About This Novel
Xie Guan stood in front of the bedroom window. Dusk has deepened, and there are still a few sunset glows on Lashi Mountain in the distance. To the south, the towering Wenbi Peak looks like a black penholder. Outside the window is a vegetable garden with apple trees growing on the four corners. A yellow hen fluttered its wing feathers across the green vegetable patch and ran towards the wall. The little black dog raised by the landlady was chasing after me, wagging its tail. The chicken coop in the corner was moved to the yard three days ago. The yellow hen flew up to the apple tree, jumped onto the courtyard wall, trotted all the way to the garden gate, and flew into the small courtyard with a swish. The little black dog barked at the garden gate. Xie Guan heard the landlady walking down the stairs from upstairs, which was a wooden staircase with a rattling sound. The door of Xie Guan's bedroom is next to the garden gate. The eldest father walked to the garden gate, coughed, opened the iron buckle, and pushed the garden gate open. The little black dog jumped over the threshold, circled between the eldest father's legs, and bit into the hem of the eldest father's clothes without letting go.
