The 2,489 ton ship Taiping

sets sail from Shanghai

with a crew of 124

508 paying passengers

300 non-paying passengers

100 tons of printing equipment from the Southeast Daily News

1,000 boxes of documents belonging to the Central Bank

200 crates of silver

and 600 tons of steel

Mr. Yuan

You can't load anymore

Taiping, overweight by 43 tons

collided with the cargo vessel Jianyuan

off the coast of Zhejiang Province

at a quarter to midnight

Taiping sank after forty-five minutes

Of close to one thousand passengers on board

only 34 were found by the Australian naval destroyer

HMAS Warramunga

How are you?

I am en route to Taiwan from Shanghai

In order to combine our photos

I had to spend quite a bit of time

But I am sure you will like it

It's been four years since the war ended

But till now I have yet to hear anything from you

I hope all is well

and I await your reply

Yifang

I don't want to go to Taiwan

I thought we already agreed

that I would join you after the war

Are you asking me to go because the war is going badly?

The Communists have already taken the north

If we lose the south

Shanghai will be in chaos

It's only when you're someplace safe

can I then concentrate on fighting

"KEELUNG PORT"

Stop

Papers?

Yan Zekun? Follow me

Did you report to police headquarters?

No

This is a person of interest

You spent time in Fengtian prisoner of war camp?

Yes

Are you tired?

Nope

Here, allow me

Did you wait long?

How was your trip to Shanghai?

Chaotic. A lot of student demonstrations and protests

Good thing I still managed to get the medicine

Let's get some fruits

How much are these?

Arresting Communists again

They always end up arresting students

So many people have lost their lives already

Taiwan is such a small place

How many Communists could there possibly be?

I feel so sorry for those students

Some of those taken away will never come back

I do not know...

Come, let's head back

Ready!

Zekun

Zekun, I heard that

you have returned safe to Keelung

I can finally put my heart at ease

But

I wish that you would write to me

Mother

Zekun is back

This house formerly belonged to a Japanese colonel

It was destroyed by the allies during the war

But it's been repaired

Yifang

Whenever I recall you helping me put on my shoe

I break out into laughter

But after laughing I feel a bit guilty

You are far away fighting a war

experiencing things I cannot even imagine

while I live carefree and without worry

Our new place has a big yard

I will plant

all of our orchids here

The child and I

will wait for your return

Now

I can finally have peace of mind

and write you a song

"TAIWANESE STUDENTS AGAINST COLONIZATION"

You are the only two men left in the family

Your eldest brother Zehan had lung problems

When the Japanese surrendered Taiwan to China

He shouted loudly

We've returned to the motherland

We're Chinese again

We're Chinese again

Taiwan is part of China again

We're Chinese again

We're Chinese again

Later

they accused him of being a Communist

and shot him

Your father

received a Japanese education

and we lived in a Japanese house

But when it came to taking a Japanese name

he absolutely refused

He became a doctor, hoping to do good

and yet, for no rhyme or reason

he was taken away by the police

Who knows what for?

At that time you weren't home

Mother

Zekun volunteered to take Zehan's place for the draft

It wasn't easy for him either

Your younger brother is my last hope

I don't want the same fate to befall him

You must keep a close watch on him

Anti-government organization?

Give it to me

Stop running!

Don't let him get away

Go...

Listen, this flower...

I have no idea what you're saying

- You're just stubborn! - Plant it inside

Give it to me! It's mine

What are you babbling about?

- It needs direct sunlight - Stop messing around

It will grow best...

You don't know anything

I don't understand you

- Where do you want it? - Stop arguing

What's going on?

Miss, she...

She talks in Taiwanese and then Japanese

No one can understand her

You... speak Mandarin

Miss

I'm telling him

Orchids need direct sunlight

That's how they grow best

But he keeps spouting nonsense

I said let's plant it here but he...

You wily old fox!

Give it back to me

Come get it yourself

- Come on - That's mine

Give me the flower

Miss! What happened

Miss

What the?

Mister, you must listen to the doctor

His prescription

There's another patient outside

Come with me

Zekun

Second uncle

I've brought a general's wife

Please give her the best treatment

Sure

Doctor

Madam

This is doctor Yan Zekun

My nephew

Zekun, this is Madam Lei

Do you feel any numbness?

No

It's not poisonous

It's not poisonous

It's okay, we'll reduce the swelling

Do you paint?

