Manbao, however, thought there seemed to be more dirt than leaves, so she became unhappy. Taking Daya and the others, they went to the tree at the neighboring mountain, scraped together the rotten leaves that had fallen on the ground, and then carried them in a basket to dump into the pit.
Zhou ErLang had no idea what they were up to until he saw a few children carrying a big basket of rotten leaves and his eyes nearly popped out. He exploded in anger, "That's a good basket, meant for holding rice grain! Who told you to fill it with rotten leaves?"
Manbao got a start and, along with Daya and the rest, they dropped the basket and ran, infuriating Zhou ErLang who cursed behind them, "Just wait till tonight, I'll give you a beating!"
