"Let's move on to the next world."
"Okay, host."
(Author's Note: The social and life backgrounds mentioned in this story are all fictional. The world the female protagonist enters is based on various novels, so please don't apply it to reality. Love you all~)
?(?????)?..°?～
The world is in China in the 70s, but it is already 75 years later, and there are still about two years before the college entrance examination system is restored.
This is a male-oriented period drama novel. The story is about a soldier who falls in love at first sight with a female educated youth who was sent to the countryside when he returns home to visit his family. After they get married, the female protagonist becomes a military spouse, and the two support each other through thick and thin. It is a passionate love story of youth in the military camp.
Zi Yue has a pretty good impression of the male and female protagonists in this world. At least the male and female protagonists have normal values, are kind and upright, and are hardworking and positive.
They are all flawless in character and each has their own strengths.
There's no melodramatic plot; it mainly tells the story of how that generation worked hard to build their country.
The original owner was one of the educated youth who went to the countryside on the same train as the female protagonist, and they went to the same place.
However, because this novel is more focused on male-oriented content, there are not many descriptions of the female protagonist's time in the countryside. Therefore, the original owner was never mentioned in the original text, so she was definitely just a background character.

As for the original owner, her family's living conditions were already considered top-notch for that era.
The original owner is 17 years old this year and has already graduated from high school.
Both her parents were soldiers. When the original owner was five years old, her parents died heroically in battle while covering the retreat of their comrades.
The original owner's grandfather, Qing Weian, was a renowned traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and the president of Beijing Central Hospital. He was also the private physician for many high-ranking officials, providing them with health care.
The grandfather, who had lost his only son and daughter-in-law, was devastated by the tragedy of losing his only son and daughter-in-law. Fortunately, he still had his grandchildren by his side.
Actually, given the original owner's family background, the original owner's grandfather had already planned to arrange a nursing position for the original owner in the hospital, which would have been a piece of cake.
But perhaps because of her family background, many eyes were on her, and before the original owner even had a chance to start working, the rural assignment was granted first.
The original owner had an older brother who, although already working, planned to give his job to his younger sister and go to the countryside himself.
When the original owner found out, he secretly went to the rural registration office and registered his name.
Because the original owner's older brother, Qing Ziji, was already 19 years old, and he was originally scheduled to marry his childhood sweetheart next year, but the quota for going to the countryside was allocated.
The original owner and her brother's childhood sweetheart, Huang Wenxiao, also grew up together. She liked this neighbor sister very much, and she was also her childhood friend and best friend.
The original owner didn't want the trip to the countryside to delay their marriage, so she secretly signed up in advance.
When the original owner's grandfather, brother, and future sister-in-law found out, they were both angry and anxious, and gave the original owner a severe scolding.
After all, she was the only girl in the family, the youngest, and the prettiest. She had been pampered since she was a child, so how could they bear to let her go to the countryside to work and suffer?
But by the time they found out, it was too late. They couldn't change the list that had already been finalized. All they could do was try their best to prepare more items for Ziyue, hoping to make her life in the countryside a little better.
The original owner's grandfather tried every means to find someone to pull strings and send Ziyue to a place called Lanshan Brigade - Dahe Village.
He had been kind to the village doctor of that brigade, and Ziyue had been learning medicine from him since childhood. The acupuncture techniques passed down in the Qing family were also ready for her to graduate.
After going to the countryside, his granddaughter can help out at the village doctor's office. She doesn't have to work in the fields. If she gets fewer work points, that's fine. She doesn't have to rely on work points for food, so he can feel more at ease.
Unfortunately, not long after the original owner went to the countryside, he was knocked down by a wild boar that suddenly rushed out while he was collecting herbs in the mountains.
He fell and hit his head on a rock, tragically dying young.
After the original owner's grandfather and brother received news of the original owner's death, the original owner's grandfather once again experienced the pain of a white-haired man burying a black-haired one. It was his little granddaughter, whom he had carefully raised and cherished, who passed away without taking a breath.
The original owner's brother, Qing Ziji, first learned of his sister's death, then suddenly lost his grandfather, and all his relatives left him. He was greatly shocked and felt very guilty, and his hair turned white overnight.
Qing Ziji and Huang Wenxiao were both unable to accept the news of their sister's death.
Qing Ziji felt that if he had signed up earlier, he would have been the one sent to the countryside, his sister wouldn't have had to go, she wouldn't have died, and his grandfather would have been safe.
He took all the blame upon himself, blaming himself for not protecting his sister.
Huang Wenxiao also couldn't accept the news of the original owner's death. She had liked the beautiful and cute little sister next door since she was a child, and had always doted on her as her own sister. The two grew up together and had a deep sisterly bond.
She felt that her younger sister had gone to the countryside to support her and Ziji's relationship, and a constant stream of guilt and self-blame filled her heart.
Neither Qing Ziji nor Huang Wenxiao could accept the original owner's death, nor could they accept that their relationship was based on the life of their younger sister.
The two eventually broke off their engagement.
Separated from his lover in life and from his loved ones in death, Qing Ziji died of depression less than two years later.
Huang Wenxiao never married and lived alone in the Qing family's courtyard. Every Qingming Festival, she would pay tribute to those who were no longer with her.
The person is gone, but the scenery remains the same.
Years pass by, and youth fades away.
He grew old alone...
It can be said that the original owner's entire family was a tragedy, with the last member of the family dying out.
But in that particular era, families like the original owner's were not isolated cases.
Darkness will eventually pass, dawn will eventually arrive, and even in the most painful years, splendid and everlasting flowers will eventually bloom...

After Ziyue entered the world, there were still two days before she had to go to the countryside. Going to the countryside was already a fait accompli and could not be changed.
Ziyue didn't care, since she could live well anywhere anyway.
With two days left, she could secretly use the spiritual spring water to improve the health of the original owner's grandfather, brother, and future sister-in-law, so that she could go to the countryside with peace of mind, since these were all relatives who cared about and loved the original owner very much.
Zi Yue opened her eyes. She was standing in the original owner's room. She looked around—
