When he was fifteen years old, the world of his eldest brother Xiao Lei collapsed with the tragic news that his father passed away suddenly at a construction site in a foreign land. As the eldest son, he was forced to lose his immaturity overnight and carry the shaky home on his still thin shoulders. The thirteen-year-old brother Xiaomori turned his great sadness into sharp rebellion, using quarrels and escapes to fight against the injustice of fate. My mother returned from the city and spent ten years of hard work trying to heal the rift in the family.
However, growth is fraught with thorns. As adolescent brothers, torn between poverty and self-esteem, they once stabbed their beloved mother with the most hurtful words. When they finally understood their mother's silent dedication and tears, fate showed its fangs again - their mother became ill from overwork and passed away. The regret of "the child wants to be taken care of but cannot be cared for" has become an unhealable scar in their hearts.
Without their last support, the brothers became the only driftwood in each other's lives. One of them is rooted in the countryside like a "mountain", guarding memories and responsibilities; the other is running towards the city like a "sea", fighting in the rapids. Their relationship was once frozen due to different ideas, but when they were on the verge of despair, they discovered that the other party was already a part of them that they could not let go of. In the end, when a long-delayed text message among his father's belongings was revealed, all the helplessness and misunderstandings of youth were quietly resolved by the family love that is thicker than water. They finally understand that their parents' love has never left them, and they themselves have already become each other's most solid support in the wind and rain, and they have transformed this love that has gone through hardships into a force that warms others.
