Chapter 102 – Niyunfang is on Fire
”Madam went out to buy silk today, and when she returned, a child suddenly rushed to the front of the carriage and threw a piece of a firecracker at the horse . ”
”Child?”
”Yes, this servant went up to ask . He was just the children of an ordinary farmer . The parents of the children rushed forward and kowtowed to admit their wrongs, so Madam didn't care anymore . ”
Mu Yunyao's forehead twitched . Not to mention why this child had suddenly rushed in front of the carriage, just the fact that he had exploded the firecracker was worthy of suspicion . Even though Jiangnan was rich, ordinary people would not play firecrackers for their children without a new year .
Seeing that she was still worried, Su Qing comforted her, ”Mother just accidentally twisted her leg a little . It's fine . ”
Mu Yunyao quickly squatted down and examined Su Qing's ankles . It was just that they were slightly swollen and red . She couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief . ”Mother, trying your best not to go out these past two days . I'm afraid this matter isn't as simple as it sounds . ”
”Alright . ”
Since Liu Liang wasn't around and she has not fully trust in Si Qin and the rest, Mu Yunyao kept this matter in her heart, for the time being . She is repeatedly warning everyone in Ni Yunfang to be extra careful .
She suddenly woke up at night and smelled a burnt smell . As she put on her clothes, she called for Jin Lan and the others . When she arrived downstairs, she could already see the light of the fire .
Jin Lan and the others had already warned by Mu Yunyao, so they could still hold on . Then, they took out a water basin and quickly extinguished the flames . The fire was not great, just lit the curtain and made the walls black .
Mu Yunyao's brows tightly furrowed, and her heart filled with cold intent . These two days, she had been extra careful and reminded Jin Lan and others to place some flammable fabrics and threads in their room . She carefully put them away as she was afraid that someone would not be able to control herself and set Ni Yunfang on fire .
Jin Lan and the others didn't dare to make a sound . It was Su Qing who limped down the stairs, interrupting Mu Yunyao's contemplation . ”Mother, there's nothing wrong with this small matter . Why have you come downstairs?”
Su Qing looked at the burned curtain and the water stains on the ground, and she couldn't help but cover her chest . ”Yao'er, those people's methods are too vicious . ”
”Mother, don't worry . In two days, I will have them return one by one!” Mu Yunyao's voice was clear and cold . Her black eyes were unfathomable as if all the light in her surroundings had absorbed into it .
Hearing Mu Yunyao's words, Su Qing couldn't help but worry, ”Yao`er, don't be too impulsive . Fortunately, the fire didn't start . ”
”Don't worry, Mother . I know what I'm doing . ”
When Lady Jin heard about what had happened at the Ni Yunfang, she specifically made a trip here . ”Yunyao, is there anything major?”
Mu Yunyao hurriedly came over to greet her . ”Greetings to Madam . I've made you worried . Since I found the fire in time, it's only burnt a little curtain and tidied it up a little . ”
Lady Jin frowned . ”Where's your mother? Is her injury serious?”
”It's just a twist of the foot, so it's fine . ” As Mu Yunyao spoke, she led Lady Jin to sit down and let Jin Lan prepare some fruit tea . ”Madam is pregnant, let's drink some fruit tea . ”