Why do you ask that?

I've seen your painting

It was signed by Zekun

in the year 1942

You said you saw my painting?

A girl playing piano amidst a field of silvergrass

Where did you see it?

In the piano room

a notebook was hidden behind the painting

Here it is

She also left behind an unfinished music score

The music is beautiful

She probably wrote it for someone she loved

I really like it

I'd like to finish it for her

How can I help you?

Please tell me something about her

Knowing how she felt

will help me compose better

Sorry

In my memory, there is only war and death

I can't recall much else

I believe that

this notebook will help you remember

We are often saddened by missed opportunities

Even though this is the wrong time to be in love

I still cannot forget

Your warmth and your every smile

His silence makes me afraid

Your every look

is so real

The draft notice arrived today

My elder brother has lung problems

and my younger brother is still a kid

it has been decided that I will go in their place

It was then that I realized

his silence

was due to his inability to control his own destiny

On Mother's side in Japan

all her male relatives

are dead

I'm a doctor

so I'll be fine

I'm going to save lives, not destroy them

That day

It was the day before he left

Don't go

Instead of giving ourselves to war

Why not instead

give ourselves to love

At that moment

I finally understood what it meant to be alive

We agreed that

when the war was over

In autumn

we'd come back to this field of silvergrass

We'd walk together

and watch the sunset together

I painted this picture

so I wouldn't forget that day

And she wrote this song

to remind herself not to forget either

That was the only time

I heard her play part of this song

Just a small part

She never thought that she'd leave

After Taiwan returned to China

the policy was that

not a single Japanese was to remain

When her family was repatriated to Japan

that year

I was still in a prisoner of war camp

Everyone thought I was dead

Maybe she thought I was dead too

No

Listening to this song

it feels as if

she's still waiting for you

Then why didn't she finish the song?

Can't continue with too much on my mind

I'll finish it when you come home

Waiting

is more painful than saying goodbye

Cops!

- Arrest them! - What are you doing

Hold on stand...

Hurry...

Thank you everyone for volunteering

The situation in Shanghai is critical

and the number of wounded is increasing

Here, we provide two meals a day

and that's it

Those who still want to volunteer can stay behind

Nurse

What are you looking at?

It's not the Yang Tianhu you're looking for

No one today is from the 7th division 9th brigade

Go get something to eat

The newspapers say

that the 7th division's 9th brigade is in Taiwan

Maybe your Yang Tianhu isn't here anymore

I must find a way to make some money

I want to buy a boat ticket

A boat ticket won't be cheap

I heard that

his name is on the 7th Army's list of wounded personnel

Most are bogus claims to obtain more rations

For each dead soldier

there are hundreds of living ones leeching off him

He's not that kind of person

Can you stop being so naive?

This is wartime

Soldiers come and go

sowing their wild oats all over the place

Who can remember who's been with who?

Only just you

You're nuts

Chasing him from Wuhan to Changsha

and now Shanghai

If he were still alive you'd have met ages ago

I believe he's still alive

He once told me that

if a person wants to stay alive

he will definitely find a way to do so

We grew up together in a small village

These past few years he's been off at war

and our village was destroyed

I've been fleeing and searching for him at the same time

We're both waiting for the war to end

He said

There are millions of people crawling around like ants

What are the chances that two people can meet?

He also said

that our destiny is determined by heaven

and can be undone by no man

When I volunteered as a nurse in the hospital

it was so that I could search for him

regardless of whether he is dead or alive

You believe him?

I do

But Yu Zhen

Have you considered

that even if you were reunited

You're no longer that village girl selling beancurd

But I'm still alive

Alive

I have connections in both Shanghai and Taipei

I can guarantee that none of your ships will sail empty

That's great Mr. Yuan

If you sever all ties with our rival the Zhongxing

everything is open to negotiation

Tickets for sale

Today it's six hundred and fifty thousand

Tomorrow it will be more

You gonna buy or not?

Next

Miss

Have you eaten yet?

Mister

Have you?

Three

Two

One

I really don't have a choice

I can't get family rations without this photo

Think of it as doing me a favor okay?

My name is Tong Daqing

What's yours?

It's not like this is for real

Just pick whatever suits your fancy

Well, hope to see you again

I have to wait for my unit here

Where are you headed?

Going to return the baby

This kid isn't yours?

You're looking to rent?

We don't rent to single women

Do you have your husband's photo?

