[Memory of Encaustic Tile] EP02 | 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 question we asked back then♪ ♪Have been answered gradually♪
♪Through the passing of time♪ ♪Who has 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♪
♪No more wandering aimlessly♪ [Memory of Encaustic Tile] [Adapted from Beifeng Sanbaili’s original novel “Memory of Encaustic Tile”] [Episode 2] [Fun-filled Night] Senior. Sunian, you wanted to see me? There’s something I’d like to talk to you about. What is it? I wonder [Qiming Middle School] if you’ve heard of a song before.
♪Even though I was armed with good talents♪ I’ll show him. ♪I can’t pass through the ordeal of love♪ ♪Unable to pass through♪ ♪Tenderness and sweetness♪ ♪Swinging the sword, unable to cut the tie♪ ♪The water is surging non-stop♪ Mr. Shao, time for lunch. Zheng. ♪Love can’t be broken♪ Come on, let’s go eat.
You guys go ahead. I’m taking care of something good. What are you doing? It looks familiar. It’s for Jin Ning. You’re fixing it and giving it to her as a birthday gift. I’ll pack up some lunch for you. Guys, look. Zheng Jin! Come on, look. Stop fiddling with it. Next, you go like this. And then like this. [Math] [Political Ideology 3 Cultural Life] Stay away from the belle of the school. Zheng Sunian, someone wants to see you. I dare you to go out. Zheng Sunian! Just you wait! What do you want to eat tonight? My treat. Hotpot. What’s the matter, Sunian?
What happened? The valve cap is gone. The one in front is flat too. Which punk did this? It’s fine. You guys can go first. I’ll push it home. I’ll push mine back as well with you. You’re making it sound like I’m ditching him. It’s really okay.
Let’s go. My mom will be back tonight. I’m fine with taking my time to get home. I thought you missed your mom so much. Don’t make things up. I wonder who said it. “Mom, I miss you so much!” “Give me a hug and kiss.” Zhang Qi! Stop right there! When you go
To Panjiayuan to pick through those scrap metal, help me look for antique-looking buttons. I just need two. What do you mean by scrap metal? The things I pick up are all collectibles… Scrap metal, yes. I don’t care what you pick up. I just need two buttons. Just two.
Jin Ning’s birthday is in a few days. I plan to make a nice scarf for her. Jin Ning’s studied abroad. Are you sure she’ll like your taste? Dad. You’re getting bold. Kid, don’t you dare sow discord. My wife has the most amicable temperament. And she’s so gentle and sweet.
You like this, don’t you? Here. Have some more. Eat more. Eat more. Don’t waste it. Eat. At least give me some meat. You have had too much meat, so your mouth gets greasy. My state in this family is… I’ll eat. Come on. Eat up. Pizza again?
Even if it’s good, we can’t have it every day. I’m busy. You know it. Next time, I’ll bring home some Japanese food for you. Really? Make sure you get a lot of salmon and Arctic clams. Sure thing. Son. How is it in school? Pretty good. Is anyone bullying you?
There’s no way I’d get bullied. Sunian’s the one being bullied. Sunian? A good kid like him is being bullied? Today, after school, someone removed Sunian’s bike’s valve cap. Who did it? That’s hateful. No idea. But don’t you worry. I have his back. Listen up. Act when you have to. Don’t make unnecessary trouble.
Don’t worry. I know what to do. Sunian. And fresh news at school lately? As usual. You guys must have a new task, right? No. What’s wrong? No one has anything to share. How frustrating. Sunian. What happened to your book? Someone scribbled in it. Is it that same punk? Sunian.
You can’t just let this slide. They’d walk all over you. That’s right. Shall we also steal his valve cap tomorrow? That’s too childish. If you ask me, we’ll just confront him at the school entrance and beat him up. That’s enough. I don’t want trouble. Do your homework. Sunian. Xue needs liquid paper.
