Like a Flowing River
~ Episode 21 ~
Command of Secretary Dongbao.
Starting today,
the affairs here will be taken over by me.
You're taking over?
Starting today,
I'll be our Xiaoleijia's
debt collection team leader.
I'll handle the city's electric cable factory matter.
We'll go back and you'll take over?
Do you know where the headquarters of this electric able factory is?
Do you know what Yuan Jinqi, the factory manager look like?
Do you know his personality?
Do you know what kind of person he is?
If we leave, you won't know anything, so how will you collect debts?
How many months have you been collecting debts?
From the honored guest of the factory, you've ended up
not even being able to enter the main gates.
You indeed know everything,
but have you asked back even a cent?
Okay already. Stop saying it. Take these army of yours and go back.
Don't exhaust yourself and get sick.
If you do get sick, our village right now doesn't have the money for medical fees.
Quickly go back.
When you talk, you better leave some room to maneuver.
Don't go coming back to find me
- when you're unable to collect the debts. I'm remembering everything you said today. - Just put your heart at ease.
There will never be a day that I'll ask for your help.
Quickly. Quickly go back. My men are on their way and will be here soon.
Okay. We'll go.
Let me see what ability you have to get this debt back.
With someone like you,
you won't be able to enter even the gates.
Sibao, the doors you're unable to enter
won't be able to block me.
Going.
Collecting junks!
Collecting junk!
Collecting junks?
- Do you collect newspapers? - I do.
- How much per half kilo? - 3/10 of a cent.
3/10 of a cent? Really?
Last month, it was only 2/10 of a cent.
Do you have any?
We do. Come.
There are a lot inside. Come in.
- Come. Come in. - Okay.
- Let's go. - Okay.

[ No. 28 ]
Is it this place?
Right. The address is right.
A matter that Sibao,
who is very young, can't accomplish,
what use is it for Old Macaque
to ask us to come here?
Indeed. Indeed.
Sir!
There are too much items. Please help open the door!
Okay! Okay! Coming!
Thanks.
Okay.
Old Macaque.
How come you came from the inside?
An old general doing things is worth 2 new ones.
The thing that a young one can't do,
I was able to do it.
Sibao can't even enter the gates of this electric cable factory, while I
was able to freely enter and exit it.
This is the ability of an old man.
Old Macaque, stop being glib.
How are we going to collect the debt?
It isn't suitable to stay here any longer. Let's go.
If we want the money,
what's most important
is to find the Yuan Jinqi, the factory manager.
Grab him.
Even if he's a stone with a crack, we'll be able to make oil come out of it.
- Right. - I don't believe that a huge electric cable factory like this
- has no money. - Right.
We must capture that asshole factory manager.
These next few days, he won't be in the factory.
They said that he's out for a business trip.
I think
he was avoiding Sibao and the others.
That guy
is using the backdoor instead of the main door
just to avoid our Xiaoleijia's debt collectors.
Even if he doesn't go to the factory, he must go home.
Right?
He lives in the dormitory building at the back.
Unit 1 of No. 3 Building, I've asked around.
Old Macaque,
you're really something.
Can a minor matter like this
impede us from Xiaoleijia?
Okay. Come.
I'm now announcing
that the debt collecting team of Xiaoleijia is officially established.
I'll be the team leader.
Laowu's father will be the deputy leader.
You have a good sight.
You are in-charge of the surveillance team.
You have nimble legs. You'll be the operations team leader.
Okay.
But we all don't know that Yuan guy.
How are we going to tail him?
Can you see it?
This is that man's photograph.
I ripped it from their announcement board.
Look at it clearly.
You hold this.
- Okay. - What will we do if we find him?
Make your voice as louder as possible.
Let everyone knows that they owe us money.
This way, he will think of a way to pay us back.
Old Macaque,
is what we're doing appropriate?
Appropriate?
What he owed is our pension, our medical fees.
These money are all in that Yuan guy's pockets.
- Think about it. - Right. Right.
We'll listen to you.
Listen to me? Laowu's father and you,
stay here and keep watch. I'll bring them
to the main gate. If there are any news,
- let's keep in touch. Got it? - Okay, I understand.
Okay but you're still not moving?
Let's go.
Old Macaque did well.
Brother, you're still praising him?
How did he harm you before?
Have you forgotten?
Before is before.
This time is different.
