While tying it back, she talked to the lamb: “If I forget you outside the house, you might be picked up by wild beasts at night. We might as well eat you.”

The little lamb bleated twice, turned around, and pointed his tail at her, as if he was angry.

Yin Mingyu was amused by it, but she didn’t mind being dirty. She poked its back with her fingers, “How dare you get angry with me? When you grow more meat, I will untie you and enjoy a whole sheep feast.”

“Bah!”

Yin Mingyu raisedher brows and grabbed its soft ears, “I’m definitely going to eat you.”

“BAH!”

Xie Qin stood in the corridor and looked at her quietly, with faint amusement in his eyes.

Yin Mingyu caught a glimpse of him out of the corner of her eye and paused. It was not an illusion. Xie Qin did seem to have some weird stiffness about him.

When Xie Qin saw her looking over, he immediately returned to normal and said, “I brought the map you wanted earlier.”

Yin Mingyu stood up and followed him in. When she saw an extra piece of paper on the table, she picked it up and read it.

On the map, only the periphery of the Longyu Mountain hunting ground was drawn in detail. There were only a few places roughly marked within the hunting ground, and there were no specific routes.

Xie Qin said: “This is a royal hunting ground. It is difficult to spread the detailed map to others, so I drew this map for you.”

“Langjun drew himself?” Yin Mingyu was surprised for a moment, then lowered her head to take a look, “I just spoke about it yesterday, and it was drawn so quickly?”

Xie Qin turned his eyes away and did not reply. He only stood up and said, “Let’s freshen up and go to bed early.”

Yin Mingyu buried her head in the map, studied where to go in the next two days, and said “en” absently.

Xie Qin asked his maid to prepare water. He turned around and saw that she was still looking at it, so he walked over and took away the map.

Yin Mingyu didn’t dare to pull. She watched the map being taken away and looked up at him in confusion.

Xie Qin said lightly: “You smell like sheep, so don’t let it contaminate the map.”

Yin Mingyu immediately turned her head and sniffed. There was a faint smell, and then went to the inner room to take a shower and change clothes.

When both of them were lying on the bed, Xie Qin lowered the bed curtains, put his arms around her waist, and slowly pressed her down.

Yin Mingyu pressed up against his chest, “I just realized that my menstruation is here.”

“……” Xie Qin paused, turned over and lay back after a while, and said seriously, “I will leave more guards in the village. If you go out to play, bring more people with you. Don’t go too far.”

Yin Mingyu: “……” Sure enough, everything is stiff.

When Yin Mingyu woke up the next day, Xie Qin was still not in the room.

Madam Xie didn’t finish explaining her affairs yesterday, she asked Yin Mingyu to go to her yard to talk after dinner.

Yin Mingyu didn’t plan to go to the hunting ground today, but there were many young ladies in the hunting ground who were thinking about her and wanted to become friends with her.

Third young lady Yin Mingrui and fourth young lady Yin Mingruo did not show up at the hunting ground in order not to cause trouble. The ladies who played Cuju with Yin Mingyu had nowhere to ask about young madam Xie, so they approached Jiang Qiniang and Jiang He.

Jiang He was quite depressed because she and Yin Mingyu broke up on bad terms that day. She was not in much mood to deal with their questioning. She barely managed a few perfunctory words, then left the crowd and walked to a remote place.

The more remote the place, the easier it is to encounter shady people and things.

She was distracted at first and didn’t notice that she was walking further and further away. When she realized it, there was no one else around except her and her maid.
