Bai Yunge breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "We still have to be the same as before, otherwise people will find clues, as for the residence, I will make a bunk next to the bed in the future." ”

Qin Zijin thought that last night, if Bai Yunge hadn't woken her up in time, their family might have really been buried in the fire.

For the sake of his own safety, Qin Zijin finally compromised and promised to try the same as before before people, keep a distance behind people, wait for the danger to be lifted later, and then talk about peace and departure.

As soon as the two of them finished talking, the village chief's voice came from outside.

At this time, the village chief came over, there must be something wrong, Qin Zijin hurriedly got up and went out, and followed the eldest grandfather and the village chief into the hall.

was beckoned to sit down in the hall, and the village chief didn't wait for the Qin family to ask, so he took the first step and said, "The fire in Zijin's yard should be inseparable from Qin Jinbao and Bai Guangyao. ”

Qin Dahai sank his face, "It's just too deceitful, this time they will definitely be handed over to the government for severe punishment." ”

The village chief sighed, "They are gone, I asked people to turn the village upside down, and I didn't find anyone, but I heard Mrs. Wu at the entrance of the village say that she got up last night and vaguely heard the sound of horses' hooves, and she thought it was because she was old and had auditory hallucinations, so she didn't care too much." ”

Qin Dahai frowned and replied, "How could they have horses?" ”

Qin Zijin had a heavy expression, it was impossible for Qin Jinbao and Bai Guangyao to have horses, but those who wanted to put Bai Yunge to death were not necessarily.

The village chief responded, "Maybe it's really Mrs. Wu's auditory hallucinations, but there must have been movement at the entrance of the village last night, and it is estimated that Qin Jinbao and Bai Guangyao ran away overnight after setting fires." ”

Qin Dahai replied in a deep voice, "I have done everything to kill people and set fires, but I can't let them run away like this, let's report to the official." ”

The village chief nodded and replied, "I think so too, Zijin's family almost died in the fire, you can't just let them go, and Zijin's old house can't be burned in vain, Zijin is not the godfather's fault, these two people dare to do such a thing, Bai Jincai and Qin Si are inseparable, let them pay for it." ”

At this time, Bai Yunge didn't know when he came behind Qin Zijin again, and everyone had long been accustomed to Bai Yunge following Qin Zijin all the time like a tail, and they didn't notice anything abnormal.

But Qin Zijin clearly heard Bai Yunge whispering to her, "You can't report to the official." ”

Qin Zijin frowned, his brain was running fast, and after thinking about it for a long time, he finally found an excuse and said, "Village chief, grandpa, this matter can't be reported to the official." ”

The village chief and Qin Dahai both looked at Qin Zijin in surprise, "Why?" ”

Qin Zijin responded, "Have you forgotten that Qin Jinbao and Bai Guangyao are both from our Hongtu Village, and no matter what, Qin Jinbao and our Qin family are inseparable, and it is probably a little inappropriate to report to the official rashly." ”

Qin Dahai frowned, disagreeing with Ying Dao, "What's wrong, what if it's the Qin family, it's the Qin family who can casually kill people and set fires?" It is still harming his own family, and this matter must not be tolerated. ”

Qin Zijin had a little headache and continued to speak, "Grandpa, this matter will have a bad impact on our village, I still want to do some other business next year to make our Hongtu Village rich, but if this matter spreads, I am worried that no one will dare to do business with the people in our village." ”

The village chief's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his heart was a little moved, so he didn't speak anymore, only Qin Dahai was still insisting, "Then you mean to let them go for nothing?" No way. ”

Qin Zijin responded, "Of course we can't let them go, but we can't report this matter to the officials to make a big fuss, we can find it ourselves, find the people back, and hand them over to the clan or village chief to deal with, and there is no need to alarm the government at all." ”

Qin Dahai frowned, "Since they all ran out of Hongtu Village, where is there so easy to find back." ”

Qin Zijin responded, "Don't you know how many catties and taels those two have?" Seeing that winter is coming, with the ability of these two people, can they live outside? Maybe there will be a few days of cats, and if you can't go on, you will come back secretly, we don't have to look for it, pay more attention to the movements of the two families, and just wait for the rabbit. ”

The village chief agreed, "What Zijin said makes sense, I agree, Brother Dahai, what do you think?" ”

Qin Dahai finally compromised and answered, "Okay, let them stay outside for a few more days." ”

The village chief breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to look at Qin Zijin, and asked with a kind face, "Zijin, what are you going to do with that courtyard?" But it still needs to be repaired, and if I plan to rebuild it, I will gather all the people in the village to come and help and try to build it for you before the snow falls. ”

Qin Zijin shook his head, "Forget it, anyway, the yard is dilapidated and leaking everywhere, if it burns, let's burn it, let's make do with it on the grandfather's side for the time being this year, and wait for the new house to be repaired next year." ”

Qin Dahai nodded in agreement, "It is indeed not safe for a few of you orphans and widows to live over there, so let's squeeze here for the time being, there are many people here, so we can take care of it." ”

After sending the village chief away, Qin Zijin saw Xiaobao squatting under the tree in the yard to wipe his tears.

Qin Zijin reached out and hugged Xiaobao up, and asked while wiping his tears for him, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiaobao sobbed and responded, "The third uncle said that the puppy is gone." ”

Qin Zijin sighed and comforted, "Don't be sad, sister, can you find you another puppy?" ”

Xiaobao replied sadly, "I like the original puppy. ”

Finally coaxed Xiaobao, Qin Zijin took Bai Yunge into the house, and when there were no outsiders, Qin Zijin asked, "Why didn't you let the official report just now?" ”

Bai Yunge responded, "The government is not their opponent, but it will make things more complicated, don't worry, my people will handle this matter." ”

Qin Zijin was not very reassured, "Are you sure?" If your people have the ability, can we be hit by the ** and almost burned to death? ”

Bai Yunge replied embarrassedly, "Don't worry, even without them, I can protect you." ”

Thinking that they were okay last night, and it was indeed Bai Yunge's credit, Qin Zijin didn't hit Bai Yunge anymore and changed the topic, "I'm wondering, if we live in Grandpa's house, will it bring danger to them?" Why don't we move out? ”

Bai Yunge fell silent, those people went crazy and did something, he really didn't dare to give Qin Zijin a ticket for this.

Qin Zijin sighed, "I'll go out and inquire to see if there is any vacant yard in the village to rent to us temporarily." ”

Bai Yunge replied, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

After speaking, he took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to Qin Zijin, "You take these silvers, if you need anything, just spend it." ”