Yes

Last month he came home to recuperate

We managed to take a photo

I lied about my wife

so I could get more rations

Actually, I'm not married at all

I've been so dishonest

and yet you still trust me so much

Give this to my wife

Don't screw up

General!

Is Yan Zekun at home?

He's on a house call

He didn't reported to police headquarters this month

Please ask him to come in and explain himself

Also, is Yan-Lin Meifang at home?

She's at work in the fish market

She's directly involved in Yan Zehan's case

Tell her to come to police headquarters as well

Let's go

Meifang, three pieces please

Zekun

Go and register your marriage with Meifang

Take care of the paperwork

Your sister-in-law and nephew

need a man to take care of them

If she remarries someone else

My grandson will take on someone else's name

You need to shoulder this responsibility for your brother

Is marrying her the only way to take care of her?

What are you saying?

Don't we need to ask her how she feels?

Are you saying that up till now

you're still hung up over that Japanese girl?

I haven't thought about getting married

You don't need to think about it

This matter is settled then

Thank you Mr. Wu

Madam Wang, Madam Zhang

You're getting better and better

Not at all, please come again

You're back

Hello Mr. Gu

Have you eaten yet?

Why don't you join us

No thanks

I've asked Nanny to help you pack up

This room

I am unable

to rent it to you anymore

And what do you do?

You're for sale

You went twice so you need to pay double

What are you doing

Get lost

You're obviously single

but claim you're married

Scram!

Whore!

Shameless

Get lost

What nerve to bring men back

What do you want?

You seem lost

I'm worried someone might take advantage of you

If the price is right I might consider it

Make an offer

Why don't you tell me your price?

since you're the one selling

You might not be able to afford it

Try me

This world is full of opportunities

If you don't try, how will you know?

I want a boat ticket

A boat ticket to Taiwan

That's it?

My goods are on that ship, headed for Taiwan

Getting a ticket is a piece of cake

We can go to your place

My place is out of the question

I think this place is pretty good

We agreed on a boat ticket

You think I don't know how much a hooker costs?

The price we agreed upon

was a boat ticket

Do you have any idea how much that costs?

Yesterday it was six hundred and fifty thousand

Today it's seven hundred and eighty five thousand

Even if I slept with all the men in Shanghai

I still wouldn't be able to afford a ticket

Just give me a ticket

since you have connections

I can let you have another go

I'm not that interested in you

You're out of your mind. A boat ticket?

Take it or leave it

Take back your money

Money isn't worth anything

I want a boat ticket

You promised me

Don't try this with me

or I'm going to call the cops on you

Let go!

You're shameless

You know why I took an interest to you?

I usually go for classy ladies

If all the dance halls in Shanghai weren't closed

you think I'd even look at crap like you?

I took pity on you

Thought you seemed pretty alright

I don't even know why I bother talking to a whore like you

You might have some kind of disease for all I know

You told me

if I don't try, how would I know?

I believed you

When I believe someone, I believe him wholeheartedly

Shouldn't it be that way?

I only want a boat ticket

I only want a boat ticket

Zeming

Zeming

Zeming

Zeming

Zeming

Mother

Mother

Mother

I must carry on father's work

and continue fighting for a better society

A new China is coming

When that day arrives

I'll come home

Why are you going to Shanghai?

I'm a doctor

I'm going to Shanghai to purchase medicine

Zeming

Zeming

Zeming

My mother's relatives

all died during the war

I eke out an existence by collecting scrap metal

Japan is a foreign place to me

I miss Keelung

I always imagine you by the sea

I wish the sea would take me back

Perhaps like this, we can meet once more

Each day as I face death

That I can still have someone to think of

is my greatest fortune

Madam, I regret to inform you of General Lei's passing

Please

This way, Madam Lei

Did your brother write back?

No

So

do you know his geography teacher?

No

General Lei's body was never found

His official status on record is "unknown"

That's exactly why

I must return to find him

On what grounds do you prevent me from leaving?

Why do you always go to Shanghai?

I go to Shanghai to purchase medicine

Please cooperate

and remain in Taiwan for the time being

Why?

Some soldiers in his unit defected to the enemy

We are still investigating

Who was Zeming in contact with in Shanghai?

I don't know

Did he take part in any political activities?

