A familiar face left countless classic moments on the Spring Festival Gala stage and became an evergreen tree in the hearts of hundreds of millions of viewers. However, despite enjoying a high profile in front of the screen, her private life has always been kept low-key and rarely exposed to the public eye.
In the 37 years since her marriage, she and her husband have been close to each other and experienced ups and downs together, but they have never used their family as a capital for speculation. Now, she has turned around and become the leader of a full-level art troupe, continuing to exert her light and heat in the field of literature and art. So, how does she strike the perfect balance between career and family? What kind of life is she living now?
The turning point and decisive choice of the Spring Festival Gala
When on the Spring Festival Gala stage in 1993, Huang Xiaojuan and Pan Changjiang appeared hand in hand, one tall and one short, like the high and low notes in the notes, interweaving the applause and laughter of the audience.
Who still remembers that just a year ago, she was Zhao Benshan's right-hand partner? At that time, "I Want to Have a Family" made the audience burst into tears, and also allowed Zhao Benshan to see the infinite possibilities of working with her hand in hand.
But Huang Xiaojuan, the actress who shines on the stage, is also an independent woman in life. Just after the success of the sketch, she made an unexpected decision - to bid farewell to the Spring Festival Gala temporarily and go to university for further studies.
"Brother Benshan, this may be the last time we cooperate." Her words were like a stone, thrown into Zhao Benshan's heart, causing ripples. Zhao Benshan was puzzled and even doubted whether he had done something good enough. But Huang Xiaojuan's explanation is simple: she was admitted to Liaoning University of Culture and Art and wanted to further improve herself.
Although Zhao Benshan felt it was a pity, he also understood her decision. But he didn't expect that Huang Xiaojuan would appear again with a new partner in the Spring Festival Gala the next year. This made Zhao Benshan feel mixed, as if he had been betrayed by an old friend.
But Huang Xiaojuan did not deceive anyone. She did go to college, but when Pan Changjiang came to her with a new script, she felt it was an opportunity she couldn't refuse. So, she made her own choice and bore all the consequences.
Huang Xiaojuan has been like this since she was a child. Whether it's acting or getting married, she is the one who makes the decision. This character is inseparable from her upbringing.
A fierce dancer who came out of the mining area
In the mining area of Fuxin City, Huang Xiaojuan, the second daughter of the Huang family, is famous for her fierceness. In 1962, she was born into a bookish family, but her character had nothing to do with Wenjing.
Her father, a coal mining engineer who travels around all year round, may not have expected that his daughter would be so independent; and her mother, as a primary school teacher who supports half of the family, would not have expected that her second daughter would be so "uneasy".
When her mother was promoted to deputy director of the refractory fiber factory due to her outstanding abilities, Huang Xiaojuan and her sister shouldered the responsibility of taking care of her younger siblings. My brother is being bullied at school? Huang Xiaojuan will not sit idly by. She rushed into her brother's class and taught the bully a lesson. Although she was punished for it, she never regretted it.
When she was 11 years old, Huang Xiaojuan made another "big noise". She actually hid it from everyone, imitated her mother's handwriting and signed, and went through the transfer procedures for herself. When the mother found out on the day of the parent-teacher meeting that her daughter was no longer in the original school, she was really dumbfounded. Faced with Huang Xiaojuan's explanation of "I just want to be closer to you," the anger in her mother's heart instantly turned into helplessness and emotion.
Huang Xiaojuan has a special liking for singing and dancing, and her parents fully support her interest. However, the teachers at the school criticized this: "Huang Xiaojuan's academic performance is so good, it would be a pity not to take the college entrance examination!" But Huang Xiaojuan seems to have already made plans for her future. When she was in the second year of junior high school, she once again made a decision that surprised her parents - she was admitted to the student class of the Fuxin City Art Troupe.
"I want to learn Errenzhuan." Facing her parents, Huang Xiaojuan firmly stated her choice.She knows that this road may be full of hardships, but she is willing to work hard for her dream. As for her parents, although they were a little helpless about their daughter's "torture", they ultimately chose to support her.
Never hit the wall and never look back, a win-win story for love and career
When Huang Xiaojuan stands on the stage, her tall figure, beautiful face and good voice that seems to be born for singing always attract countless eyeballs.
Audiences in Fuxin City are familiar with this duo actor, and her name and image have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. But who would have thought that this actress who was so famous on the stage also had a marriage past that made her parents heartbroken.
