In the old year in Shanghai, the wind and moon are ups and downs, and the fireworks in the city hide half a lifetime of love, hate and separation. The misty rain of the Republic of China was gentle and cool. It could accommodate the prosperity of the pear orchard and the sincere heart of a young man, but it could not tolerate the perfect relationship between a pair of ordinary people.
Su Yulan is like the white magnolia flower that blooms in the streets year after year. She was born pure and transparent. She was trapped in the quagmire of the world for half her life. She was patient and self-sufficient, gentle and kind. She suffered all the ups and downs, but she gave everything she had to help others. Lu Wenchen is a clean and pure young man in troubled times. He goes to love and love with sincerity and his heart is full of tenderness for one person. From the moment he first meets his heart, he ends up separated by life and death.
Their love is hidden in misunderstandings, hidden in fate and helplessness, and sealed in unsent letters. Rushing in both directions, forbearing in both directions, fulfilling in both directions, in the end there is only regret in both directions. Everyone in the world moves forward with the years and reconciles with the past, but only the affectionate people are trapped in old dreams, recalling them year after year and never forgetting them for life.
Flowers bloom for a certain period of time, and we are lucky to meet each other, but we have no chance to part ways. This is a gentle tragedy belonging to the old era, describing the purity of young heartbeat, the helplessness of being unable to control it, and the ultimate blank space of a long remaining life and endless lovesickness. The magnolia has fallen, the wind and the moon have become ruins, the mountains and rivers remain the same, and the rest of my life is empty to remember the longevity of the years.
Intention: The prejudices of the old world tear apart true love, and when love is fulfilled, only regrets remain for a lifetime.
