Warmovie "will leave the grass" movie review Afterthoughts Explanatory text
The night before the wedding
A woman pulls another man into a rendezvous in the bush
The next day, the man is tied up and forced to be the groom
But the real groom leaves quietly
The men of the Guan family have always been unsure of their lives and the women are mostly widows.
In the town, there are always gossip
Qiu Ye married into the Guan family as a daughter-in-law at the age of 17
Her husband, Dasan, treated her with affection and affection, and the couple played in harmony.
The simple life of a man farming and a woman weaving was a comfortable one
I thought the years were quiet, but the country was in trouble.
At the critical period of the Sino-Japanese War
With the ambition of not returning to Sichuan until the lost land is recovered
Dasan joined the army with the young men of Kurama town.
Master Guan held a grand drumming ceremony for the soldiers.
As long as the soldiers did not return, the great music of Kurama would not be played.
The 100,000-strong Sichuan army left for the war
Qiu Ye stood on the other side of the mountain and waved goodbye.
She was expecting her husband with the child of Dasan
Since then, Qiu Ye has been with her widowed mother-in-law, Xiaohua, her sister-in-law
Dasan's childhood mute, Tusheng
and her great-uncle, Master Guan, living in the old mansion left by their ancestors
Year after year, the peony flowers bloomed all over the mountain
His son Tiger has grown up
I have been waiting for Dasan for a long time, but he has not returned yet.
Finally, when the day of the war was fully won, the era of peace came
The whole town came to life at once
100,000 Sichuan soldiers went to Sichuan to fight against the war
The only one who came back alive was Ah Long.
He escaped the river of blood on the battlefield
He stumbled back home and knelt before his master, Master Guan
Holding Dasan's clothes in his hands
The news of Dasan's death was confirmed to everyone
Qiu Ye did not believe in the death of Dasan
Still standing on the mountain every day to look at it from afar
Xiaohua and Tusheng also looked at their hearts and could not bear it
Tusheng was the only young man in the family
He was adopted by Dasan as a child and they were like brothers
For many years, they quietly helped with the household chores
Although Ah Long had recovered his life
But he kept himself at home for many days and refused to go out
With the encouragement of Master Guan
Ah Long came out of his room and pounded on the drums
The deafening sound of the drums
is the good news that the soldiers sacrificed themselves to keep the people safe
With the death of Dasan, the inheritance of Kurama Dale was left to Ah Long.
That day, Xiaoding came in a hurry
said that the town returned a group of soldiers
When Qiu Ye heard this, she happily ran to look for Dasan's shadow
She met Ah Long on the road and they did not say a word
Her best friend Sufen's husband Wang Ermao had broken an arm
When she saw Qiu Ye, she shook her head a lot and did not know the whereabouts of Dasan
She wanted to comfort Sufen but she didn't know where to start
Two women married on the same day in Kurama town
but each had a different experience
Qiu Ye walks alone on the road
She no longer hopes to accept the fact that Dasan has been killed in action.
Master Guan ordered to pick a good day to bury Dasan
So that the living can get over their grief and continue to live
It was the time of the year when the peony blossoms were in full bloom.
According to custom
The family built a tomb for Dasan and buried him.
Akiha secretly ran to pray for Dasan
After that she had to start a new life
She did not want to leave and chose to stay in the family
Dasan was gone, and Tusheng and Ah Long were still there.
Day by day the family gets along better and better
Qiu Ye slowly got a smile on her face
One day, Ah Long was driving a pile in the yard
Akiha looked at this scene as if she had seen Dasan's face
Qiu Ye is a famous beauty in town
The Guan family had been making noodles for generations, and people called Qiu Ye the noodle maiden
Long has also long been in love with Qiu Ye
Xiaohua looked at Ah Long has been blossoming
First love is both simple and shy she fell in love with Ah Long
The mother always wanted to find a husband for Xiaohua
But Master Guan couldn't bear to do so, and secretly put off many people who came to say goodbye
He wants Xiaohua to be happy
Next year, she can go to a girls' school in the county to receive an education
Instead of staying at home for the rest of her life
Master Guan approved of the freedom of marriage
He wanted Xiaohua to marry the man she loved.
