YELLOW FLOWERS ON GREEN GRASS

Forget this game! Guys should play with knives and stones.

- You go there. I'll stay here. - Okay.

- Here? - One, two, three!

- Hey. Let's stop. - No, keep playing!

You think you're better than me?

Throw it right!

I give up.

Are you hurt, big brother?

There you go!

Are you all right, Tuong?

Damn it! You're bleeding!

- A lot? - No, but it looks disgusting.

I'll take you to Sung. Come on.

Why did you throw that stone? You said you were giving up.

This is called "false surrender".

To win you need clever tricks. It makes great generals.

Your tricks are great. I wasn't expecting it at all.

When you grow up, you'll be a great general for sure.

Little ingrates! Why did you skip sleep?

- Run away! Don't worry about me! - You...

What's that blood on you? Thieu!

You'll get a fair beating for this. Come here!

Do you want water, big brother?

Big brother?

- Don't bother your brother. Let him study. - Yes, mama.

Wake up! Wake up!

You see? It just showed up one day.

- So this is Little Uncle? - Of course!

- Why did you call him Small Uncle? - I said Little.

"Uncle" can tell the weather.

You think he can predict the weather?

That is why you were right about rain lately.

This afternoon it'll rain again. In the morning he gritted its teeth.

But it's all yellow. For sure it's not an enchanted frog. I know.

You should stop dreaming about princesses or you'll become a prince.

Do princesses really exist?

I don't know.

Here, food.

Hey! He's running away!

Don't worry. He'll come back.

His home is here. Wherever you go, you always come home, don't you?

You read so many books that you're starting to sound like one.

- Tuong, take this to Aunt Sau. - Yes, mama.

I'm off to school, Mom.

The king forbade the princess...

to have any contact with the outside world.

Her only friend was the white tiger.

Tigar had a valuable fur, white as snow.

All hunters in the village wanted it for themselves.

One day the hunters managed to catch the tiger.

When the princess heard, she got very sick.

In the meantime, the tiger escaped before he was skinned.

But when he came to the princess, she had already died.

Tigar was devastated and hid deep in the forest near our village,

so he could study witchcraft and become a demonic tiger.

After that he thought of a plan to take revenge on the hunters.

There are rumors that the tiger used witchcraft to capture...

the princess' spirit in a dead tree here in our village.

So that every day he can talk to her.

Is that the dead tree near our village?

Therefore you must never go there, okay?

Poor Princess!

Poor devil! Now I'm all goose bumps.

Demon! Demonic Tiger!

- What happens? - Uncle Dan is trying to scare us.

What is it, Dan? You think that's funny?

I'll break your legs!

I already lost a hand. Now you'll break my legs?

You think I'm playing? Bad, bad!

Thieu, go get some peanuts. Lac is coming for a drink.

Yes... I'll get some... Where, Dad?

- At Man, of course. - But... it's already dark.

Dark? The moon is shining. Are you afraid of ghosts?

Take the stick with you. If you encounter a ghost, beat it. Okay?

Yes, Dad.

- You're coming with me, right? - Yes.

Don't look! Don't look at the tree!

What is it?

Beware of the demonic tiger.

- Shit! - What is it?

I should do something for uncle Dan.

I totally forgot. I have to go.

- You're gonna leave me here alone? - What else?

I have to go in the opposite direction.

- But where are you going? - Uncle Dan won't let me tell anyone.

You go and buy peanuts. Meet me at the tamarind tree.

You must come with me, or I'll never talk to you.

Not for long, as always.

I have to go. I have to go or Dad will beat me.

Tuong! Tuong!

Man, I need peanuts.

Why is your face that pale?

- I'm exhausted from running. - Why did you run?

I was in a hurry.

Hey, Man... I passed by your shed... I think I heard...

Nonsense! There's nobody there. Probably you heard your heart pounding.

Yes.

But why are you sitting there looking sad?

I'm drying my face.

You're drying your face? Did you cry?

I got a spanking.

Vinh! Vinh!

What is it, Tuong?

- Did you come for chili? - Yes.

Tuong again?

Yes, Dad. I gave him some chili.

Why does he always needs chili?

Let's go!

Why are Uncle Dan and Vinh so close?

Don't you remember how he played the harmonica in front of her house every night?

- Well, yes... I remember. - That's him flirting.

What are you doing?

I'm drying my fingers.

Uncle Dan says he has circles on the fingers of his hands.

When you have perfect circles, you can better draw and write.

- You let the wind dry your fingers? - No.

What do you do when your hands get wet?

I wipe them on my pants.

Who would do that? Do you have perfect circles?

Probably not. I'm not smart and don't draw well.

Would I have them?

What are you doing?

