(Grandpa beckons Cui Cui to come over and mysteriously takes out a handful of candied dates from his pocket and hands them to Cui Cui)
Grandpa: Look what Grandpa brought you back.
(Cui Cui scolds Grandpa, while taking the sweet dates and eating them. )
Cui: Grandpa left his family at home and went out by himself for so long that he didn't care.
(Grandpa looks at Cui Cui kindly)
Ye: Hehe, I'm an adult. Hey ~ Cui Cui, is the Dragon Boat Festival coming soon?
(Cui Cui looks at grandpa, as if remembering something. )
Cui: Well, it's almost ready, Grandpa.
(Grandpa asks tentatively)
Ye: Remember that fat duck that Tianbao gave you last Dragon Boat Festival? The two of us came back with torches.
(Cui Cui seems a little angry and answers eagerly)
Cui: No, no, nothing.
Grandpa: The year before last was more interesting. You wait for me by the river alone, and you will be sent back by the person who sent you to your second hometown after dark. I thought you were eaten by a big fish.
Cui: Grandpa! What are you talking about? If you hadn't forgotten that Cui Cui was waiting for you, I wouldn't have met that person. You have a good memory!
(Cui Cui airway, thinking about Nuo's shyness of some little girls)
Ye: Haha ~ Do you remember him? Haha ~
Grandpa smiled happily. Cui Cui heard Grandpa mention that this man was a little shy and bowed his head. )
Cui: You ignore you.
(Cui Cui said and turned around. Grandpa smiled again. At this point, send. )
No: Uncle, uncle.
(When three people meet, Cui Cui sees Nofa's face is redder and runs down. Grandpa whispers. )
Ye: this child ~
Grandpa turns to Northsong and greets him with a smile. )
Grandpa: It's parents!
Uncle, dad asked me to bring your wine gourd back to you.
Ye: OK, OK. Parents, come and sit here! I heard that you went to East Sichuan to handle the goods again a while ago? Not afraid of hard work?
No: There's nothing wrong with trying to eat!
Ye: Do you want to eat? Is the second hometown still short of food?
Promise: With food, my father said that young people should not stay at home for nothing!
Grandpa is very appreciative when he hears promise's answer. )
Ye: Good! Not the kui is the son of Shunshun family! My parents, my family Cui Cui, said that she had a dream one night in May.
(Grandpa looks at the delivery and goes on. )
Ye: Her dream is very strange. She said that she was floated by a person's song in her dream and picked a handful of Saxifraga from a hanging rock.
(Grandpa can't help laughing when he says this. Go on.)
Ye: I told your brother, and he didn't seem to believe it.
(Listen to grandpa, my brother's face changed slightly, a little cold. )
Noel: Really?
Grandpa: What, you don't believe it either?
No: Yes, why not? Because I was a fool, I sang on the opposite rock all night.
(Grandpa is surprised and turns happy. He didn't hear the self-mockery from promise. )
Ye: Hehe, I told you. How can the old man walk by car and by horse? This is against the rules. Since the matchmaker came to propose marriage, how can I sing a love song for Cui Cui for three years and six months?
No: All right, that's enough. Stop it!
Grandpa ignored promise's excitement, as if thinking of something.
Grandpa: Just why didn't you sing that song after only one night?
(I didn't answer in a complicated mood, and grandpa suddenly looked dignified)
Grandpa: Sir, I heard that the dowry of the daughter of the general manager of Wang Tuan is a new mill. I also heard that you don't want this mill, you want a ferry. This is what Yang told me. Is this-is this true?
(Grandpa anxiously looks at the courier, waiting for an answer)
What if it's true?
Grandpa: Grandpa, let me ask my Cui Cui. Will that song be sung again?
(Nuo looks complicated, and suddenly opens his mouth after a short silence)
No: My uncle thinks he can't live without Cui Cui, but for me, my brother can't live without him!
I am very sad and still blaming myself. Grandpa is very stupid. )
Grandpa: What do you mean, sir?
My brother is dead!
I was so excited that my grandfather was shocked.
Ye: Why? How is this possible, how is it possible ~
No: How is that possible? My brother got off the bus, but there was no reply. He thinks it's time to go for a walk. Later, he knew my mind, and we agreed to sing for Cui Cui on the rock together, one person for one day, and whoever touches Cui Cui will have it! My brother thinks he has the upper hand on the road. To be fair, he asked me to hit the road first and accompany me to rock and listen to my songs all night.
Ye: How did this happen, the old man?
Who knows that my brother found me the next day and said, "You are a bamboo sparrow, and you sing well. I can't compete with you! " "I followed the cargo ship to Chenzhou and drowned in a whirlpool on the way.
Grandpa shivered and his face was bitter. Send a sad but still come forward to help grandpa)
Ye: Alas, everything is fate, and man can do anything. Poor old Tianbao. He looked handsome, but he drowned in the water. Oh ~
I feel more sad and want to go. At this time, the voice-over transition, the ferry someone transition, Cui Cui answer out, grandpa staggered in the past to the ferry, want to avoid Nuo send good touch out. I was shocked when I saw Cui Cui, but some people didn't want to go. I looked at Cui Cui's clear shining eyes and blurted it out. )
No: Thank you, Cui Cui!