That Old Macaque,
by bringing Second Uncle and those old man with him,
would be able to collect such a huge debt?
I won't believe it even if you beat me up to death.
You were eating with that bastard Yuan on the same table,
calling each other as brothers. Were you able to collect his debt?
Afterwards, you started to be threatening and aggressive with collecting the debt.
Very easily, he was able to stop you in front of his gates.
You've done both good cop and bad cop act.
If it will not work, it just won't work.
I'll go back now.
I'm going now.
You better put to heart the words I told you.
Everyone in the village is saying
that Old Macaque has a bad character.
If those several million of debt is with him,
what if something happened?
This several million of debt must pass through the bank.
Not one cent will be passing his hand.
What's there to be worried about?
Moreover, you've studied accounting.
You should understand these.
As they say, one gets stupid for 3 years after getting pregnant.
This kind of situation
will never happen to my wife.
I'm tactless.
Old Macaque harmed me before.
Harmed Xiao Hui.
When the investigation team came last time,
he also harmed you.
Why must you still use him?
I remember all those.
But the situation now is different.
A cat has its ways.
A rat has its ways.
For a task like collecting debt, it must be done by people like Old Macaque.
Sibao is just a paper tiger.
Old Macaque is a person that will really bite people.
Only when that Yuan guy feels pain from getting bitten
would he pay his debts.
Am I right?
How about
you tell Old Uncle about this?
Let Old Uncle supervise Old Macaque.
With a reliable person around,
no big problem will occur.
I'll listen to you.
Eat slowly.
So delicious.
Were you naughty?
Stop poking him. He'll be kicking me again.
- You didn't sleep all night? - Yes.
- Weren't you on pm shift yesterday? - Yes.
My god, I submit to you. What are you busying about?
As if you're on steroids.
Before, you would at least sleep for a while. After returning from your hometown,
you even abstained sleeping.
I have no time.
No, are you some bird man?
Your salary is not even higher than mine.
Until now, you're not even an assistant engineer yet.
You being busy like this from day to night, who's appreciating it?
Don't you get tired?
By the end, won't you still be like that group of college graduates,
having salary and position upgrade only once a year.
I really can't understand what you're doing this for everyday. Crazy.
Eat it while it's warm.
You're really about to become an immortal.
I don't have a son. If I do, I'm fine with him not going to college than become someone like you.
Thank—
Jeez!
Xiao Bao, let me ask you.
What do you want to be when you grow up?
A shepherd.
- Why do you want to be a shepherd. - To earn money.
Why must you earn money?
To marry a wife.
Why do you want to marry a wife? To take care of my sheep.
After reading you so many famous stories,
you didn't remember any of them and just remembered the shepherd story.
It's easier to remember.
- Once your son gets born, you only know to tell him the shepherd story. - No...
Xiao Bao, listen to father. I was talking nonsense earlier.
This story should go like this. Why must you marry a wife? To bear you children.
Why must she bear you children? To take care of your sheep.
- Don't listen to your father's rubbish. We won't become a shepherd. - Right.
Xiao Bao, I was just joking with you.
Once you grow up, you must study hard.
You must become like your mother.
He doesn't need to just learn from me. I don't even know farming and would still need your help just to plant a flower.
Wife, you can't say it like that.
You are currently heavy. Hard jobs like that should be done by me.
Weren't you great raising rabbits and planting vegetables before?
Moreover, a person should be educated.
That will make him amazing.
Look at Old Xu and Xiao Bao's uncle, those are people with talent.
Being like now is good too. I like how you are now.
Dongbao, although you don't love studying,
but you are experienced. That's also a kind of talent.
Xiao Bao, you heart that? Your mother praised me.
He heard it.
You're pretending again.
- He kicked me. - When did he kick you? - This rascal...
Once our child is born,
the flowers in the backyard would also have bloomed.
Upon opening his eyes, he'll see so many flowers. He surely will be very happy.
Right.
Once the flowers bear seeds, our Xiao Bao can already talk.
Once the flowers bloom again next year, he can already run around the garden.
How can it be that fast?
My son follows me, impatient.
The asshole has showed himself.
- Where? - He went home through the backdoor.
- You're sure. - I'm sure. We have people monitoring all this time.
Okay. Today, let's have a 'catching the turtle inside the jar'.
Quickly wake up.
Your pensions and medical subsidy are all inside there.
If you don't want any money, continue sleeping here.
