Flash Marriage in the 1970s: Pampered by the Military Officer

Yang Qingyan, a survivor of a devastating apocalypse, transmigrates into the body of a woman who suffered to death a year prior due to severe neglect and abuse by her in-laws. Her new husband, Mu Nanhe, is a dedicated battalion commander who had been away on continuous missions for the past year. Although he had arranged for financial support to be sent home, his family withheld the money, leading to the original host's starvation. When Yang Qingyan arrives at the military compound to find him, she is emaciated and weak, carrying deep resentment toward the man who failed to protect her. Mu Nanhe is shocked and guilt-ridden upon discovering her condition, realizing his family betrayed his trust. He moves her into the family quarters, the former residence of a retired commander, and vows to fulfill his duties as a husband.

The couple’s relationship begins with significant emotional distance. Yang Qingyan remains cold and guarded, while Mu Nanhe struggles to bridge the gap caused by his year-long absence. Their dynamic shifts when Yang Qingyan demonstrates her exceptional medical skills, which she honed during the apocalypse. She successfully treats a critically ill child in the compound using acupuncture and herbal medicine, earning the respect of her neighbors. This act of kindness begins to soften the community’s perception of her, though it also attracts the jealousy of Wei Lan, a young woman from a military performance troupe who harbors romantic feelings for Mu Nanhe. Wei Lan’s hostility creates early tension, but Mu Nanhe firmly rejects her advances, prioritizing his wife.

As Mu Nanhe moves back into the family quarters to live with Yang Qingyan, he attempts to rebuild their connection through daily acts of care, such as cooking meals and managing household chores. Yang Qingyan, meanwhile, uses her unique wood-element ability to slowly heal her damaged body and absorb natural energy from the mountains. A pivotal moment occurs when Mu Nanhe injures his back protecting Yang Qingyan from a falling child. His selflessness deepens her respect for him, and she tends to his wounds with genuine concern. This incident marks a turning point in their relationship, as the ice between them begins to melt.

Conflict escalates when Wei Lan falsely accuses Yang Qingyan of pushing a child into a river, leading to a public confrontation. Despite the accusations and the initial disbelief of the child’s mother, Yang Qingyan saves the drowning boy using CPR and her abilities. Mu Nanhe trusts her completely and supports her during the crisis. The truth eventually emerges, clearing Yang Qingyan’s name and exposing Wei Lan’s malice. Following this, Yang Qingyan experiences physical changes, including severe menstrual pain, which Mu Nanhe tenderly alleviates. During this vulnerable moment, she dreams of the original host, who gives her blessing to live her life fully. The story concludes with Yang Qingyan accepting her new identity and future, as she and Mu Nanhe begin to build a genuine partnership based on mutual care and respect in the peaceful 1970s setting.
