"Nian Qu Qu Qu" is a side story (well, the main text does not have a side story first), it is a separate chapter with another protagonist.
It is a story recorded by Lan Zhou, the protagonist of "Nian Qu Qu Qu".
"In the early days, she would carry a bamboo stool to wait by the empty stage every day. My grandfather could only forcefully drag her home. She cried all the way to the village."
"Then what can be done? If the person is gone, he is gone. The remaining ones still have to live, what can be done?"
"My grandfather recited 'Linhua Gone' to her every day. Later, he asked my father to read it to her and me to read it to her. They always thought that this way she would wake up. Just wake up. They don't want her to get married or move out. Just wake up."
"I feel bad, and I don't know what's wrong."
"So I changed what grandpa read and I read the lyrics to her."
"The forest flowers have withered——"
Intention: When people are gone, they are gone. The rest still have to live, what can be done?