Go help her get it. It’s in my room. Why don’t you go get it? You have long legs so you’re faster. Yes. I wrote it wrong. Do you know who that guy is? I’ve asked around. That punk is in the same class as Sunian. His name is Zhuang Dada.
He stole Sunian’s valve cap. Scribbled in his books. Trampled on his uniform. Sunian’s lost his mind studying. He had no reaction despite being bullied like this. Unbelievable. Beat him up! Everyone has their own shortcomings. He’ll be in charge of learning, while we protect the world’s peace. Tomorrow morning, stay out of Sunian’s sight,
Go to his classroom, and pass a love letter to Zhuang Dada. Why should I? Do you think he’ll show up if I openly declare war? Why should I do it? You do it. Do you want me to profess my love for him? You’re professing your love? [Qiming Middle School]
I’m professing my adoration for Xue’s watch. [To Zhuang Dada, Class 3, Grade 11] For Zhuang Dada? Are you sure you got the right person? Yes. Thanks for the help. Your taste is out in left field. It’s not from me. Thank you. Why isn’t Zhang Qi here yet? [North Gate Store]
Who are you waiting for? Are you Zhuang Dada? Aren’t you the one who wishes to see me? I’m warning you. Don’t you dare touch Sunian. Sunian? So it’s Zheng Sunian again. Sunian does not want to pick fights with you. But we are backing him up. If you dare bully him again…
What will you do? We’ll show you! Zhang Qi. Aren’t you supposed to go with Shao Xue to buy books? Sunian. What a coincidence. You’re going to confront Zhuang Dada. I just wanted to give him a warning. But that punk didn’t come. A failed warning. Shao Xue isn’t part of this, I hope.
She helped to pass a love letter to get Zhuang Dada out to meet me at the North Gate. But neither of them showed up. I’m guessing he saw Shao Xue and wasn’t interested. Ouch… You’re hurting me. Where is she? Who? You can bully me. But you can’t bully her. Understand? Hey.
Let me go first. Let me go… Sunian. Boss. He’s bullying me! Boss? I mean, you are quite good-looking. Why are you acting like a slum? I… I’m good-looking? Yes. Thick eyebrows. Big eyes. Just that… Your temperament needs improvement. You mean… If I change, the… the school’s belle is going to like me?
Of course. How do I change? Why should I teach you? I’ll take you as my boss! Boss. Please teach me. Alright. You can go. Don’t forget to teach me though. Remember not to bully Sunian again. No problem. Temperament. For you. Now scram. Thanks, Boss.
-I have to hand it to you. -Do you want it? Xue! Zhang Qi. The sun has set waiting for you. What are you doing here? Didn’t we agree to meet at the North Gate? Is this the north gate? What else would it be?
[North Gate Store] Can’t you read the big sign over there? This is the south gate. Don’t you know your directions? This is clearly the North Gate. This is the opposite neighborhood’s north gate. Not our school’s north gate. The opposite neighborhood’s south side is our school’s north side. So the neighborhood’s north gate
Is our school’s south gate! Xue, look here. Is it pretty? Not bad I guess. Is it nice? It’s so nice. Lin Shiyin. Mr. Liu. What were you doing? Show me your hands. Show me! What are you doing? Practicing punches? Stretch your fingers. Now it’s a palm technique? Straight out.
What does school rule No. 26 say? You tell us. No snacking in class. You only care about eating. Zhang Qi, you tell us. No hitting teachers after school. I dare you to hit one. Hand over the nail polish. Stand outside the classroom for one session. Please don’t, sir. It’s embarrassing.
You actually feel embarrassed? You want to look pretty, right? You can show off your beauty in front of the whole school then. Sir. The nail polish is mine. She’s innocent. A grown man like you. Why do you have nail polish? Time for class. Remove the nail polish after the lesson. Shiyin.
Don’t be upset. Serves you right. I’ve been scolded by Demon Liu plenty of times. Just let it go in the left ear and out from the right. I rather my ears rot from being scolded than have anything to do with that guy. [Corner Sundry Shop] Mr. Qian. Please change these into notes.
