Venue: Dagang's home.
There is a table and two chairs on the stage. Hongyan is sitting on the chair on the left side of the table knitting, and aunt is playing with her baby. They have been talking and laughing ...
B: Hongyan, I feel so bored these two days that my eyelids are pounding. Will everything be all right in Dagang? !
A: Maybe you are thinking about Dagang. Mom, don't worry. Dagang is in a state-owned coal mine, and it will be fine. The baby will be two years old tomorrow, and it's time for Dagang to go home now. A few days ago, before I went down the well, she called me and said that she should be home today, and the holiday was over. Said I'd buy you some good clothes when I came back this time.
I am old and still wearing the same clothes. I just hope he can come back safely. The baby's name is dad, scream. [The baby cried, and Aunt and Hongyan were amused by the baby. Hongyan, you haven't finished!
A: Mom, this is my first time to play, and my level is not good. I wonder if Dagang can like it.
B: So is Dagang. Just pay for it. It's hard for you. Come back, I have to say he can't.
No, mom. You don't know, he called several times and said that wearing a sweater made by his wife is just like his wife sticking to himself. Ha ha. What do you think they will say after work? Interesting.
Oh, I see. I'll teach you how to play with some flowers next time. Hongyan, how long will Dagang work in the mine?
A: I don't know, mom. I know you are worried about Dagang's safety. You can rest assured that he will be fine. What we are talking about now is earning nearly 2000 yuan a month in the mine, which is much better than working outside. I have an appointment with Dagang. Work for another year, and when we have enough money, are we going to open a pig farm?
B: Yes, isn't the Lao Li family in our village raising pigs? Dagang works in a coal mine, but I just don't feel at ease. Really, I make a wish to God every day that if Dagang comes back safely this year, I will buy him a pig's head.
A: Superstition. Mom, I know what you're thinking. Why don't we discuss it when we get back from freshman year? It's almost dawn, and this Dagang should be home by this time. How's it going? Do you want me to find the village chief?
You can knit a sweater at home. I'll hold Bao Xiao. Baby, let's go find dad, okay? We need to dress the baby. It's cold outside.
Li Qiang went on stage to read a diary.
I am a member of the coal mine union. A large gas explosion occurred at 1 1.20 in my mine, and 148 miners' brothers were killed. This 148 miner's brother was killed, which made the 148 family lose happiness. Every time I go to inform the families of the victims, I see and hear. It's all sad tears and crying I feel uncomfortable. This family belongs to Wang Dagang. I seem to be busy at home. What will they be like when they hear the bad news? (Knocking at the door) Is anyone home?
A: Is it Dagang? Mom, look who's here.
(Holding the baby out) Who is it? Is it Dagang? Come on in! [The baby calls his father]
Oh, be a good boy. I'm not my father. I work with my father. Hello, auntie. You must be Dagang's mother.
Yes, this is his daughter-in-law. Hongyan, go and pour tea for others.
All right, go in and sit down. Isn't Dagang coming back with you soon?
C: I'm here for Dagang.
B: What's the matter? !
I see!
Do you know that?/You know what? !
Are you from the trade union?
Yes, that's you! ?
A: Are you here to find Dagang to become a full member? Dagang has called me to tell me the good news!
B: what do you mean by becoming a full member? Didn't you say that you won't go down the well when you get back, and you are going to raise pigs at home?
Mom, your son is no longer a farmer, he will take the salary of the court. Now he is a regular worker in the mine. Do you understand?
B: Not good? It is better to raise pigs at home! Did Dagang really become a full member?
Oh, ah, yes. Dagang is a good miner, who can bear hardships and loves to learn. Now the mine is approved.
A: Great, don't go today, I'll go to the market to cut the meat!
Oh, no, one more thing?
B: What's the matter? Come on. I said my eyelids are pounding these days. Thought it was a bad thing. It turned out to be a good thing!
C: Auntie, Dagang ... He had an accident underground.
What happened to Dagang? Is it serious? Where is it now? Tell me quickly!
Is there a problem? What is this?
C: A gas explosion occurred in our mine at 1 1.20, and 148 miners were killed underground, including Wang Dagang.
My son. [faint]
A: Mom. Mom, wake up, mom, mom, wake up.
C: Auntie, wake up and pinch someone. [Aunt wakes up slowly] Aunt, you should take good care of yourself. Let me know if you have any requirements! B: I don't want anything. I want my son, Dagang, my son.
Dagang, didn't you agree to celebrate the baby's birthday with us tomorrow? How can we live without you? [The baby is crying with its mother in its arms]
C: Aunt, I'm sorry for your loss. We have a car here. You can take Dagang home with me.
B: Dagang, my son, your life is so hard. How can I live? You give me my son back, give me my son back. [loudly condemns]
C: auntie, don't do this. If you feel uncomfortable, why don't you hit me? Okay？ Auntie! !
Son, why did I hit you? Let me ask you, aren't you a state-owned mine? Why so many people died. Why? Why?
C: Don't worry, Aunt, we will give you a satisfactory answer. Let's go to the mine now, shall we
A: Mom, let's go to the mine to meet Dagang and ask them to give us a satisfactory answer. Don't embarrass others. Mom, you hold Bao Xiao first, and I'll get something! [Hongyan hands the baby to her mother and walks to the table to pick up the sweater] Dagang, you can't wear it alive. I'll definitely put it on you when you leave. Dagang ... [Hongyan picked up her sweater and cried. The mother pounced on the baby in her arms, and the three mothers embraced each other. The music starts slowly ...]
