Yue Shi was frightened by An Guogong's roar and the key smashed into his face, and he knelt on the ground as soon as his knees weakened.

"Master, I, I'm ......"

An Guogong didn't listen to her explanation, and directly ordered the little girl.

"Quick, find a way to break the lock!"

In order to prevent theft, the warehouse was deliberately not made of windows, and there was only one door in and out. And An Guogong was afraid that someone would worry about his treasures, so the chains tied to the door were wrapped several times.

Right now, without the key, it's really difficult to get in by breaking the door lock.

Seeing this scene, the guests shook their heads.

"I can't open the door after burning like this, I'm afraid that the things inside won't be saved."

"It's a pity, the treasury is full of valuables from the house. After this catastrophe, the foundation of the Anguo Mansion may be less than 30%. ”

"It's no wonder that the steward of the treasury is not careful, and such an important key can be lost. If it happened to my house, it would not be too much to drag it out and kill it. ”

When An Guogong heard these discussions, his eyes were black and fainted. Just when he was so anxious that his head was full of smoke, Mrs. Jiang suddenly spoke.

"I have a way."

An Guogong turned his head when he heard the news, and his eyes swept over An Yueli and many slaves. He only felt that the voice just now was gentle and familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"Who said there was a way?"

Madame Jiang slowly took a step forward, "I said it." ”

Suddenly facing Mrs. Jiang's charming face, An Guogong was stunned for a moment.

"You!?"

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but he actually feels that Mrs. Jiang looks completely different from her sluggish appearance in the past.

But in the past three years of hysteria, every time the doctor consults with him, he concludes that the degree of stupidity is more serious, and he doesn't believe that Mrs. Jiang can recover one day.

An Guogong staggered his eyes in disbelief, and told An Yueli with disgust and impatience.

"Take your mother down, don't you see I'm busy, and I'm still here to make trouble!"

However, this time, without An Yueli refuting, Mrs. Jiang walked straight to the other party. She bowed slightly as she did three years ago, and her gestures showed her dignified atmosphere.

"There is a spare key in the storehouse, which is hidden in the mouth of the beast carved in wood above the eaves of the western room. If you don't believe it, you can send someone to check it. ”

An Guogong was stunned again, and then he noticed the smart light shining in Mrs. Jiang's eyes, which was not at all a look that a stupid person could have.

"You, you, you ......"

"Thanks to the old man, I have been cured."

"What!?"

An Guogong even suspected that his ears were broken, otherwise how could he have heard such outrageous news.

But even if the ears are broken, the eyes don't deceive.

I saw Madame Jiang deftly bypass him and give orders directly to the slave.

"Someone, go get a ladder."

The slaves were either dumbfounded, or they simply did not obey orders because of their submission to the Yue clan.

At this time, I saw a slightly older slave come out and quickly take the bamboo ladder with his hands and feet.

"Madam, which beast is it?"

There were a total of five Rui beasts on the treasury of the Guogong Mansion, and Mrs. Jiang approached with the smoke and carefully distinguished them for a while before speaking.

"From left to right, the third owl kisses his mouth."

The old slave stretched out his hand with difficulty, and twenty or thirty slaves, along with the guests invited from the various provinces, stretched their necks together, or waited for the result with suspicion or anticipation.

"There it is!"

I only heard the old slave exclaim, and a small oiled paper bag rolled down the eaves.

"Look, there's really something!"

"It's a god!"

Even An Guogong couldn't help but show a look of surprise, and rushed up in three or two steps.

"This, this ......"

Madame Jiang peeled back the dusty paper bag layer by layer, revealing the well-preserved key inside.

"This is what my mother hid on the eaves of the house when my mother and father were fighting, and she only told me one person. I didn't expect it to come in handy after many years. ”

As she spoke, she inserted the key into the cylinder and opened the door to the storeroom with a single twist.

The thick smoke came to her face, An Yueli stepped forward in time and covered Mrs. Jiang's mouth and nose with a handkerchief, while An Guogong, who was left behind, was choked with tears.

"Ahem, ahem...... Still stunned what to do, quick, hurry up and put out the fire! ”

The servants rushed in with buckets of water in the thick of smoke, and soon extinguished the fire.

What is surprising is that such a large smoke, in fact, is only a small room stacked with cotton silk.

The cloth that had passed the season was damp, and after burning for a long time, it was only a large smoke and a small fire, and did not cause serious damage.

When An Guogong heard this, he immediately bowed with his hands to the sky.

"Thank you, Bodhisattva! Thank you Bodhisattva! ”

"Instead of thanking the Bodhisattva, the father should thank the mother. If it weren't for her today, I don't know how much money I would have lost. ”

Hearing this, An Guogong looked at Mrs. Jiang again.

I don't know if it's an illusion, although Jiang Qinglan, who has been in three years, still looks gentle and dignified, but there is a faint bit of majesty on her body that she didn't have before.

An Guogong only looked at her for a few seconds, and then lowered his eyes weakly.

"When did your illness get better?"

Mrs. Jiang looked directly at the man in front of her, and his indifference and ruthlessness to herself and An Yueli in the past three years kept coming to her mind, as well as acquiescing to the various scenes of Yue's mother and daughter trying to temper her.

She took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the nausea that came well.

"Recently, I wanted to tell my master after recuperating my body, but I didn't expect my sister to poke such a big basket today."

Hearing this, Yue, who was kneeling on the ground, shook violently.

"Anger severance, sir!"

Among the lively guests, Mrs. Sun took the lead in sighing.

"Mrs. Jiang's recovery time is really timely, if it weren't for Mrs. Jiang's help today, this loss would be immeasurable."

The county lord of Chunxiao also echoed, "At the critical moment, you have to rely on the serious mastermother." She has long been unaccustomed to Yue's unworthy appearance, and she is sarcastic and merciless.

"Why don't you say that God has eyes, and all things have spirits. This Mrs. Jiang is well from her illness, not to mention that she is a person, and even the houses in the house know how to take the initiative to recognize the owner. ”

As soon as they took the lead, it immediately aroused heated discussions among everyone.

"Yes, as soon as Mrs. Jiang came, Mrs. Yue's key was useless. What does this mean? It shows that Mrs. Jiang is a serious lady who is rightfully named. ”

"I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes."

"It seems that God is warning you to return the stewardship of the house to Mrs. Jiang."

When Yue Shi heard this, the hairs on his body exploded. She didn't care about etiquette, and rushed directly to An Guogong and grabbed his sleeve.

"Master, today's fire is really strange. The doors and windows are closed, how did the fire start, someone must be making trouble! ”

She said as she deliberately glanced at An Yueli and Mrs. Jiang, and the implication could not be more obvious.

An Yueli snorted lightly.

Mrs. Yue's words are not unreasonable, the treasury manager lost the key on the front foot, and the back foot of the warehouse caught fire. Someone has to take on this responsibility. ”

Mrs. Jiang also took the opportunity to sweep the items that had been counted, and her brows were furrowed.

"Cotton silk things should be stored in a copper box that is fireproof and insect-proof, but as I see today, these things are piled up in the warehouse at random, and they are not kept according to the rules of the house.

It seems that in the three years that Sister Yue has been in charge of the house for me, she has corrupted all the rules. ”
