???? The Blessed Mama Sheep 有福气的母羊

English Subtitles:
In a small, backward village in the north, Elder Wang makes his living by cultivating a small plot of land and raising a female sheep. His grandson Along grew up drinking sheep's milk. Although Along and the sheep are at the same age. But, it's a little old for animal. So, Along calls it Mama sheep. Mama sheep , I just cut some grass for you. You have to eat more.
“Along, did you go out and cut grass for the mother sheep?” Yes, if she eats more fresh grass, she can produce more milk. Recently mom is sick, I want to give her some nutritional supplements.
1:00
Alas, it's a pity, she is too old to produce much milk.
This year, the rice harvest in the Wang's field is poor. The New Year is imminent, but they can't afford to prepare the New Year goods.
“Dad, it's gonna be New Year. But we are running out of money to prepare for it. What can we do now?”
Um, I know, we have an awful harvest this year. We can see the bottom of the rice jar. How will we have a surplus to buy stuff for New Year??
Alas. How will we spend this New Year?
“We have nothing else of value for sale.”
The most valuable thing at the moment is this goat.
“Yea, how about we sell this female goat?
2:00
Then we can exchange it for money and heal the disease of Along's mother.”
Well, this is the only way we can do now. They decided to let Along lead the sheep into town and sell it to Butcher Wang. “Along, tomorrow at dawn, you will lead the sheep into town and sell the sheep to Wang the Butcher. I've a deal with him, this sheep can sold for 800 Bucks.”
Dad, why do you sell the mama sheep? I don't want the new clothes or candy for New Year. Please don't sell her.
“We are running out of money now, and still need money to buy drugs to heal your mother's disease. If I don't sell it, how can I afford to heal your mother's illness?” Isn't there other way?
“Along, we know you are unwilling to forsake the mama sheep.
3:00
We won't sell it if there is any other way. Along, I am sorry.” Grandpa, I understood.
On hearing this decision, Along was so sad that he was reluctant to sell the mama sheep. I am going to set off.
“Along, come back as soon as possible. Don't hang around on the road.”
All right, I will.
Sorry, mama sheep, I have no choice. Oops, it seems the storm is coming. We have to hurry. Otherwise, when weather gets turbulent, we'll be in trouble.
“Uh, why does the weather suddenly change? It looks like gonna snow soon.”
“Yea, I hope Along can get to the town sooner.
4:00
Otherwise, he will be in trouble if a storm hits halfway.” But soon, the sky became darker and cloudier, as if it was night. It wasn't long before a blizzard swept in. The snowstorm was so severe that the trail was quickly covered with snow. The blizzard obscured his vision, and he got lost. It’s so cold. I didn’t expect it to snow so heavily. What's up? Are you cold too? Let's find some place to hide for a while. Oops, where are we? We seem to be lost. Mama Sheep, we have to find a place to hide from the snow. Otherwise we might freeze to death. The snow fell heavier and heavier. In a blink of an eye, the snow had piled up very thick.
5:00
His hands were numb from the cold, and if he couldn't find a place to hide, he would freeze to death.
“Mama Sheep, I am so cold, how about you? Why is there a big pile of snow? That's great”. It turned out to be a huge haystack covered with snow.
“Mama Sheep, we are salvaged.” Along quickly dug a hole and hid in the haystack with the sheep. He blocked the entrance with hay to prevent snow or cold wind from entering. Only a small hole was left for breathing.
“Is it warmer now? Fortunately, we found this haystack. Otherwise, we would freeze to death tonight. ”
While, Along's family were anxious on seeing tons of flakes falling from the sky.
6:00
So, they hurried to search Along. However, how could they find Along who has gone astray from the road to town and was hiding in a haystack? Along, where are you? “Dad, I've looked everywhere, but there's no sign of him. I also went to ask Wang the butcher. He said he didn't see him.” Back then, we shouldn't let him go into town alone. He must have gotten lost in the blizzard.
“It is very dangerous to get lost in such heavy snow.” Yeah, he could freeze to death if he didn't find a shelter.
“Along, where are you?”
7:00
The mama sheep was not short of food in the haystack. She was lying and munching on grass. Meanwhile, without any food, Along was so hungry that his stomach was rumbling. “Mama Sheep, you're terrific, just eat grass and you'll be full.” This storm has last for entire three days. Along and mama sheep has stayed in the haystack for three days. Fortunately, mama sheep has hay to eat, and Along has milk to drink, so the two didn't starve to death in the wild. “Mana sheep, we have encountered a blizzard this time. If not for this giant haystack, we would have lost our lives.
