On March 1, 2012, the famous soprano Lu Xiumei died of rectal cancer at the age of 55.
Her husband Zhao An and daughter have been accompanying her in the hospital, and at the last parting moment, the two cried bitterly.
Lu Xiumei is a soloist at the China Song and Dance Theatre, and she sang a series of familiar songs such as "Where is Spring", "Ode to the South Lake", "Villagers in the Countryside", "Golden Shuttle And Silver Shuttle", etc., which were deeply loved by the audience and appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala many times.
Zhao An is two years younger than Lu Xiumei and graduated from the Dance Academy. When the two fell in love, Zhao An was just an ordinary dancer. Lu Xiumei was two years older than Zhao An, and her status was also somewhat disparate, and despite the opposition, they still came together without hesitation.
After marriage, Lu Xiumei took on the big and small things in the family, and Zhao An only needed to work without distraction.
In 1984, Zhao An was transferred to CCTV as a director with outstanding talent. After that, he rose all the way in Taili, successively serving as the deputy director of the Literary and Art Center, the director of the Literary and Art Department, and the general director of the Spring Festival Gala four times.
Lu Xiumei was already quite good, and with the improvement of Zhao An's status, more people invited Lu Xiumei to perform. There are also many friends around them, and there are people who help Zhang Luo in big things and small things in the family, and Lu Xiumei is not used to such a day.
In 2002, Zhao Was imprisoned for accepting bribes.
In the days when Zhao An was serving his sentence, Lu Xiumei could be said to have tasted the warmth and coldness of human feelings.
The so-called friends around her were gone, the lively home became extremely deserted, and the old friends who had been in contact with her for many years were left. A certain star who had been cared for by Zhao An actually claimed not to know Zhao An.
Lu Xiumei lived alone with her daughter, and her performance activities were much less than before.
Many people are waiting for Lu Xiumei to file for divorce from Zhao An.
When Zhao An was beautiful, although he was good to his wife, lace news was never less.
Husband and wife were originally the same forest birds, and they flew separately in the face of great trouble. What's more, as a successful singer, Lu Xiumei will definitely have a better life after divorce.
Lu Xiumei is not divorced, she is bent on earning money to support her daughter. He did not file for divorce from Zhao An, did not appear in public or accepted reporters from reporters, and lived a quiet life, waiting for Zhao An to return home.
At the end of 2007, Zhao An was serving a prison sentence, but Lu Xiumei was diagnosed with rectal cancer.
From the discovery of rectal cancer to the final departure, Lu Xiumei has experienced more than 4 years of illness.
During her illness, Lu Xiumei has been hiding from her friends around her, afraid that everyone will worry about her, and even more afraid of trouble for everyone, and even went to remote areas and campuses many times to offer condolence performances.
After Zhao An was released from prison in 2008, he was very guilty in the face of his sick wife, and he did his best to save his wife.
Heaven forbid. Lu Xiumei still could not escape the clutches of cancer and came to the end of her life.
On February 28, 2012, Lu Xiumei's leaders went to the hospital to visit her.
At that time, Lu Xiumei had already experienced several rescues, but she tried to make an optimistic appearance and asked the leader what drama she could do recently.
In fact, at that time, she was already in unbearable pain all over her body. Zhao An has been sitting next to her to massage her to alleviate her pain, her daughter has also been holding her hand, and the family has enjoyed the final reunion and warmth together.
Two days later, Lu Xiumei passed away with a lot of regrets.
When Lu Xiumei fell into the trough of her life, she witnessed too many worlds, even if she suffered from cancer, she still chose to bear everything alone.
She kept all her suffering to herself, leaving only a shadow of the world.
