I haven't seen the sunrise for years.
It's beautiful.
What are you doing?
I'm enjoying the sunrise.
Why are you filming me?
Aren't you filming the sunrise?
I'm filming the man
who is watching the sunrise with me now.
He's Xie Zhiyao.
He's a handsome man on the way to entrepreneurship.
He's a bit poor.
But…
he abides by male morality.
He is kind and filial.
As his friend,
I'm here to help him get married.
There's no need.
I want to pursue my career.
You didn't say so last time.
I haven't washed my face. There's an eye booger.
-Don't shoot me. -That's okay.
-Stop. -Okay.
Youyu.
I have to go.
Wait.
Where are you going?
I'm going back to see my parents.
Gosh.
Are you refining pills?
I just woke up. I haven't cleaned up.
Will anyone take you to the airport?
Xiaochun is taking me there.
Why are you leaving all of a sudden?
Don't see me off.
I'm not. Stop daydreaming.
I'm going downstairs.
Come on.
-I can do it. -You're not young anymore.
Let go.
Damai, see you.
Take care.
Don't see me off.
-Give it to me. -I'm not seeing you off.
I just want to go out.
Go.
You're not awake. Don't go out.
I'm off.
Come on.
Be careful.
There are cups in it.
Don't break them.
EARTHEN HOUSE
Give it to me.
Bye.
Wait, you…
Take care.
Text me when you get home.
Okay, I'll inform you in the group chat.
-Go back inside. -Have a safe trip.
Good.
Mr. Ma has cheered up.
That's good.
I'm upset.
I can't write a song.
I can't write a script.
Should we…
lease land in the village?
What do we plant?
Plant what?
What's your idea?
Flowers.
What flowers?
Flowers that will help everything go well.
And you?
I…
will plant the sun.
Plant the sun?
The sun
Brings us
Seven colors of light
-It shines on the flowers of our hearts -It shines on the flowers of our hearts
-Beautiful and cute -Beautiful and cute
-Today, we grow up in the sun -Today, we grow up in the sun
-Tomorrow, we'll create a beautiful world -Tomorrow, we'll create a beautiful world
-Come on -Come on
Is that the song?
Maybe not.
It's okay.
Come on
-Come on -Come on
-Seven colors of light -Seven colors of light
-Is the sunshine -Is the
-We walk into the future -We walk into the future
-With colorful dreams -With colorful dreams
Seven colors of light
Sunshine
You cooked the rice well. Why aren't you eating?
I have no appetite.
You won't eat?
What a waste.
The grandmas said that after we die,
we have to eat all the food we wasted before we can be reborn.
Thank you.
What's wrong?
I'm just thinking about
how to help my friend.
You have money. Just lend her some.
Superficial.
This is not a matter of money.
It's about work.
She…
She is not confident.
Encourage her.
Cheer her up.
Eat your leftovers.
When I studied wood carving,
my master always scolded me
for my poor work.
I wanted to give up then.
But once,
I overheard him scolding the juniors.
He said, "You shouldn't learn from Xiaxia.
He is lazy,
but he is quick-witted, skillful, and easy to teach."
I was very happy.
You just like to hear your master praise you.
No.
I think we need positive encouragement.
I did that with her.
I told her she was great.
However,
there seems to be no big incentive effect.
Maybe she thought it was just etiquette.
No.
I was sincere.
Do you think
I should repeat it to her several times,
just like brainwashing?
I'M REVISING THE MANUSCRIPT. YOU EAT FIRST.
YOU'VE DONE VERY WELL. DON'T PUSH YOURSELF HARD. EAT FIRST.
I failed.
Damai is revising. She won't eat.
What happened?
She usually eats most actively.
I cooked too much.
Let's ask Mr. Hu to come.
Okay.
Mr. Hu.
HU YOUYU
WHAT?
Do you want to eat rice noodles?
NO. I'M GOING TO BED.
He texted saying he won't eat. He has gone to bed.
But he's usually the noisiest.
That's strange.
Listen.
