At the beginning of the movie, the wide Jiangnan Waterfront

The spring breeze blew the south bank of the river, and the rivers flowing across the plains in the south of the Zhejiang river. The endless mulberry trees on both sides of the bank emitted a new bud. Tao Xiaoping, a rural girl, was a native of Jiangnan. After participating in the folk song competition in the county, she sat on the boat to go home. On the boat, she met Xiaomei, a former classmate, and heard that Xiaomei's Yue Opera Troupe was going to rehearse a new drama "Silkworm Flower Girl". She wanted to be an actor Xiaoping, so she followed her new sister -in -law Liu Qiaolian into the city to learn about silkworm technology.

Xiaoping said to sister -in -law's wish to raise silkworms

Tao Xiaoping, the protagonist in the film, is a young girl at a youth. She is childish and happy, full of liveliness and rotten girls of that aging girl. At the beginning of the film, she laughed at each other with the newlywed couples with Kowloon and Qiao Lian, without any contrivation and embarrassment. She ran like she ran away in the countryside, shouting "the bride is here!"; Even the rain on the rainy room like a little boy, "fluttering" into the river to swim.

Xiaoping shouted on the shore: "The bride is here!"

On one occasion, Xiaoping went to the county to play and did not return for a few days, causing Jiulong and Qiao Lian to quarrel. Xiaoping did not notice that the reason why the little couple quarreled was completely for herself, but instead tone from the middle like a person: "Okay, okay, see me face, no one is angry." Children and careless personality. Such features are also manifested in her work and study. When she saw the dexterous hands when others raised silkworms, she secretly vowed: "To raise a lifetime silkworm", but after she was frustrated immediately, she became "becoming an actor."

Xiaoping's distinctive personality is as pure and inadvertent as Jiangnan's sunshine, with a trace of innocence and naughty. But at the same time, she also has the delicateness and sensitivity of Jiangnan girls. When she started to raise silkworms, Xiaoping was full of energy, but her life passed for a long time, and she slashed. So Grandpa criticized her not to advance. Her self -esteem was hit at once, but she did not immediately "spoil and roll", but instead of making early mulberry, secretly, hoping to get everyone's affirmation again. This gentle mind reflects the characteristics of Jiangnan girls' "habits in the heart".

Xiaoping was criticized by everyone for his negligence

Xiaoping's sister -in -law Qiao Lian is more in line with the gentle and subtle personality of the women in Jiangnan. She wanted to raise silkworms, but Kowloon said that the new daughter -in -law was not good at raising silkworms. Although she was a little unwilling, she accepted silently. Because of Xiao Ping's raising silkworm, Kowloon and Qiaolian quarreled several times, but there was no too much "sword tension" between the couple. When facing fierce contradictions, Qiao Lian was more good at resolving patience and peace. Such emotional descriptions and drama conflicts are typical shaping and portrayal of women of Jiangnan women: they often speak softly, laughed without teeth, and they are not big about their behaviors and emotional expression and restraint.

Qiao Lian put on her head for Xiaoping, and the two smiled

Secondly, it is in stark contrast to Xiaoping's three hearts. Qiao Lian treats the work meticulous, serious, and practical. As an elder, Qiao Lian has always played the role of "leader" in Xiaoping's life. She has an example, strictly asking herself not to make mistakes, and at the same time teach Xiaoping, who is younger and more naughty than her. When Xiaoping made a mistake when raising silkworms, Qiao Lian's husband wanted to ask Xiaoping to leave directly, but Qiao Lian persuaded Xiaoping to stay and talked with her, telling her to do things from one In the end, you can't think of this today, and tomorrow. The understanding of Qiao Lian's explanation when dealing with interpersonal relationships is also in line with her gentle positioning of Jiangnan women.

In the choice of characters, You Jia, who plays Xiaoping, has a beautiful look, his face is smart and playful, with a smile and a smile, all like from the bottom of his heart, there is no hand -made traces, which fits Xiaoping's youthful personality and image. Zhu Manfang, who plays Qiao Lian, has a long eyebrow and rounded face, and is the appearance of a typical Jiangnan woman. This uninteresting but beautiful appearance is also more suitable for the gentle, practical, and understandable side of Qiao Lian's character. Xiao Ping's tearful eyes are smart

The protagonists of the two women are from ordinary labor class, and they also have the simple and kind quality of Jiangnan girls. However, in terms of personality, Xiaoping is more impulsive and considers the incomplete consideration when dealing with things, resulting in the loss of losses in the process of raising silkworms. Qiao Lian's stability, tolerance, and modesty have always influenced and changed Xiaoping. In the end, Xiaoping, under the temptation of Qiao Lian, quit arrogance and irritability, actively devoted himself to labor production, and harvested the happiness brought about by labor with sweat.