Well... Since my uncle told me about the circles on fingers,

I got into the habit to look at everyone's hands.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

- You have ten perfect circles! - Really?

Check it again!

Vinh! Vinh!

Looking for Vinh?

My mother needs... chil-lim....

What is "chil-lim"?

- You silly ass. - I got nervous when I saw him.

I couldn't decide for chili or lime, so I blurted out both.

How many times have you been "Pigeon", Tuong?

Often. About ten times.

And every time you asked for chili?

No. Uncle Dan is smart. He told me to vary.

Sometimes I ask for chili, Sometimes lime.

Sometimes fish sauce, sometimes soy sauce.

Or even medicinal oil when my stomach hurts.

When your stomach hurts?

I had to invent things like that.

You delivered many letters for them.

Have you ever opened one to see what it says?

- Yes. One time. - What did it say?

- I think it was a song. - What song?

I don't know. I only remember two lines.

Tell me.

"Life's hardship is like ill weather,

I suffer of love because I love you."

It's a long song. That's all I remember.

Two lines are enough. You should sleep.

Can you recite these lines again?

- Why? - Just recite them.

"Life's hardship is like ill weather,

I suffer of love because I love you."

Why are you laughing?

There is no point hiding. I've read everything

You want me to give this letter to Man, right?

Come, I'll give it to her

- Give it! - I'll give it to her!!

- Give me all your marbles. - Why?

Postage.

Hurry up!

- This is for you. - What is it?

Who knows? Ask him.

Students, attention!

What's that noise?

What are you hiding, Man?

- What's that? - Thieu sent it to me.

Back to your seat.

Thieu! Come here!

Suffer from love? From love?

Is that what you've been taught? You suffer from love?

Why are you calling me here?

To apologize. I didn't know you'd be punished.

The hell you're sorry! Why did you give him my letter?

It was just a song.

Well... Did you understand what it means?

How could I understand it?

Stupid! Stupid child!

Tuong!

- Who were you talking to? - It's a secret.

- Yeah, really! - I'm serious.

I promised not to tell anyone.

I'm your brother. You can tell me.

You're right, maybe it's okay. Big brother...

- I talked to the princess. - Are you crazy?

You and your stories! Go home.

I'm going to Man to buy fish sauce.

Why don't you sleep, big brother?

Mind your own business. Go back to sleep.

- Are you sleeping, Tuong? - You just told me to sleep.

I don't know if I should tell you this or not...

Does it matter?

I swore I won't tell anyone.

But I guess I can tell you.

That's right. I'm your brother. Tell me.

Let me go! I'll tell everyone it was a burglar.

Keep your voice down. There's no burglar.

Do you remember when Man's dad accidentally cut your ear?

Sure. I was bleeding a lot.

After that I'm no longer going there for a haircut.

I heard he suddenly closed the barbershop.

He went to the city for treatment.

My dad actually never went to town.

All the while he was living in the shed.

My dad...

has leprosy.

I did the maths assignments. You can copy the answers.

Why are you so nice to me lately?

I've always been nice to you. You're just too stupid to...

Too stupid to see it?

I didn't mean it like that.

I don't know why... Lately I just want to hang out with you.

I always liked to hang out with you.

Do you like Man?

- Yes. So what? - Why do you like her?

- I like whoever I want. None of your business. - Like hell it is.

- Leave Man alone. - You're crazy!

If you agree, I'll return your marbles.

- I don't want the marbles. - You want this?

But... You said you like little Ba.

Little Ba, or little Man... what does it matter?

Asshole! Jerks like you have no chance with her.

Jerk yourself!

And now? Do I have a chance now?

Go to hell, you asshole!

Big brother!

- Avenge yourself! - How am I going to do that?

Beat him up!

- Right. - Don't worry.

We may not have the strenght, but we have a trick!

Son!

- What do you want? - Come out.

- Why? - I have something to tell you.

- What's it? - Something serious. Come with me.

- Where to? - The buffalo stables.

Okay. I'm not afraid of you.

What are you doing here?

Beat him, big brother! Beat him!

Hit him now, he can't see!

- That's enough, Tuong. Let him go. - Do you know what this is, Son?

Don't do something stupid, Tuong! If you stab me, you'll go to jail.

From now on you leave my brother alone. Is that clear?

- Okay! - Get lost!

Tuong! Are you crazy?

- What if that knife killed him? - What knife? This?

You are cool! Here. Let's go home.

Hey, Man! Your house is on fire!

Hurry up!

- Take the kids home. - Okay.

Big brother... The shed is burning.

What about Man's dad?

Is that you, Thieu?

Yes, mama!

- Why aren't you in school? - I want to help Man.

Go home. I'm almost done.

- I just want to... - Don't argue with me. Go take a bath and have dinner,

and come back tonight to help Man to guard the house.

