A girl returns to her hometown, grows vegetables in the yard, heals in time, reconciles with the past and reunites with her old love in ordinary daily life.
On the day he joined the company, Lin Qi pressed the first floor button in the elevator and never went up.
Check out the rental, send luggage, buy high-speed rail tickets. She sent a message to her parents in the car: "I resigned and came back to stay for a while." She didn't say "how long" because she didn't know.
She plowed a patch of ground in the backyard.
Growing vegetables is slow. Watering, weeding, waiting for the seeds to germinate, there is no rush. But during those slow daily routines, she suddenly found that she was willing to get up in the morning, and falling asleep was not that difficult. She began to feel that maybe she could survive without running so fast.
What she didn't expect was that there was a row of rosemary planted at the door of the restaurant in town that had no signboard.
What she didn't expect was that the man standing behind the bar kneading dough was Shen Xu.
Seven years ago, she said to him in the alley of this town: "We are not the same kind of people."
Seven years later, across the room filled with the smell of flour and sunlight, he said to her, "Long time no see."
This is a story about stopping, putting down roots, and the reunion of those who have been missed.
There is no golden finger, no counter-attack and slap in the face, just a pair of hands, a piece of land, a vegetable, a meal, and a person who is willing to wait.
