9 Chapter 9
Qin Wu's footsteps of fleeing from the desert made Xie Zhen smile, laughing happily and wantonly, and the inevitable light in his eyes was great.
Laugh, laugh fart!
Qin Wu was panicked by this laughter, and quickly changed the topic: "Where to go next?" Do you want to take the good wine you say? By the way, is there any liquor that is as white as water?", this thing is a good thing, not only can heat but also disinfect wounds, I don't think I can buy it outside, and if I miss it in this house, I will regret it.
For this reason, Qin Wu also forgot to be embarrassed and shamelessly asked, Xie Zhen, who caught up, naturally had nothing to say, thought about his plan, and then thought of the layout of the house, Xie Zhen answered.
"The wine cellar is under the rockery in the backyard, I'll send you over first, very few people go there, and no one will notice it today, Wu'er, you go and collect it first, I'll leave for a while."
"Leave? What are you going to do?"
"Hehe, what are you doing?", Xie Zhen smiled mysteriously, "Wu'er, you just wait and see." ”
The figures of the two quickly disappeared into the realm of the big kitchen, and the servants in the kitchen today were obviously less than half of the past, and the people on duty were obviously not in a state of state, and one by one they didn't notice what was happening in the kitchen until they ......
"Ah, no, no, fire, fire, come on, put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire, put out the fire......"
"It's terrible, it's terrible, come on, put out the fire......"
"God, why is it on fire, oops, come and put out the fire, put out the fire......"
Suddenly, the screams of firefighting pierced the tranquility of the Zhenguo Mansion, one after another, just like cold water into an oil pot, and the Zhenguo Mansion instantly exploded.
For a time, the master was in a hurry, the people were making trouble, the people were coming, the people were fleeing, the flow of people was running to tell each other, the sound of gongs and pots shook the sky, and the buckets were carried one by one, and the pots were lifted, carrying brooms, and carrying guys, all of them flocked to the big kitchen warehouse with black smoke.
However, before the fire in the kitchen was extinguished, the fire began in the granary, and the fire spread inexplicably through the garden and backyard to the storeroom.
Looking at the thick smoke billowing in the direction of the warehouse, Xiao Yuan, who was standing at the door of the hall of the main courtyard and observing the movement, changed his expression suddenly.
"Well, that's the direction of the storeroom! Quick, put out the fire......"
If Xiao Yuan's family was still stable when he learned that it was the big kitchen fire just now, at this moment, when he saw the public treasury of the silver in the house on fire, Xiao Yuan's family couldn't bear it anymore, and he couldn't bear the unfavorable responsibility of this master, so he hurriedly grabbed the cronies and servants around him and spoke in a trembling voice.
"Quick, go, order all the people in the house, but whoever can move, immediately, immediately, all of them will go to the treasury to put out the fire."
"But ma'am, what about the kitchen and the granary?"
Xiao Yuan waved away the personal mother who was pulling him out of square inches, and pushed the person hard, "Get out!" If Mrs. Ben tells you to go, you go. What is important about the kitchen and the grain depot, and where there is a public treasury is important. The kitchen is burned, and there are small kitchens in each courtyard to take over. The grain depot has been burned, but it is only accumulated for half a year, and it is a big deal to send people to Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing to transport it again after the end of martial law, and you will not be hungry. But if the public treasury burns ......", Mo said that he couldn't talk to the national bus when he turned around, it was himself, and the old gold and silver antiques, and financial objects could also kill her!
"Go, go quickly, one counts as one, all go, you can't save the treasury, Mrs. Ben asks you !!"
Xiao Yuan's angry eagerness, mixed with the noise around him, seemed so powerless.
The people in the Manchu Mansion were all sent to the public treasury, where can they take care of anything else, the whole mansion is in a mess, but how many people there are, looking at the raging fire, the people in the Manchu Mansion are desperate in their hearts.
I can't save it, I really can't save it......