- Wake up. - Second brother.
Continue sleeping. Just keep watch here.
Story recited with the rhythm of bamboo clappers, start!
Let's sing! The electric cable factory does business.
It buys, also sells. Noisily puts up its sign.
Gold sign.
Silver sign.
All are inferior to Factory Manager Yuan's rotten house sign.
Right! Come!
Evil hearted. Busy in hiding from his debts. Not paying up and losing all his reputation.
Not paying up and losing all his reputation.
What are you all doing?!
What are we doing? Collecting debt.
You are already living in your dormitory buildings. The money for Xiaoleijia building them,
you haven't paid even one cent! Do you have any conscience?!
Laowu! Laowu!
I'm here!
- Laowu! - What is it Third Uncle? - Your father got beaten up.
- Who? My father? Where? - In the electric cable factory.
Xaio Yu, get the weapons. Brothers, come with me!
Go! Go! The old man got hit! Quickly get up the car!
- Go! - Laowu! - Get in the car!
My father got beaten up.
- Everyone, calm down! Laowu! - Get up the car!
- Don't be rash. - What not be rash? The person hit isn't your father.
- Get in the car! - Listen to me! I'll tell Dongbao about this first. What if you get taken advantage there? - Let's go!
What taken advantage? Those people in the city are all cowards. With us this many, you think we can't beat them?
Take your weapons! Our Xiaoleijia can't be bullied!
- We can't be bullied! - Third Uncle, what's going on?
Our old men are getting beaten up. If we still don't go, it will be too late!
- How many people went. - Hundreds.
The people from the brick factory and prefabricated panel factory all went. Anyone related to them also rode their bike to go.
- Why didn't you stop them? - How can I not? Laowu almost hit me.
No, did Old Macaque not keep watch of them. - This has nothing to do with Old Macaque.
Third Uncle who came back to report said that Old Macaque didn't hit anyone or caused trouble. He was just reciting song with a bamboo clapper and was punched for it.
Enough, stop with the nonsense. Hongwei, take the remaining people in the village
- and go with me to the electric cable factory. Or else, a major problem will happen. - Dongbao! Dongbao!
- Secretary's Wife. - Brother Shigen.
Don't get agitated. Dongbao is a labor model of the province and a major representative in the city.
With such a prestigious reputation, people will surely give him some respect in handling this affair.
Moreover, in this matter, our village is in the right.
When you're in the right, you can travel anywhere. No need to worry. That...
I'll help you keep watch of him. Go back and rest.
Uncle!
Uncle.
Dongbao's wife. Come. Come in.
What is it?
There's trouble in the electric cable factory.
What trouble?
Old Macaque led some men to collect their debt.. The people who returned said
that Second Uncle got hit. Laowu then brought hundreds of people to go there.
Dongbao was afraid that bigger trouble will happen, so he led some men to rush over there without discussing it with you.
- They are running wild. When did this happen? - They have left for a while. - That muddled Dongbao...
If Dongbao isn't there,
the village people may not really cause trouble.
With Dongbao going there, they are now bolder.
Plus, the more people, the more mouths. Someone will just fan the fire and they will all attack. Things will then
get out of hand.
Uncle, say,
what should we do?
Dongbao's wife, help out too.
Don't let anything bad happen at home too.
I'll go to the city now.
Leave the matters there to me.
Uncle, but our people plus those in the electric cable factory
would total to hundreds. What if...
Dongbao's wife,
I'm the past secretary of the village. At the very least, people in Xiaoleijia will give me respect.
Let's try quell this matter first.
Okay. We'll listen to you for now.
Dongbao's wife, you go back first.
Carrying such a huge abdomen, you be careful too.
Uncle, how about I go to the brigade office to wait?
If any of them calls, I can receive the news immediately.
Okay.
Move slowly. Don't worry.
Hello?
I'm from the City Public Security Bureau. Tell Lei Dongbao to answer the phone.
Our brigade's leader is out.
Is there anybody there that's in charge?
May I ask if anyone from Xiaoleijia got involved in any trouble?
Trouble?
A group of people from your village is surrounding the electric cable factory.
Are they trying to destroy and loot it? This is a crime of gathering to incite trouble.
Comrade, listen to me first.
The electric cable factory kept delaying to pay our Xiaoleijia's construction and material fee.
It's been more than a year. That Factory Manager Yuan kept hiding from us.
