When the maids heard the shout, almost in sync with Manmiao, they jumped up from the ground. They didn't pay attention to Manmiao's inexplicable words when she was asleep. They thought she was frightened and opened the doors and windows a crack.
I found that the fire hadn't reached here yet.
Manmei's head has not yet fully awakened, but she also knows how there could be a fire here. Some people got up and roared angrily, "Who are shouting? It just rained heavily here, and it was already soaked. How could there be a fire?"
The houses in this nunnery are all made of straw roofs. If they are set on fire when it is dry, they are likely to catch fire. The problem is that there was such a heavy rain in the afternoon. The straw has already eaten up enough rainwater, so how can it burn?
The maid opened the window and took a look. Sure enough, there was obvious fire.
This kind of fire was much larger than the bonfire burned by the guards. A normal person would know at a glance that it was really a house fire, not a bonfire that was lit for lighting.
When Manmei saw the light of the fire, she woke up most of the time. She didn't care that she didn't have any shoes on her feet and climbed up. Fortunately, it was cold here, so she wore a lot of clothes and didn't wear thin pajamas or anything like that.
The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and it's threatening to burn this way. The most important thing is to run away quickly.
Before I could open the door, I heard someone banging on the door and shouting, "Miss Man, Miss Man!"
Before Manmiao responded, she heard a loud noise, and the thin wooden door was kicked open by several powerful guards. Seeing Manmiao sitting on the bed safely, Qingpei rushed forward and pulled her away.
Let's go, "Let's go quickly, the fire is coming here."
The Jiang family's maid was also afraid of the fire, so she pushed her out and went out together.
She subconsciously followed Qing Pei out. When she went out, she saw Shan Boyuan standing in an open place outside wearing a thick quilted cloak. The cloak was made of thick, snow-white brocade, which was very eye-catching at night.
The nunnery is not big, and the wing room is at the entrance of the courtyard. I walked over in a few steps. Miao Miao’s feet were covered with mud. It had just rained heavily, and the ground was muddy. Who could take care of this when I was running for my life. Fortunately, I had a skirt to block it. Look.
No feet visible.
Shan Bo looked warm from a distance, and Manmei didn't care about the cold or warmth at this time. She looked directly at the place where the fire was burning and found that it seemed to be burning from a remote room.
While she was still looking around, a guard had already reported to Shan Boyuan, "Your Highness, this fire is very strange. I found the smell of kerosene on the remaining thatch."
No wonder it burned. It would definitely burn if it was poured with kerosene.
An angry look appeared on Shan Boyuan's face, and he looked at the guards and scolded him word by word, "What do you do for food? You don't even know if someone is drenched in kerosene?! If you hadn't discovered it in time, you would have waited to give him
I have been buried."
He was probably very angry. After saying these words, he coughed violently. Zihan quickly stroked his back, while Hongxiu poured out herbal tea and served him to drink it. Then he helped him sit on the soft sedan next to him.
He gathered up Shan Boyuan's cloak, turned to the guard and said, "Why are you still standing? Why don't you hurry up and save people?"
The guard looked grateful to Hong Xiu, nodded and walked towards the burning house.
Manmei stood not far away, envious of Shan Boyuan's thick cloak.
Shan Boyuan seemed to feel her longing gaze, and turned to Qing Pei and said, "Go and get one of my cloaks and put it on Miss Man."
In an instant, Manmei became very fond of Shan Boyuan. Under such circumstances, knowing how to take care of women really changed her outlook on him.
The thick quilted cloak was draped over her body and she felt warm immediately. Manmei sneezed a few times and felt that the coldness on her body was much better.
The guards went to save people and threw the crying cooks, maids, rough ladies and nuns one by one into the open space. Those who were on fire would hold on to someone who came to help them, and the guards would have to
He broke their hands apart and threw them on the ground, covered in mud and water, to calm down.
Everyone was in a very embarrassed state, covered in mud, and no one was laughing at them at this time.
Waiting for a familiar voice to penetrate her ears, she looked around and saw Chu Yue'er in a very embarrassed state. Bo Yuan's guards had thrown the sheets on the ground, with mud and water splashing over her body. She probably didn't expect to be treated like this, and said
She let out an exclamation. Her graceful voice was so familiar that I couldn’t forget it. She recognized it right away.
When they were sleeping before, they mocked the dazzled maid, but they didn't expect that Chu Yue'er was actually in this nunnery.
Manmiao glanced at Chu Yue'er in surprise, then turned to look at the maid who said she had seen Chu Yue'er that night. The maid also looked at Chu Yue'er dumbfounded, obviously not expecting that she was not dazzled, but actually real.
Saw it.
When Chu Yue'er saw Manmiao, a bit of embarrassment flashed across her face. She didn't know whether she was embarrassed that she had been caught sneaking over, or she was embarrassed that Manmiao had seen her in such a miserable state.
She got up in embarrassment, and the muddy water on her face slid down her cheeks, and fell drop by drop on her clothes. Most of her body was lying on the ground, which was covered with muddy water. To put it harshly, it looked like she was wearing clothes.
A rag that had just been picked up from the mud was dripping with muddy water.
