In a recent conversation, Ms. Tran Lam - wife of Hong Kong (China) entertainment tycoon Huong Hoa Cuong - admitted to having broken up many relationships of her own son, actor Huong Ta.
When Huong Ta was just over 20 years old, not yet able to earn money, but the girls around him continuously demanded luxury cars, expensive watches, and a crocodile-skin Hermès bag... Ms. Tran Lam said that those girls were "gold diggers", only greedy for the wealth of Huong's family, not really loving Huong Ta, and could lead him astray.
But in the case of actress Quach Bich Dinh, everything was completely different. Ms. Tran Lam recalled that the first time she met Quach Bich Dinh in a program, she had a very good impression, the two respected each other and were harmonious; even discovered that their birthdays were only one day apart, feeling very charming.
With the nod of husband and wife Tran Lam - Huong Hoa Cuong, Huong Ta and Quach Bich Dinh got married in 2019, holding a lavish wedding.
Ms. Tran Lam believes in handing over the management of her family's estimated 50 billion HKD (about 168 trillion VND) inheritance to her daughter-in-law, because she assesses Quach Bich Dinh as a financially independent person, living principledly, not relying on her husband's family's money.
After getting married, to take care of her sick biological father, Quach Bich Dinh chose to bring her 2 children to live long-term in Taipei (Taiwan, China). For many traditional families, it is unacceptable for a daughter-in-law to take her grandchildren away from her husband's family, but Tran Lam does not force her daughter-in-law to live anywhere.
Not only that, she also used actions to support. Because Quach Bich Dinh loves animals and wants to have an ideal space near her mother's house, Ms. Tran Lam directly bought 4 adjacent plots of land, giving her full authority to plan and build an animal shelter and private garden.
Previously, Tran Lam and Huong Hoa Cuong spent 1.2 billion RMB on their son's wedding, and gave their daughter-in-law a 19th-century European noble crown. Every time Quach Bich Dinh gave birth, she rewarded her with real estate and jewelry.
Tran Lam also shared her current view of the mother-in-law - daughter-in-law relationship. She said that a good relationship does not come naturally, but is "formed together".
The most important thing is to have boundaries, each small family should have their own space. Now, her attitude is: "Teaching children is for parents, we are just audiences, not directors".
Quach Bich Dinh once shared in an interview that Tran Lam had compensated for the lack of maternal love in her growing up: "I have one more family, one more mother".
And Ms. Tran Lam exclaimed that it was Quach Bich Dinh who made her "become a better mother-in-law".
