"why aren't you eating it?" "It's settled then we'll take pictures tomorrow" "Ruoma, have you thought about it?"

"Grandma, I'm back" "This is the money I made taking pictures" "Ruoma, come here" "So this is the money you made taking pictures with tourists?" "Yes" "You make this much taking pictures?" "The Hani never cheat people" "Grandma, you don't understand" "They're willing to give me money" "Because they want to take pictures with me" "Ruoma, why are you back so late?" "Have something to eat" "Who taught you to do that?" "Grandma, his name is A-Ming" "He can do everything understand everything" "He takes really good pictures I really like his pictures" "Grandma" "Ms Luo, so you are here" "Ruoma, Ruoma" "Ruoma, Ruoma" "Are you deaf?" "Ruoma, where did you get this?" "This is really expensive" "Did your lover give this to you?" "Nonsense!" "Ruoma, your eyes give you away lf you talk any more nonsense I'm not going to be your friend" "Ruoma..." "Where did this come from?" "Really?" "Ruoma, hop on!" "What do you want to do with the money you earn?" "What did you say?" "I mean, after you've made money what do you want to do with it?" "Ride in an elevator" "There are lots of fun things in the city" "Why do you just want to ride in an elevator?" "Riding in an elevator would be fun" "Okay, then when you've made money I'll take you" "Help me out here, take a good picture" "One, two, three, perfect!" "C'om, take one more" "One, two, three!" "One more!" "Let's go, Ruoma." "Get your things I've already paid why can't I take a picture?" "What's the big deal?" "Isn't she just a country girl?" "Who the fuck needs your money?" "Here I could see right off you're no good" "Dragging a little country girl around to cheat people!" "Say that again!" "Say that again!" "What are you going to do about it?" "Have a smoke" "You're finally here" "Waiting for me to pay the rent?" "Ming, bring me my slippers" "Here you're" "Pour me a glass of water" "This little Hani girl is really sweet on you" "She is Ruoma, isn't she?" "Sister, would you like some more drink?" "Ruoma, you're really quite pretty" "You must have made a lot of money for A-Ming taking pictures" "Here, Ruoma" "Swiss chocolate. it's really good" "Take it, go on" "Ming, I spent all day on a bus I'm beat I'm going upstairs to lie down" "Ming, come up for a minute" "I'll be going now" "I've been waiting here all day" "And you knew I was coming today I know..." "Grandma..." "Grandma" "You want me to sell clothes I can't do that" "What else can you do?" "Playing with that thing all day long" "What use is it?" "Have you made any money?" "Just look at you now!" "You can't even pay the rent" "And you had to open this photo studio" "You said there was nice scenery and lots of tourists" "Thought you could make money and do some art I gave you 20,000 yuan" "But now you've lost it all" "So you lost it all. I don't blame you I told you to come with me but you wouldn't" "You insisted on hanging out with this country girl" "This time I only have one thing to say to you lf you still care about me then come with me lf you're still that into your business and crazy about your photography then let's just call it quits" "God you're annoying" "You dare hit me?" "Lili" "What should I do about this place?" "You're crazy" "Go talk to the one who owes your rent lt's his business lt has nothing to do with me" "Best wishes to Luo-xia for her wedding!" "Luo-xia, what does A-Qing look like?" "We still haven't met him" "Luo-xia" "According to our Hani traditions" "The night before your wedding" "You have to drink a farewell toast to your lover" "Who's your lover?" "I went away to work when I was young" "How would I have a lover in the village?" "Why don't you choose one among us?" "Okay, then I'll choose one" "Ga!" "Cheers!" "Ga, what are you going to give to your lover?" "C'mon. let's see it!" "What?" "You really do have something?" "I never would have thought" "That's such a beautiful silver bracelet!" "Ga likes Luo-xia" "Why didn't he tell her?" "Ga's family is too poor" "He was afraid Luo-xia wouldn't think him" "Bo!" "A-Bo!" "It's time to sow!" "Time to plant!" "Time to plant!" "Seedings are like a pretty young girl" "Like a pretty young girl" "The field is like a strong young man" "Like a robust strong young man lf the seeding girl doesn't get planted the field doesn't grow" "The field doesn't grow lf the field doesn't grow lf the field doesn't grow" "There will be no harvest" "There will be no harvest" "You hit my ear!" "You run fast I fell down in the field" "This year's harvest should be very good" "Grandma, when the Hani people plant why do they throw mud on each other?" "My grandmother doesn't speak Putonghua" "Grandma said we throw mud primarily to bless the harvest so that for next year's harvest" "The more mud that's thrown the bigger the harvest will be" "What did grandma just say?" "Grandma said this is a way of showing affection between young Hani men and women" "This is a tradition of the Hani people" "For the Hani, the first handful of mud is thrown at the person she likes" "Ruoma, where did grandma tell you to go?" "Grandma wanted me go upstairs to get the mushrooms" "No need, grandma, no need I like Ruoma's roasted corn" "What's it, Ruoma?" "Are you okay?" "Okay" "Ruoma" "This may be the last time we take pictures" "What did you say?" "I'm going back to the city" "Going back to the city?" "is it true?" "Then take me with you" "What?" "You want to come with me?" "Did you forget?" "You promised me" "You'd take me to ride in an elevator after we made money I didn't forget..." "But I just don't understand" "Why do you want to ride in an elevator so badly?" "Say something, Ruoma" "Ruoma!" "Stop..." "Ruoma, I've made up my mind lt doesn't matter if we don't make money I'll think of some way" "Didn't you say you wanted to ride in an elevator?" "I'll take you there" "Really?" "A-Ming?" "Grandma do you know what an elevator is?" "An elevator?" "Ming" "You screw around all day" "Running around with a Hani girl" "And you want to be a photographer?" "Take a look at yourself" "You owe the rent and you still won't leave so what are you going to do about it?" "What's it going to be?" "Boss Guo Luo, are you Hani?" "What if I am?" "Hani people have good hearts not wicked ones" "I'm a complete disgrace" "Go away" "And don't come back here" "Get going" "Ruoma, you're back" "Ruoma!" "Ruoma!" "Ruoma, What's with you?" "This is the key for the motorbike Take it" "Ming, if you don't have a place to stay I'll let you stay two more days" "No charge" "Ruoma, I only see your grandmother" "Where are your parents?" "They aren't with us" "They?" "They passed away when I was little" "Wait" "I should give this back to you" "Keep it as a souvenir" "Can you give me this photo?" "Ruoma, the terraced fields here are so beautiful" "How do you get water up hills this high?" "Grandma says there's a spring on top of the mountain" "But there's less and less spring water each year" "I'll be leaving tomorrow I promised I'd take you to ride in an elevator" "I'm sorry" "It doesn't matter" "Look, do I look like I'm riding in an elevator?" "Ming, what happened?" "Grandma" "Listen to me" "Ming is a good person I want to go with him" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Grandpa Long-ni!" "Have you seen my grandma?" "Your calf has wandered off She went looking for it" "Grandma!" "Grandma!" "Come back, Ruoma, come back" "You're not a water lily so don't float on water" "You're not a fish so don't long for the water" "Come back!" "You're your parents daughter" "You're my partner in mirth" "Come back, Ruoma" "Come back, Come back" "Come back to the happy, peaceful village" "Come back!" "Come back to this paradise garden" "Come back, Ruoma" "Come back" "Come back, Come back..." "Grandma" "Do you feel better?" "You must be hungry" "Grandma" "Grandma I'm not going to the city anymore" "Sorry I accidentally opened it" "A-Ming has done well for himself" "Ruoma, take this" "See you" "Have some roasted corn!"
