Chapter 225: A fire broke out in the middle of the night

Passing through the back door was a small cubicle, which was separated by a screen, and Lu Ruoling sat on the toilet behind the screen. The current Lu Ruoling cursed Lu Xiyi in her heart, and her eyes were in tears, her image of a jade girl was ruined by Lu Xiyi this time!

"Mom, you have to avenge me!" Lu Ruoling's voice was crying.

Mrs. Lu loves her daughter very much, and when she heard Lu Ruoling seem to be crying, her heart was broken: "Tell Mom, who bullied you!" ”

Lu Ruoling gritted her teeth: "It's that Lu Xiyi!" ”

As soon as she heard the name, Mrs. Lu rubbed her whole body and became on fire: "What's wrong with her?" ”

Although the matter was very embarrassing, fortunately in front of her mother, Lu Ruoling dared to say to Mrs. Lu: "She deliberately drugged the wine to make me tummy." ”

"What!" Mrs. Lu was puffed up, walking in the room in a group, her footsteps were sonorous, as if she was going to stomp Lu Xiyi flat: "She dared to attack you, obviously she never wanted to enter the door of the Lu family!" Ling'er, don't be sad, your mother will definitely help you avenge this hatred! ”

Lu Ruoling said: "It's best to kill her!" ”

Mrs. Lu instructed the girl to go to the pharmacy and grab some antidiarrheal medicine, decoction it, and let Lu Ruoling drink it. I had a stomach trouble for a long time, and in the evening, it was better. At this time, Lu Ruoling was seriously dehydrated, and the whole person lost weight, lying on the bed and wheezing. With his eyes open, he asked Mrs. Lu in a weak voice, "Mother, what can you do to deal with Lu Xiyi?" ”

Mrs. Lu had already thought about it all. Now Lu Xiyi is a royal winemaker given by the emperor, but she can't do anything with the wine, if it is found out that she has done anything in the wine, she, Lu Ruoling and even Lu Mingde will be finished. So to be on the safe side, it's better to start somewhere else.

"Ling'er, mother already has a plan to make Lu Xiyi's bones gone!"

Mrs. Lu's words seemed to be a dose of fierce medicine, and Lu Ruoling almost jumped up from the bed: "What plan?" ”

Mrs. Lu then whispered a few words in Lu Ruoling's ear, and a smile finally appeared on Lu Ruoling's pale face.

At night, there is always the shouting of the watchman street by street.

"It's dry, watch out for the candles!"

The clear voice reaches thousands of households.

It was another busy day, Lu Xiyi was tired and sat on the chair like everyone else, and he could fall asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

Liu Ji asked a helper to beat him on the back: "Xiao Lu, if we don't recruit workers again, just a few of us, the business is so good, one day we can be tired to death!" ”

"Shopkeeper Lu, Liu Ji is right, we should find one or two people to help." Although Li Xiao has been walking the rivers and lakes for a long time, he can't bear this amount of labor.

Lu Xiyi didn't feel hard to make wine in the workshop, but since Liu Ji and Li Xiao said it, let's recruit: "Tomorrow, Brother Liu will write a post and post it in a place with a lot of people to recruit two juniors who run the hall." ”

"Okay, I'll write when I get back to my room." Liu Ji stood up and walked to the back.

Li Xiao didn't forget to tease him: "Liu Ji, aren't you going to Fireworks Alley tonight?" ”

Liu Ji turned his face half sideways, looked at Li Xiao, and didn't say a word.

Lu Xiyi was also tired and yawned: "Li Xiao, there is still a fire in the furnace, you will douse it with water in a while." I went back to my room and rested. ”

Li Xiao nodded, and when Lu Xiyi returned to the room, he carried a bucket of water, came to the workshop, poured the water into the furnace, and with a snort, all the charcoal fires were extinguished.

"I'm going to sleep too, I'm sleepy!" Li Xiao yawned, stretched, and went back to the room to rest.

Several helpers also lowered the door panels, cleaned up the tables and chairs, and went back to rest.

About three o'clock, the east wind suddenly rushed and blew the roof tiles to make a sound. In the haze, Lu Xiyi heard someone shouting "Help", his heart fluttered, and he jumped up hurriedly.

"On fire? Where is the fire? She got dressed, opened the door, and heard a gong in the street: "Knock knock! Rescue! ”

The shouts are endless.

Liu Ji, Li Xiao and others also got up.

"What's going on?"

"Hopefully not our neighbors."

Walking to the street outside with Lu Xiyi, I saw a miscellaneous fire blowing on the shop next door, taking advantage of the wind, the fire became bigger and bigger, and it spread to Xiaoyao Wine.

"Oh my God, put out the fire!" Lu Xiyi panicked, walked into the house and brought out a bucket of water, and Liu Ji and Li Xiao also carried water out. The people of the city defense department also came, put the ladder on the fence, and the people below sent buckets of water up.

But the fire was so big that it was a drop in the bucket, and it didn't work at all to be artificially doused with water. Lu Xiyi saw that he had just run a winery and was drowned in the flames.

Before the winery collapsed, Lu Xiyi rescued some important things. For example, the gold medal given by the emperor.

Lu Xiyi didn't have time to be sad at all, if he didn't find a way to put out the fire, the entire street of houses would be burned.

"But what can I do?" Someone was sad talking to himself.

Someone was discouraged and said, "What else! There is no other way but to watch the fire engulf the house. ”

"There are no casualties, which is already a blessing!" This is a prime location, and it costs a lot of silver just for the decoration of the shop. It wasn't the house that burned down, it was the silver!

Li Xiao asked Liu Ji: "Do you have a way?" ”

Liu Ji shrugged his shoulders and looked helpless: "There is no way for the people in the City Defense Division, what can I do as a grass citizen!" It seems that God told the fire to stop, and the fire stopped! ”

"I have a way!" Everyone's eyes followed the sound, and the one who said that there was a way was the shopkeeper Lu of Xiaoyao Winery.

"Xiao Lu, what can you do?"

"Shopkeeper Lu, say it quickly!"

"If you can stop the fire, the merchants of our whole street will give you a hundred taels of silver each!"

Lu Xiyi took a step and left: "Everyone come with me!" ”

Lu Xiyi walked along the street and observed, and saw a relatively old shop, his eyes flashed: "Let's do it together and demolish this shop!" ”

"What? Demolition of shops? What is this for? Everyone was puzzled, especially the owner of the shop, who shouted angrily.

"Shopkeeper Lu, how do you do this lack of morality! I spent 2,000 taels of silver to decorate this shop, and although it is old, it does not hinder its operation. If you want to demolish my shop, you can't do it! ”

Lu Xiyi said: "Now the fire is getting more and more fierce, and it has been spreading to the west, if the fire is not stopped in time, it will not only be this street that will be burned at that time, but one-third of the houses in the capital, and it is estimated that even the palace will be burned." ”

"Xiao Lu, what do you think?" Liu Ji asked.

"We tear down this house, so that the fire is cut off over there, and when the house is burned down on that side, the fire stops. This is the method of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle! ”

As soon as Lu Xiyi said it, everyone understood. But the owner of the shop was unwilling in any case: "You can't demolish my shop!" Maybe the fire will stop in a moment. Shopkeeper Lu, you don't want to do anything else, but you come up with this kind of damage trick! You're jealous that I make more money than you, aren't you? ”

Lu Xiyi was very anxious, if he continued to stalemate, the fire would burn.

Bang! The shopkeeper was hit on the neck and fainted on the ground. It was Li Xiao who beat him.
