In 1997, standing in front of his courtyard was a 55-year-old Sun Guitian, watching the endless stream of tourists, and the taste in his heart was intertwined. This courtyard has witnessed her journey from youth to the age of sixties, however, it has also become the heaviest regret of her life.
Years ago, 16-year-old Sun Guitian left acting school and returned to Beijing to care for his ailing adoptive mother. An adopted orphan and widow, she and her adoptive mother are like mother and daughter.
Right now, Sun Guitian's adoptive mother is sick in bed, and she accompanies her day and night, witnessing her weakness and suffering unspeakable pain in her heart. At that time, her family was poor, and she could only sell daily necessities and school supplies while setting up a stall to barely make ends meet. At the age of 26, she saved 26,000 yuan to buy a dilapidated courtyard house next to the Forbidden City, hoping to bring a prosperous life to her family.
Now, the adoptive mother has gray hair and her children are **. This courtyard house has become a wound in her heart that will never heal, and every time she sees the courtyard, Sun Guitian's heart stings.
In 1997, director Feng Xiaogang was attracted by the antique atmosphere of Sun Guitian's courtyard house and chose to shoot a film here, which made the 55-year-old Sun Guitian set foot in the film industry for the first time, and since then her acting career has begun. Director Feng's admiration for the atmosphere of the courtyard won Sun Guitian a role in the movie.
Sun Guitian, who was worried at first, unexpectedly became a film and television star. Later, "Family with Children" was on the air, and Sun Guitian successfully created the well-known role of "Grandma Liu Xing" and became famous in one fell swoop.
The old lady who was once unknown became popular instantly because of the role of "Grandma Liu Xing". Countless fans have sent letters and gifts, which made her feel inexplicably surprised. Sun Guitian found that this courtyard house not only changed the trajectory of her life, but also brought her unexpected acting opportunities. In the mood of attention and joy, she frequently participated in many well-known film and television works.
The momentary praise made her regard this courtyard house as a lucky star in her life.
Back at the age of 16, Sun Guitian left the theater and returned to Beijing because his adoptive mother was seriously ill. When she was a teenager, she was always taken care of by her adoptive mother, and the two were like mother and daughter.
In order to take care of his sick adoptive mother, Sun Guitian chose to give up his love for acting and return to Beijing. In her youth, she spent her days setting up a stall and staying at her adoptive mother's bedside at night. Seeing her adoptive mother's body getting weaker and weaker, she couldn't do anything about it.
When he was 16 years old, seeing his adoptive mother leave alone, Sun Guitian burst into tears, feeling unprecedented loneliness and helplessness. Since then, she has experienced two failed marriages, struggled to raise three children, and lived an extremely difficult life. She worked hard during the day and had to take care of the young children at night.
Whenever she hugged her daughter and looked at her innocent sleeping face, she always silently shed tears. Sun Guitian's body gradually shrank, no longer as tall as before, her hair became pale, and her face was covered with the marks of time, indicating that she had entered old age.
When she looked in the mirror, she thought that all her life's work seemed to be in vain. Due to the proximity of the courtyard house to the Forbidden City, its value skyrocketed. In the process of separating the family, in order to compete for this wealth, Sun Guitian's three children quarreled endlessly, and even the daughter cut off the relationship with her mother in order to get the courtyard.
In the year of the Spring Festival, the family was preparing a meal at the dining table, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense. The eldest son's husband and wife first proposed to have a courtyard house, on the grounds that the eldest son was the majority. The second son strongly objected, claiming that he took care of his mother at most and deserved a courtyard house. The conflict between the two sons is constantly intensifying and full of hostility.
The daughter stirred up trouble on the sidelines, which led to a complete collapse in the relationship between the three siblings. Sun Guitian was grief-stricken and ran back to the room alone. The last thing she wanted to see in her life happened: her own flesh and blood turned against each other because of property.
What made her even more sad was that her only son also passed away due to illness, which was a painful blow to her later life. With tears in her eyes, she watched her son's coffin go away, feeling that the fatigue and dedication of this life were meaningless.
Sun Guitian, who is in his 80s, is standing in front of the courtyard next to the Forbidden City with decadence and exhaustion at the moment. She was deeply remorseful for buying this courtyard house, because it not only destroyed her family, but also caused her to suffer a lot of hardship.
She stared at the courtyard, filled with the joys and sorrows of her life. The courtyard house, which once longed to bring a prosperous life to her family, has now become an indelible pain in her heart. She longs to reconcile with her daughter and regain the long-lost warmth of her family.
She knew that her life was running out, and she only hoped to feel the last rays of happiness in the remaining days. In this deep and emotional picture, we think together about the true value of family affection and wealth in life.
To summarize the full text, Sun Guitian's life is like a tortuous movie, she has experienced ups and downs in life, struggled and struggled, but the glory of wealth and career did not bring her ultimate happiness. In the end, the only thing she longed for was the warmth of family, but this warmth was completely shattered by the struggle for property. This story is not only a life experience, but also a deep reflection on the relationship between family and wealth. Perhaps while we are chasing our dreams and success, we should not ignore the most sincere emotions around us, cherish the warmth of our family, and make our lives more meaningful. Thank you for reading, let's reflect on life and live a truly happy life.
