MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 145 strong fire

Chapter 145: Fierce Fire

 Everyone in Baotaoyuan was panicking now.

 “What should I do? What should I do?”

The third old lady usually seemed to be able to do things better than anyone else, but when something really happened, she had no idea what to do.

 Shang Erlang was originally unsatisfactory. Seeing that his grandfather was also arrested and his wife was also arrested, it was good that he was not frightened half to death.

 Shang Siniang nestled beside her parents, crying helplessly.

 It was as if her life had never been smooth and she could never live a peaceful life anywhere.

And Sanlang and Sanlang's wife are now comforting their two frightened daughters, and at the same time they are full of regret.

"That day I said to move out, but you all didn't agree. Look, now we have been framed to such an extent. I'm afraid the third house is in danger."

Saburo said sadly.

The third old lady seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw at this moment. She rushed over, pulled Shang Sanlang and said.

“Sanlang, please find a way to save your grandfather quickly. At his age, he can’t bear the hardships of prison. If he is beaten again, then our whole family will die, right?”

"Returning to Erlang's wife, she...she is also the one who gave birth to children for our family. If she really gets a reputation as a murderer, how will you let her children behave in the future?"

 The third old lady was really scared this time.

 Afraid that the whole family would be dragged to death.

Saburo looked at the people in the courtyard in front of him, but none of them had any idea how to save people.

So he smiled bitterly and said.

"Grandma thinks too highly of me. We are said to be good people who have left the Duke's palace, but now, who will give us face?"

"Is it possible...do you really want your grandfather to die?"

The third old lady cried hard and wiped her tears, but it was of no avail.

 The people in the courtyard could do nothing but cry with her or sit blankly.

"That's all, let me go outside and ask if there is any chance?"

 Shang Sanlang is not a cruel person. He was willing to rescue his fourth sister from the devil's cave back then, and now he is definitely willing to go out and deal with his grandfather and his second sister-in-law.

 It's just that, with his ability, he may only have more than enough ambition but not enough strength.

But he still sighed twice and walked outside.

On the other hand, Sanlang's wife was worried when she saw him leaving, but she couldn't stop him.

 Looking at the scared looks of his daughters, he comforted them in a low voice.

"It's okay. Mom will take you back first."

 The two daughters nodded and held her clothes tightly, not daring to leave at all.

 When she returned to the house, she asked her two daughters to go to bed quickly.

After coaxing them for a long time, the two of them fell asleep in fear and worry, and Sanlang's wife had time to think about it carefully.

　This matter is problematic no matter how you look at it.

The story of buying a murderer to kill is a lie as soon as you hear it.

 She and Erlang's daughter-in-law have been sisters-in-law for so many years, so they still know each other somewhat.

 Besides, she is just the daughter of the Guan family, and she is not a powerful person. Where can she find these killers to pay for her murder?

The witchcraft dolls found in my grandfather’s house were also fake at first sight.

If there is anyone among the three families who least wants to leave the Duke's mansion, it is probably my grandfather himself.

Would he leave such a big clue waiting for others to search?

 Sanlang’s wife didn’t believe it.

 It can be analyzed, but she doesn't dare to make random guesses.

They had no reason to kill the uncle, and those in the East and West Gardens had no reason to kill him. They were in a deadlock for a while.

 Just because she can't think of any progress here, it doesn't mean that the people in the other two gardens are sitting still and waiting for death.

 In Yunjin Courtyard, Mrs. Wei's heart finally dropped when she heard that the people in the third room had been taken away. There is a scapegoat and evidence. Even if there are some unreasonable things, Wei Mingxian will make arrangements.

Now, even if Shang Yukuan, the Duke of the country, wakes up at this time, she will have a way to deal with it.

So I breathed a sigh of relief and then secretly regretted it.

This move was so stupid. Not only did it not succeed, it also made her tired and had not had a good night's sleep these days.

  It is simply asking for trouble.

However, thinking about the result, she still let the Dongyuan people stay after all.

Now that the Duke of Guo is not recovering from his illness, the people in Dongyuan will not be able to threaten to move out, otherwise outsiders will say that they are unfilial, which is a big hat.

 So, tell yourself that you must calm down.

　　I used to be able to suppress them for ten years, and I can do it now.

 She was thinking about how to encroach or alienate her little by little, but she didn't expect that "something happened" in Dongyuan under her nose.

 That night, I don’t know where the fire started.

Within a short time, most of Dongyuan was engulfed in blazing fire.

The flames soared into the sky, making people tremble with fear.

 The smoke is so thick that you can see it from a few streets away.

 "The water is gone, the water is gone! Dongyuan is gone!"

Groups of slaves carrying barrels and basins went to put out the fire, but they only dared to throw it from a distance.

It is obviously very cold in winter, and the places where snow falls are still damp.

 How could it be so burned?

 In Yunjin Courtyard, when Mrs. Wei heard the news, she had already fallen asleep.

 When I heard someone coming to report this, my first reaction was.

 “Where are the people, have they escaped?”

Although she didn't know where the fire started, she seemed to have received some great good news, and her heart became excited.

If they were all burned to death, wouldn't it be that God has eyes and cleared away her obstacles?

 If that's the case, she must send the Duke, who has been seriously injured and yet to wake up, completely to hell.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have the whole family reunited?

 Unfortunately, God did not grant her wish.

The girl said tremblingly.

"When the fire started, our people had not rushed over. When we arrived, everyone in Dongyuan came out, but the two young ladies were frightened so much that they seemed to be even more seriously ill."

Mrs. Wei was so angry that she couldn't just burn her to death!

 And what the girl said next made Mrs. Wei even more uncomfortable.

 “The general…the general said, said…”

"say what?"

Mrs. Wei glared at the visitor fiercely. Grandma Jiao was still "seriously ill", so naturally she couldn't come to serve her.

But these girls, who look pretty good on weekdays, can't even say a word at critical moments.

 After being scolded by Mrs. Wei like this, the girl stopped stuttering.

“The general said that Dongyuan has been turned into a sea of ​​fire, and even if it is cleared out, no one can live there, so they did not choose any auspicious or unlucky day, and immediately moved to the general’s residence.”

"What?"

Mrs. Wei’s calculations were very loud, but now she has found nothing.

The fire outside was so fierce that she could smell the burning smell even inside Yunjin Courtyard.

Even if the Duke died suddenly at this moment, they would still have to leave.

 Suddenly, the mouthful of blood that I had been so angry almost spurted out.
