Chapter 9: Where Are the Sheep?
“What, What will you do if we cannot find those sheep? ”
The barefaced Feng does not know why he feels absolutely terrified of Jin Weiwei’ staring.
This tricky girl is totally different from the past. Will she have some other plan?
Is it true that her sheep are not infected with the plague?
No way.
That sick sheep is highly infectious, and is put into her sheepfold by himself..
When Feng is muttering, little Rich and the veterinarian he invites just come back and meet with the village head at the gate of the courtyard.
Jin Weiwei feels nervous.
That’s too bad! Why does little Rich come back at this moment?
How could she explain the coming of the veterinarian? Maybe she could throw dust in their eyes, and hides the occupation of the veterinarian first.
However, Weiwei hasn’t said a word yet, the village head strides forward to the veterinarian.
“Wow, isn’t this the most famous doctor Jia in our town? What bothers you to come to our village?”
Oh my god, the village head has already known him.
Weiwei is crying in her heart. Well, little Rich, I just ask him to invite a veterinarian, why does he invite the most famous one? Owing to the popularity of the veterinarian, she could not carry out her plan now.
“What else could I do? This boy said his sheep are sick, and I come to heal them.” Doctor Jia doesn’t know what has happened, and answers with a smile.
At his words Jin Weiwei feels hopeless. But Feng is desperately happy now.
“I am almost cajoled by this bad girl and believe in her lie. Now the veterinarian is coming, how could she explain anymore! Hum, if your sheep are not sick, why do you find a veterinarian?”
“Give way, give way! Let the veterinarian heal their sheep!” Feng shouts arrogantly.
How could she make an explanation now?
Jin Weiwei clenches her teeth and knits her brows. She could not lose her momentum. Anyway, the sheep have already disappeared. So even if she firmly denies the truth, Feng couldn’t find any evidence to doubt her. At this moment, she must not be afraid.
“Wait, you haven’t said the result if you fail to find out the ill sheep. So, what will you do?” Jin Weiwei stops Feng and asks.
“Haha, I will be at your disposal at your will.” Feng answers confidently. Now even if the wager is his life, he will agree without hesitation.
“OK, deal!” JIn Weiwei makes a gesture that no one could understand, and lets people in.
Feng leads the crowd into the house, ignoring the old village head, and adroitly finds the sheepfold.
However, the truth sabotages his plan.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
“Where are the sheep?”
“Facing the empty sheepfold, people are all dumbfound. Not to mention the sick sheep, there is no sheep at all.
The village head and doctor Jia, who follow the crowd, come in later. They also feel confused. Even little Rich doesn’t know what has happened.
Now all people turn to Weiwei, since she is the only person who could give an explanation.
Where? Where are the sheep in your sheepfold?” Feng asks in anger.
“I sold them all!” Weiwei answers calmly.
“Sold them? Are you kidding? Who will buy those ill sheep?”
“Feng, if you keep on your false accusation without any evidence, believe it or not, I will beat the crap out of you!” Jin Weiwei is also a little angry and waves her fist to Feng.
Feng believes so, for Jin Weiwei is famous for her extraordinary power in the village and could even kill pigs ang sheep when she was ten.
Feng moves a little to the village head and says: “Hum, now before the village head, how could you tell a lie?”
“Child, how could a girl be violent? Calm down.” The village head coughs for twice and asks, “Where are the sheep in your sheepfold?”
“I just answered that I sold all of them. A few days ago, a businessman offered a high price for live sheep, and I found it could earn more than selling their meat. So, why not sell them? I sold them all!” Jin Weiwei smilingly answers.
“None of them remained?”
“Yes, none of them remained. I sold them all. The businessman was really satisfied with my sheep and wanted to buy all. There is no reason for me to refuse him.”
“That’s impossible!” Feng shouts, “I saw that there were a lot of sheep in the sheepfold just a few days ago when I came here!”
“When you came here?” Jin Weiwei catches the mistakes in his words, points at his nose and questions, “Why did you come to my sheepfold? Say it!”
“I, I, I just came and saw your sheep by the way. Any problem?” Feng doesn’t know how to explain that.
“Saw what? Don’t you have a sheepfold?” Weiwei constantly asks, “Why you suddenly invite the village head to my house today? You have done something to my sheep and intend to let them suffer from plague, don’t you? Tell the truth!”
“You, you make a nonsense! I haven’t done anything, nor was I related to the plague! Well, you little child shouldn’t tell a lie!”
Jin Weiwei’s pungent questions make Feng panic and his face is as red as pork liver.
In such situation, people will easily know the truth that Feng probably sneaked into the Jin’s sheepfold and played a trick. He must be confident of his plan. Otherwise, he won’t invite the village head to come here.
However, they don’t know what Jin Weiwei intends to do. Whether her sheep are sick or did she sell all her sheep?
“Who’s little child? I’ve already got married and this is my husband.” Jin Weiwei pushes Rich to her side and says, “Besides, I’m not telling a lie. You just said that you have been here and saw the sheep a few days ago.”
“No, I’ve made a mistake, I haven’t been here these days.” Feng hurriedly explains.
“Dear village head, you’ve heard that he derecognizes his own words just before people. For you, do you believe in his words? How could you believe him again?”
Jin Weiwei lets the village head handle this chaotic situation.
The village head is, though kind, priggish and opinionated. When someone tries to cajole, he will always come to me and find troubles. I should also remind him today.
Listening to Weiwei’s words, the village head has to make clear his attitude: “Feng, it is terrible that today you come to Jin’s house and make troubles. You told me that the sheep had plague and I must check the evidence here in the sheepfold. But now I come, where is the evidence? Show it to me.”
Evidence? The evidence that he said is those sheep! But where are they now? How could those sheep which he saw with his own eyes suddenly disappear?
Feng almost tears his hair out, but suddenly he finds the doctor Jia, who is just confused and stands by. He hurriedly points at Jia and says:
“Village head, he is the evidence! If she doesn’t have ill sheep, why does she invite veterinarian to her house? And even the richest doctor in our town? It is obvious that her sheep are sick, very sick!”
Jin Weiwei’s mind suddenly turns nervous.
That’s too bad! They turn their attention to the doctor again.
Just now she deliberately questions Feng. On the one hand, she is to counterattack his attack. On the other hand, she is to distract their attention on doctor Jia.
However, they turn back again.
“Yes, who will invite doctor if no one is sick?”People begin to question.
