It hits my heart more directly than Italy's "Family Journey", maybe this is the kind of tenderness and desire to talk in Asian culture. The two old people moved me infinitely. I thought I lived a rational life, but now it seems that I haven't tasted my life yet. Noriko's forbearance, virtuousness, and gentleness seem a little stupid to me, but I feel very, very sorry for her, and how she is so gentle.
Except for Jingzi's innocence and kindness, the other brothers and sisters have real personalities. I don't hate them at all, because they are too real, and they are the tools that are squeezed into reality in this real society. If everyone can live well, if the house can be bigger, who doesn't want to take good care of their parents?
Finally, let's go back to the old couple, they deeply made me understand the meaning of love, maybe it's like family affection. After fading away the dry wood and the fire, Yin Ren became the starlight of Yingying, because only with starlight can accompany each other through night after night. What is loneliness? Not just me, but without you.
