When the few people returned to the Duke's Mansion, the sun had already set, and only the red sunset glow remained on the horizon.
At dinner, Jinbao got his wish and had a whole fish dinner.
When the Duke of Zhen Guo found out that the fish was caught by his granddaughter, his appetite increased and he added a large bowl of rice, which made him burp.
At this time, a servant came over to report: "Old madam, someone from the Zheng family is here, saying they are taking the young lady back."
The Duke's wife turned and asked, "Does Little Jinbao want to go back to live, or stay here with his grandmother?"
In fact, she didn't want her grandson to go back to live there. It was impossible to live in a mansion that had not been lived in for many years as comfortable as the Duke's mansion.
However, she still planned to respect Jin Bao's opinion.
Jinbao looked outside the door and suddenly remembered the white shadow she saw last night. She seemed to have forgotten Dahei, and she didn't know if it caught the 'ghost'...
"Jin Bao will go back to stay tonight and come back to stay with grandma tomorrow, okay?"
If he doesn't go back, Dahei will definitely be impatient.
The Duke's wife did not force her and said, "Then we have agreed that Xiao Jinbao will sleep with his grandmother tomorrow night."
"Okay." Jinbao nodded in agreement seriously.
The Duke's wife was instantly satisfied, and then she carried her outside the gate. Feeling the soft and waxy ball in her arms, she really couldn't bear to let go.
Seeing the Zheng family waiting outside the door, she reluctantly handed the Jinbao over.
"My good granddaughter, go back and go to bed early. Grandpa will pick you up early tomorrow."
The Duke of Zheng waved his hands and shouted reluctantly.
"Okay, grandpa and grandma should also take a good rest."
Jinbao sat in the carriage and waved his little hand outside.
"Grandma thought you were going to stay at the Duke's Mansion today and not go back." Mrs. Zhou said, rubbing her little head.
"I'm going back, grandma, has Dahei caught the ghost?" Jinbao asked.
She raised her little face, her eyes sparkling like stars.
Mrs. Zhou smiled and scratched her nose and said, "You, grandma knew you were thinking about this. I caught you, but it's not a ghost, it's a human being."
She had already guessed that humans were causing trouble. The dragon energy was strong at the Emperor's feet, so how could there be so many ghosts coming out to cause trouble.
"Huh? Is he a human?"
Jin Bao drooped his little head in disappointment.
She was also going to see what the ghost looked like.
"You little guy, what's so interesting about ghosts? I'd be surprised if they didn't scare you to tears." Ms. Zhou was amused by her lost look.
Jin Bao pouted and said nothing. As long as he didn't eat her, she wasn't afraid of any ugly ghost.
While he was talking, the carriage had already arrived in front of the mansion.
Zhou jumped out of the carriage with Jin Bao in her arms, opened the door, and walked straight to the yard where Dahei was hiding.
When I walked in, I saw that the man pretending to be a ghost was still haunted by Dahei. His face was pale, and he didn't know if he was awake.
"Jin Bao, you are finally back. This is the person who was pretending to be a ghost last night."
When Dahei saw the person coming, his eyes flashed, and he threw the man in front of the two of them.
"Is he dead?" Jin Bao asked when he saw that he was motionless.
Dahei said: "He's not dead, he's pretending, kick him and he'll wake up."
"Jinbao, what did it say?" Zheng Laosan, who walked in later, asked.
"Dahei said he is not dead, and he will wake up if he kicks him." Jin Bao said.
After Zheng Laosan heard this, he walked over and kicked him.
The man lying on the ground remained motionless.
Jinbao frowned and said, "Dahei, if he doesn't wake up, try giving him a bite."
The person who pretends to be asleep needs to be more aggressive towards him.
When the man heard this, he immediately got up from the ground and shouted: "Don't bite, don't bite, I'm awake."
Seeing how quickly Zheng Laosan got up, he raised his leg and kicked him again.
"Pretend, why don't you stop pretending, you coward."
The man had a grimace and did not dare to say anything. He had no idea how he got here from last night until now. Who can imagine what it feels like to be entangled by a big snake for several hours.
In the past, he was the one who pretended to be a ghost to scare others, but now it was his turn to be scared.
At this time, Boss Zheng was lying at the door and shouted cautiously: "Daughter, Dahei has been tired for so long, please take it back and have a good rest."
He had tried very hard to eliminate his fear of snakes, but Dahei was too big, so he allowed himself to be timid for a while longer.
"Okay, Third Uncle, take him away first."
Jin Bao responded and looked at the man pretending to be a ghost.
Zheng Laosan nodded, picked up the man's back collar, and carried him out.
After Jinbao took Dahei into the space, he also followed him out of the big yard and came to the small yard where they lived.
"Tell me, why are you pretending to be a ghost here to scare people?" Zheng Laosan threw the man to the ground and asked.
The man seemed to have thought of his words a long time ago and blurted out directly: "I...I have no place to live. After knowing that this place has been vacant, I moved in secretly, but I was afraid of being discovered, so if someone came in, I would pretend Ghosts scare people away.”
It sounded like that, but no one believed it.
Boss Zheng clenched his fists and walked up to him, made a gesture on his face, gritted his teeth and said: "Do you think we are easy to fool, just find any reason to send us away."
The man swallowed his saliva and muttered: "I...everything I said is true."
When Boss Zheng saw that he had a tough talk, he had no patience to continue asking him, and directly punched him.
"Ow~"
The man howled as he was beaten, and lay on his side on the ground wiping tears.
"You are dishonest, so don't blame me for taking action. Third child, let's take turns to see if he has any experience in driving stakes."
Zheng Laosan smiled understandingly, clenched his fist and slowly approached him.
"Don't, don't hit me, I said, I said." The man covered his red and swollen face, his eyes flashing slightly.
"Think carefully before you speak, or I'll blow your head off with a hammer." Boss Zheng threatened.
It's really embarrassing for a man to be so cowardly and pretend to be a ghost to scare people.
The man sighed and said slowly: "Actually, I know the high-ranking official who lived here before. I am a distant relative of his family. Before I ransacked the house, I heard that their family was very wealthy, so I took advantage of the fact that no one is paying attention to this place. Come and get some oil and water.”
Zhou smiled sarcastically and said, "Do you know who we are?"
"Who?" The man asked subconsciously with a flash of disdain in his eyes.
Aren't they just ordinary businessmen? I don't know how much money it cost to get this mansion.
"The Prime Minister and we are in-laws. Do you think we don't know what a house raid is? Come to an empty mansion to make money, you can't think of it."
Zhou did not hide anything and directly announced the name of Prime Minister Zhao. There was no need to hide it for such a person who looked down upon others.
After hearing this, the man's eyes became panicked.
Looking at the clothes, words and deeds of these people, he really didn't think about the official family. He didn't expect that they were related to the prime minister. It seemed that he had made a miscalculation this time.
