This episode may seem ordinary, but it is happening in thousands of households across the country.
What the son tastes is the taste of his mother that he has not seen for a long time. As for the mother, she is satisfied when her son can come back and eat the dishes she cooked.
The most plain and simple ones are often the ones that touch people’s hearts the most.
The camera changed again, this time to a foreign country, San Francisco and Chinatown.
The streets were filled with red lanterns, and firecrackers sounded from time to time to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, which was full of festive atmosphere.
Upstairs, the old man looked out the window at the street scene with a smile on his face.
The old man was sitting on the sofa looking at old photos.
I called my children and granddaughter and made an appointment to have New Year’s Eve dinner together in the evening.
Only, this time the old man spoke English!
The old man came to his parents' memorial tablets, offered incense to his parents, and placed a bowl on the table: "Dad, Mom, it's Chinese New Year, and I wish you a happy New Year!"
The subtitles slowly emerged: "Miss you!"
Even a wanderer overseas, although he speaks a foreign language and is in a foreign country, he cannot forget his roots and place two bowls in front of his parents' memorial tablets.
The camera returns to China, "Bashu Xuanhan!"
It’s the New Year, and the sons and daughters who are busy outside bring their children back to reunite for the New Year.
Every household hangs up brand new bright red lanterns and irons new Spring Festival couplets to welcome the arrival of the New Year, but not everyone is beaming during the New Year.
An old man stood at the door holding a dry tobacco pole, looking at the lively neighbor's family. When they passed by, they would always say hello to him and send a greeting: "Uncle Wang, happy New Year!"
But although he responded with a smile on his face, in the camera, there were still no new lanterns or new Spring Festival couplets posted at the door of his home.
Seeing the neighbor's family lively and harmonious, his eyes were full of envy.
But he could only turn around alone.
The neighbor turned around and saw Lao Wang alone, and quickly stopped him with a smile: "Hey, Lao Wang!"
Then he stepped forward and took Lao Wang's hand: "Let's go, let's go to my house for dinner!"
Uncle Wang stretched out his hand and pointed at his house with his cigarette rod: "I'm cooking at home!"
But the neighbor didn't take it seriously and insisted on taking Lao Wang to his house for dinner: "Oh, we're celebrating the New Year, let's go, let's go!"
Lao Wang explained: "Really, I am cooking rice!"
But the neighbor didn't care and said: "I know, just do it. If you have more people, you will have more pairs of fast children. Let's go!"
After saying that, he pulled Lao Wang into the house: "You're welcome!"
The house was bustling. When the neighbor’s grandma saw her husband dragging Lao Wang over, she greeted him enthusiastically: "Lao Wang! Why are you so polite? What a pair of fast boys!"
Lao Wang sat at the neighbor's dining table, and the neighbor gave him a bowl of rice.
"We are happy to celebrate the New Year today!"
Everyone read and said: "Happy, happy!"
But Lao Wang couldn't help but wipe his tears with his hands.
The subtitles slowly emerged: "Good Neighbor!"
This scene may have been remembered by many people when they were young. All distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. At that time, neighbors were really just like relatives.
If you have more than one person, you will have a pair of fast children. It can be said that this sentence will sound familiar to anyone's ears.
Especially for people of the older generation like Fu Guangnan, when the sentence: "If there are many people, there will be a pair of fast children", they can't help but get red in the eyes for no reason.
Seeing Lao Wang wiping his tears, no one could remain indifferent.
The camera once again took them to "Jinan Licheng!"
In the small house, the pregnant wife started cooking and cooking.
On the road, my husband was riding a bicycle to deliver express delivery, and he was busy with this small family until the evening of New Year's Eve!
The wife finished cooking, took out the bowl, and sat at the dinner table waiting for her husband to come back to eat.
The husband stopped the car and walked into the house.
The wife turned around and said, "The dishes are ready!"
The husband apologized: "There are so many things today!"
Sitting at the dinner table, the husband took out a special gift and handed it to his wife.
The wife took it and saw that it was a pair of little ones.
She couldn't help laughing happily, reached out and touched her husband's head and said with a smile, "Fool."
The husband reached out and gently stroked his wife's swollen belly and said, "In two months, I will be a father!"
The two smiled sweetly at each other and held each other's hands tightly.
Suddenly the happiness of the young couple almost overflowed the screen.
Let everyone be wrapped in a light called happiness.
The subtitles appeared again: "Stay together!"
In China, adding a pair of tachyons is equivalent to adding one more person to the family. That is a tachyon for the baby!
Finally, the camera returned to the capital.
Grandma took out the new tachyons she had prepared and arranged them one by one. During the New Year, the whole family was busy and happily picked up the tachyons and ate the New Year's Eve dinner together around the fire.
Grandma put a chicken wing in her grandson's bowl: "Spread your wings and fly high!"
The little grandson put a piece of fish into grandma's bowl and said, "There will be more than enough every year!"
Grandma put another piece of vegetables into her grandson's bowl: "A good harvest!"
The little grandson cleverly gave his grandma a piece of noodles and said, "Long life!"
"good!"
The whole family couldn't help but cheer.
Grandma hugged her little grandson, her wrinkled face overflowing with happiness.
The subtitles appeared again: "Thank you!"
The picture turned around again, and the previous scenes appeared again.
"A pair of tachyons, carrying thousands of years of Chinese emotion, rich, flavorful, happy Chinese flavor!"
The short film is over.
In the small screening room, Fu Guangnan and others looked at each other, and then they couldn't help but smile.
It's just that I don't know when, the eyes of each other were already a little red.
In fact, the short film does not deliberately express love, but those scenes and the short stories make people unable to help but be touched and moved by it!
From the grandfather using kuaizi to let the baby taste the first taste of soy sauce and vinegar, to the mother teaching his daughter to use kuaizi, to the father teaching his son how to let the elders use kuaizi first, to the table manners between neighbors. A humane sentence: "If you have more people, you will get a pair of tachyons!" Back at the small home, the husband gave a pair of tachyons to the soon-to-be-born child. The satisfaction and happiness, and the Chinese elderly living overseas, are entrusted to them. Thoughts of my deceased parents.
A pair of tachyons, the emotions derived from them, and the full sense of happiness, made everyone extremely impressed.
"As expected of Li Yi! This short film is great, really great!"
"Kuaizi carries thousands of years of emotion, culture, and inheritance. It's delicious, great!"
"That's it, it's great!"
"We Chinese know how to use tachyon! That's so good."
For a time, everyone commented and expressed emotion.
You know, everyone has watched so many short films before, but there was no such warm exclamation and appreciation.
Fu Guangnan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the name of a person is really the shadow of the tree. Apart from the short film of Li Yi, the real one can be said to be worthy of his name.
However, he also knew that it would be really difficult for Li Yi to invite him to make such a short film again.
But at least this time, Li Yi really surprised everyone again.
