Following the Army to the Island: The Fussy Beauty Makes His Ears Burn

[Following the Army in the 1970s] [Island Life] [Marriage First, Love Later] [Portable Space]

[Sweet but Shrewd Little Trouble-Maker x Stern, Cold Regiment Commander with a Soft Heart]

After transmigrating into an era of scarcity, Yu Wan is about to be sold by her aunt to a widower in his fifties for 250 yuan from the start.

Her four-year-old sister has a fever that won't go down, and their tiny three-square-meter space can't sustain them for long.

She carries her sister on her back, clutches the bullet casing her father left behind, and blocks Lu Zheng's path.

"Commander Lu, our families arranged a marriage. I want to marry you."

The man's expression is stern. "Don't expect me to pamper you every day."

Yu Wan nods obediently. As long as she can take her sister away, she'll endure any hardship.

Until she follows him to an island with the army

The bed is too hard, and she calls out with red-rimmed eyes that her back hurts. The coarse grains scrape her throat, and she can't swallow them. The old table is ugly, so she insists on fixing it herself, only to end up with wood splinters all over her hands.

Lu Zheng complains that she's spoiled, but turns around and brings her thick cotton padding, buys her white flour and eggs, and even makes her table, chairs, and screen himself.

People in the compound laugh that she's wasteful and keeps giving money to her family?

Yu Wan's eyes redden, and she sweetly silences them. Then she goes home and has the nerve to ask, "Commander Lu, I told them your passbook is mine to manage."

Lu Zheng stares at her for a long moment, then puts the passbook in her arms.

"Take it. Don't go hungry."

Later, on a stormy night, he protects her as they rush to the hospital, then folds her cold hand into his palm.

"Remember, I'm your man. If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for you."

Only then does Yu Wan realize that he's truly spoiled her until she can hardly endure hardship anymore.
