Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but recall the theme song that once swept across the nation, several storms, several springs and autumns... Those who haven’t experienced those times will never understand what this TV show aims to express, nor the content of the song. Even Great Grandfather waited in front of the TV every day on time because he had personally lived through many of the show’s scenes. In her past life, Gu Qiaoqiao had watched this drama twice. When the family compound of the army could watch TV, Qin Yize immediately brought over a television set. However, because it was located at the borders, the distance to the signal tower was really far, so the TV signal was very weak. Furthermore, there was a layer of snowflakes on the screen, and the figures were blurred. So, Gu Qiaoqiao seldom watched TV, but the theme song was firmly etched in her mind.

It should have been during the 1988 Army Day, when the intellectuals from the Border City Base laboratory, family members from the family compound, and local troops held a gala together. She had grown up by then, and become much more understanding, so she was pulled into the performance group by Du Shuang. Gu Qiaoqiao had a good voice, loud too, and everyone unanimously wanted her to sing. She couldn’t refuse, especially when she heard Qin Yize would also attend. She sang the theme song of the TV show: "The Aspiration of Youth Doesn’t Speak of Sorrow." Although she didn’t convey the lofty aspirations of youth, her singing carried a touch of feminine softness, yet with an unexpected blend of strength and tenderness. It was the most popular performance at the gala that evening. The entire military personnel listened so intently that they forgot to applaud. It was her first stage appearance. Due to limited resources, there was no accompaniment, so Gu Qiaoqiao sang acapella. When she finished, everyone on the Border City Base playground quietly looked at her. There was no applause like for the other performances. For a moment, there was complete silence. As she stood on stage, awkwardly holding the microphone, Qin Yize was the first to stand up. Not far away, she saw his eyes, sparkling like countless stars. Suddenly everyone seemed to react, and it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say they all stood up. Including the stern local troop captain who spoke Sichuan dialect. In an instant, the applause thundered, cheers were deafening. And filled with deep emotion. Some soldiers even wiped their tears. Gu Qiaoqiao hadn’t expected such a reception. She was completely stunned. It was Du Shuang who happily led her away from the stage. And below, countless voices shouted: "Encore, encore..." There are many stories in her memory, but she doesn’t remember every one. Perhaps only when specific conditions trigger them, might they suddenly come to mind. Like today, the familiar melody. She thought, if not for subsequent changes, if she were still alive, she and Qin Yize, despite being scarred, would also be as happy as they are in this lifetime after avenging great wrongs. Gu Qiaoqiao wiped away the tears in her eyes, looked at the hall, and slightly curled her lips. Actually, this drama was aired last year, and this is a rerun, but last year, none of the family members watched it. Gu Qiaoqiao flexed her soft waist, hid her thoughts in her eyes, and slowly walked toward her courtyard. Gu Garden is nice and beautiful, but sometimes, it still feels rather quiet.
