Synopsis: In a remote mountain village during the Republic of China period, there was a primary school with only a few students, and the four teachers got along quite harmoniously, and they used the donkey who pulled the water to get a teacher's quota to receive a salary, so that they could pull water from a distance to facilitate life. However, the arrival of the Commissioner of the Education Bureau shattered this seemingly peaceful life. In order to hide this secret, the four had no choice but to arrange for the coppersmith who pulled the water to impersonate Teacher Lu De, and after a series of ridiculous and not sad and angry stories. In the end, the story seems to return to calm, but it seems that it cannot go back.
Classic line: If the past is over, it will only get worse in the future.
Feeling: The whole drama is full of absurdity and unbearable, but the reality may be so cruel. It seems that the world is stable, but what is surging below? What is repression? Do some people have something that stands up to scrutiny? In the mediocre life, we only remember what is survival and what is recklessness, but we forget what is called thinking. How much time is left to think? The surface of the bright and decent may be full of holes, the tattered heart may be as pure as water, what have people gained on the road of pursuit, and what have they lost?