Huang Xiaojuan has a strong and independent personality. After achieving some success in her career, her parents began to worry about her marriage. They were worried, which man would dare to marry such a daughter? Even if she is married, which man can tolerate her strong personality? However, love always comes quietly. Just when her parents were worried about her marriage, Huang Xiaojuan fell in love silently.
The other party’s surname is Li, and he is a businessman doing business in Liaoning. In the process of getting along, Huang Xiaojuan found that he was not only good-tempered and willing to make progress, but also honest and honest.
She decided that this was the person she was looking for, so she made a lifelong commitment to him without hesitation. When the parents learned the news, although they were unwilling to accept it, they could only accept their daughter's choice.
In 1986, 24-year-old Huang Xiaojuan entered the palace of marriage. Fortunately, she met a husband who supported her career development. Every time Huang Xiaojuan goes out to perform, her husband always silently takes on the burden of the family, allowing her to concentrate on her career.
Once, Huang Xiaojuan's father was ill and hospitalized, but she was unable to make it back from a performance in another place. After learning about it, the husband immediately drove his father-in-law to the hospital and comforted his mother-in-law, saying: "I will take good care of dad, don't worry. Don't tell Xiaojuan about this, so as not to distract her." These words made her Huang Xiaojuan's parents completely put aside their worries and were relieved that their daughter had found a good home.
"Mahjong Tofu": Son's Pacifier and the Spring Festival Gala Stage
In 1988, the birth of son Li He made the family's little life sweeter. As a mother, Huang Xiaojuan also decided to bid farewell to the stage temporarily and spend a year to accompany her child wholeheartedly. But the script of life is always unexpected. Just when she was immersed in the warmth of family, a phone call broke the peace.
The invitation from Liaoning TV Station was like a thunder in the spring. They hoped that Huang Xiaojuan could join hands with Zhao Benshan, who was in his prime, to perform "Mahjong Tofu" on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for any actor, but when Huang Xiaojuan looked at her son sucking a pacifier in her arms, the balance in her heart began to swing.
Her husband has always been her strongest support, and this time is no exception. He encouraged her to pursue her dreams and promised to take good care of the little baby at home with her father-in-law and mother-in-law. So Huang Xiaojuan boarded the train to Liaoning with her family's blessings and expectations.
’s rehearsal days were tense and fulfilling, but every time in the dead of night, thoughts of her children came flooding in. That heart-wrenching feeling made her unable to sleep or eat well, and she even wanted to give up this rare opportunity. But every time, she would think of her husband's firm eyes and his instruction: "The drama is bigger than the sky."
In the Liaoning Spring Festival Gala in 1989, Huang Xiaojuan and Zhao Benshan's "Mahjong Tofu" became a beautiful scenery. Her performance won applause and recognition from the audience, and also allowed her to take a more solid step on the road of art.
The low-key life of a Spring Festival Gala regular and the "blackmail" scandal

The collaboration with Pan Changjiang has become a favorite of countless viewers, and the image of tall and short characters has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It is said that in 1990, Zhao Benshan was looking for partners for his sketch "Blind Date". Unfortunately, Song Dandan, Yue Hong, Zhao Lirong and others were busy and declined the invitation.

The low-key life of a Spring Festival Gala regular and the "blackmail" scandal
When Huang Xiaojuan stood on the stage of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for the first time, she may not have imagined that this stop would last thirty years. The collaboration with Pan Changjiang has become a favorite of countless viewers, and the image of tall and short characters has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
It is said that in 1990, Zhao Benshan was looking for partners for his sketch "Blind Date". Unfortunately, Song Dandan, Yue Hong, Zhao Lirong and others were busy and declined the invitation.
At this time, the Spring Festival Gala director Huang Yihe's words reminded Zhao Benshan of Huang Xiaojuan. And Huang Xiaojuan never expected that this great opportunity would come to her.
Time jumps to 2001, and Huang Xiaojuan’s life once again ushered in a turning point. Not only did she put on a military uniform, she also became the deputy leader of the art troupe. But at the same time, she always kept a low profile and even warned her son Li Hyuk not to mention her name outside. Li He remembered this humility and sincerity and gave her an alias - "Zhang Guiying".
However, Huang Xiaojuan is famous for her right and wrong. Although Huang Xiaojuan keeps a low profile, she still cannot escape some unwarranted accusations. In 2006, an accident plunged Huang Xiaojuan into a blackmail scandal.