No

We are aware

that after the unit broke out

General Qiu committed suicide

and Deputy Commander Du was taken prisoner

But only General Lei is unaccounted for

You elder brother was a Communist

You were in the Imperial Japanese Army

Your younger brother has now fled to Shanghai

And you're saying you don't know anything

and haven't done anything?

We need to further investigate

all his communication with his family

Such as his letters, for example

My husband

would never surrender

I have not

None of you understand

If you keep turning like this

we're going to crash into a tree

You're like this orchid

Three years

It's still so beautiful

and strong

Wherever you plant it

it will grow beautifully

Yunfen

You have to let go

If you don't let go

your love for him will eventually become a burden

Ma

Have you never been afraid?

Ever since I can remember

China has been at war

First, the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Beijing

Then it was the warlords

That year, your grandmother, with bound feet

took her whole family

and fled from Tianjin to Shanghai

She was never afraid

She always asked

when there would finally be peace

Two of her sons died as revolutionaries

They had their heads cut off

Your grandmother personally went to claim their bodies

Yunfen

I'm not afraid of anything

except that you might lose courage

Ma

You're very brave too

Don't lose faith

Is that Zeming?

Mother

That's not him. That's someone else

Mother, don't worry

I'll bring Zeming back

Please take care of mother

I will, don't worry

Don't cry

Mother

Take your medicine

I'm leaving shortly

for Shanghai

Here

This is some medicine for the baby

If you have any problems

you can look up my mother and sister-in-law

Thank you

I saw you at police headquarters that day

Is there any news about General Lei?

"Status Unknown"

He's still under suspicion

So that's him

I've met him before

At the battle of Shenjiagou

I was captured and taken to his command tent

My doctor was blown to pieces

I hear you're a good doctor

Just have me walking by tomorrow

You're a Japanese soldier from Taiwan?

So what's your Japanese name?

I don't have a Japanese name

So what should I call you

Yan. Yan Zekun

Sorry

Looks like we misunderstand each other

In Taiwan we are second class citizens

When they started their war

we got dragged into it as well

I'm afraid I might have to amputate your leg

There's a bullet lodged inside your femur

and your whole leg is infected

If I do not amputate

If you dare to cut my leg off

I will shoot you

But like this

you will spend the rest of your life in pain

I cannot bear to lose my leg

Then I must trouble you

to put your gun away

I do not like to be treated like the enemy

He was very persistent

He demanded perfection from everything in life

My shoes are a size too small

and my feet hurt

No problem

My leg is not too good either

I met him at a dance

If it weren't for you

we wouldn't have met

It's fate then

Sadly

I now only have this unborn child

as the only

link between us

No matter how hard it is

you must have the child safely

As long as the child is here, he will be here

Yes, doctor

Let me show you something

Paper cranes represent your thoughts

Fold one

and it will convey your well wishes to him

I've finished the song

Have a seat

I'll play it for you

Now that the song is done

I feel free

I hope you can feel the same too

Peace, not war!

End hunger! Stop civil war!

Peace, not war!

Students

You are disrupting public order

I'm not leaving

I don't want to run anymore

Nanjing has given the orders to evacuate

It's almost impossible to get a boat ticket

but I managed to get two

If we leave, Nanny comes with us

Don't worry about me

I can go back home

It'll be fine

It's alright

It's okay

End hunger! Stop civil war!

Oppose Fascism!

Peace, not war!

Down with oppression! Oppose hunger!

I've been looking all over for you

Let's go

Why are you here?

My father says the situation in Shanghai is getting worse

We can't stay here any longer

He's asked us to go with him to Taiwan

You go

I can't go

Peace, not war!

End oppression! End hunger!

Peace, not war!

End oppression! End hunger!

Mr. Yuan

You can't load any more

The cargo hold is already full with your steel

The ship is seriously overloaded

Why, isn't it Mr. Wu the conductor?

You've come too

My wife and children went two days ago

They're waiting for me to join them for the New Year

Happy New Year

Let them come in

Uncle

You're finally here

Lechang and his wife are on their way

I've arranged for someone to receive them

I really envy you

I envy the relationship you have with General Lei

You have Zekun

It was my mother-in-law who made me marry him

I can understand

It's just that

I hope Zekun won't have to suffer anymore

What about yourself?

Don't you suffer as well?

I have nothing to complain about

Yunfen

What do you think of this dress?

Pretty?

