Bai Erlang had finished eating and was holding a copy of the Records of the Grand Historian while reciting it. He wanted to read it thoroughly before writing, as it would make the process faster. This was an experience he had accumulated over years of copying books.
Yin Huo jokingly asked Zhou Man and Bai Shan, "Do you need us to help tomorrow?"
Manbao and Bai Shan shook their heads together, saying, "Forget it, too many people go, and our teacher will definitely get angry. It's not good if we get punished for another month."
Yin Huo nodded and did not bring up the matter again.
Feng Zongping and Yi Ziyang also finished eating. They pushed aside the food boxes and came over curiously, asking, "You guys made such a big splash yesterday, but Assistant Lecturer Zhuang didn't praise you, how come you were punished?"
Indeed, in just half a day, the news of Bai Shanzhou Man and Bai Cheng getting punished by Assistant Lecturer Zhuang had spread throughout Chongwen Pavilion.
