Bai Shaoyuan ran so fast that he didn't even care about Jiang Yuesheng's shouts behind him. When he came outside the hospital and saw that the house had been burned beyond recognition and was almost in ruins, Bai Shaoyuan's eyes suddenly went dark and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, the boy who caught up with him caught him in time.

"Master! Are you okay?"

Bai Shaoyuan struggled to push away the boy's hand, gritted his teeth and ran towards the courtyard. He looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

Do not!how can that be?

Poetry!His daughter!

"Where is the second lady? Where is the second lady? Where is she? Tell me!"

Bai Shaoyuan grabbed the maid Qing Tao who was standing nearby, pinched her wrist hard and asked with eyes wide open.

Qingtao's already pale face was frightened and started crying when he saw Bai Shaoyuan's current appearance. However, he did not dare not answer the master's question. He suppressed the fear in his heart and choked up:

"Go back to the master, the second young lady..."

Qingtao looked towards the main house that had been burned to ruins. Her legs were shaking with fear. She had never seen such a scene before.

"What is she? Say it quickly! Otherwise I will kill you with one sword!"

Bai Shaoyuan was already anxious at this time. Seeing Qing Tao's frightened look in front of him, his heart suddenly went cold, but he was stubborn and refused to believe it.

Everything is obviously about to get better, why is this happening?Why is this happening!

Shi'er can't die, she can't die!

Bai Shaoyuan had accepted the money sent by the Song Mansion to buy concubines a few days ago, and nearly half of the money had been used. Now that the concubine to be sent to the Song Mansion was gone, the money that had been spent would have to be what to do?

He can't afford it!

Qingtao let out a cry and cried uncontrollably: "Second Miss, she has been burned alive. The fire is too strong and now I'm afraid even the body may not be found."

Qingtao had never seen such a big fire. By the time they were awakened by the other chosen servants, the fire had completely engulfed the entire house.

How could such a huge fire girl escape death?

He must have fainted due to the smoke, and was then completely swallowed up by the fire.

Bai Shaoyuan let go of Qing Tao's wrist in disbelief, and stumbled a few more steps towards the ruins.

At this moment, he couldn't even care about grieving for his dead daughter. He was preoccupied with how to make up for the five hundred silver that had been spent, and how to give an explanation to Master Song.

At this time, Jiang Yuesheng hurriedly came to the courtyard where Bai Lishi lived, and was shocked when he saw the scene in front of him.

She thought that it might be a scene directed and acted by the second lady, but looking at the embarrassed look in front of her, she could imagine how fierce the fire must be. A woman as helpless as the second lady could really Can you escape safely?

Or does she really just want to die?

"Master, the weather is cold and I have brought you a big cloak. You put it on first."

Jiang Yuesheng pursed his lips, stopped thinking about these things, and gently put a black cloak on Bai Shaoyuan, who was completely cold.

Only then did Bai Shaoyuan come back to his senses and murmured blankly to the woman beside him:

"Yue Sheng, it's over, everything is over."

Why is God always so unfair to him? It only takes a few hours for him to be healed!

Jiang Yuesheng gently held Bai Shaoyuan's sweaty hands in his hands and said softly:

"Sir, why did such a big fire suddenly ignite in the second lady's room? Where are the maids and women who were keeping watch at night? Why did it take so long to be discovered? You must cheer up, these things will have to wait. Please check it out one by one."

Bai Shaoyuan's eyes suddenly lit up. Yuesheng was right. There was something fishy about everything this time. Why was there such a big fire in the house if everything was fine?

"Come here, hurry up and check everything for me according to your aunt's instructions!"

The lights in the White Mansion were brightly lit that night, and no one could sleep peacefully.

"Lanxiang, what's going on with the noise outside?"

Mrs. Chen forced herself to sit up, frowning tightly and looking out uneasily.

For some reason, she always slept uneasily tonight, and was awakened by nightmares several times, until she just heard the movement of the servants in the mansion and lost sleep again.

Chen had a vague feeling that something must have happened in this mansion.

Lan Xiang had just learned from the little girl below that the second lady was buried in the fire. When she heard Chen's question, she didn't know how to answer it.

Lan Xiang glanced at Chen's belly and said hesitantly: "Madam, you are in critical condition right now. The master and the others will naturally handle the outside matters. It's still early, so you might as well sleep a little longer."

Seeing Lan Xiang's strange expression, Mrs. Chen's bad premonition intensified, and her heart beat like a drum.

"What happened? How could I sleep with so much noise outside?"

However, Lan Xiang's eyes were a little erratic and she did not dare to answer Chen's question. She was afraid that Chen would be too excited and have some physical problems if she found out.

"Lan Xiang! Am I still your master? If you don't tell me, I will go out and see for myself what is going on outside."

Lan Xiang was frightened by Mrs. Chen's move and immediately knelt on the ground in a hurry, and said tremblingly: "Go back to Madam, I heard from the servants outside that there seems to be a leak in the mansion."

Mrs. Chen was slightly relieved when she heard that there was a leak in the house. In winter, when the weather is dry, it is common for water to accidentally leak somewhere.

But the next second, Chen had a strange feeling in her heart. It was just a slip of the tongue. Why should Lan Xiang's expression be so flustered? She asked with some confusion:

"It was just a leak. Why did you hesitate for a long time and refused to say anything? Where did the leak occur? How is the situation now?"

Lan Xiang knelt on the ground and wished she could bury her head in the soil, but she had to answer Chen's words:

"Back to Madam, it's... the second lady's yard was flooded, and now the fire has been put out."

When Mrs. Chen heard that her youngest daughter's yard was flooded, she suddenly became a little nervous, but she was slightly relieved when she heard that the fire had been put out.

"It's good to put it out, it's good to put it out. What do the servants in Shi'er's yard do for food? They actually let the fire start. What can I do if it hurts the second lady?"

Mrs. Chen was grumbling with dissatisfaction in her heart. If she hadn't been physically weak at this time, she would have dragged those servants out and taught them a lesson.

How unbecoming!

Chen murmured for a long time but found that Lan Xiang was still kneeling on the ground without any reaction. Her heart suddenly sank. Could it be that something happened to Shi'er?
