I learned from the file that
my father is Chinese,
and my mother was Russian.
He was a teacher in the Foreign Languages Department of Tangshan University.
They both died in the earthquake in nineteen seventy-six.
and all my other relatives died in the earthquake.
I was just over three years old.
I had no relatives.
and I made the orphanage my home.
I grew up there.
Goodbye, director.
Go.
Let's go.
Remember,
the botanical garden of Kunming Medical University.
there is a professor Chen.
He is a master in planting Chinese herbal medicine.
Cherish this good opportunity for the internship.
Although a month and a half is not long,
but you can still learn a lot.
After you finish,
we need you here.
Hello.
Sir, could you please find Professor Chen?
You are talking to him.
What's the matter?
Hello.
I'm Li Ming.
internship.
I need your Chinese herbal medicine.
Excuse me, classmate.
Do you know what time it is?
It's already past twenty-one past eight.
Why would you disturb a professor at this time?
Dad, why are you waiting for me?
First, soak the seeds.
and then carefully remove the weeds later.
Professor Chen,
You are Li Ming who comes for internship.
It seems that you have a problem with time concept.
Yesterday, you boldly broke a rule.
You called at twenty-one past eight last night.
and you were an hour late this morning.
Look, we have already taken an early break.
Remember,
Never disturb a professor after twenty-one o'clock at night.
Is that a bird?
Professor Chen,
This is my little gift.
Is it necessary?
Long live Chairman Mao.
Ha ha.
I heard from the bird seller
he can draw many things.
but they were all painted during the Cultural Revolution.
What's your name?
Okay.
Let him stay first.
It's only a month and a half.
Why do we need a special room?
Li Ming, come.
I want him to live happily for a month.
Long live Chairman Mao.
Its Latin name is Polygonum multiflorum.
In Chinese, we call it Polygonum multiflorum.
Chinese medicine uses it to treat kidney and liver diseases.
According to the oldest medical books,
our ancestors used its decoction
to treat men's nocturnal emissions.
Today, we also use it to relieve constipation for patients.
Its root has a bitter and sweet taste.
Once you taste it, you will never forget it.
I want you future doctors
try it yourselves.
Li, come here.
What's wrong?
Tell everyone.
what I asked you to get.
Polygonum multiflorum.
That's right.
But what did you bring?
Aconite.
This is not Polygonum multiflorum,
It's aconite, which is poisonous.
It can kill people, you know?
Why didn't you open your eyes and see?
thanks to my high vigilance.
I took a look,
otherwise everyone here would die at your hands.
What a great opportunity in your life!
to come to this best botanical garden for an internship.
Many people can't even come here if they want to.
Who sent you here?
He's really blind.
I'm sorry.
Actually, I'm in the same boat as you.
I'm also half an orphan.
My mother passed away when I was ten.
Don't leave.
My father.
That person has a cold and rigid temper.
He's not targeting you alone.
But he has a kind heart.
You'll know over time.
I have tried to adapt to him for over twenty years.
I can't tolerate him all the time.
Dad, your breakfast.
Dad.
Breakfast.
My breakfast is always at half past seven.
not eight o'clock.
I have different things to do at different times.
You know that.
Take it away.
I won't eat it today.
Hmm.
This is Cicada tree.
It belongs to the family of Jian Du.
Li,
The arrow is the arrow for archery.
In the past,
people would soak its fruits in water for a few days.
and filter the juice through gauze.
and then steam it over a low heat to make poison.
Nowadays,
people generally use it for local anesthesia.
Li,
Professor Chen, you know too much.
The rosin used is different.
It needs to be picked constantly
until it becomes white.
It treats skin abscesses and eye swelling.
It works very well.
It disappears in a day.
Please add some water for me.
You need ginseng as a specimen again.
Hello, Master Wang.
Long time no see.
When did you arrive?
Just arrived.
You brought a helper to collect herbs.
His name is Li Ming.
He's interning with us.
Ginseng is hard to pick this year.
OK.
Wait a minute.
Okay, you don't have to be afraid now.
Once the snake smells the yellow ore pigment,
it will immediately be paralyzed.
