【FULL】Jiajia’s Lovely Journey EP08 | He Derui × Huang Sirui | 何加加的桃花源记 | iQIYI
[English subtitles are available] Brainless. These peanuts were freshly harvested. Try them. Mr. Lin, say, don’t you think he’s arrogant? He has no sense of responsibility too. Who said so? I’m fully responsible for my own happiness. What about the people around you? Have you ever been concerned about the people around you? I shouldn’t be concerned about other people when I couldn’t even make myself happy. Do you know what we call this? We call this an imbecile. Stop flaunting your literary skills. Have you never thought of your readers, your editor, and me? I mean, your assistant. All of us are live beings. We’re not characters that can be neglected after you shut down your computer. All of us are trying our best to stay strong. What gives you the right to refuse to work? You bear the expectations of your readers and our livelihood on your shoulder. You might think that your words aren’t that important. But listen up! When it comes to your novels, it’s unacceptable to write one chapter, one paragraph, or even one sentence less! It’s unfair to us! No, I won’t do it. You’re so childish. We’re holding the annual village meeting. Come here immediately. Hurry up! [Kiosk] [Episode 8] [Your Backpack] ♫ I know the distance is a dream and a direction ♫ ♫ I have yet reached there, but I long for it ♫ ♫ I know the distance is not unreachable ♫ ♫ What’s wrong with crying from losing one’s youth and growing up? ♫ ♫ We used to live arrogantly ♫ ♫ Why should we be like others? ♫ ♫ I’m a thorn growing on a cliff ♫ ♫ I grow stronger as I become colder ♫ ♫ You can fly with wings, and flowers will bloom ♫ ♫ Find the conviction you had in the beginning ♫ ♫ I can live more beautifully than before with high spirits. ♫ ♫ It’s crazy when you love, and it’s normal when you don’t love ♫ ♫ I’ll walk away spectacularly ♫ ♫ Efforts won’t be wasted, if it was real because memories will shine ♫ [Jiajia’s Lovely Journey] [Zong’s Ancestral Hall] Respect the court. Mom, you can play Justice Pao all you want at home, okay? Such audacity! It must be new to you. This is one of the unique traditions here. Who’s the one sitting in the middle? That’s the village head of Taoyuan Village. He was the first undergraduate of the village. He’s renowned in the village. How do I address him? Mr. Guifen. Mr. Guifen? Mr. Guifen? Silence. We shall hold the meeting now. What’s the matter? He stole my eggs! Her chicken occupied our chicken nest and laid its eggs in it. How many eggs? How many days has it occupied the nest? Over 10 eggs. Over 10 days. The eggs are yours. Do you rear chickens? You shall send eggs to her over 10 days. You should let his chicken occupy your nest for over 10 days. Is that a deal? That actually worked? The issue is solved. Who’s next? Bring the criminal here! This morning, I went to the city to transport some strawberries. I found this girl hiding in a basket. She wasn’t willing to come out. She insists on following me into the city. Lass, why are you trying to head to the city again? I have been enrolled in the city’s dance troupe. I’m going to pursue my dance career. Dance career? You mean with this? How many days do you plan to stay there? I’ll move to the city. I won’t come back. I’m going to pursue my dream and become a famous figure. Can you make a living by dancing? Nonsense. One of my cousins works as a bricklayer in the city. He earns a lot of money. How old are you? There are many crooks in the city. You shouldn’t go there alone. They use gutter oil for cooking in the city. What if you consume it by accident? There’s formaldehyde in their houses. You’ll get sick if you stay there. If you don’t believe us, you can ask those three who came from the cities. In my opinion, Jin Yinhua is already 18. We should respect her will. That’s right. She should still retain her dream. What if she does realize it one day, am I right? Someone! Bring in the Dog Head Sword! You don’t need to go that far, right? People will drown in impractical dreams. What gives you the right to say that her dreams are impractical? She hasn’t even given it a try. So, you think her dreams are feasible? Blind encouragement will harm people instead. Even so, it’s better than having no encouragement in life! Jin, what do you think? Look at her. She drove her grandfather away. She’s not listening to the adults. She’s so insensible. She thinks she’s fully independent now. Heading to the city is all she can think about. Let’s wait for her. But why? She’s right. You should realize the responsibilities on your shoulders. It’ll do you no good to live as an egocentric individual without caring for the people around you. Mr. Lin, you’ve been hiding here for many years. I don’t think you have the right to lecture me. I don’t like that. Let me answer a call. Mom? Do you need anything? What? Can’t I call you for no reason? That’s not it. What are you doing? I’m having dinner right now. My friend