Li picks up a fan, on which is painted a landscape that echoes the beautiful scenery of Jiuzhaigou.Zh: 明注视着扇子，似乎回到了小时候与奶奶一起看画册的情景。En: Ming gazes at the fan, seemingly transported back to the times when he looked at art books with his grandmother.Zh: 那时，他们坐在小院中，奶奶耐心地为他讲解每一幅画。En: Back then, they would sit in their little courtyard, and his grandmother would patiently explain each painting to him.Zh: “这就是我要找的。”明微笑着说。En: "This is what I was looking for," Ming says with a smile.Zh: 他心中感到无比满足，将扇子小心翼翼地包好。En: He feels immensely satisfied as he carefully wraps the fan.Zh: 李也很开心，祝福他在清明节能找到与奶奶心灵的沟通。En: Li is also happy and wishes him success in finding a spiritual connection with his grandmother during Qingming Festival.Zh: 随着市场的人流，明走出市场。En: Flowing with the crowd, Ming leaves the market.Zh: 他抬头望去，天空湛蓝，阳光灿烂。En: He looks up, and the sky is a clear blue, the sunshine bright.Zh: 此刻，他感觉更加贴近自己的文化与传统。En: At this moment, he feels a closer connection to his culture and traditions.Zh: 明知道，这不仅是一把普通的扇子，而是他与奶奶之间永恒的纽带，也是对她最好的纪念。En: Ming knows this is not just an ordinary fan, but an eternal link between him and his grandmother, and the best tribute to her.Zh: 故事就在这里结束，但明知道，他与奶奶的故事将继续在心中延续。En: The story ends here, but Ming knows that his story with his grandmother will continue on in his heart.