Li Ming, come and see the wild white tree.
and there are two more.
Be careful.
Do you know?
Before going out, thieves in the south
they would find a root of this plant
and tie it around their waist.
If they were caught,
or being beaten and bitten,
the wound would heal very quickly.
Later, Zhao Kuangyin was saved by it.
After he became the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty,
he gave it a great name.
called Zijinbian.
Do you know?
My father has a heart disease.
and sometimes he has angina pectoris.
Later, he got an ancient recipe
which used the wisteria on the mountain to treat his heart disease.
Let me tell you,
Don't think the wisteria on the mountain
looks the same as the one under the mountain,
but its weight is doubled.
Come.
Look.
Its juice is snow-white.
Has his heart disease been cured?
Well, it can only be said that it's well controlled.
Ginseng is like us humans,
it has a soul.
You must tie it up first,
otherwise, when you dig,
its soul will run away.
Ah.
It's so interesting to be with you.
Professor Chen, your tea is ready.
The tea for tonight
five grams less than in the morning.
You haven't forgotten, have you?
No.
Wait.
Yes.
An An must have told you to use rainwater to make tea.
right?
Yes.
Then why didn't you use rainwater?
Isn't the rainwater here full?
I.
You thought I wouldn't notice.
Let me tell you.
I can even tell which season the fish is from.
I sprained my ankle just now.
There are many stones there.
Be careful.
My dad likes the mud in this pond the most.
So I have to come here several times a year.
Today's duck feet are neither too soft nor too hard.
The heat is just right.
I can feel the speed of it melting in my mouth.
Try it.
Thank you, Professor Chen, I don't eat.
No way, it's so delicious.
I think.
duck feet are the best food in the world.
Why don't you eat it?
Well, I'm not very hungry today.
You two are a little strange today.
Ah ah ah ah ah.
Brother, you got the wrong person.
I'm here.
I'm sorry.
Come on, rock, paper, scissors.
Scissors, rock, paper.
Rock, paper, scissors.
Scissors, rock, paper.
You still lose to me.
Dandan.
Dad is here.
Dad.
You're still a kid.
Surprise attack.
Hey, by the way,
Let me introduce you.
His name is Li Ming.
who is here for an internship.
Hello, Li Ming.
Hello.
Did I hurt you just now?
I'm his brother.
I'm Dandan.
You came back just in time.
So our whole family and Li can
we can go out and play together.
Look what they are doing.
Fellow villagers are celebrating a happy event.
It's time to think about it.
You're not young anymore.
You're twenty-six, I was married at your age.
What do you think of her?
What do you think?
Ha ha ha.
You haven't found a partner yet, right?
What a coincidence!
I have the same problem as you.
I think they are a good match.
You are Li Ming's friend.
You should help your
and help him settle his life-long affair.
Let's get it done quickly.
This boatman doesn't have much strength.
I'm not bragging.
I'm definitely faster than him.
Do you believe?
I've practiced before.
and I won the third place in the army's training competition.
Hey,
Look at my biceps.
Press it.
You press it.
It's okay, you can press it.
I know you won't lie.
How do you know Li Ming will like my brother?
Also,
How do you know my brother wants to get married now?
I have talked to your brother about this.
He didn't object to my proposal.
An'an, do you remember?
you liked this game the most when you were a kid.
You called it the Botanical Garden Open-Air Cinema.
Come here and watch.
Ah.
Come here.
Come and sit with me.
You always hang out with them.
How can they build a relationship?
Ah.
You're still a tigress.
Wake up so early.
Ah.
While they're still asleep,
How about you be my love consultant?
I wrote a letter to Li Ming
and I want to ask for your advice.
Ah ah.
Please help me, look.
You are the closest friend of him,
almost wearing the same pair of pants.
Let me read it to you.
Dear Ming,
Although we have known each other for a short time,
I firmly ask you to allow me to call you that.
Dear.
How about it?
It's cheesy.
Listen.
Let's get to the point.
Dearest Ming.
I feel like we have known each other for a long time.
Maybe I feel the same way as you.
