Chapter 394, Episode 0427: The Person of Yang Chunhua

Yang Chunhua was startled when she received the news that Grandpa Hua had come.

"What?"

Oh my, you're already in your sixties, why did you take such a long train ride to get here?

What if something happens on the way?

Yang Chunhua rushed to the dock, and just as she arrived, she brushed past a group of heavily guarded soldiers.

There are troops on the island, and everyone knows when it's okay to be curious about people in military uniforms and when it's not. In situations like this, where it's obvious that they're escorting important figures or supplies, anyone with a brain knows not to get close.

Yang Chunhua, like everyone else, made way for them from a distance, without even glancing curiously in their direction. She quickly passed by them without looking to the side and headed towards the dock.

However, the old man who was being protected and Lin Yuexi both glanced in her direction.

The person who came to pick them up was the boss here, surnamed Wang, named Hanzhi, nicknamed Wang Datou, who used to be a soldier under the old man.

Knowing what they were there for, Wang Datou pointed out the servants to them when he saw Yang Chunhua.

"Old Chief, look over there, the prettiest one, that's your granddaughter-in-law."

And you know what? There's one truth to the rumors: Yang Chunhua is indeed beautiful, especially when she's in a group of people, she stands out.

She has fair skin and a delicate, frail appearance that easily evokes a protective instinct. However, her masculine walking posture creates a sense of incongruity, but it does soften her perceived fragility and makes it less likely for people to underestimate her.

Don't assume that all men like the innocent, delicate type of woman. It depends. Only men who lack ability and need to find self-esteem in women will like that type. Confident men rarely like the weak type, especially the type who cries easily.

Especially the soldiers.

For them, getting married isn't just about liking someone. Being a military wife isn't easy. Not only do they have to be self-reliant, able to endure loneliness, and manage the household, but they also have to avoid holding their soldiers back.

It's very unfair, but it's my responsibility as a military wife.

Yes, the title of "military spouse" carries not only honor but also, and perhaps more importantly, responsibility.

It's too conspicuous; small white flowers are not suitable.

Most soldiers are rational, and the military has its own "mine-clearing" measures, so not many soldiers would marry a wife who cries easily.

For this reason, Yang Chunhua was not very popular when she first joined the army.

Even Wang Datou couldn't escape the prejudice against her because of her appearance. People in the family quarters were too good-looking and were subtly ostracized from the start.

This resulted in Yang Chunhua's situation not being reported to higher authorities immediately.

One reason is that everything happened at home, and another is that almost no one in the residential area had any contact with Yang Chunhua. Once their door was closed, the outside world basically knew what was happening inside.

If Yang Chunhua hadn't finally learned to resist and run away, only to be taken to the hospital by Leng Xingmao, this incident would never have come to light.

Wang Datou felt very guilty, "I am responsible for this."

He didn't defend himself; if he was wrong, he was wrong and he had to admit it.

The old man gave him a speechless look. "Is your back particularly thick, or is your head particularly big?"

After speaking, he paused for a moment, then looked at his large head seriously, and said slowly, "His head is indeed quite big, enough to support several pots."

I ask you, is it appropriate for him, a military officer, to personally manage the family quarters?

The old man was more rational than anyone else. In Yang Chunhua's case, the person most responsible was Hua Errong's ex-husband, followed by the rest of the Hua family. The military could only blame their subordinates for inadequate management. Blaming Wang Datou, the person in charge, was unreasonable.

Wang Datou understood what the old man meant, and grinned with his big white teeth, looking a bit naive. "After I found out that Xingmao was dating Yang Chunhua, I made a point of looking into Yang Chunhua's past."

He sighed, his tone tinged with both admiration and pity. "She's a good girl. She's suffered a lot, like she grew up eating bitter herbs. To be honest with the old leader, if I had gone through those things, I can't guarantee I wouldn't have gone astray. But she not only stood up for herself and became independent, but she also stayed true to herself."

Wang Datou then recounted several of Yang Chunhua's remarkable achievements.

Each and every one of these items, taken individually, deserves a medal!

According to superstition, he is a person with somewhat strange luck.

They always suffer first, and then, unexpectedly, good things happen.

When Yang Chunhua first came to join the army, the island was not like it is now. It was undeveloped back then, with no high-rise buildings or even the small town it is today. There were only troops stationed on the island and villages scattered here and there.

Those were truly tough times. There were no civilian boats to travel by. Before the troops were stationed there, the islanders relied on self-sufficiency. After the troops arrived, they could only go out of the island once every month or two when the logistics ships went out to buy supplies.

This opportunity isn't something you can just have whenever you want. After all, the ship is only so big, and it's not a dedicated passenger ship. The return trip is almost full, so the number of people it can carry is very limited.

This gives you an idea of ​​how difficult life must have been for the troops on the island in the first few years after they arrived.

The military dependents who accompanied the troops to the island naturally suffered as well.

With limited food supplies, there was never a time when people could have enough to eat; vegetables were a little better, at least they could grow their own; but if they wanted to eat meat, sometimes they wouldn't be able to eat a single bite for months.

If you really crave it, you have to go to any village that isn't exactly close to the army base to exchange for it.

Once, Yang Chunhua was tricked by a girl with ill intentions into going to a village called Peach Blossom Village to exchange meat. Peach Blossom Village was far from the army base, and it would take at least half a day to walk there. More importantly, the road there was difficult to travel.

This is based on the fact that the roads have already been developed and built.

The troops were stationed in the east, and Peach Blossom Village was in the west by the sea. At that time, the area in between was still undeveloped, with forests, lakes, and many wild animals.

Even more frightening is that there are several densely populated mountains where almost all the snakes, insects, rodents, and ants are poisonous.

That girl was no good; she had no good intentions in getting close to Yang Chunhua.

Yang Chunhua was ostracized, and she cherished the friendship of someone who was willing to associate with her, never suspecting that the other person had malicious intentions.

Foolishly, he went alone towards Peach Blossom Village.

I don't know whether to say she was lucky or that fate was on her side, but she just took the wrong turn.

Then they got lost in the mountains.

That mountain wasn't far from the military base; just over one more mountain would be the back mountain of the base.

Yang Chunhua walked in the mountains for half a day without finding her way out. However, when she was hungry and looking for something to eat, she unintentionally found a very secluded cave.

There are several natural caves winding through the mountain.

Yang Chunhua was a tiger; she actually dared to sneak into such a place alone.

Then, a shocking secret was discovered—a group of notebooks were hidden in the cave!