is visiting me today. I cooked some noodles for them. Alright. That’s too obvious. What do you mean? I think the air-conditioner is too cold. I just want her to block the wind for me. Mom, I’m in the middle of my dinner. My noodles are going to get soggy. I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else. Why are you in such a hurry? Did you get yourself in trouble again lately? No, I didn’t. I’ve been working like usual. How did I get myself in trouble? Do you have enough to get by? Of course. I have a job. Of course I have enough to get by. Mom, I’ll hang up if there’s nothing else. My noodles are getting soggy. Mom? I’ll hang up now, alright? Fine. Jiajia, I need your help. Follow me. Madam He, you finished viewing the house, right? Your daughter did move out. My unit is empty now. Don’t you think you should go now? Landlady, I’ll stay here tonight. Your unit is empty anyway. I’ll treat this as a hotel room and I’ll stay here for tonight. I’ll pay you tomorrow. I don’t think you should do so. Why not? You went against the rules and built a shoe cabinet in the corridor. You’ve blocked the fire exit. Do you think that’s suitable? Suit yourself then. Thanks. What are you doing? I’m executing a tactical retreat. Jiajia, I’ll hide inside the luggage by then. You just need to bring this with you. If anyone asks you about it, you can tell them that… Wait. Can’t you go outside like a normal person for once? To be honest, today’s my 82,146th failed attempt at leaving the village. Are you sure about that? That’s how I feel. Everyone in the village is keeping an eye on me on Grandfather’s behalf. I can’t escape from his grasp at all. If so, have you thought about what you will do after escaping the village? I’ll live in the city and enjoy boundless happiness. Do you know something? If you leave without notifying the adults, you won’t know how to return to the village in the future. You won’t be able to face them. You should have a chat with your grandfather. You’re already 18. You’re an adult now, right? Okay. [Master Kong] Mom, I’ve been doing well lately. Have I been eating well? Of course. I’ve been eating well every day. I always get my wage on time. Lyu Tian was especially nice to me. Really. I’m doing very well here. Don’t worry about me. Mom, my noodles are getting soggy. You should hang up first. I’ll go and have my noodles now. Just hang up. Don’t worry about me. You’re back. Yeah. Where’s that childish brat? Maybe he’s playing video games inside his room. What a childish brat. If only he was truly childish. Just like what you’ve said before, he’s human too. He’s not a character we can neglect after shutting down the computer. He did read a lot of comments regarding the previous incident. They said his writing sucked. Of course, those people were just trying to defame him. He thought that he didn’t care about them. However, I had seen him in that state before. He couldn’t even type out a word even though he was in front of the computer for hours. I think he’s still afraid of it. He’s not a childish brat. He’s a scaredy-cat. You haven’t had dinner yet? I’ll make you a bowl of noodles. It’ll be quick. Jiajia. Come in. What video game are you playing? A walking game. A walking game? Yeah. What’s so fun about walking? Give me your phone. Register an account and search for my ID. Let’s play together. Okay. [Rank 262, Little Bear, Go! 2 points
Rank 286, He Jiajia, Not He Jiajia, 0 points] How do you play this game? Just like this. You’ll obtain powers by picking up items. You’ll pass the level once you reach the mountaintop. It’s that simple? Yeah, it’s that simple. [Stability+1, Load+3] Stability? This is interesting. [Wealth+1, Load+3] [Production+1, Load+2] [Gentleness+1, Load+2] [Tolerance+1, Load+2] [Beauty+1, Load+2] [Love+1, Load+1] [Optimism+1, Load+1] [Rank 100, He Jiajia, not He Jiajia, 10 points
Rank 246, Little Bear, Go! 3 points] I’m already Rank 100? Why aren’t you equipping anything? I like to move with a light load. I can reach the mountaintop with just a few fruits. Indeed. You didn’t want to bear any responsibilities in real life. It’s even worse in a video game. You don’t even want to pick up items. You do live up to your name, huh? [Game Over] What happened? You’re carrying too many items. You cannot pass the level. What kind of stupid rule is that? It’s pretty stupid. That’s why only a few people play it. Why are you still playing it then? You’ve been playing it the entire day. It’s because the mountaintop scenery is nice. Wow. How did you know that I haven’t had dinner yet? It’s matcha-flavored too. I like it. I didn’t know. I’m giving it to you because it’ll expire soon. You’re something else. Take it or leave it. I’ll take it. It’ll expire soon? That means it hasn’t expired. Keep some for me. You took such a huge bite. So sweet! It’s delicious! Give it to me. I want another bite! Give it to me! Stop stealing! I’ll pass it to you when I’m done. -I’ll give it to you after one bite.
