No. 33, Huaishu Lane

Escaped from the hustle and bustle of the city, Su Qing returned to the Jiangnan town in her memories and inherited the old house left by her grandmother - No. 33 Huaishu Lane. She originally wanted to seek temporary peace here, but she was forced to get involved in the trivial and lively life in the alley. There is the sharp gaze of Aunt Chen, the proprietress of the grocery store, and the thoughtfulness hidden under the rules. There is the craftsmanship of Old Master Zhou who uses a pair of skillful hands to turn old things into magical things. There is also the tenderness of Grandma Wang who quietly handed over a bouquet of gardenias in a silent place. Amidst the sound of electric drills and the smoke of neighbors' quarrels, and the comfort brought by a bowl of sweet wine and an old bamboo frame, Su Qing clumsily learned to get along with this group of "familiar strangers." Until she found her grandmother's dusty diary in the attic of her old house... The yellowed pages revealed an unknown past event. It turns out that under the calm water in this alley, there is deep love and protection that spans half a century. And her return is not accidental, but inevitable due to fate and blood. When the alienation of modern life collides with the density of traditional neighborhoods, how will she solve the mystery of the past and find her true way back between her hometown and a foreign land? "No. 33, Huaishu Lane" - a warm fable written for contemporary wanderers, telling the story of rediscovering life and settling one's heart in a square alley.
