A rain during the plum rainy season in the south of the Yangtze River reunited Su Wan and Lu Shiyan, who had been separated for ten years, under the locust tree in an old alley. He returned with the silver plum blossom hairpin she had given him back then, and with the words "return it to its original owner", he revealed the unspoken love between the two of them when they were teenagers.
At that time, Su Wan had already made an engagement in Peiping. The well-matched Mr. Zhang was kind and polite, and the wedding was approaching. But Lu Shiyan's appearance was like a thunder in the rain and fog, disturbing her peaceful mood. The silence under the paper umbrella in the old alley, the traces of time on the silver hairpin, and the fragments of memories under the pomegranate flowers all tell the story of a first relationship buried by time.
On one side is the stable life that has been destined for a long time, and on the other side is the echo of the heart that has been delayed for ten years. When the embroidery materials for wedding dresses in Peiping meet the mist and rain of the old alleys in Jiangnan, when the blessing of "Happy Wedding" meets the alienation that cannot be hidden in the eyes, this fate that began in childhood will eventually end up in a "destiny" that has already been written in the pull of reality and memories.
