[Memory of Encaustic Tile] EP15 | Joyful Highschool Life with My Childhood Sweethearts | YOUKU
♪The bicycle bell rings and takes me back to the alley I saw in my dream♪ ♪I invite the sunlight to traverse the morning fog and breeze with me♪ ♪Riding my bike, trying to catch up to the fleeting youth♪ ♪The Forbidden City made from red walls and encaustic tiles in my memory♪
♪Unlike the hustle and bustle of everyday life♪ ♪It’s quaint and peaceful♪ ♪Throughout the ordinary and extraordinary four seasons♪ ♪Some words are just like seeds♪ ♪Growing in our youth, changing our future♪ ♪Who can understand the silence in our hearts?♪ ♪We once thought our dreams were somewhere far away♪
♪We wanted to grow up as soon as possible♪ ♪Some waited while some traveled♪ ♪How far away is our future?♪ ♪Now, each of us♪ ♪Has gone through a lot♪ ♪We have grown up♪ ♪Finally confirming that love is faith♪ ♪There’s no need to wander anymore♪ ♪The questions we asked back then♪ ♪Have been answered gradually♪
♪Through the passing of time♪ ♪Who had pursued their dreams and left no regrets behind?♪ ♪Returning to this place in the end♪ ♪Returning♪ ♪To the place that I’ve always loved♪ ♪We once thought our dreams were somewhere far away♪ ♪We wanted to grow up as soon as possible♪ ♪Finally confirming that love is faith♪
♪There’s no need to wander anymore♪ [Memory of Encaustic Tile] [Adapted from Beifeng Sanbaili’s original novel “Memory of Encaustic Tile”] [Episode 15] [Some People Are Young while Some Were] Other people’s children know about their parents but not me. Tell me. If I told you, your mother would’ve shredded me to pieces.
She won’t. I swear. [Fruits and Vegetables, Counter, Necessities] Really? All right. When your mother was young, she was also a beautiful girl in our hutong. She had beautiful big eyes and a long and thick ponytail. Mom. You’re back? Mom. I have something to tell you. What is it? I went to the factory and resigned. What happened? I want to… I want to find Dongge. China is so vast. Where are you going to find her? I’ll start from the north and all the way down south.
I’ll slowly look for her. I’m sure I’ll find her. Go. She’s your wife. Go and look for her yourself. I need it by today. The client wants it early. It’s getting dark outside. Can we take a break? Leave if you don’t want to do it! Don’t complain here! Hurry up! Get working!
[Meihua Tailor] Dongge. Let’s go and eat together. It’s fine. Go without me. We’ll be leaving then. See you tomorrow. -We’ll be leaving. -See you tomorrow. ♪I don’t care if it’s right or wrong♪ ♪I won’t allow you to live alone♪ ♪Because I love you♪
♪With my affection for you, I’m not afraid of the cold wind♪ Excuse me. Is there a tailor around here? I don’t know. ♪But I won’t back down♪ ♪I just want to hug you♪ Four. ♪And pass the times together♪ ♪If I have to leave you♪ ♪I’ll definitely cry out of despair♪
♪My sky is dark♪ ♪My body will thence become an empty shell♪ ♪Accompanying each other when we are lonely♪ ♪Is the pleasure of my life♪ Who is it? Hello. Sir, are you here to make clothes? Excuse me, I’m looking for a person. Go away if you’re looking for someone. Crazy.
♪But you are already gone when I turn around♪ ♪I hope to taste♪ ♪All the joy and sadness with you♪ ♪I write a song to bless you♪ ♪The lyrics are pure and delicate♪ ♪Even though time flies♪ ♪You are still the love of my life♪ ♪I don’t care if it’s right or wrong♪
♪I won’t allow you to live alone♪ ♪Because I love you♪ ♪With my affection for you♪ Do you know a girl called Yu Dongge working here? She’s no longer working here. She’s no longer working here. Do you know where she went then? I don’t know. Sorry. ♪If I have to leave you♪
♪I’ll definitely cry out of despair♪ ♪My sky is dark♪ ♪My body will thence become an empty shell♪ He left. ♪Accompanying each other when we are lonely♪ ♪Is the pleasure of my life♪ ♪Even the cold rain♪ ♪Cannot stop me♪ ♪From chasing after you♪ ♪I just want to reach out and hold you tight♪
♪But you are already gone when I turn around♪ ♪I hope to taste♪ Dongge. That man has been coming here for many days. Don’t you want to see him? ♪I write a song to bless you♪ ♪The lyrics are pure and delicate♪ ♪Even though time flies♪ ♪You are still the love of my life♪
♪If I have to leave you♪ ♪I’ll definitely cry out of despair♪ ♪My sky is dark♪ ♪My body will thence become an empty shell♪ ♪Accompanying each other when we are lonely♪ ♪Is the pleasure of my life♪ ♪Even the cold rain♪ ♪Cannot stop me♪ ♪From chasing after you♪
♪I just want to reach out and hold you tight♪ ♪But you are already gone when I turn around♪ ♪I hope to taste♪ ♪All the joy and sadness with you♪ ♪I write a song to bless you♪ ♪The lyrics are pure and delicate♪ ♪Even though time flies♪ ♪You are still the love of my life♪
Dongge. I know you’re inside. There’s no need to hide from me. I will go back tomorrow. I will tell Mr. Yu that you are doing well. I’ll ask him not to worry. Don’t worry about that. Just do what you want out here. Mr. Yu is doing well.
