[A River Runs Through It]

[Episode 6: Our smallness and greatness, part II]

[3 days until the college entrance exam]

[Fighting for our dreams! / This is your final fight based on your abilities for your future! / Dear teachers, you have worked hard!]

Students, this is our last class meeting.

Normally in these meetings,

we would talk about grades,

but we won't do that today.

Let's talk about something else.

As your teacher, who spent the last three years of high school with everyone,

I've personally witnessed your efforts and hard work.

Of course, I have also witnessed your naughtiness and playfulness.

Many students say,

"It would have been better if our homeroom teacher was gentler and nicer."

I'll satisfy everyone.

Today I'll be gentle and nice for once.

These are all the things I have confiscated over the past three years.

You should remember and recognize these.

Hurry and come up to take them back.

What's wrong with all of you today?

Lu Shiyi.

Don't you normally fear nothing?

Most of the things here are yours.

Come up and take the lead.

What's wrong?

Have all of you become shy today?

That's right. I remember I confiscated your game machine,

but no matter how hard I looked, I couldn't find it.

Today, I want to apologize to you.

I failed to protect your personal items.

I'm sorry.

Teacher, that game machine...

I took it back myself previously.

I'm sorry.

You...

Little brat!

You are asking for a scolding!

Sit.

From all the students in this class,

the person who made me mad the most is you,

but I still always thought highly of you.

Students, graduation is not the end.

On the contrary, it's a new start.

I sincerely hope that in your life ahead,

when you're in a difficult situation, you can overcome the wind and waves to success.

When facing difficulty, to never give up!

You must learn to be grateful.

Be thankful for your parents.

Their love for you is endless.

You must also be thankful for yourselves.

The person you are today is because of the hard work you put in yesterday.

Let's not forget the school we came from

and meet again in society.

The college entrance exam is imminent.

I will only ask one thing.

Do you have confidence?

- Yes. - Yes.

Louder! I can't hear you.

- Yes! - Yes!

Very good.

Class dismissed.

Stand up!

♫ My heart is drifting looking for a dream that lost its way ♫

♫ I still sing, my strength and stubbornness will shine ♫

Goodbye, Teacher. Thank you, Teacher!

♫ The sun that uses the cleansing rain will once again become crazy for me ♫

♫ Fly against the wind ♫

Jiashu, are you waiting for me?

Xiaoju, are you all ready?

The red shirt is a good choice. (TN: Red is thought to bring good luck.)

It's auspicious.

And the logo is a big checkmark!

When you're answering the questions, you're sure to get them right!

Your mom's right!

Sister, fighting!

- All right. - Check one more time!

Right, hurry and check.

Admission card, ID card.

- Pens. - Pencil, pens, and erasers.

All right, they're all here.

And this. Hurry.

- All right. - Good.

- I'm leaving. - Bye, Sister!

- Fighting, Sister! You'll get it all right! - Read it carefully!

Fighting! Fighting!

I'm so nervous.

All my hard work these past years

is for this day.

If we mess up, all of our hard work would've been in vain.

Mom, you really don't need to go. It's not the first time I am taking a test. [During College Entrance Exams, we'll be closed for three days.]

The College Entrance Exam isn't a normal exam.

It's fine if I don't do business. Let's go.

Mom, think about it.

If you go, I will get nervous while taking the test.

Isn't it?

All right. Do your very best.

Don't be nervous.

Also, don't be careless.

- I understand. - I believe in you.

You won't have any problems.

Don't worry, Mom. I'll go then.

Hold on.

Give me your hand.

Fighting!

Yes!

Then, Mom, hurry and go back.

I'm off. Wait for my return.

When you come back, I will cook something good for you.

Okay!

I'm begging you.

Hurry and go back. I'm already this old.

I don't need someone to send me to the exam.

It's embarrassing.

How is it embarrassing?

Don't ride the bike.

The two of us will take a taxi.

I must personally see you enter the testing site.

