Episode 36
Pei Lin
While drawing your last breath...
What words did you leave for me?
Pei Lin
Jing Wan.
If you love me,
you must live well
and live happily.
Live on?
Pei Lin
Jing Wan.
If you love me,
you must live well
and live happily.
Live happily.
Seven years later.
At the river's bank
On the eve of the Japanese War's conclusion
Sister Wan.
The newspaper is here.
Take a look. - Okay, thanks.
Sister Wan. Why are you still concerned about this?
I'm only concerned about when the price of gold will rise and fall.
Sister Wan, you are really amazing.
You excel in gold speculation.
I'm only doing this so the children have food to eat.
That's right.
Okay, go back to work.
I'm going back to work then.
It is a vertical hook.
Remember this.
Good.
Mom, I'm back.
You are back.
Aunt, hello.
Hello, everyone.
You are so well behaved. What are you learning?
Calligraphy.
Study well. Everyone, you must remember that
you need to write correctly
and behave correctly. Do you understand?
Yes.
You will be singing for the aunts and uncles later.
Get ready.
Go now.
Go now. Go.
Mom, Limin Society gave us a donation.
It's enough for food for the children to last for a few months.
Jing Wan. You are really great.
You have managed to feed many children.
Mom. The price of gold keeps going up lately.
I think we should buy a few more bars
and then sell them later for a better price.- All right.
Okay, I will listen to you. Mrs. Wan from next door even said that you have an eye for this
and wants to buy them together with you.
Give these to me.
I'm sorry.
Let me pass through, please.
Xiao Zhang, give me five bars.
Here's the money.
When we sell these gold bars,
the children will have a comfortable life.
Come.
Slowly.
Mom.
I would like to discuss something with you.
Once we have made money from the gold bars,
I would like to do something else.
What do you want to do?
You know that Xin Zhi went to the mountains to do charity work.
He won't accept money from his patients.
It hasn't been easy for him all these years.
I would like to use the money to help him.
Okay.
We are not living an easy life.
I always made you suffer.
Thinking about it, I feel unworthy of you.
Silly child.
Don't say foolish things.
With a daughter like you,
I'm fully content.
Jing Wan. You and Xin Zhi
should consider your future.
All these years, Xin Zhi has been silently
taking care of the both of us.
I think you should consider marriage between the both of you.
I know.
Mom.
I will think about this.
I promised you
I would live well.
I will be brave and live on.
Qing Qing, everything will be fine.
Xin Zhi.
Please wait for a while.
What's wrong?
Xin Zhi. Look, she seems to have a fever.
It seems so. Come in and sit.
Come.
Okay.
Go to the pharmacy later and get your medicine.
Come, Qing Qing.
You must take the medicine to get better.
Be good.
- I'm not drinking. - You will be fine after taking the medicine.
Have a spoonful.
Have a big mouthful.
Good.On the 8th of August the Soviet Union
declared war on Japan, sending 1,157,000 soldiers
in over 3,400 planes
and 5 500 tanks.
The Soviet Army, in three columns, heads Northeast from China.
On the 9th, Soviet Union launched a general attack against the Japanese Army
taking over Kuril Island at the same time.
Did you hear that just now?
The Soviet Union has declared war on Japan.
I think this war will end soon.
It should be over soon.
This war has been going on for eight years.
Yes. During these past eight years
many families have disappeared.
And how many people have become refugees?
Xin Zhi. After the war is over,
soldiers will be returning from the front.
I want the children in the orphanage to be able
to look for their families.
I think when that time comes,
the one who won't bear to see them go is Aunt Yin.
What are you talking about?
Once they find their families, she will be extremaly happy.
Qing Qing, come and eat.
You will recover after you have eaten.
Okay?
Come, Qin Qing. You must eat more so that you can get well. Understand?
Let's eat.
Here.
Qing Qing. After you have eaten, I will take you to the movies. Okay?
Okay.
Xin Zhi.
Once the war ends,
let's get married.
Eat now. After we have finished eating, let's take her to the movies.
Qing Qing. Let's go to the movies after we have finished eating. Okay?
Okay.
Come, Xin Zhi. Eat more.
Japanese bombs
destroyed many bridges and roads,
seriously hampering transport
and affecting the life of the people living in war zones.
Our Army has thus faced difficulties
in the supply of food and ammunition.
Despite this, if 400 million Chinese people
will rise and unite, we will be unstopable.
Fishermen from nearby villages came
to repair bridges and devastated roads,
offering their own strength
and sweat to restore the country.
Jing Wan, what's wrong?
It's Pei Lin.
Pei Lin?
Could you please replay the film again?
Are you kidding? It's already over.
Sir. Just now, in the film
I saw someone.
Please replay it again.
I would like to see if that is the person I'm looking for.
No. Can't you see that the projector is already locked.
If you want to watch it, come again tomorrow.
I'm begging you.
He is my family.
He's very important to me.
Please replay it. Okay?
Okay, I will replay only this once.
Thank you.
Thanks.

Pei Lin?
Impossible.
That man can't be Pei Lin.
