Chapter 76: Fanning the Flames
Yun Jiao took a few steps back, and finally stabilized her figure.
When I looked closely, I saw the second aunt lying on the back of the second uncle, and the second aunt reached out to push her, almost pushing her back.
No matter how smart she is, she is only ten years old, and she suddenly encountered such a thing, and in front of these many people, she couldn't think of a way to deal with it for a while, so she could only purse her lips and stand there, looking at it in a daze.
"Yun Jiao, Daze, come on!" Aunt Qian is no matter how soft her temperament is, Yunjiao is also her own child.
When she saw her daughter, who had always been able to make up her mind about everything, she looked at a loss, and she was reluctant to do so, so she hurriedly beckoned to her.
Yun Jiao reacted when she heard this, although she didn't believe in those ghosts and gods, but she had the opportunity to be angry with her second aunt, so she was naturally reluctant to let it go.
She immediately lowered her eyebrows, looked like she was listening to her aunt's words with low eyebrows, and hurried towards the fire fork.
Seeing this, Ding Shi immediately became anxious, and slapped Qian Shihai on the back of the head: "I told you to let me down!" β
Qian Shihai was originally considerate of her injured foot, and thought that it would be the same to carry her on his back and step in with her, the fire fork was just a ritual, and there was no need to pay attention to it.
Ding, however, felt that he had to lift his feet and step over.
On the way, Ding had already mentioned this matter, and Qian Shihai couldn't argue with her, so she could only make the decision.
In addition, at this moment, the mother-in-law didn't look at the occasion and slapped the back of his head in front of many people, Qian Shihai felt too embarrassed.
didn't insist anymore, straightened up directly, put her on the edge of the fire fork, and said angrily: "You cross, you cross yourself!" β
If this was in normal times, Qian Shihai dared to speak to Ding's like this, she was afraid that she would have to lift the roof before she stopped.
But at this moment, she couldn't take care of that much, and one step later, Yun Jiao stepped in, and she was the last to get home.
It's too unlucky to enter the door until it's imminent, absolutely not.
She stood on one leg, and did not forget to tell Qian Shihai in her mouth: "You should hurry up and keep up, don't fall to the top." β
Yun Jiao was pushed back a few steps by her, and naturally she couldn't catch up with her at this moment, because she was originally standing on the edge of the fire fork.
But she is light-handed, her movements are unhindered, and straddling the fire fork is just a gesture and a blink of an eye.
Seeing this, Ding was in a hurry, hurriedly repeated the old tricks, and raised his hand to push Yunjiao.
Yun Jiao had already taken precautions this time, and Ding was standing on one leg, so she didn't have much strength, and only pushed her back slightly.
Ding knew that he couldn't delay any longer, so when she was retreating, he directly stepped out of the injured left foot, intending to seize the opportunity.
She imagined in her heart that this injured foot only took such a step, and it was all right.
But she overestimated her ability to bear the pain, and besides, the bone in her foot was broken, and it hurt if she didn't touch it, let alone stepping on the ground to bear the weight of her body?
As soon as her feet hit the ground, she screamed in pain, her legs went weak, and she fell directly to the ground.
Yun Jiao was so frightened that she hurriedly took two steps back, with her hands behind her back, intending to show that she had never done anything to clear up the situation.
Ding's tears of pain flowed everywhere, and she was wearing a dark green water-patterned jacket today, with a pair of extremely thick cotton pants underneath, and a filial piety dress outside, and her feet were really painful, so she didn't notice for a while that she was sitting on the red-hot fire fork, and only cared about opening her mouth and crying there.
Seeing this, Qian Shihai hurriedly pulled her, but she only felt pain, and her injured foot did not make any decisions, so she never got up for a while.
The ladies were frightened and hurriedly tried to help her, but Ding insisted on holding his legs and crying, and his body seemed to be stuck to the ground.
Yun Jiao's uncles had the heart to help, but when they thought about it, they were all men, and they were afraid that it would be inappropriate if they pulled it, and the Ding family was not a person who knew how to repay their kindness, and if they didn't get it, they would be bitten back, and several people had scruples in their hearts, so they stood aside and watched together, and no one stepped forward to help.
It's too late and too fast, and these things happen almost all at the same time in an instant.
Just when the ladies were about to help Ding up, Ding's cotton pants crotch suddenly burst out of a ball of flames.
When everyone suddenly saw the fire, they were frightened and scattered.
Ding sat down again, almost out of breath in pain.
But she didn't dare to carry it, for fear that she would be burned to death like this.
It was probably too painful, but she was much more awake at the moment, and she couldn't care about the sharp pain in her feet, so she hurriedly rolled to the side, reached out to pat the fire in her crotch, and shouted: "Hurry, come quickly, scoop up water!" β
Speaking of which, this was when she was pressed by the coffin, struggling to get out, and someone pulled her from the side, but her feet did not come out, but the crotch of the cotton pants was torn open, revealing some cotton wool outside.
At that time, she was blocked by a skirt and filial piety clothes, and others never saw it, so she only quietly stuffed the cotton wool inside, thinking that it would not be too late to come back and change it.
But unexpectedly, another disaster occurred.
She just sat down like that, and the cotton wool happened to cover the red-hot fire fork, and after a moment's delay, wouldn't it set herself on fire!
She shouted to scoop up water, but the well was far away from the gate, how could she get there?
Everyone was at a loss for a while, but because the part where the fire was located was extremely special, it was not easy to help her extinguish it, so they could only watch it dryly, and they couldn't make a sound.
Qian Shihai almost fainted in anger, what is this? Hurriedly urging the next person to fetch water.
Yun Jiao stood on the side and watched coldly, knowing that as long as she covered her clothes, the flame would naturally not ignite, but she didn't open her mouth to remind her.
She knew that her aunt's words were reasonable, and she also knew that Qian Sheng was a good one, and she shouldn't ruin his future.
But she still complained about her grandmother in her heart, why did her grandmother go after all the hardships, and the evildoer still lived decently and did not hurt a bit?
Maybe she was smashed by a coffin and broke her foot, which was really the retribution given to her by her grandmother in the dark, but what about this moment? Could it be retribution too? Is it also the punishment given to her by her grandmother?
If it is, then that's fine.
Thinking like this, Yun Jiao's heart was much happier.
It didn't take long for her to notice Qian Sheng squeezing out of the crowd.
She hurriedly took the first step, picked up the silver basin full of paper ash on the side, and poured her head and face towards Ding.
Generally, the paper is burned in the ashtray in the hall, and the silver basin is placed at the gate, and the paper is ordered when it is sent, which is considered to be a faΓ§ade.
Yun Jiao said loudly: "Second uncle, you endure it, you can't scoop the water in time, this paper ash can also extinguish the fire, but I have wronged you!" β
She knew that Qian Sheng was calm, and when she came, she would definitely ask Ding to cover the flames, and the fire would naturally be extinguished.
She was in a hurry, and she happened to see the silver basin, which could make the Ding family suffer more, which was excellent.
A basin of paper ash was splashed down, and immediately scattered one after another, and everyone covered their noses and took a step back.
Ding bore the brunt of the attack, and naturally he was discouraged, choking and coughing, almost unable to stop.
She didn't bother to blame Yun Jiao, she hurriedly looked down and saw that the fire was really extinguished.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Qian Sheng hurriedly went to help her: "Grandmother, such a small fire can be extinguished by covering it with clothes, and you use your hands to extinguish it, isn't it fanning the flames?" β