-You’re cheating! -Are you a kid?
-Give it to me! Give it to me! Give it to me. I’ll give it to you after another bite. -Keep some for me.
-Fine, here you go. That’s the general situation. It infuriates me when I think about it. Me too. Madam Sang Wen. However… That unfortunate child went missing just because she lost her job and boyfriend. Indeed. She always escapes when she’s in trouble. She’s been like this since young. However… Madam, I know what you’re trying to ask me. I know where she is. Where is she? Initially, I had no idea where she was. However, she got herself in trouble two days ago. She had a scandal with an author. It was even on the news. After that, I saw this. He Jiajia was featured at the very end of the video. I told my colleagues from the tech department to track her IP address. It was the address of her previous real estate project. I’ll look for her right now. Madam, I’m out of time. I have to resume my work. I’ll leave the mission of retrieving He Jiajia to you. Give her a slap when you bring her back. Madam Sang Wen, you’re amazing. I would do so even without your reminder. Madam, you should stop calling me Madam Sang Wen. You’re my elder, you know? But you radiate the aura of a domineering madam. You can take this back to your company. Drink more hot water. You should drink less ice coffee. It’s bad for your stomach. Thank you, Madam. Mister, which of them looks more threatening? Threatening? Who are you trying to threaten here? Does this hurt? Wait. Why are you buying them? What about this? If you wish to purchase controlled knife tools, you have to show me your ID card. He Jiajia. Mom! Fellow villagers, my dear friends, come to the ancestral hall immediately for our village meeting. Thank you for your cooperation. Fellow villagers, my dear friends, come to the ancestral hall immediately for our village meeting. Thank you for your cooperation. Respect the court. What is your case? Mom. Jin Yinhua. Uncle. It’s you again? [Zong’s Ancestral Hall] It’s like this. You guys were afraid that I might suffer in the city, right? I’ve done a survey. Now, I will report the results. First, let me show you the dance troupe’s proof of qualification. [Authorized by China Hip-Hop Union Committee] Look. What’s the use of that? They use this to deceive you! This is a decent dance troupe! They’re not scammers! They even cover my food and living expenses! They’ll pay me 3,000 yuan per month! 3,000 yuan? That’s impossible. There are many crooks in the city. No one will be able to protect you. I’ll surely call my family every day if I head there. If I head there… This won’t do. If you leave, there’s no turning back. You’re a girl, you know? Why are you trying to leave the village? You should listen to your grandfather. So many youngsters had left the village in search of jobs. Why can’t I do the same? You should listen to your grandfather. I won’t! Jin Yinhua. Our village has eradicated poverty in the village successfully over the past few years. However, we need youngsters like you all to develop the village. You can achieve greatness in every part of the world. The opportunities here are the same as in the cities. I believe that the youngsters who had left the village will return to the village gradually. And, someone in your family has to inherit the wood engraving craft… Dancing is the only thing I want to do! I love dancing! There’s no stage for me to dance here! Who shall I perform for? You guys? Isn’t it great to perform for us? Youngsters like you all should stay in the village. Everyone, please stop. Grandpa, please. You may leave. Jin? Meeting dismissed. Yuan Fang, what do you think? Guifen. Can’t you call me Ma? Fine. Ma Guifen. Say, what exactly is a dream? It’s something that belongs to youngsters. It’s the things they want to do and want to obtain. What was your dream when you were 18? Let me think about it. It was nothing in particular. I just didn’t want to work in the fields. I just wished to have more food. I didn’t want to starve. It’s been so many years. Don’t you regret it? Regret what? You were the first undergraduate of the village, you know? Back then, you were celebrated by everyone. You didn’t head to the city even though they wanted to hire you as a teacher. You just had to stay here and serve your mother. If not, you would’ve been a professor by now. No, I mean a professor emeritus. At least it’s better than staying in the village. It’s all in the past now. Why are you still mentioning it? I feel pretty good staying by my mother’s side. Do you not regret your decision? I don’t. If so, have you asked your mother this before? Did she regret her decision not to let you leave? Old fool, you’re pretty irritating, you know? You’re