The girl asked, "Brother Yu, will you still treat me so well in the future? Will you help me massage my knees and catch fish for me to eat? "
"Yes, of course! As long as Sister Fangfang wants to eat anything, I'll get it for you! "The boy said as he patted his chest.
"Then … What if someone bullies Fangfang?" asked the girl.
"With me around, no one can bully Fangfang," said the boy confidently as he continued patting his chest.
At that instant, the girl smiled happily as her eyes curved into crescents.
"Then let's carve words. No one is allowed to go back on their word!" shouted the girl.
The boy agreed. The two carved the words "Yu Guanghua will protect Fangfang forever" on the birch tree. Then, the two carved the same words on the other two trees. Finally, the boy peeled off the birch tree's bark with a knife and made it into a card, one for each person.
The scene changed. On the yellow dirt road in the village, the girl had grown up quite a bit. However, the situation wasn't looking good. She was being pushed down by a fat punk as he snatched a bag of flour from her hands. She was crying out of anxiety.
At that moment, the boy appeared. He randomly grabbed a huge piece of soil and charged forward, engaging Fatty in a brawl. Fatty was tall and strong, so how could the boy beat him? However, the boy exuded a fearless aura. No matter how many times he was knocked down, he would still crawl back up and continue fighting.
In the end, Fatty was frightened by the boy. He turned and ran, scattering the flour all over the ground.
When the girl saw the flour scattered, she wailed. "I'm doomed. Mommy will beat me if the flour is scattered. Boohoo …"
When the boy saw this, he clenched his teeth and said, "Fangfang, wait for me."
"Don't hit him again. You are bleeding," said the girl in concern.
However, the boy still left. He returned home and took out a cleaver before rushing into Fatty's house. Not long later, he took out a bag of flour and stuffed it into the girl's hands.
The scene changed again. The girl had grown up and was slender. She was no longer in the village but had entered the city.
It was still the same boy. He was taller and more muscular. He smiled bashfully. The two walked on the streets and there was a poster hanging on the wall. On it was a portrait of a woman in a white qipao. It accentuated her figure perfectly, making her look bright and beautiful.
The girl looked at the poster and could not help but marvel, "What a beautiful dress. I want to buy one when I earn money in the future."
The boy was stunned and didn't say anything.
The scene changed again.
The boy suddenly rushed into the factory where the girl was and stuffed a package into the girl's hands. Then, he turned around and ran away with red eyes.
No matter how the girl shouted, the boy did not look back.
The girl opened it and covered her mouth in disbelief. It was a white cheongsam! What a beautiful cheongsam! But where did he get the money to buy such a beautiful cheongsam?
The girl chased after him and found the boy. She shoved the clothes back and said angrily, "Brother Yu, if you don't tell me where you got the money from, I can't take these clothes."
"Huh?" The boy was stunned. He scratched his head, not knowing how to explain.
At this moment, the boy's friend came over and said, "What else could it be? Old Yu works several jobs a day, day and night. He saved money for more than half a year. "
The boy hurriedly beat him away and stuffed the clothes into the girl's arms, saying, "I'm not that tired, take it …"
The girl looked at the boy with a pained expression and said, "Why? It's not like clothes are necessary …"
"Heh heh …" The boy chuckled foolishly. He was indeed not good with words.
The scene changed again. The girl was about to get married. Her family wanted her to marry someone she did not know. Only then did she realize that she had grown up. She was no longer the little girl from back then. At the same time, the person in her heart had grown up. Indeed, that night, the girl wanted to elope with the boy.
However, the boy rejected her because he could not give the girl the life she wanted.
The girl cried, and so did the boy. The next day, the boy left Black Mountain City. When her family wasn't paying attention, the girl ran off. She did not know where to go and finally returned to her hometown, to the birch forest. And there, she saw the boy! The boy was standing under the birch tree where they had carved their vows in a daze.
"You said that you would protect me forever," the girl said softly as tears streamed down her face.
The boy slapped himself thrice and hugged the girl, saying, "I will protect you forever. With me around, no one can think of hurting you."
The two of them were together. It was just a simple act of holding hands. That was all.
However, the scene changed again.
It was still in the birch forest. The boy held the girl's hand as the girl cried. "I won't let you go …"
"Silly girl, I'm not leaving. I'm going to fight the Merican invaders! To protect our country! "The boy wiped the tears off the girl's face.
"There are so many people in China. It doesn't matter if you are there or not. Why must you go? Didn't you say that you would go willingly? "The girl cried even more sadly.
"I did go willingly!" the boy said affectionately.
"If you leave, how will you protect me?" The girl began acting shamelessly. She pointed at the newly carved words on the tree and said, "You didn't keep your promise!"
The boy looked at the girl affectionately and said, "Silly girl, I'm going to protect you! Back then, Country R invaded the northeast and brought about a disaster. I will absolutely not allow it to happen again. This time, Merica is here. I have to stand up. Only by keeping them out can I guarantee your safety. For you and for my country, I have to go! "
"But … But … Aren't there others?" The girl was indignant.
"That's others, not me. I swore that I would protect you. Believe me, I will be back! "the boy said.
The scene changed again. With a loud slogan, the boy joined the army and donned a military uniform. At that moment, the girl found him very handsome! The scene shattered.
By the riverside, at the old dock, the girl stuffed her newly taken photo into the boy's hand. She wrote her name on the back of the photo: "Yu Guanghua's wife: Liu Fangfang!"
And at this moment, the two of them had yet to register their marriage or register their marriage. However, the words on the photo made everything clear. She! Liu Fangfang was already Yu Guanghua's wife.
"I will wait for you to return until the end of time. Right here, at this ferry. No matter when you return, you will see me. I will visit every boat that returns. I hope you will be on one of them, "Liu Fangfang whispered.
