My Loyal and Lovely Husband

Chapter 8: Your Sheep Suffer from Plague



“Silly pig, you are good at hooking up women but not doing business, right? You are not as useful as a pig!”

A succession of roars comes from Feng’s house. Li is roaring and whipping her husband.

Feng dare not explain nor resist. Since that day he took his lambs home and found he sustained losses in this business, so his wife got annoyed at his silly transaction and abused him every day.

“Why are you staying here? Go and feed the sheep!”Li kicks Feng off to the ground.

Feng is too afraid to speak a word, and hurriedly feeds the sheep. He cuts up the grass with a straw cutter, however, what he really wants to cut, is Jin Weiwei.

Suddenly, a grazing lamb starts vomiting without any omen. Feng is scared, and draws the lamb out in hurry.

He opens the lamb’s eyes and finds they are yellow and dark. He cries in his heart that it would be a plague.

“Bad girl, if it were not for your trick, I wouldn’t buy those lambs at such a high price and even forget to check their health.”

The more Feng thinks, the angrier he is. Regretting for the payment, he scolds Jin Weiwei and even her ancestors as much as he can.

However, watching the sick lamb, Feng suddenly comes up with a wicked idea to punish Jin Weiwei.

Compared with Feng’s Meat Shop, Jin’s business is getting better and better, especially with the help of the handsome Rich. Soon the whole village knows that there is a handsome salesman in Jin’s Meat Shop, and girls and ladies all come to buy meat in order to see him.

Her Rich is not only pretty but also brilliant. Though he never speaks too much, his only advice can just help Weiwei. For example, on the day they bought lambs, he figured out the highest price they could pay, guaranteed the profit and stopped the bidding price in time. It is joyful to let Feng come to grief.

However, the little beggar also has some shortcomings, that is, he usually looks wooden. People who are not familiar with him must think he is silly, but Jin Weiwei knows the truth. On the contrary, she feels that Rich may have suffered from some dilemma, like amnesia.

But Weiwei is facing financial difficulties now, otherwise, she will take Rich to see a doctor.

One day, Jin Weiwei is busy in her shop and finds Feng is sneaking across the street.

“What is this silly pig doing here? Surveying her business?”

Since Jin’s shop is abuzz with activity recently, will he sabotage her business for jealousy?

However, Feng only looks around for a while and then walks away. Jin Weiwei is too busy to follow him, but she feels uneasy.

Sure enough, in a few days, something happens.

“The lambs are sick.”

One day, little Rich finds something wrong with the lambs when he feeds them.

Jin Weiwei rushes into the sheepfold and soon notices the vomit of lambs is everywhere. It smells terrible. With a closer look, each lamb is depressed, as if it were dying.

“How could it be? They were all healthy yesterday! What should I do?” Jin Weiwei is almost crying.

“Then take them to the vet.” When Jin Weiwei is confused, the little Rich suddenly grabs her hand.

Only a few words appease Weiwei’s worry, and she clams herself down. Yes, there is no time to wait, she must treat the lambs’ disease as soon as possible.

Therefore, Weiwei hurriedly takes some silver to Rich and says: “To find a veterinarian in our town. I’ll stay here and clean up the sheepfold before all lambs get infected.”

Little Rich nods his head and says: “Don’t worry.”

And then, he tenderly pats on Weiwei’s head. Weiwei is stunned.

She deeply believes that her Rich is not a fool. How could a fool speak like him?

Jin Weiwei thinks about her guess. But before her further confirmation, Rich has already left with big strides.

“Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!”

As soon as Rich leaves, there comes a hasty but heavy knocking on the door. Weiwei knows that it is not a good thing.

“Jin Weiwei, open the door! The village head is coming!”

When she hears the gruff voice of Feng, she soon knows the intention of their visit.

Feng takes the village head to her house at this time, so he must know what has happened to her lambs and intends to kill all her lambs on the false pretenses of the village head.

The lambs got ill this very morning, and why he got the news so quickly. Is he a great God?NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Thinking of Feng’s furtive behavior before, Jin Weiwei suddenly realizes that the illness of the lambs must be related to Feng. It must be Feng’s scheme. Weiwei desperately regrets that she hasn’t noticed his trick in time and is framed by him now.

“Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!”

“Jin Weiwei, hurry up! The village head is waiting here!”

With heavier knockings, Weiwei knows she can’t hide any more.

Why hasn’t little Rich come back yet?

Jin Weiwei’s mind gets tense with a great sense of urgency.

What should I do? What should I do?

Where could she hide those lambs to avoid being killed.

Suddenly, Jin Weiwei comes up with an idea—

She remembers that last time in the broken temple, there was a magic door, which suddenly appeared and helped her in her dilemma.

“If only that magic door appears again. Dear God, have a pity on me, and let the door reappear, please.”

To her surprise, as soon as she begs, there is the magic door appearing on the wall beside the sheepfold.

“Love you, God.”

Jin Weiwei is bursting with joy and lets the ill lambs get into the door in a hurry. Closing the door and turning around, she finds the door disappears again without any trace.

“But if the door never appears again, I will on longer find my lambs.”

However, there is no time to think about this. She should first settle the trouble that Feng causes. She believes that God will help her, otherwise, the magic door won’t appear to her again and again when she needs help .

Easily cleaning the sheepfold, Jin Weiwei opens the door without haste.

“Well, Uncle Feng seems to take special care of me recently. You just came two days ago, didn’t you? Why do you invite the village head to my home again today?”

“Stop your nonsense!” Feng answers rudely. “I’ve heard that your sheep have plague –”

“The greatest nonsense!” Jin Weiwei puts her hands on her waist and does not to be outdone,”Uncle Feng, I respect you as my elder. How shameless you are to slander me here?”

“Well, it will be clear by our investigation!” Feng shouts and intends to break in.

“Wait! How could I let you get in and check my house with your will.”

“Weiwei, plague is a serious disaster, we must make it clear.”Seeing this, the village head says in a serious tone.

“My dear village head, I know the harmfulness of plague. If I cover up the truth of the plague, I’m willing to be punished. But what if I was framed by others?”

Weiwei implies that Feng shouldn’t be a simple on-looker.

“Well……” the village head looks at Feng and says, “If there is some one who frames you, I will punish him.”

“OK. I believe the village head is the most impartial person.”

Jin Weiwei squints her eyes and smiles. She opens the door, invites the village head and others in. Feng Butcher follows up, however, Jin Weiwei stops him and sneers:

“Uncle Feng, since you’ve claimed that our sheep have plague, please find it out. As long as you can, I’ll do whatever you want. But if you can’t, then, ha ha…”