The people from our brigade went there to collect debts.
Collect debts? This is acting wild. Do you know that you've caused major trouble?
What state-run enterprise are you? You all are just loathsome creatures!
You owed us money! We'll destroy your houses!
Step back!
Everyone, please keep quiet! Move back!
Why are the police here? Could they be targeting us?
What is there to be afraid of? Police are supposed to catch the bad guys.
They hurt our men and even owed us money. Are you still afraid that they would be taking their side?
Step back!
People from our village, move back!
Hello.
I am Chen Pingyuan. Has Lei Dongbao led men to collect debts?
Yes, County Governor Chen. They went to collect debts.
This is ridiculous!
Lei Dongbao is a representative, a model worker of the province. Isn't he tarnishing the reputation of the leadership by doing this?
County Governor Chen, all these started because
the electric cable factory in the city refused to pay its debt.
They cheated the Xiaoleijia Brigade to use its advance construction fund.
They did not make the payment for more than a year. When the factory manager finally showed himself,
everybody went to look for him in a fit of passion.
Lei Dongbao actually went there to stop them from causing trouble.
When Lei Dongbao comes back, tell him to immediately come to the county to see me!
Older Brother, you must support us.
We can't make a wasted trip here. Ask them to return the money.
Have you become too clever for your own good?
You've come here to act like a hero in front of their gate. Look at how capable you are now.
It's them who are too much! Did you not hear what they were shouting just now?
- We are unable to stomach this insult. - Right.
RIght, what right?
This situation isn't that simple.
I allowed the elderly people to come here to collect the debt for it is right and proper.
You bring all these people here to fight and create violence, which made it an entirely different nature. It would appear unreasonable even if you did it for a reason.
- Aren't you all stupid? - He's out, he's out. Old Macaque is out.
Old rascal, get lost!
I'm telling you, count this as your lucky today. If this was 10 years ago, I wouldn't be letting you all off easy!
The Secretary is here.
Say, you old fellow!
You never speak a word of truth everyday. You're the only one who got beaten up.
Why must you lie and say that my father got hurt?
It's your father who cared about me and had you all come to save me.
If it was said that I was hit, I swear that none of you guys would have come.
Okay, fine. What did they say inside?
Dongbao, that rascal factory manager Yuan said that he has no money.
He asked that we collect the debt from his higher-up, the 2nd Light Industry Bureau.
This is treating us like a leather ball and kicking us out.
I just want to ask you, what evil plot is this? You've escalated the matter so much. How are we going to bring an end to this?
Let me tell you this. I already have a plan.
The first step is to find this rascal Yuan.
This step is the most critical.
Second step, go to him to collect the debt. This is nothing more than reciting a story to the rhythm of the bamboo clappers, just to torment him.
The third step is to think of a way to provoke this Yuan guy.
Incite him to beat me up. In this way, he becomes totally beyond reason.
He owes a debt which he didn't pay, and now he has beaten someone up too. So now, we can come here and block up his gate to demand for the payment of debt.
What's the use? Have you gotten any money after doing all these?
Now, their electric cable factory really doesn't have any money.
The dormitory that they build was in violation of the rules.
We have been asking for the payment of the debt for more than a year. It is quite obvious that this is a bad debt.
Let me tell you this. Only children who cries get to drink milk.
So how are you?
I'm alright.
What are they talking about over there?
Sister-in-law. Sister-in-law.
Sister-in-law.
Did something happen to someone?
What something happened to someone?
Why have you come here?
The truck transporting the reinforcing bars is here.
Hasn't those who can make decisions for the prefabrication factory all gone to the city?
According to the rules, only the Brigade's accountant is authorized to count the stock on their behalf.
The driver is still waiting to leave.
Co-villagers! They owed us money but refused to pay, and they are even being bold with conviction. Return the money!
Return the money!
Return the money! Return the money!
- Return the money! - What should we do?
Return the money! Return the money!
This is the delivery note for today. Please take a look and sign it if there is no problem.
Okay, Mr. Driver.
Let them be quick about the work. I have to rush back to top up the petrol.
- Okay. - Sister-in-law.
Sister-in-law, these are the temporary workers that we hired from the other brigades.
You just need to stand here to count the stock. Let them do the unloading of the goods.
Sorry to trouble you.
This is what I should do.
Misters, can I trouble you to get onto the truck to count the stock for me?
