About This Novel
Sichuan slope gully area on the Loess Plain. The Muddy Water River flows through the channel. The river surface is very wide and the water is not deep. The yellow muddy water looks like a mirror from a distance. Only when you get closer can you see that the water is flowing slowly and silently. It's already the beginning of the third lunar month, and the winter ice floes on the river have long since melted away, so it won't be too cold to walk barefoot across. Shortly after dawn, a militiaman sent by the district waded across the river from the district office on the opposite side of the river to deliver a letter to our working group... The headquarters of the land reform working group in our township is located in a village on a half-slope of a ravine. There are some farmers scattered up and down the nearby slopes and inside and outside the gullies. This is an administrative village. Team Leader Wei, the new member of the working group, and I slept side by side on the earthen kang on one side of the upper room, sleeping soundly.