Okay. But where is her mother?

She went to town to do something urgently.

Anyway, hurry home, then bring food for Man.

Yes, mama.

Here you go. My mother prepared this for you.

I'm not hungry.

How did the shed catch fire? You didn't cook there.

- And your dad didn't smoke. - But we had the altar.

With a lamp on top.

And your mother is strange. She went to the city, and everything is a mess.

She went to look for my dad.

Your dad is still alive?

It'll rain soon. Let's go inside.

Did you have a nightmare, Thieu?

I dreamed that your dad returned and tried to cut my hair.

You can't sleep either?

I'm afraid to sleep in my room alone.

Can't you sleep here?

I'm afraid to sleep alone.

House for sale

I feel sorry about Man and her mother.

They need money and have to immediately sell the house.

It'll be fun. You're going to live with us.

You can play with Little Uncle.

- What does Little Uncle like to eat? - Flies, worms... Sometimes rice.

- Rice? - Yes.

- Did the scholar marry the princess? - Sure.

Finally he became her prince...

and they lived happily ever after.

I want to be a princess.

You can be the princess, I'll be your prince.

Here you can sit out of Susis face.

Mom's not here to spank me. So why do we need it?

Hey, Man! Man!

Your mother will return to take you to town.

Seriously? And my dad?

She's returning only because she found him.

I heard that she saw him in the hospital.

After examination the doctor said it's just psoriasis, not leprosy.

As soon as your mother finds a place to live, they'll come for you.

Man, I'm so happy for you!

I am so happy! Soon I'll see my parents!

Yes. That's great.

A fish! Big brother, I caught it!

I have a good book. Do you want to read it?

Collection of love poems

I don't like to read such things. I already have a lot of books at home.

Do you want to go hunt worms with me and Man?

Yesterday it rained, there definitely will be many.

- Why? - Come on, Thieu. It will be fun.

Doesn't sound like fun.

You can stay at home, I'll catch big bugs. Come on, Man.

- Thieu! Is your dad home? - No.

- Where's your mom? - She went to work in the field.

- Do you have a kettle for herbs? - I don't know.

It's okay, I'll look in the kitchen.

I bought medicine for my grandson Jua.

A frog!

Just my luck! I asked for it and here it is!

- Mr. Nam! - Yes?

Oh, nothing.

- Well then. Bye. - Yes.

We caught a lot of worms for Little Uncle.

- It'll take him three days to eat them. - Okay.

There were no bugs. I brought you a large shell.

You can hear the ocean.

Leave it here. I need to learn.

Okay.

Little Uncle, I have food for you. Where are you?

Little Uncle? Where are you, Little Uncle?

Man, have you seen Little Uncle?

- Did you see Little Uncle? - He was just there.

Where is he now?

Obviously he hid in the cave.

No. Man and I pushed the stick in and he's gone.

Don't be sad. I know he'll be back.

No! He won't.

How do you know?

I just saw Jua.

He says his grandfather caught a frog at our place...

He cooked frog soup!

If I hadn't gone out to look for worms,

he wouldn't have killed him, cut him up and eaten him!

Hurry up, Man! It's dripping on the floor!

Tuong!

Have some more, children.

That's enough! Go home.

Just a few. Come on, Thieu!

Thieu! Man!

I found this in the sand!

This is gold! People, this is gold!

- Really? - Yeah, it's real gold!

Son showed me his dad's gold nugget, but it was tiny!

- Is this worth a lot? - Yes! A lot!

- One million VND? - No! More than that!

- Are we no longer poor? - Not only that. We're rich.

I'll tell Mom to build house bigger than Shawn's.

- I buy a car! His family has none. - We can!

- Mom! - What are you kids doing there?

We'll be rich, Mom! Ask Thieu!

What's going on?

We were looking for shells and Tuong found a big gold nugget.

What kind of gold?

Here you go, Mom.

This is a copper, not gold. We can't sell this.

- Copper? - Yes.

Thieu! Thieu!

- Give it back! - You already got one.

This is for Tuong and Man. If you don't give it back, I'll beat you!

Really? Go ahead!

Try a chicken leg. It smells good.

- Take the chicken. Dip it in pepper. - Yummy, it's delicious.

Take another chicken wing. Yummy!

It's good!

Hurry up and eat before big brother gets back.

Thieu! Why did you hit him?!

- Eating behind my back! - Eating what?

Chicken, that's what!

We were playing.

- Are you all right, Tuong? - It hurts!

Don't!

- Stay here with him. I'll get Mom and Dad! - Big brother!

Don't tell dad that you hit me.

Tell him that I fell from the tree.

I suggest you take him to the hospital.

- I'm going now. - Thank you.

If you weren't already wounded, I would hit you!

- Was this your idea? - No, it's not! It's not.

