Chapter 36: The Fire (Plus, Thanks for Your Support)
Just like at the beginning, when she was pushed into this position, she already had a premonition of her fate.
Later, it seems that it is difficult to escape from being bound, and there is a feeling of a caged bird.
Therefore, the cause of her mother's death caused her to erupt once, and only once.
She has neither the ability to change the status quo, nor the generosity of letting go of hatred, but only feels that the torment is like a year.
Xue Ling thought of the past like a cloud.
In the dark night, Xue Ling's palm hurt to the bone, and the smile on her lips was cold, at that time, it was the first time she had experienced such a blow, she only knew to ask about it, but she didn't know, there were many things, rather than fighting for right and wrong, it was better to win or lose.
Just like now, when Xue Ling encounters something, what she thinks about is not to delve into right and wrong, but to make a judgment quickly and let the situation develop in a more powerful direction for herself, which is the most important thing.
The world is like chess, unpredictable.
Now, at last, she is the one who controls the flag, not just a random flag, as she used to be.
Xue Ling and Yi were half-lying.
Naturally, there is no drowsiness at all.
The sound of whimpering outside the house.
It's like the night in my previous life.
Mother Jiang didn't dare to close her eyes.
The two did not talk.
Xue Ling kept holding the Chen wooden box in his left hand.
Jiang's mother sat on the side and cheered up.
Xue Ling's face was covered with a layer of light under the dim candlelight, but this light made Xue Ling look uncertain.
The night was getting deeper.
Mother Xu became more and more worried.
Xue Ling felt sorry for Jiang's mother, but she didn't ask Jiang's mother to rest.
Life and death are all in one move.
I don't know how long it took, perhaps, it didn't take long, but I heard some slight movement outside the house.
Mother Jiang immediately glanced at Xue Ling.
Xue Ling just nodded slightly.
It's finally here.
After a while, there was a fire outside.
Because of the incense left in the room, the two of them were already a little weak.
Xue Ling heard the faint sound of footsteps outside.
Jiang's mother was shocked.
Xue Ling held Jiang's mother's hand.
I only heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer outside the house.
Jiang's mother even stopped breathing.
Mother Jiang looked at Xue Ling, different from Xue Ling's calmness, Mother Jiang's face was a look of anxiety.
Compared with her own life, Jiang's mother was more worried about Xue Ling.
Outside the house, a fire lit up, and soon, the fire grew louder and louder. Mixed with the sound of the wind, the fire gradually spread.
Xue Ling was silent for a moment.
Experiencing all this firsthand, it is as if I feel how the life of my mother in the previous life was swallowed up in this dark night.
There seemed to be tears in his eyes, and his cheeks were cold.
Mother Jiang was just a little girl and was scared silly, and picked up Xue Ling, "Girl, don't be afraid." ”
Xue Ling had come back to her senses, and she reached out to wipe the tears from her eyes.
The whole person has completely calmed down.
"Nurse, I'm not afraid, I've already instructed Jiang Xu, we have to believe him."
Jiang's mother naturally believes in her son, her son is bold and careful, and she has to complete what the girl commands.
But she didn't dare to joke with the girl's life.
Even the slightest joke won't do.
Jiang's mother was about to get up.
Xue Ling grabbed the corner of her clothes, "Nurse, don't panic." ”
Mother Jiang turned around and saw that Xue Ling's face had recovered to its original state.
She was a little relieved.
Xue Ling picked up the two squares of handkerchiefs that had been prepared long ago and handed them to Jiang's mother, "Dip some water, soak the handkerchief, and cover your mouth and nose." ”
Mother Jiang's legs and feet were weak, and she whispered, "Girl, when will you call for help?" ”
Xue Ling shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'll add another fire." ”
She picked up the lamp on the side, and knocked it to the ground at will, and the spark fell on the curtain, which was already very dry, and caught fire when it caught fire!
The fire outside the house was fast, the fire inside the house was even faster, and soon, the flames were strung together on the beams.
"Girl," Jiang's mother became more and more anxious, and called in a low voice.
Xue Ling said, "Nurse, call for help." ”
Jiang's mother was instructed to avoid the fire and immediately shouted for help.
Xue Ling had already gotten up and threw the sunken wooden box in his hand into the fire, and the dark wooden box quickly sank slowly in the fire.
Mother Jiang turned her head, just saw this scene, opened her mouth, and was shocked for a while, she followed Jiang Yue to serve closely for all these years, naturally she knew what this sunken wooden box was, this is the lifeblood of the Xue family, and it is the foundation of the entire Xue family's inheritance.
The girl was thrown into the fire lightly.
Xue Ling watched quietly, only the sound of fire was heard outside the house, and in the dark night, this sound seemed to reveal the arrogance that consumed everything.
Xue Ling's hand reached into the fire and reached towards the already burning wooden box.
Jiang's mother was saying, "Girl, what should I do now, will this fire not be controlled?" ”
Seeing Xue Ling's actions, he couldn't help but be in a hurry, and hurriedly came over to snatch Xue Ling's hand.
Xue Ling's right hand had already touched the box in the fire.
The little girl's skin was already soft, and when she touched it like this, she was already burned by the fire in an instant.
"Girl," Mother Jiang snatched Xue Ling's hand and held it to see, the skin in her palm had festered.
Mother Jiang looked at Xue Ling, and finally couldn't help but feel distressed and said, "Girl, stupid or not, why are you?" ”
After asking half a sentence, I really don't know how to ask.
Jiang's mother didn't understand Xue Ling's intentions, only to see Xue Ling throw the wooden box into the fire, and then reached out to grab it.
Xue Ling only felt that her palm was a little numb, and it took a while to notice the pain, and a smile tugged at the corner of her lips, "Nurse, wait until you go out, don't say anything, everything has its own judgment." ”
Mother Xu picked up Xue Ling's hand and couldn't help tears in her eyes, "Why is it so badly injured, it won't be better in ten days and half a month, how can this be good." ”
Xue Ling endured the pain, what she destroyed was the Xue family's inheritance medical book, and the stakes were so high at this time, if she wanted to be unscathed, it was really unreasonable.
And this burn can not only be shirked, but also just enough time for her to deal with the two uncles and the elders of the clan.
