Two girls, Xiao Wei and another Xiao Wei, were abandoned at the door of the town health center. They grew up together in the orphanage. They lay on the window sill looking at the old locust tree, buried mung bean seedlings under the wall, and promised never to separate. But one summer, someone came to adopt a child. The nine-year-old sister chose to be taken away on behalf of her sick sister, leaving a note.
During the fourteen years, my sister stayed in the orphanage and painted countless paintings of old locust trees. She grew up while waiting, left, was admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts, and worked as a cleaner to make a living. My sister became a doctor in her new family, but she was always entangled in the secret of her identity and loneliness. The two of them passed each other in the same hospital. One was pushing a cleaning cart and mopping the floor, while the other was wearing a white coat and walking by with his head held high. Until a piece of paper with an old locust tree drawn on it was stuffed into the crack of the door from a corner of the cleaning truck - the handwriting followed the branches of the tree fourteen years ago and accurately retrieved another person's name.
After they reunited, they discovered that their separation had a deeper secret - the adoption file had been altered, there was a secret about their life experience, and an anonymous report was tracing back to the past. They faced inheritance disputes and identity crises, and found their own directions through mutual support: one went to a mountain village to work as a grassroots doctor, and the other used a paintbrush to record their common memories. The story starts from the old locust tree, passes through the city, the mountainous area, and the letters that have been exchanged for decades, and finally stops next to the sweet-scented osmanthus tree they planted with their own hands - the person who was waiting finally got the person he was waiting for; the lost road was reconnected with roots under the same moonlight.
Intention: People who are separated will meet again at the root
