📖 Synopsis:
In her youth, Li Juan, for the sake of livelihood, followed her family into the deep mountain pastures of Altai in northern Xinjiang.
In several rarely visited "corners" of Altai: Kawutu, Balartsi, Shayihangbulake, Qiaotou, and Akkhara, her strong mother, elderly grandmother, resilient uncle, and Li Juan's family together supported a semi-mobile tailor shop and general store. They moved with the herders and their cattle and sheep, following water and grass, struggling but not without happiness, making a living between yurts and temporary shelters.
——From vast grasslands to barren deserts, from boundless Gobi to desolate ruins, wherever there were herders, there was their livelihood. Simple stoves, makeshift shelves, a miraculous goldfish that survived; the difficult, solitary, and poor days of constant migration were written by Li Juan with brilliant inspiration, brimming with a serene warmth, peace, and joy.
