Lu Aiguo lazed inside the house, not showing any intentions of heading out even after Lu Songyuan and Wen Xiuqing came back with the sheep and chicken they'd went to buy.
Seeing Lu Aiguo sprawled on the bed, Wen Xiuqing curiously asked, "Didn't you go out?"
Lu Aiguo abruptly sat up, grinning as he replied, "There's no rush, I can still go tomorrow. The fireworks are not till the 30th, we've got time." After saying this, he put on his shoes to go check out the sheep Lu Songyuan bought.
Lu Songyuan had purchased a full-grown male Kazakh Fat-Tailed sheep, a breed native to the Northwest. This variety of sheep was known for its tender meat, rich in flavor without being greasy, and was intensely savory without any musky odor. Some even joked that these sheep excreted herbal pills and urinated health tonic liquid.
The one Lu Songyuan had bought was as big as a calf, and probably weighed around two or three hundred catties.
