raised her head and said Excuse me Mr Rat I can tell this is a big concern to you but it is of no business to me I cannot be bothered with it The rat turned to the pig and told him There is a rat trap in the house a rat trap in the house I am so very sorry Mr Rat sympathized the pig but there is nothing I can do about it but pray I will make sure that you are in my prayers The rat turned to the cow She said Like wow Mr Rat A rat trap I am in grave danger Duh So the rat returned to the house head down and dejected to face the farmer s rat trap alone That very night a sound was heard throughout

The snake bit the farmer s wife The farmer rushed her to the hospital She returned home with a fever Now everyone knows you treat a fever with fresh chicken soup so the farmer took his hatchet 短柄斧 to the farmyard for the soup s main ingredient His wife s sickness continued so that friends and neighbors came to sit with her around the clock To feed them the farmer killed the pig The farmer s wife did not get well She died and so many people came for her funeral that the farmer had the cow killed to provide meat for all of them to eat So the next time you hear that someone is facing a problem
