Zhao Di's mother, Mrs. Hu, left Mrs. Xu and ran back home alone.
As soon as I entered, I locked the door and heard the constant noise of firefighting coming from outside.
Holding the handkerchief in hand, I felt happy.
When she went to find Eugene Gui in the evening, she saw mountains of wool piled up in the yard. A fire would definitely burn them all, even if the gods came, they wouldn't be able to help.
She got the word from her daughter Zhaodi that this batch of wool was used to knit woolen socks and kneepads for the border army. If anything went wrong, it would be considered a violation of military orders and a misunderstanding of the military situation, and would be beheaded and exiled.
The old Bai family deserved to be beheaded and exiled.
It is fitting that those families in the village who have good relations with the Lao Bai family will also be implicated.
Isn’t Xiao Fuyuan blessed? Isn’t it a spirit?
Throwing fire in, she didn't believe that little Fuyuan's blessing could cover the wool.
A fire not only burned away the wool, but also completely burned Xiao Fuyuan's reputation as a lucky girl.
Hearing the sound of fire-fighting outside, she opened a crack in the door and tried her best to look towards the embroidery workshop. She found that there was no fire in the sky as expected, and she was still muttering in her heart that Mrs. Xu had clearly thrown the torch in the right place according to her instructions.
Then the sound of firefighting outside became smaller and smaller.
Only then did she feel faintly worried
I don’t know if Xu ran away or not. It’s hard to say if she ran away.
What if you didn't run away, what if you were caught and confessed?
She thought of the idea Xu gave her at night, and after setting the fire, she blamed Wu Langzhong.
But now that I think about it, how could the old Bai family be so easy to fool into believing her words?
By the way, Yu Mazi’s fourth cousin, Yu Jingui, how did she get together with Wu Langzhong? In a trance, she saw Eugene Gui emerging from Langzhong Wu's house.
Mrs. Hu turned around and thought about it, and a vicious plan came into her mind.
If you are caught, first throw the blame on Mrs. Xu. If you fail, then blame Eugene Gui and Wu Langzhong.
She couldn't sit still and wait for death anyway.
Why did the smell come from my own hands?
Mrs. Hu took a quick look and saw that she had stumbled and grabbed a handkerchief on the ground while running away in a panic. She didn't expect that the handkerchief was so smelly. It turned out that it had an unknown object on it.
She quickly threw it away and took another look at it in the moonlight. It became more and more familiar to her, as if Eugene Gui had such a veil.
Got it!
Hu’s eyes are shining!
"Open the door."
Mrs. Hu was startled when she heard the voice of her daughter Zhaodi.
After hearing carefully that there was no one else except Zhao Di, Mrs. Hu opened the door.
"Damn girl, where did you go?" After Zhao Di came in, Mrs. Hu locked the door again.
"Mom, did you and Aunt Xu start the fire at the Bai Family Embroidery Workshop?"
Zhaodi asked as soon as she entered the door with tears on her face.
When Eugene Gui started shouting that there was a fire in the embroidery workshop, she went out with a bucket to put out the fire.
Xu was caught in the Baijia Embroidery Shop all the time.
Mrs. Xu came to her home tonight and talked a lot with her mother. You Zhaodi guessed that her mother was responsible for the fire in the Bai family embroidery workshop.
She felt ashamed and ashamed.
His father almost killed Xiao Fuyuan. The Bai family let her work in the embroidery workshop regardless of the previous grudges. She could earn 20 pieces of silver a day, but she didn't expect that her mother would destroy the Bai family embroidery workshop.
"You damn girl, you are devoted to the old Bai family. Don't think that you are part of the Bai family just because you work there. You are just a lowly girl in the eyes of others." Mrs. Hu became angry when her daughter questioned her about the central issue.
It looks like my mother participated in the arson.
Zhaodi felt unspeakably disappointed.
"Mom, go and admit it to the Bai family." Zhao Di cried.
"Fart, I didn't set the fire. Who am I to admit it." She, Mrs. Hu, didn't set the fire. She could at most give Mrs. Xu a fire certificate. Even if Lao Bai's embroidery workshop was burned to ashes, it had nothing to do with her.
