Bitter Water Talla
by Wen Yajun
About This Novel
Speaking of the simplicity of Sanna Town, there are many simple folk customs that are still followed. For example, at the ferry on the Yarkand River, there is no charge for ferrying wooden boats. As for who paid boatman Yao Shuanshuan for the ferry, no one has asked, nor has Yao Shuanshuan said it himself. From Yao Shuanshuan's predecessors to the previous generations, it has been passed down in this way. In the spring, the Yarkand River begins to melt. As the ice and snow melt, there is gradually more water. When you need to cross the river, you need someone to ferry it. Otherwise, you cannot wade across the river bed. It is not that the river is deep, but mainly because of the deep silt. People cannot drown in the water, but the silt can suck people into the water and choke them to death.
