Chapter 987 The charming husband is at the door (67)

  The well in the courtyard was surrounded by fire, so hot that it was impossible for people to pass through.

  Su Qiruo pulled Su Zhenghua and said: "Third sister, let's go to the well in the front yard to fetch water. When the helpers arrive later, these water tanks alone will definitely not be enough."

   Not to mention a few water tanks, even if there is a river here, the most exquisite houses of the Su family cannot be kept.

   Fortunately, people are still alive, so we can only do our best in the rest of the matter, and don't want to implicate others.

   There was a rush of footsteps accompanied by anxious voices from the crowd, and the villagers had already rushed over to help.

  Although Su Qiruo knows some kung fu, he is not as strong as Su Zhenghua, after all, he has never done these tasks before.

  So Su Zhenghua was in charge of fetching water, and Su Qiruo was in charge of pouring it into the water tank.

  The two sisters are not slow, but they still can't keep up with the speed of water.

  Neighbors around were helpless. At this time, they didn't care whether they liked the Su family or not. Those who had wells opened their yards. After busying all night, the fire gradually died down.

  Looking at the burnt ruins, Mrs. Zheng collapsed on the ground again and burst into tears.

  The only thing he is thankful for now is the box of family belongings hidden in the ground. If it was placed in the cabinet, it would have disappeared with the fire.

so far so good.

   But his grand house is gone, how will his family live in the future!

   Everyone who heard Mrs. Zheng's crying felt a little uncomfortable. Although this old man is not a very good person, he gave birth to such a good daughter as Su Sanniang, and he has contributed a lot to Lihua Village.

   Just looking at this, everyone no longer has the intention to gloat.

  Especially this house was left by Su Sanniang, a fire broke the last thought of Su Sanniang, Mrs. Su and Mrs. Zheng.

   Wanting to comfort her, seeing Mrs. Zheng crying sadly, no one dared to come forward.

   It happened that Su Qiruo and Su Zhenghua were standing in the corner with sore arms, and everyone greeted the two of them before leaving.

   After thanking Su Qiruo and Su Zhenghua, they sent people out one by one, and then returned to the courtyard with a tired face.

  The fire burned down the courtyards of Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Su, and more than half of the yards of the first room and the second room, leaving only a few guest rooms in the front yard unaffected.

  The firewood in the stove room was completely missing. In the morning light, one could still see the outlines of the two blackened pots at a glance.

  Su Zhenghua was most fortunate that she lived in the house on the farthest side, and the fire did not escape, otherwise her room full of books would be gone.

   There are many things left by the third aunt in it, and she is still waiting to pass them on to her descendants!

  At this time, it seemed inappropriate to say anything, seeing Su Zhenghua's solemn expression, Su Qiruo could only pat her on the shoulder.

   "It's lucky that people are fine."

   Otherwise, it's not just a matter of human life. This year, the two sisters don't have to take the scientific examination.

   Glancing at Fourth Sister Su who was still standing there with one foot bare, Su Qiruo asked coldly, "How did this fire start?"

  Fourth sister Su came back to her senses, looked at Su Qiruo in a daze, opened her lips, her voice was a little hoarse.

   "Yeah... from the grandmother's house."

   This is also thanks to her going to the latrine in the middle of the night, otherwise grandma and grandfather would have been burned alive in the house.

The fourth sister Su roughly said that she found the fire, and then rushed in and told Su Qiruo and Su Zhenghua what her grandmother and grandfather had recited. Son.

   For some reason, she always felt that the Fourth Sister Su was a little different from the one when she first met her.

  Because I don't have much contact, I don't know when it started to change.

   Maybe it has something to do with the matter between Su Erniang and the Zhou family.

  Knowing that the fire wasn't set on purpose by someone who didn't agree with the family, Su Qiruo felt relieved.

  As for how Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Su accidentally burned down the house, there could be many reasons.

   After all, when you are older, it is not as good as when you were young. Many things will not be noticed, and it will lead to disaster.

  Although she doesn't like the members of the Su family, seeing them all looking devastated, Su Qiruo has mixed feelings in her heart.

   This house is gone, and it is fate.

  Su Sanniang's only daughter can't live in the house left by Su Sanniang, and the retribution has finally arrived.

   That's all, since that's the case, she will forget about the past, and get well with the Su family in the future!

  She had thought of avenging Zheng for revenge for Qiao Nian, but now she doesn't need to do anything, the house is gone, enough to make Zheng's life worse than death.

  So, that’s pretty good too.

  The whole family was still immersed in grief. Someone from Lizheng’s family came, holding a basket of whole grain steamed buns and a pot of tofu soup in their hands.

   "If the house is gone, it can be rebuilt, as long as people are alive, after a busy night, come and eat something!"

   Lizheng looked at the old lady Su and comforted her.

  Su Sanlang who came along with him sneaked a glance at Su Qiruo who was standing there, and quickly looked away again.

  All the Su family members looked sad, but she was the only one who remained as calm as water, without any panic or loss.

   "Thank you very much."

  Old Mrs. Su thanked her tiredly, and tried her best to pull the corners of her mouth, but she couldn't laugh no matter what.

   She is such a face-saving person, she usually relies on the big house built by her third daughter to support her face, and now she has nothing.

   "They're all from the same village, so don't thank them for anything. Hurry up and get the children to eat, and then pack up these things after eating to see if there is anything else that can be used."

  Lizheng didn't like Mrs. Su either, but she couldn't ignore her family's troubles.

   After finishing speaking, he didn't want to stay any longer, Li Zheng turned around and left with the children at home.

  Su Qiruo strode up to follow: "I'll take you out, and after the house is cleaned up, we'll go door to door to thank the villagers."

  The Su family didn't have the time to think about other things at the moment, as Su Qiruo was the only outsider, it would be inappropriate not to stand up at this time.

  Lizheng patted Su Qiruo's arm lightly, without saying anything, but Su Qiruo seemed to understand her meaning.

   Taking a look at the sky, Su Qiruo didn't go back, but went directly to her home.

  Su Zhenghua decided to stay and help, but she couldn't let go of Qiao Nian, so she had to go back and have a look, wash her face and have breakfast.

  Su Qiruo can't help with the rest of the matter, and picking things up in the ashes is not suitable for her.

  If Mrs. Zheng falsely accuses her of picking up his money again, then she will really be thankless.

  After Qiao Nian woke up, he also heard Uncle Liu talk about the incident in the front yard. If Su Qi asked Uncle Liu to watch Qiao Nian at home, Uncle Liu didn't help, but he also saw how big the fire was.

   When Qiao Nian was still worried about Su Qiruo, he came back.

   "Are you all right?"

  Qiao Nian rushed over to look Su Qiruo up and down, fearing that she might get hurt.
