In addition, Xia Yuanqiu wanted back her mother's original dowry, and her net worth was not small. She was the only daughter married in Yaowang Valley. I heard that the dowry was at least ten miles long.
Would such a person still care about a few banknotes to send beggars
Lin did not dare to offend Xia Tieniu again, so she had to ask: "Then how do we get in?"
Xia Tieniu said angrily: "I said you are getting better and better as you live. Do you still want to enter this Xia Mansion? Can you get in?" He used to look like a smart person, but now he is getting more and more stupid
Mrs. Lin didn't understand what Xia Tieniu was thinking at all. After being scolded by him a few times, she simply shut up. She didn't say anything or asked. She just followed him obediently. What should he do? , just do whatever she wants, and she won’t get scolded!
Squatting until midnight, Xia Tieniu thought about it, and felt that Lin's doubts during the day were not unreasonable. If Xia Wuqiu doubted what he said, and asked someone casually, wouldn't it reveal the truth
No, he must succeed this time and never return empty-handed again.
He seemed to be cruel, turned his head and looked in the direction of his home, and said to Mrs. Lin, "You stay here and I'll come back."
Xia Tieniu sneaked back to his home. After a while, thick smoke began to rise from the adobe house. He covered his mouth and ran out. Looking at the house where the fire was getting more and more intense, he must have felt unhappy. I wanted to give it up, but then I thought again, I couldn’t let go of my child, and I couldn’t trap the wolf. Only by making a desperate move could I have a chance to stand up.
He no longer cared about the burning house and slipped back to Lin in disgrace.
Lin pointed to the rising smoke in the distance and said, "Whose house is on fire?"
Xia Tieniu didn't even look back and said, "He's from our family."
"What? Our house is on fire?" Ms. Lin stood up and was about to run away, but Xia Tieniu grabbed her tightly: "Crazy woman, I ordered it. Don't you still understand?"
Mrs. Lin was so frightened that the head of the house set her own house on fire and refused to let her put out the fire. This was because he was deliberately burning down his own house!
After a while, Mrs. Lin came back to her senses and said: "Master, have you ever thought about what we will do if Xia Yuanqiu doesn't give us money? We even lose our house, what will we do?"
Xia Tieniu looked stubborn: "No, Xia Yuanqiu is a doctor, and everyone in the world knows her as a little miracle doctor. Who knows that she is kind-hearted, and there is no injustice she sees on the road that she won't take action against. Now that we are in great trouble, she is How could you stand by and watch?"
Although what the boss said made sense, Mrs. Lin always felt that this matter would not go as they wished.
"Sister, Xia Tieniu's house is on fire and burned to the ground!" Xia Yuanhao found Xia Yuanqiu and Yun Xiangjun in the back garden, and quickly reported to his sister what he had just seen while out for a walk.
Xia Yuanqiu raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Their house is on fire? I'm afraid they lit it themselves!"
Xia Yuanhao snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Sister, you are really a good fortune teller. They really lit the fire themselves. Someone happened to see Xia Tieniu's house on fire. Xia Tieniu rushed out of his house in a panic. They ran out and didn't ask anyone to put out the fire. They ran away without a trace. It was the neighbors who helped them put out the fire on their own initiative, so the house was not burned to rubble, but it was close."
After all, it is an adobe house, and the furniture inside is all made of wood and is flammable. If the fire starts, it will definitely be out of bounds. No matter how much water is poured, it will be of little use.
