As firecrackers ring out, the old year passes; the spring breeze brings warmth to the Tusu wine. At dawn, sunlight shines on every household, and new peachwood charms replace the old. In a small town with simple, honest customs stands an ancient well that is over a hundred years old. Every year, the town holds a New Year ceremony to honor the well. The elders say a well-dwelling boy lives inside. He can bring blessings to the home and keep its residents safe and healthy. A magical night market beneath the sea, and the kind Lady of the East Sea. By the edge of the Cloud Pool stands a boy with fine brows and long eyes, dressed in a festive golden-orange outfit. Shuangshuang points at him. "Hey, are you the carp from our family?" The boy looks at her with a beaming smile and calls, "Shuangshuang." Theme:
