Chapter 224: The Fire

Lao Lai called her here, but she didn't show up for a long time, which made Xia Wanqing's heart a little dissatisfied.

Looking at the tea on the table that had been changed several times, as well as the food that had no trace of heat, Xia Wanqing's face showed a wry smile, and she rubbed the corners of her forehead helplessly.

Her child is not yet a full moon, and she is also in the period of confinement, other people's pregnant women are at home with their children during confinement, she is good, she actually sat here for a long time.

Shaking his head, he stood up and was about to walk towards the door, but he stopped and there was a knock outside the door, accompanied by a hurried call: "Mrs. Xia, it's not good, the drunken Tianxiang is gone." ”

When the words fell, Xia Wanqing was stunned for a moment, and after reacting, she hurriedly opened the door, and a gust of wind seemed to rush out, and the mood along the way was a little worried and a little irritable.

How could Drunken Heavenly Fragrance suddenly catch fire? Isn't someone doing something behind the scenes?

Thinking so, when he walked out of the inn, he could see at a glance that his drunken incense had a sky-high fire, and there was a faint noise of the people.

Looking at this fire, Xia Wanqing frowned, gritted her teeth and hurried towards Zui Tianxiang, feeling a little anxious.

I don't know if Ji Baishan came out with the child, there are still so many people there.

Because of her eagerness, Xia Wanqing ran to the door of Drunken Tianxiang after a while, and saw a group of people surrounding the door, and many people were holding buckets back and forth to put out the fire, but buckets of water poured into the fire were just a drop in the bucket.

From a distance, she could feel the feeling of the heat wave hitting her face, which made her even more worried, such a big fire may not be easy to extinguish.

looked around anxiously for a week and didn't see Ji Baishan's figure, a little flustered in his heart, looking at the shopkeeper and Sun Xing directing the firefighting, Xia Wanqing hurriedly walked over and grabbed the shopkeeper: "Have you seen Baishan?" ”

The shopkeeper is now as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, hearing Xia Wanqing's words, he was slightly stunned, and then he said as if he remembered something: "When I first found out about the fire, the owner said that he went back to look for the child, and he hasn't ......come out yet."

As he spoke, his voice gradually became smaller, and he watched Xia Wanqing's every move with some concern, and he didn't know if Ji Baishan had come out now, if not, such a big fire, I was afraid that it would also be ......

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, Xia Wanqing looked at the drunken Tianxiang who had fallen into a sea of fire in front of her with some incredulity, couldn't it be that the two of them hadn't come out yet?

Thinking of it, Xia Wanqing's heart chuckled, and she gritted her teeth and was about to rush forward, but she was pulled by a person's shoulder.

When he turned around, he saw that the person who came was actually Ji Baishan, he was holding the child with one hand, pressing Xia Wanqing's shoulder with the other, with a touch of worry and anxiety on his face: "What are you going to do?" ”

Seeing that it was Ji Baishan, a big stone in Xia Wanqing's heart fell to the ground, no matter what, as long as Ji Baishan and the child escaped, as for this drunken fragrance......

Xia Wanqing frowned tightly, glanced at the house that had been burned down with a complicated expression, sighed slightly, turned around and hugged the child, looking at him still asleep, and felt some comfort in her heart.

raised his head to look at Ji Baishan, looked at him from beginning to end, and found that his face was just a little dark, and the corners of his clothes were also burned, and there were no other problems, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "Are you okay?" Where did you just go? If you don't come out again, I'm going to go in and find you. ”

Listening to Xia Wanqing's several questions thrown out at the same time, and then looking at the worry on her face, she also understood that she was frightened just now, so she gently pulled her behind her and said softly: "Don't worry, since I found out about the fire, I quickly went in and picked up the child, but just now I just came out from behind, so I was one step slower." ”

After finishing speaking, Ji Baishan paused for a moment, and continued with some regret: "It's just that we haven't rescued much of the things in the drunken heavenly incense. ”

Hearing this, Xia Wanqing chuckled lightly, and hugged him and the child helplessly, "Fool, as long as you are fine." ”

Having said that, there was an obvious look of worry on her face, this water incident may have put all her hard work for so many years in vain.

Thinking so, Xia Wanqing turned her head and saw that there were still many people around her who had joined the firefighting team, and the fire gradually decreased, and she couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart.

Let Ji Baishan hold the child and wait here, she walked over to organize the fire extinguishing with the shopkeeper, and with the joint efforts of a group of people, the fire was finally controlled.

