The Water Sheep of Han Boren's Family
by Han Xudong
About This Novel
The sheep of the Boren family are water sheep, which are ewes. Water sheep is the term for northern Anhui. People in northern Anhui are very interesting. Except for chickens and dogs, which are divided into male and female, other animals have their own explanations. For example, the male is called Lao Jian or Yak, and the female is called La Niu. The male donkey is called donkey, and the female donkey is grass donkey. Of course, the mule must be distinguished from these animals. The mule is a hybrid. It does the most tiring work and produces the most strength. The people in northern Anhui have not given it another name. Regardless of whether it is a male or a female, it cannot give birth or raise. The Koreans say that a person has no ability and often use a idiom to describe him, saying that he is a mule - just a decoration.