Just count by the bundle.
Okay. No problem.
Sorry to trouble all of you.
Xiao Yuan, bring the driver to the office and make a pot of tea for him.
This unloading will take some time.
Sister-in-law, why not I keep an eye on it?
There is no need. The stock counting and the unloading has to be done by the same person.
Isn't this the rule? Go!
Sister-in-law, don't be too worried.
Shigen is keeping an eye on Secretary Dongbao. No big trouble will come out of it.
Go.
Mr. Driver, let's go in and drink some tea first. Rest for a while.
- Okay. - They will still take some time.
Okay.
- Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Driver. - It's alright. It's alright.
- Be careful, Sister-in-law. - Yes.
This way. This way.
A total of thirty bundles.
You finished counting them so quickly?
Finished counting.
Is this number correct?
It can't be wrong. We counted according to the rules.
Okay, then unload them.
Okay.
Mister, be careful.
Don't worry, Sister-in-law.
Calm down! Lei Dongbao, what is this about?
No, you are here at last!
You have to give your people justice. You have to help us get that ¥600 thousand of debt back.
Don't talk about this first.
Quickly leave with your people. The leadership of the city will be here very soon.
If you don't ask them to disperse, you will bear the consequence of it! Disciplinary action will be taken against you!
I don't have any problem with disciplinary action. As long as you get the money back for me, you can take disciplinary action against me any time.
But you can't just take disciplinary action against me along. That fellow Yuan from this electric cable factory
maliciously refused to pay the debt first, and then he hit and injured our old people. You have to take charge of this matter.
You have to reflect this to the higher-up.
- Who did he hit? - My father!
Those young people there just started hitting people without discerning right from wrong!
My father is already in his seventies. County Governor, you have to give us justice!
Let's talk about it calmly!
The cit mayor! The mayor is here!
The mayor is here!
- Please calm down! - You won't return the money? We'll tear down your dormitory building if you still don't return the money!
- What are you doing? - Tear down the dormitory building!
County Governor Chen, what the electric cable factory took from our Xiaoleijia Brigade are money meant for food and saving lives.
Everybody acted spontaneously. I also just came here to stop them. Am I right?
Right!
Lei Dongbao, let me tell you this. As long as you don't let the matter escalate any further, we can solve whatever problem through negotiation.
That can be discussed.
County Governor Chen, the City Mayor asked the two of you to go over there.
The City Mayor is really here.
If this matter is not handled properly, both of us will be in trouble.
Move aside! Move aside! Move aside!
- Shigen, Laowu, the City Mayor is here. - Don't move forward.
Control the situation.
Co-villagers, retreat slowly. All retreat.
Dongbao!
Old Uncle, what are you doing here?
Dongbao!
- Don't worry! - Don't bother about why I'm here!
- You have to placate the people first! - The City Mayor is here. I have to explain everything to him!
City Mayor!
Lei Dongbao, no matter what methods you use, tell your people to calm down immediately!
The city's electric cable factory owed a debt and refused to pay up. You have to give us justice.
As long as you don't make anymore trouble, I will mediate
the matter concerning the debt.
Okay!
Move back!
Back!
Just drive back in a straight line.
Back! Back!
Sister-in-law.
Sister-in-law!
What's wrong with you?
- So painful. - Secretary's wife!
Blood.
Mr. Driver.
Mr. Driver!
Sister-in-law!
Sister-in-law, you have to hang in there. Sister-in-law!
Mr. Driver, can you drive faster? Make a turn in front!
Make a turn in front! The clinic's over there!
Alright! Okay!
I'm already maximally stepping on the gas pedal.
Sister-in-law, hang in there. We are reaching soon.
Sister-in-law, don't scare me. Sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law, we're here. Hang in there.
- Sister-in-law, I'll go call the doctor. - Doctor!
- Doctor Wu! Doctor Wu! - Hurry up!
- Doctor Wu! Quickly come look. - Okay. Okay.
Quickly check. How is she?
No. No. She's hemorrhaging. We can't handle her here.
- Quickly go to the county hospital. Go. - Mr. Driver!
- Go to the county hospital. - Let's go! Hurry!
Sister-in-law, hold on for a little while more.
City Mayor, the one who is at the wrong here is not our Xiaoleijia.
It's his electric cable factory!
Lei Dongbao, as a member of the party,
you didn't resolve the problem through proper means.
