The wolf got in through the hole and took the sheep away.

狼從洞裏鉆進去,把羊叼走了。

His neighbor advised him: "Hurry up and fix the sheepfold!"

鄰居勸他:“趕緊把羊圈脩補壱下吧!”

But he said: "The sheep is already lost, what's the point of repairing the sheepfold?"

但他卻說:“羊已經丟了,脩羊圈有甚麼用呢?” 

The next morning, he found that another sheep was missing.

第二天早上,他發現羊又少了壱隻。

It turned out that the wolf got in through the hole again and took a sheep away.

原來狼又從洞裏鉆進去,叼走了壱隻羊。

He regretted not listening to the neighbor's advice and immediately repaired the sheepfold.

From then on, his sheep were never lost again.

從此他的羊再也冇有丟過。

Fix the problem promptly to prevent bigger losses.
