Chapter 268: The Great Fire (1)
The night is thick, the moon is in the middle of the sky, the entire Qionghua Courtyard is silent, everyone should be sleeping soundly, right?
That maid is vigorous and resolute, and at first glance she has practiced diǎn real kung fu!
In the moonlight, she skillfully opened the bolt of the window with her hands and feet, and jumped into the window of the small storeroom at once. ※%※%diǎn※%small※%Say,o
She's about to laugh out loud!
She had so effortlessly entered the little treasury of this incomparable young lady! She was so full of ambition that she couldn't help but be relieved......
At this moment, she only needs to find the bag with the medicine bowl and the residue in it, and she's done!
She took out the fire fold that she had prepared and was about to blow it up, but the entire small warehouse was instantly lit up!
It turned out that there were already three fierce gods and evil spirits in this small warehouse, and the mother-in-law holding the stick and the two maids holding the lamp were waiting for them here!
Seeing the "little thief" who broke in through the window, everyone was not polite, and directly picked up the long stick in his hand and greeted her.
Seeing that she was outnumbered, this maid wanted to wait for an opportunity to escape at first, but only then did she find that the outside of the window had been dǐng at the moment, and the other party just wanted to "close the door and beat the dog"!
Rao is she really has some skills, but in the face of the sticks of several five big and three thick mothers-in-law, it is simply to hit the stone with an egg, she immediately bowed down and knelt on the ground and begged for mercy again and again, and was defeated......
And how could Mrs. Li escape outside the window?
When she saw the maid enter the small storeroom, she was relieved and ready to retreat to the corner to let the wind blow.
But when the light suddenly turned on, she realized that she had been fooled!
Mrs. Li turned around and prepared to escape. She quickly ran to the courtyard gate and remembered that the gate was locked! In a hurry, where could she quickly unlock it?
Before she could get her key into the keyhole, she was seized.
Shen Moyun's two second-class maids didn't know when they started guarding the gate of this courtyard. At this time, a person came up and grabbed her arms.
The opportunity to escape was fleeting, and the mother-in-law with a long stick in her hand had already arrived, and easily tied up the mother-in-law Li and threw it into the yard with the maid she had just caught.
Shen Moyun hit diǎn early, these days, the entire Qionghua Courtyard is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and even Mama Gu was pulled in by Shen Moyun to help under the pretext of celebrating the New Year together!
This afternoon. After Mrs. Li appeared to inquire about the news, Shen Moyun found someone to watch her whereabouts.
In addition, Shen Moyun arranged it early. As soon as it was dark, the other two mothers-in-law who went home on the grounds of "New Year" quietly returned to the yard through the back door, and when Mrs. Li went to the thatched house, she arranged everyone into the small warehouse, just waiting for a fight in the middle of the night.
These two mothers-in-law were the two who followed Shen Moyun in Meilin that day to find trouble with Shen Moqing. Since Shen Moyun transferred the two of them to Qionghua Academy. They were as grateful to the little master as they were to their parents. I can't wait to dig out my heart and lungs to offer. Shen Moyun did not treat them badly, and the monthly rules and rewards he gave were much higher than those in the courtyard outside. After the temptation, she was extremely relieved of these two people, and ordered them to work hard in the past few days, and do her best to listen to her own arrangements......
At this moment, Mrs. Li and the little maid were stolen and seized inside and outside the treasury in full view of everyone, if they didn't try, they wouldn't believe it!
Fortunately, their girls were alert, otherwise there would have been something stolen in the courtyard for the New Year. How do you explain it to the girl?
The key is that Mrs. Li is still familiar with each other, and at this moment, she even colluded with outsiders to cross the river and tear down the bridge! If it wasn't for the girl's early discovery. When the time comes, the things in the treasury will be missing, lacking, and stolen, who can say clearly? I am afraid that the servants in the courtyard of Qionghua Courtyard will all suffer! This Mrs. Li is obviously harming people......
Besides, everyone should have had a good time on the first day of the new year, eating and drinking, scratching cards, and sleeping! This is good, in order to catch these two thieves, she and the others are so sore that they are waiting, and their legs and feet are numb, and they don't sleep in the middle of the night, and they have to follow the cold wind at this moment......
The more people thought about it, the more angry they became, and they couldn't help but scold around them, and they worked harder to greet them with sticks in their hands......
Lan Xinhui and Hui Xin took advantage of everyone's righteous indignation to "check" the warehouse, and in the box in the corner of the small warehouse, they had already prepared two large barrels of oil......
At this moment, all the attention of everyone was on the two thieves who were tied up in the courtyard, and where did they notice the movement in the warehouse in the distance.
After half a cup of tea, with a hiss from Lan Xin, everyone followed the prestige.
It turned out that the small warehouse where the person had just been arrested had already ignited a raging flame.
The fire erupted almost instantaneously and was spreading rapidly......
Everyone ran quickly, but they saw that the girl with a heart was falling by the door of the storeroom.
And Nalan Xin was rushing out of the burning warehouse.
Everyone stepped forward to pull up Hui Xin, who had fallen to the ground, and pulled Lan Xin, only to find that both of them were injured.
Nalan Xin's elbow was scratched, and a lot of blood was spilling out, and Na Huixin was a large bruise on his forehead, thinking that he had just hit somewhere!
"Quick, you two legs are fast!" Lan Xin pointed to the two mothers-in-law, "You guys go and chase after it!
Everyone was shocked! The man in black set fire?
Just caught two thieves, and someone came to set fire to the hind foot?
Yes! Yes! If someone hadn't set the fire, how could the fire have exploded all at once? Isn't the smell of oil in the air the same as the smell of someone setting the fire?
"That man in black has gone over the wall! Hurry up and chase him! If you tell him to run away, we won't be able to tell!"
The two mothers-in-law reacted at once, and hurriedly picked up their sticks and rushed out! Yes! On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the storehouse caught fire, and if they caught someone, it would be just them who were to catch them; if they couldn't catch anyone, if the old lady pursued them, wouldn't it be them who were the unlucky ones who guarded the yard! Didn't these turtle grandsons come to harm them? The two began to curse fiercely!
Lan Xinhui had a tacit understanding and quietly glanced at each other, very satisfied.
You must know that these two strong mothers-in-law are the main force of this Qionghua Courtyard, and they are going to catch thieves at this moment, which means that there are two less fire-fighting cadres in this courtyard.
The rest of the people are two injured maids, a few helpless maids and an older Gu Mama, with these few people, it is simply wishful thinking to extinguish this fire in time!
Sure enough, several people were in a hurry, and they didn't know whether to call for help or fetch water first.
After such a delay, the fire suddenly burned more vigorously, and gradually spread to the firewood room.
