Lu Wei, an old man who has been baptized by the years, is now 73 years old. His life is a legend spanning half a century. Lu Wei, who was in the prime of his youth, set off from the bustling city of Beijing and embarked on a journey to Yan'an, northern Shaanxi, with full of enthusiasm and infinite vision for the future. At that time, he had only one simple but lofty goal in mind - short-term training and contributing to the development of the country.
However, the trajectory of fate is often unexpected. Lu Wei originally thought it was just a short journey, but he didn't expect that on the Loess Plateau in northern Shaanxi, he would stay for nine years. Nine years is undoubtedly the most precious time in a young person's life. In the past nine years, Lu Wei has experienced the transformation from youth to maturity, from an outsider to a real person from northern Shaanxi.
During his days in northern Shaanxi, Lu Wei did not choose a comfortable life, but actively devoted himself to local production and labor. He farmed and herded cattle with local farmers, experiencing a very different way of life than in Beijing. Although the natural environment in northern Shaanxi is difficult, Lu Wei has found a different kind of joy of life here. He learned the dialect of northern Shaanxi, understood the customs of northern Shaanxi, and felt the depth and simplicity of this land more deeply.
In his life in northern Shaanxi, Lu Wei not only exercised his will, but also gained love. He met and fell in love with a girl from northern Shaanxi, and eventually became husband and wife. The union of the two is not only emotionally interdependent, but also culturally integrated. Lu Wei's wife, with her enthusiasm and tenacity, gave Lu Wei the warmest support in a foreign land. Their love story has also become a local story.
After marriage, Lu Wei and his wife welcomed their children. The birth of a child has brought new hope and joy to this small family. After Lu Wei became a father, he had a deeper understanding of responsibility and responsibility. He is not only responsible for his own life, but also for the future of his family. In the nine years in northern Shaanxi, Lu Wei has grown from a hot-blooded young man to a responsible husband and father.
Nine years of living in northern Shaanxi was a valuable experience for Lu Wei. Here he learned perseverance, harmony with nature, and how to find meaning in life in a difficult environment. Although Lu Wei later left northern Shaanxi and returned to Beijing, what was left to him during that period was not only memories, but also a kind of spiritual wealth, a deep understanding and perception of life.
Lu Wei's story is a microcosm of many young people of that era. With ideals and beliefs, they devote themselves to the construction of the country, and no matter where they are, they are full of enthusiasm and unremitting efforts to write their own chapter of life. Although Lu Wei's years in northern Shaanxi have passed, his story is like the wind on the Loess Plateau, blowing in people's hearts forever.
Lu Wei and four classmates, with curiosity about the unknown life and a desire for challenges, were assigned to Anping Village in northern Shaanxi. The living conditions here are far more difficult than they imagined when they were in Beijing. The loess is flying, the wind and sand are everywhere, the simple adobe houses and the narrow village roads all make them feel the unprecedented pressure of life.
At first, they didn't know anything about farm work, even basic farm tools. But Lu Wei and his classmates did not back down, they humbly learned from the local villagers, starting with the most basic hoeing and sowing, and accumulating experience bit by bit. Under the scorching sun, they sweated like rain, and their skin was tanned; They shivered in the cold wind, but they still insisted on working in the fields. Gradually, they began to adapt to the hard life and even found joy in farm work.
The arrival of Lu Wei and his classmates brought new vitality to Anping Village. They are young and knowledgeable, bringing new hope to this small, remote village. The villagers gave them a warm welcome and gave them great help in their lives. Lu Wei and the others gradually integrated into this big family, sharing the bits and pieces of life with the villagers.
During the communication with the villagers, Lu Wei and the others learned about the history and culture of Anping Village. The people here have been farming for generations and have a deep affection for the land. Although their life is simple, it is full of simplicity and sincerity. Lu Wei and the others were infected by this spirit and began to respect and cherish everything here more.
As time passed, Lu Wei and his classmates not only became more and more proficient in farm work, but also established a deep emotional connection with the villagers spiritually. They participate in the daily life of the villagers, whether it is a festival celebration or a happy event, they can be seen. They worked with the villagers, laughed together, and faced the difficulties and challenges of life together.
