"Not only Dabao, but also the Ma brothers and Ding Sheng. From now on, I'll have to trouble you to pick up and drop off all five of them to and from school every day. From now on, I'll pay you eighty cents a month, okay? Just morning and evening pick-up. The rest of the time you can do your own things, and I'll provide lunch for you."
