The previous ten days have affirmed quod erat demonstrandum what Ukonniemi-ke, Halme-ke, and now Teemu already know: Katri and Aapeli's prominent proficiency at herding cattle. When Katri finally has her lunch and is able to get going, Teemu charges her the guidance of the cattle to the southern pasture along with walking them five kilometers; while Katri enjoys the nice weather as she watches the cattle do their thing, Pekka comes over for a visit to appraise her status. As if to affirm everything as hunky-dory, Aapeli rushes off into the forest after a rabbit only to be greeted with scorn from Katri who gives the rabbit to the overjoyed Pekka; after a recess for lunch, Teemu arrives to appraise Katri's progress and deliver an ominous syllabus about his wife Ulla and the north pasture that has a precipitous cliff. True to Teemu's admonition for vigilance, Ulla ultimately proves far more treacherous when Katri recounts her recent encounter with her mother Sara when she signals an interest in having Aapeli for her own oblivious to the logistical problems that it would cause Katri; while Teemu is very helpful in keeping Ulla in check, the ethical imbrogilo that Ulla visits unto Katri makes herding 300 wayward cows like Viikuna on the north pasture seem quite a tame task!!!