Sometimes, the mood of an artist
fluctuates greatly.
When I came back,
I saw Damai and Mr. Hu sitting there,
being at their wit's end.
They weren't very energetic.
I cooked too much. It's wasteful.
Let your fiancé eat it.
My fiancé?
Perhaps he has gone to bed.
I find that you have a great advantage.
What?
You can take jokes easily.
Only the funny things are jokes.
Others may not think the same.
The main reason is that I have a high tolerance.
I once worked in a hotel.
No matter what the guest says,
you must accept it.
You have to smile and be convinced.
What if it is a very serious case?
Such as defamation, slander,
and damage to personal reputation.
Then we would let him be punished by law.
Zhiyao, what do you want to eat?
I'll cook for you.
It's too late. I don't want to eat.
That's not okay.
I'll cook some rice cake noodles.
And I cooked a lot of minced meat this morning.
I'll add some
with two poached eggs,
it will be yummy.
Grandma.
I forgot to tell you there is no meat at home.
No way.
There was half a pot left this morning.
I took it to the yard.
You're so kind to her.
Does she appreciate it?
Xu Hongdou and I are just friends.
Did I mention Hongdou?
You…
Go downstairs, okay?
I'm busy writing the promotion plan.
I'm going to cook.
You must eat.
Got it.
WECHAT, NOW
GONE TO BED? DO YOU EAT RICE NOODLES?
Grandma, you don't have to cook.
Is this the minced meat from my home?
Yes.
What did you cook?
Rice noodles with cabbage.
Well done, Kitchen God.
I'm just joking.
I have to say Mr. Xie is a good cook.
Grandma taught me.
But she puts too much salt these days,
so I don't let her cook.
But did you say
Mr. Hu was not in good spirits?
He's a bit upset.
It's probably because of unemployment.
Unemployment?
The two restaurants where he sang at closed.
Haven't you noticed that he hasn't gone out these days?
I don't think so.
Two restaurants closed?
Did he see my dad?
Your dad was just here for a few days.
Apart from the memorial day
when he collected potatoes at Aunt Feng's home
and went around our stores to inquire about the business,
did he have time to discuss music with Mr. Hu?
According to the buzzword,
my dad is a master of time management.
Come on.
No.
What has it to do with your dad?
It's very unusual.
My dad adored Mr. Hu when he first knew
that he was a musician.
Of course Mr. Hu was very happy.
So he sang the songs he wrote to my dad
and humbly asked him for suggestions.
My dad took it seriously.
He let others in the market listen to them
and let them share their opinions.
Then?
Then they made many suggestions.
To summarize, the songs were bad.
No one thinks they're good?
Some people like them.
Since he asked for advice, they must make some.
For example, "Although the song sounds good,
the lyrics are poor.
It's just about love. Sentimental. Small pattern."
"If the business value is low,
it definitely won't be popular.
It's better to learn to howl."
Are they all that professional?
Yes.
As a result, my dad feels quite superior
when facing Mr. Hu.
He always lectures him and asks him to learn from Phoenix Legend.
Why not persuade your dad?
I did.
But he said,
"I want to let him make progress.
Besides, Xiaohu is very modest."
First, he called him Mr. Hu
and later called him Xiaohu.
Okay, cut.
-Cut? -Well done.
My face is cramping from smiling.
This one is good. Your smile is good.
But there's a small problem.
Those grandmas are in the shot.
Can you tell them
and ask them to sit further back?
Okay, I will.
Wait here.
Hi, ladies.
-We're filming over there… -Damai.
-Have water. -Okay.
Tired?
No. I've been sitting here.
I told you filming was very interesting. Am I right?
It's meaningful.
I think it's very tough to go here and there.
It's not hard at all.
It's like a holiday.
When I just graduated,
I went to Guizhou with a crew to shoot a documentary.
The mountain road was difficult to walk.
Cars couldn't enter.
Sometimes, I followed those who carried machines.
That's amazing.
You can't quit when they're all doing it.
I think Xinxin is great.
