Chapter 203 - 203: Rescuing the Sheep
“Dew is natural water vapor. It’s beneficial to the growth of crops. Why would a lamb have diarrhea after eating it?”
It was quite surprising that Qi Yan could say such a thing, as if she was quite professional in this aspect.
However, Meng Chuyuan did not completely agree with Qi Yan’s point of view. She had no experience in grazing before, but there were some principles that were easy to understand. “Agricultural crops don’t have digestive organs. How can they be compared to lambs? Morning dew is formed from vapor in the lower atmosphere. I don’t have to say this, right? It contains impurities in the air. All kinds of bacteria and microorganisms are mixed together. It’s very unclean.”
“…”
[No matter what the reason is, there’s indeed something wrong with the lamb’s body.]
[Perhaps many people will think that the morning dew is a good thing. It can be used to make wine, tea, and so on. However, it’s easy to ignore the impact and destruction caused by the pollution of the current environment.]
[I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel like I’m watching a debate match.]
[Sister Meng is right! Dew might be helpful for plant growth, but lambs need to digest what they eat.]
[I can only say that Qi Yan has some brains, but not much. She still wants to fight Sister Meng with her low IQ?]
After Meng Chuyuan and Qi Yan’s heated discussion, the production team gradually realized the seriousness of the matter. They quickly contacted the shepherd to come over and take a look at the situation of the lambs.
After all, these sheep were borrowed by the production team from the local shepherd. If anything really happened, not to mention compensation, just the audiences that were online were enough to denounce them publicly.
Not long after, the shepherd rushed over from home. When he saw that two of his lambs were very haggard and had diarrhea, his face was filled with heartache.
The director had no choice but to enter the scene and participate. “How are these two sheep? Is it serious?”
The director was not the only one who was nervous. The other guests did not even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that something serious would happen to their lamb.
The shepherd held a flashlight in his hand and shone the light on the two lambs. After carefully observing them, he frowned and said, “They’re a little dehydrated.”
They had raised sheep on the grassland for so many years. This kind of thing happened often. Of course, there were many ways to deal with it.
Fortunately, they discovered it early this time. Otherwise, with the young sheep’s physique and the current weather, they might not be able to last until tomorrow.
The shepherd suddenly untied the lambs and picked up the weakest one. The other sheep recognized him and obediently followed its master. “I’ll bring these lambs back first and make some medicine for their diarrhea.”
“Okay,” the director said guiltily. “If there are any special circumstances, please inform us.”
“It’s nothing serious. Don’t worry. Feed them some medicine and they’ll be fine soon.” The shepherd was an easygoing person and didn’t blame the production team for their negligence.
The other lamb was also sick, but the shepherd couldn’t carry both of them at the same time. Seeing that it could stand on its own and its symptoms were slightly lighter, he prepared to let it walk back with him.
Meng Chuyuan saw that the shepherd was struggling to carry the lamb. Although she might not be able to do this, she could not help but ask, “Uncle, do you need help?”
The shepherd smiled and declined politely. “No need. They’re very obedient and won’t run around.”
“I’m talking about finding a tool to transport the lamb. That way, we won’t have to carry it away.” Although she hadn’t found a tool that she could use yet, she could always think of a way to solve it.
The shepherd said, “There’s no need. I can still warm it up like this.”
“Then I’ll help you.” Suddenly, Lu Jinsen walked out of nowhere and appeared among the sheep.
He walked to the weak lamb, bent down, and easily held it in his arms.
[F*ck! Lu Jinsen’s actions are driving me crazy.]
[What flashed in my eyes? Ah, it’s the light of justice!]
[What kind of warm-hearted boy is Brother Sen? He suddenly got his charm.]
[Oh my god, I didn’t expect Young Master to take the initiative to help this time. The moment he carried the lamb, he was really handsome. I feel so safe in his arms.]
Seeing Lu Jinsen suddenly appear and hold the weak lamb in his arms, Meng Chuyuan was not the only one, even the guests present were shocked.
Was this still the Lu Jinsen they knew?
“Uncle, let me help you get the flashlight.” Meng Chuyuan took the flashlight from the shepherd’s hand and sent him home with Lu Jinsen.
When they returned to the shepherd’s residence, Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen watched as the shepherd fed the lambs medicine and even thoughtfully sent them back to the sheep pen.
The shepherd’s house had an indoor sheep shed. It was much warmer than the outside. After feeding the sheep medicine, he placed them here to rest and even prepared grass and water.
Seeing the lambs huddled together for warmth, the sick lambs quickly fell asleep in a corner after changing to a comfortable environment. Meng Chuyuan asked curiously, “Uncle, they should be fine, right?”
The shepherd: “I’m fine. Occasional diarrhea is a normal phenomenon.”
Hearing the shepherd’s words, they were relieved.
Seeing that it was time for the lamb to rest, they came out of the sheep shed and sat in the shepherd’s house for a while.
In the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Meng Chuyuan brought up the cause of the lamb’s illness. “They accidentally ate dew grass two days ago. Could it have something to do with this?”
“That’s possible. Some sheep are fine if they eat it once in a while. If their constitution is poor, they might have diarrhea.”
They usually did not graze so early. They usually waited for the sun to rise before letting the sheep out and tried not to let them eat dew grass.
On the other hand, perhaps due to the weather, the shepherd couldn’t tell the cause of the lamb’s real diarrhea.
Meng Chuyuan smiled faintly. “I see.”
That meant that her guess was correct.
The shepherd hummed softly and even expanded Meng Chuyuan’s knowledge. “We can’t let a pregnant sheep eat dew grass. It might easily miscarry.”
[Oh my god!! It turns out that dew grass is so lethal that it can even make ewe miscarry.]
[I learned some common knowledge from Sister Meng again. I’m really in love.]
[Didn’t you notice that this is clearly Qi Yan and Liao Jiake’s group’s lamb? In the end, Sister Meng and Young Master are the ones who are concerned about the lamb. What are they doing? They don’t have any sense of responsibility at all.]
[Wuwuwu, it’s a good thing that she’s not a pregnant sheep. If she had a miscarriage, how big of a loss would it be? Miss Qi is really… She almost got into trouble again.]
“Uncle, it’s getting late. We should go back.” Meng Chuyuan and Lu Jinsen sat for a while. When they saw that the live-stream was almost ending, they left.
“Alright.” The shepherd nodded and sent them out of the house.
Meng Chuyuan waved her hand and said, “Rest early. We’ll come and see the lamb tomorrow.”