It's great

You look gorgeous

Thank you

I'll wear this to meet your father

He likes this dress the most

The ship is already overloaded

It's overloaded

Injured soldiers get priority

Everyone please give way

Gentlemen

The ship is already full

Perhaps you can take your boys

to the foredeck, okay?

Yu Zhen

Yu Zhen

Yu Zhen

What brings you here?

Let me ask you

Do you still want to go to Taiwan?

Of course

Good

Then you better get going soon

Everyone says Shanghai won't last much longer

Take this boat ticket

How did you manage to get this?

My sugar daddy wants me

to join him in Taiwan as his mistress

I couldn't care less for that

I

I'm leaving with him

and going to Yunnan with General Li Mi's army

Yu Zhen

I sincerely hope

that you'll find that person

in Taiwan

The ship is setting sail soon, you'd better hurry

Here

Put this on

Remember

You must stay strong

and live on

I'm leaving now

Take good care

I will

Mister

Help me return this

I'm going

Going?

Thank you

Take care

Take down the deceased's unit and name

The deceased belongs to the

7th division 9th brigade 55th battalion 8th company

Yang Tianhu

We have tickets

I'm from General Staff Headquarters

Mama, where are we going?

To Taiwan

Why?

We're moving to a new house

Stop asking so many questions

Hold on to me and don't get lost

Is it here?

It's here alright

Excuse me

What's going on here?

This is the governor of Liaoning province

They decided to leave at the last minute

so it was a bit of a rush

We can all squeeze a little if you don't mind

Sure, It's alright

We need to recruit more people

Look, our schoolmates all over there

Zeming

It's okay, it's my brother

Come

Zenkun, why are you here?

How did you find me?

I figured if you came to Shanghai

you'd come to the student union headquarters

Did Mother ask you to come?

I came on my own

Zeming

Mother is sick

I can't go home with you

I understand

But she's in critical condition

Do you remember what Father once said

One must be like the nightingale

The darker the night

the sweeter its song

Father's ideals

all went unfulfilled

I believe that as long as we persevere

we can achieve all of those ideals

How many more lives must be sacrificed

Our eldest brother was...

His sacrifice was not in vain

Who else will fight for this society?

- Zeming - Zekun

You should do something meaningful as well

What do you mean?

You only care about your personal happiness

You're too selfish

and too weak

I'm not!

It's not that I don't want to live my own life

but when did I ever get the chance?

I'm not the brother you think I am

You don't understand the things I've had to do

I want you to know

that I have ideals too

They're for our family

Zeming

It's great to have ideals

I'm happy you found your mission in life

and can lead the life you want to lead

and do the things you want to do

But Zeming

Mother is really ill

So I'm begging you

to come home with me just this once

until she gets better, okay?

Tomorrow I'm going into the liberated zone

If you don't return now

after the New Year

everyone will know you are a Communist

Then, even if you want to go home

it won't be possible

Just come back with me first, okay?

Mama I'm scared

There's nothing to be scared of

We're together as a family

we don't have to fear anything

No need to worry

Everything will be fine

I'll go get some water

Stay put here

Yu Zhen

Sorry

- Mrs. Gu - Yu Zhen

I never thought

you'd be here as well

Where are the kids?

They're with their father

The whole family is here

That's great

Please help me take a look

I don't know where my bunk is

Here, come with me

Shut the gates! Don't let them in!

Why aren't there any tickets?

It's here

We're over there

Just holler if you need anything

What are you doing here?

Didn't think I'd eventually

still get the ticket from you

Where is Xia Shan?

She just got married

She doesn't want to be your mistress in Taiwan

Dumb bitch

She'll regret it

Stop!

Zeming, hurry up!

We have tickets

We have tickets

Stop boarding!

We're full! Stop!

Stop boarding!

We're setting sail, stop boarding

Zekun

Zeming, hurry

Stop pushing! The ship is full!

Zeming

Zekun

I'm sorry

Mother

Please forgive me

We departed late

We'll run into the coast guard for sure

We'll be alright once we reach open sea

To avoid being intercepted

turn off all lights

Lights out

Lights out

"KEELUNG PORT"

Yunfen

Ma!

Yunfen!

Ma!

The house isn't safe, we must leave

The storm is getting stronger

Where are we going?

Quick, let's get out of here

Be careful

Get up

Miss

Be careful

- It hurts - The baby may be injured

My belly hurts

This is not good

We'd better go find my mother and get help

Come, be careful

You guys go first, I'll check on Mr. Guo

Yunfen

We're almost there

Don't worry

Help! Somebody help!

