When Jinbao and the others returned to the mansion, it was already dark, and the moon was hidden in the clouds. Only the lanterns hanging in front of the doors of some large houses gave off a faint light.

"Fortunately, I just asked the waiter for a lantern, otherwise it would be so dark that I couldn't even open the door lock."

Mr. Zheng jumped off the carriage, handed the lantern to Mr. Zheng, and went to open the door himself.

The early spring night was still very cold, and Jin Bao huddled up in Zhou's arms and took a nap.

Several people waited for Boss Zheng to park the carriage before walking into the small courtyard together.

"Huh~ It's still warm in the house. Mom, wake up Jinbao. We haven't taken out the bedding yet." Boss Zheng said while rubbing his hands.

Mrs. Zhou couldn't bear to look at Jinbao's red face, stretched out her hand to pinch it, and shouted softly: "Little Jinbao, wake up, let's go back to bed, okay?"

"it is good!"

Jin Bao responded in a daze, opened his eyes a little, and began to move the bedding out of the space.

After Boss Zheng and the others had made the beds in the two rooms, the moon outside finally poked its head out, and it was no longer pitch black.

"Let's make do with it for one night today, and then clean up the kitchen briefly tomorrow. Hot water is always indispensable."

Mrs. Zhou took off Jinbao's shoes and then carefully placed her on the bed.

"Okay, mother, you guys have a rest first, the lantern will stay here, and we will go back to the house." Zheng Laosan said.

Jin Bao was drowsily asleep. When he heard his third uncle saying that he was leaving, he raised his eyelids and took a look. This glance wiped out his drowsiness.

She opened her eyes suddenly, sat up from the bed, and pointed out the window with her little finger.

"Jin Bao, what's wrong? Are you dreaming?" Zhou took her into his arms and patted her gently.

"My daughter, sleep peacefully. Dad will close the window right now."

Boss Zheng saw that she kept pointing at the window and was about to walk over and close it.

"Grandma, I saw a ghost!"

Jin Bao's eyes were shining. Not only was he not afraid, but he was excited.

This sentence shocked the other three people to a halt.

Mrs. Zhou regained her composure, put on a smile, and said comfortingly: "Jin Bao is good, whatever ghosts there are, they are all scary. We are not afraid."

"There is a ghost. There was a white shadow floating outside the window just now." Jin Bao continued to point at the window.

She saw it just now. Although she only saw it once, it was definitely not wrong.

Hearing her say this, Zhou got goosebumps on her arms and felt cold all over.

She believed that Jin Bao could not lie, but was there really a ghost?

"Mom, don't worry, my eldest brother and I will go out and take a look."

Zheng Laosan picked up the lantern and walked out of the house with Mr. Zheng.

As soon as the lantern was taken away, the room became dark again, with only some moonlight streaming in through the windows.

Mrs. Zhou held Jinbao in her arms and stared at the window nervously, fearing that something would really float in.

"Grandma is not afraid!"

Jinbao hugged her arm and comforted her, then took out two night pearls from the space, and the room instantly became brighter.

There was also a large box of luminous pearls in the space. If she hadn't needed it this time, she would have forgotten about it.

"Jin Bao, is this what you found in the cave before?" Zhou looked at the glowing night pearl and was shocked.

Although she was born in the capital, treasures like Ye Mingzhu were not something she could see.

"Yes, I put it in the space and forgot about it." Jinbao scratched his little head in embarrassment.

If it had been taken out earlier, there would be no need to light candles at home.

"It's better not to take it out. If others see it, it's okay. Let's use it temporarily tonight. I'll buy a candle tomorrow and hide the night pearl." Mrs. Zhou said.

"Ok."

Jin Bao nodded and continued to huddle in her arms and look out the window. Unfortunately, the white shadow never appeared again.

Zheng Laosan and Zheng Laosan took the lanterns and turned around, but they didn't see anything.

The two of them returned to the house and looked at the bright house, amazed.

"What is this? Why is it so bright?"

Boss Zheng walked over and looked at the night pearl in Jin Bao's hand.

"These are night pearls. You can take one over later and use it first. What's going on outside?" asked Ms. Zhou.

"Mom, my eldest brother and I have looked at it just now. There is nothing. Jinbao must have seen it wrong." Zheng Laosan put the lantern back on the table and said.

Hearing the word 'misunderstood', Mr. Zheng suddenly remembered the white figure he saw when he was fetching water. Forget that he was dazzled, could his daughter be dazzled too?

Something is wrong!

He said with some seriousness: "There may be something really there. I also saw a white shadow this afternoon. At that time, I thought I was dazzled, but now it seems that is not the case."

I might be dazzled, but my daughter's eyesight is so good that she can't be mistaken.

"White shadows that appear at night may be caused by ghosts. If they appear during the day, someone must be causing trouble," Zhou analyzed.

It seems that this mansion is someone's concern, otherwise the rumors about ghosts wouldn't spread.

"Then we won't sleep today and will keep watch in the outer room. Mom, you two go to bed first. I want to see who is causing trouble." Boss Zheng said.

Zheng Laosan also nodded. This man dared to pretend to be a ghost and scare people. He must be very familiar with the house. If he is not caught, there will be no hope of peace in the future.

Jinbao wrinkled his nose and released Xiaobai and Dahei from the space.

"Xiao Xiaobai will keep watch inside the house, and Da Hei will keep watch outside. Dad and Third Uncle should have a good sleep."

Daddy and the others have already had a hard enough time driving the car, so she would feel bad if they could keep vigil again.

"Daughter...Daughter, next time you let it out, say hello to daddy. I...I'm not ready yet."

Boss Zheng looked at the stout Dahei and turned pale. As expected, snakes are much scarier than ghosts.

"Dahei is very good, daddy is not afraid," Jinbao said.

As soon as he finished speaking, Dahei raised his tail and put it on Boss Zheng's shoulder, as if to prove his obedience.

Well, it does look quite obedient.

But Boss Zheng didn't think so. His body became stiff and he didn't dare to move. It was as if something exploded in his mind, leaving him at a loss.

Mrs. Zhou was amused by his appearance. She looked at Dahei and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Dahei. Just go and guard outside. If you see anyone causing trouble, take him to the front yard first. Tomorrow We’ll deal with it later.”

Dahei nodded, retracted his tail and swam slowly outside.

"Brother, since Xiaobai and Dahei are here, let's go back to the house and rest for a while." Zheng Laosan said.

Boss Zheng nodded stiffly and said, "Let's go, support me, my legs are a little weak."

As he spoke, he put his arm on Zheng Laosan and hung half of his body on it.

Zheng Laosan suppressed his laughter and led Zheng Laosan out of the house.
