Manbao then asked, "That was the first question, what's the second?"
Bai Shanbao and Bai Erlang exchanged glances and shook their heads together.
Manbao glanced at the sun outside with Bai Shanbao; seeing its brilliance remain unchanged, yet lacking the scorching feel, she knew evening was approaching and perhaps the sun would soon set.
So Bai Shanbao said, "Let's go consult our teacher."
Bai Erlang was reluctant, "But aren't we having class tomorrow?"
Manbao insisted, "Let's still ask. Later we need to come back to settle the accounts and divide the money."
Outnumbered two to one, Bai Erlang had to give in.
Mr. Zhuang was at the Bai Family's neighboring residence, having tea with Old Master Bai, preparing to dine together later.
Seeing the three children approaching with the account book in hands, Mr. Zhuang exchanged a knowing smile with Old Master Bai.