If you want to ask them, this responsibility can not be afforded, think of this, not to mention anything else, such as the subordinate who is in charge of the treasury, there is the subordinate who knows that he cannot bear the responsibility of the master's family, one by one began to shrink, they have to escape, even if they are fugitive slaves for nine deaths, he has to plan for himself, and a shrewd group of subordinates began to flee against the flow of people.
Qin Wu, who was busy in the wine cellar, noticed that something was wrong, and faintly, she seemed to hear a strange noise.
Qin Wu wondered, and said in his heart, isn't a catastrophe coming?
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still, and then didn't listen to Xie Zhen's instructions to wait for him to come slowly, and quickly collected the last few jars of wine, and was about to come out to see what was going on, not wanting to meet Xie Zhen who hurried back before she arrived at the wine cellar.
Qin Wu was anxious, pulled Xie Zhen and asked, "What's going on outside?" I listened to the commotion, but the guillotine fell, and the disaster is coming?"
"Don't worry, no." , Xie Zhen shook his head and carefully led the person out of the dark wine cellar.
As soon as he showed his head, when he saw the raging fire that illuminated almost half of the sky outside, Qin Wu was dumbfounded, "This, this is?" Xie Zhen, your house is on fire!"
Different from Qin Wu's nervousness and surprise, Xie Zhen's expression did not change a little, and he was not a little anxious, only a faint hum and no follow-up, which made Qin Wu wake up suddenly, and stared back at the second dog master in front of him in disbelief, Qin Wu nodded at the places where there was black smoke and flames, but his tone was extremely sure, "This is what you asked me to wait to see?" Set fire to your home?
"Well, not really." Xie Zhen shrugged his shoulders, and admitted it very simply, without any weakness, "In order to sweep the tail of your Sanguang for your kissing lady, Wu'er, when you are happy in the wine cellar, I am tired of being a princess." ”
There is so much wine in the cellar of the big kitchen, and the tung oil lamp oil in the miscellaneous warehouse in the lower courtyard are all good things, in order to sweep the tail clean, he has to move out quietly, and he has to avoid splashing it in a hurry, starting from the kitchen to light the fire, to the granary, to the warehouse, all the way to arson, he is easy.
No matter how high the kung fu is, in order to do it without leaving a trace, he has to hurry, and he is not tired.
"You, you, you...... You're amazing!"
What else could she say?
Such a powerful reason, so open-minded, so ruthless that even her own house was burned, she was speechless, but she still wanted to struggle: "Second master, don't say what is for me, I ......", she wanted to say that this pot sister does not carry it, obviously you have to take precautions yourself, but when the words came to her mouth, she thought that people burned their homes to cover up the empty warehouse, and the things in the warehouse were now in her house, Qin Wu had nothing to say for a while, and her tone became weak and dry, "Ahem, what's that, the burn is burned, what should we do now, Is it to put out fires?"
According to her, the face project has to be done, otherwise what can be done to investigate it?
I didn't want the second dog in front of me to follow the routine at all, so I just pulled her and left.
"There's no need, we have our own servants to fight fires or something, we still have important things to do at the moment. I'll send you back to Bibo Pavilion first, and then Wu'er will send the people in the yard to put out the fire first, and take the opportunity to pick your own things you like, and collect the valuable, but Wu'er remember, don't take them all.
In addition, let's see if your girl has obeyed her master's orders and made everything she has done?
If it's good, you can avoid people and put it away, and you can use it when you turn around, if it's not good, forget it, you pick up the clothes and bedding that are not eye-catching in your house and put them away, remember, it's best to mess up the house after collecting it, and make it look like someone is checking and robbing in a panic. By the way, the deed of the people you have in hand is also collected, so beware of the people who take advantage of the chaos.