The doctor couldn't help. I'm going to find someone who can.

But we have nothing more to sell.

- Are you leaving tomorrow? - Yes.

You must hate me, don't you?

- You two stay here till we're all in. - Okay.

Come visit me and Tuong.

How do you feel, Tuong?

Slightly better. But I'm bored just lying in one place.

You can sit up?

Yes, just now.

The princess visited me. And suddenly I can sit up.

What princess?

She's really beautiful. She was wearing a silver dress.

She stood by the window and talked with me while you were asleep.

What did she say?

"My prince..."

She chose you for her prince. Soon you will be crowned.

Then you'll become the supreme general, as in fairy tales.

The princess was just like the one in "Enchanted frog".

You know what, let's go out.

You're tired, aren't you?

We're almost there.

Tuong!

- How could you stand? - Surely because of the princess.

If I tell Mom, you'll end up in a mental institution!

- You and your princess! - It's true! She was just here.

She told me to come to the window to give me a gift.

And I could get up.

If you don't believe me, look!

Princess Nhi, why didn't you listen?

I put you in isolation. Without my permission,

you can't set foot outside. Is that clear?

Yes, Your Majesty.

Don't tell His Majesty I took these flowers.

If he finds out, he'll punish me terribly.

He doesn't let me go see my prince. What am I going to do now?

I must go on marking the path with these flowers.

Thus, the prince will be able to find me.

But it has to be a secret, okay?

Who dares to enter my kingdom?

- Mr. Tam? - No, Mr. Darkness!

Did you come to cause trouble? I'll show you no mercy!

Come have dinner with us. Let him rest.

Dad. Do you remember Mr. Tam?

Why do you mention him now?

Because you took us to see him...

and his circus with the flying motorbikes.

But I saw him run off more than a year ago.

You know how circuses are. Constantly traveling from city to city.

But why do you care? We have enough problems of our own.

I know...

Thieu.

Why did you suddenly mention Mr. Tam?

In the afternoon I saw him in the woods behind a dead tree.

How dare you go there?

But why are you and dad so afraid when I mention his name?

Apparently he and his daughter suddenly went mad...

and hid in the woods.

They live in the forest. Aren't they afraid of the demonic tiger?

There is no demonic tiger. The grown-ups in our village...

feared that children would meet Tam and his daughter,

so they made up stories Don't you go into the woods.

Who dares to enter my kingdom?

- I'll chop your head off! - It's me, Mr. Tam.

We were living happily.

We were a little late in deciding to have children.

She was the greatest gift that we ever obtained from the Lord.

The Flying Motorbike circus bids you welcome

Courageous Superman Unique

Since then she's mourning her mother.

She pretended to be a princess.

And I pretended I was crazy,

just to make her happy.

Why aren't you sleeping?

Obviously something happened to the princess.

Nothing happened!

Then why doesn't she visit?

She must be busy. She'll visit you when she got time.

Tuong!

Tuong!

Are you crazy? If dad finds out, you'll get a beating!

But I'm a cripple. Don't make him hit you.

That's right. He'll beat me instead of you.

I can walk, big brother.

Tell you what... What if I take you to visit the princess?

- Seriously? - But not today.

You'll have a few days to practice to walk straight.

Okay.

Easy.

Once upon a time, in a small village, lived a young scholar.

His only friend was an enchanted frog.

The enchanted frog followed the scholar everywhere.

At night the frog provided light using his magic pearl.

Are you tired?

- Not at all. - You're lying. Even I am tired.

Well, I'm just a little tired.

We're almost at the dead tree.

It's still quite far away. Let's go home.

Hey, crazy girl!

- Get away from me! - Hey, nutcase!

Go away! If you touch me, my father the King will put you in prison!

She's really crazy! She thinks she's a princess!

She almost cut me with her sword!

Get away from her! Leave her alone!

Wait, Tuong!

Are you okay, Princess?

Princess Nhi!

Princess Nhi!

Princess Nhi!

Reckless child!

Princess, how dare you leave the palace without permission?

I'm sorry, Dad.

Princess, how did you call me?

- Dad. - Princess Nhi...

I remember everything, Dad. You're my dad, not a king.

I am Nhi, not Princess Nhi.

Mr. Tam, now Nhi is cured.

Hey, Big brother.

Since I'm not a prince, do you think Nhi will even play with me?

Sure. I know for sure.

Seriously?

- Like you and Man? - What do you mean?

Man often told me that she likes to play with you.

If so, why was she always hanging around you?

She was probably shy.

Shy? She and I... What is there to be shy about?

I don't know. Why don't you ask?

I don't know when they'll return.

Big brother, did you ever read that book?

What book?

"Life's hardship is like ill weather,

I suffer of love because I love you."
