NS Hoa My Hanh: The child died, the husband took money for his wife, the U70 stayed at a 7m2 motel, did nails for a walk, ate rice with salt and chili

When talking about the tragedy of life, artist Hoa My Hanh many times burst into tears. From the head of the troupe who sang every night more words than a golden tree, at the end of her life she was alone in a shabby motel room with illness.

Loss of property because husband has a young wife

Talking about her background, artist Hoa My Hanh said: "My grandmother died early, my grandfather got married with a young wife, so my mother had to stay and wait for the rich. My father was a double singer of the Truong Son troupe. Once, the group returned to the motherland. At the show, my mother, because she loved singing, loved her father, so she followed him from there."

Artist Hoa My Hanh cried out from the singing group. Her childhood was therefore also nomadic, traveling from one countryside to another.

At the age of 7, Hoa My Hanh was assigned to play the role of peaches. At the age of 17, he became the main singer and sang in pairs with many famous artists such as Thanh Duoc, Minh Vuong, Minh Phung, Tan Tai, Minh Canh...

Outside of 20, at the most beautiful age of a girl's life, Hoa My Hanh met and fell in love with artist Minh Hai and then became a husband and wife with him.

The beautiful beauty of artist Hoa My Hanh in her youth.

How much capital has accumulated since standing on stage, she founded the Minh Hai Son Ca singing group and registered to operate in the north of My Thuan Bridge, Vinh Long province. That year, Hoa My Hanh was only 24 years old.

In the early 80s of the last century, artist Hoa My Hanh owned a luxury car like this...

"I was very rich that day, had my own car. One night when I sang, I had more words than a tree of gold. But I was stupid. Because I loved and trusted my husband so much, I gave it all to my husband to keep. Unexpectedly he He had a young wife. When I found out, the property was gone...", artist Hoa My Hanh said.

Because of this, she and her husband fought and broke up. She sold the house to pay each person's salary, disbanded the choir, and took her son away. And her husband ran after his little wife.

After parting, Hoa My Hanh returned to sing for the Long Giang collective. So depressed, disappointed and afraid that later she did not open her heart to anyone anymore. She stayed there to raise her children alone.

Once, the group returned to Long Xuyen to sing, her son had an acute hemorrhagic fever and died. They let her bury her children in the cemetery.

Having lost her husband and children, artist Hoa My Hanh many times thought of suicide...

35 years have passed, but Hoa My Hanh still has not eased her pain. In each story of the old artist today, there is still anger, blame and pain for the tragedy of his life.

When asked, in all these years, what news do you have from your ex-husband? She said: "When my son died, he came back, but I buried him then. Since then, I have not believed. Only recently, I heard people say that he quit his job and is working as a security guard."

In rented house, sickness and poverty

Many events fell, but thanks to art, Hoa My Hanh still struggled to endure and continue. Until the day Cai Luong lost the audience, the main peach like Hoa My Hanh was also full of rice and hungry. Depressed, she quit her job to learn how to curl hair, paint nails and rent space to open a shop.

Life was just starting to stabilize when the residential area was cleared to build My Thuan bridge. She returned the land to Saigon to find a livelihood.

In the late afternoon, Hoa My Hanh had to live in poverty alone, doing nail work, carrying many diseases in her body.

However, due to the low epidemic season, Hoa My Hanh has now quit her job as a nail technician, anyone who asks to clean and sweep the house comes to work for people despite their old age and weakness.

At the hostel, artist Hoa My Hanh burst into tears and confided in her current life: "It took me two hours to move a three-story house, move from the first floor to the third floor, clean the toilet, I was very tired, I was paid. 100k.

I have to wait until I have money to go to the hospital to get medicine, so I only go once in a while. I bought all 820 thousand of medicine for one month.

I have to eat frugally, it's very hard, I have to eat rice with salt and chili, every once in a while I have duck eggs and soy sauce to eat. I don't even have money to buy vegetables, only three eggs to eat all day.

Artist Hoa My Hanh burst into tears when receiving money from late artist Hoang Lan

In the past, there were a few people who supported me, but now that the pandemic is difficult, they can't help either. I don't have any money so I can only eat like that.

Before I went to do nails for 80,000 a set, but now the epidemic, people eat sparingly so they don't do nails anymore, I can do one set at the beginning of the year, one set at the end of the year, not enough to live on.

Life is so miserable now, my legs hurt but I have to walk a lot, the more I walk, the more it hurts but if I don't go, I'm hungry. I don't have the courage to die, but sometimes I want to die."

Recently, the group of artists Phi Phung, Phuong Dung, Thuy Muoi visited the reformed artist Hoa My Hanh. Pitying for the plight of artist Hoa My Hanh, artist Phi Phung said: "Sister Hoang Lan was previously ill and was helped and donated by many colleagues and sponsors.

Now she's dead, leaving a bit of money received from previous rounds of 61 million. Hoang Lan's wish is to use this money to help poor artists.

We received an additional $1002 from a US sponsor, adding up to 80 million.

We went to find poor, lonely artists like Ms. Hoa My Hanh to give some support, help her buy some vegetables and food. As long as we have money, we will always remember Ms. Hoa My Hanh because she is too old and miserable.

She is 67 years old and still has to work hard to pay for the house even though her strength is weak and her limbs are in pain.
