"Brother, what have you been busy with lately? I see you running around outside every day…"
Li Yuechan, who was herding a pair of sheep towards the town, saw a familiar figure ahead on the road; she hurriedly followed.
Li Muyang, who was looking at a map in his hands, heard his sister's voice and stopped by the side of the road, waiting for her to catch up.
Watching Li Yuechan, reeking of the animals, jingling her bell and driving the flock, Li Muyang looked puzzled.
"How come you're herding sheep?"
Previously, Li Yuechan had been assigned the menial task of sewing animal hides. Though boring, it was relatively leisurely work.
Now, suddenly, she was herding sheep…
Herding sheep was by no means a desirable job.
As Li Yuechan approached, Li Muyang caught that familiar stench of blood.
—He was, after all, an experienced shepherd.
Given the relationship between Li Muyang and steward Wang Fatty, such dirty and tiring work shouldn't have been assigned to Li Yuechan.