Mother thought about it
Since she couldn't let her daughter go, she wanted to recruit a son-in-law to her home
That night, my mother-in-law spoke with Master Guan
She had already seen Xiaohua's feelings for Ah Long
So she wanted Qiu Ye to marry Tusheng
Let Ah Long marry Xiaohua as his son-in-law
So that the family would never be separated and live together
These words were overheard by Xiaohua who was passing by
She was already overjoyed
But Master Guan felt that it was not that simple
Xiaohua ran to her sister-in-law's house and told Qiu Ye about this
After hearing this, Qiu Ye just silently put Tiger to sleep without saying a word
Ah Long's love for Qiu Ye became more and more obvious
Even in the night, he talked about Qiu Ye's name in his sleep
He was teased by Ding who was in the same room
Ding told Ah Long that if he didn't hold on to Qiu Ye, he would have to marry Tusheng
But Long is confident that Akiha will never fall in love with the mute Tusheng
Although Tusheng was mute, he was also in love with Akiha
He often looks at the door of Qiu Ye's room when it's late at night
Thinking of Akiha's soft, watery eyes and giggling
Akiha is caught in a dilemma
Her best friend, Su Fan, saw that both of them were fine
Qiu Ye is encouraged to follow her heart's true will
Yun Xian is a gentle and generous singer
Only the years have left some traces on her body
Master Guan has never married
But every year he would invite Yun Xian to sing in the town
Although they had feelings for each other, they could not be together
It is also a lifelong regret, right?
Whenever Yunxian sang
People from all the nearby villages came to see her.
When the farming season is busy, even the town's farming work has people rush to do
Ah Long and Hu Er get along very well and interact lovingly
Qiu Ye looked at the two felt like home for the first time
But the town is full of gossip
are discussing the three behind the scenes
From time to time, they always talk about Akiha's faults
A Long likes Qiu Ye happened to be passing by Xiaohua heard about it
Xiaohua went back and urged her mother to make things work between Qiu Ye and Tusheng
Yun Xian lived in Master Guan's house
She was a miserable woman whose son was lost and could not be found
For many years, Yunxian loved Tusheng the most
How she wished her son
She wished that her son would meet a good family like Tusheng
Tusheng slowly came to think of Yun Xian as his family
Yun Xian is singing on stage
Offstage, Qiu Ye and Ah Long's unconscious glances
revealing their feelings for each other
Before the play was over, it started to rain
Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, everyone hurried back to take shelter from the rain
Ah Long took off his clothes and put them on Qiu Ye's head
This scene was seen by Xiaohua
But Qiu Ye took the initiative to avoid Ah Long and chose to go home with Xiao Hua
Yun Xian, who was following closely behind, saw all this
Tell Ah Long
One of them is destined to be hurt
Things in this world
It's hard to have the best of both worlds
Xiaohua went home and got herself drunk to find Tusheng
She cried and begged him to marry Qiu Ye
And leave Ah Long to himself
Granny rushed over
And all this was heard by Qiu Ye in the next room
Qiu Ye knew how Xiao Hua felt about Ah Long
And she couldn't stop herself from caring for him.
Tusheng knelt down in front of her mother-in-law
He begged her to marry him
Granny was heartbroken
She had grown up with her own children and they were both flesh on the back of her hand
That day, when Akiha was boiling water in the kitchen
She accidentally dropped her hairpin into the barrel
Tu Sheng saw it and without saying a word, he reached into the boiling water
She fished out the hairpin
She called everyone to help her
Anxious to apply medicine to Tusheng
Seeing the deep love of Tu Sheng for Qiu Ye
Grandma decided to match Tusheng and Akiha
A secret was planted in the hearts of all four of them
The four of them become cautious in their relationship
The subtle emotional changes among them are becoming more and more obvious
Even getting along becomes uncomfortable
Tossing and turning and unable to sleep, Ah Long quietly got up and went to the courtyard
He saw Qiu Ye who was still in the kitchen making noodles
That a glimpse of a woman tantalized Ah Long's heart
The noodle maiden really lives up to her name
Ah Long also went to make noodles although not a word
But the ambiguous atmosphere almost broke through the screen
Ah Long confessed to Qiu Ye that he wanted her to marry him
When they were about to do something
But outside the singing Yun Xian disturbed the good thing
The two of them leave each other without a word of warning
Although busy every day hanging noodles
But between the eyes but full of love
Some were happy and some were sad
But the mute Tusheng was in a very low mood
At Ding's suggestion, Tusheng began to learn to play the suona
Because he could not speak
He has too many sorrows that he cannot express properly
It is not good for his health to hold it in for a long time
He can only use the instrument to express his feelings
Xiaohua specially found Qiu Ye to teach her how to knit a sweater
She wanted to knit a sweater for Ah Long
Qiu Ye seemed to be generous in teaching her
But behind her back, she silently dispersed
The red sweater she knitted for Ah Long was almost finished
A line of tears slipped down from the corner of her eyes, whether it was love, resentment or love
Qiu Ye wanted to talk to her friend Su Fen
But she ran into Mr. Wang, a famous and rich family in town
Mr. Wang has been interested in Qiu Ye for a long time and insists on taking her as his concubine.
