The vast and rich land of China, Damintun Village, Xinmin City, Liaoning Province, this seemingly ordinary corner of the countryside, but because of the appearance of a special person, the magnificent life picture is slowly unfolded.
Chen Houping, a villager over half a hundred years old, has worked hard day after day in the vast farmland, but the yearning for female identity in his heart is as irrepressible as wildfire.
The clues of all this seem to be traced back to the moment when the second daughter was born. Since then, Chen Houping has developed a deep resistance to his wife Li Min's body, and the sex life between the husband and wife has become awkward and delicate.
In the face of his wife's doubts, he always replied vaguely: "I'm just sick".
Time flies, time flies. A few years later, his wife, Li Min, was surprised to find that her husband's body shape was quietly changing: his burly and muscular body had become thinner, his skin was becoming more delicate and smooth, and his steps were light, like an elegant woman.
At the same time, Chen Houping was no longer willing to engage in heavy manual labor, and his daily focus became that he was responsible for household chores.
Finally, in the middle of the night, Chen Houping plucked up the courage to confess to his wife what he really thought — that he longed for a real gender transition through surgery. This decision was like a bolt from the blue, bringing unprecedented shock and distress to this originally peaceful and peaceful farm.
Faced with the deteriorating condition of her husband, Li Min had to take on the responsibility of the family alone. However, Chen Houping lost interest in farming and indulged in beautiful fantasies about a "transgender" life in the future.
The family was in an unprecedented predicament.
His wife, Li Min, tried her best to apply for a loan from the bank, but was repeatedly rejected, so she had to run around and ask relatives and friends for help. When people learned that she was raising money for her husband's transgenderism, they chose to avoid it and even sneered at her.
Once strong and brave, she often burst into tears in the indifference and ridicule of others.
However, in desperation, a plastic surgery hospital in Shenyang learned of their plight and generously offered to provide Chen Houping with a free surgery. This is undoubtedly great news for them! Chen Houping was so excited that he felt as if he was in a dream.
Recalling Chen Houping, his wife Li Min's heart was full of endless thoughts. He was the handsome and dashing husband who grew up in Damintun Village and showed extraordinary talent since he was a child.
He had a high school diploma, which was even more rare in the rural areas at that time, and he not only taught himself to master the technology of home appliance maintenance, but also successfully trained his two daughters to become excellent college students, which was rare in the countryside at that time.
It was Chen Houping's outstanding talent and noble temperament that won the praise of Ms. Li Min for the first time. He was fair-skinned and graceful, like a bright star in the village.
Looking back on the past years, we may understand that it was this innate "femininity" that led him to make the big and far-reaching decision to undergo sex reassignment surgery.
The news of Chen's decision to undergo sex reassignment surgery came as a bolt from the blue, deeply shocking his family members, especially his two daughters. When the eldest daughter returned home after the New Year's break at school, she immediately noticed that her mother's face was getting haggard, so she asked why.
"Your father has decided to undergo sex reassignment surgery. Ms. Li Min finally mustered up the courage to tell her daughter this secret that had been hidden in her heart for many years.
When her daughter heard the news, she was shocked and her heart was full of shame and doubts. Although she understood her father's decision, in the face of her mother's melancholy eyes, she decided to help relieve the family's financial pressure through work-study.
However, Ms. Li Min was not relieved by her daughter's support for sex reassignment surgery. Instead, she felt more guilty and blamed herself. She knows that her daughter is already working very hard to study outside, and now she has to worry about the family's living expenses, as a mother, she feels very helpless and distressed.
To realize Chen Houping's dream of transsexuality, the high cost of surgery has become the biggest obstacle. Ms. Li Min tried to apply for a loan of 100,000 yuan from the bank, hoping to use the money to pay for the surgery, but the loan was not approved due to a lack of sufficient collateral.
Desperate, Ms. Li Min could only ask relatives and friends for help with anxiety. However, when they learned that they had borrowed money for their husband's sex reassignment surgery, they all chose to refuse.
