It's the first day of winter, and the snow is beginning to fall. The art students at the studio are waiting for the competition to end so they can go home and do their homework. One of the students is from the town of liyang, and he tells the story of how his school won first place in the competition last year. The other student is from a town called linjiang, which means "little river." The two of them talk about the competition and the fact that there are no art students from their town. The teacher gives the students who took the day off from the competition a day off, and they go home to wash their hands in the cold water. When they come back, the teacher tells them that it's their big brother who's been washing their hands, and that they should shave his hair a bit more to make him look more like his brother. He also tells the students that their family's genes are strong, which makes them look just like their parents.
