After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Yiping looked at me with a complicated expression, then reached out and touched my head, saying, "You don't have a fever."

I pushed Yiping's hand away and said, "What fever do you have? I'm telling the truth."

Yi Ping rolled his eyes at me and said, "You're talking nonsense! How could anyone have seen a ghost?"

Before Yi Ping could finish his words, Su Bowen appeared in front of Yi Ping out of nowhere!

Yi Ping looked at Su Bowen, whose tongue was sticking out and whose face was whiter than the whitewashed wall, and asked blankly, "Who are you?"

Su Bowen grinned, revealing his white teeth, and said, "I am a ghost."

In fact, Su Bowen’s appearance was not that scary. Compared with those wronged souls, he looked much better.

But when Yiping heard this, his eyes rolled back and he fainted!

I was shocked and rushed over to hug Yiping. I was so angry that I kicked Su Bowen, but of course I couldn't kick him.

I gritted my teeth and said, "I told you not to scare my sister, but you insisted on scaring her. If anything bad happens, I will definitely take you in."

Su Bowen said aggrievedly: "She is the one who doesn't believe it, what does it have to do with me?"

I carried Yiping back to the inner room, put him on the bed, and covered him with a blanket. Yiping was frightened and fainted, but he still clenched his teeth tightly, and it seemed that he was very scared.

I saw Su Bowen still following behind me to watch the fun, and suddenly I thought of something, and said, "Since you can show up to scare others, why don't you show up to see your parents? Are you taking me for a fool?"

Su Bowen rolled his eyes at me and said, "Those are my parents. How can I bear to scare them?"

It’s not that I can’t, it’s that I don’t want to!

I was so mad that I picked up the feather duster beside me and swung it at Su Bowen.

Su Bowen jumped up and down, as if he was playing hide-and-seek with me, and shouted excitedly: "You can't hit me, haha, you just can't hit me."

This kid was probably a troublemaker when he was alive. No wonder he ran away from home without saying a word. It seems he deserved a beating.

Before I finished dealing with Su Bowen, Yi Ping woke up slowly.

She saw me chasing her around the house with a feather duster. This scene was so familiar. In the past, when my eldest brother was disobedient, my second sister would chase him and beat him in the same way.

Although Yiping knew there was a ghost in the house, she didn't feel that scared as long as the ghost didn't reveal its true form.

Yi Ping called out weakly, "Second sister."

I didn't hear it, but Su Bowen did. He floated to a beam, swung his legs and said, "Your third sister is calling you."

Looking at the "high and mighty" Su Bowen, I was so angry that I threw away the feather duster and said, "I'll deal with you later."

After saying that, I hurried towards Yiping.

Yi Ping seemed to be extremely frightened and his face looked very ugly.

When Yiping saw me, tears almost fell from her eyes again. She said aggrievedly, "This is the first time I've seen a ghost in my life. I almost got scared to death."

I sat on the bed, held her hands, and said, "This ghost is too naughty. Don't worry, I will definitely help you teach him a lesson."

Su Bowen hung upside down on the beam, deliberately stretched out his tongue so long that it almost reached the ground, and said, "Come on, I'm waiting for you."

I sneered and said, "I won't go looking for your body. You can go find whoever you want."

A little devil dares to challenge me. I am so tired of living.

Su Bowen panicked when he heard this, and quickly floated over, saying in a low voice: "Isn't it just a little joke I played on you, why do you take it so seriously? How about I go and scare Madam Zhao to vent your anger?"

Before I could say anything, Su Bowen flew away with a whoosh.

Yi Ping looked at me with tears in his eyes and said, "The emperor came before dark today. You were not here, so he handed me the recognition letter prepared by the Imperial Observatory and said that the eighth day of this month is a good day, so he set the recognition date on the eighth day."

"The eighth day of the first lunar month?" It's only a few days away from the eighth day of the first lunar month. I didn't expect Zheng Xian to be so efficient that he could have the Yintianjian calculate the date so quickly.

Yi Ping nodded and continued, "His Majesty also sent some very good fabrics and asked me to pick some so that the embroiderers in the palace could make me some beautiful clothes. He also brought a lot of medicinal herbs, saying that the Seventh Prince was not in good health and asked me to make some soup to nourish him."

I guess Zheng Xian would come right after I left. Fortunately I wasn't there, otherwise he would have stayed for dinner and would have kept me company to chat and refused to leave.

Since Zheng Xian has sent the letter of recognition, he must deliver it to the Du family tomorrow so that they can know the date and hold the banquet in advance.

So I said, "I have something else to do tomorrow. Can you find some guards to accompany you to the Du family?"

Upon hearing this, Yi Ping sat up straight, stared at me and asked, "Where are you going tomorrow? You don't even want to accompany me on such an important matter as recognizing your relatives."

I was just about to say that I would accompany Su's father and mother to look for Su Bowen's body tomorrow, when suddenly an urgent report came from the concierge outside the door: "Master and Miss, a man claiming to be your eldest brother wants to see you."

big brother?

Yiping and I looked at each other. Before we could stand up, Zhao Jinping strode in from outside carrying a large cloth bag!

As soon as Zhao Jinping entered the room, he threw the big cloth bag to the ground. There was a muffled "bang" sound, and the things wrapped in the big cloth were not light.

Zhao Jinping walked quickly to us and said happily, "Are you surprised to see my brother? Are you surprised?"

Yiping and I rolled our eyes at the same time. I said, "There was no surprise, only shock."

Zhao Jinping said without any hesitation: "Look at what nonsense you are talking about. You look too happy. You don't know how remote this house is. I spent more than ten cents to get a carriage to take me here."

Yi Ping asked in confusion: "Why did you come back in the middle of the night? Did the teacher chase you away?"

"Bah! You have a bad mouth. How could I, such a smart and hardworking person, be chased away by the teacher? After I finished the class today, the teacher gave me a day off. And this time, because the teacher was not feeling well, he gave me a day off until after the New Year. I only need to hand in my homework every three days." Zhao Jinping was so happy that his mouth was almost grinning.

I was detained by the teacher in the academy every day. Besides reciting books, I had to do homework. I had to practice writing several pages of characters every day before I could eat. It was a life worse than death. Now I can go home. I don’t have to get up before dawn to recite books. I can also eat delicious meals. It’s wonderful to think about it.

"Take a break?" Yiping and I said at the same time.

The entrance examinations for various academies will be held around the end of February next year, and Zhao Jinping doesn't have much time left. He didn't expect that the teacher would give him such a long vacation.

However, other schools or academies had already had their winter vacation, but because Jinping's foundation was too poor, the teacher would not let him leave, so he stayed until now before giving him a vacation.

Jinping was so excited that he kept complaining about being hungry. Yiping had no choice but to get out of bed and cook noodles for him.

Fortunately, there is always a hidden fire in the kitchen, so no matter when I want to cook, I don’t have to light a new fire.

The room reserved for Jinping was usually cleaned, so it was very clean. One just had to lay out the bedding and light a charcoal stove in the room and one could live in it.
