"Girl, what's wrong with you?" The cuckoo sleeping on the big kang in front of the window rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up.

"Nothing, just a nightmare." Shi Jinxiu, who was scared out of sweat profusely, had palpitations.

The cuckoo got up and turned on the lamp, helped Shi Jinxiu bring hot water to wipe her body, and after changing into dry clothes, she was put to sleep again.

Before dawn, Shi Jinxiu, who was lying on his side, faintly heard the sound of knocking on the four watches.

But she had no intention of sleeping.

The scene of crying and grabbing the ground in the dream is so real, it is so real that it is like being in it.

But why did she have such a dream?

And where is the dream?

Shi Jinxiu couldn't help but think about it.

The dream was so noisy that everyone was running for their lives in a panic, except for the young children, who had been lost from their parents, sitting helplessly on the ground and crying......

It's just that those burning wooden houses, why do they feel a little familiar, like the miscellaneous houses she saw outside the Yongsheng Gate before.

Miscellaneous room? Fire? Outside the Yongsheng Gate?

Suddenly, Shi Jinxiu felt as if something had flashed through her mind.

She finally remembered why the scene she had seen outside the Yongsheng Gate the other day was different from the scene in her dream!

In her dream, there was a fire outside the Yongsheng Gate that burned for three days and three nights!

Those poor people living outside the Yongsheng Gate had nothing, and after a fire, they didn't even have their last place to live, so they had to become homeless people in the capital.

Later, the government stepped forward to raise funds from the wealthy families in the city and built simple straw huts outside the capital, which resettled these displaced people. The scorched earth outside the Yongsheng Gate was also rebuilt, and it slowly became a gathering place for Hu merchants, and later it had the appearance of Shi Jinxiu's dream.

Since the miscellaneous houses outside the Yongsheng Gate are still there, it means that the fire has not yet burned! That's why those surrounding houses are sold so cheaply, and no one cares about them!

A bold idea instantly popped up in Shi Jinxiu's heart.

If you take advantage of this time to buy those mansions, won't you make a lot of money in the future?

The more Shi Jinxiu thought about it, the more feasible she felt, and it just so happened that she had saved some money on hand.

Shi Jinxiu, who couldn't sleep, had completely insomnia this time, tossing and turning for most of the night, and didn't close her eyes slightly until it was almost dawn, but she was soon woken up by the sound of rustling in the yard.

Shi Jinxiu simply stopped sleeping, but got up, dressed, and washed.

"Why did the girl get up so early today?" Chen's mother, who started to be busy early in the morning, was working in the small kitchen, because she always had to get up very early to prepare breakfast for everyone in the courtyard.

Chen's mother is Yulan's mother, they fled into the capital back then, Jane saw that they were lonely and almost froze to death on the side of the road, so she asked them if they would like to enter the palace as servants. In this way, one of them became Jane's personal maid, and the other became the cook-in-law of Lixiangyuan.

"Because I can't sleep." Seeing that Chen's mother took a small dustpan and went to the back garden, Shi Jinxiu also followed.

The back garden of Lixiangyuan was originally a small garden, and in order to save daily expenses, Jane's pulled out all the flowers and plants in the small garden and planted melons, fruits and vegetables.

The vegetable field is not big, but it is well planned, the loofah and bitter gourd here have just been planted, and the sweet beans and peas over there have long been bustling, not to mention the shepherd's cabbage and lettuce that grow into clumps in the ground, all hanging with a thin morning dew, and the spirit is extraordinary.

"Mother Chen, let's scramble a few eggs in the morning!" Looking at the red buds emerging from the toon tree, Shi Jinxiu couldn't help but say while picking them.

"Good!" Chen's mother straightened up from the ground with a smile, "It just so happened that I picked up a few eggs this morning, and I will spread a toon egg cake for you to eat at that time!" ”

Two sparrows chirped and fluttered over their heads.

Shi Jinxiu looked up, and the warm morning light shone down from the ridge of the roof, making her squint subconsciously, and then she smelled the smell of firewood.

It's still this kind of fireworks day that makes people feel comfortable!

Shi Jinxiu sighed in her heart.

Chen's mother prepared green vegetable porridge in the morning, accompanied by a few plates of refreshing pickles and a plate of toon egg cakes, which made the family eat very happily.

Because Shi Nan also planned to take Xu Li to visit the teacher who was in the capital before, Shi Jinxiu made an appointment with them to go out.

But as soon as they came out of the side door of the Changxing Marquis's Mansion, they met Cai Xiang'er who came by car.

"Sister Xiu'er! Where are you going? Cai Xiang'er lifted the curtain and asked.

"Sister Xiang'er? What are you doing here? Shi Jinxiu had to let Shi Nan and Xu Li go first, and she stayed to talk to Cai Xiang'er.

"Didn't I send someone to deliver a post yesterday saying I came over today?" Seeing that Shi Jinxiu was going out, she curled her lips a little unhappily.

"Posts? What post? Shi Jinxiu is sure that from yesterday to today, he has never seen a single post, let alone Cai Xiang'er is coming to the door today.

The maid beside Cai Xiang'er stood up: "Miss Shi, it's true, yesterday it was the slave maid who personally sent the eldest lady's greeting to the gatehouse of the Changxing Marquis Mansion, and then the person on duty in the gatehouse said that he would help me transfer it to you, girl." ”

The greeting was sent to the concierge?

Shi Jinxiu turned to look at the porter behind him, and found that someone was probing his brain.

"Sister Xiang, you wait for me here, I probably know what's going on." Shi Jinxiu whispered to Cai Xiang'er, and then walked to the gatehouse.

There was a clanging sound in the gatehouse, and when Shi Jinxiu walked in, he saw a thin steward with his feet on the table, his eyes smacking melon seeds, and behind him stood two mothers-in-law with some siblings.

And the greeting post sent by Cai Xiang'er was clearly placed on the square table in the room.

"Yo, it's the fifth girl! What is the wind that has brought you to my little porter? After the steward saw Shi Jinxiu, although he said so, his expression was still arrogant.

Shi Jinxiu squinted slightly.

It's just a small porter, who dares to talk to himself like this, and if he wants to say that no one behind his back gives him instructions, he doesn't believe that he killed her.

"Why don't you send the greeting post of Miss Cai of the Zhengguo Mansion to Lixiangyuan?" Shi Jinxiu suppressed the anger in her heart and asked slowly.

"Oh, girl, you have wronged the villain, the villain sent someone to send it, but there is no one in the Lixiang Courtyard!" And the steward continued to quibble.

"Who did you go?" Shi Jinxiu's gaze swept over the two mothers-in-law who were a little trembling, "When did you go?" How do you know that there is no one in the hospital? ”

"Self-...... Naturally, I received the post and went! Probably...... Probably not yet! The steward obviously didn't expect Shi Jinxiu to break the casserole and ask to the end, so he began to talk nonsense.