No matter how much Su Fan tried to stop her, it was useless
When she saw this, she became angry and pressed Mr. Wang to death
Seeing that he was alone, Mr. Wang had to leave in a hurry
The next day, he brought the bride price to Master Guan to propose marriage.
Master Guan didn't think much of Mr. Wang
He wouldn't let his daughter-in-law be a concubine to someone else.
He sent Mr. Wang away with a vengeance.
After the war, he thought he could live a peaceful life
However, the family became even more unsettled
Tusheng grew up in the family.
Ah Long was seven years old when he ran the docks with Master Guan
The heart and hands are all flesh
These four people are entangled in a relationship but do not know what to do
Master Guan and his mother-in-law drove away Mr. Wang who proposed to Qiu Ye
They are also busy chasing away the family who proposed to Xiaohua
Looking at the elders who are talking in the house from afar
Xiaohua's heart jumped when she stood outside to dry the noodles
Nervous, he fell off the chair
Ah Long picked up Xiao Hua and took him to the doctor
The frightened Xiaohua shouted Ah Long's name
Looking at the scene in front of him
Qiu Ye had to turn away despondently and take the initiative to make the two of them whole
Tusheng also took the opportunity to hug Hu'er and the crying Qiu Ye to gain favor
Ah long has been busy taking care of Xiaohua
Tusheng and Ah Long are no longer as close as they used to be
There are problems and barriers to meet, but also just no words
Ah Long knows that he has hurt Xiao Hua and Qiu Ye, two good women
He could neither get Qiu Ye nor face Xiao Hua
There was a business opportunity in town
So he packed his bags and left
Ah Long left the family to Tusheng to look after
Tusheng could not speak
He could only use the suona to play a farewell to Ah Long
Tiger likes Ah Long
Qiu Ye lied to him and said that when the peony flowers bloomed, Ah Long would return
Since then, Tiger has gone up the mountain every day to see the peony blossoms
He waited for Ah Long to return just as he had waited for Dasan to return
A year later the peony finally blossomed but no Dragon came back
Tiger was so sad
She ran away from home and hid in a cave, sad and sad
Anxiously, Qiu Ye and Tusheng searched all over the mountain
By the time they found Tiger, he was already seriously ill.
He had a fever that wouldn't go away and even the clinic couldn't do anything about it
Tusheng carried Tiger to the county town 10 miles away to seek medical help
He was barely able to keep Tiger from burning up into tuberculosis
At the bedside, Tusheng was so exhausted that he collapsed.
He was lying on a chair, exhausted
Qiu Ye's heart was filled with gratitude
Tusheng carried the burden of life for her in Ah Long's absence
Akiha gently wiped the dark water from his forehead
At this moment, Akiha decided to marry Tusheng
In Akiha's dream
Dasan Ah Long and Tusheng's figures overlapped again and again
Even Akiha couldn't tell who the person she missed in her dream was.
Akiha was relieved to have made her decision
Tousen's face was full of smiles
It was the day of their wedding photo shoot
They were dressed in big red flowered blouses.
The two of them smiling shyly made a perfect match
However, this scene was seen by Mr. Wang who was passing by
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became
He did not know that Qiu Ye refused to marry a mute only for himself
He said he wanted to take Qiu Ye away
Tusheng and Mr. Wang fought in the tug-of-war
It's really fate
At the critical moment, Ah Long appeared
Helped to drive away the gang of people
I don't know whether it was early or late when Ah Long came back
He hadn't seen Qiu Ye for a long time.
