Reply from Heaven

1990s, Beijing. Chenchen (played by Shi Chen)'s parents work abroad, and he lives with his grandfather (played by Li Ding) on ​​weekdays. My grandfather worked as a postal worker all his life, and after retirement, he and his grandson depended on each other. One day, the grandfather and grandson tied a letter from a deceased recipient to a kite and flew it into the sky. Grandpa told Chenchen that he would receive it in heaven. Soon, her mother (played by Xiao Xiong) came back from abroad. She couldn't stand her father-in-law's indulgence of Chenchen, and arranged English, piano and other lessons for Chenchen every day. The original peace was gone, and her grandfather moved back to his old residence. Chenchen misses his grandfather day and night. He hates the English piano so much that he cries endlessly all day long. His mother looks thoughtful when she sees this. Grandpa’s birthday is here. Chenchen and her good friend Linlin sent birthday greetings. Grandpa took them out to fly a kite. After a tiring day, amidst the laughter of the children, grandpa actually "slept" forever...
