Chapter 987 The charming husband (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 for the remaining things, 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 knew some kung fu, she was not as strong as Su Zhenghua, after all, she had never done such 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.
The neighbors around were helpless, and they didn't care whether they liked the Su family or not. Those who had wells opened their yards and kept busy all night before the fire gradually died down.
Seeing the burnt ruins, Mrs. Zheng collapsed on the ground and cried loudly.
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 magnificent big house is gone, how will his family live in the future!
Everyone who heard 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 point, everyone lost the gloating mind.
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 something, 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 before everyone left, they greeted the two sisters.
After Su Qiruo and Su Zhenghua thanked each other, they sent people out one by one, and then returned to the courtyard with tired faces.
The fire burned down the entire 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 was completely gone, and in the morning light, one could still see the outlines of the two blackened pots at a glance.
What Su Zhenghua was most thankful for was that she lived in the house on the farthest side, and the fire did not escape, otherwise her house 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!
It seemed inappropriate to say anything at this time, seeing Su Zhenghua's solemn expression, Su Qiruo could only pat her on the shoulder.
"It's lucky that people are okay."
Otherwise, it's not just a matter of human life, the two sisters don't have to take the scientific examination this year.
Glancing at Fourth Sister Su who was still standing there with one foot bare, Su Qiruo asked coldly, "How did this fire start?"
Only then did Fourth Sister Su come back to her senses, she looked at Su Qiruo in a daze, she parted her lips, her voice was a little hoarse.
"Yes... it started from the grandmother's house."
This is also thanks to her going to the latrine in the middle of the night, otherwise grandmother and grandfather would have been burned alive in the house.
The fourth sister Su roughly said that she found the fire, then rushed in and told Su Qiruo and Su Zhenghua what her grandmother and grandfather had recited, Su Qiruo also had to sigh with emotion, this fourth sister Su finally did something Son.
For some reason, she always felt that the Fourth Sister Su was a little different from the one she first met.
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 caused by a disagreement between family members, 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 old, it is not as good as when you were young. If you don't notice many things, it will lead to catastrophe.
Although she doesn't like the members of the Su family, but seeing them all looking devastated, Su Qiruo has mixed feelings in her heart.
This house is gone, and it is life.
Su Sanniang's only daughter could not live in the house left by Su Sanniang, and the retribution finally came.
That's all, since that's the case, she will ignore the past, and get well with the Su family in the future!
She had thought of getting revenge on Zheng Shi for Qiao Nian, but now she doesn't need to do anything, the house is gone, enough to make Zheng Shi's life worse than death.
So, that's fine 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. It's good to be alive. After a busy night, come and eat something!"
Li Zheng looked at Mrs. Su and comforted him.
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 helplessness.
"Thank you."
Old Madam Su thanked her wearily, 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, but now she has nothing.
"They're all from the same village. You can't thank them for anything. Hurry up and get the children to eat. After eating, pack up these things and 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, 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.
Li Zheng 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 directly went back 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 before eating breakfast.
Su Qiruo can't help with the rest of the matter, and it's not suitable for her to pick things up in the ashes.
If Mrs. Zheng falsely accuses her of picking up his money again, then she will really be thankless.
After Qiao Nian woke up, she 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 go to 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.