He is just drinking and talking about you every day. If you are free, remember to write him a letter. Don’t let him worry about you. I will take care of him. I’ll take care of him like my own father. Don’t worry. I don’t know if you’re living a good life right now. Remember.
Don’t let yourself suffer. If someone dares bully you, tell me. I will come from Beijing and beat him to death. If you miss home, just go back. I’m leaving. Sorry. Sorry. What happens after that? After that, I returned to Beijing with your mother. We worked at the Restoration Department together, get married
And gave birth to you. You are all grown up now. Dad. You’re a real man. Actually, your mother is very amazing. She might be nagging you every day, but she did you for your own good. She is frugal. She won’t eat anything nice because of you. Look. Your tertiary education,
Your Two Plus One program to study abroad and even your marriage in the future, she planned all of it. She has saved various funds for you. So, you should not be so stubborn sometimes. She did everything for you and this family. Mr. Qian. Your wife is so amazing.
So, the songs you listen to now will become your memories when you grow up. Both of you went for so long just to buy salt. I forgot the salt here. Xue. Don’t stand there. Get me a stalk of spring onion. Here. What are you doing? It’s nothing. I just want to hug you.
If that thing you bought online has arrived, remember to show me. I want to see if it’s real or not. [Pizza Hut] Thank you. How are you with Shao Xue recently? Just like that. I told you that group of people was unreliable, but you still wanted to get along with them. See?
All right. Let’s not talk about this. Let’s eat. I’m buying. Excuse me. That’s all your orders. Enjoy. Aren’t you trying to lose weight recently? So, I ordered less food. Why aren’t you eating? Aren’t you hungry? Here. Let me feed you. It’s fine. Let me feed you. Haoran! Mom. Hello, Mrs. Wang.
You are so shameless at such a young age. Mrs. Wang. How can you say that? I was wondering why my son’s results have been getting worse. Turns out it was you who was pestering him. Haoran. Explain to Mrs. Wang. I… Haoran, tell me! Mom. She is indeed pestering me. [Waiting Area] Next!
Xue, how many people are in front of you? It’s my turn after him. It’s also an honour to introduce… Have some water. Don’t be nervous. Why didn’t you prepare a script? There’s no need. They are looking at our IELTS results. My result is 7.5. You’re so amazing. The IELTS result
Of Xue is 8.5. Next! It’s my turn now. I’m going inside. Do your best. [International Education Exchange Student] Please don’t worry. You can start. [Admission Interview] Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Shao Xue. Please. Sorry to interrupt you. But having sit here the whole day listening to self-introductions seems like
They come from the same template. I’d like to ask you something I’m interested in. Yes, please. What is your favourite school? Any school from anywhere. Hogwarts. Hogwarts? Yes, you heard me right. The Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You asked me about my favourite school
But didn’t say it can’t be from a fiction. You must like Harry Potter, huh? Yes. Why? A lot of people didn’t believe in magic until he came along. It is amazing what he can bring to the world. Tang Ya! How was it? Thank you for today. If it wasn’t for you,
I would’ve been so nervous. No way. Xue, did your interview go well? It went quite well. Shiyin isn’t here for the whole day. Do you know what happened? I didn’t contact her recently. Sure. I’ll go later and look for her myself. Remember to tell me if something happens to her.