angry at me? Jiajia, which drinks should I get in Starbucks? Recommend something to me. I always saw this on TV. You can’t sleep if you drink that. It’s better if I can’t sleep. I’ll train during the day and play during the night. I’ll visit all the shopping malls! I’ve already made up my mind. When I receive my wage, I’ll send half of them to my grandfather. That way, he doesn’t need to bend his back and sell wooden engraving for a living. And, I will save up enough money to find my parents. I only need two hours to reach them from the city by train. It’s much nearer than the village. Jiajia, you can tell me what you like to eat by then. I’ll deliver them to you. Anything is fine with me. Your parents are working in other states too? Yeah. The parents of the children here all traveled to other states in search of work. If so, what did your parents say about your decision? They told me to listen to my grandfather. They always say the same thing. You must listen to your grandfather. That’s all they say. Congratulations. Your wish is finally granted. After you arrive in the city, make sure to call your grandfather every day. Don’t just run around. You must take care of yourself, understood? Yeah. You’re so naggy. Madam, my grandfather told me to deliver some fresh peanuts to you. Leave them over there. Okay. Jin, when are you leaving? Tomorrow. I’ll be leaving by tomorrow. Tomorrow? You should spend more time with your grandfather. He’s getting older. I spend time with him every day. Silly girl. You don’t understand what I mean. What do you mean? You see, when it comes to old people, the days you can spend with them are limited. So, before you part ways with him, you have to ask yourself this. Have you truly cherished your time with him all this while? Madam, I’ll make a move first. Go now. Grandpa. You’re back. Are you done packing? Yeah, I was done with them long ago. I tried so many times to escape. My luggage was always ready. Let me do it. Grandpa, who will do the paintings when I’m gone? Who do you think you are? Do you think I can’t do them just because you’re not here? You’re worried for nothing. Go upstairs. Okay. Jin Yinhua. Don’t be picky about food when you arrive in the city. Spend your money when you must. Make sure you have your fill. And, don’t mingle with naughty kids. Try and learn new things. Don’t over-exhaust yourself too. Remember to call me every day. And… Forget it. That’s all for now. You’re already a big girl. Just head to the city without any worries. You don’t need to worry about me. What’s wrong? I’m not leaving. What? I’m not heading to the city. I’ve canceled my train ticket. Was it because of what Madam Wen had said? It’s because… It’s because my grandfather smiled at me just now. He used to discipline me in the past. He was always stern and strict. But today, he smiled! He told me to head to the city without any worries. He told me not to worry about him. After that, he smiled at me. I’m not leaving! You were pulling a long face the entire day. It’s nothing. I was thinking that I was just like Jin Yinhua in many moments of my life. I’ve given up on many things for the people around me. Are all of them bad memories to you? That’s not it. I just don’t know whether they’re good or bad. When I was young, my mother wanted me to learn the piano. That’s why I learned it, even though it was excruciating. My mother wanted me to study at a local university. That’s why I changed my first ambition. She wanted me to be successful. She wanted me to… I don’t know whether they’re good for me. But you knew that those weren’t the things you want, right? If so, I think Fang Wenyu is pretty amazing in that regard. He never does anything that he doesn’t want to. When he says no, no one can change his mind. Speaking of which, where is he? I know where he is. Hey! Why are you here again? I wish to view the scenery on the mountaintop. Can you bring me there? Sure. Follow me. Hey! I can’t move! You’re over-encumbered. That’s why you ran out of energy. Remove your backpack. I’m going to discard some items for you. Okay. [Load-1] [Load-1] [Load-1] [Load-1] [Load-1] [Load-1] [Load-2] [Load-2] [Load-1] [Load-3] [Load-1] Why is your ranking higher than mine [Rank 299, Little Bear, Go! 1 point
