Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 530 The burning passion of ideals and beliefs blooms red plum blossoms all over the hillside

Seeing that her eyes were clear, Qiao Lingyue lowered her guard and asked Lu Yuan to get bowls for the guests.

After confirming that her son hadn't done anything wrong, Xie Susu invited Li Dai to sit down and complimented her, "Comrade Li, you're so beautiful. Which movie are you in? Why did it take so long to film?"

The film is tentatively titled "Blazing," and tells the story of a young urban woman who is sent to the countryside due to policy reasons. At first, she resists labor and cries at the drop of a hat.

Later, he was moved by the simple and honest people in the countryside, realized the necessity of sending educated youth to the countryside, changed his mindset, became proactive, and earned the respect of all the commune members and male educated youth.

However, as the autumn harvest was nearing its end, the weather suddenly changed, and a torrential downpour began.

The female educated youth and commune members were frantic and rushed into the rain to harvest the grain. But the rain was too heavy, and the upstream reservoir breached its banks.

The moment the water rushed down the mountain, the young woman quickly pushed the old woman beside her aside and was swept away by the mudslide...

He Jingcheng touched his nose and glanced at Lu Yuan: "It's somewhat similar to your mother-in-law's story, huh!"

“There are still big differences!” Lu Yuan replied, “At least the character settings are different!”

"What's the name of your character?" Xie Susu asked.

"Liu Hongmei!"

That winter, the Chenwan production team was filled with blooming red plum blossoms. Just like Liu Hongmei's youth, it remained on the land she would always love.

Everyone sighed, feeling that this ending was far from perfect.

"The burning passion of ideals and beliefs is reflected in the red plum blossoms covering the hillside in winter—quite a striking contrast!"

Li Dai nodded: "Yes, the director said that this would better highlight Liu Hongmei's greatness and encourage more ambitious young people to go to the countryside and work hard."

The group of people smiled but didn't say anything.

"So, you filmed from spring to winter?"

"Yes, I spent a whole year working in the countryside there, and my face got so tanned! Look, my palms are covered in calluses!"

Li Dai stretched her hands out in front of everyone, and He Jingcheng poked them with his hand: "Wow, it's true!"

"Otherwise, how could it be fake?"

Li Dai raised her chin proudly: "The day I left, the captain was very reluctant to let me go."

They said I performed well and were going to give me a spot at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University!

He Jingcheng gave a thumbs up: "Awesome!"

The two of them started chatting back and forth, and the others, seeing that Li Dai was simple-minded, put aside their reservations.

Lu Yuan served her a bowl of egg drop soup, while Xie Susu gave her some steamed buns and pickled vegetables.

After thanking her, Li Dai said, "I'd like to go inside and see my sister-in-law!"

"Let's go!" Lu Yuan got up and pushed open the bedroom door.

The small bedroom was decorated very warmly, and even though there was a bedridden patient inside, there was no unpleasant smell.

Qiao Manman's cheeks were rosy and she looked very healthy. Her belly showed a round, plump shape under the blanket.

Li Dai covered her mouth in surprise: "They didn't tell me that my sister-in-law is pregnant! Commander Lu, you're really amazing!"

After Li Dai finished speaking, she tiptoed out of the room: "Oh, right, I brought a gift for my sister-in-law."

He picked up the bag from the corner and said, "These oranges can't be left here. You guys should eat them quickly."

This is a scarf I brought for my sister-in-law. Commander, please put it away and let her wear it when she wakes up.

And this powder compact and lipstick, I brought them back from Haishi. Many people in the performing arts troupe wanted them, but I didn't give them to them!

Lu Yuan took the bag: "Comrade Li, you're so thoughtful!"

"Comrade Li, please eat. It must have been a long and tiring journey in this freezing weather."

"Well, it's alright!" Li Dai picked up the bowl and took a sip of the egg drop soup.
