The story is about a businessman Zhou Pu Yuan, who was in love with his house maid Lu Shi Ping back in his hometown when he was young. Shi Ping then got pregnant and gave birth to a son. The family din wana acknowledge her and the child, so they threw them out. Pu Yuan could not do anything. It was then rumoured that the Shi Ping committed suicide at a nearby river and she left behind her 3 month old son, who was then brought back by Pu Yuan. The son's name was Zhou Ping.
Years later, Zhou Pu Yuan married a young lady, Fan Yi who was 20 years his junior and had a son named Zhou Chong. Fan Yi had lived 18 years with the fact that Pu Yuan was still so guilty about Shi Ping's "death" that their house still had the old furniture which Shi Ping used. Every summer, Pu Yuan will ensure that all windows are kept shut coz Shi Ping used to do so. All these are done to keep her in memory.
Fan Yi soon got sick and had to take medication every now and then. They had a maid Si Feng to take care of her and Zhou Chong (Fan Yi's son) was in love with her. However, Si Feng and Zhou Ping (Pu Yuan & Shi Ping's son) was in love with each other very deeply. And, the funniest thing is that Si Feng is actually Shi Ping's daughter, whom she had with the man who saved her from the river 18 years ago, Lu Gui.
Above sounds very cheeem rite? Here's more.. Something happened about 2 years ago when the father Zhou Pu Yuan was in his mine for business and work. Zhou Ping (who is obviously not Fan Yi's blood-related son) & Fan Yi had sex!!! OMG! How illicit is their relationship!!! :x Fan Yi was so lonely and she really needed someone, especially after she had married an MCP like Zhou Pu Yuan, he always kept her shut when she needed him to accompany her. After Fan Yi and Zhou Ping's secret rendezvous, Fan Yi blamed Zhou Ping for seducing her! She then had slight mental problems and was too i love with Zhou Ping..
Zhou Ping was only seriously in love with Si Feng and asked Fan Yi to let him off as he went to bed with her that time only in the moment of folly.. He did not want to have anything to do with her. Not even want to have her as a stepmother. Fan Yi then got even more crazy.
Lu Gui is the housekeeper of the Zhou Family. He brought his daughter Si Feng to the Zhou's to take care of Fan Yi. And obviously as mentioned above, Lu Gui and Shi Ping got married after the river rescue and had Si Feng. So Shi Ping is Si Feng's mother. Shi Ping then came to the Zhou's house to visit her daughter as their actual house is actually back in their hometown. However, Shi Ping did not know that the house her daughter and husband are working in actually belongs to the man whose family had thrown her out 18 years ago and did not know that Zhou Ping is her real son!
Soon Shi Ping came to the house and saw that the furniture all seem familiar.. And the windows are shut!! She then realise that she has came to Zhou Pu Yuan's house!!! And worse her whole family is working for him!! Okay, Shi Ping and Lu Gui had another son, named Lu Da Hai a stubborn worker at Zhou Pu Yuan's mine. He is the one who came up with the strike and demanded that the company give them more benefits and compensation on what they deserve to have. Hmm, troublemaker..
Anyway, Zhou Pu Yuan then came back home and saw Shi Ping. He couldn't recognise her as they were too old. Only when they started to chat about their home town and about the river incident, then Zhou Pu Yuan came to realise that Shi Ping is right in front of him!! He soon apologised about what had happened and wanted to use monetary compensation for forgiveness. He also requested Shi Ping not to have anything to do with their family anymore as he was worried it will affect his reputation and his family. He did not want Zhou Ping to know about her as well. But Shi Ping wanted nothing but a chance to see her son Zhou Ping.
They then saw each other. But to Zhou Ping, Shi Ping is only Si Feng's mother.. Shi Ping was worried about Si Feng as well, as she knew that her daughther should not have anything to do with the Zhou family. She then asked Si Feng and Lu Gui to leave the house at once. Lu Gui was unhappy about it as he is a greedy useless man who only asks for money from his family.
Si Feng was very upset and Zhou Ping actually had plans to go to the mine to work for his father for a few months then come back to marry Si Feng. But Fan Yi knew all about his plans and tried ways to stop him from going. Zhou Ping told Si Feng that he will look for her at her house at 11pm that night when she and her family were to leave the Zhou's house for good. Zhou Chong, who was in love with Si Feng as well, went to look for her at her house before his brother did. He passed the $1,000 of compensation which his mum Fan Yi gave to the Lu family. But Lu Da Hai, Si Feng's brother was very angry, he returned the money to him and scolded him off. Zhou Chong then left.