I was on a debate team in college.
She was two grades below me.
In the debate,
she fully showed her ability.
She looked cute,
but she was quite aggressive.
She's really great.
It's not just that.
Xinxin used to stutter
when she talks to others.
Sometimes, she cried in anger
when she was in a hurry.
She joined the debate team
to change herself.
Huang Xinxin stuttered before?
How did she change that?
With a lot of practice.
She looks in the mirror every day and tells herself
that she is excellent, she can do it, and she will do it.
That's so mysterious.
This is the power of faith.
When you believe that you can change everything,
everything will change.
-You can give it a try. -Thank you, ladies. Thank you.
Thank you. Bye.
-Thank you. -Sure.
Sunzi, it's done.
-Okay. Let's shoot one more time. -One more time.
Smile happily.
-Be contagious. -Okay. Happy.
Like last time.
-Can you do it? -Come on.
Jiahui, you behave so well.
Mr. Hu.
Mr. Hu, are you inside?
Who is it?
I'm Xiaochun. Why didn't you answer my call?
-Xiaochun? -Open the door.
I muted my phone.
What's wrong with you?
I just woke up. I haven't cleaned up.
What is it?
-Please do me a favor. -Say it.
The accordion teacher of Xiaohulu's kindergarten left.
The children are singing without accompaniment.
I would like you to give two music classes.
I can't play the accordion.
It doesn't matter.
They have an electronic organ.
I can play that.
But I can't teach children.
-Look for someone else. -Who else can help?
I only know one professional singer and that is you.
It's easy to teach children.
You sing and they learn. That's enough.
No.
You must.
Take a bath, change your clothes,
and clean up.
Remember. Don't wear fancy clothes.
Don't let the children smell tobacco and alcohol.
I have promised them.
Prepare a children's song.
Be on time for class at 2:30 p.m.
No. Bye.
Be on time for class at 2:30 p.m.
See you.
-Xiaochun. -2:30 p.m.
-No, I can't. -2:30 p.m.
What a day.
Hello, everyone.
This is Mr. Hu who will give us a music lesson today.
Everybody, come on.
Hello, Mr. Hu.
-Hello, Mr. Hu. -Hello, Mr. Hu.
Hello.
Clap your hands.
Welcome, Mr. Hu.
-Welcome, Mr. Hu. -Welcome, Mr. Hu.
What song did you prepare?
"Seven Colors of Light." Have they learned it?
No.
Is it okay?
-Yes. -Okay.
Sing it for them first.
Sing it first?
Do you want to hear Mr. Hu sing?
-Yes! -Yes!
Clap your hands. Let's encourage him.
I'll give it a try.
The sun
Brings us
Seven colors of light
It shines on the flowers of our hearts
Beautiful and cute
Today, we grow up in the sun
Tomorrow, we'll create a beautiful world
Come on
Seven colors of light
Is the sunshine
We walk into the future
With colorful dreams
Is the song beautiful?
-Yes! -Yes!
Clap your hands.
Thank you.
YOUFENG CAFÉ
Do you know?
For the promotional video,
Damai arranged a scene
for you and your fiancé.
What scene?
Taking a horse for a walk by the seaside
at sunset.
That's more romantic
than splashing water in the sun.
What's your scene?
I won't appear in it.
But our yard will appear.
I've told Junzi
my face won't appear,
just my back and the tea.
No.
Sunzi.
No, why…
Why is her name Sunzi?
It's said that her mom is Zhuzi.
Zhuzi?
No wonder.
It's done.
Look.
Is it okay?
Yes. It's great.
-This is it. -I'll send it.
Hello, Mom.
Hongdou, you sent so many hams again.
Your dad can't carry it.
I sent two pieces last time and you said it was delicious.
It was pickled by my friend's relatives.
Give some to my aunts.
That's good.
What are you doing now?
I'm basking in the sun in the yard.
-Fourth aunt. -You're in your thirties,
but you're just like your grandma.
Basking in the sun?
How is the new home?
When will you move?
