Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Amelia stuck her head out of the room. “Sister, I’m here.”
Emma ran over happily, only to see Amelia take out a book and say, “Sister,
Second Uncle asked me and Brother to supervise your studies.”
Emma turned around and said, “Ah, I’m suddenly sleepy. I’m going back to shower and sleep.”
Amelia:
At the same time, Old Madam Walton also talked to Kate. Kate denied that something had happened to her family and only said that she was not feeling well. She promised that she would not delay her work anymore. Old Madam Walton did not find anything wrong with her. She could only be more careful and let Kate go back to rest.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse. At around nine o’clock in the evening, the sound of reading could be heard from Amelia’s room. Lucas had a straight face and looked exactly like George.
William sat at the side, leaning on Amelia’s pink dressing table and fiddling with his video recorder. Beside the desk, Amelia held her textbook with both hands and placed it on her head.
Emma was reading from her textbook. “Light of the moon in front of my bed…
Lucas glanced at it with a cold expression. What moonlight in front of the bed? The textbook clearly said, “Picking the rice at noon”! There was even an illustration of a farmer weeding the fields under the sun! Therefore, Emma was reading blindly and was not serious at all!
Lucas asked coldly, “Emma, do you remember what I just taught you?
Emma looked at Lucas’s cold and serious face and was about to cry. Why was Brother Lucas scarier than her father? She said with a long face, “I remember…
Lucas sneered. “Have you memorized everything?”
Emma nodded frantically. “Yes, I remember everything.”
Lucas narrowed his eyes. “Alright, I’ll test you, recite the ancient poem you just learned.”
Amelia looked at Emma and then at Lucas. Oh my, Brother Lucas is so fierce! Emma was also stunned. Her mind was blank. She couldn’t help but look at Amelia. Amelia looked straight ahead and reminded her softly, “Hoeing grain…”
Lucas’s gaze immediately landed on Amelia, who instantly shut up.
Emma kept winking at Amelia. Why don’t you keep reminding me! Amelia secretly shook her head. No, Brother Lucas will be angry.
Emma had no choice but to rack her brains to recall, but she could not recall anything! In the end, she could receite randomly. Lucas was so angry that he threw down the book. His face was as cold as ice. “Learn it yourself!” With that, he closed the door and left angrily.
Amelia and Emma looked at each other. Emma was puzzled. “Did I recite it wrongly just now?
Amelia: “… It’s very wrong. It’s simply reciting it randomly.”
Emma looked like she was about to cry. “I don’t want to either, but Brother Lucas is so scary. He keeps staring at me. My head is buzzing, and I can’t remember anything.”
Amelia looked at Emma sympathetically. “Sister, you’re the legendary bottom-feeder, right?” Amelia went to school with William for a day. From the English teacher, she vividly knew what a star student was and what a bottom-feeder was.
Emma’s face darkened. “I don’t want to be like that either!” But studying was really too difficult. Why was there such a thing as studying in this world?! Why did there have to be exams?! There had to be grades!
Amelia patted Emma’s shoulder. “Alright, Sister. Wash up and go to bed.”
Emma: “…” She kicked her slippers and threw herself onto Amelia’s bed. “I want to sleep with you today!” Then, she looked at William silently.
William was silent. Then, he said, “Can I stay for a while longer?” Damn it! Why wasn’t he a girl? He also wanted to sleep in this room!
William didn’t want to go back to his room. He was afraid that the female ghost would come looking for him in the middle of the night. At that moment, Amelia ran over and fiddled with the dressing table. Finally, she took out a yellow talisman that was folded into a triangle from a small drawer. “Brother, don’t be afraid. Here you go.” She looked like she understood everything.
William said calmly, “I’m not afraid. If I was afraid, I wouldn’t have invented the device.”
Emma laughed loudly. “Haha, what? Brother William, are you afraid of ghosts?
Brother William, you’re a coward! How embarrassing!’
William: He was so angry that he flung his hands and left!
Emma touched her nose innocently. Did she say anything wrong? She wasn’t wrong!
In the dead of the night, the lights in the Walton family’s manor gradually went out, leaving only a few night lights. William placed the iron basin he had made in his room, pressed a peach wood sword under his pillow, and finally hung the triangular yellow talisman that Amelia had given him on his chest..