But he came back just before the wedding
He wanted to take Akiha and run away with Tiger
Qiu Ye refused
Neither wanted to hurt Xiaohua
Nor did he want to let the Guan family become broken
Yun Xian stayed here all this time and didn't leave
She wanted to see Tusheng get married before she would leave
Yunxian knew that Tusheng was in love with Qiu Ye
Yun Xian also knows that Ah Long's return
Maybe it will affect the marriage
The more she thought about it, the more she was distressed that it was fate whether the marriage would be consummated or not
As the old saying goes
Everything is fate and nothing is left to chance
It is God's will that the marriage will be consummated
It's also God's will if it doesn't work out
Xiaohua doesn't want to go to school in the county anymore.
She wanted to make Ah Long her son-in-law after Qiu Ye's marriage
But everything is fate
The civil war broke out in 1946.
Conscription notices were posted all over town
The town was filled with public discontent
The peaceful days that had just calmed down broke out into war again
The draft was not small in scale.
All families with five daughters drew three, three, two, two.
Ah Long's name was also listed in the list of conscripts
Scared, Ah Long rushed back to the cellar
He was afraid to face the war for the second time
He was lucky to survive the last time, but no one is lucky every time
But military orders are like mountains and anyone who disobeys them is punished by military justice
Ah Long knelt in front of his master
The Guan family has been blessed with a lot of bad luck.
One son was getting married and the other had to go to war
Xiaohua cried tears and Ah Long held her tightly in his arms
Parting is always so sad
On the advice of her mother-in-law, Qiu Ye toasted Ah Long's wedding in advance
Ah Long once again entrusted the Guan family to Tusheng's hands
After drinking this wedding wine, he and Qiu Ye will never be together again
Ah Long left alone and walked in the dark bushland
I heard Qiu Ye whispering Ah Long's name in the dark
In the darkness of the night
Qiu Ye wanted to give him a son to carry on his legacy
In the future, even if he dies, there will be one more son of Lung in the world
Ah Long's trip was a bad one
After the farewell to Ah Long, Qiu Ye was alone in the night, sad
And just a short distance away, Ah Long was kidnapped
Until the next day, everyone was planning the wedding of Tsuchio and Akiha.
Tousen, who usually wakes up early, slept in today.
Grandma had to send someone to call him from the house
But the door was locked.
A man was tied up inside, stammering and unable to speak
Master Guan saw this and cut the lock with an axe
The man in the room wearing the groom's clothes was not Tusheng but Ah Long
The crowd followed with a face of doubt
Maybe it was fate that this marriage would not work
The one who kidnapped Ah Long was Tusheng
After he was kidnapped at home
After he was kidnapped from his home, he joined the army early in the morning under the name of Ryu.
He didn't know that Akiha had always wanted Ryu in her heart
He chose to fulfill them at the moment of marriage
However, Aryu did not marry Akiha either
He broke free from the rope and ran through the town to catch up with the group leaving from the army.
Tiger inherited the incense of Kurama Dale
Standing alone on the hill, he beat the drums for the soldiers on the march
He said goodbye to Tusheng with tears on his face
Someone in the group recognized that Tusheng was not Ah Long.
Luckily, Tusheng was able to stop him in time and did not expose him
Ah Long kept chasing the group
He hoped to exchange himself for Tusheng
Akiha was once again standing on the hill
Waiting for the return of Ah Long and Tusheng
Even she did not know who she was waiting for
She imagined herself standing in the field of peony blossoms
The three brothers, Dasan, Ah Long and Tusheng, came to her
They all came to her alive and healthy, smiling
Now it doesn't matter who Akiha is waiting for
The end of the film leaves us with a great suspense
It doesn't matter whether it will be Tusheng or Ah Long who comes back
Or maybe neither of them will come back
But we hope more than anything that both Ah Long and Tusheng will return
Life is full of partings
What makes us feel regretful and sad the most
Is that we always do not have the opportunity to say goodbye
So people look forward to reunions and live in endless waiting
Paeonia lactiflora is also known as the grass that will leave us
Its symbolic meaning is both longing and farewell
Autumn leaves are always in the peony flowers to send off their lovers again and again
And miss them for life
The film uses a narrative approach
depicts the moving story of a small town during the war
In the story, family, friendship and love go back and forth
Their desire for life and sacrifice for love can't help but wet the corners of their eyes
(End)
