Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming made their way to Dongfeng Restaurant, but they didn't find Li Fugui there. "What shall we do now?"
Yang Ming said, "Let's go to the Li Residence!"
So, the two of them arrived at the gates of the Li Residence, which was Xiaoxiao's first visit to such a grand household. She had no idea what the inside of a rich family's home looked like.
As soon as they approached, a house servant came out, speaking disdainfully, "What do you want? Get lost!"
Were they being looked down upon? Their clothes clearly didn't resemble those of beggars, for goodness' sake. It's true what they say, like master, like servant—just like that Li Fugui.
"Please announce us. Say Scholar Yang Ming requests an audience with Master Li!"
"The Scholar, eh? Alright, I will inform him right away!" The house servant's tone changed entirely when he heard the title 'Scholar,' and he hurried off to deliver the message.
