Once upon a time, there was a child named Zhang San, who kept many sheep at home, but he did things in a sloppy way.

One day, a hole collapsed in the railing on the sheep pen. When Zhang San's neighbor saw it, he reminded him to fix the sheep pen quickly, and he shook his head and said, "There's only a small hole, it doesn't matter, we'll fix it in a few days." The neighbor had no choice but to walk away.

When Zhang San was ready to repair the fence of the sheep pen, by the way to see how the little baby lambs grow, found that the sheep ran off a lot, there are not a few left, he saw this scene, can not help but sadly cried out: "My sheep? Wow ...... wow ......"

An old man heard Zhang San's cries, so he came over and asked him with concern: "What's wrong with you? Crying so hard? I can't sleep because of the noise." Zhang San, with tears in his eyes, told the old man what had happened, and the old man, hearing this, said to Zhang San with a smile, "Your sheep have disappeared because the hole in the fence on the sheepfold was repaired too late. Once you realize it, you have to repair it in time, otherwise the sheep will run away one by one, and it's not too late for you to repair it now, and you can still save the rest of the sheep." Zhang San suddenly came to his senses, thanked the old man, picked up the hammer, and repaired the fence on the sheep pen firmly.

From then on, Zhang San's family never had many more sheep, and he completely changed this bad habit of procrastination. Although Zhang San lost a lot of sheep, but he learned a great lesson from this incident, and since then he has developed a good habit of correcting his mistakes.
