Chapter 5: It's all burned out

The courtyard of the Xia family is one of the best in the entire Xitang Street, sitting north and facing south, surrounded by high walls on all sides. On the north side of the courtyard is the main house, built on a brick and stone pedestal, with a hall and three bedrooms. To the east is a subordinate room and two guest rooms, and to the west is the kitchen. These are brick houses, and the houses are connected by corridors.

However, the utility house in the south and the thatched house in the southwest corner are both wooden structures, and the utility room is not very high, only more than half of the wall

A little.

There is a large open space between the houses in the north and south of the courtyard, because there has just been a heavy rain, and there are some small puddles.

Now, all the people were on the other side of the hall, and the argument was getting louder and louder.

Shu Yao flashed into the utility room, pushed open the wooden door at the exit of the cellar, pushed down the bag of hay that had been placed on the surface, and then grabbed a handful of hay and lit it on an oil lamp and threw it into the cellar.

Then he lit two handfuls of hay and threw them on the innermost haystack and the firewood pile, quickly withdrew, and "fell" in the place between the thatched hut and the utility room, and the oil lamp "just happened" to fall on the side of the pile of firewood near the door, and quickly ignited.

With Shu Yao's screams and wah-wah-wah, the people in the hall who were arguing saw the raging fire in shock.

Shujie was the first to run out: "Yao'er, Yao'er", there was deep fear in his voice, he had just lost his father and mother, only his brother and sister were left, and he couldn't bear the possibility of losing either.

"Woo woo, big brother, I'm here, woo woo, big brother, I'm afraid ......" Shu Yao was still lying on the ground crying.

Shujie rushed over and picked up Shu Yao, who was covered in mud, and couldn't help but cry like rain: "Yao'er is not afraid, the eldest brother is here, not afraid."

The Xia family and the Zhen family were still stunned by the fire, and Qingfu yelled at them: "Fight the fire, why are you stunned!" Chunsheng, you are here looking at the book. So saying, he ran to the well in front of the kitchen, and the neighbors who had just returned not long ago also came with pots and pokes.

Cuizhu seemed to have just woken up, and suddenly screamed: "Grandma, the cellar, the things are in the cellar." ”

The Zhen family and the Xia family all woke up, but they didn't dare to rush in when they looked at the fire...... I'm in a hurry!

It's gone, it's all gone.

Buckets and buckets of water were poured into the fire, but to no avail. The all-timber roof is filled with hay and firewood......

Hehe, burn, burn, burn everything in it to ashes! Burn all those greedy and vicious hearts to ashes! At this moment, Shu Yao wanted to look up to the sky and smile. It's so happy to see the faces of the eldest uncle, the eldest aunt, and the eldest uncle and the third uncle, who are as painful as their dead fathers!

As the beams and shelves of the utility room continued to collapse, the enthusiasm in the hearts of Zhen Dafu and Xia Linyu gradually turned cold. Silver, precious medicinal herbs, obviously an hour ago were still beckoning to them, but now they are all flying, all gone.

Shu Yao heard the sound of knocking from a distant place, and she knew that the time was almost up, and the fire would soon be extinguished.

Zhen Dafu suddenly rushed over and raised his hand to hit Shu Yao, "You evil obstacle, a loser!" ”

Shujie held Shu Yao in his arms and protected: "What are you doing?" Why did you hit Yao'er, Yao'er didn't mean it, she was scared herself. ”

Uncle Li pulled Shujie, who was holding Shu Yao, behind him, and all the neighbors also hugged him:

"What is so strange about such a young child carrying an oil lamp to a thatched house, and the ground is full of potholes? What did you do all the time? ”

"It's still a relative, I don't know what Lu Dao is arguing about as soon as I come? No one cares when the children go to the hut. ”

"This burn is also the burning of the utility room of other scholars' houses, what does it have to do with you? Defeat has not defeated your family's things. ”

"That's it, Sister Yao, don't be afraid, the neighbors will help you build the utility room and thatched house again, good boy is not afraid!"