In his life in Anping Village, Lu Wei also gradually showed his leadership skills. He not only took the lead in farm work, but also played an important role in solving practical problems in the village. Together with his classmates, he helped the village build a canal and improve irrigation conditions. They also organized evening schools to teach the villagers some basic cultural knowledge and skills. These measures have not only improved the living standards of the villagers, but also shortened the distance between them and the villagers.
During the years in Anping Village, Lu Wei and his classmates experienced the process from unsuitable to adapted, from strange to familiar, from estrangement to integration. Here they not only learned the skills of farm work, but also learned the wisdom of life, and experienced the most sincere emotions between people. This experience will become the most precious treasure of their lives and will always be remembered in their hearts.
The love story of Lu Wei and Yang Linna quietly bloomed in the yellow earth of Anping Village. The encounter between the two is like the warmest sunshine in spring, illuminating each other's lives. Yang Linna, a simple and unpretentious girl from northern Shaanxi, deeply touched Lu Wei's heart with her indomitable spirit and love for life. And Lu Wei, a young man from Beijing, also used his sincerity and enthusiasm to win Yang Linna's heart.
However, their path to love was not all smooth sailing. Lu Wei's parents learned that their son was in love with a girl from northern Shaanxi, and their hearts were full of worry and opposition. In their opinion, the son should return to Beijing and find a good partner, instead of staying in this remote village. But Lu Wei and Yang Linna did not give up because of their parents' opposition, they firmly believed that as long as the two were heart-to-heart, nothing could stop their love.
As time went by, Yang Linna became pregnant, and this news was both joy and pressure for Lu Wei. He's about to become a father, which means he'll need to take on more responsibilities. However, at this time, Lu Wei received a notice to return to the city. This news was like a bolt from the blue, and it plunged him into deep contradictions and struggles.
Returning to the city means that he will have the opportunity to return to Beijing, to the environment he once was familiar with, to enjoy better living conditions and development opportunities. But it also means that he may have to leave Yang Linna and the soon-to-be-born child, the place where he has paid sweat and emotion. Lu Wei's heart was full of entanglement, and he didn't know how to choose.
Yang Linna saw Lu Wei's hesitation and pain, and she firmly told Lu Wei that no matter what decision he made, she would support him. She knows that Lu Wei has a responsibility for his family and the pursuit of his personal dreams. She didn't want to be a stumbling block to his pursuit of his dreams, and she didn't want him to give up a better future because of her own ties.
After careful consideration, Lu Wei decided to face this choice with Yang Linna. He knew that whether he chose to stay or leave would be a difficult decision. But he also understands that he can't give up on his lover and children because of temporary difficulties. He needs to make a choice that is responsible for his family and also for himself.
In the following days, Lu Wei and Yang Linna discussed their future life together. They discussed how to balance family and career, and how to create a better environment for their children to grow up. They also began to prepare for Lu Wei's return to the city, whether they stayed in northern Shaanxi or returned to Beijing, they hoped to give each other the greatest support and understanding.
Lu Wei's heart is full of expectations for the future and a sense of responsibility for his family. He knows that whichever path he chooses, it will be a path full of challenges and unknowns. But he believes that as long as there is love, perseverance, and courage, they will be able to overcome all difficulties together and welcome every new sunrise.
Lu Wei stood at the crossroads of his life and faced a difficult choice. In the resolute opposition of his parents, his heart felt as if it had been torn apart, and pain and struggle were intertwined. He knows that every decision he makes will have a profound impact on the trajectory of his future life and relationships with those closest to him.
In the end, after countless sleepless nights of thinking and weighing, Lu Wei made a painful decision - to return to the city alone. This decision is undoubtedly a severe test of his love with Yang Linna, and it is also an evasion of his responsibilities as a father. With deep guilt and reluctance, he left northern Shaanxi, leaving Yang Linna and their young son.
The way back to the city was a lonely and long journey for Lu Wei. In the dead of night, he always thinks of Yang Linna's gentle smiling face and his son's immature call. Those warm pictures, like needles, pierced his heart. He began to question whether his choice was worth sacrificing the happiness and integrity of his family in order to pursue his career and dreams.
After returning to Beijing, Lu Wei's life has not been made easier by the change of environment. On the contrary, he felt lonely and empty like never before. Without Yang Linna's company and his son's laughter, his world became gray and silent. He began to work hard, trying to fill the hole in his heart with busyness, but the longing for his family and the guilt for Yang Linna always followed.