It was originally in the middle of the night. With her outfit, her face splashed with mud, and her little face that was white and cold, she looked like a fresh zombie crawling out of a grave.
Meat was falling off as I walked.
Not to mention herself, even Manmei subconsciously took a few steps back, trying to keep a distance from her.
Seeing her walking towards Manmei, the Jiang family's maids looked at each other, making eye contact, and were discussing whether to stop her.
At this time, Qingpei stood in front of Manmei, blocking her in front, and shouted to Chu Yue'er, "What do you want to do?!"
Neither Manmiao nor Chu Yuer thought that Qingpei would come between them to protect Manmiao. They were both stunned, but they had different feelings in their hearts.
Because she hates Shan Boyuan, she is not very interested in several of his maids, but Qing Pei's performance this time makes Manmei feel that Shan Boyuan's maids are much more reliable than the Jiang family's maids at the critical moment.
It was Qingpei who kicked open the door and pulled her out, and now it was Qingpei who stood in front of her to stop Chu Yue'er who was covered in mud and water for her.
People who don't know better would think that Qing Pei is her personal maid.
This time, for safety reasons, the ones I brought with me were all skilled in martial arts. They all said that martial arts people are simple, but from the looks of Manmei, these maids are not simple at all. They are very thoughtful and want to choose a team between the two candidate hostesses.
There was a smile on the corner of her graceful mouth. In history, none of the final endings of this kind of wallflower would be good.
Chu Yue'er had never seen Qing Pei and was not sure where she came from. She looked at Man Miao and asked in confusion, "Where is my cousin?"
"I'm here. Why are you here?" Jiang Shang walked out of the nunnery quickly, wearing a summer singlet. He looked as if he had been awakened from his sleep, without even putting on a coat.
When Chu Yue'er saw Jiang Shang questioning her with a cold face, she shrank back in fright, and Nuonuo said, "I...I..." I waited for a long time, but no one came up with any explanation.
Jiang Shang looked at Chu Yue'er with an unkind expression. One of the two looked at her coldly, while the other stood in a state of confusion and confusion.
Manmei didn't say anything, just stood there and looked at Jiang Shang and Chu Yuer, without showing any emotion on her face.
Jiang Shang looked at Chu Yue'er for a while, then turned to speak to Manmiao, his tone was much slower and concerned, "Are you okay? I just saw the maid taking you out, and you were inside to help put out the fire."
Manmiao gathered up her cloak, looked at him and smiled gently, and said softly, "I'm fine, I was just startled. I walked quickly and I came out before the fire reached the room. It's fine."
"
Her smile was quiet and gentle. If Hua Feng were here, he would definitely find that it was a decent smile belonging to Su Youwei, not a graceful one.
Jiang Shang had something on his mind, but he didn't notice the difference in her smile. Manmei continued to maintain Su Youwei's unique and decent smile, and kept watching him directing firefighting matters at the fire scene.
Chu Yue'er seemed to be looking for something, she looked at the actions of the people present gracefully and calmly, and accidentally met Shan Bo's eyes. She continued to maintain a Su Youwei-like smile and thanked him for his blessing, which made Shan Bo
Yuan was stunned for a moment.
More than half of the nunnery was burned down, leaving only a few houses that were not burned down, but they were almost burned. Miaomiao was so cold that she was shaking and refused to go in. This shows how miserable it is, and even someone like her who has endured hardships can't bear it.
Hope, not to mention Shan Boyuan, your noble and delicate body.
The nuns in the nunnery were also homeless. Manmiao was standing in a place with many men. Some guards were separated to guard the surroundings to protect Manmiao and Shan Boyuan.
Naturally, the nuns couldn't get close to Manmiao, so they all hid far away on the other side.
Manmiao pulled Jiang Shang and said softly, "There is a bonfire here, which is warmer. Those nuns are huddled in the distance. It's a cold night in the mountains, so why don't we call them all together to warm themselves by the fire. There are many guards here, in case of thieves."
When you come back, you can still be well protected."
Jiang Shang took a distant look and saw that the nun opposite didn't even light a fire. Probably because he was afraid of being seen. Many people were wearing pajamas and they were all huddled together. They were far apart and couldn't see their faces clearly, so he shook his head and said, "These
They are all monks, and since they are unwilling to come here, they must have some scruples, so it is better not to force them."
Seeing what he said, Manmei gave up and looked at Shan Boyuan's carriage.
The carriage was very good. His carriage was parked outside and was dragged out by the guards. It was not burned. The carriage made of Manmiao was half burned, and the wood on the door and roof were burned. The Jiang family's carriage
It has an iron plate built into it. The iron plate is still there, and the oven is so black that it looks like an oven that hasn't been washed for a long time. Manmei won't sit in it.
Shan Boyuan was in poor health, so the guards helped him to the carriage to rest, and his four maids followed him in.
Manmei was very envious, but she couldn't spend the night in a carriage with other men. She could only sit on a stool and rest against the big tree. Fortunately, she grabbed a few quilts and shared them with Chu Yuer.
A thin quilt, wrapped up for the night.
A note to readers:
The new book is about a heroine who has kung fu. This kind of battle of wits and courage without kung fu is really not my strong point.
