SIAS Chapter 101.2

Yi Qingqing, the darling of the women’s group of Team 1, has a good relationship with the Captain’s wife Lin Guihua and the Village Chief’s wife Xu Dongmei. She can also talk to Captain Zhao Youtian. She will seek the help of Lin Guihua and Xu Dongmei.

Wang Lingling, on the other hand, remained on hold for the time being, neither responding nor rejecting Lu Xianjin, waiting for the opportunity.

Qian Lailai is responsible for secretly telling stories among other villagers to influence public opinion.

The story is a short story about the Phoenix Man Chen Shimei compiled by Yi Qingqing and Li Mengxue with this era as the background.

The story had a very realistic and suspenseful beginning: ‘Alas, it’s such a pity that the daughter of my aunt’s husband’s aunt’s younger sister met such a man…’

“Finally, we need to give our organization and our actions a loud and catchy name!” Li Mengxue concluded.

Yi Qingqing’s heart sank.

Here it comes again, here it comes again. The weird organization comes again.

“I know, I know! How about Four Golden Flowers? Are the four of us worse than the Five Golden Flowers of Yang Likun and others? It was led by a man, and we are fighting a stinky man together!”

The naming genius Qian Lailai is online again.

“Okay, okay, I really like to watch ‘Five Golden Flowers’.” Said Wang Lingling.

Yi Qingqing could see that Wang Lingling was sincere, but she really didn’t know what ‘Five Golden Flowers’ was.

Li Mengxue also didn’t know, “What is ‘Five Golden Flowers’ about?”

“You two haven’t seen it. It’s about the Vice President of the commune Jin Hua, played by Yang Likun, and Ah Peng, a blacksmith from Jianchuan who came to attend the horse racing. They agreed to meet by the Butterfly Spring when the camellia blooms the following year. But Jin Hua didn’t come, so Ah Peng looked for her everywhere. He successively mistook Jin Hua, a model for fertilizer accumulation, Jin Hua from the livestock farm, Jin Hua from the steel mill, and Jin Hua, a tractor driver, as his true love. In short, the plot is not important. The five Jin Huas are all good-looking and capable girls, and many people like them! What a lucky and wealthy name!” Qian Lailai said.

Yi Qingqing: “…”

It’s mainly about wealth!

Li Mengxue heard that it was pretty, so she agreed. “I declare that our organization, the Four Golden Flowers, is officially established! The name of this operation is Phoenix Skinning!”

Yi Qingqing: “…”

Please save her. Was it so important whether they were organized or not?

Four Golden Flowers was even more embarrassing than the Reed Marsh Squad!

She decided to raise her hand and express her opinion.

Li Mengxue glanced around and said, “Okay, no one objects. We will rank by age. I am the Big Golden Flower, Lailai is the Second Golden Flower, Lingling is the Third Golden Flower, and Qingqing is the Little Golden Flower. This is our code for the meeting. Keep it secret, okay? The meeting is over. Adjourned!”

Five Golden Flowers

Five Golden Flowers (Chinese: 五朶金花; pinyin: Wǔ duo jīnhuā) is a 1959 Chinese romantic musical film directed by Wang Jiayi and produced by Changchun Film Studio.

The film was produced and released in 1959. It received exuberant responses from audiences and was exported to 46 countries after its debut. During the Cultural Revolution, it was banned and attacked by Jiang Qing for promoting romanticism. In 1978, the film was re-released.

Set in Dali City in Yunnan Province, the film is about a Bai ethnic youth, Ah Peng, searching for his beloved ethnic girl Jin Hua (Golden Flower).

Ah Peng is a Bai ethnic minority youth from Jianchuan County in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture. On the opening day of Dali’s March Fair, Ah Peng is on his way to a horse race.

Along the way, he meets a group of girls whose wagon breaks down by the roadside. Ah Peng helps them fix the wagon, but that almost causes him to miss the horse racing. Leaving in a hurry, Ah Peng drops his tools. One of the girls, Jin Hua, is impressed by Ah Peng’s skill and kindness. She carefully puts the tools in her handcrafted pouch.

After Ah Peng wins the horse race, Jin Hua finds him and gives him her pouch. Staring at Jin Hua’s golden embroidery, Ah Peng falls in love with her.

By the Butterfly Spring, Jin Hua and Ah Peng express their love for one another by singing a Bai duet. Ah Peng gives Jin Hua his steel knife, which symbolizes his faithfulness. Jin Hua promises Ah Peng to meet at the same place at next year’s March Fair. She tells Ah Peng her name, Jin Hua.

A year later, Jin Hua does not show up at the Butterfly Spring. Without the girl’s surname, Ah Peng starts looking for her in the Cang Mountains.

The first Jin Hua he meets is a manure collector. Although she is not the right person, Ah Peng picks up a sickle in the lake for her.

The second Jin Hua is a stockyard worker who is extremely busy helping cattle give birth. Eager to see Jin Hua, Ah Peng starts singing their song outside the window. Misunderstanding Ah Peng’s purpose, the second Jin Hua throws a bucket of water at him.

The third Jian Hua is one of the foundry workers.

Then, Ah Peng and the two cultural workers arrive at the commune’s tractor station where a wedding is taking place. The bride, also named Jin Hua, is a tractor driver. However, Ah Peng mistakes the bride for his Jin Hua.

Heartbroken, he goes back to the Butterfly Spring to reminisce about the day they met.

Ah Peng leaves the tractor station and runs into the third Jin Hua. She just has a quarrel with her husband about the low production of iron. Ah Peng, who is a warm-hearted youth, decides to help her. He devotes himself to working in the foundry. The production of iron increases rapidly because of his expertise.

Jin Hua at the foundry speaks highly of Ah Peng. She also takes care of Ah Peng after he loses his love. Her husband, the foundry director Yang becomes jealous and he asks Jin Hua, the vice-president of the commune, to settle this problem. It turns out Ah Peng’s beloved girl is the vice-president of the commune.

With the help of Jin Hua from the foundry, Ah Peng finally finds the girl of his dreams and clears up the misunderstandings. Ah Peng and Jin Hua reunite at the Butterfly Spring. Other girls named Jin Hua and their lovers gather around them to celebrate the moment with a final chorus.