It's finished.
I'm thinking
that you'll come back to move
one month later.
You should tidy up the things in your room.
I don't know what you want to keep or throw away.
Okay.
Don't buy more things for us.
Got it.
The knife won't cut.
The cleaver doesn't work either.
Why not borrow one from the neighbor?
-Okay. -Hongdou, I have to hang up.
Your dad and I will try to cut the ham.
That's all, Mom and Dad.
Bye.
Honey, I think she sounds very happy
when she calls recently.
I dare not say it before.
I thought Hongdou was deathly still.
Whatever she did, she had no spirit.
Deathly still?
Can you speak properly?
If you can't, then shut up.
It's just an adjective.
I don't want to hear such adjectives.
What the heck?
I'm not good at talking,
so don't be angry.
Where are you going?
I'm going to borrow a knife.
When you're angry,
you're not cute at all.
So you're cute?
You're Cute Xu.
Yes, I'm Cute Xu.
I'll ride my motorcycle to go and borrow a knife.
Are your parents moving?
My sister bought them a house.
I paid the decoration fee.
It's good to raise daughters.
Yes.
Girls are golden flowers.
Nana, which boy do you like? Tell me.
I'll take him to you at the next Double Third Festival.
Grandma Xiuying, you only care about me.
What about Hongdou?
Hongdou already has Zhiyao.
Hongdou, let me tell you.
There is no man with a better character
and appearance than Zhiyao.
Grandma Xiuying.
Zhiyao and I are just friends.
I'll leave soon,
so you should introduce a suitable girl to him.
You don't want him anymore?
Even if you ask me 100 times,
I will still say
that I'm not in love with him.
We're just working together.
I think Zhiyao really likes you.
Grandma Xiuying.
Don't be upset.
Although Hongdou will leave, I won't.
How about me?
You're also pretty.
Yes. Can I find a man?
How about Xiaxia?
Xiaxia?
He's just a little boy.
I like mature men
like Mr. Xie.
Like me?
Mr. Xie. Why are you here?
I saw some sour papaya, so I bought some for you guys.
What were you talking about?
I told Grandma Xiuying
that I liked mature men like you.
You have good taste.
Grandma Xiuying, sour papaya.
No, thank you.
Nana, do you have iced tea?
Yes.
Have you ever eaten sour papaya?
-No. -Try it.
Is it sour?
You'll know when you try it.
Thank you.
It's particularly sour.
Is it sour?
It's just so-so.
You like sour food.
You're the girl of vinegar.
What?
It's nonsense.
When the rain stopped,
Zeqing went up the mountain and collected a lot of mushrooms.
We're going to Qingdao.
I'm going to fry more fimbria for Dayang and Xiaoxi.
Here you are. One packet each.
Okay. Is it enough?
Yes. It's enough.
Who will take charge of the yard?
I've discussed this with Feng.
During my time in Qingdao,
Feng will be responsible for sanitation.
She'll come to the yard later
and I'll teach her.
It's very complex.
I'll pay her 50 yuan each day.
I'm going to see Feng.
Okay.
Feng.
Chuchu.
Aunt Gui, you're here.
Xiaoyue.
Do me a favor.
Do you want some water? I'll get some.
No, it's fine. I'm not thirsty.
Why did you come?
We're not off duty.
I know.
Zeqing went up the mountain to collect some mushrooms.
I'm here to share.
-This is for you. -Thank you.
-This is yours. -Great.
I can cook for my grandma tonight.
Is it fresh?
Yes.
Hotels outside are buying it
at a high price.
But I don't care about that money.
Am I right?
Eat it when it's fresh.
Cook with some ham. It's delicious.
Did Dayang and Xiaoxi send you red packets
on your birthday?
Not only on my birthday,
but I also receive red packets every festival.
Zeqing and I can't spend all that money.
All right.
The money is for my granddaughter. Right?
You're lucky.
Of course.
Feng.
Here.
Two for you.
They are filled with ganba fungus.
I have to go.
See you in the yard.
