Synopsis:


In the early 1940s, when the New Fourth Army was fighting along the Guxi River, Captain Li, a music instructor, sacrificed his life after entrusting his newborn baby Hongying to the Yang family.

The Yang family treats Hongying as their family, raising her with their own daughter, Yang Danxia, and teaching them to sing folk songs. In the 1950s, when an art troupe was recruiting, Yang's father's strange attitude made the sisters suspicious and misidentified their origins. When the elder sister, Hongying, learnt of the wishes of her two fathers, she understood the meaning of folk songs and made a choice between love and family. She lived beside the Guxi River and collected Guxi folk songs to pass them on to this day ......