Where are you going? I’m going to look for Zhang Qi. [Qiming High School, Competition Classes] [Keep Quiet] Zhang… Zhang Qi. Zhang Qi. Miss, I’m going out for a while. Your class is so scary. Everyone is staring at me like a monkey. Not really. A monkey’s brain is similar to a human’s.
You look more like a pig. I’m going to kick you. Spare me from your trotter. How can your class accommodate someone like you? They wanted to chase me away but they couldn’t beat me in a fight or win against me in an argument. That stupid class monitor also organised
A movement to boycott Zhang Qi. That’s too childish. You are so pitiful here. Don’t come and find me in the future. I’ll go and look for you. I’m not afraid of them. Oh, why are you here? Here. What is this? Trying to buy me? Are you mad? This is from your mother.
Both of you are so weird. Why can’t you two speak your heart out when both of you are living under the same roof? You guys just have to come to my house and let me be the messenger. Rich people’s thinking is so complicated. I’ve not seen her for almost a month.
We argue whenever we see each other. This can be considered my birthday present. How wonderful. She gave you in advance and gave you so much. I really hope my mother could give me money every time. Why did you argue with her again this time? I told her
It was fine even if I couldn’t find her because I’m used to it. I wanted her not to blame me if she couldn’t find me in the future. Zhang Qi. Ms. Zhang Ling is busy at work for your sake. There’s no need for polite words between us. Both of us knew
How lazy my mother was before my father left. She’s not some kind of capable woman. After my father left, she hasn’t stopped working. I’m sure she made enough money. Why is she still so busy? She’s just afraid to be with me alone. You are overthinking. I know.
She will think of my father when she sees me. Why did I tell you so much? I must be out of my mind from doing all the questions. Next week, let’s have Pizza Hut every day. I’m going back. Zhang Qi! It’s not your birthday yet. Don’t grow old now. Change back.
What are their parents trying to do? They even came to our house and asked us to let their son go. I am Shiyin’s mother! Don’t I know what… what my daughter is like? I’m telling you. If it wasn’t his son lying to her with pretty words, I’m sure she won’t be fooled.
Calm down. The school is taking this matter seriously. So, I came here to learn more about this matter. It’s not right for their parents to do that. Not right? What do you mean? Their parents were so impolite. They came here and raised a ruckus until everyone from the hutong heard them.
My child is a girl. How can my daughter go out with dignity in the future? When rumours are out… Enough. -It’ll be so embarrassing! -Stop shouting. Stop shouting. Do you think it’s not embarrassing enough? It is embarrassing! I am her class teacher. I believe Shiyin is a good kid.
She won’t do anything out of line. So, both of you should calm down. Don’t give Shiyin too much pressure. After this, just let the school handle this matter. Handle this immediately and think of something to prove my daughter’s innocence. That’s enough. Have you heard about Shiyin? Yes. How could she do that?
That was so embarrassing. Ms. Li. Ms. Liu. Xue, wait. You are close with Shiyin. Don’t learn from her. Xue, has school ended? We are going back. Let’s go. Ji Lan, don’t cry. -It’s bad for your health. -Mom. Dad. I’m back. I watched Shiyin grew up. How can I not understand her? Yes.
Ignore what they say. Why do you care about people who spread baseless rumours? Yes. We should live our own life. Sure. Do you want me to accompany you? Sure. Calm down. Calm down. I… Why did you hang up so early? I’m still… The phone bill is expensive. Mom, what happened to Shiyin?
She has a complicated relationship with a male student. That’s not the worst. That guy insisted Shiyin was the one who pesters him. His parents went to Shiyin’s house to complain and said they could pay as long as Shiyin let go of their son. I’m telling you. Those words were so unpleasant.
That’s not what happened! Wang Haoran is a jerk! He fooled Shi… You knew about this? Do I… Know about it? I guess so… You… She guesses so? Why did you hit me? Why didn’t you tell us? Aren’t you good friends with Shiyin? What are good friends? Good friends should monitor each other,
Improve together and study together! That’s the right way. I’m telling you. If we had known about this earlier and stopped it from happening, it wouldn’t end up this way. Besides, a girl’s reputation is important. The neighbours are all pointing their fingers now. They are… Xue. Look into my eyes.
Look into my eyes and tell me. Are you hiding something from me too? I’m not. I’m warning you. Use Shiyin’s matter as a warning. Someone at your age should study well at school. Don’t think of any nonsense. You can’t scold her regarding this. Our daughter is similar to me. She’s stubborn.
