Knowledge of Mountains and Fields: Four Seasons of Wind in Linxi

Completed Tired of the roar of urban gears, Shen Zhiwei quit his glamorous job at the end of winter before the New Year, took his savings and exhaustion with him, and returned to his hometown - Linxi Village, surrounded by mountains in Shu. Pushing open the creaking wooden door of the old house, she was determined to record another life with her camera: remodeling the dusty ancestral house with her own hands, following the flow of the four seasons, and looking for the flavor of the mountains and fields—— The rhizomes under the mud ridges in the cold winter, the shepherd's purse and Qingming cakes on the field ridges in spring, the raspberries and wild sweet potatoes on the branches in midsummer, the golden prickly pears and bursting August melons on the treetops in late autumn... Under the lens, the richness of the molded tofu, the crispiness of the pickled sauerkraut, and the sun-dried black beans all become a pyrotechnic poem that heals people's hearts. Here, she reunited with Lin Ye. The silent and reserved boy in my memory has grown into a calm and reliable man over the years. He was an orphan in the village. He was raised by a kind old man. He looked after his grandparents and poured his wisdom and sweat into the land under his feet. He became a low-key and pragmatic ecological farmer. He silently helped her repair the leaky roof and handed her drying firewood; she quietly photographed his solid back in the field, recording the mystery of his farm cycle. Time passes quietly in the fragrance of Zheergen, the brewing of moldy tofu, and the red color of raspberries. Shen Zhiwei's videos gradually gain millions of attention, and Linye's farm has become a model for rural revitalization. There was no grand confession, only the warm ginger tea he handed her under the eaves, and the bamboo strips he tied up for her fence in the morning light. The phenological changes throughout the year witnessed the two people's tacit closeness. In the end, they chose to work side by side to cultivate their dreams in this land.
