Hope the Spring Breeze

After Japan and the United States declared war, Lin Chenhui stopped studying in Japan and returned to his hometown - Taiwan. To welcome his son back, Lin Tongren specially invited relatives and friends to celebrate together. Chen Hui and his fiancée Xiulan danced and sang the Taiwanese folk song "Looking at the Spring Breeze". Suddenly, the security guard burst in with Japanese officers and beat him without any explanation. Nephew Weiguo nodded hurriedly and bowed before the Japanese officer left. Firecrackers went off, and Chenhui and Xiulan were officially engaged. People blessed them both, but there was a shadow hidden on Wei Guo's smiling face. It turned out that Wei Guo also loved Xiulan and fantasized about Xiulan being his wife. Weiguo found the ruffian Hou Junzheng and asked for a "high chess" game. They bribed the Japanese to capture Chen Hui as a soldier, and pretended to be sympathetic to let them escape. Chen Hui and Xiulan were not far away by boat when they were stopped by a Japanese patrol boat and Chen Hui was captured. Weiguo forced Xiulan to marry him, but she was flatly refused. Hou Junzheng occupied the Lin family's property, Lin Tongren died in anger, and the housekeeper A Yongbo also lost his eyesight. Xiulan was forced to work as a waitress in the "Cuihua House" and was humiliated in the restaurant. She was so angry that she stabbed Weiguo to death. Ahua, a wine girl, was shot to death by Hou Junzheng in order to cover Xiulan's escape. Chen Hui was captured and sent to the Philippines to fight against the United States. In a battle, he was seriously injured. Fortunately, the indigenous old man and his daughter Ruonan rescued him.
