Wei Chen saw her curiosity and said, "This is my servant, Tong Jia."
Manbao, full of curiosity, asked, "Do you live in the school itself, or outside?"
Wei Chen sighed, "We arrived late, so all the good houses nearby were already rented out. Now, I can only stay temporarily in the school and hope that a house will become available to rent eventually."
"Where does your servant live then?"
"Him? He shares a room with others on Kangxue Street."
Manbao had heard Zhou Silang mention those kinds of houses before. They had large communal sleeping areas, where it was possible to live with seven or eight people, all of whom had come to Yizhou City looking for work.
Manbao nodded her head and said with particular enthusiasm, "Let me take you to the school, carrying so many books must be tiring."
"No need, no need, we have a carriage."
"It's necessary, it's necessary, the books are so heavy, and it's troublesome to move them around."
