Chapter 248

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lanhua's eyes flickered;

"Uncle village chief, you've seen it too, the fire came so suddenly," Zhao Lanhua suddenly raised her arm, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said in a more aggrieved tone, "Two days ago, Da Lang went back to the county seat. Busy at the pastry shop; Erlang accompanied his family back to Yue's house... If my father hadn't suddenly asked me and Dashan to accompany him yesterday, maybe this time... woo woo woo..."

"Don't be afraid of orchids!" Seeing his daughter-in-law crying in fright, Shen Dashan felt extremely distressed, quickly grabbed her hand, and said in a gentle voice, "Although I don't know which bastard set fire to our house. , but our family is blessed and blessed!"

"As long as our family is safe and sound, the house can be rebuilt."

"Yeah!" Zhao Lanhua nodded vigorously, then raised her hand to wipe away her tears, "It's fortunate that the land father-in-law has blessed our family!"

Shen Menghu, who was sitting on the rattan chair, frowned slightly as he watched the husband and wife singing together;

Could it be that he was wrong just now?

Dashan's daughter-in-law wasn't too calm, but she was frightened out of her wits?

"Cough cough," Shen Menghu coughed twice, "The yard won't be repaired in a while, have you two thought about where to go?"

"Village chief, I want to bring the village chief back to my father's house for a while," Zhao Lanhua sighed softly, his words full of melancholy, "I believe you have heard about my father's incident, right?"

After all, if good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles away. Everyone in the ten miles and eight villages should know about Tian Xiu'e.

Now the villagers of Tianjia Village look at Tian Guangsheng with sympathy and pity;

Even a little contemptuous.

Zhao Lanhua was worried that his father would think wildly, so she thought of taking this opportunity to stay in Tianjia Village for a longer time.

"Alright," Shen Menghu nodded, "This Tianjia Village is not too far away from our Shanghe Village, but this is not a long-term solution. Dashan, didn't you want to expand the yard a few years ago? Now this house is also Most of it burned, or you will find some craftsmen to start construction in the near future?"

"After all, it will be spring plowing in a few days. At that time, it will be even more difficult to find craftsmen."

"Uncle Hu Zi, you are right." Shen Dashan silently nodded his head in agreement, "Just after Master Jiang completes the construction of the Earth Temple, I will pick a day for them to start work."

"Well," Shen Menghu nodded, and said in a deep voice, "You two wait for me for a while."

Shen Menghu walked out of his main room on crutches, and came back a quarter of an hour later.

"Uncle Huzi, what are you doing?" Shen Dashan looked at the heavy purse that he stuffed over with a dazed look.

"Such a big fire probably destroyed a lot of things." Shen Menghu sighed faintly, "Thanks to your family, A Tao, who helped me rent out the out-of-production oil press workshop, it made me a small profit So this ten taels of silver is a little bit of my personal sympathy."

"How can I do that?" Shen Dashan quickly shook his head and refused, and said in a serious tone, "Uncle Huzi, I can't accept this money!"

"I've said it all, it's my wish!" Shen Menghu glared at him angrily, "I don't know how much money it will cost to build such a big house according to your original plan! Not to mention the fire It’s really not small, I’m afraid you and your husband didn’t keep their money, right?”

"Orchid she..."

"Thank you, Uncle Village Chief!" Zhao Lanhua hastily interrupted Shen Dashan, and said, "However, my third son once said that you will not be rewarded for nothing! But since you also said that this money is a little bit of your heart , then we will not refuse, but I have a request."

Zhao Lanhua made up her mind and said with a smile, "This money is a loan from Dashan and I, so we have to issue you an IOU. After our yard is built, we must pay back the money! If you If you agree to my proposal, then I will collect the money now."

"Of course, if you don't agree, we can't accept the money."

Shen Menghu didn't expect that the request she said was this, and he couldn't think of a word to refuse for a while;

"Dashan," Shen Menghu suddenly turned to look at Shen Dashan, and smiled lovingly, "Your Lanhua's mouth is still as eloquent as ever!"

Finally all three laughed;

At the end of the hour, Shen Yao had accompanied Ji Zhao to the county seat.

Hongxing Restaurant.

Shopkeeper You Er, who was fiddling with the abacus, heard a familiar voice, raised his eyes hastily, and smiled brightly, "A Tao? Shen Yao? Why are you here? Come on, upstairs please!"'

a quarter of an hour later;

You Er slapped the table angrily, angrily, "This group of vicious people is simply lawless, how dare they set fire to commit murder?"

"Brother You, calm down first." Shen Yao hastily poured a cup of tea and handed it to You Er, "Fortunately, I just burned some things at home, and everyone is fine."

"Yes!" You Er couldn't help but sighed, "Fortunately, your family is fine, it's really a blessing!"

"Brother You, actually we came to you for two reasons." After eating two pieces of pastries, Ji Zhao felt that his heart was not so disturbed, "First, I want to open the fried shop , and add rice casserole to the menu; secondly, I hope you can do us a favor."

"A Tao, just say it!" You Er hurriedly said, patting his chest, "I will definitely help if I can help!"

"I want to ask if anyone has bought a large amount of kerosene recently?" Ji Zhao lowered his eyes lightly and said in a deep voice, "Second Brother You, you have a lot of contacts, may I trouble you to help me find out?"

"...Okay." You Er instantly understood Ji Zhao's intentions, nodded immediately and said, "A Tao, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to find out."

"By the way, why don't you two just stay in the restaurant?" You Er quickly suggested.

Ji Zhao subconsciously looked at Shen Yao beside him, and Shen Yao nodded slightly towards her.

In the end, the two decided to stay in the restaurant for a while.

"A Tao, I see that your complexion is not very good." You Er looked at Ji Zhao, and said with concern, "Why don't you and Shen Yao go back to the guest room to rest? I have lunch today, and I will send it to you. in your room?"

"Yesterday, I'm afraid you were scared a lot, right?"

"Well," Ji Zhao forced a smile, "The flames soaring into the sky are really frightening, but fortunately there is no danger."

"That's why I said, A Tao, you are a lucky girl!" You Er said with a smile, stroking his mustache.

Two quarters of an hour later, Shen Yao brought a pot of hot water, wrung out the handkerchief, and handed it to Ji Zhao who was sitting in front of the window with his chin in a daze, "A Tao, wipe your face?"

"Thank you." After washing his face, Ji Zhao felt that he was finally sober.

"Come over for some noodles?"

Gently brushing away the broken hair on her forehead, gently caressing her cheek, Shen Yao said softly.