Rank 300, He Jiajia, not He Jiajia, 0 point] even though you didn’t pick up any items? We’re almost there. Don’t fall behind. Okay. (I can finally accept the last rank) (with peace of mind.) (And I finally got to see the beautiful scenery) (meant for the last rank.) Where did you get this? I thought it wasn’t that heavy when I removed it from your backpack. That’s why I kept it. It’s raw? It’s a village special. It’s nice, right? It’s not bad. Where are you going? The scenery here is great. I want to help another person to let go of her burdens and enjoy the view together. Who is it? Is it a guy or a girl? It’s none of your business. Listen to me! Just go for it! But… Just go for it! You can come back if you feel unhappy. You can come back if you fail to adapt. You can come back immediately when you miss your grandfather. You’re still young. You shouldn’t think too much when you make decisions. At most, you can regret your decision. No one can stop you from regretting your decision, right? But I’ve already canceled my train ticket. That’s fine. We can buy a plane ticket. A plane ticket? That’s expensive. No way. The airline company is celebrating its anniversary today. They’re giving out flight tickets for free! Remember to call me every day. Did you hear me? Yeah. Grandpa, remember to call me too. Did you hear me? Okay. When you’re there, you shouldn’t mingle with kids who aren’t from the village, you hear me? But why? He’s afraid you might marry yourself off. Jiajia, take care. Take care. Lin Da, take care. We’re not close. Spare the formalities. Yeah, I think so too. [Youngman Transport] Jin Yinhua, wait up! Why are you guys here? Why is Guifen here? Mr. Guifen. I’ve already written down the contacts of my bricklaying relative on this note. You must call them when you’re starving, alright? Don’t stand on ceremony. Did you remember that? Yeah. Thank you, Mister. Someone! Bring in the Dog Head Sword! Take this with you to ward off evil. Alright. Thank you, Madam. I will miss you. I will miss you too. This is an old hen I reared personally. You won’t see this in the city. She can’t bring everything with her. I’ll deliver them to her next time. Thank you. Remember to avoid consuming gutter oil. Okay. Are you touched by the scene? It’s because the ticket is too expensive. My pocket is still bleeding from it. Laoda, I’ll miss you. I’ll miss you too. Alright then. Get on the bus. Goodbye. Grandpa, I’ll miss you too. Take care of yourself, okay? Okay. Thank you, mister. He Jiajia! Mister, please open the door. He Jiajia! Stop right there! Was she in huge debt? I’ll break your legs if you keep running! You’ll break my legs if I stop running! [Do you think it’s better for youngsters to develop their careers in big cities?] It depends on the occupation. Not necessarily. Even if you’re starting your business in a small city, you might learn something new if you’re the pioneer. I might prioritize developing my career in a big city. I’ll think of heading back after scoring some achievements. You have more opportunities in big cities ♫ I still remember meeting you at Jiangnan creek in that summer ♫ compared to small cities. ♫ Your beautiful smile confused me like a startled swan walking in the snow ♫ Not necessarily. Many of my friends developed their careers in second or third-tier cities, ♫ Who’s the one in the dress playing the flute stirring my emotion? ♫ and they’re doing better than those working in first-tier cities. [Will you become what your family wants you to become? Or will you be yourself?] ♫ You can fly across the ridge with a green bird as a gift from the twin lotuses ♫ I think I’ll try to become what my parents had envisioned for me. ♫ The willow tree is likely to return to its origin in the rainy season ♫ I’m not doing it because of anyone. ♫ The highlights of the southern city opera are endlessly about sorrow and joy ♫ I ended up like this ♫ No one can help themselves when it comes to regrets ♫ when I took it step by step. Of course I didn’t meet my mother’s expectations. ♫ After understanding a little truth, it’s easier to make a vow ♫ However, I’m still happy with what I have achieved. [Rank your parents, friends, yourself, and your partner in order of importance] ♫ Fill the bowl completely with spring rain in March ♫ First will be me. The others will come in second. ♫ In a gloomy mood ♫ Child. My children are my priorities. My partner. ♫ I draw out the scroll recalling the saga of the worldly past ♫ My husband comes in second place. After that, my parents. I come in third. I come in last. I think it’s my partner. ♫ The world is like chess. You and I are playing far away ♫ At my age, I think partners are more important. Although your parents gave birth to you and raised you, ♫ Separated far away. Yet, we cherish each other ♫ your partner would stay with you for the rest of your life. ♫ Missing you like a horse rushing toward you ♫ ♫ We shall continue our fate in the next life ♫ ♫ Life is like a stage where we play our roles in haste ♫ ♫ It’s enough to be your confidant in this life ♫ ♫ Write a poem about the spring breeze to express my thoughts ♫ ♫ I hope you’ll like it ♫ [Jiajia’s Lovely Journey]