Cheng Lang, come take a taxi with us.

It's okay, Uncle Lu. I'll go by bike.

- See you there. - See you.

Let's go.

- During the exam, read the questions carefully. - I know!

Read the questions in detail.

Stop holding me.

- Don't rush to answer. - Okay! I get it!

Read the questions clearly.

Stop talking, I know!

Xiaoju, why are you crouching here?

Why are you here, Dad?

I was worried after you left, so I came to see you off.

What's wrong?

Dad, my stomach hurts.

Stomach? Weren't you fine at home just now?

I don't know. It might be because of the garlic juice.

This... This is so...

Dad, let's hurry and go.

- I need to take the exam. - Listen to me. Sit here.

Here.

Let me ask you, can you persevere through?

- I can. - Okay.

Wait for me here.

There's a pharmacy up ahead. I'll go buy some medicine for you.

Dad, then go quickly.

All right, wait here.

Hang in there.

Dad, go quickly!

Come on. Hurry!

Hurry, we're about to be late.

Wait for me!

Stop dawdling! Hurry!

- Xiaoju! - Dad.

Here. Take it three times a day.

Is it hot?

Dad, let's hurry and go!

Here!

Dad. Dad.

Dad! Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Get up, Dad.

Dad.

Get up, Dad.

Help!

Anyone?

Help!

Is there anyone?

Dad.

Don't cry, little girl.

Don't cry.

Your dad will be fine.

Your dad will be fine.

I'm here.

Get up, Dad.

Get up, Dad!

Uncle? Uncle?

Dad.

Dad! Dad!

Hello, 120? We have a car accident here! (T/N: First-aid ambulance number)

There are two people seriously injured.

Chunxi Road. Chunxi Road. The crossroad of Chunxi Road.

Hurry!

Dad.

Little girl, don't cry!

- Brother, please help my Dad! - Your Dad will be fine.

I'll get you some candies. Don't cry.

I'm here!

Help my dad!

Get up, Dad.

[Admission Card: Cheng Lang]

Dad.

The college entrance exam is imminent,

I will only ask one thing.

Do you have confidence?

- Yes! - Yes!

Get up, Dad.

Take the candies. Take care of your dad.

Uncle, hang in there.

Let me see. Let me see.

This one is all right.

Where's your ID card? Did you bring your ID card?

Okay.

Is your ID card with you?

- I have them! - All right. No need to look.

ID card. Pen?

All right, Dad. I'm going in.

- You can head back. - Go ahead. I'll wait here for you.

Do as you want.

Xia Xiaoju?

- Xiaoju? What happened? - Uncle.

Her stomach started hurting all of a sudden.

Stomachache?

How are you feeling now?

I just took some medicine, so I feel much better now.

I want to take her to the hospital, but she insists on taking the exam.

Look at this child. You...

Shiyi is here. He'll send her in.

- It'll be okay. - That's right, Uncle.

Then I will leave Xiaoju in your hands.

Don't worry, Uncle Xia. I'll accompany her to her room first.

If you still feel uncomfortable once you are inside, tell the teacher proctoring

that I'm waiting for you by the door. All right?

- Stop nagging her. - I got it, Dad.

Please take care of her!

- Goodbye, Uncle. - Goodbye, Dad.

I'm off, Dad. Bye.

Look through the questions carefully!

Take care of her. - Xiaoju!

- Teacher Zhang? - Teacher Zhang?

Why are you here?

You don't have to care about why I'm here.

- Did you bring your admission card? Let me see. - We brought it.

- Here. - Here.

ID card?

Yours?

Okay, remember.

Stay composed and calm. Fighting!

Check your answers! Do you hear me?

Go then.

Bye, Teacher.

You won't have any problems.

Fighting! Fighting!

Bye, Teacher!

Mr. Zhang.

- You've worked hard. - It's nothing.

Hopefully, they can get a good test score.

Dad! Dad! Wake up, please!

