(Crying blind again...) Very real show of rich layered culture conflict, between Billi and her home culture, Billi and her parents, parents and extended family, parents and home culture. Billi's family has identified more with the United States than China, and now they have to do things with the whole family that they can't agree with in their own hearts. At the same time, it is also mixed with the guilt of not being by her mother's side for many years, which is very rich. There are many scenes I like: fighting for the baby at the dinner table; Billi has entered the house and the whole family looks back at her when the grandma reads the laboratory test list; Uncle Haibin has never let Billi tell his grandmother's illness, but when he gave a speech at the wedding, he showed his true feelings and broke down. Crying; when Billi and grandma parted, grandma kept comforting Billi. As soon as the taxi drove away, grandma couldn't help covering her mouth and crying. I don't seem to understand the matter of "hiding it" all the time. Chinese people always report good news instead of bad news, and they don't often express their love and concern in their hearts, but when I heard Uncle Haibin say, "You want to tell grandma the truth because you are afraid of taking responsibility. , this responsibility is too great, if you tell her you will not have the burden, the reason why we don't tell grandma the truth is to share her mental pressure", I have a sense of relief, maybe this is the meaning of family.
