Chapter 67: Burning is bankrupt

The corners of Ding Xiaolian's lips lifted a touch of pride, gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Yuyu deserves to be burned in the fire, hum!"

Hongluan said, "Miss, I'll go and see the situation."

"What are you going to do?" Ding Xiaolian grabbed her, and her eyes rolled and said, "Send Mrs. Zhou in the stove room." "Mrs. Zhou hasn't shown her face in the village yet, and no one will know her.

Yingxueju in the middle of the night was far away, and it was too abnormal for Hongluan to run over to see the excitement, so it was better to call Mrs. Zhou, who no one knew, to go.

Hongluan also understood, "I'll call Mrs. Zhou." ”

Soon, Mrs. Zhou walked out of Yingxue Ju from the corner gate with a lantern.

Along the way, many villagers were awakened and went to the big locust tree, only to see the fire in the north.

"Shen Yuyu's house is on fire?" Someone asked suspiciously.

"It looks like, but how can it burn so big? Don't you know how to save?"

"Who knows? With such a strong wind tonight, the fire should be very fast, I don't know if people ran out. ”

"A woman, a lame, and a six-year-old child are estimated to be hanging."

While they were discussing, Aunt Zhou and her man Shen Tailin came with several sons carrying buckets and roaring.

Aunt Zhou shouted while running: "Are you still watching the excitement here?" Hurry up and put out the fire, so that you don't have to worry about the fire spreading to your house?" After speaking, he hurriedly ran to Shen Yuyu's house.

After listening to Aunt Zhou's words, some people also became worried and hurried home to carry buckets.

Aunt Zhou and Uncle Shen took Brother Shen Xingwang and ran not far to Shen Yuyu's house when they saw a figure flashing in front of them.

"Yu Yu, Ah Xun? Ah Feng, are you all alright?" Aunt Zhou shouted anxiously and hurriedly ran over there.

When I got closer, it was Ji Xun, to be precise, Ji Xun was escorting a man, followed by Shen Yuyu and Ji Feng.

"Don't worry, Auntie, we're fine." Shen Yuyu's face was blackened in order to fight the fire.

Aunt Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to hug her and Ji Feng, her face full of distress: "Frightened, right?" What the hell is going on?" I also guessed a few points in my heart, and my eyes fell on Shen Zuorong.

Shen Yuyu wiped a handful of tears: "It's my uncle, who set fire to us and wanted to burn us to death, if it weren't for Ah Xun's vigilance, I'm afraid we would...

Shen Zuorong hurriedly defended: "I, I didn't think of burning you to death, don't talk nonsense, eldest niece." Uncle Shen was furious when he heard this, and stepped forward and kicked Shen Zuorong a few times.

"Shen Zuorong? Are you still human? The third watch set fire in the middle of the night and didn't have the intention of killing? Which letter?"

Several sons of Aunt Zhou also condemned one after another, scolding Shen Zuorong for being inferior to a beast, and even wanted to put his niece to death with such a ruthless hand.

Shen Zuorong was also desperate, he clearly just set fire to it and didn't want to kill someone, but now the murderous hat is a little bigger.

Of course, the most infuriating thing is that Ji Xun seems to have been prepared, and before he escaped far, Ji Xun chased him and threw him to the ground. Ji Xun had been trained in the army, and he was tall, and Shen Zuorong couldn't break free even if he tried his best, so he was arrested by them.

"Eldest niece, just let your uncle go, uncle knows it's wrong." Arson is a felony, and he was convicted of trying to kill someone, Shen Zuorong was also very scared in his heart, and kept begging for mercy, "The house hasn't been burned down much, I'll take ten taels of silver out to help you repair it, can you restore it to its original state?" Let me go. As he spoke, he sat down on the ground and refused to leave.

This matter is so big that he is bound to go to prison, although he feels sorry for money, but it is better to be private than to go to prison!

Hearing that the house hadn't burned down much, Aunt Zhou, Uncle Shen and others breathed a sigh of relief, and their belongings were saved. Aunt Zhou patted her chest with palpitations, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, the property is all right, it's okay"

Good? What a hair! She's bankrupt!~ Boo! Shen Yuyu pouted aggrievedly.

I always felt that this evil uncle was instructed to do this, and deliberately set fire to her east wing, and the fire oil was all poured on the east corner, and the box where she put the silver ticket happened to be in that corner.

She and Ji Xun were still playing and kissing in the quilt at the time, and when they heard the movement, they hurriedly got up lightly and stood guard at the door.

I guessed in my heart that it was either Mrs. Wang or the two evil uncles, Shen Yuyan knew what kind of virtue they had, if they didn't come to set fire today, they would come tomorrow, so they would just let him burn it, and instead of arresting him in prison and eating prison food for a few days, he would teach them a good lesson.

The two of them made up their minds and guarded quietly, and they rushed out of the house with the firelight, Ji Xun went to arrest Shen Zuorong, and she put out the fire, and when she put out the fire, she found that the money box in the corner turned into black charcoal, except for a few taels of broken silver tickets and everything, all of them turned into ashes, and her heart hurt so much that she stomped her feet!

"Is the house alright? How can you see such a big fire?" Shen Xingwang asked.

Shen Yuyu: "Oh, it was when I was fighting the fire that ignited more than a dozen haystacks piled up in the rice field next to me."

"It turned out that the haystack was ignited, no wonder the fire was soaring." Many villagers also came to put out the fire with buckets, and they were relieved to hear this.

And Mrs. Zhou, who was mixed with the firefighting crowd, saw that the news was almost found out and returned to Yingxueju.

"How?" Ding Xiaolian sat in the courtyard wrapped in a thick fur collar cloak and waited, and Mrs. Zhou stood up expectantly as soon as she came in.

"Miss, Shen Yu's house was not burned." Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to report, "The arson was set on fire by his uncle, whose name is Shen Zuorong, and he was arrested by Ji Xun."

Ding Xiaolian sat down weakly, her face extremely ugly.

This thing was done secretly from the people, and it was not good to get angry in front of them and enter the house disappointed.

After sending all the maidservants in the house out, Shen Yuyu sat on the bed with a gloomy face: "This Shen Zuorong is really a useless waste!"

Hongluan desperately hooked her head, waiting to be beaten by the young lady.

Ding Xiaolian didn't do anything to her, and said dejectedly: "Let's go back to Lingzhou City, in case Shen Zuorong can't bear to recruit the merchant, then it's over."

Hongluan said unwillingly: "But the merchant doesn't know that we instructed it."

"I'm afraid of the Night King's suspicion." Ding Xiaolian trembled when she spoke, that was the Night King, and she couldn't bear his death gaze.

Thinking of this, Ding Xiaolian hurriedly stood up, "Hurry up and pack your things and go back to Lingzhou City early tomorrow morning." "Don't let the Night King have a chance to interrogate her, or she won't confess if she's scared.

"Yes, miss." Hongluan didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly went to pack up her things.

And here, Shen Zuorong was dragged to the sunning flat with his hands tied behind his back, and the village chief and patriarch were all alarmed, and soon the sunning field was full of people.

Mrs. Wang's whole family rushed over when they got the news, and when they saw Shen Zuorong trapped on the ground, Shen Yunlai secretly wiped a handful of sweat, and secretly glad that God was really good to him, and didn't let him draw the long stick, otherwise he would be tied up here.
