In the spring of 2012, there was unexpected and surprising news in the entertainment industry: Xie Lan, who had insisted on Dink for 12 years, was pregnant. The news came unexpectedly, but it made sense to think about it.
After all, there are too many untold and heartwarming stories behind this.
If you want to talk about this, you have to start with Granny Shelan's birthday. At that time, Xie Lan was filming in the crew, and she couldn't pull away. If you were someone else, you might just deal with it and be done.
But Shi Xiaohong is different, this Shaanxi tough guy is stunned to hold this birthday banquet lively, vividly.
"At that time, my mother took my hand and praised Shi Xiaohong vigorously." Xie Lan later talked about it, and his eyes were full of light. She didn't expect that her husband not only invited a large table of people, but also used sign language to chat with his deaf and mute parents.
Although she was not there at the scene, she could imagine the warm scene just by listening to the description.
It was this seemingly ordinary birthday banquet that became a key moment to melt the layer of "Dink's ice" in Xie Lan's heart.
"Actually, we Dink, it's all because of me." Xie Lan said frankly. After "Mansion Gate" became popular that year, she put all her energy into her career.
And Shi Xiaohong supported her without saying a word, and was stunned to accompany her for 12 years. This fulfillment, to be honest, there are really not many men who can do it.
So on April 17, 2012, this special day, Xie Lan told Shi Xiaohong: "I want a child. Such a simple sentence made Shi Xiaohong so excited that she almost jumped up.
Xie Lan said that it was the first time she saw this tough guy husband cry.
Later, someone asked Xie Lan: Do you regret it? She smiled and shook her head: "How can you regret it?" Dandan is the crystallization of my love with Xiaohong, and it is our best work. "
This story teaches us that sometimes a decision is changed, not because of external pressure, but because of those seemingly insignificant moments of warmth in life.
12 years is not long, not short, but it is the love that Shi Xiaohong has proved with her actions over the years that finally made Xie Lan willingly step into a new chapter of a family of three from the world of two.
You see, what a simple transition from Dink to having children is clearly the best commentary on love: true love is always moisturizing and silent.
Speaking of Xie Lan and Shi Xiaohong's acquaintance, I have to rewind back to the set of "Yellow Earth and Blue Land". At that time, Xie Lan was still a southern girl who loved to nest in the corner and read books.
Shi Xiaohong is already a well-known tough guy in Shaanxi. These two people stood together, saying that they had a sense of CP, but I was afraid that no one would believe it.
But don't say it, fate is so magical.
During filming, Xie Lan fell ill. For now, just find a random takeaway brother to deliver some medicine. But in those days, Shi Xiaohong worked hard.
bought the pills, and was worried that it would not be appropriate to rush into the actress's room, so he knocked lightly on the door, said "The medicine is at the door" and left.
This matter has to be put on hold in the current idol drama, which is the standard flirtatious bridge section for the male protagonist. But in Xie Lan's eyes, he felt that this tough guy was strange and heartwarming. However, she was determined to "not look for insiders" at that time, so she insisted on putting this warmth into the category of "good big brother".
The turnaround came a bit dramatically. Shi Xiaohong went to Changchun to play, but was in a car accident. Although there is nothing major to the person, this experience really scared him a lot.
Probably because the feeling of "life is impermanent" was too real, he took advantage of the strength of the wine and called Xie Lan.
"Xie Lan, if you marry me, I will be good to you for the rest of your life." It's a straight shot, but it's sincere enough. Shi Xiaohong hung up the phone after speaking, and added: "I will wait for you in Beijing, and if you come, it means that you have agreed."
What kind of marriage proposal is this, it's a big gamble. But Xie Lanzhen went, and she was probably also impressed by this reckless tough guy. In the wind of Beijing, the corners of the clothes of the two people fluttered, which also blew away Xie Lan's obsession with "not looking for insiders".
In 2000, they were licensed. Shi Xiaohong later said: "I just like the way she reads quietly." And Xie Lan also admitted: "I was touched by his iron man tenderness."
You see, this is true love. is not the vigor in idol dramas, but the warmth of the long stream. A tough guy who cares silently, a girl who reads quietly, just became each other's destiny.
This story of acquaintance sounds like an accident, but when you think about it, it's all inevitable. After all, true love is never as simple as love at first sight, but in the details of life, it is inevitable that it has been proven by time.
In 2001, after the broadcast of "Mansion Gate", Xie Lan became popular all of a sudden.
In that era when "not marrying and having children is selfish", Xie Lan and Shi Xiaohong's choice was really surprising: they decided to dink.
To be honest, this decision shocked both inside and outside the circle. But the most unexpected thing is Shi Xiaohong's attitude: "If your daughter-in-law wants to focus on her career, then focus on it."
is such a simple sentence, but it shows his full support for his wife's career.
This is a simple support, to put it bluntly, it is to spoil the daughter-in-law with practical actions. Other actors have lost weight during filming, but Xie Lan is good, under Shi Xiaohong's careful care, her face is a lot rounder.
