One day in 1987, Gong Li poured out her deep feelings for him to Zhang Yimou word by word with more than 40 pieces of letterhead. Her longing and attachment are evident between the lines.
Over the years, the two have gotten along very well in film shooting, and Gong Li has also been deeply fascinated by Zhang Yimou's style and talent. However, Zhang Yimou already has a wife, but despite this, Gong Li still can't control the turmoil in his heart.
Zhang Yimou's wife Xiao Hua accidentally discovered his love letter, and immediately became angry and went directly to question Zhang Yimou, hoping that he could give an explanation. However, Zhang Yimou didn't want to quarrel with her, so he chose to divorce directly.
After the divorce, Zhang Yimou and Gong Li quickly came together. The young and beautiful Gong Li is full of longing and expectation for the future, eager to spend sweet time with Zhang Yimou and form a warm and happy family.
Gong Li's parents are adamantly opposed to their romance and cannot accept the reality of their only daughter being with a married man. Gong Li turned a blind eye to this, she had fallen into deep love.
In order to be with Zhang Yimou, Gong Li did not hesitate to break with her parents. Although she was kicked out of the house, she still lived firmly with Zhang Yimou.
Gong Li is full of expectations and happiness, and Zhang Yimou pursues the dream of growing old together. However, Zhang Yimou never thought about marrying her, and Gong Li offered to marry many times, but Zhang Yimou always refused in a perfunctory way.
For eight long years, Gong Li has been waiting for Zhang Yimou to fulfill his promise, but he has never waited for his paper marriage letter.
Year after year, Gong Li became more and more aware that her relationship with Zhang Yimou could not lead to happiness, so she had to choose to break up. Soon after Zhang Yimou left Gong Li, he had a new relationship with other women and formed a new family.
Faced with all this, Gong Li felt helpless, and she began to reflect on the reckless choices she made when she was young.
Perhaps because of the loneliness, Gong Li married another man shortly after leaving Zhang Yimou. But this hastily started married life was not a happy one, and after only 14 years, the two divorced.
Gong Li once again suffered the pain of divorce.
Not long ago, Gong Li's sister unfortunately suffered from a terminal illness that was difficult to ** and passed away soon. And a few months after her sister's death, Gong Li's father was also diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Despite the hospital's best efforts, it was not possible to save his life.
The death of her parents brought great grief to Gong Li and her mother, especially for Gong Li's elderly mother, and the blow was even heavier. The old man, who was originally in good spirits, suddenly became decadent, and the hope of life seemed to be dashed.
At the age of 98, the mother's physical and mental state is declining and requires frequent care and companionship.
In order to take care of her elderly mother, Gong Li resolutely put down all the work at hand and focused on her mother's care and care.
Gong Li will take care of her elderly mother wholeheartedly, and she hopes that her mother can spend the last stage of her life happily.
Gong Li gave up her glamorous career in the entertainment industry and stayed with her elderly mother for a long time. She always tries to make her mother happy, and she will take the initiative to invite her family to come to her house.
Under her careful care, the old mother gradually regained the joy of life, and her physical condition gradually improved, which made Gong Li feel deeply relieved and happy.
In order to pursue her love, Gong Li's relationship with her family broke down, she was kicked out of the house by her parents, and she was estranged from her family for a time. However, over time, these pains and misunderstandings were eventually healed.
As she grew older, Gong Li gradually became more sober and mature, and she began to realize the importance of family and took the initiative to reconnect with her family and take care of them.
Gong Li often went home to visit her old mother, giving her meticulous care and care, and the relationship between the two became closer and closer. She also regularly contacts her three brothers to find out how they are doing.
Because Gong Li's brothers have a difficult life, she will give financial support when they need it to help them tide over financial difficulties.
Gong Li has a very close relationship with her third sister-in-law, and she cares for and helps take care of their children. Gong Li became the main support of the family's economy, bringing the once broken family back to a harmonious scene.
Gradually, she took over the role of her father and became the true supporter of the family.
Gong Li has lost herself because of love, gone through many detours, and experienced pain and confusion. But the death of her family made her suddenly start to re-examine what really matters in life.
So she decided to turn back and use her own way to make up for the regrets with her family.
In fact, in the process of growing up, everyone will experience the confusion and blind obedience of their youth. We will make all kinds of wrong choices for the sake of our feelings and ideals, and then we will understand the preciousness of our family in the pain and lessons.
When he was young and frivolous, he paid the price for love, but in exchange for deeper regret and understanding for his family.
On the road of life, what is more worth cherishing is family affection, rather than love itself. We must learn to experience family affection and cherish everyone around us who accompanies us and never abandons us. Sobering up and turning back in time is a process that each of us must go through.
Only by giving up those things that should not be insisted on can we meet the true happiness in the journey of life with peace of mind.