Count carefully in case you miss any. I want three of these. Deduct from there. No! I’m saving the money to buy a present for Ms. Jin Ning. So stingy. Boss. Have you thought of what to get her? Yes. I noticed when Winter Sonata stopped broadcasting, she was depressed for some time. I’m planning
To get her the CD. That’s hard to find. Do you have connections? Haven’t found one. I do. You know how well-connected I am. Then let’s go together tomorrow. Okay. You guys go. I have something to do. What is it? I’m meeting someone. Who? A schoolmate. A girl? Come on. Tell me.
Come on. Don’t be shy. What? Which female schoolmate? What’s her name? He used to tell me anything. Done counting. Exactly 50. I wasn’t looking. Please count it again. Never mind then. No, I’ll change it. Give me one of these for free. Hey… Thank you. You owe me 0.5 yuan. Shiyin. Shiyin?
What is it? Are you upset because of today? I wasn’t thinking properly. I didn’t want Mr. Liu to scold you. I can take care of my own matters. Don’t be such a busybody. Anything else? If not, I’m going to sleep. [Perfect Music Store] ♪Even though I was armed with good talents♪ [Meteor Garden]
♪I can’t pass through the ordeal of love♪ What do you think Sunian is actually doing? Stop asking. Everyone has their own little secret. Boss. Hey. Call me Haonan. Hey there, Haonan. I’m Pheasant. [Young and Dangerous] You look like a promising lad. Join me. What do you want? I want you to speak properly.
Stop messing with me. What do you need? Get to the point. Boss. I’m looking for Winter Sonata. Is it allowed to be broadcast at the TV station? Recently, I think it’s not allowed. Recently? This young lady knows how to be obscure. Are you over 18? Yes.
Why do we have to be over 18? The storyline has cancer, traffic accident, and memory loss. One needs to be strong enough to digest it. All the stuff not allowed to be aired is here. What? Don’t look. Have some dignity, Haonan. Brother. We’re looking for proper love stories. The love stories I’ve got
Are much more exciting. Showing these things to minors is illegal! What? Stop, don’t look. He doesn’t have what we need. Let’s go. -Let’s go. -Stop! Hold on. I was kidding you. Here you go. 10 yuan. Why didn’t you say so earlier? Acting all sneaky. You better get rid of that stuff.
Or else I’m going to report you. Young lad. You’re still too green. Stop looking. Don’t break it. I don’t know any other place to get a new one. By the way, what were you looking at secretly with the boss? That’s between men. It’s none of your business. What is going on?
You and Sunian sure have a lot of secrets lately. He’s different. He… is flirting with a girl. Have you seen it? I haven’t. Now that you mention it, I’m getting curious. What kind of girls do you think Sunian likes? Zhang Qi. Xue. Mrs. Li. How long haven’t you two been involved
In community service? We haven’t finished our homework! Stop right there! Nobody is exempted. This is part of the extracurricular assignment for your Grade 10 students. If you don’t come to the neighborhood committee, I won’t sign for you. Go to the neighborhood committee right now. Get some posters
And put them up on the notice boards. I’m going to check it later. I forgot the soy sauce. Go do it now. Don’t forget it. Go now. [Neighborhood Committee Activity Center ] It’s always a hassle with Mrs. Li. She asked us to work but did not give us the key.
I’ll go get her. Wait. [Liuli Hutong Neighborhood Committee] Why not just climb over the wall? My legs are weak. I can’t do it. I know better than to depend on you. Give me a hand. Hurry up! [Mailbox] Will this be okay? Hold it steady. Be careful. I’m impressed.
Let me hear it. Am I good or what? What are you looking at? Sunian! Where are you? What happened? It broke. What broke? The disc. Your leg is broken? I’ll trust you on this. Thanks. Is it bad? Sunian. Xue broke her leg. What do we do? Get someone to open the door.
