Who was the original match of the king of gamblers? When she was young, Li Wanhua was the most beautiful woman in Macao. She was born in a famous family with rich background. After the king of gamblers, Stanley Ho, came to Macao, he launched a crazy pursuit of Li Wanhua. Finally, Li Wanhua was moved and the two married.
Compared with the other three wives, Li Wanhua, the original wife who accompanied the gambling king, was much desolate. When he fled to Macao in 1941, he had only 10 Hong Kong dollars. In order to survive, this poor young man worked in Lianchang company and made a living. It was in the process of working that he met Li Wanhua.
Li Wanhua is young, beautiful and has a distinguished family background. Her father was a senior official in Portugal, and her father was the only notary in Macao at that time, holding a lot of power. Li Wanhua, a young woman, is known as "the first beauty in Macao street" because of her excellent appearance and family background. When Li Wanhua was young, there were many excellent young men around her, and there were countless people pursuing her.
When he first met Li Wanhua, he was shocked and fell in love at first sight. In order to move Li Wanhua's heart, he did everything he could. He specialized in learning Portuguese. After school and after work, he would go out with Li Wanhua. In the face of such a fierce pursuit, Li Wanhua has a good impression on the handsome Mr. ho.
When Li Wanhua was 18 years old, she married Mr. ho. Mr. ho is a very talented and intelligent man. After marriage, he borrowed Li Wanhua's family power to accumulate contacts and learn business, and soon earned the first bucket of gold, a total of 1 million Australian dollars. Over the next few decades, Mr Ho's wealth has doubled. Thanks to Li Wanhua's help, he has become a famous' gambling king '.
The moment they got married was the beginning of Ho's success and Li's tragedy. When she was 32 years old, she suddenly fell ill and had to eat liquid food. She also lost a lot of weight. After only taking care of her for a short time, he was impatient, so he entrusted Li Wanhua to the nurse and went out to have fun on his own.
During Li Wanhua's illness, Mr. ho had a showdown and wanted to buy another room, but her retort was of no help. In the end, she gave up completely and did nothing about it. No one knows Li Wanhua's helplessness. Who is willing to share her husband with others? Mr Ho has married three more women, and Li Wanhua has already been disheartened. Even if Li Wanhua compromised with her fate, heaven would not let her go. Her son he Youguang died in a car accident in Portugal, and her newly divorced daughter he Chaoying became insane after hearing about it.
The fate of the gambler's original match is a pity: why do the women who get married often have a bad life? Li Wanhua was miserable in her old age, her husband was unkind, her children were withered, and the only two daughters left were not allowed to be reused. She was unable to eat for a long time and died in Hong Kong in 2004. Looking back on the first half of her life, what a wonderful woman she was. She wanted to find a good person to share the wind and rain. Unexpectedly, he brought all the wind and rain.
In 1957, however, Li Wanhua suddenly suffered from colitis, which could not be cured by many famous doctors. In addition, it caused other complications. He had to remove his stomach and take medicine for a long time. He could only eat liquid food. His weight once dropped from 115 pounds to 70 pounds. In 1973, Li Wanhua was in a car accident in Portugal. He suffered a serious brain injury and was in a coma for a whole month. The third daughter, Chao Xian, recalls: "when her mother woke up, she had lost most of her memory, had no idea how to eat for a long time, and had difficulty in moving. '
Is the Li Wanhua family being plotted
Portugal had a monogamous system many years ago. Although Macao could still be polygamous according to the laws of the Qing Dynasty, in Li Wanhua's mind, she had no doubt that she would be a couple all her life. If there were no such accidents, she could stand shoulder to shoulder with her husband like a kapok. You are like a knife, a sword and a halberd. I am a bright red flower and a brave torch.
But life can never be assumed. Especially in those days, the space left by history for women was always cramped, like a dance that couldn't be moved. They could only frown and close their sleeves.
On the 10th anniversary of her marriage, Li Wanhua was only 28 years old. They had three women and a man. The beauty of her life was just a prelude. She contracted a strange disease. Macao doctors were at a loss. At that time, the traffic condition was bad. Mr. ho sent her to the UK bravely, and then diagnosed that she was suffering from colitis.
Under the medical conditions at that time, the disease was very difficult to treat, but it was not an incurable disease. However, it may have caused complications, and Li Wanhua could not cure the disease all the time. From then on, he was bedridden for a long time, taking medicine, and could only eat liquid food. His weight dropped from 115 pounds to 70 pounds, his face was pale, his appearance was haggard, and his beauty gradually faded.
At that time, they were still a loving couple. Her husband, Mr. Ho, held her hand in front of the hospital bed, told her jokes, amused her and told her that she was still beautiful.
But gradually, he appeared less and less, and after a period of time, the atmosphere at home became particularly strange.
On this day, Mr. ho came to Li Wanhua's parents' house seriously and talked with his mother-in-law about marrying another concubine.
My son-in-law is no longer the smiling but talented young man. Although he is only in his thirties, he is already the famous gambling king of Macao, Mr. ho. His daughter has been bedridden for many years. His family is Portuguese. When he married his daughter, his son-in-law agreed to follow the Portuguese law. But now he is such a gentleman He firmly told himself that he was Chinese and it was not illegal to marry his second wife according to the Qing Dynasty laws.
No one knows what the specific content of this closed door conversation is, but the result of the story is that Li Wanhua nodded her head in the hospital bed and agreed, so Mr. ho married his second wife.
It's like her last appearance, like the farewell performance of a famous actress's life. The future is no longer concerned. Li Wanhua, alone in the high house compound in Macao, continues and bears it silently.
A few years later, Li Wanhua was in a car accident in Portugal. His brain was severely damaged. When he woke up, he had lost most of his memory, didn't know how to eat for a long time, and it was difficult to move.
Eight years later, Li Wanhua's only son, he Youguang, went to Lisbon, Portugal to have dinner with his father, he Hongshen. On the way home, they were killed in a car accident. In despair, Li Wanhua, who had been ill for many years, was unable to get up. From then on, she was exhausted.
Many years later, the king of gamblers has three aunts, four aunts, and nearly ten lovers. The third aunts are still Li Wanhua's personal care, and many people call them Li Wanhua's personal recommendation. Who knows the truth? After all, no one dares to say.
Bad luck never stops. Li Wanhua and Ho's eldest daughter, Ho Chaoying, can almost be regarded as the most beautiful gambler. At a young age, she was selected by Fortune magazine's "top 50 women in the global business world" and made great achievements in art.
Her father ordered her to marry Xiao Baicheng, the son of Xiao Ming, the king of funeral in Hong Kong. Shortly after her divorce, she was killed in a car accident by her younger brother. She was furious and insane. She died at the age of 65. The funeral still had to be undertaken by her ex husband's family, and her ex husband had already died several years before her.
When Li Wanhua died, she was already in her eighties, but in her long life, it seemed that only 30 years had passed, and the rest of her life was like a slow night leak - one drop, one watch, two watch, one year, one hundred years. It's a long time. It's a lonely moment! After her death, the funeral standard was very high, and Mr. Ho was 82 years old, running around for her funeral.
He wrote an obituary for her in person. He called her his beloved wife. In the family ranking, there were no three aunts, nor the children of three aunts. This is probably the only 'only' that he got in decades. Since then, he has never held hands or looked at her. He has lived and died two years ago. He can only care for each other in the dream of an old gambling king, but he has tears.
As for Li Wanhua's tragic experience, there is a saying that he was plotted.
