Fools have their own fortune. Although Ah-Tu was severely injured, his strong physique helped him escape from danger, and he gradually began to recover.
Whenever Ashan had a day off, he would visit Ah-Tu and another injured soldier at the hospital. During one visit, he noticed that Ah-Tu's medical record indicated his blood type as B, while the other soldier was O. Could it be that his blood was donated to his childhood friend, Ah-Tu?
After learning from the doctor and his fellow injured soldiers about Ashan's blood donation, Ah-Tu felt deeply touched. He was secretly happy that now there was military blood flowing in his veins. Although it wasn't much, he thought that his military actions would be more competent from now on. Lost in thought, he unconsciously raised his hand to salute a few times. Hmm! Not bad at all!
After a significant period of recovery, Ah-Tu and the other soldier were finally discharged from the hospital. The cooks in their unit prepared pig's trotter noodles to celebrate their return from the ordeal. Seeing Ah-Tu devour three bowls in a row, both the company commander and Ashan felt relieved.
Ah-Tu insisted that Ashan write a letter home to report his safety and inform his family that Ashan had donated blood to him. Unable to resist Ah-Tu's persistence, Ashan agreed to write a simple letter explaining the situation and assuring Ah-Tu's parents not to worry.
A few weeks later, Ashan received a letter from Ah-Mei. In it, she expressed heartfelt gratitude from the entire family for everything Ashan had done for Ah-Tu, and she hoped to thank him in person someday. She also mentioned that she had graduated from high school, helping her parents run their herbal medicine shop back in Sanxia. Zhou Dachuan’s grandfather had passed away, and Zhou Dachuan had moved to Taipei for work.
As Ashan read Ah-Mei's letter, he was struck by her neat handwriting, which reflected her personality—proper and delicate. He couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for her. Why did fate take away the voice of such a lovely girl?
傻人自有天相。阿土雖然受傷很重，但是平日身體健壯，所以從險境脫離了出來，也逐漸的康復中。
阿三一到休假日，就到醫院去探視阿土及另一位弟兄。無意中發現阿土的病歷卡上血型登錄的是Ｂ型，另一位弟兄是Ｏ型。難道自己的血，是輸給了阿土這位小時的玩伴？
阿土經過醫生的告知及受傷同伴的解說，知道了阿三輸血給他的事後，非常感動。在心裏面也偷偷地高興，現在自己的體內也流著軍人的血液。雖然不多，不過以後軍事動作總比較像樣了吧！想著，想著，不覺地舉起手做幾個標準敬禮的動作。嗯！真的不賴哦！
阿土及另一位伙房弟兄在不算短的調養後，終於出院了。伙房的阿兵哥特地煮了豬腳麵線，慶賀他們歷險歸來。看著阿土一連吃了三碗，連長及阿三都把牽掛的心放了下來。
阿土央求著阿三一定要寫封信，回家去報平安，同時要告訴阿土家人阿三輸血給他的事。阿三搞不過阿土的糾纏，只好去信簡單的說明，並請阿土父母放心。
數週後阿三收到一封阿美寫來的信，信中除了代表全家衷心感激阿三為阿土所做的一切以外，也希望日後有機會當面謝謝阿三。信中並提到她已經從盲啞學生高中畢業，現在已回到三峽的家中幫忙父母照顧草藥舖子。周大川的爺爺已經過世，而周大川也到台北去就業了。
阿三看了阿美的字，真的跟她的人一樣。端端正正，秀秀氣氣，又難免為阿美惋惜。唉！上天為什麼要奪取這麼可愛女孩的聲音呢？