You led men to create trouble
causing very a bad effect.
The party will surely severely punish you based on regulations.
I'm fine with receiving punishment.
But we must clear up the reasoning here.
We are peasants and uneducated,
but no one should swindle us. The city electric cable factory
deliberately owed us money and won't pay us back.
Those money are the pensions and medical subsidy of the old members of the village.
They owed us since last year.
Moreover, these old men went there to collect debts by themselves.
But what happened? They beat them up.
I already have no money to give to these old men.
Now, new crops have not yet come.
Below the soil, there are also no food to eat. These old people must starve then.
Secretary, City Mayor,
what peasants give most importance to is food.
After being poor for so many years, they've grown afraid of it.
Even if you're uneducated, you shouldn't create disturbance. You shouldn't blocked traffic.
And you.
If you electric cable factory doesn't have funds, why create some dormitory?
How did you get an approval for that?
City Mayor, the Second Light Industry Bureau didn't give any approval for the electric cable factory to build a large scale dormitory.
We only gave them an approval for 200 square meters of collective dormitory based on their current funds.
Adding those two buildings of dormitory together,
it would at least be more than 5,000 square meters.
Tell me, what's going on?
City Mayor, Secretary,
it's like this.
Last year, our factory heard about that there will be tax reforms,
but we don't know how it will go.
So, we took the opportunity while we still have some profits from independent operation
to build houses and distribute them to the laborers.
- We considered the welfare of our factory's employees here. - Enough. Enough.
Stop saying.
You want to have an accomplished fact
and stick all these profits to the houses.
This way, you don't need to report it.
Phone call from Secretary Lei's house. His wife got sent to the hospital.
What happened at our home?
Your wife hemorrhaged.
Secretary, City Mayor,
with Lei Dongbao being like this, I fear that something bad might happen to him. I'll go check on him.
Go.
Okay.
Dongbao!
There's no taxi here this late. I'll drive you.
Secretary Shui.
I'm done with the report.
That fast?
I can only dare say that it's fast, but not that it's good.
You know how to be humble now?
Three-phase structure.
The logic is very clear.
The data are complete and accurate.
Little Song,
you really did great this time.
I'll hand it over this next few days.
What?
Do you still have something you want to supplement?
This report only proved the inadequacy of FRC.
We still haven't found a very good replacement plan.
Just breaking and not establishing
isn't the right path of doing things.
That's right indeed.
When I do things,
I also hate people
who only knows to criticize,
but unable to suggest a good idea.
Secretary Shui,
can you make the factory allow me for a few days leave?
I'll go back to our school to do research.
Your school has files that we need?
Being the best chemical engineering university in the country, Anyun University
has very strong latest international data.
But,
a university is still different from an enterprise.
I myself am not sure about
the practicability of these documents and their degree of compatibility
with the current equipment of Jinzhou.
Little Song,
are you willing to go to Beijing?
Go to Beijing to research?
I'll make you a recommendation letter.
Go to Beijing
and research on documents inside the ministry.
Of course, that's great.
The files of Beijing is the most complete.
I can't even dare think about it.
Give me two days.
I'm going to think about
how to appropriately arrange it.
Since you're going to go there,
it's better to meet too
the field experts.
Okay. Okay.
Don't get too happy first.
With us troubling so many people for this matter,
if you don't bring me back
convincing data,
I'll make you pay.
I believe that Secretary Shui won't get the chance to make me pay.
Dongbao.

♫ Flowers quietly bloom in the spring ♫
♫ Looking forward to the big and ripe golden fruits of Autumn ♫
♫ Those seeds of hope ♫
♫ that our predecessors sowed ♫
♫ will be reaped by their successors ♫
♫ The proud sun of summer burns like fire ♫
♫ Emerging layers of waves are still warm ♫
♫ Push open a window, let the breeze blow past, ♫
♫ as if spring has come to visit ♫
♫ The wind and snow of winter sweep past ♫
♫ Bringing songs of harvest during autumn ♫
♫ When did the rain fall? When did the wind stop blowing? ♫
♫ Telling stories of the past ♫
♫ The spring breeze continues to blow, still looking forward ♫
♫ to the flowing rivers of age; time fleetingly passes by ♫
♫ A journey of difficulties and loud songs ♫
♫ All belong to us ♫
♫ Smilingly watch as time ♫
♫ passes by ♫