Come when you're off duty.
Got it.
Take care, Aunt Gui.
Okay.
I'm going to see Hongdou.
Take care.
See you.
Yueyue, Chuchu.
Take the mushrooms.
My husband and I don't eat it.
You don't?
I'm not used to the flavor.
Take them.
Okay.
We think
since Dayang and his wife are busy,
I can go to Qingdao
to take care of their child.
It's okay.
Before she goes to kindergarten,
I can take her back
and look after her, right?
But Dayang disagreed.
He said,
"You have worked hard all your life.
Don't work anymore.
You should have a good rest."
Dayang is really filial.
-Yes. -Aunt Gui.
Are you sure these are not toxic?
They're not toxic.
Xiaoxi is more filial.
She scolded her brother some time ago.
She said he didn't call me often.
Xiaoxi calls me every day.
How often do you call your parents?
Is it lurid bolete?
Yes.
This will take a long time to fry.
A long time.
-Then what's this? -Tomorrow…
Nana.
I'm chatting with Hongdou.
Fine, these are not toxic.
I'll handle the mushrooms.
Hongdou.
How often do you call your mom?
Every few days.
I don't have much to say.
You have no time to call when you are busy.
You don't call when you're free.
When will you call?
Will you call when there's an emergency?
You'll be less close.
Yes.
I'm going to Qingdao
to eat seafood.
Do you want water?
No…
I think
I'd better make more flower cakes.
I should ask Baoping
to make more fan cheese
for all the leaders and colleagues
of Dayang and Xiaoxi to taste.
And some ham rice dumplings.
Since Xiaohuang is going to film,
you can make rice dumplings.
Show your face.
I have a role.
Really?
That's great.
When it's finished, send it to your parents.
It's an honor.
Listen.
I told Xiaoxi that I would be an actress.
She didn't believe it.
Total disbelief.
Look. I'll send the video to her
so that she'll believe me.
I didn't expect I could be an actress.
-Yes. -Right?
You can appear in the video.
Let's appear together.
-Friends in the live broadcast… -Excuse me.
You can watch, but no photos.
Excuse me. No photos are allowed.
Please don't run around. Thank you.
Okay. Stop.
Nana, let's discuss this.
Can you show your face?
No.
Why?
She's so good-looking.
She's unwilling.
Her hands are also nice.
They were natural and smooth.
Yes, I don't want to.
Okay, let's do it another way.
When you film, go downward.
Yes. From the hand.
Go backward.
Go upward.
Yes. Go slowly.
Does it not look good?
You asked me to do their makeup.
It's good.
Aunt Baoping.
Take a photo for us.
-Together? -Come on.
-Come take a photo. -Come on.
-Stand still. -Look there.
Here I go.
One, two, three.
Okay.
Wash your eyes.
And the rouge.
Where are the other kids?
Let me call them.
Use the soap. Wash with soap.
-Uncle Zhiyao. -Uncle Zhiyao.
-Come on. -Hurry up.
-Come wash your face. -Wash your face.
Make way for them.
-Forward. -Step aside.
Kitty!
Okay, cut.
That was very good.
Children. Do it once again, okay?
Well done.
Once again.
Okay. Go back.
Great. Come on.
Run one more time.
Okay!
When can we stop walking?
Until Sunzi films what she wants.
Don't look back.
Don't look at the lens.
Get closer, you two!
Have a chat.
Hold hands.
Do whatever Sunzi asks you to do.
Let's finish earlier.
-Yes. -That's it. Keep that.
Say something.
She asked us to chat.
Where are your cold jokes?
Hurry up and tell me.
Cold jokes?
You didn't drink.
What happened?
It's too hot.
-Don't you think so? -Hot?
But your hands are sweaty.
Hold my arm then.
Right.
Mr. Ma called me.
He is dutiful at home.
He washes, mops, and cooks.
But his parents don't give him good comments.
He dares not blame them.
So he is afraid of someone.
Damai designed this scene
where lovers walk by the sea
while leading a horse.
She likes that.