The successive disappointments made Ms. Li Min often suffer cynicism, white eyes and ridicule, which made her feel extremely sad, and tears fell like rain.
Seeing that his dream was about to be shattered, Chen Houping's mood also fell into a trough. He even had suicidal thoughts many times and put them into practice. At this time, it was his wife, Ms. Li Min, who found and saved him in time.
"Why do you want to save me, it's so painful for me to live like this!" Chen Houping cried, and his wife burst into tears, and the two hugged each other tightly, bearing the pain of life together.
Seeing her husband in excruciating pain, Li Min's heart felt like a sharp knife, and she knew that if Chen Houping could not successfully complete the sex reassignment operation, his life would be as short as a meteor.
Therefore, she was firm in her belief and was willing to put in all the efforts to fulfill her husband's last wish.
A plastic surgery hospital in Shenyang heard about their misfortune and generously donated money to help them and provide them with free surgical opportunities.
This is undoubtedly the gospel from heaven, Chen Houping was so excited, as if he would wake up with a smile in his dream.
On the appointed date, they walked into the hospital hand in hand, ready to undergo this fateful operation. On the eve of the operation, Chen Houping had already chosen a new name for himself - Chen Feifei.
Li Min waited anxiously outside the operating room, and she understood that the person who walked out of the operating room would no longer be the "he" of the past, but a new "she".
In 2006, Chen Houping, who was nearly half a hundred years old, finally got his wish and successfully completed gender reassignment surgery. After being discharged from the hospital, she wore gorgeous clothes, applied gorgeous lipstick, combed elegant curly hair, and returned to her hometown of Damintun Village as a new "Chen Feifei", attracting many surprised eyes.
Soon after, this blood-boiling process of transgender change caused a sensation in the Northeast. Major TV stations rushed to interview and report on Chen Feifei's legendary life, and she was also overwhelmed and invited to participate in the recording of various variety shows.
As a high-profile "transgender", Chen Feifei's social influence is increasing day by day. In order to prove her authenticity, Chen Feifei often deliberately shows the feminine charm of women in the show.
Every time his ex-wife Li Min watched from the side, she always showed admiration and relief, and she felt extremely happy that her husband had finally realized his dream.
However, as her work increased, Chen Feifei became more and more critical and headstrong. She began to demand accommodation in luxurious five-star hotels, set strict standards for the environment of the filming location, and even refused interviews from some lesser-known media outlets.
Faced with her former husband, but now she has transformed into such an image of a "strong woman", Li Min can't help but feel a little strange and at a loss.
Chen Feifei's fame has become more and more prominent, which has allowed her to finally say goodbye to the simple country life and buy a spacious and comfortable residence in the bustling city. She no longer accepts interviews from various media unreservedly as in the past, but is as strict as a "first-list star", and only chooses large media that can have a far-reaching impact to cooperate.
When asked if she had any plans to enter the marriage hall again, Chen Feifei always shook her head lightly and did not give a clear answer, but only emphasized that "marriage is a major event in life and needs to be carefully considered".
However, she made no secret of the fact that her future partner must be able to fully accept her "sister" Li Min, and Li Min also promised that no matter where Chen Feifei is, she will always be by her side.
The deep "sisterhood" between them is touching. However, married life is not child's play, and Chen Feifei's journey to find her ideal partner is still long.
Despite this, Chen Feifei and Li Min's children were not too troubled by their father's experience of gender transition. As long as the old people can stick to themselves and not harm others, how can they forcibly oppose it as children? Now, they have respectfully changed the name of Chen Feifei to "aunt."
No matter how glamorous they are outside, Chen Feifei and Li Min still return to Damintun Village from time to time to enjoy the quiet and peaceful old age in the countryside. Whenever the grandchildren are brought back to the village by their parents to visit the unique "sisters", the family gathers together for a shared relationship.