Mother! Open up! Mother!

Coming

What happened?

The baby may be injured

Come in quickly

- Happy new year - Same to you

One

Two

Three

It's the New Year!

Those bygone days have turned light blue

When I look into the distant sea I think of death

I kneel silently by the sea

And remember the other shore

I am alone

All alone

- Eat more - It's delicious

Happy New Year

Everybody have some buns

There's enough for everyone, no need to rush

I have a...

Happy New Year

Drink...

My shift's almost over, it's your turn

It's time?

There's still five more minutes!

I need to use the bathroom

Well hold it in!

Uncle

I heard the central bank moved its gold reserves...

...onto this ship. Is it true?

At a time like this

none of that is important

This time round

no one knows when

my family can return to Shanghai and start anew

Actually

You should have told us about your problems

How could I?

When we get to Taiwan, I'll ask my husband to ask around

Maybe he can find Yang Tianhu

Thank you so much

Don't give up too easily

Being a soldier is like that

When war breaks out, you follow your orders

When war ends

you follow your fate

Who knows?

Maybe he's using this opportunity

to look for you too

Sir

Excuse me, but do you know

where the injured soldiers are?

I think they're up front

Thank you

It's New Year's Eve tonight

Come get something to eat and celebrate

Have some warm tea

Thanks

Come

Does anyone know Yang Tianhu?

Yang Tianhu, anyone know him?

Which unit is he in?

9th Brigade, 55th Regiment

I heard the 9th Brigade was wiped out

We're the 53rd Brigade

Do you know Yang Tianhu?

Do you know Yang Tianhu?

Yang Tianhu of the 7th Division...

9th Brigade, 55th Regiment, 2nd Battalion, 8th Company

Do you know him?

Does anyone know Yang Tianhu?

Does anyone know Yang Tianhu?

Anyone know Yang Tianhu?

Anyone know Yang Tianhu?

Anyone know Yang Tianhu?

Anyone there?

Quick, help me find my wife's photo

Anyone there?

Who can help me?

Who's seen my wife's photo?

Anyone?

Who's seen the photo of my wife?

Has anyone seen it

Is this it?

Thanks

Do you know Yang Tianhu?

You sound a lot like my wife

This is my wife

Her voice is as beautiful as yours

Especially when she says

You

This is your wife?

Yes, my wife

Can you say what she's like?

This is embarrassing but

well

We're from the same village

We grew up together

She's gorgeous and fair

And she's wonderful to me

When she smiles, she has three dimples

One on the left and two on the right

I've struggled so hard to stay alive

because of her

She told me that I must stay alive

But on this ship

I always imagine you by the sea

I wish the sea would take me back

Perhaps like this, we can meet once more

Anyone still alive?

We're coming!

Yunfen

The baby is fine

You can stay here for a while

You can't live there anymore

Right mother?

Thank you

Whether or not General Lei met with...

...Deputy Commander Liu, I don't know

What I did see

was that right until the very end

General Lei did not waver

Liu tried to persuade him to join the Communists

This is an open secret

General Lei was an honorable soldier

He died after firing his last bullet

Sergeant Tong Daqing

Your testimony has been very clear

Thank you

Also

General Lei's diary

records in detail the progress of the war

We will keep it as a reference

Impossible!

General Lei's final order to me

was to hand his diary to his wife

This is my mission!

Madam

I am signals soldier Tong Daqing

General Lei instructed me to pass this to you

With this I have accomplished my mission

Until the very end

General Lei's thoughts were always about you

Are you with him?

We were thrown together by fate

Good day Madam

I'm Yu Zhen

This notebook was almost lost at sea

but Miss Yu retrieved it for me

It must have been tough

Thank you

That's great

You're now free to go home

This is my home

Women of our times

in order to raise a family

seem almost destined

to keep running

You have

You have

My mother has

I believe I have too

Yifang once told me

I am his home

As long as I am around

He can always find his way home

Don't be afraid!

Here, push! Use strength!

Mom We are ready...

Push!

The birth of a child

always makes one feel

that everything

can start anew

What will you name him?

Let's name him Taisheng (born in Taiwan)

Yifang

The boy has grown up quickly

He's very healthy

and has your temperament

Don't worry

He knows about you

and all that has happened

I always read to Taisheng from your diary

and tell him stories about you

and about us