As for the firefighting, the house is so chaotic, who knows if we have been there, when we have been, the master is the master, the master said that he went, but the next person just didn't see it, who dared to say that we didn't go? Be good, don't be afraid, everything has a husband. ”
"Okay, I got it." , Qin Wu understood what Xie Zhen meant, nodded his head, and then thought of something and asked, "What about you?" What are you going to do?", Hikari arranged for her.
When Xie Zhen heard this, he didn't stop leaving with Qin Wu, and only patted Qin Wu's hand comfortingly, "There are still some important things for my husband who must be fetched." ”
"Is it dangerous?"
"Wu'er, is this worried about being a husband?"
"Oh, love to say it or not." , she is afraid of being implicated.
Xie Zhen looked at his arrogant little wife helplessly, but still promised: "It's not dangerous." ”
Qin Wu immediately waved his hand indifferently, "Nacheng, be careful yourself." ”
"Well, for the sake of Wu'er, for the husband will also protect himself, Wu'er rest assured."
She also subconsciously politely, she didn't want this person to be moved, Qin Wu paused, and felt sorry for herself in her heart, she always felt that she was robbing other people's husbands with other people's skins, and she didn't know the truth at all, she ran away from the people around her and hurriedly: "Aren't you in a hurry to get something, hurry up, hurry up, what's the delay."
Seeing this, Xie Zhen felt a sense of loss in his heart, but he was not annoyed, he had time in this life, didn't he? Xie Zhen raised his foot and chased after him.
Xie Zhen led the way and sent Qin Wu to Bibo Pavilion, watched Qin Wu enter the door, waited for three breaths, saw that the bell and Xiao Lu were immediately sent out, it seemed that he was in a hurry to the fire, Xie Zhen had a number in his heart, and he was afraid that the other servants and subordinates of Bibo Pavilion would have gone to fight the fire a long time ago, so these two stayed behind, and now they were all sent away, and they could let go if they wanted to come to his house.
As for yourself?
Xie Zhen turned around and looked in the direction of the West Garden, raised his feet and left.
In addition to the master who stayed away from the fire safely, almost all the subordinates went to put out the fire, of course, the most important ancestral hall in the house, there were still two powerful servants left here.
Seeing Xie Zhen coming, the two mothers-in-law who were leaning on the porch to chat and fart hurriedly stood up.
"Two, second master? It's a mess outside, why did you come to the ancestral hall? ”
Xie Zhen was in a hurry to get something, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with the two servants, so he raised his feet and went to the ancestral hall, but he didn't expect that these two old men would dare to stop people.
"Second master, when there was chaos in the front house, Mrs. specially sent someone to explain, let the old slaves take care of the ancestral hall, guard the Danshu iron coupons, don't let outsiders take advantage of it, and please be considerate of the second master, you can't enter this second master."
Xie Zhen, who raised one foot, immediately smiled angrily and nodded to himself, "Master is an outsider?" ”
Although it is not, it is not the Lord who can control their heads, the two servants looked at each other, bowed their heads in unison and remained silent.
Xie Zhen shook his sleeves and scolded angrily: "Get out of the way." ”
"Second master, no!"
Seeing that the two of them didn't care about coming up to stop them, Xie Zhen was really angry, "Bold slave, are you the master or the master?" Or is it that the second master, who has no biological mother to take care of, is lightweight, and he ordered you two slaves not to move? ”
"No, it's not, second master."
"Not? Scold! Xie Zhen sneered, "What's that?" The dog slave let go of the master, no matter how bad the lord is, he can't allow the two of you to be presumptuous, no matter how the lady protects you, you don't forget, the grandfather is still the father, and the grandfather is still the second master of this mansion, today's matter is really to be investigated, do you think, will your wife protect you at that time, or will she stand up for the magnanimity? ”
The two servant women couldn't help but scold when they heard this, and scolded in their hearts, why did this person in front of him change his temperament for the first time, and he actually learned to be like the third master, could it be that the gentle and elegant in the past and the good temperament were all pretended?
