Shi Jingtao nodded and went in.

Rong Qiaoyan helped Aunt Shuang to the courtyard and waited.

After a while, the smell of alcohol spread, and then the place of the bed in the main room was the first to catch fire.

Slowly, the fire seemed to spread, and it quickly spread from the position of the bed to the surrounding area.

Shi Jingtao came out, and Rong Qiaoyan and Aunt Shuang followed him quickly towards the back wall.

When he arrived at the big tree, Shi Jingtao said that he was offended, and then he carried Aunt Shuang on his back, and with the help of the big tree, he quickly jumped onto the wall, and then jumped down. Then, Rong Qiaoyan was also taken out of the wall by Shi Jingtao.

"The carriage was hidden in the woods next to the official road at the foot of the mountain. Let's go. ”

Shi Jingtao took the package from Rong Qiaoyan and Aunt Shuang, and said in a low voice.

Rong Qiaoyan nodded, and helped Aunt Shuang to walk down the mountain one foot deeper.

In the Rongfu Nunnery, the fire slowly spread, and finally the entire main house was on fire.

Because everyone was really tired, they slept very deeply, and no one even noticed that there was a fire on the mountain.

It wasn't until later that the sky became brighter, and in the village next to Zhuangzi, there were people who got up at night, and they found that there was that red light on the mountain, and they thought it was sunrise.

However, after a few closer looks, he realized that something was wrong, and then called his family to come and see.

After the family confirmed that the fire broke out on the mountain, they ran to the village and struck a big gong, which woke up the whole village.

When those people came to the Rong family's Zhuangzi with wooden barrels and tubs and knocked on the door, the doorkeeper knew what had happened.

No way, this summer is hot, they do work during the day, and gamble at night while it is cool.

This one slept late, so naturally he slept deeply.

At this moment, I found that the house was on fire, so I naturally ran up quickly.

When I got to the mountain, I knocked on the door for a long time. As a result, no one opened the door for a long time. Someone just knocked the door open.

After checking, I found that Mrs. He was drunk and snoring all the time.

Someone took the water from the pot next to him and splashed it directly on He Pozi's face.

was stirred by this cold water, and He Pozi hit a spirit and woke up.

When she saw so many people, she was stunned.

"You, you ... This is to be done ... Do what? But, yes... The family nunnery of Rong Mansion. The capital is on the Shoufu Mansion. He Pozi said intermittently, this time the wine was completely frightened awake.

"Hey, look back."

The person who started the first smell of wine on He Pozi's body, and did not say anything more to her, but asked loudly, "Where is this well?" ”

"There's one in the front yard and one near the corner gate in the backyard." He Pozi was stunned when asked, but it was an intuitive answer.

After answering the question, she looked up and was startled: "My god shouted, why did he go out of the water?" ”

As she spoke, she scrambled to get up and walk to the backyard.

"It's miserable. How did this catch fire? This nunnery burned down, and I'm miserable. ”

He Pozi shouted and wiped her face, trying to make herself more sober.

No one paid any attention to her, but they all took the basin and the bucket and went to the well to draw water, and then ran to the place where the fire was burning.

When they reached the gate of the courtyard, everyone kicked open the courtyard door, and they were frightened and took a step back.

I don't know how long this fire has been burning, but not only the main room is burning, but even the side room next to it is on fire.

The crowd relented and continued to put out the fire.

It's a pity that this well is too far away from this yard, and it is extremely inconvenient to fetch water to extinguish the fire.

And because there seemed to be a pyre in this courtyard, the fire was getting bigger and bigger.

Mrs. He, who was one step slower than everyone to arrive, suddenly collapsed to the ground when she saw that this was the courtyard where Rong Qiaoyan's mother and daughter lived.

It's over, it's over, this fire is burning like this, can't it burn people?

The fire at the Rongjia's nunnery burned for a long time.

By the time it is completely extinguished, it will be almost three poles in the day.

The people whose faces were blackened by the smoke and fire all showed pitiful expressions when they heard He Pozi crying that there were two people inside.

It's just this fire, it's no wonder if it can't be burned.

When the fire had been completely extinguished, the bold young man went in and made an inquiry.

Sure enough, two charred charcoal-like bones were found on the bed.

Suddenly, the frightened young man ran out crying wolf.

There was a respected old man, who asked him to go to the Zhuangzi to find a white cloth, cover it, carry it out, and put it in the courtyard.

"Don't cry either. This has happened, and I don't want to go back to the Lord's house soon. ”

The soft-hearted woman looked at the poor bones and said sadly to the weeping Mrs. He.

He Pozi seemed to react at this time, and responded again and again.

The candidate for this report is naturally Mrs. He.

She was taking care of the family, but she took care of people to death, so she had to explain the situation in detail.

So, Mrs. He didn't even dare to change her clothes, so she hurriedly let the carriage on Zhuangzi go to the capital.

At this time, in the Shoufu Mansion, Miss Rong led by Rong Qiaopan went to the girls' school to take classes.

The eldest lady is taking the eldest grandmother and listening to the reply of the housekeepers.

The second lady, who had nothing to do, was in Hongping Courtyard, amusing Mrs. Tai under her knees, and accompanying Mrs. Tai to relieve her boredom.

When the eldest lady heard the people on the other side of the nunnery talking back, she couldn't help frowning and didn't want to see her.

She's thinking about it now, too.

This step-family candidate must choose one who is related to his own family.

Although the concubines of Rongfu are all related by blood, it is the bloodline of Rongfu, but it has nothing to do with her Yi family.

Therefore, the eldest lady has already taken a fancy to one of her nieces.

Now that the eldest lady has a suitable candidate, she doesn't care much about Rong Qiaoyan's situation.

"The old lady asked her to clean up at home, what do you need to send someone to the house?" The eldest lady asked casually.

The little maid who came to deliver the message was full of horror, "The woman said that Miss Six and Aunt Shuang were burned to death by fire last night. ”

"What?"

Hearing this, the eldest lady's hand shook, Huo Ran stood up, and the tea cup on the table was brushed to the ground by her sleeve.

The crackling sound made the little girl kneeling on the ground tremble.

"How could this happen?" The eldest lady asked in surprise.

The little maid is just a messenger, so naturally she doesn't know the details.

The eldest lady looked at the little maid's appearance that she couldn't say a word with three sticks, frowned and said, "Let that woman come in and speak carefully." You go to Mrs. Tai and report it. Let's see if I want to go to the yamen to inform the old lady and the eldest master. ”

The eldest lady hurriedly arranged it.

"Yes."

When the maids in the hall heard the words of the eldest lady, some went to the door, and some went to Hongping Courtyard. There are even more whispers in private.

Therefore, after a while, the news that Miss Six and Aunt Shuang were burned to death in the family nunnery spread throughout the backyard.

As the old saying goes, death is like a lamp going out, like a lamp running out of oil.

This person is dead, no matter whether he was a good person or a bad person in his life, and whether he has done good or bad things, it is all gone.

Miss Six didn't do anything bad before she was alive, so naturally there were still some maids who pitied her.

For a while, some maids cried for her.

Bai Mei, who was now waiting for her match at home early, was first surprised and then stunned when she heard the news that Miss Six had died.

As the sixth lady's former first-class maid, Bai Mei really hasn't suffered any hardships, and she has been rewarded additionally.

Although Miss Six is not favored by herself, she has not received many rewards, but she is also a good master in the end.

For a while, Bai Mei also cried.
