"Why aren't you eating more?" Lu Zhanguo asked Gu Xiaobei, noting that he had only had one piece.
"It has a strong earthy taste, which I don't like," Gu Xiaobei replied.
"When there's time, I'll take you up the mountain to hunt for wild chickens. The meat tastes good."
Gu Xiaobei pouted, "You are a liar! You promised to take me for a barbecue, but we haven't gone yet."
"Okay, we'll go barbecuing this Sunday, and might as well see if we can spot any wild chickens," said Lu Zhanguo. He chuckled at Gu Xiaobei's pouty expression.
"You better not lie this time. Let's invite Chen Gang and Jiujiu, and also call Li Fengmei and the others. It will be more fun with more people," Said Gu Xiaobei, who believed that the more the merrier.
"Okay." Suddenly, an idea sprang to Lu Zhanguo's mind.
On Saturday, Gu Xiaobei asked Jiujiu to come home after school and join him for lunch at Li Fengmei's. He also gave Jiujiu the house key, asking him to take a nap after lunch before heading to school.
