Although the Paris Olympics has passed, people's enthusiasm for discussing Guo Jingjing has not diminished in the slightest.

Everyone envied her for being a winner in life. Not only was she successful in her career, she also became a FINA referee. The key point is that after she married into a wealthy family, her position was stable, and even her husband became her supporting role. People called him "Mr. of diving champion Guo Jingjing".

Today we are going to introduce Xi Mengyao, who also married into a wealthy family and now has a sweet life and a stable family. So how did she do it?

01 From an unconfident "skinny monkey" to the "Oriental Sophie Marceau"

Xi Mengyao was born in a wealthy family in Shanghai in March 1989. She is an only child, and her parents were too busy with work to take care of her, so they sent her to live with her grandparents.

Xi Mengyao has had mild anorexia since she was a child. She is thin and has grown taller but not fatter. When she first entered middle school, her height reached 170 cm. She stood out among her classmates, so she was often laughed at by other children as a skinny monkey, which made her very inferior.

In order to make her more confident, her parents enrolled her in dance, painting and other training classes, hoping that she would communicate more with her friends, but she always skipped classes and eventually nothing happened.

When she was 16 years old, her height had reached 180cm, so her parents enrolled her in the fashion major at Donghua University, hoping that she could enter the fashion circle in the future with this figure.

In June 2009, Xi Mengyao's mother learned that the talent show "Come on! Oriental Angels" was recruiting, so she encouraged her daughter to participate.

Unexpectedly, it was this unintentional action that made her future career successful.

On the day she participated in the competition, there happened to be two foreign friends watching her competition in the audience and were immediately attracted by her catwalk.

The two French friends are Sophie Marceau's former agent and his wife. After looking up her relevant information, they told Xi Mengyao that they would vigorously promote her.

Through this talent show, she made it into the top 5 in the Shanghai region. In the same year, she participated in the World Model Elite Contest and made it into the top 15, thus officially entering the modeling industry.

In the next few months, her fame grew faster than ever before. She quickly became China's fourth-ranked supermodel after Liu Wen, He Sui and Qin Shupei.

This series of achievements made her more and more confident. She has long since gotten rid of her past "skinny monkey" image and was praised by the media as the "Oriental Sophie Marceau".

Just when her career in the modeling industry was going smoothly, a major fashion show in 2017 dealt a heavy blow to her modeling career.

02A shocking fall led to marrying into a wealthy family

In November 2017, the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was held in Shanghai, China. This is Xi Mengyao's hometown and her main battlefield.

Perhaps it was because she treated this place too much as her home ground, or perhaps it was because she had participated in many variety shows in recent years and neglected training, she accidentally fell during the third "Winter Mirror Legend" themed fashion show.

This fall caused a lot of controversy afterwards. People said that after she fell, she did not calm down and finish the rest of the performance like a professional supermodel, but smiled leisurely at the audience.

This performance also led to many viewers complaining that she was too amateurish and that her fall was not worthy of sympathy.

This fall was the first in her career and also the first fall accident in the history of the Victoria's Secret Show, which had a huge impact.

After this incident, her modeling career plummeted and she almost quit the industry. However, in China, she still won the support and support of many fans and celebrity friends in the entertainment industry, which made her more popular than before.

As the saying goes, when darkness falls in the east, brightness rises in the west. Although she was unsuccessful in her career, she had good luck in love.

At the end of this year, Xi Mengyao participated in a dating experience variety show "Love Jet Lag", where she met her future husband, He Youjun.

I heard there is a romantic story behind this.

He Chaoyun and Xi Mengyao are good friends. He Youjun met Xi Mengyao through his sister He Chaoyun and had a good impression of her at that time.

However, the two are six years apart in age, and because of their best friend status, Xi Mengyao has never thought of them as a boyfriend or girlfriend, and only treats him as a little brother.

The turning point happened to occur on a show.

He Youjun was participating in the recording of a program called "The Brain" at the time. When he saw Xi Mengyao participating in the variety show "Love Jet Lag", he was afraid that his beloved would be "intercepted" by someone else.

So, he quickly withdrew from the recording of the program at that time and turned to join "Love Jet Lag", staging a "battle for the wife".

