Jiang Yue got down from the bed and peeked through the door with her eyes. When she saw Sanfu take some hay from under the shed, she assumed that he was going to go to the stables. Sanfu would sometimes go to the stables to see his horse at night, so it was nothing unusual. She then went back to bed and continued to sleep.
Xue Sanfu took some fodder and slowly opened the yard door. He went out and slowly closed the door behind him before going to the stables.
With the help of the moonlight, he could clearly see that the horses in the stables were sleeping on the ground. When they saw him, they immediately stood up.
Shiye's horse also stood up.
He threw all the fodder into the stables. There were still some in the stables, but the horses were probably not hungry. It was late at night, so the two horses only sniffed and did not eat at all.
He gently stroked the two horses' manes and prepared to go home to continue sleeping.
