Summer in the Bamboo Basket
A torrential downpour destroys the terraced fields, leaving Lin He’s family with just 8.6 yuan and a debt of 30 yuan. She and Chen Chunsheng take on an order for twenty bamboo baskets and learn the craft from Master Zhou, a gruff man with a soft heart. When their shelter collapses on a rainy night, Zhao Dazhuang secretly sabotages them, and market traders try to force down their prices. Lin He turns the tide by demonstrating on the spot that her baskets can hold water without leaking. At a trade fair, she secures a major order and establishes a bamboo-weaving cooperative, bringing both the abandoned fields and the bamboo basket business back to life. After a disastrous start, the whole village works together, piece by piece, to build a springtime of hope.
