Evan Zhao and his party left Yunzhong City, said goodbye to Elena Wei on the way, and went to the livestock farm with the foals and oxen.
Xiong Bo led the young and strong men to open the land and sow seeds. Sun Ao and more than a dozen strong women brought steamed cakes and hot water to everyone. Then they were busy checking the railings of the new enclosure and driving away the marmots that dug holes too close.
Gongsun Ao was carrying a rattan basket filled with fodder mixed with bean dregs.
Wei Qing and the three-headed men were busy cleaning the troughs and refilling the cattle and sheep with hay and water.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, everyone stopped what they were doing. Seeing Evan Zhao galloping towards them, they wanted to meet him but could not put down their work. They quickened their pace and even trotted when fetching water. By the time they reached the trough, only half of the water was left in the bucket, which made the women laugh.