Now, Si Feng was supposed to go back to hometown with her mum the next morning. She was very upset as she could not be with Zhou Ping even though they love each other so much. Shi Ping did not want Si Feng to have anything to do with the Zhou's. Later that night at 11pm, while thunderstorm had already started, Zhou Ping came to look for Si Feng from her room's window. Fan Yi followed him. Zhou Ping told Si Feng that he will come back to marry her in another few month's time after he has settled down in his father's mine. She was in a dilemma. She told him that she could not wait as she had to go back with her mum.
Fan Yi then locked the window from outside so that Zhou Ping could not escape if anybody is to come into Si Feng's room. True enuff, Lu Da Hai came in to look for Si Feng and saw Zhou Ping. He flew into a rage and punched Zhou Ping. Soon after, Shi Ping came in as well and tried to stop Da Hai and asked Zhou Ping to run away. Si Feng was very angry with Da Hai and she screamed and ran away from the house. Shi Ping and Da Hai became anxious and ran to look for Si Feng.
Now the scene is at Zhou's house. Da Hai came to look for Zhou Ping and asked where is Si Feng. But Si Feng did not come to his house at all. Then Zhou Ping told him about the pain he is suffering emotionally and mentally, caused by his stepmother Fan Yi. Da Hai felt sorry for him and said he allowed him to run away with his sister Si Feng. Then came Si Feng, Da Hai went to hide cos he did not want his sister to get angry if she sees him.
Si Feng told Zhou Ping that she is willing to give up everything and elope with him. They were very happy to be with each other and wanted to run away at once. And now, came Shi Ping. She tried her best to persuade them not to be together, reason she gave was that Si Feng is from a low-class family and had no education. She is not suitable for Zhou Ping. But they were too in love to care about this!! Then Si Feng suddenly announced that she is actually 3 months pregnant!!! OMG! Shi Ping wanted to faint! coz her own son and her own daughter had sex with each other and now bears a child!!!!! What a SIN!
Shi Ping then kept blaming herself for bringing upon this. She then saw that her two children was so in love with each other, she could not do anything but to let them leave. She also demanded them not to see her and have nothing to do with her anymore. The 2 lovebirds did not know that Zhou Ping is actually her long-lost son! Si Feng was upset and she dragged awhile before deciding to leave and run away with Zhou Ping.
Soon came Fan Yi walking down from upstairs. She asked her son Zhou Chong to snatch back his beloved Si Feng from his brother. Fan Yi's real motive was actually to stop Zhou Ping from running away from home so that she can have him by her side.. Zhou Chong seeing that Si Feng only loved Zhou Ping, he then decided to wish them well and demanded his brother to treat Si Feng well. Fan Yi was extremely angry and kept blaming her son for being stupid, useless, selfish..... What a MOTHER!?!?
Fan Yi was sooo furious that she shouted out so loud that Zhou Pu Yuan from upstairs could hear her. He came down from his room and saw that everybody was there in his hall! He was shocked and asked what's going on. It was raining thunderstorm still at that time. With everyone there and thought that to save the trouble of complications, he revealed that Shi Ping was Zhou Ping's real mother. Now Zhou Ping and Si Feng could not take it, for they are siblings!!!!!!! Pu Yuan only now know that his son had been in love with Si Feng, and got to know the real picture.
Fan Yi then tried to apologise that she did not know that such a thing will happen. She only wanted Zhou Ping to stay by her side. Now Si Feng could not take it anymore and ran out into the thunderstorm rain. Thinking that she could run as far away to escape all these, she stepped onto an unremoved broken electric cable. Zhou Chong ran out to run after Si Feng, and while trying to save her, he touched her and both were electrocuted to death!!!!! They were burnt badly.. The families were devastated.. Zhou Ping went mad.. and took the gun (which Lu Da Hai had brought to the Zhou's house earlier) with him to his room. He then shot himself to death....
Only Zhou Pu Yuan, Fan Yi and Shi Ping were left in the house. Pu Yuan was telling himself why did this happened and cried helplessly. Fan Yi and Shi Ping went crazy..
It was then showed that 10 years later, Fan Yi and Shi Ping were still in a missionary hospital, in unstable mental condition. Pu Yuan went to visit them in winter and asked the nun if anybody had came to visit Shi Ping (Lu Gui & Lu Da Hai). The nun replied that nobody had came before accept him.. Shi Ping still could not recognise anybody.
The show ended with beautiful snow outside the peaceful hospital with Shi Ping sitting by her favourite furniture looking blankly.
Isnt the show interesting? Okay im tired.. Thanks for reading. This is the best play I have ever watched. :)
