Time is like a peddler who keeps shouting in your ear. in a twinkling of an eye, Zhou Huajian, who has sang with us for countless nights, has also entered the threshold of 60.
Recently, photos of him and his wife, Kangzilan, have gone viral on the Internet. You know what? It's not big news, but someone started pointing fingers at the couple on the Internet because of their appearance and age.
Some netizens said: "how do you think it doesn't match?" Some come directly: "this wife, why does it look like his mother?" Others are more straightforward: "they stand together as if they were mother and son."
You see, this is the reality, even if a man's partner is a little older and his appearance has changed a bit, someone will immediately come up and laugh at him. It can be said that Kangzilan has been criticized over the years.
But, you know what? Zhou Huajian and Kangzilan are actually of the same age. Their love story is not as simple as what the outside world sees.
Next, let me take you back to 1985, when Zhou Huajian was just a nobody, making a living by singing in a folk song restaurant. And Kangzilan, like a wisp of spring breeze, did not know when he entered his world.
At that time, the lights in the restaurant were dim and smoky, but whenever Zhou Huajian picked up the microphone, he always attracted some attention. Concubine is one of those eyes. She sat quietly in the corner and listened to him sing over and over again. Sometimes she brings friends, sometimes she comes alone.
As time went by, Zhou Huajian also noticed the girl who often came to listen to him sing. About the second time Kangzilan came to hear him sing, he sang more attentively and emotionally. A month later, he plucked up his courage and walked up to Kangzilan for the first time. "I'll take you home on my motorcycle," he said in a ruffian tone at that time. "
Kang Cuilan smiled and replied simply," Okay." In this way, an unusual love quietly opened.
At first, their life was not easy. In those days, Zhou Huajian was just a small singer, and their lives were barely supported by Kangzilan's salary.
The rent, water and electricity bills, and all the miscellaneous expenses of the family were paid for by Kangzilan. Not to mention, at that time, during the Spring Festival, they could not even afford flowers. Zhou Huajian played the guitar and sang songs, and the two simply lived.
But did you know that even with such a simple life, they are very happy. Their love deepens slowly on this day. Until half a year later, they decided to get married. There is no big show, there is no special ceremony, even on the wedding day, Zhou Huajian is still singing in the restaurant.
It was not until the end of the show that he remembered that he was going to get married the next day and hurried to ask for leave. Even the wedding clothes are makeshift. Zhou Huajian bought a pair of trousers casually, and Kangzilan's wedding dress was borrowed.
Part IV: The Takeoff of Career and the Test of Marriage
In this way, the lives of the two people slowly improved. Zhou Huajian's singing began to be recognized by people, and his career began to take off. However, with the growth of fame, Zhou Huajian began to become busy, sometimes even ignoring the family Kang Cuilan. He felt that as a star, the outside world attracted him more.
During this time, their marriage also encountered a test. Once, Kang Zilan tried to talk to Zhou Huajian about his family, hoping that he could spend more time with himself and his children, but Zhou Huajian felt bound. He even said, "Home is my biggest burden."
As time went on, there were more and more contradictions between the two. Although Zhou Huajian's career is at its peak, his family seems to be less and less like a home. Kang tried to communicate many times, but Zhou Huajian was always impatient, and their feelings became more and more tense.
Conflict and understanding
With the prosperity of Zhou Huajian's career, he devotes almost all his time to his work, and family life becomes more and more like an encumbrance to him. Kangzilan tried to understand and support, but she was also flesh and blood, and she began to feel lonely and neglected.
Every attempt to discuss family problems with Zhou Huajian ended in his impatience and indifference. Kangzilan's heart was full of loss, but she didn't give up. She knew that this family was the place she was willing to give everything for.
Once, when Zhou Huajian was busy out of town, Kangzilan called him, hoping to hear some warm words. However, Zhou Huajian's response was cold. "I'm very busy right now. Can we not talk about it?" The silence on the other end of the phone was the sound of Kangzilan's heartbreak.
Redefine family and love
However, just when their marriage seemed to be about to hit the rocks, something happened that completely changed Zhou Huajian's view. Once, he won an important award out of town, and when he was excited, he called Kangzilan to share his joy. Kangzilan replied, "your son fell at school today and needs stitches." At that moment, Zhou Huajian realized that whether he was successful or not, home would always be his haven, and he began to rethink his responsibility to his family.
Since then, Zhou Huajian began to try to change. He reduced the amount of work he went out and spent as much time as possible with his family. He began to participate in the growth of his children and the daily life of Kanzilan. Slowly, the distance between them began to shorten, and the family atmosphere became more warm and harmonious.
End
At the end of the story, Zhou Huajian and Kang Zilan use their experience to tell us that love is not only the exchange of emotions, but also the courage to lend a helping hand to each other when they need it, and the courage to walk side by side in the wind and rain. Their story, although experienced countless tests and conflicts, but in the end, they chose to understand and tolerance, chose to grow old together.
Now they may no longer be young, but the years they have passed together, every moment of laughter and tears, are the most precious memories. Zhou Huajian once said in an interview: "Real love is that even if the world ends, I will choose to face it with you." This is their love, simple and pure, firm and lasting.
Now, when we see every spring and age that Zhou Huajian and Kang Zilan have gone through hand in hand, it is not difficult to find that true love requires giving and sacrifice. In this seemingly ordinary but extraordinary story, we see the power of love and the warmth of the family.
