The Sickly Beauty of the 1970s: She Marries a Soldier at First Sight and Has Twins

[1970s setting + married first, love later + age gap + size difference + family life + raising children] Fragile beauty x steady, ruggedly handsome military officer

Zhu Meiling was the youngest daughter, cherished by her whole family. She was beautiful, delicate, and physically frail, and the young men who liked her could form a line all the way to the end of the alley.
