Synopsis
Ten years ago, trishaw rider Liu Afu adopted an infant girl and named her Xiaohua. Since his spouse passed away three years ago, he has been relying on the company of his adopted daughter, Xiaohua.
However, one day, Afu fainted while working and was rushed to the hospital. There, he received the devastating news that he had a severe illness. Facing the high medical expenses, Afu made the heart-wrenching decision to forgo treatment, realizing that he had limited time left.
With Xiaohua being a young child and no one to care for her, he decided the best solution was to send her to her biological parents. Afu embarked on a challenging and tearful journey to search for Xiaohua's biological family. He used the clues he had when he adopted Xiaohua to find her biological parents' hometown.
Afu told Xiaohua they were going on a trip and began a difficult and emotional journey with her on his trishaw.
