When Hua Manman learned that Mr. Du had gone next door to teach, she thought she wouldn't be seeing Li Xun today.
She was just getting ready to enjoy a comfortable day off when Li Xun came scampering in.
"Mother! Let's go out and play!"
Hua Manman was surprised. "Don't you have lessons today?"
Li Xun began to skillfully tattle.
"That Mr. Du is the worst.
Not only did he break my bookshelf and make a mess of my study, he even scared me on purpose.
Father couldn't stand it, so he made him fix the bookshelf and put the study back the way it was.
He's still repairing the bookshelf right now, so he has no time to deal with me.
And Father is about to go inspect Tianjing, so let's go with him!"
Hua Manman never would have imagined that Mr. Du would go from being a teacher to a handyman.
'That's quite the career change.'
She wanted to ask for more details, but Li Xun was already eagerly pulling her out the door.
"Father's carriage is parked right outside. Let's hurry!"
