Once April had passed, the weather had begun to heat up, and the days had gotten longer. Every day as soon as dawn broke, she'd climb out of bed, wash up, and run to the riverbank to read aloud.
Even Sanya and the others still studying couldn't help but start waking up early to read at the riverbank in the morning. After completing early lessons for themselves, they'd run back to eat breakfast and then head off to school with their Small book boxes.
Sanya and the others went to school, while Manbao attended lessons at the teacher's place in Bai Family Village.
Mr. Zhuang had resumed his previous teaching habits, teaching the three students separately. Manbao and Bai Shan could attend the same lessons, Bai Erlang alone had his own, followed by review of their assignments.
Old Madam Liu had clearly spoken with Mr. Zhuang, who had come to know about the feud between their families and the Prince of Yizhou; there was no hiding it anymore.
