For these philosophical propositions about life events, we often have to look for answers in other people's stories.
So, what kind of answer will the marriage of actor Wu Gang and his wife Yue Xiuqing unveil for us?
Let's walk into their stories together to feel the love and romance contained in the 38-year relationship and 32-year marriage of a couple and couple.
Wu Gang was born in a military family and had the dream of being an actor
Wu Gang was born in a military family, and his parents originally hoped that he could inherit the family business and become the "second generation of the military".
But at a young age, Wu Gang was captivated by the magic of acting, and he immersed himself in the vivid performances of the actors on TV, dancing with his hands and mimicking lines in his mouth.
The scene of the family sweating like rain on the training ground made Wu Gang not have much yearning for a military career.
But he has a strong interest in the profession of actor.
At first, his parents only thought he was joking, but he didn't expect that when he was 10 years old, Wu Gang was photographed by the crew and co-starred with You Benchang in the children's single drama "The Big Ship is Coming".
Since then, the dream of being an actor has slowly sprouted in Wu Gang's heart.
When I first entered Beijing Renyi, I met my first love, Yue Xiuqing
After graduating from high school, Wu Gang devoted himself to realizing his dream of becoming an actor.
He applied for the Central Academy of Drama and the China Coal Mine Art Troupe successively, but both ended in failure.
The dream of being an actor ran aground, and Wu Gang was depressed for a while, and he couldn't even lift up his energy to eat while lying in bed.
Seeing this, his parents had to temporarily arrange for him to work in the neighborhood committee to divert his attention.
Under the care of a group of considerate aunts, Wu Gang gradually came out of frustration, and the life of the neighborhood committee was like a fish in water.
In 1985, when the Beijing People's Art Theater began to recruit students, Wu Gang was in high spirits and once again took the exam with the determination to strike again.
This time, he got his wish and was accepted.
And in the same class, he also met the one who would change his life - Yue Xiuqing.
Acquaintance, acquaintance, love, and hand in hand to get through the assessment period
Although Yue Xiuqing looks mediocre, he is very popular and considerate.
When she found out that a classmate couldn't even afford a quilt cover because of his family's poverty, she bought a quilt cover for that classmate out of her own pocket without saying a word.
When the exam was approaching, she took the class over and over the key knowledge.
Wu Gang was deeply attracted by Yue Xiuqing's righteousness and helpfulness.
As a military family, he has always preferred independent and self-reliant women.
In stark contrast to the weak and shy girl, Yue Xiuqing gives people the feeling that the sun is shining.
In the name of the class leader, Wu Gang often asked Yue Xiuqing to discuss classes and class affairs together, and took the opportunity to approach her.
At first, Yue Xiuqing only regarded Wu Gang as an ordinary classmate.
It wasn't until later, when Wu Gang would buy her an ice cream she liked to eat every time they met, that she realized Wu Gang's heart for herself.
When Wu Gang took the initiative to confess, Yue Xiuqing lowered his head to hide his shyness.
Since then, the two have been in a relationship.
Both understand that in order to successfully pass the assessment period, they must devote themselves to their studies.
As a result, they kept their relationship low-key.
Wu Gang said to Yue Xiuqing: "We want to make progress together, and we must stay." "
Under the influence of excellent people, you can also become excellent.
The two worked hard and concentrated, did not waste time on the wind and snow, and finally passed the assessment period as they wished.
To celebrate, Wu Gang used the 50 yuan he had saved from several months' salary to buy a red dress for Yue Xiuqing.
In the three years of college, their relationship has never faded, but has become stronger.
Successful courtship is deep
Approaching graduation, Wu Gang invited Yue Xiuqing to his house as a guest with sincere intentions.
Although Wu Gang's family background is average, and the house is old and simple, he confessed to Yue Xiuqing: "My family is like this, not very rich, if you don't like me, I won't pester you." "
Yue Xiuqing responded with a smile: "My family is not rich, do you dislike it?" The two looked at each other and smiled, and entered the door.
Looking at the clean, tall and thin Yue Xiuqing, Wu Gang's mother was very happy with this future daughter-in-law.
She warmly held Yue Xiuqing, asked her about her studies, and gave her her bracelet after eating.
Yue Xiuqing's face was flushed, and Wu Gang walked over and carefully put the bracelet on her slender wrist.
At that time, both families had already recognized this family business.
In 1991, with the blessings of relatives and friends, Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing ushered in a new stage of their lives - becoming husband and wife.
Hand in hand to overcome difficulties and the cause gradually became popular
After entering the new century, Wu Gang's career began to gradually get on the right track.
In 2001, he partnered with Niu Li in the TV series "Ruixue Piaopiao".
In 2006, he and Feng Yuanzheng starred in the drama "Mutiny", which made him famous in the industry, and won the highest gold lion award in the drama industry in one fell swoop.
