With market day approaching, an early hunt was indeed necessary.
Asher Ryder cleared the bowl Ewan had just finished eating from. As he washed it, he said, "We should probably wrap up our sales and head back a bit early today, then go straight up the mountain."
The path they took to their trading spot at the edge of the fields passed by Simon's house. When they stopped to call for him, they also took the chance to tell Wyatt about going up the mountain. As a result, their household became a bit busier. Fortunately, the fields didn't require too much watering during this period.
Ewan and Asher Ryder were about to leave when they were called back. Ewan looked at Thelma and greeted her shyly. Thelma smiled at Ewan, clicking her tongue in admiration: "Haven't seen you for a few days, and you've gotten even prettier, Ewan."
Ewan could only smile bashfully and thank her.