Although Lu Wei's parents expressed their support for his return to the city, they also felt the change in their son. They couldn't help but feel a trace of worry in their hearts when they saw that the smile on Lu Wei's face was getting less and less, and his words were becoming more and more silent. They began to realize that their steadfast opposition at the beginning might not be the best option. The split of the family has brought wounds to everyone's heart that are difficult to heal.
At the same time, Yang Linna, who is far away in northern Shaanxi, is also experiencing the hardships of life and emotional torment. She took on the responsibility of taking care of her son strongly, and at the same time, she silently supported Lu Wei's decision deep down. She knew that Lu Wei's choice was not out of selfishness, but out of consideration for the future of the family. However, whenever night falls, looking at her son's sleeping face, there is always an indescribable sadness in her heart.
Although the connection between Lu Wei and Yang Linna has become thin because of the distance, the love between them has not disappeared because of this. Through letters, they kept in touch with each other and shared the bits and pieces of their lives. In the letter, Lu Wei expressed his thoughts about Yang Linna and his son, as well as his deep guilt for his decision. In her reply, Yang Linna gave him understanding and encouragement, letting him know that no matter where they are, their hearts are always closely connected.
This decision has undoubtedly brought great changes to Lu Wei's life. He began to re-examine his life and think about what true happiness and success are. He realized that material abundance does not bring inner peace, and the warmth of family and the company of lovers are the most valuable treasures in life. Deep down in his heart, Lu Wei always longed for the day when he could make up for his mistakes and rebuild the family that was once full of love.
As the years passed, Lu Wei's sideburns gradually became frost white, and his heart gradually became deep and soft. The growth of age did not make him forget the past, but made his memory of those years in northern Shaanxi more and more clear. In the dead of night, Lu Wei always thinks of Yang Linna and his son, and the longing and guilt hidden in his heart come to his heart like a tide.
Lu Wei began to reflect on his choices, and he realized that no matter how successful his career was, without the warmth of family, life would always seem empty and incomplete. He longs to get to know his son, make up for the missed time in those years, and hope to be able to support and help his son in his own way.
By chance, Lu Wei contacted several old classmates, who had been in the queue together in northern Shaanxi and experienced that unforgettable time together. After learning about Lu Wei's wish, the old classmates expressed their willingness to help him, and they finally helped Lu Wei get in touch with his son through various channels.
When Lu Wei heard his son's voice on the phone for the first time, his heart was full of excitement and nervousness. He didn't know how to express his feelings, and he didn't know if his son would be willing to accept him, a father he hadn't seen in years. However, to his relief, although his son was a little unfamiliar with Lu Wei, he did not refuse to communicate with him.
Lu Wei knows that material compensation cannot fully make up for his absence over the years, but he still hopes to provide better living conditions for his son through his own efforts. So, he decided to give a property he had in Beijing as a gift to his son, hoping to use it as a way to make up for his past.
Lu Wei's son was also touched in his heart after learning his father's intentions. Although he didn't know much about Lu Wei, he could feel his father's deep love and guilt. After a period of thinking and communicating, the son gradually accepted Lu Wei's compensation and reached a reconciliation with him.
Lu Wei's move not only provided his son with material help, but also shortened the distance between them spiritually. They began to share each other's lives and feelings through phone calls, letters, and even face-to-face communication. Lu Wei told his son the story of his youth and his experience in northern Shaanxi in those years, hoping to let his son understand himself better.
With the deepening of exchanges, the relationship between Lu Wei and his son is gradually heating up. They began to plan for the time they would be able to spend together in the future, whether it was traveling together or enjoying family fun at home. Lu Wei's heart was full of anticipation, and he knew that despite missing out on his son's growth, he still had the opportunity to participate in his son's future.
This experience made Lu Wei more deeply aware of the importance of family. He began to cherish the time he spent with his family even more, whether it was communicating with his son or getting together with old classmates. He realized that the meaning of life lies not only in personal achievement, but also in the mutual companionship and support with his loved ones.
Lu Wei's story is a journey of growth, choice, and reconciliation. It tells us that no matter how the years change, the warmth of family and the power of affection are always the most precious wealth in life. And for those who have missed the time, as long as we are willing to make up for it and work hard, there is always a chance to regain the lost love.