Dad!

I'll now read items aloud to take notice when testing.

First, check your exam papers carefully. [Please do not make any noise!]

If there are blank or missing pages,

please raise your hand to explain the situation and have your papers changed. [College Entrance Exam, 55th test site; Subjects: Science and Engineering]

Second, you must use a black pen or rollerball pen [Admission Card: Xia Xiaoju]

to write on the top-left corner of the answer sheet.

Write your name, test site number, and seat number

Have you seen Cheng Lang?

I saw Cheng Lang riding his bike early this morning.

How come I haven't seen him?

I sincerely hope

when you're in a difficult situation, you can overcome the wind and waves to success.

When facing difficulty, to never give up!

The exam starts now.

[Student Number: 33]

Cheng Lang! Cheng Lang!

Cheng Lang! Slow down!

Cheng Lang!

Let him in!

Time's up. He can't come in!

Just let him in!

- It has been difficult for him! - Time's up.

- He can't come in! - Let him in!

Let the boy in!

Cheng Lang!

He has an exam to take!

Be careful, Cheng Lang!

Let him in! What's the situation?

[Admission Card: Cheng Lang]

It's already 9:30 a.m. now.

The exam started thirty minutes ago. He definitely can't get in.

Teacher, this child was delayed since he acted heroically.

That's why he's late.

We are witnesses.

There are regulations on what time students are allowed in.

Could you make an exception?

You know that this exam is the most important in his life.

Could you make an exception?

I really can't.

Teacher, let me tell you the truth.

Do you know how difficult it has been for him?

He lost his father at a young age,

but he is an excellent student.

He is the hope of our entire school and even our whole community.

- So could you... - I understand how you are feeling,

But a rule is a rule.

What rule?

Aren't rules made by people?

You're totally unreasonable!

Cheng Lang, let's go! I'll take you in. Let me see who dares stop me.

- Lao Xia. - Lao Xia, don't!

- Don't! - There's no use in talking to him!

- He's unreasonable! - Don't be impulsive!

- It's not that he's unreasonable... - I'm telling you!

You can't cause a disturbance here.

If you disrupt the other students, you'll have to take legal responsibility.

Don't try to scare me! I'll take all legal responsibility.

- Let's go, Cheng Lang! - Don't, Lao Xia.

- Listen to him! - He's being unreasonable!

Uncle Xia. Uncle Lu.

The way you're acting won't work. Just forget it.

- D-Don't be angry. - It's fine.

- Cheng Lang. - Teacher.

Don't be too anxious.

Right now, what's most important is to do well on the following exams.

Based on your grades, you'll have no problem getting into a top university.

I'm sorry, Teacher.

Come, listen to me.

When have you ever had such a large temper?

[During College Entrance Exams, we'll be closed for three days.]

Mom, I'm back.

Come on.

Let's go. I'll cook you some food.

[Guang Hui Hair Salon]

You can't leave me and your son like this!

What are we, a widow and child, supposed to do?

Qihua! Open your eyes! Look at me!

Look at me!

Look at your son!

Lang Lang! Call your dad!

Wake him up!

Call dad!

Dad! Dad! Wake up!

Mom.

I'm sorry.

You did nothing wrong.

If you miss the exam, you still have a chance to retake it.

But if a life is gone, that family might not be able to live on.

Eat some more.

Take a rest after eating. You still have an exam this afternoon.

[Guang Hui Hair Salon]

Are you ready?

The past is in the past.

Let's do our best for the next exams.

Give it all you got.

I believe in you.

I know.

Don't worry, Sister Ding.

We promise to accompany Cheng Lang to the exam site.

That's right. Let them go with him.

We can cook something good for the kids at home.

Don't worry, Wanfang.

Mom, I'm leaving.

Wanfang, it'll be fine with the two of them going along.

You can rest assured.

All right. Let's go back.

No.

I'd be worried waiting at home.

I should go.

Wait for me!