Her mother was knocked down by a middle school student while shopping for groceries, resulting in a fracture of her left calf. Because her mother suffered from diabetes, the doctor decided to lower her blood sugar first and then perform surgery. Huang Xiaojuan took the opportunity to transfer her mother to the Shenyang Military Region Hospital. The cost of the operation was naturally higher than before.
This was a reasonable thing, but when the parents of the middle school student learned that the old man they bumped into was Huang Xiaojuan's mother, they made a fuss and accused Huang Xiaojuan of using her celebrity status to "blackmail" her. For a time, Huang Xiaojuan was pushed to the forefront.
Relatives and friends urged her to file a lawsuit to clear her name, but Huang Xiaojuan chose to remain silent. She firmly believes that those who are clean will be clean themselves, and the eyes of the masses are sharp. Facts have proved that her choice was correct. As time went by, the truth gradually emerged, and people realized that they had wrongly blamed this low-key artist.
The spring breeze comes again, the battle with fate
On the 2019 Spring Festival Gala stage, Huang Xiaojuan and a group of young actors performed the sketch "Platform", which won bursts of applause from the audience. However, who knows how much sadness and tears are hidden behind this smiling actor?
Back in 2008, it was a troubled year for Huang Xiaojuan. Her brother, who is 6 years younger than her, was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer. This news was like a bolt from the blue, causing Huang Xiaojuan's world to collapse instantly.
She tried her best to find a chance for her brother, but fate closed the door ruthlessly. 44 days later, her brother closed his eyes in endless pain, and Huang Xiaojuan's heart was broken.
The death of my younger brother made my mother miserable. Although my father looked strong on the outside, his inner pain was unspeakable. In less than a year, my father also passed away in grief. Huang Xiaojuan, who lost two close relatives one after another, fell into deep depression. Fortunately, her son comforted and accompanied her: "Mom, you have to be strong, grandma still needs you."
Thinking of her elderly mother, Huang Xiaojuan endured her grief and took her mother to the hospital. Surrounded by good care. She traveled around with her mother, using time and love to slowly heal the trauma in the old man's heart. Under Huang Xiaojuan's careful care, her mother gradually came out of the shadow of losing her son and husband.
Life dealt Huang Xiaojuan a heavy blow, but she did not choose to give in. She takes care of her mother while pursuing her acting career. From "Army Wife Goes to the Island" in 2008, "Huang Dou Huang" in 2009, to "Platform" again on the Spring Festival Gala stage in 2019, Huang Xiaojuan has proven everything with her strength and persistence.
Years of stage, unchanging feelings - Spring Festival Gala memories and family chapters
When Huang Xiaojuan shared the stage with young actors, recreating the style of "The Balcony", her high-spirited appearance seemed to go back in time, making it difficult to believe that she was already in her sixties year. This scene, like old wine, evoked long memories of countless viewers.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. In the blink of an eye, Huang Xiaojuan has been with us for 21 years on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala. Those familiar figures and those warm laughter seem like yesterday. And that photo with her mother has become an eternal treasure in her heart. In the photo of
, the family is reunited and laughing. She is leaning next to her mother, smiling so brightly. But who would have thought that this would be the last photo taken with my mother.
Just a week later, Huang Xiaojuan's mother's death made Huang Xiaojuan heartbroken. Diabetic complications, like ruthless claws, took away my mother's life.At that moment, she deeply realized the fragility and impermanence of life. Although I knew that birth, old age, illness and death were natural laws, and my mother had passed away, the grief in my heart was indescribable.
After her mother left, her son Li Hyuk became her biggest support. His careful care and thoughtfulness made Huang Xiaojuan feel the warmth of home. Seeing her son mature and steady day by day, she gradually let go of the grief in her heart. Yes, when our parents are here, we always think that the future is long but we don’t realize that time is so fleeting; when our parents leave, we suddenly realize that life is so short and there is only one way to go back.
In her later years, Huang Xiaojuan began to enjoy the peace and tranquility of life. She is no longer busy with the splendor of the stage but immersed in the warmth of family. Although her son did not inherit her acting career, he became an excellent soldier, which is one of the things she is most proud of. Whenever she thinks of her son's outstanding performance in the army, she feels extremely gratified and proud.
For Huang Xiaojuan, the honor of appearing in the Spring Festival Gala 12 times is certainly worth remembering, but what makes her even more proud is that she spent 20 years cultivating a good son.
This maternal love is as warm and long-lasting as the sunshine in spring, and this pride is as sweet and deep as the fruits in autumn. On the stage of time, Huang Xiaojuan interprets unchanging feelings and the true meaning of life in her own way.
