在那遥远的边疆[60年代]

Yang Qiujin was renowned for her beauty in the Xinfeng Production Team. At the age of 18, she dutifully followed her parents’ wishes and married Chen Shengqing, a man from her village.

Chen Shengqing, a broad-shouldered young man with big ambitions, reluctantly entered an arranged marriage with Yang Qiujin to satisfy his mother.

To him, she was just an obligation. Shortly after their wedding, he was drafted into the army, leaving her behind with their newborn son.

Seven years later, Chen returned as a decorated battalion commander, hardened by war. At his mother’s request, Qiujin and their six-year-old son moved to the harsh northwest frontier to join him.

Though indifferent at first, Chen couldn’t ignore Qiujin’s quiet strength as she managed their household and earned the respect of everyone around her.

It was only through the trials of frontier life that Chen began to see the woman he had overlooked—a loyal, intelligent partner who had always stood by him.

Slowly, love crept in where there had been none before, proving that sometimes, marriage is only the beginning of a love story.
