Who knew that the third lady was smart? She immediately felt that Su Mo was scolding her and became reluctant.
Su Mo said aggrievedly: "Third sister, I'm talking about catching insects."
She pointed to the candle stand on the kang table, where several small moths were flying toward the flames.
Su Mo stretched out her little hand and quickly pinched the moth out of the fire.
The flame of a candle is divided into two parts, the inner and outer parts. The inner flame has a low temperature and is not hot to touch, especially if it moves quickly.
The third lady looked amused. Seeing Su Mo curling her lips in a provocative look, she said angrily: "I can do it too."
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand to catch the flying moth, but her fingers suddenly caught the outer flame. She screamed in pain and knocked the candle over. The candle tipped over and the flames burned the second lady's sleeves.
After a sudden fall, the candle fell on the eldest lady's skirt again.
In an instant, everyone in the room became panicked. The children were crying and the maids and women were shouting, making the whole room chaotic and noisy.
Light and soft silk is most likely to catch fire. The eldest and second ladies were frightened, and several girls were busy beating them and splashing them with tea.
Su Mo wiped her face and deliberately made her cry in fear.
Through her fingers, she saw that the third lady was actually grinning.
The third lady clapped her little hands and giggled, as if she didn't know her hands hurt.
Su Mo sneered, the show was about to begin.
Mrs. Wang immediately came in to check and asked people to quickly put things away. She did not go to see her daughter first, but went to care about the third lady.
"Xin'er, are you feeling hot? Where does it hurt? Let me take a look."
The third young lady raised her lips proudly, glanced at the eldest and second young ladies, and snorted at Su Mo, as proud as a princess.
Mrs. Wang then went to pay attention to the eldest lady. She saw that her new pomegranate red skirt had a burnt hole. She regretfully said, "This is fine satin. It's just a top. You're not scared."
The eldest lady said calmly: "Thank you for your concern, mother. It's okay."
Mrs. Wang said "oh" and asked someone to take her to the inner room to change clothes. As for the second young lady, she just took a look and didn't ask any questions.
The second young lady bit her lip, and she and her nanny went back to change clothes. When they got outside, Aunt Yang asked her with concern.
With tears in her eyes, the second young lady shook her head and left.
The third young lady in the room shouted: "Mother, the little beggar knocked down the candlestick, hit her quickly!"

Because I didn’t save the text, it was all written in real-time, so if you’re not used to kissing, you can wait until the end of the night to read it and give it a hug.