She will worry if she's at home. Let her go.

- Mom. - Are you coming, too?

I won't be able to sit still at home anyway.

Let's go. I'll go with you.

Chinese, 125.

Math, 135.

English, 115.

Comprehensive science, 200.

English, 120.

No way!

What's the total amount of points?

750.

Louder.

750.

It can't be!

It said her score is 520.

I checked it again.

It is 520.

Xiaoju, you couldn't have done so well.

You couldn't have done so.

520!

My Jiangzhou University!

Jiashu! I did it!

Our Xiaoju can go to college!

The first college student in our Xia family!

That's great!

Isn't that great?

Le Tao, don't be sad.

With your scores, you can still be an undergraduate.

Look at me.

I don't even have the qualifications to go to college.

I wonder how is Cheng Lang doing.

Lu Shiyi, don't you have the best relationship with Cheng Lang?

You have to comfort him.

That's right. You should go visit him often.

I called him today, but he didn't come.

That's right. You should go over to his house if you aren't busy.

All right, enough.

Do you really think Cheng Lang is that weak?

You look too down on him.

Here. Today Cheng Lang is absent.

I'll make a toast on his behalf.

Everyone, together!

- Here. - Here.

I want to say a few words.

My grades aren't good,

but...

I cherish each one of you here.

Thank you, everyone

for being together the past three years.

I really appreciate every single one of you.

I...

can't bear to part ways with any of you.

I...

Baobao.

You're not going to cry, are you?

No, I...

I just hate to part ways with everyone.

- I... - All right. Stop being so sentimental.

I also can't bear to part with everyone.

Baobao.

Look at how sad you made everyone.

Cheer up! Cheer up!

Okay?

How am I sad?

Anyway, Xia Xiaoju.

I was really surprised that

you got into Jiangzhou University!

Was it the Mr. Confucius your parents found you super effective?

When you mention him, I get angry!

He's just a liar.

What effect?

I just so happen to have this newspaper with me.

Look. [Scammer Arrested for Cheating Money by Pretending to be a Confucius Descendant]

See?

Pass it on to see.

That Mr. Confucius

tricked me into drinking so much garlic juice.

He caused me a stomachache the morning of the exam.

If it wasn't for my upset stomach,

I feel I could have done even better!

Weren't there walnuts added into the garlic juice?

Based on my guess, if it weren't for those walnuts,

you wouldn't have even made it to college!

Everyone knows what's your brain like, right?

With so many classmates here,

give me some face, all right?

That's more like it.

Everyone should be happy.

Like me. I also failed,

but I'm still happy.

At worst, I can just study again for another year, right?

Then you must work hard!

Here. A toast for those of us that failed.

And me! Don't forget me.

Here. How about this?

Let's have a toast together.

Let's wish those three that are studying for another year

to get into the college they want to next year.

Hope it all goes successfully, fighting!

Fighting!

I don't want to see them ever again.

All right, leave it to us. Take a break.

Listen to your mom.

Your task in the next few days

is to rest and play. Rest and play.

I have an idea.

How about we have a party?

No problem!

How long has it been since our Xia family had something worth celebrating for?

Let's not celebrate.

Even after skipping an exam,

Cheng Lang's grade is higher than mine.

Let's not celebrate.

It's such a shame for Cheng Lang.

That's right.

Even though his mom acts like she doesn't care in front of her son,

when she talks with us, she is very upset.

She keeps blaming herself,

saying she should have gone along with Cheng Lang to the exam.

It's really a shame.

Xiaoju. Look.

Cheng Lang helped you out a lot when preparing for the exam.

You have to think of a way to talk sense into him.

How is she able to talk sense into someone?

Besides, what principles doesn't Cheng Lang know?

Right now, what's important is to cheer him up.

Make him happy.

How could we make Cheng Lang happy?

Make him happy?

That child.

[Guanghui Hair Salon]

How could I make Cheng Lang happy?