"Even if you didn't let it go, you and Aunt Xu discussed setting it on fire." Zhao Di said, "If you don't admit your mistake, you will be caught by the Bai family later and you will not only admit your mistake."
When Mrs. Hu saw her daughter threatening herself, she was so angry that her heart ached and she cursed: "If you have the ability, go and tell the Bai family that it was your mother who set the fire. If you go, you will wait for the Bai family to get me to go and have sex with you." You will be happy if you are exiled together with your father. You look at me and I don’t know what your intentions are. You hate me for wanting Chunya to sell you to Huaicheng as a maid. You hate me for loving your brother, so you want to kill me. .”
Hu said while grabbing Zhaodi and beating her.
"As long as I bite my tongue and don't say anything, no one can do anything to me." Hu said.
Zhaodi burst into tears after being beaten, but she did not dare to expose her mother in front of the Bai family.
If her mother is handed over and she is really exiled with her father, what will happen to her and her brother?
This family is completely broken up!
"If you dare to say even a word in Lao Bai's house, I will beat you to death." After Mrs. Hu finished speaking, she closed the door with a handkerchief and hurried out.
She took Eugene Gui's handkerchief and rushed to Wu Langzhong's house.
The door of Wu Langzhong's house was ajar and it was quiet. It was estimated that Wu Langzhong had not returned from his night visit, so Mrs. Hu felt secretly happy.
It seemed that God was on her side.
She quietly opened Wu Langzhong's door, and sure enough, there was no sound.
"Ah." As soon as Mrs. Hu stepped into the main room of Wu Langzhong's house, she was almost knocked unconscious with a stick.
"Miss, this person is sneaky and doesn't look like a good person."
The speaker was Xiaomei, the maid of Shopkeeper Xu’s family.
Xu Jiaojiao came to Shenshu Village to enjoy the lanterns and sprained her ankle, so she came to Wu's house for treatment.
After Wu Langzhong cured Mrs. Xu's heartache, he became the "personal doctor" of the Xu family. Whenever the Xu family felt uncomfortable, Wu Langzhong would like to ask Wu Langzhong to look at it.
Therefore, Xu Jiaojiao didn't feel any embarrassment when she came to Wu Langzhong's home as a patient.
In addition, last time Bai Sanzhuang was falsely accused of treason, she and Wu Langzhong came to Bai's house to reveal the news. Wu Langzhong protected her all the way, which made her have other thoughts about Wu Langzhong.
She originally wanted to go back after curing her foot injury, but Eugene Gui's throat caught fire and called Wu Langzhong to put out the fire. However, her feet were still covered with medicine and she did not dare to move around easily.
When Xu Jiaojiao heard that the Baijia embroidery workshop was on fire, she sent Xiaomei out to see what was going on.
When Xiaomei came back after hearing a lot of gossip in the embroidery workshop, she saw the Hu family sneaking into Wu's house.
"Why is this person so familiar?" Xu Jiaojiao lit the lamp.
Mrs. Hu was very surprised to see shopkeeper Xu's daughter in Langzhong Wu's room.
What a good Wu Langzhong, no wonder she didn't take the bait no matter how he tried to hook her up, but here was his bait.
"What are you, a grown-up girl, doing at Wu Langzhong's house?" Hu asked Xu Jiaojiao from the moral high ground after the initial panic.
Xu Jiaojiao glanced at Mrs. Hu, and Miss Qianjin became angry and said, "I love you wherever you are, and what do you want me to do?"
"Miss, this person seems to be the accomplice of the Bai Family Embroidery Workshop arsonist. He is... what kind of Youmazi's wife..." Xiaomei said.
Absolutely right.
Xiaomei and Xu Jiaojiao came to Lao Bai's house from time to time, and she recognized everyone in Shenshu Village.
Mrs. Hu panicked when she heard what Xiaomei said.
"Don't talk nonsense about who is the accomplice. I think you two eldest girls are doing shameful things in Wu Langzhong's family. If you frame me, I will scream." Hu said.
Xu Jiaojiao chuckled.
Since she learned about Li Jin, she doesn't care about reputation at all.
"Xiaomei, tie her up and send her to the Baijia Embroidery Workshop." Xu Jiaojiao picked up the stick and knocked Mrs. Hu unconscious.
