Leaving behind the glory of roles and busy life with her family, director Bui Thac Chuyen's wife - actress Tu Oanh chose for herself a peaceful corner in a small garden rented separately to plant and take care of plants herself.
For the actress, getting dirty is not only a hobby of providing clean food, but also a spiritual therapy to help her push back the thoughts of age.
Sharing with Lao Dong reporters, the actress confided that maintaining her gardening habit helps her avoid feeling idle in middle age.
She believes that when one has nothing to do, one easily falls into a state of excessive thought or feels that one is aging rapidly.
Therefore, hoeing the soil, sowing seeds and observing the germination of plants has become an effective spiritual therapy, helping her always maintain dynamism and positive thinking.
In this garden, actress Tu Oanh does not hesitate to learn from the experience of real farmers to understand the characteristics of each type of vegetable.
Her garden currently has many different types of vegetables, but water spinach is the plant that makes the female artist most concerned.

According to her observation, water spinach usually grows slowly, unevenly and requires more meticulous care techniques than other vegetables. With the determination to conquer this "difficult task", this year she focuses on investing efforts to grow water spinach.
However, an interesting situation occurred when she shared her gardening process on her personal page; thanks to comments and suggestions from the audience, the actress realized that she had followed the wrong procedure for planting this vegetable.
Open interaction with fans not only helps her gain more agricultural knowledge but also creates a close connection between artists and the public.
Besides her passion for gardening, Tu Oanh also surprised many people with her ability to be self-reliant in technology at middle age. In previous years, when starting to make short videos, she often had to rely on the support of many people. However, once, while accidentally waiting to charge her car, instead of letting time pass in vain, the actress self-studied filmmaking applications on her phone.
Since that milestone, she started to perform all the steps herself to create a complete video. From setting artistic shooting angles, adjusting natural light to post-production cutting and pasting, all were completed by Tu Oanh herself before being shared on social networks.
Creativity and the spirit of not being afraid of change have helped the actress prove that, at any age, learning new things is always the best way to keep her soul youthful and full of vitality.