Xia Wanqing looked at the teahouse that had burned and couldn't see the shape, smiled slightly bitterly, gathered her mind, turned her head, and squeezed out a smile on her face when she saw that the faces of the people who were fighting the fire had more or less black marks.

He arched his hand at the people present and said, "I, Xia Wanqing, thank you for your help here today, and I will naturally remember this kindness." ”

Hearing this, the crowd spoke one after another.

"Boss Xia doesn't have to be polite, I'm just waiting for a little effort."

"Yes, Boss Xia, we all know that you are kind-hearted, and we volunteered to help this time."

"Boss Xia, you don't have to be polite, my son's cold is still cured thanks to you."

……

Listening to the enthusiastic words of the people, Xia Wanqing's heart couldn't help but warm, and she arched her hand and said, "No matter what, thank you very much." ”

And Ji Baishan, when he saw the ruins of the broken wall after the fire was extinguished, although he was prepared, he was still a little speechless by the scene in front of him.

Holding the baby in his arms, he couldn't help but look a little complicated, pursed his lips and still didn't say anything, but there was a touch of sadness in his eyes.

In any case, this is the career he and Xia Wanqing have been fighting for so long, but who would have thought that it would turn into ashes in such a short period of time?

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad when he was holding the child, could it be that everything had to start all over again? But most of the savings of the two of them for so long have also disappeared into this fire......

Xia Wanqing glanced at the crowd around her, and then looked at Ji Baishan, who looked lonely, and couldn't help sighing slightly, walked to Ji Baishan's side and gently took his hand, looking at the ruins in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

The two of them were standing here, and the people on the side were also looking at the two of them with some concern, to be honest, they were reluctant to be drunk with this incense, but such a fire burned everything.

In this group of gloomy people, there was a pair of eyes looking at the scene in front of them with a little joy.

Ji Mu was standing in the crowd at this time, with a touch of happiness on her face, and her bright eyes looked at Xia Wanqing and Ji Baishan standing there silently, and her heart was also happy.

As soon as she heard that Xia Wanqing's teahouse was on fire, she hurriedly ran over to take a look. When she saw that although the fire was under control, but the teahouse was abandoned, she was so happy that she almost set off firecrackers to celebrate.

She has long seen that Xia Wanqing is not pleasing to the eye, as her mother-in-law, but she is playing in front of her all day long, and she is reluctant to give her even some silver, now it's okay, she has been retributed, right?

Thinking of this, Ji Mu almost couldn't help laughing, she didn't look worried about the two of them at all, anyway, Xia Wanqing's teahouse didn't give her a penny, since this was the case, it might as well be gone.

The people around did not leave after extinguishing the fire, but still stood there, looking at Xia Wanqing and Ji Baishan's eyes with some worry.

They all have some sympathy for Xia Wanqing's experience, anyway, since the opening of Zui Tianxiang, they have also received a lot of benefits, and now that they are gone, they are also a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

"Otherwise, let's raise money to help Boss Xia rebuild a drunken fragrance."

After a moment of silence among the people present, some of them were the first to speak.

As soon as these words came out, they caused a violent reaction from the crowd.

"I agree."

"I do, too,"

"I agree."

……

Listening to the enthusiastic response of the crowd, Xia Wanqing couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, looking at the people in front of her who were full of sincerity, she glanced back at Ji Baishan, who was also moved in her eyes, and then turned her head and said: "I, Xia Wanqing, thank you all the old folks, when Zui Tianxiang reopens, I will invite everyone to eat, and the whole audience will be free for three days!" ”

As soon as Xia Wanqing's words came out, the people present couldn't help but smile, and looked at Xia Wanqing with a smile one by one.

Ji Baishan stood aside, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, the kind of depression just now was also diluted a lot under the enthusiasm of the people, and walked to Xia Wanqing's side with a chuckle, and the clear voice sounded slowly: "I, Ji Baishan, will not forget your support and help to our drunken Tianxiang, if it is useful in the future, just open your mouth, as long as I Ji Baishan does it, it is incumbent." ”

"You're polite, we've also received a lot of kindness from Drunken Tianxiang for so long."

"Yes, yes, you're welcome, please drink and wake up when the time comes."

……

The atmosphere that was still a little dull also became relaxed in the jokes of several people, and Xia Wanqing slightly hooked the corners of her lips: "Definitely." ”

After everyone left, Xia Wanqing arranged a few more shopkeepers before returning to his house with Ji Baishan, the house had already been completed, but he had been busy for the past few days, so he didn't go to live, and now that the drunken incense was burned, he could only live here.

On the other side, when everyone was busy fighting the fire, Boss Lai walked out of his teahouse and walked to Zuitianxiang without hurrying.
