The Long Season Episode 5 Recap
> The Long Season Recap
Wang Xiang accidentally discovered that his colleague Liu Quanli secretly used the company's train to transport goods. This matter not only involved Liu Quanli but also the workshop director. Xing Jianchun from the security department quietly called Wang Xiang and gave him two cigarettes. Wang Xiang, who had been a veteran driver for decades, knew that once he got involved in something shady, it would be hard to get out. So he secretly tampered with a part on the train, and the next day, the train broke down halfway. When the repair team went to fix the machine, they discovered the equipment being used for unauthorized transportation.
At that time, Wang Xiang's monthly salary was only a small amount. His wife earned some extra money by knitting a big sweater for less than forty yuan. Wang Xiang even returned the two hard Chinese cigarettes because he wanted to be an honest person. However, he unintentionally disrupted the interests of some people's chains.
At that time, Wang Yang worked as a waiter in an entertainment club. He went out early and came back late every day, and his mother didn't know what he was busy with. Wang Xiang wanted his son to repeat a year of school, but he didn't agree and wanted to work as a laborer in his father's factory. Wang Yang went to work every day and whenever there was good food at home, he would bring some to Shen Mo. The two became friends, and Wang Yang even invited Shen Mo to see his father's factory, which many people had never seen the inside of the locomotive because his father was a conductor and had that privilege.
Shen Mo and Wang Yang went to see the train together, walking along the quiet train track. Wang Yang talked about his father's life and felt that his father was too conservative and had always lived a conventional life. His own aspirations were different from his father's. Wang Yang wanted to be a poet, which Shen Mo found interesting. Wang Yang then read a poem he had just written to Shen Mo. As she listened to Wang Yang's romantic and pure poem, Shen Mo couldn't help but be plunged into the shadows of her own memories.
Shen Mo's uncle and aunt came to visit. This uncle didn't look like a decent person, but Wang Xiang grew up in his house when he was young, so he was polite to them. As it got late, Wang Xiang found a hotel for them to stay in. The uncle deliberately sent his wife away, then closed the door and made inappropriate advances towards Shen Mo. Shen Mo tried to suppress her anger and not provoke the uncle.
At night, Wang Xiang's wife could always hear knocking on the door without interruption. When Wang Xiang opened the door, he found a mouse tied to their door, struggling to escape, causing the iron door to make noise. Wang Xiang knew it had to do with what happened with Liu Quanli and someone was causing trouble behind the scenes. He had a sense of foreboding and asked his wife if she knew where their son went to work.
Wang Yang gave Shen Mo a movie ticket to Titanic while at work. Shen Mo was a bit hesitant, but Wang Yang handed her the ticket and left. Shen Mo's uncle came to the school looking for her and noticed it was already ten o'clock but she hadn't returned yet. The uncle even asked Shen Mo's dorm friends if she had a boyfriend. This uncle had a strange attitude, and Shen Mo's classmates weren't sure about his situation and didn't tell him clearly.
It was Shen Mo's birthday that day, and her friend from the orphanage, Fu Jun, bought her a BP machine as a birthday present. Wang Xiang was very happy, and she made a wish that they could all live a long and healthy life, and then blew out the candles.
In the morning, as soon as Wang Xiang finished class, he hurried to the hotel. He heard from his dormitory friend that her grandfather was looking for her. The grandfather claimed to have bought her new clothes as a birthday present and asked her to try them on immediately. Shen Mo was very unhappy. The auntie had been sleeping on the bed the whole time, and the uncle ordered her like a commander, not allowing any objections. Wang Xiang had no choice but to go to the bathroom to change clothes. The whole process was very awkward. The grandfather saw her wearing the new dress, and even helped to adjust the collar. He got very close to Shen Mo and reminded her not to work anymore to avoid meeting bad people.
Finally, Wang Xiang found his son who worked as a waiter outside the club. He was so conservative that when he saw his son wearing a waiter's uniform and bowing to everyone, he immediately called Wang Yang back home. That night was the day they had planned to watch a movie together. Shen Mo watched Titanic alone and walked out of the theater. She saw her grandfather waiting outside, and his tall shadow cast over her head. Shen Mo looked at him as if she had seen a wild beast and could not run away.