Besides, this is other people’s business. Why are you so anxious and getting mad? You are always siding with her. How can I not be anxious? Look how anxious Ji Lan is. Fine. I don’t want to argue with you two. I’ll simply make some food for you two. Eat here
While I go to accompany her. I’m going right now. Why are you going there? Something happened to Shiyin. I’m going to see her. Why don’t you… Forget it. Just wait for a while. Why? Everyone is talking about her now. Just let them talk. You should avoid her
In case they talk about you too. Mom, I think you are a bit mean. I’m mean? What do you mean? Look at her. I care for her and she says I’m mean. This is… Mr. Shao. Ms. Yu. Sunian. Xue. My mother bought this for you. Sunian. Great timing. You are my benefactor.
Xue wants to visit Shiyin badly. I’m stopping her from going. I’ll be relieved if you go with her. Go. You’re so mean. Mean. Let’s go, Sunian. We are leaving then. Go on. This child is… Mean. Everyone cares about their child. I am Ji Lan’s good friend. I don’t mind arguing
And quarreling with her. But my daughter is a good kid. I don’t want people to talk behind her back. Sunian, don’t you think Wang Haoran is too much? Indeed. I thought his worst trait was being pretentious. I didn’t expect he would do something like this. Shiyin must be very sad now.
Didn’t you get into a quarrel? That is our internal conflict. You don’t understand the friendship between girls. No matter how serious our quarrel is, we will unite as long as an external enemy appears. Ms. Ji. Xue. Ms. Ji. I want to talk with Shiyin. She is locking herself inside her room.
She won’t open the door for anyone. Why don’t you give it a try? Shiyin. Shiyin. Open the door. Let’s talk. Shiyin. If you don’t open the door, I’ll think you’re still angry at me. Shiyin. Ms. Ji. Although I don’t know the details, Wang Haoran’s words can never be trusted. But his mother said
He is a very pure boy. According to my opinion about him, he is anything but pure. You can go to the school and ask around. Ask the boys. Don’t ask the girls. Then, you’ll know how bad he is. That jerk. I’m sure he fooled Shiyin. After meeting someone like him,
Just take it as a lesson and don’t mind other people’s opinions. Thank you, Sunian. I will listen to what you say. Ms. Ji. Why don’t you tell us again when Shiyin is willing to come out? All right. Xue. Thank you for coming to see her. Ms. Ji, don’t say that.
I’ll be leaving with Sunian first. Don’t be sad. Shiyin is definitely not what they say she is. Goodbye, Ms. Ji. Stop thinking about it. It’s her matter after all. You can’t shoulder that for her no matter how close you two are. I’m just don’t get it. Why did Shiyin
Meet either a bad teacher or a bad student? Sunian, you must not fall in love early. Who can I fall in love with? I heard many girls have been passing notes to you. Do you have any girls you like? No. What about pretty ladies? I can’t see them anyway.
No matter how pretty they are, it doesn’t matter since they are not in front of me. All right. I’m going home. Bye. Shiyin. Don’t feel sad. It’s not worth it. They are not worthy of the Little Li Flying Daggers you requested. Actually, I knew all along. You were the one who requested
The Little Li Flying Dagger songs. I’m sure you like this song a lot. Every time when I hear you requesting this song, I would be judging that person. I think all of them don’t suit you. But I also believe the best Li Xunhuan will be waiting for you in the future.
♪Swinging the sword, unable to cut the tie♪ ♪The water is surging non-stop♪ Good morning! Good morning. Come to my house tonight after school. I have a huge plan to tell you guys. Sure. Why aren’t you feeling excited? I’m excited. What’s wrong with her? What a jerk Wang Haoran is!
I have been feeling disgusted about him. [Diligent, Grounded, Efficient, Thoughtful] Isn’t she ashamed to come to school? Exactly. She was always flaunting in the past. Now, she’s down in the dumps. What are they talking about? What’s wrong with Lin Shiyin? Don’t you know? She has been embarrassed. What’s wrong with Shiyin?
She got bitten by a dog. Huanhuan. Hurry up. Come to my house tonight to discuss a big plan. All right. Why are you looking dejected as well? Shiyin’s not happy. Although Wang Haoran and his mother are both disgusting, Shiyin is partly at fault too. Don’t say that. What’s wrong with that?
