Chapter 158
Shi Wen, "It's not a matter of whether I can bear it or not, it's just that I suddenly thought of this and saw them. They started from the same point, but had different fates. Sometimes it's quite unpleasant."
As a farmer, Shi Wen don't usually like to think about these kinds of questions, because it's easy to get lost in them.
However, there are times when he inevitably gets touched and starts thinking about animals and food.
When he asked the question, Yan Kexing's expression turned somewhat serious.
Yan Kexing: "I think all life can become food for other life, but humans have the agency to make arrangements for other life according to their own will."
Yan Kexing: "Fate isn't so unfair. Death is eternal, and all life is equal before death. We will all go to that end. The only difference is that we are not sure how we will die."
Shi Wen was stunned for a long time, not expecting his answer.
After a while, Shi Wen said, "I understand a little."
Yan Kexing gently tapped Shi Wen's skin over his heart. "The world is inherently unfair; in a sense, unfairness is the essence of the world. Yet all unfairness is erased by a great fairness. All we can do is be true to our conscience."
Yan Kexing said softly, "One only needs to act with a clear conscience."
Shi Wen, "I can confirm that."
He cared for all the animals on the ranch with utmost care while they were alive, never mistreating them when they died, and never wasting food.
He has a clear conscience.
Shi Wen let out a long sigh and said, "I've always wondered if this is a bit too cruel to these fat-tailed sheep?"
He had been thinking about this problem, which is why he hadn't weaned the fat-tailed sheep or made any further arrangements.
Tian Xiaoyu has said several times that his fat-tailed sheep are very well trained and can be delivered directly to customers without any problem.
Sending out a batch in advance allows for timely adjustments should any problems arise, preventing large-scale issues from occurring after a large batch is sent out.
Yan Kexing: "I think you should have your own answer in your heart now."
Shi Wen looked at him and said, "Yes."
With a sigh, Shi Wen said, "It's so good to have you here. I don't think others can understand me, but you definitely can."
Yan Kexing nodded. "Yes, I understand you, just as you understand me."
Shi Wen, "The luckiest thing in my life is meeting you; otherwise, I would be very lonely."
Yan Kexing: "Me too."
The two looked at each other and both smiled.
Then, without knowing who made the first move, they leaned in and kissed.
Chapter 158
There's always so much going on at the ranch, Shi Wen so busy he's practically working himself to the bone. Before he knew it, New Year's Day was over and it was almost February, and the end of the year was just around the corner.
It wasn't until Shi Wen Gong Jiang the other two arrived with gifts that Shi Wen realized winter break had already begun.
They are preparing to go home for the Chinese New Year.
They Shi Wen greeted with, "This year has gone by so quickly!"
"Who says otherwise?" Ge Yue leaned closer to Shi Wen, blinking as she asked, "Brother Shi, I think the lambs are almost trained. Should we send them to their new home?"
"Yes, we'll do." Shi Wen looked up and smiled. "I recently had a lawyer draft a new agreement, and once it's signed, we can send them to their new home."
Lin Chengqian asked curiously, "What agreement?"
Shi Wen, "It's an agreement regarding the accidental death of a lamb and the need to transport its body back to the ranch; we'll cover all the costs."
Ge Yue nodded repeatedly. "That's good. This will prevent those with ill intentions from doing so to the greatest extent possible."
Shi Wen, "Yes, that's what we think too."
Ge Yue said she wanted to see the trained lambs, Shi Wen told her that the lambs were with Tian Xiaoyu and she could just go there.
Ge Yue immediately said, "Then I'll go over there now."
Shi Wen: "It's right outside the livestock shed."
Ge Yue: "I understand!"
Lin Chengqian, eager to try, said, "Then I'll go take a look too."
Before Shi Wen could answer, he took off running and went outside.
Shi Wen looked at Gong Jiang was the only one standing in the room.
Gong Jiang nodded, and although he didn't say anything, Shi Wen knew that he also wanted to go see it.
Shi Wen could only say, "Never mind, let's go together, we can chat some more."
When they arrived, Ge Yue was already holding the lamb.
The lamb, nestled in her arms, cried out loudly, "Baa--, baa--"
The lamb in Lin Chengqian's arms remained quiet.
Gong Jiang: "Ge Yue, did you hurt the little lamb in your arms?"
"No," Tian Xiaoyu explained, "The little lamb in her arms has a bad temper."
Gong Jiang then nodded.
Ge Yue happily said to Gong Jiang, "Senior brother, this little lamb is so soft, warm, and fragrant! Come and hold it!"
Shi Wen, "Our lambs really do have very little body odor."
Gong Jiang stepped forward and gently patted the lamb's head. The lamb shook its head uncomfortably, shaking off Gong Jiang's hand.
Ge Yue burst into laughter. "I told you it had a bad temper."
Gong Jiang turned his head and took the little lamb from Lin Chengqian's arms.
Lin Chengqian held the lamb, his eyes closed, and said, "It's so cute, so gentle, and so warm. It feels so comfortable to hold. I want to have one too."
Shi Wen, "If you want to raise them, just tell me when you're ready. You always have priority with me."
Tian Xiaoyu raised her hand. "Brother Shi, what about me?"
Shi Wen smiled and said, "You get the same treatment."
These lambs have actually all been pre-ordered; eleven members have placed orders for them.
Baoye A Sai also ordered one.