It's him.
It's my Pei Lin.
I know that
he's still alive.
I already wrote the itinerary for you.
Remember. When you get there,
you must look for my friend at this address.
He will arrange a place for you to stay.
Also, you can ask him to help you to look for Pei Lin too.
He has many contacts and may be useful.
Xin Zhi.
Thank for you letting me go and look for Pei Lin.
How could I not let you go?
If I weren't so busy, I would go with you.
I know, in my heart,
your love for me has been selfless
but all along, I couldn't give you anything in return.
Before you, I am too selfish.
Xin Zhi. I owe you.
I can only pay this enormous debt
in my next life.
Don't say such foolish things.
Being able to be together for the past years,
helping and supporting each other
to me,
was already a great reward.
Thank you.
I don't have any other wishes.
I only hope that
you will be happy.
- Mom. - Hello, Aunt.
Jing Wan, listen to me.
You must be careful on your journey.
Come back quickly.
Once I leave,
you must take good care of yourself.
With Xin Zhi and the neighbours here,
and also the children, you don't need to worry.
The children want to give you a present.
Outside the road shelter by the ancient trail,
grasses are green and wild.
Willows are waving with lingering flute
Sun sets behind the mountain
To the ends of the earth, gone are the friends and acquaintances.
Take a farewell cup with kind wishes,
leaving the heart with cold dreams.
When I leave,
you must be good and listen to Grandma.
Study well. I will miss you.
Aunt.
You must come back soon. We will be waiting for you.
I promise you that
I will come back soon.
When we reach there...
Where are you going?
I am going to Yongning.
The car is parked on the grass.
Once we get out of the railcar
we must be extra careful.
Let's go.
- Where's your ticket? - Go in.
Jing Wan?
An assassin!
Protect your boss.
Go after them.
Move aside.
Don't move.
Move aside.
Stop!
If you dare to come closer, I will shoot her.
- Jing Wan? - Don't shoot.

If you really love her,
you expect no reward,
other than seeing her living happily.
Jing Wan.
Just kill me.
I caused the death of your father.
I also caused the death of Mu Rong Feng.
Jing Wan.
Kill me.
You are the master of your own fate.
Not me.
Xu Jian Zhang
You will meet your end.
Jing Wan.
I still wanted to have an opportunity
to float the lanterns on the river with you.
May I ask if you have seen this person?
No. I don't know him.
Okay, thank you.
May I ask if you know this person?
No.
They have surrendered.
The Japanese have surrendered.
May I ask if you know this person?
No.
Big Brother, hello.
Please take a look. Do you know this person?
It seems to be him.
Thank you, Big Sister.
Big Sister?
What's wrong?
You don't recognize me?
Who are you?
Pei Lin.
Pei Lin!
Miss, what did you call him?
I called him Pei Lin.
What Lin? His name is Fourth Idiot.
Fourth Idiot?
Yes. He is very clueless. He doesn't even know who he is.
Sometimes, he calls himself
Fourth Master. Who's Fourth Master?
But he's a nice person.
We all call him Fourth Idiot.
He was injured in his head.
He doesn't remember anything.
Let's go.
Big Sister, are you lost?
Would you like a cup of tea?
Come.
Here, have some tea.
There are some snacks here.
Have them.
- Thank you. - No need to thank me.
Due to the war we are lacking grain. These are not so good.
Orchids?
Yes.
These are orchids you planted?
They look beautiful.
Do you like orchids very much?
I do not know why I planted them.
I especially like this kind of orchid.
Perhaps, I grew them in the past.
About the past,
you really don't remember it?
The past?
I don't care about it.
Why?
Think about it, Miss. If you forget everything
you are also forgetting the sad moments.
Isn't this good?
Just like now, I catch fish every day
and grow these orchids. The days are fine.
Isn't this good?
You are right.
You don't remember anything.
You live with no worries.
It's good too.
Let me tell you.
This is my favourite orchid.
I don't know what its name is though.
This is Tianli.
What?
Tianli
It can't be that
you don't really remember
how it looks when it blooms?
What's wrong with you?
Nothing.
Why are you crying if it's nothing?
I'm here to look for someone.
This person and I
have gone through a lot.
We loved each other very much
and have also hurt each other.
Our love wounded us so much
that we had to finally part.
Other people told me
he died in the war
but I didn't believe them.
I think
he is still alive.
He's waiting for me in an unknown place.
Don't be like this.
Heavens protect all those who have good hearts.
If you are sincere
you will definitely be able to find him.
Big Sister?
I am sorry.
I have taken up too much of your time.
It's okay.
I'm leaving.
Take care then, Big Sister.
Pei Lin.
You must live well
just like now.
Live without any worries.
Pei Lin
I want you to carry me forever.
I have always wanted to tell you this.
Jing Wan.
I will love you
forever.
Jing Wan.
Jing Wan!
Jing Wan.
- Pei Lin. - Do you remember
when we parted on the frozen bank of the Chengzhou River?
There was something I always wanted to tell you.
What was it?
I wanted to tell you
I will love you
forever.