……

"Boom, la, la---" The pouring rain suddenly fell.

The crowd hurried to the corridor between the houses, and the fire was completely extinguished.

The strange thing is that this pouring rain seems to be just to extinguish the fire, and it soon stopped, Zhen Dafu and his wife and the Xia family hurriedly ran into the ruins, Cuizhu ran to the position of the exit of the cellar, there is a big hole, but unfortunately the ladder is not burned, and there are black ashes below, and most of it has collapsed, and it can't dig anything, right?

When the Xia Linyu brothers saw the expressions of Cuizhu and Zhen Dafu, they knew that all the valuable things of Xia Linxuan's family were in this cellar, but now, they were all burned out.

In that case, why are they still here? Waiting for the money to raise these three evil seeds?

"Shujie, take out the title deed of this yard and let me keep it, it is not safe for you three children to hold it." Xia Linyu shouted at Shujie, you can't run this trip in vain, this courtyard is still worth a little money, and you can't cheapen the Zhen family in vain.

Xia Shujie replied coldly: "Five days ago, I turned fifteen years old and tied my hair, and my mother transferred this courtyard to my name, and the government has registered it, so it's useless for you to take it, uncle." "The Great Zhou Law decrees that after a man reaches fifteen hairties and a woman reaches fifteen hair, he can have his own property in his name, and once the government registers, even his parents cannot take possession of it casually.

"Uncle, can we find you if our three children don't have anything to eat in the future?" Shu Yao's big almond eyes looked at Xia Linyu innocently.

"You...... You are a disaster, a ruined spirit" Xia Linyu remembered that the entire large box of silver and precious medicinal materials was burned by Shu Yao's "fall", and he was angry, "Your father was originally a concubine, and he has already been separated, and it has nothing to do with our Xia Mansion, and we have no obligation to support you." ”

"Okay, you remember these words, we have nothing to do with you for a long time, if you come to trouble us again, the sky will thunder!" Shu Yao's immature voice said viciously.

"You evil obstacle", Xia Linyu was about to rush over, "boom" and "boom" two thunderbolts in a row smashed down, deafening, louder than the two thunderbolts that woke up Shu Yao two hours ago.

Shu Yao secretly rejoiced, the time was just right, no, there should be another one, in her previous life, she was frightened by these three thunders, it is said to be the loudest thunder in the history of the Great Zhou, and later some people said that several people were killed by thunder this night.

Shu Yao immediately raised her little finger and pointed at Zhen Dafu: "And you, my mother said that you are not welcome in our family"

"Little rabbit cub ---" Zhen Dafu's scolding voice did not fall, "boom", and there was another deafening loud noise, as if it fell on his head.

Xia Linyu and Zhen Dafu were really frightened, not only them, but also the younger brothers, nephews, and even Cuizhu who came with Lin and Xia Linyu were frightened, they had never seen such a loud thunder, and it didn't rain when it rained.

The fire, the rain, and the thunder just now were so weird, they thought that Donnie Yen's coffin was still in the hall, and when they thought of Shu Yao's vicious sentence "The sky thundered" and "My mother said that you are not welcome", they all shivered and got goosebumps, and their legs began to weaken.

There are a lot of people who are scolded for "thunder and thunder", but no one has ever been really hacked, and they are split so fast, almost just scolding that stinky girl and splitting in response!

The neighbors didn't think there was anything wrong with the little Shuyao scolding "thunder and thunder in the sky", there were few people reading on this street, most of them were rough people. The family quarrels, the neighbors make trouble, often scold such words, children will inevitably learn the same when they hear it, three or four-year-old children scold people with their waists They have seen a lot, and they will feel funny, Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed.

However, Xiao Shuyao scolded really "level" today, and there was really Thor's help to help her, everyone was shocked by the loud thunder, but they were not afraid, and they didn't come to split them. This is called "don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door." If you do something bad, you will be afraid of splitting when you thunder. ”