Have you forgotten how she treated you? She deserved it. Shut up. Why did you appear? Whenever I hear someone badmouthing Lin Shiyin, I will appear automatically. Wait, aren’t you quarreling with her? So what? If you quarrel with Sunian, will you leave him be? If he quarrels with me because of Wang Haoran,
Of course, I will. Simple-minded. Men are all the same. I’m lazy to explain. Wait. I’m excited about celebrating my birthday, but all of you are so dejected. What now? Zhang Qi, sorry. But we are really not in the mood. Unless we solve Lin Shiyin’s issue first. Fine. Beg me. I have an idea.
-What is it? -What is it? It’s still that idea. Come. Let’s go and eat Pizza Hut. No. No. It’s bad if parents see us. Shiyin, wait. Why? Do you want to laugh at me too? No. I don’t think it’s worth it because of Wang Haoran. Move aside. No. Ms. Miao.
Are you free tonight? What is it? [Announcement Room] (You’re only pretending!) -(I was only pretending.) -Move. No. Move! I’ll let you in when the announcement is over. You’re defying my orders? You can’t go in! Remember to lock the door when it’s over. Yes! Shiyin is so pitiful. We’ll be leaving. Huanhuan. Come, let’s go home together. What’s wrong? You’re still ignoring me? You’ve been ignoring me for a long time. You know that? You always came to me when we quarreled previously. This time,
You wouldn’t talk to me at all. Didn’t I find you yesterday? You were the one who didn’t open the door. I was embarrassed yesterday. How could I reconcile with you? Why didn’t you find me earlier? Who told you to get along with Wang Haoran all the time?
I did it to anger all of you. Didn’t I get so angry until I couldn’t eat and drink? What else do you want me to do? Don’t be angry anymore. You are so ugly when you’re angry. Got it. Do you know what’s going on? No. Aren’t you the friend of all maidens?
This is beyond my understanding. That’s enough. What are you two doing? Let’s go home and discuss my birthday celebration. Come, let’s go home. [High School Essay Training Camp] What is this? You’re taking us to an essay training camp on your birthday? This is a distraction.
Celebrate my birthday at the beach with me on the weekends. We depart on Saturday morning. Two days and one night. We’ll come back on Sunday night. Did you become stupid from competition class? My mother won’t agree to it. This is the key tool. This is the High School Essay Training Camp
That my mother’s unit organised. Two days one night with guidance from famous teachers. With this, our parents will definitely agree. They will surely ask Ms. Zhang Ling directly. My plan is always perfect. My mother forgot her phone during her business trip. When the parents call her, they will be calling this phone.
To respond to teachers’ calls, I’ve pre-recorded my mother’s voice messages to reply to anything. But why don’t we go to Xidan District and just eat KFC? Going to the beach is far and troublesome. Right? After this, we have people who will go for the NCEE, study abroad, participate in competitions, work,
And even an arrogant one. We don’t have time to gather anymore. Shouldn’t we leave some wonderful memories? All right. Dismissed. Action. I want to join this at the weekends. It’s organised by Zhang Ling’s unit? Why didn’t I hear her mention this? No. Ms. Zhang Ling is too busy. She forgot about it
So she asked Zhang Qi to gather people for her. She asked for Zhang Qi’s help? All of us are going. Let me ask her. It’s so late. Don’t call her. I’m just calling to ask. Hello, Zhang Ling. I’m in a meeting. Be quick. You’re in a meeting so late at night?
I’m hanging up. I don’t want to disturb you. Just say it. Xue brought home this flyer about the High School Essay Training Camp. She said it’s organised by your unit. Is that true? Yes. There are many famous teachers on this flyer. It’s two days and one night and it’s free? Are you
Doing some kind of charity? It’s my idea. That’s great. I’m just asking. Can parents follow along? No one does that. Do you think you’re special? I’m just asking. Besides… I’m busy. I’m hanging up. Hello? She’s too busy. I really shouldn’t call her at this time. She hung up before I finished talking.
I already told you not to call her. Seriously. Xue, just go. That’s not right. Why do I remember Zhang Qi’s birthday is this weekend? Why did you all choose to study instead of having a feast? ♪As I traverse this path without minding it♪ ♪My memory does all the hard work for me♪
♪All the memories♪ ♪Are embedded deep within my heart♪ ♪The past I’ve been hiding from year after year♪ ♪Carved into the days long gone♪ ♪Although simplicity is plain♪ ♪Its vibrancy has never faded♪ ♪Those songs in the past♪ ♪They had accompanied me through everything♪ ♪Singing♪ ♪About the stubbornness of our youth♪ ♪Using this song♪
