Ding Xiaolian's lips curled up with a hint of pride, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Yuxi deserves to be burned to death in the fire, hum!"
Hongluan said: "Miss, I'm going to check on the situation."
"What are you going to do?" Ding Xiaolian grabbed her, rolled his eyes and said, "Send Mrs. Zhou in the kitchen." Mrs. Zhou has not shown her face in the village yet, so no one will know her.
Yingxue Residence was far away in the middle of the night, so it was too unusual for Hongluan to go there to see the excitement, so it would be more appropriate to ask Mrs. Zhou, whom no one knew, to go there.
Hong Luan also understood, "I'll call Mrs. Zhou right now."
Soon, Mrs. Zhou left Yingxue Residence through the corner door holding a lantern.
Along the way, many villagers were awakened and went to the big locust tree, only to see fire rising into the sky to the north.
"Is Shen Yu's house on fire?" someone asked doubtfully.
"It looks like it, but how come the fever is so big? Don't you know how to save it?"
"Who knows? With such a strong wind tonight, the fire should start quickly. I don't know if anyone ran out."
"A woman, a cripple, and a six-year-old child are probably dead."
While they were discussing, Aunt Zhou and her husband Shen Tailin came running over with their sons carrying buckets.
Aunt Zhou shouted as she ran: "Are you still here watching the excitement? Go put out the fire quickly, so you won't be afraid that the fire will spread to your house?" After saying that, she rushed to Shen Yuyu's house in a hurry.
After hearing Aunt Zhou's words, some people also became worried and hurried home to carry buckets of water.
Aunt Zhou and Uncle Shen took Brother Shen Xingwang and ran not far to Shen Yuyu's house when they saw a figure flashing in front of them.
"Yu Yu, Ah Xun? Ah Feng, are you all okay?" Aunt Zhou shouted anxiously and ran over there.
When I got closer, I saw it was Ji Xun. To be precise, Ji Xun was escorting a man, followed by Shen Yue and Ji Feng.
"Don't worry, ma'am, we're fine." Shen Yuyu's face turned black from trying to put out the fire.
Aunt Zhou hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her and Ji Feng, her face full of distress: "Are you scared? What's going on?" She also guessed a little bit in her heart, and her eyes fell on Shen Zuorong.
Shen Yuyu wiped away her tears: "It was my uncle who set fire to burn us to death. If Ah Xun hadn't been alert, I'm afraid we would have..."
Shen Zuorong quickly defended: "I, I never thought of burning you to death. My eldest niece, please don't talk nonsense." After hearing this, Uncle Shen became furious and stepped forward to kick Shen Zuorong several times.
"Shen Zuorong? Are you still human? You set a fire in the middle of the night without intending to kill anyone? Which letter?"
Several of Aunt Zhou's sons also criticized Shen Zuorong, calling him worse than a beast for being so ruthless as to kill his own niece.
Shen Zuorong was also extremely desperate. He clearly just set fire and did not intend to kill anyone. Now the crime of murder is getting a lot more serious.
Of course, the most annoying thing is that Ji Xun seemed to have been prepared for it. He was caught up by Ji Xun before he could escape far and knocked him to the ground. Ji Xun had been trained in the army, and he was tall and heavy. Zuorong tried his best to escape, so he was captured by them.
"Eldest niece, please let your uncle go. He knows he was wrong." Arson is a felony, and he was accused of trying to kill people. Shen Zuorong was also extremely frightened and kept begging for mercy. "The house was not burned down much." , I will come out with ten taels of silver to help you repair it and restore it to its original condition, okay? You can let me go." He said, slumped on the ground and refused to leave.
If this matter gets serious, he will definitely go to jail. Although he feels sorry for the money, it is better to go private than go to jail!
Hearing that not much of the house was burned down, Aunt Zhou, Uncle Shen and others breathed a sigh of relief, and their property was saved. Aunt Zhou patted her chest with lingering fear, "It's okay, okay, everyone is fine, and the property has been saved, too." good"
Okay? What a shame! She is bankrupt!~嘤嘤嘤! Shen Yuxi pouted in grievance.
I always felt that this evil uncle was instigated by someone to do this. He deliberately set a fire in her east wing and poured all the kerosene on the east corner. The box where she kept the banknotes happened to be in that corner.
She and Ji Xun were still playing and kissing under the covers when they heard the noise and quickly got up and guarded the door.
He guessed in his heart that it was either Mrs. Wang or two evil uncles. Shen Yuhu knew their virtues. If he didn't come to set fire today, he would come tomorrow. He might as well let him burn it instead of putting him in jail and serving a few days of jail time. Teach them a lesson.
After making up their mind, the two of them stayed quietly. When the fire started, they rushed out of the house. Ji Xun went to arrest Shen Zuorong, while she put out the fire. When she put out the fire, she discovered that the The money box turned into black charcoal, and except for a few taels of silver notes, everything turned into fly ash. She was so heartbroken that she stamped her feet!
"The house is okay? How come you see such a big fire?" Shen Xingwang asked.
Shen Yue: "Oh, when we were putting out the fire, we ignited a dozen haystacks piled in the rice fields next to us."
"It turned out that the haystack was set on fire. No wonder the fire shot into the sky." Many villagers also came over with buckets to put out the fire, and they breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Mrs. Zhou, who was among the people fighting the fire, returned to Yingxue Residence when she saw that she had almost found out the news.
"How's it going?" Ding Xiaolian was sitting in the courtyard wrapped in a thick fur collared cloak and waiting. As soon as Mrs. Zhou came in, she stood up expectantly.
"Miss, Shen Yu's house was not burned down." Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to report, "The person who set the fire was his uncle named Shen Zuorong, and he was caught by Ji Xun."
Ding Xiaolian fell down weakly, his face looking extremely ugly.
This was done secretly without telling the servants, and it was not easy to get angry in front of them, so he entered the house disappointed.
After sending all the maids and servants out of the room, Shen Yuyu sat on the bed with a gloomy look: "This Shen Zuorong is really a useless waste!"
Hong Luan raised her head desperately, waiting to be beaten by the lady.
Ding Xiaolian did not attack her and said dejectedly: "It's better to go back to Lingzhou City. If Shen Zuorong can't bear it and brings out the salesman's business, it will be over.'
Hong Luan said unwillingly: "But the salesman doesn't know it was us who instigated it."
"I'm afraid that the Night King will be suspicious." Ding Xiaolian spoke with trembling. That was the Night King, and she couldn't bear his death gaze alone.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaolian hurriedly stood up and said, "Hurry up and pack your things and go back to Lingzhou City early tomorrow morning." She couldn't let the Night King have the opportunity to interrogate her, otherwise she would definitely bring it upon herself if she got scared.
"Yes, Miss." Hongluan didn't dare to say any more and hurriedly went to pack her things.
But here, Shen Zuorong was dragged to the Shaigu Ping with his hands tied behind his back. The village chief and other clan leaders were all alerted, and soon the Shaigu Ping was surrounded by people.
Mrs. Wang's whole family got the news and rushed over. Seeing Shen Zuorong trapped on the ground, Shen Yunlai secretly wiped his sweat. He was secretly glad that God was so kind to him and didn't let him win the long stick. Otherwise, It's him who is tied up here.