Since then, Wu Gang's career has ushered in a new breakthrough.
He has starred in many excellent works such as "Teahouse", "Xu Beihong", "Latent", and cooperated with popular stars such as Liu Bei, Xin Baiqing, and Liu Xiaoqing.
In the movie "Iron Man", in order to be more suitable for the role he played, he even ate only tomatoes for a month, resulting in a loss of more than a dozen pounds, and all the crew were impressed by his professionalism.
At the same time, Yue Xiuqing also ushered in the highest peak of his career.
In 2009, she released 7 film and television works.
A year later, the couple co-starred in the movie "Not Afraid of Thieves".
By this time, her husband Wu Gang's fame had surpassed Yue Xiuqing's.
Major directors threw green leaves at him one after another.
But Yue Xiuqing has never been jealous of her husband's achievements, on the contrary, she is willing to be Wu Gang's strong backing.
In 2011, after she finished cooperating with Chen Baoguo in "The King's Style", she rarely filmed anymore, and devoted her main energy to taking care of her family.
Mutual affection and affection
With Yue Xiuqing at home, Wu Gang can go out to work with complete peace of mind.
Yue Xiuqing always sorted out everything he needed in advance and put them in his suitcase.
As soon as the holiday is over, Wu Gang only needs to carry his bag and leave, and he no longer has to worry about packing his things.
Whenever Wu Gang returned from filming in other places, Yue Xiuqing would prepare his favorite dishes in advance and wait for her husband to return home after a tiring journey.
A mouthful of hot home-cooked food is as if all fatigue has been relieved.
Wu Gang often shows his love for his wife on the show: "Where can I find such a good daughter-in-law." "
Although she is often teased by the host, "Are you relieved that she is outside?" But his trust in his wife is unconditional and absolute: "We are built on mutual trust as husband and wife.
I have female friends who have a good relationship, and she also has a lot of good male friends.
But we both know each other and never suspect that the other will cheat. "
Yes, they don't need those hysterical quarrels and black-and-white rules between them at all, just have each other in their hearts.
This is probably the highest level of the so-called "gentlemen's agreement".
Yue Xiuqing often said to Wu Gang: "Don't stay at home anymore, you can also go out to find friends to have a meal and go shopping." "
In Yue Xiuqing's eyes, her husband is the most reliable if he is independent and wise.
Of course, Wu Gang is also famous for his love for his wife.
As long as he inadvertently said, "This dish is good", Yue Xiuqing would make a note in his heart and go home to reproduce the delicious dish for him by himself.
Every year on Yue Xiuqing's birthday, no matter where Wu Gang is, she will order 999 roses to commemorate her.
One year, Wu Gang said that he would accompany his wife for her birthday.
When the meal was approaching, Yue Xiuqing called to ask him where he was, but Wu Gang said that he was still at the airport.
When she opened the door, she found that there was already a large box with "Forget-me-not" written on it.
Wu Gang went home early, just to surprise his wife.
As he gets older, Wu Gang is still as romantic as when he was in his first love.
When he is not busy at work, he will accompany Yue Xiuqing to go shopping, although he doesn't like it, as long as his wife is happy, he will enjoy shopping for a few hours.
Sometimes his son Wu Yuqing will also follow, and he is dazzled by his parents' endless show of affection.
Wu Yuqing is 26 years old this year, and he is also an actor who once co-starred with his father in "All the Way to Adulthood".
In addition to acting, Wu Yuqing also has some attainments in music, which is undoubtedly the greatest pride for Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing.
Because of work, Wu Gang has very little time at home.
Whenever he had the chance, he would buy a few bottles of wine, cook a table of dishes at home with his wife, and talk until midnight.
In his opinion, this is the most emotional way to get along.
A family of three is happy, and it is not the best moment in life.
Epilogue:
In this way, Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing have been in love for 38 years and have been in love for 32 years.
At that time, Wu Gang fully supported his wife's career development, and once his wife succeeded, she took the initiative to retreat into the background and silently supported her husband's career to take off.
Today's Wu Gang is still as eager and romantic as his first love for his wife.
They used their lives to interpret the true meaning of the phrase "romance until death".
60-year-old Wu Gang still wears a couple's outfit when he goes out with his wife, and thoughtfully pours wine and water for his wife.
Their love seems to stay forever on the afternoon when they first met and ate ice cream, thinking about each other in their hearts.
Will love dissipate? Many people may say that marriage will eventually dilute the vigorous flame of love.
But the story of Wu Gang and his wife gives the best answer: it's not that love will dissipate, but that they didn't love so much at all.
If you really love someone, how can you allow yourself to let go?
There are too many helplessness in life that hinder our pursuit of love, but as long as we experience and feel with our hearts, we will definitely be able to find extraordinary romance in the ordinary.
Just like Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing, a loving couple, they spent their lives composing an immortal hymn of love.
