About This Novel
The place name Erxianju is quite nice, a bit poetic. Thirty years ago, I settled in the ancient city of Rehe, and this was the first place I knew and remembered. But understanding and remembering have nothing to do with poetry and painting, nor does it have anything to do with the fact that there is a small railway station there, nor does it have anything to do with the fact that there is a well-preserved large stone bridge built in the Kangxi year next to the small station. Speaking of which, the relevant thing is that there is a pot sticker shop next to Dashiqiao. It's better to tell the truth, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. I was an employee of that pot sticker shop at the time, wearing a smoky white muslin hat and overalls stained with oily twists. I first sold pot stickers, then baked them and added ashes from the pot. This shop had a new revolutionary name after the Cultural Revolution (it seemed to be called Xiangyang Restaurant), but no one called it, and everyone called it Erxianju Pot Sticker Shop. Place name and store name: they were called together. The Guotie Shop is a time-honored brand and an old house.
