In the twelfth lunar month of 1975, Shen Qingyue was cornered.
She was of poor family background and was shunned by others. Only one person in the village dared to marry her - the taciturn and rough veteran Lu Tingchen who was said to have "killed people".
On the wedding night, he took the quilt to the woodshed and said, "You sleep in the house, I'll sleep here."
She thought it was a give-and-take deal. He would silently help her carry water and chop firewood, and stand at the door with an ax when she was bullied; she would also secretly mend his clothes at night, and stay overnight when he had a fever.
Life was hard, but she remembered all his good things.
But just when she was sincere and ready to spend the rest of her life with him——
The mother from the city came and wanted to take her back to the city and force her to divorce.
People from the army also came to restore his reputation and give him a chance to re-enlist.
The scoundrel who had framed him was at work again, and rumors began to spread again.
He pushed her away: "Go away, I don't need your pity."
She asked with red eyes: "Then have you ever thought about whether I am willing?"
The mountains are high and the rivers are far away, and there is a dilemma between love and hate. They climbed over mountains one after another, and finally discovered——
It turns out that each other is the only way back.