What happened? Are you sprained? Doesn’t concern you. Why not? You’re busy, aren’t you? It’s finished. You only remember me after it’s finished. Is it bad? Leave me be. Leave me be! What is wrong with you? You’re much too old to be climbing over walls. I’ve never seen another girl like you.
Xue, are you alright? Why are you carrying her? She sprained her foot. Sprained her foot? Is it serious? Quickly. Bring her inside. I’ll go get Dr. Liu. Hurry up. Put me down. You can’t walk. I want Zhang Qi to carry me. What’s the difference? I’m scared of heights! Gently.
Come. One, two, three. Go. Were you saying I’m short? Just move it. That hurts. [Neighborhood Committee] The bone is fine. Just rub it with ointment to stop the swelling. No need to go to the hospital. That’s good. I was so worried. I’ll go inform your mother. Mrs. Li! Don’t climb over walls again.
Which one of you will get the ointment with me? I’ll go. Shoot. What did I do to cross you? We’re not your buddies anymore. Xue. Why are you always making me worry? -Is it painful? -Yes, it is. I want to go home, Mom. Okay, we’ll go home. I’ll carry you home. Come on.
Come here. Sunian, give me a hand. Go away. Go away! Mrs. Li told me what had happened. Why… You better not do it again. Don’t hit me, Mom. Don’t you go climbing walls again. Did you forget you’re a girl? Why are you here? Where’s Xue? She’s gone back home with Ms. Yu. Hey.
Do you think Xue is sick? Of course she is. I’ve got her medication right here. What did I do to annoy her? Annoy her? It’s probably that time of the month. You even know that? Of course. Who am I? The friend of all women. Girls are such a hassle. She’s no girl.
Just think of her as a guy who gets a monthly period. It’s not the same. Yeah, it’s not. When I carried her just now, I felt… something soft. Hmm. It is indeed soft. What is it? Are you feeling better? It hurts so bad. Are you still angry? Hmm. Angry about what?
First of all, you don’t treat us like buddies. Secondly, my disc got broken. Ms. Jin Ning’s birthday present is gone. You broke it yourself though. That’s because I saw the two of you. Us two? You only hang out with her and totally disregard us. Where did you get it?
It’s my fault. This is the compensation. I’m sure you don’t want to see my mom empty-handed. Not angry anymore? Forget it. I’ll just… forgive you. Make sure you prepare lots of good food for me tonight. I’m off. [Liuli Hutong] Happy birthday, Ms. Jin Ning! I’m so blessed. I won’t be opening
The presents from the adults. I’ll only open the ones from the children. Ms. Jin Ning, this is my gift for you. Let me take a look. Where did you find this? This is… I went to great lengths to buy it. How thoughtful of you. Thank you.
I’m glad you like it, Ms. Jin Ning. Ms. Jin Ning, this is from me. What is it? [Happy birthday, Ms. Jin Ning] Errand ticket? Zhang Qi, you’re being so perfunctory. This shows my sincerity. I’m going to use it. At your service. Alright. Ms. Jin Ning. This is my gift for you.
It’s so beautiful. What a delicate hairpin. Shiyin really has deft hands. I secretly modified my mom’s pendant. Please keep it a secret. Thank you. Ms. Jin Ning. I folded these myself. Come on, show me. I like the present from Wu Huan the most. I’m going to hang it by my bed
And enjoy it every day. Thanks, Wu Huan. Sunian. Where is your birthday present? It’s a secret. So stingy. Kids. Time to blow the candles and eat cake. Come on, let’s go. Let’s go eat some good food. Get seated. [Liuli Hutong Neighborhood Committee] ♪Happy birthday to you♪ Thank you, everyone.
Ms. Jin Ning, make a wish, quick. I wish that all the residents of Liuli Hutong be happy and harmonious. Great! Come on. Let’s drink! [Happy Birthday] -Who’s that? -No idea. Someone unfamiliar.