(Cui Cui asked puzzled)
Cui: What?
I gave an embarrassed smile, and some explanations were at a loss.
It's hard for you to watch this ferry every day.
Cui: I want to be with my grandfather. It's good. What do you want to do to my grandfather?
I send wine gourd to my uncle.
Cui: My grandfather must be trying to persuade me to drink again. This grandfather is always like this. Take me home after drinking at Dragon Boat Festival the year before last, and let me wait until dark. If it weren't for ...
Nopa laughed out loud when he saw how lightly he scolded Grandpa, as if he had forgotten the death of the old man. )
No: Ha ha, ha ha.
Cui: What are you laughing at?
No, it's nothing funny.
(Cui Cui is embarrassed by promise's gift and turns away on purpose. Suddenly she saw something and smiled brightly. )
Cui: Look! Saxifraga!
(Send it over and repeat it softly)
No: Saxifraga.
(Cui Cui turned and looked at. )
Cui: Do you think Saxifraga looks good?
(Send involuntary reply)
No: Beautiful.
Cui: I think it looks good, too. I picked it. I picked it in my dream. I also heard a beautiful song, which is better than grandpa's singing! Hehe ~ Have you ever dreamed of Saxifraga?
(Nopa's heart tightened, he turned away sadly and whispered)
I'm going back.
(Cui Cui smiles, confused)
Cui: Hello! Hey ~
(promise didn't look back, Cui Cui was a little angry and wronged, watching promise send away)
Cui: You are a man! Hum!
Then I couldn't help feeling sad and looking for things everywhere. )
Cui: Dog, dog, dog ~
(I made a few phone calls, but I didn't see the dog, so I squatted down and pulled the pebbles to shed tears. Grandpa came back with a lot on his mind and saw Cui Cui adjusting himself. )
Ye: You have to get everything you want. Don't be afraid!
(Say that finish, goes to Cui Cui)
Ye: When you grow up, you should remember. As a person, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to cry. If you want to survive in this land, you must be firm!
(Cui Cui looks at Grandpa and wipes her tears. )
Cui: Grandpa.
Ye: Good boy ~ Cui Cui is more and more like your mother. Long eyebrows, big eyes, red skin, cute and cute.
Cui: Really?
Grandpa didn't answer Cui Cui, as if lost in memory, and suddenly smiled. )
Ye: I also know how to look up and move my eyebrows in some small things. Smart and sensible, please the elders at home. It seems that I will never be separated from my family.
(Grandpa said, his expression is lonely. Cui Cui was sad to see her grandfather. She wanted to ask about her mother, but some were afraid to speak.
Cui: Grandpa, what's wrong with you?
(Grandpa returns to absolute being and looks at Cui Cui and asks)
Ye: What songs do you like grandpa singing?
Cui: Well, I like it!
Ye: Hey ~ Your mother likes singing, too. She often sings on the ferry. One day, she met a soldier. The soldier is an expert in singing. He can explain the sentences of love and hate with various metaphors. They were attracted by each other's singing. One cuts bamboo halfway up the mountain, the other pulls a boat at the river ferry and sings to each other ~
(Grandpa stops here, and Cui Cui is still immersed in his mother's story. Grandpa stopped talking and asked. )
Cui: Grandpa, what happened later?
Ye: Later?
Cui: What's the matter?
Ye: Of course, the following things are very long, hehe ~ but none of them are important. The most important thing is that this kind of singing sings you.
Cui: Sang me ~
(Cui Cui leans on grandpa, touching the small test tube, playing with it, thinking about something. )
Cui Cui: Grandpa, will you leave Cui Cui?
Grandpa didn't know how to answer, so he touched Cui Cui's head. Cui Cui saw grandpa didn't answer and asked again.
Cui: What will happen to Grandpa if Cui leaves you?
(Grandpa looks into Cui Cui's eyes)
Grandpa: You won't leave Grandpa!
Cui: What should Grandpa do if this happens?
Grandpa: In case of such a thing, I will take this ferry to find you.
Cui: What if we meet at Phoenix Beach and Sunny Beach? As you said, the water maniacs in those places are as unreasonable. Will you come to me again?
(Cui Cui asks, grandpa's tone is firm)
Ye: At that time, I will come to you like a madman. Are you still afraid of big waves? !
(Cui Cui's heart is warm, as if relieved)
Cui Cui: Where is Grandpa? Cui Cui is there. I will accompany grandpa!
(Cui Cui lowers his head and continues to play with small test tubes)
Ye: What are you thinking?
(Cui Cui holds up the small tube)
Cui: Grandpa, who was the first person to make this small tube?
Grandpa looks at the small test tube, turns his head and looks into the distance.
Ye: It must be done by a happy person, because he gives people a lot of happiness, but it seems to be done by the most unhappy person, because he can also cause people's unhappiness!
Cui: Grandpa, aren't you happy?
Ye: how come, I am very happy to have you around ~