What's even more heartwarming is that Shi Xiaohong learned sign language by herself, just to be able to chat with her deaf and dumb parents-in-law. You know, it's not easy to learn sign language, but he just learns it little by little and practices it over and over again.
The little warmth in life is also inadvertently revealed. Once Shi Xiaohong wanted to surprise Xie Lan and hid in the cabinet at home and waited for her to come back. Fortunately, Xie Lan didn't notice that he choked enough in the cabinet before he came out.
This kind of unreliable little romance makes their two-person world enjoyable.
If you don't play mahjong, you shouldn't be paid, and you run home after the play. Such days look simple, but they are rare in the entertainment industry. No wonder so many people envy their "fairy couple".
Looking back, these 12 years of Dink's life are not so much a choice of career as a fulfillment of each other. Xie Lan fulfilled Shi Xiaohong's support for her career, and Shi Xiaohong also used silent actions to fulfill Xie Lan's determination to chase her dreams.
Isn't this what love looks like at its best? It is not a vigorous alliance, but mutual understanding and silent support in ordinary days.
In 2012, the birth of Dandan made this small world of only two people lively. Who would have thought that Xie Lan, who once said "don't want children for the sake of her career", has now become a "treasure mother".
The change came unexpectedly, but it came so naturally.
Interestingly, it was Shi Xiaohong who said: "You can rest assured that you will film, and I will take the child." The result was good, Xie Lan, an actress who was dedicated to her career, was completely ignited by motherhood.
Let's take the incident of the 100 days of Dandan. A crew came to the door and offered super generous conditions: bring the baby into the group, arrange the house, and watch the children whenever they want.
This was put on hold, and Xie Lan must have agreed without saying a word. But this time, she looked at the swaddling balls and shook her head decisively: "No, I won't go."
Since then, Xie Lan has rarely taken on drama appointments, and basically takes the baby at home. And Shi Xiaohong shouldered the burden of supporting her family, and often flew around the country. Once, he rushed back to Beijing overnight from Xinjiang to surprise his wife and children.
As a result, when I got home, I found that I didn't bring the key, and no one answered when I knocked on the door until one o'clock in the morning, so I had to go to the hotel. When I woke up the next day, I missed even the time to send my son to school.
It sounds like an oolong incident, but this kind of longing was not really experienced until Xie Lan went out to film for 20 days. That time, Shi Xiaohong went to visit the class with Dandan, and as soon as Xie Lan saw her son, she couldn't control her tears.
That night, she locked herself in her room and burst into tears.
"That's what it's like to be a parent." Sheeran said. Since then, she simply announced in 2014 that she would leave the film and television industry for the time being and concentrate on her husband and children.
All these changes make people sigh: life is really full of accidents. The two people who were thinking about Dink to the end redefined the meaning of life because of the arrival of a small life.
No matter how important the career is, it can't match the lethality of a child's smile.
But the most touching thing is that after they became parents, they still maintained their sweetness towards each other. When Shi Xiaohong is not at home, Xie Lan will say to her son: "Dad went to make money to support us."
And every time Shi Xiaohong goes home, the first thing is to see if his son has eaten well.
This is probably the best parenting experience: parents love each other, and children can grow up healthily in an atmosphere of love. Xie Lan and Shi Xiaohong used their own way to interpret what is the happy life of "bringing a baby party".
In 2017, Xie Lan, who had been silent for three years, returned to the screen with the "little follower" Dandan. This time it wasn't acting, but participating in a singing show. In the stands, Shi Xiaohong and her son sat in the audience, and the picture was very warm.
Xiao Dandan also grew up, and talked to his mother on stage with a milky voice, which warmed up the atmosphere of the scene. Who would have thought that this little guy who made Xie Lan give up the peak of his career has now become her best partner.
The little things in life are the most true. Once Xie Lan was about to be on the show, Shi Xiaohong didn't say a word and began to shine her shoes. Not a pair, but all her shoes.
As I wiped it, the beads of sweat on my forehead came down. Xie Lan watched from the side, and wanted to take pictures of this warm scene.
Funnily enough, in the end, Sheeran didn't wear these polished shoes at all. But it doesn't matter, what matters is that heart, that kind of favor that has been around for 22 years.
In 2021, the two will also collaborate on a new drama, and they are known as "the strongest husband and wife" by insiders. This former Dink couple is now both career and family, and even has a cute "assist".
Looking back on the past 22 years, from deciding to Dink to having a noble son, from the peak of his career to his husband and children, and then to returning to the screen, the story of Xie Lan and Shi Xiaohong is simply a textbook-level model of happiness.
Their marriage tells us that the so-called "from the beginning to the end" is not to stick to the rules, but to find the most suitable way to get along with each other at different stages of life.
Today, Xie Lan often says: "Dandans are my best work." As for Shi Xiaohong, she still maintains a bald head because her wife likes it. These little things have woven their 22-year happiness code.
What kind of password is this, to put it bluntly: love must have an attitude, and life must have temperature.
