The film tells the story of the last left behind child, named Baby, in Dongfeng primary school in the mountain area. Because his father had died of illness and his mother couldn't take care of herself because of cancer, so her mother sent him to Dongfeng primary school. At that time, Baby's mother had an agreement with the teacher (Mr. Zhang) when she sent her child to Dongfeng primary school: on the day of the baby's birthday next year, she would came to pick up Baby and went back to the county primary school. However, until other students of Dongfeng primary school had all moved to the town for school, Mr. Zhang didn't get the news that Baby’s mother came to pick up the child. For this reason, the teacher was anxious to sleep at night and waited silently and anxiously. After his mother died, Mr. Zhang reluctantly sent the child to the child welfare home in time with the help of the village head under the entrustment of his mother's will.

This film focuses on the responsibility and responsibility of mountain teachers who are not afraid of hardships and seriously educate left behind children. At the same time, from another perspective, it also expounds the life philosophy of "Mountains and rivers may block the way, yet another village will appear amidst willow trees and blooming flowers.".
