The saltwater pond is surrounded by rural areas on one side and cities on the other. Decades of entanglement over the fate of two families and three generations bounded by the pond disappeared as the colorful sky over the saltwater pond disappeared. The novel was written in the mid-1970s. My (Deng Chaoyang) mother Pu Zhaodi went to Xiao Carpenter's house in Tangxi to ask for an explanation because of the whereabouts of her mother-in-law's coffin. This started the various intersections between the Pu Zhaodi family in the east of Tangdong and the Huang Zhaodi family in the west of Tangxi for decades. The birth of his younger brother Deng Dongsheng and his absurd behavior, as well as the disappearance of Huang Zhaodi's son Haofu, once again caused waves. Times are changing with each passing day, which has affected the fate of people in the east and west of Tangtang. The cement factory, carbon black factory, and sulfuric acid factory that symbolized various weather conditions have closed down one after another. The salt water pond has ushered in good weather, and the two families have therefore taken completely different paths.
