Daming's sense of existence is very weak. He is a wanderer who has been away from home for several years, and he does not care about his family's livelihood and his relatives. In the father's emotions, Daming is a nominal son. When he saw the painting, he understood that Daming came back just to confirm whether he was dead or not, and said: I am very happy that you can come back to see "younger brother". He opened business with Er Ming as usual, ran, took a bath, and didn't even look at Da Ming when he entered the door. When telling stories, he said that the girl was "Er Ming" his mother. Daming wanted to talk to his father, but he didn't know how to interrupt. After buying a massage chair, Lao Liu just said "Thank you" and laughed together with Erming. He felt that the bathhouse was ashamed, Erming was ashamed, he had never brought his wife home, and he wanted to draw a clear line with his family, but after all, he grew up in this neighborhood, and he was never rooted. Erming lost, his father was disappointed, "I can't lose both sons", which gave Da Ming, who wanted to save face, a slap in the face.

Daming is a representative of the new era and new culture, observing the neighborhood bathhouses in old Beijing. A new era brings a new urban lifestyle. The hutongs were demolished, and even the crickets could not survive on the high-rise buildings; the old man was divided into buildings in different districts, and it was difficult to meet each other; Erming was just stupid in the bathroom, able to entertain guests and live as usual; called madman. Daming is the endorsement of the giant wheel of the times, looking forward and never looking back; while Erming is the old tie.

Demolition and relocation cannot be given up, new things cannot be rejected, and abandoning the old is like the labor pains of childbirth, and sometimes it is also a severe pain. Always give yourself some comfort to get through the pain, always give some tolerance to the lag of the reflex arc, the transition from the old to the new always takes time, and there is always a buffer for feelings. Daming promised Erming: I don't know what to do with my sister-in-law for the time being, but the two brothers will definitely be together; He Zheng fixed the neon lights before the demolition; Lao Lin recorded the DV for the demolition ruins, the flat bathhouse and old friends. Neighborhood demolition broke the bathhouse culture, transitioned the society of acquaintances to the society of strangers, and the ties between people became thinner, and the warmth of neighbors in the old era was so precious.

Taking a bath can be exchanged for food to bless the girl who is about to get married; taking a bath can be a medium for pilgrimage, a wish of grandma before her death; taking a bath is also a social platform for them to tease crickets, play chess, and chat. As long as we still miss that kind of warmth, how can we be discouraged from creating new warmth in the new era?