A soldier doesn't like to waste time.
Brother,
Stop reading.
Let's get straight to the point.
and straightforward.
My life
and my career need a woman like you.
Let's get married.
Don't you know how embarrassing it is?
Don't interrupt, I still have plans for the future.
I don't want to listen.
I don't like to hear these messy things.
You're so poor.
Where are you going?
An'an.
I'm starving.
I haven't eaten anything for two days.
You've been on a hunger strike for two days.
Isn't it amazing?
I can tell you're crying.
It's okay.
It's sunny after you came.
You've changed your mind.
I'm afraid.
except you.
I will never love anyone else.
What are these pigeons for?
You ask me.
These pigeons are prepared for pilgrims in the temple.
They make a wish and buy pigeons to release.
And what kind of wish do they make?
The number of pigeons is different.
Wish.
If two people love each other for a lifetime,
how many do they need?
Sixty-four.
What if two people never part in their lifetime?
One hundred and eight is the most auspicious number.
The Great Compendium of Buddhist Sūtras has this number.
Your brother proposed to me,
I refused.
If you really marry my brother,
then we will never be apart.
Just like our wish.
Marry him.
My brother is just a small soldier.
He is not an officer.
According to the regulations, he can't take his family to Tibet.
As his wife,
you can only stay at Kunlin's home.
with me and my father.
Ha ha ha.
Ah ha ha.
Ha ha ha, our wish will come true.
Never apart.
Yes.
Ha ha ha.
How much glutinous rice do you prepare for red cake?
Fifty catties.
Add another twenty catties.
Son's wedding is a lifetime event.
You, you, you, you.
You move this towards the middle a little bit.
It's better this way.
Mr. Shen, congratulations.
Thanks to everyone.
The young couple will have a baby soon.
Eight quilts have been placed on this bed.
Eight is a lucky number.
It will bring you good luck.
Who among you has the most children?
I have three sons and two daughters.
Good good good.
Xiao Jia.
Thank you.
Ah.
Have you seen my new tie?
Damn it.
Tomorrow is the wedding.
Why can't I find it?
Dad, your tea.
An'an, come back.
Dad, you don't feel well.
What's going on?
You didn't even put a tea leaf in it.
What's wrong with you?
You were crying there this afternoon.
I'm waiting for you.
I knew you would come.
Come on, my virginity belongs to you.
It's not Dandan's.
Mine belongs to you too.
I'm honored to invite my comrades
and my father's old friend
and the orphanage director of Li Ming.
to attend our wedding.
Let's toast to the happiness of my beautiful bride.
Cheers.
He can't drink, I'll drink for him.
Hey,
I think
if their mothers
could see this happy moment of her son.
Li Ming, you are the bride.
You should share the red cakes with everyone.
Li Ming, give more red cakes to my comrades.
Everyone,
Everyone.
For the happiness of the bride and groom,
I'll sing a song for everyone today.

The breeze moves me.

Why aren't you a virgin anymore?
Who did it to you?
Say it or not.
Say.
Say it.
Say.
Say it or not?
Ah?
Say or not?
I'll make you stubborn.
You won't say it, right?
Sir, the meal you ordered.
If you don't say it today,
I'll starve you to death.
Help!
Are you comfortable?
Hey.
This is the best sandalwood.
Breathe well.
And you guys,
do you know?
Li Shizhen served you like this back then.
It's terrifying.
He's back.
Did you see his injury?
He's back, but where's his testicle?
My brother went back to Tibet.
Ah.
Did you see his injury?
Yes.
Did you see what he did to Li Ming?
No matter what happened,
he is still my son.
Are there no duck feet sold in the market recently?
Yes, what's wrong?
I haven't eaten it for several weeks.
We should get some for everyone to eat.
Li Ming doesn't like them.
I hate duck feet the most.
I told you.
Sir, you want steamed duck feet.
Well, thank you.
An'an.
Ah?
Dad.
Why did you take so long?
Where's the newspaper?
Sorry, we forgot.
We forgot the milk yesterday.
and forgot the newspaper today.
What are you thinking about?
This family is a mess.
