As most of the parents went to work in southern cities, only the elderly and children remained in the village. Yi Mingtang (played by Yi Zhibing), a primary school teacher, couldn't bear to see these children follow in their parents' footsteps and decided to open a family kindergarten to teach the children culture. His laid-off wife (played by He Weixin) became the principal, and Li Xiang (played by Xie Yuan), a junior high school student, became a teacher. Due to the poor conditions, Yimingtang vacated his ancestral home as a place for the children's activities. After the kindergarten opened, all kinds of unexpected difficulties followed one after another. Some families couldn't even afford the low tuition fees. Tuo Tuo left the kindergarten and ran away because of Li Xiang's improper education. Li Xiang felt very guilty and wanted to apply for a normal school to study systematically. Xiuxiu's mother came back from working, but her daughter didn't recognize her. Moreover, her husband was having an affair. Heartbroken, she left her hometown. As Yi Mingtang did not have the qualifications to run a school, the township ordered him to close the kindergarten. What saddens Yi Mingtang is what will happen to these left-behind children......[Collapse]
