บท 547: Gu Lang Sequel

I had fallen for a girl.

I intended to return to my hometown and earn more silver to marry her.

But when I came back, her baby was already giggling at me.

I grew up depending on my sister, our uncle felt sorry for us and allowed us to shepherd his sheep.

Those shepherding days passed quickly, I enjoyed sleeping under the open sky, watching the sheep roaming freely. They seemed happy, yet none of them were mine.

My sister grew up, but I didn't have enough silver to trade for a taller horse for her, only two sheep.

The dowry for my sister was too meagre, I didn't want her to suffer after she got married.

A fellow villager told me, I could become a trader.

I could take our local products and head south, our products could fetch a good price in Central Plains.

With the money, I could buy many sheep, and trade a sturdy horse for my sister.

I took my silver to purchase several goods, then bought two not-so-robust camels.