Maybe one day we will leave together.
and fly away.
and go to a far place.
It's impossible.
If I leave, father,
his life will be in trouble.
You can't leave your father.
I can't leave this botanical garden.
This morning, I received a letter from Dandan.
After he returned to the army,
You haven't written to him, have you?
It's been two months.
I don't have time.
Can't you see any problem between you two?
He told me in the letter
You're not pregnant yet.
you're not pregnant yet.
He can't come back for a while.
I think you can visit him in the army.
or find a house near his army's station.
You two can be together.
Hey.
One day,
I came to visit you.
You were sleeping.
You were sleeping soundly.
There was a strange smell.
Before you came,
I was lonely.
I was terribly lonely.
After you came,
I never felt lonely again.
This is my original idea.
These plants can cause hallucinations.
which can cause hallucinations.
Close your eyes.
take a deep breath.
People say the first time is the best and most amazing.
I feel dizzy.
If you want to forget someone or something,
just repeat his name twenty-eight times.
Earthquake.
You cried, I heard it. What did you hear?
My foreign name.
I was called this name before I was three.
Yes.
My mom used to call me that.
Hey.
Earthquake.
I heard it.
I saw my mom.
Her eyes were also gray.
Yes.
That was the first time I saw him.
What is he doing?
I don't know.
Her hair was cut very short.
From today on,
I'll comb my mom's hairstyle.
Ah ah.
What happened to dad?
What happened?
You know.
These special peonies are most afraid of rain.
Why not cover them up?
Look at this poor look.
Is there any hope?
What have you been busy with these days?
Where is your heart?
I'm sorry, dad.
I forgot.
Everyone makes mistakes.
Why do you have to make such a big fuss?
You talk to me like that.
Work is work.
It must be meticulous.
There's no need to forgive or not.
It's not you who has the final say here.
It's just a few peonies, why bother?
It's none of your business here.
I'm talking to my daughter.
Talking to my daughter.
I thought you were training your servant.
Shut up.
You're a scourge.
You're a troublemaker and a sower of discord.
My eyes are sharp.
I have seen your every move.
and keep it in my heart.
I regret that I took you in.
I know you're here today.
we won't be at peace.
You go away.
Go!
If he leaves,
I'll go too.
You've changed so much.
I can't even recognize my own daughter.
Hey, why isn't your daughter here?
Why did you come by yourself today?
From now on,
I will only read the newspapers I buy myself.
Dad, your wine.
Ah, ah.
Pour me a glass of water, I need to take medicine.
Ah.
Monster.
You are a demon.
Long live Chairman Mao.
Dad,
I'll go and tell him.
we want to leave this
botanical garden.
We will never come back.
Never come back.
Dad.
Now, as the presiding judge of the court,
read out the statement that Professor Chen
on the hospital bed
to the public security officers.
I am a prosecutor.
I would like to ask you a question.
Why did this case
has caused such a great shock in society,
people are so angry,
and the government departments attach so much importance.
Because,
Professor Chen's testimony before his death told us that
it wasn't coronary heart disease that killed him,
but another more terrifying disease.
His daughter and daughter-in-law suffered from the same disease.
The name of the disease is homosexuality.
The occurrence of an abnormal same-sex love
led to the death of a famous botanist in our country.
Chen An and Li Ming are guilty.
It is unacceptable by law, morality, and human nature.
and society.
They must be severely punished.
Dean,
Thank you.
Throughout the trial,
I only listened to your testimony.
You affirmed my performance in the orphanage.
To be honest, this is the first time in my life
the first time I heard someone say good things about me.
The testimony of others in court
the trial was zero for me.
Only one person can judge me.
is Chen An'an.
or our love.
Director,
I can't come back to develop Chinese herbal medicine.
Since I have no relatives,
I grew up in an orphanage.
so I would like to ask you two things.
First,
please pay the state the cost of my death penalty bullets.
about seven point eight yuan.
The second thing
is to ask you to go to the release platform in Gaoshan Temple,
and put my and An'an's ashes together,
and sprinkle them into the lake.
In this way,
we can die in peace.
