The naughty boy looked at the group of people coming in and wondered what his father meant.
"Humph, didn't you say it was a misunderstanding? Tell me, how could such a coincidence happen? It happened that you were worried about seeing a ghost, so you put on ghost clothes, and the costume was exactly the same as the ghost costume they saw a few days ago?"
Magistrate Pan said with a mocking tone.
The naughty boy was breaking out in a cold sweat. Looking at the "Dragon-Expectation Rod" his father took out, he felt his butt begin to ache.
He said why these people looked so familiar, and their feelings were all those who had been frightened by him!
If he had known that this day would happen, he should have changed his outfits a few more times!
As his father, Magistrate Pan could tell at a glance what he was thinking.
He was really unrepentant. He didn't feel at all that he had done anything wrong, but he just felt that he was getting caught now and was starting to get scared.
"Dad, I was wrong. I never dare to do it again. Please forgive me this time, okay? I swear, I will never do this again in the future!"
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, the naughty boy immediately changed his face and began to apologize.
Jiang Nuan was dumbfounded when he saw the speed at which his face changed.
"Do you think it's useful to admit your mistake now? Didn't you say that your mother was afraid of ghosts? Why were you so afraid of ghosts just now? Didn't you also say that you would scare me and you for a while?"
Magistrate Pan became more and more angry as he spoke, and then picked up the Dragon-Expectation Rod next to him.
"Get down here!"
The naughty kid wanted to defend himself again, but when he saw his father's serious expression, he immediately stopped and lay down on the stool.
Just when Magistrate Pan was about to take action, Mrs. Pan came.
"Mom, save me, save me!"
The naughty child immediately asked for help.
"Madam, he..."
Magistrate Pan was about to say a few words, but Mrs. Pan waved her hand, indicating that he did not need to say more, and then took a whip from the hand of the maid next to her.
"This whip is called Mend-Your-Ways Whip. I hope you will remember this lesson."
The naughty boy was desperate. He thought his mother was here to help him, but he didn't expect that she was here to play mixed doubles with his father.
After experiencing some loving education, the naughty child became honest and was moved to a room after being given medicine.
Looking at this room, he felt very frightened, and recalled what happened to him just now.
The slightest disturbance can scare him, and now he understands that scaring people is a very wrong thing.
After teaching the naughty child a lesson, Jiang Nuan slipped back into her room.
The next day, she slept until noon and didn't get up until noon. After finishing her meal, County Magistrate's Residence's servant came to inform her that the county magistrate asked her to come over.
[Huh? Why did he invite me over? Hasn't the haunting been solved?]
Jiang Nuan is a little confused.
[Host, I know! That's right, Magistrate Pan is about to be promoted and leave here. Now there are two candidates for the county magistrate. Don't you know how to tell fortunes? He wants you to tell which person is more suitable.]
Guagua immediately told Jiang Nuan what it had eaten.
[Oh, is that so? But this doesn't feel good. Magistrate Pan believes in fortune-telling too much. I only know so much because of you, Guagua. If he believes in fortune-telling too much after he is promoted, then something will be wrong.]
Nine out of ten fortune tellers may be liars. It was good to meet her, but it would not be a good thing to trust other people too much.
Jiang Nuan began to worry about this matter.
[It seems like this, why don't the host remind him at some point?]
Guagua thinks what Jiang Nuan said makes sense.
[Okay, let's take a look at it later.]
They thought that Magistrate Pan believed in fortune telling too much, but they didn't know that they believed in Jiang Nuan's voice and were going to see if they could get some information from Jiang Nuan's voice.
After walking for a while, we came to a small pavilion in the garden. At this time, Magistrate Pan was sitting and drinking tea with two candidates for county magistrate.
After seeing Jiang Nuan, he welcomed Jiang Nuan with great enthusiasm.
The two county magistrate candidates are Deputy Magistrate Peng and Deputy Magistrate Tao.
After the two of them saw Jiang Nuan, they didn't understand what Magistrate Pan meant, but they still followed him and enthusiastically welcomed Jiang Nuan.
He also prepared a plate of snacks in front of her.
I probably thought she was a junior in Magistrate Pan's family.
"Let me tell you, this is a fortune teller. He will stay in our county for a while this time. I just asked the master for his opinion and asked him to do the calculation for you. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You must seize it."
Afraid that they would not take Jiang Nuan seriously, Magistrate Pan emphasized it specially.
But after hearing what he said, both of them looked a bit confused, as if they could deceive even a child.
Deputy Magistrate Peng has a relatively high emotional intelligence. He smiled "haha" and said:
"Since the county magistrate has said so, I must seize this opportunity."
Deputy Magistrate Tao's emotional intelligence is not very high, so he said directly:
"What does such a little girl know? Magistrate, why can't you see through such a simple scam? Even I, Old Tao, can see through it."
Magistrate Pan After hearing Deputy Magistrate Tao's words again, he slapped his head. Why did he forget that this old Tao was a heartless person? Now it's better. It would be fun if he offended her.
"Little Master..."
Magistrate Pan just wanted to make up for it, but Jiang Nuan shook his head and said he didn't care.
"Anyway, you don't have anything to do now. Just play a little game to pass the time. How about you come first?"
It's normal to question her. If she didn't know the inside story, she would also question her in the same situation, so Jiang Nuan didn't take it to heart. Instead, she looked at him with a smile and said.
"Of course you can. I want to see what you can calculate, Master."
He bit the word "master" very seriously.
"It's not easy to abscond for so long, isn't it? Aren't you tired after living under someone else's identity for so long? You were just a farmer. It's not easy to pretend to be knowledgeable like Master Tao!"
Deputy Magistrate Tao had a trace of panic in his eyes, which was almost undetectable.
"Little sister, what story are you making up?"
He said calmly.
After Magistrate Pan and Deputy Magistrate Peng heard Jiang Nuan's words, they suddenly took a few steps back and distanced themselves from Deputy Magistrate Tao.
"No, do you really believe what she said? You believe such nonsense. I think you should go and have a look at your brain!"
Looking at the performance of the two people, Deputy Magistrate Tao said in disbelief.
Magistrate Pan nodded, indicating that he indeed believed what Jiang Nuan said.
Then he turned to look at Deputy Magistrate Peng and asked with his eyes: Don't you believe it? Why did you step back?
Deputy Magistrate Peng also replied with his eyes: I don't believe it, but what she said is so scary. Isn't it normal for me to step back?
After the two made eye contact, they turned their attention to Jiang Nuan, waiting for her next words.
