Story Transcript:
Zh: 漓江畔的微风轻轻拂过，连绵的山峦笼罩在薄雾中，似乎诉说着古老的故事。
En: The gentle breeze along the banks of the Li River softly rustled by, with the continuous mountain range veiled in a light mist, as if narrating ancient stories.
Zh: 夏日的阳光洒在河面上，闪烁着温暖的光芒。
En: The summer sunlight danced on the river’s surface, glittering with a warm glow.
Zh: 丽娟正在画她钟爱的景色，捕捉自然的美丽。
En: Lijuan was painting the scenery she loved, capturing the beauty of nature.
Zh: 不远处，她的家人正聚集在一起，欢声笑语不断。
En: Not far away, her family was gathered together, with laughter and chatter filling the air.
Zh: 丽娟叹了口气，心中却有些沉重。
En: Lijuan sighed, yet her heart felt a bit heavy.
Zh: 她是家族中唯一的艺术家，而他们大多从事生意。
En: She was the only artist in the family, while most of them were engaged in business.
Zh: 上次家庭聚会，她感到非常孤单，因为没有人理解她的艺术梦。
En: At the last family gathering, she felt extraordinarily lonely because no one understood her artistic dream.
Zh: “丽娟！”一个熟悉的声音打断了她的思绪。
En: "Lijuan!" A familiar voice interrupted her thoughts.
Zh: 是她的表哥，魏。
En: It was her cousin, Wei.
Zh: 他朝她走来，脸上带着微笑，手中提着一杯茶。
En: He walked towards her with a smile on his face, holding a cup of tea in his hand.
Zh: 他是家中的骄傲，事业有成，备受尊崇。
En: He was the pride of the family, successful in his career and highly respected.
Zh: 魏走到她身边，递给丽娟茶，说：“画得真好。
En: Wei approached her, handed Lijuan the tea, and said, "It's beautifully painted.
Zh: 我们家族需要这样的多样性。”
En: Our family needs such diversity."
Zh: 丽娟微微一笑，接过茶。
En: Lijuan smiled slightly as she accepted the tea.
Zh: 但她知道魏今天并不是来欣赏她的画的。
En: But she knew that Wei was not here today just to appreciate her painting.
Zh: 果然，魏坐下来，语气变得认真：“表妹，家里都希望你能加入家族生意。
En: As expected, Wei sat down, his tone turning serious, "Cousin, the family hopes you can join the family business.
Zh: 这是我们的传统。”
En: It's our tradition."
Zh: 丽娟看着眼前的画，心中矛盾重重。
En: Lijuan looked at the painting in front of her, her heart filled with conflict.
Zh: 家庭给她的期待仿佛一座无形的山，压得她喘不过气。
En: The expectations her family placed on her felt like an invisible mountain, leaving her breathless.
Zh: 但她心底那份对艺术的热爱如漓江般绵延不绝，她不想放弃。
En: Yet, her deep love for art flowed like the Li River, unending.
Zh: “魏，我明白家族的重要性，但我不想放弃艺术。”丽娟轻声道，声音略带颤抖。
En: "Wei, I understand the importance of family, but I don't want to give up art," Lijuan said softly, her voice slightly trembling.
Zh: 她在努力寻找合适的语言，表达自己的内心。
En: She was trying to find the right words to express her heart.
Zh: 魏沉默了一会儿，看着远处的山水，陷入沉思。
En: Wei remained silent for a moment, looking at the distant landscape, lost in thought.
Zh: 他从未听过丽娟如此诚恳地表达自己。
En: He had never heard Lijuan express herself so sincerely.
Zh: “丽娟，其实我一直羡慕你的自由。”魏轻声说，语气中有些不舍和羡慕，“我喜欢生意，但有时候也想像你一样，随心所欲。”
En: "Lijuan, actually, I’ve always envied your freedom," Wei said softly, with a hint of reluctance and admiration in his tone, "I like business, but sometimes I wish I could be like you and do whatever I want."
Zh: 丽娟惊讶地望着魏，她没想到他会这样说。
En: Lijuan was surprised to hear Wei say this; she never imagined he felt this way.
Zh: 她一直以为魏是完美的，但原来，他也有自己的苦楚。
En: She had always thought he was perfect, but it turned out he had his own troubles.
Zh: “谢谢你，魏。”丽娟微微一笑，目光坚定，“我会找到平衡点，既保持家庭的纽带，也遵从自己的内心。”
En: "Thank you, Wei." Lijuan smiled slightly, her gaze firm, "I will find a balance, maintaining family ties while following my own heart."
Zh: 魏点点头，他看到了丽娟眼中的坚定。
En: Wei nodded, seeing the determination in Lijuan's eyes.
Zh: 那是一种他一直没有的勇气。
En: It was a courage he never had.
Zh: 两人站在河边，对着远方的山水，心中的桎梏已然解开。
En: The two stood by the river, looking at the distant mountains and water, their internal shackles now released.
Zh: 漓江的水依旧缓缓流淌，带走了忧虑和不安，留下的是彼此的理解与支持。
En: The water of the Li River continued to flow gently, carrying away worries and unease, leaving behind mutual understanding and support.
Zh: 丽娟和魏都知道，这次的家庭聚会，让他们不再仅仅是亲人，而是互相理解的朋友。
En: Lijuan and Wei both knew that this family gathering made them more than just relatives; they became friends who understood each other.
