Green Grass by the River (1992)

Hsiao Tsao is a young orphan living with her cruel aunt and uncle. She has a sisterly bond with her neighbour, Ching Ching, who is being forced into a marriage with a much older man by her older brother. Desperate to escape their unfortunate circumstances, the two girls manage to run away together on the day of Ching Ching’s wedding. During their escape, they coincidentally meet Ho Shih Wei, a young university student who is also running away from his family due to an arranged marriage. After a few initial misunderstandings, the three decide to travel together. However, things become complicated when they encounter the Fu family, and the family matriarch mistakes He Shiwei for her son, Fu Yuan Kai, who died 10 years ago.
