However, Lin, who is personable, likes Joe from a poor family. Joe is the son of a poor farmer in the suburbs of Qingdao. Because I can't afford to go to a school with high tuition fees, I came to this church school where tuition fees can be reduced.
Church schools are run by the Catholic Church. In addition to the compulsory courses of the church, there are some formal arts and sciences courses and even military courses. Lin likes physics very much, and so does Joe. They also like military courses. Joe, in particular, fell in love with the army soon after school started. At that time, the country was at war, and he was eager to learn a skill and serve the country. They often talk about the current situation and military affairs together, and Lin is gradually convinced by Joe's great ambition.
When Qiu Lai went in winter, the grove where they often wandered became the Eden of their love. In the daily heart-to-heart conversation, two young hearts collide with each other to spark love. They met for life, and when they were flat, they entered the marriage hall.
However, just before the Spring Festival, the war situation changed suddenly, boys were forced to join the army and girls were also recruited to field hospitals. Overnight, they lost contact and didn't know where the other party had gone.
Lin's troops retreated, crossed the Yangtze River, retreated to Hainan, and finally retreated to Taiwan Province Province. After arriving in Taiwan Province Province, Lin changed her name and surname, but kept her promise with Joe and refused to love again. She advertised in the newspaper and tried to establish contact with Joe, but there was no news of her. It was not until he was nearly 40 years old that he married a local in Taiwan Province Province.
After breaking up, Joe went to a field army, but was soon captured with the defeat of the army. After the liberation of the mainland, he was assigned to a research institute in Jinan and became an expert. He kept asking about Lin's whereabouts, but there was no news. Because he heard that Lin's troops had not experienced a brutal war, he went south to Taiwan Province Province with the defeated army. When her family persuaded him, she always remembered her agreement with Lin and refused to change it until she married a doctor 20 years later.
In July 2008, Joe's granddaughter came to Taiwan Province Province as the first batch of mainland tourists. She knows her grandfather's love story, so another purpose of her trip to Taiwan Province Province is to find Lin. Before leaving, she said goodbye to her grandfather and specially asked for photos of his childhood with Lin. Although she doesn't know whether Lin is still alive, it will be her grandfather's long-cherished wish to find Lin's descendants.
After she arrived in Taiwan Province Province, she published "Looking for You" in the Central Daily of Taiwan Province Province, and also published the photos of two people treasured by her grandfather. In the preview, she described in detail the scene when they broke up, hoping that more insiders would see it.
Sure enough, on the third day after the announcement, she received a phone call from her granddaughter Lin. She told her happily that Lin was still alive and was very excited to hear the news. Lin's family invited her to Lin's house, and Lin's son saw the notice. He has known his mother's love story for a long time, and he saw the photos of the two treasured by his mother, which are exactly the same as those published in the newspaper.
However, when Joe's granddaughter discussed with Lin's family to arrange for the old man to meet, Lin refused. Lin said she didn't want Joe to see that she was old now. She hopes that in Joe's mind, she will always be a young and beautiful image of the past. Joe's granddaughter saw that when someone came to express herself clearly, her eyes were covered with crow's feet, revealing a little shyness. However, the old man said that she would definitely see him in her lifetime.
When her granddaughter returned to Jinan from Taiwan Province Province and told her grandfather the news, Joe was very excited. He understood that Lin didn't want to see her like this. However, like Lin, he is eager to meet again in his lifetime. Both of them are over 80 years old, and it has been 59 years since they broke up. How much time will time be left for them?
However, the granddaughters understand Lin's ideas very well. How much they hope that the old people can meet each other and keep their youth beautiful.
Finally, their granddaughter finally came up with a complete plan!
A month later, accompanied by her granddaughter, Lin went to Baotu Spring in Jinan. Accompanied by her granddaughter, Joe waited by Baotu Spring. Joe is holding 59 flowers. The two girls have long since stepped aside.
Lin walked slowly to Joe, who had not heard from her for 59 years. Joe looked for the forest in his heart in the crowd with flowers in his arms. An old woman came over and presented a flower. Another old woman came and he gave another one. ...
Lin Man quietly returned to her granddaughter with tears in her eyes, and she let her granddaughter slowly disappear among the endless stream of tourists. Her wish has come true, and her beauty will always be fixed in the beautiful spring city.
At this moment, Joe is still offering gorgeous flowers to the elderly women passing by. He knows that there is a flower for his sweetheart.
