Meong: The Sacrifices of a Son in a Small Village – AI Generated Video | Hailuo AI

Generate & Play Hailuo AI video：In a small village surrounded by pine forests and clear rivers, lived a cat named Meong with his father in a simple wooden house. Meong's father, once known as the village school's literature teacher, now lay weak due to a lung disease that made it hard for him to breathe. Every morning, Meong woke up before sunrise. He swept the floor, prepared hot water, and placed rice porridge by his father's bed. Holding a cup of hot tea, Meong's father would always say, "Meong, don't forget to go to school, dear. You have to be smarter than your father." Meong would just nod and smile faintly. But after leaving the house, he didn't go to school. Instead of studying in the classroom, Meong sneaked to the eastern part of the village, to a new village hall construction project. There, with a oversized helmet and worn-out boots, Meong worked as a small-time contractor. He helped lift bricks, mix cement, and clean up debris. All of this was done secretly. He didn't want his father to know that he chose to work instead of going to school. "If I go to school, who will buy medicine for my father?" Meong murmured under the shadow of a building pillar. "If I study, who will pay for the masseur every Friday?" Though his small body often trembled with fatigue and his feet were calloused, Meong never complained. He accepted his daily wage—sometimes only two pieces of salted fish and a handful of change. But that was enough to buy medicine for his father and a little warm milk before bedtime. Until one day, when heavy rain poured over the village, Meong's father felt a more severe tightness than usual. He tried to get up and open the window, hoping to see Meong returning from school. But what he saw was his son carrying cement, his clothes soaked, and his body trembling under the rain. That's when the reality stabbed his heart. Meong's father fainted that night. The next day, in the village hospital, after regaining consciousness, Meong's father realized the truth.
