Of course, Dou Zhao would not be naïve to think that his eyebrows and angry eyes would make the eldest lady obediently hand over the pair of cards of the British Mansion.

Isn't Song Yichun going to Xuantong for half a month?

I still have time!

She smiled and entertained Song Han, who had left school.

"This is the autumn white pear from Shandong, this is the pine nut candy from Suzhou, this is the Taomen jujube from Nanjing, and this is the tangerine ...... Tangqi" She pointed to the melon and fruit snacks on the kang table, "I don't know what the second master likes to eat, so I prepared a little bit of everything." ”

Song Han looked at the drool.

"Sister-in-law, you're so nice." He ate pine nut candy and said vaguely, "I also know that pears are the best autumn white in Shandong, and tangerines are the sweetest in Tangqi...... I was worried that my sister-in-law would come from the countryside and wouldn't understand anything, so I wouldn't be able to go together. As he spoke, he smiled at Dou Zhao, which was quite a bit of Song Mo's brilliance.

Song Han is also a beautiful man, but compared to Song Mo, he is like Hyosung Haoyue, not on the same level.

Of course, what can be compared with Song Mo, Dou Shi has never seen it in two lives, and he doesn't blame Song Han.

Thinking of this, Dou Zhao flashed a trace of sympathy for Song Han in his heart.

She personally made a pot for Song Han of the newly listed Tieguanyin.

Tieguanyin is slightly bitter, pine nut candy is sweet, drinking Tieguanyin and eating pine nut candy, Tieguanyin becomes more and more mellow, pine nut candy becomes more and more sweet, and Song Han's face is full of comfort.

Dou Zhao asked about Song Han's daily life: "Who usually takes care of the second master?" Are the maids and maids obedient? Tight on schoolwork? Is the monthly routine enough? "A caring sister-in-law.

Song Han was not disgusted, and talked to her about the things in his house. As he spoke, the topic shifted to hunting, and Song Han was suddenly excited: "...... When I was nine years old, I shot two golden pheasants and a hare! ”

This is something that Song Han is quite proud of, and he often takes it out and says it. There is nothing up and down the British government that they don't know, and Dou Zhao has naturally heard of it a long time ago.

She was amazed and had fun on the sidelines.

Song Han was even more energetic: "I was originally going to participate in the Autumn Wai when I was ten years old, just like my brother, but unfortunately my mother died, and I want to keep the ......" When he said this, a trace of confusion flashed on his face, as if he had lost his goal, and he didn't know where to go in the future.

Maybe. Song Han competed with Song Mo everywhere in order to show Mrs. Jiang?

Dou Zhao guessed, followed Song Han with a sigh, and comforted him: "The second master is so good, there will be opportunities in the future." ”

Song Han nodded. But there is no longer the joy of before.

Dou Zhao saw that it was not early, so he left Song Han for dinner, and said, "The second master just told me about Qiuwei." I only know that if you want to be an official, you must participate in the imperial examination, civil officials participate in the civil examination, and military attaches participate in the military examination, and it is the first time that I have heard that you can also become an official in the test of riding and archery. ”

Song Han smiled and talked to Dou Zhao about Qiuwei.

Su Xin and a few maids set up dishes and chopsticks in the hall.

Lu Zheng came over and wanted to invite Song Han back to the upper room for dinner.

Dou Zhao smiled: "I'm ready here." Let the second master eat here with me! ”

Lu Zheng looked at Song Han.

Song Hanzheng was talking about the important point, and when he saw Lu Zheng asking him to show him, he waved his hand at Lu Zheng and motioned him to retreat.

Lu Zheng humbly saluted Dou Zhao and Song Han. Retreated.

Dou Zhao was thoughtful.

Song Han clearly did not lose his freedom.

According to Song Mo, Song Han has been very close to him since he was a child, because Song Yichun didn't like Song Han to have too much interaction with him, and he didn't want Song Han to be embarrassed. The brothers have not been as close as before, but Song Han sees him every time. It's still very affectionate to him.

In that case, why didn't Song Han go to see Song Mo often?

She thought of her previous life, she was strict and guarded, and she unabashedly revealed her disgust for the Zhu family, and Brother Wei and Brother Rui still tried their best to see the Zhu family...... If you really think about someone, shouldn't you want to see him all the time? And the more painful and sorrowful it is, the more you want to be comforted and persuaded by that person?

Song Han only blindly behaved as a filial son.

Or, in Song Han's heart, his father is more important than his brother?

Dou Zhao tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Thinking of the events of the previous life, she felt more and more that Song Han had failed Song Mo's brotherhood towards him.

Song Mo is coming back tomorrow, do you want to tell him about it?

Thinking that Song Mo was kept in the dark, she felt wronged for Song Mo, and she was upset for Song Mo, and she couldn't sleep anymore.

She simply sat up in her clothes.

Su Xin, who was on duty at night, had always been careful, and when he heard the movement, he also sat up.

"Madame, do you want me to move the lamp over?"

In the curtain, only a small octagonal palace lamp was lit on the small pestle.

"No need." Dou Zhao said a little abruptly, "I just can't sleep, get up and sit down for a while." ”

Su Xin said "um" and poured a cup of tea for Dou Zhao.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside.

The two of them were stunned, and Dou Zhao even instructed Su Xin: "You go and see what happened." ”

Su Xin answered.

The noise grew louder and louder, faintly mixed with the woman's cries.

Dou Zhao couldn't help frowning.

Su Xin turned back: "Madam, the horse shed in front of you is out of water." ”

Why are you so careless?!