Although Xi Mengyao rejected He Youjun many times, as the saying goes, "a strong woman is afraid of a clinging man". Even the most determined woman cannot resist a man who expresses his feelings and attentions to her every day. After a while, "dripping water wears away the stone".

In May 2019, the young husband carefully planned a proposal ceremony and invited a group of friends to help. Finally, on the 13th, he successfully "conquered" Xi Mengyao's "fortress".

After the proposal was successful, their son was born in October of the same year, giving people a feeling of "speed and passion".

Stepping into the modeling circle and stepping into a wealthy family are two completely different things. As the saying goes, it is easy to build an empire but difficult to keep it. How did Xi Mengyao "keep the empire"?

03 Two magic weapons to be a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family

As we all know, being a daughter-in-law of a wealthy family may seem glamorous, but it is not easy to do it well. There are many rules and it also requires a high level of personal ability.

Like Qi Jiao, who also married into the family of the gambling king, her mother-in-law never liked her after marriage, and the couple’s relationship was not that good. They divorced after only two years of living in the wealthy family.

There is also Guo Biting, who was asked by her mother-in-law to give birth to at least three children after marrying Xiang Zuo. In addition, not long after she gave birth to her second child, a reporter broke the news that her husband returned to the new house with a young and happy girl...

Back to Xi Mengyao, it is said that she did not completely win the love and trust of her mother-in-law at the beginning of her marriage. But she was indeed lucky, as she gave birth to a son as her first child.

This is definitely a great joy for the gambling king's family, which lacks male grandchildren, because the gambling king has always wanted a grandson.

The birth of their son made her husband so excited that he immediately wrote a blog post announcing the birth of his son. As a result, Xi Mengyao also won the title of "Mother of the Eldest Grandson".

The fact that Xi Mengyao can now live a happy life in a wealthy family cannot be ruled out as she is a mother with a son, but I think her performance in the following two aspects is more important.

First, she has a high emotional intelligence.

It is estimated that Xi Mengyao has been deeply influenced by her parents' business wisdom since she was a child. She is very good at observing people's words and expressions and handling various relationships.

From her performance in the program "Love's School Trip", it can be seen that compared to her, her husband who graduated from MIT seems a bit "slow". It seems that she needs to remind him of everything and guide him to do everything.

For example, when they visited Mr. Yu Qian's home, his husband seemed very reserved and didn't know what to say, so he turned to her for help. She immediately knew what he meant and immediately broke the awkward silence by praising the host's beautiful house.

When she left, she picked up the tea that the host had brewed and drank it all. Her husband followed suit, which was also a way of showing respect to the host.

When everyone sits together to eat on the show, she will take the initiative to let her husband distribute bowls and chopsticks to everyone. This trains her husband and also maintains his image. After all, they are juniors or younger people, and they can't wait for those who are older to serve them tea and bowls.

Xi Mengyao once said that she did not marry into a wealthy family, but for love.

It can be seen from the way the couple get along that they really love each other.

They encourage and affirm each other. If one party points out a problem, the other party will respond positively. Even if they do not quite agree, they will express it tactfully.

If the husband is not so worldly-wise, he will just listen to his wife and do as she says; when his wife is not confident, he will provide emotional value and cheer her up.

This is what a good marriage should be like - mutual achievement and progress, allowing each person to become a better version of themselves.

Second, I work very hard.

Although she married into a wealthy family, it can be seen that Xi Mengyao did not settle down at home to be a rich wife who had everything provided for her, but instead had her own career and pursuits.

After getting married, she continued to be active in various variety shows, and her husband also followed her lead and participated in the shows with her.

This part can increase your income while also maintaining your fame and popularity.

In addition, she also taught herself economics and revealed that she had watched all the courses of the famous economist Xue Zhaofeng. This year, some netizens met her attending classes seriously at the University of Hong Kong, where she was studying courses related to business management.

So, who wouldn’t like a person who has high emotional intelligence, is excellent and works so hard?

To take a step back, even without the title of a wealthy family's daughter-in-law, I believe she can still win the love of the public, because in a sense, she has lived her life like a "wealthy family."

Who doesn’t like to make friends with the rich and powerful?