Dou Zhao just couldn't sleep, so he put off his shoes and said, "Look at it!" ”

Su Xin responded and accompanied Dou Zhao out of the main room.

The fire was fierce, burning half of the sky, the men's roars, the women's crying, the chaos and noise rushed towards them, standing under the porch of the main house, you could feel the panic and disorder in the front yard.

The people in the main courtyard of Yizhitang were all awakened, and the maids and women came out to watch one after another, and they gathered together in twos and threes to discuss.

Seeing Dou Zhao come out, they all bowed their knees, their faces full of uneasiness.

Dou Zhao looked up at the sky, felt the direction of the wind again, and said to everyone: "We are in the north, and it is the north wind blowing today, and it is impossible for the fire to burn." Even if the wind direction changes and Yee Chi Tong does not have a building connected to the front yard, we will have enough time to put out the fire. She instructed Su Xin: "You go and ask Mr. Yan what is going on?" Are there any injuries or missing? The fire in the Guogong Mansion is a big deal, has it been reported to the Shuntian Mansion? When will the people of Suncheonfu come? He also instructed Su Lan, "You go and talk to Wuyi, and ask him to call all the people in the main courtyard together." Guarding at the gate, as soon as the wind changes direction and the fire spreads, they will come to me immediately. Then he pointed to a few rough mothers-in-law, and let a shrewd and outward daughter-in-law lead them: "Go and see if the water tanks in the corners of the wall are full?" If it is full, you will all wait on the spot for the command, and help Wuyi and them to fetch water. But if the tank is not full, now go and fetch water, and fill it up. ”

There is a kitchenette in the main courtyard of Yi Zhi Hall.

It's talking about kitchenettes. There are seven star stoves, firewood houses, and wells all there.

"As for the others," Dou Zhao called out to Manna and Su Juan, "you will each take half of the people back to the house to rest, and when necessary, come out to help put out the fire." ”

Everyone saw that she looked calm and calm. Thoughtful and well-organized, I couldn't help but feel confident and began to act as she was told.

Dou Zhao stood under the corridor and observed the fire.

The shrewd and outgoing daughter-in-law moved a Taishi chair over and said earnestly: "Madam, you take a break." With Su Xin and Su Lan leading us, there will be nothing wrong! ”

Dou Zhao saw that she was quite clever. Ask her, "What do you call it?" ”

The woman hurriedly said: "The man of the slave maid's family is called Lu Yi, and his father-in-law once worked as a village head in the grange in Anliang. Today, he works at a grocery store in Kyoto. ”

Anliang's grange is Mrs. Jiang's dowry.

No wonder this woman was placed on duty in the upper room.

Dou Zhao nodded slightly.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the east group house where the people lived next to the stable also burned.

Fortunately, the wind direction has not changed.

Su Xin hurried back: "Madam, Mr. Yan said. It is still unclear why the stables went off fire, the fire is still very large. It is also not known if anyone was injured. But someone has been sent to report to Shuntianfu, but the prison of Shuntianfu also had an accident tonight, it seems that someone robbed the prison, I am afraid that I will not be able to spare manpower to put out the fire for a while, Mr. Tao has taken the tribute of the grandfather of the country to the Wucheng Terracotta Division, and someone over there should soon come to help put out the fire. He added, "Now Mr. Yan is leading the Xia guards and others to help put out the fire—Mr. Tao advocated opening the weeping flower door and letting the guards carry water from the lake in the back garden; Mr. Yan did not agree to open the hanging flower door, and advocated that the wing rooms on the other side of the east group house should be demolished. As a result, the Chang guards led the guards on the side of the Guogong Mansion to carry water, and Mr. Yan led our people to demolish the wings. ”

Whether it was Mr. Yan or Mr. Tao, they didn't think of letting Song Han come forward.

Dou Zhao felt a little strange.

The fire was still burning, the air was filled with the smell of fireworks, cries for help and shouts appeared from time to time, everyone's expressions were awe-inspiring, on such a strict occasion, Dou Zhao thought of the clear distinction between the British Mansion and Yizhitang, and couldn't help but laugh.

I don't know what Song Yichun will think when he sees this mess in the courtyard?

Su Xin and Lu Yijia looked at each other.

Dou Zhao hurriedly said: "It's nothing, I just thought of Mr. Yan and Mr. Tao...... I agree with Mr. Yan's idea. Lu Yi's family, you are busy with your going, I will also go back to the house to rest first. Since Mr. Yan and Mr. Tao are here, there must be nothing wrong. ”

Lu Yijia respectfully responded "yes" and went to check the water tank.

Dou Zhao and Su Xin went back to the room, but how could Dou Zhao sleep, the two sat on the kang and chatted: "Listening to the tone of the second master, it turns out that the people who served him were all selected by Mrs. Jiang for him." After Madame Chiang's death, the British government released all the people who had served Madame Chiang, and all the people around him were newly replaced in the past two years. Tell Mr. Yan later, and let him check for me, where are all the people who were released at that time? What are you doing? ”

Su Xin nodded and said in a deep voice, "Do you suspect that someone knows about Madam Jiang?" ”

"It's just a clue." Dou Zhao pondered, "There are still some things that I haven't figured out, and I want to find someone to confirm them." ”

Dou Zhao didn't say anything, Su Xin never asked much, and this time was the same.

Suddenly there was a knock outside the door.

The little guy shouted "Who is it", and was about to answer the door, but was stopped by Wuyi.

"Who is it?" He asked in a gruff voice, looking a little overbearing.
