The fairy is fierce
Chapter 69: Vengeance is Revenge
Although Zuo Lingquan couldn't see clearly the appearance of the little bird dumpling, he could clearly feel that it was aggrieved. It turned its little head in the collar and kept rubbing Tang Jingxun's neck.
"Woo..."

Tang Jingxuan regained some consciousness, quickly picked up the dumplings, held them in his hands and gently stroked them to comfort her, and his words became clearer:
"Just now...there was such a big fire just now...nothing is gone, everything is burned...wuwu..."
As he spoke, sadness arose in his heart. Tang Jingxuan started crying again and turned around to go to the bedroom.
Zuo Lingquan knew that Tang Jingxuan lived alone, so his belongings were probably stored in the bedroom. At this time, the fire had burned out the windows and was still smoking. The gold and silver were probably burned, so there would be nothing left. .
He quickly stopped Tang Jingxun and comforted him softly: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'll look for you later. I'll look for him again when the rain stops."
Tang Jingxun was a little distracted, his face no longer had the cheerful enthusiasm of the past, only grievances remained on his face, and he murmured:
"They were all left by my parents. They were all in the house. They were all set on fire. I...I..."
Tang Jingxuan has lived alone for so many years, and would rather live out her old age than marry, just to protect her family's property from being plundered by the Chen family. Now that a fire has destroyed everything, how can she accept it? .
Zuo Lingquan wiped Tang Jingxuan's stained cheek with his sleeve, swept away the hair sticking to his cheek, and said softly:
"It's okay, it's just a few houses. I'll just find someone to build it for you tomorrow. It won't cost much money."
"no……"
Tang Jingxuan sobbed, with indescribable grievance in his eyes: "The belongings left behind by my parents...were converted into silver notes, tens of thousands of taels, all put in jewelry boxes...burned away...wuwu... …”
Several tens of thousands taels? !
Zuo Lingquan opened his mouth, his eyes dull.
But then I thought about it, Tang Jingxuan inherited the ancestral business of his grandfather's family, so it is not surprising that he has so much family wealth.
Then the loss is a bit big...
Tang Jingxun was already a little obsessed with money, but suddenly became destitute. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and he no longer wanted to live.
But before she could even whimper, the black coal briquettes in her hand chirped twice and pointed at the corner of the courtyard wall with its beak.
Tang Jingxuan sniffed and turned around to take a look, only to see that under the corner where she had been hiding, in addition to the wet bedding that had fallen to the ground, there was also a jewelry box that had fallen to the ground. Judging from its position, she should have been holding it just now. In arms.
"Eh?..."
Tang Jingxun choked with tears.
Zuo Lingquan was also stunned, a little unbelievable:
"Sister Tang, everyone is so frightened, but you didn't forget to take out the jewelry box? Money is not as important as life."
When Tang Jingxuan saw the safe and sound jewelry box, the sadness on his face actually subsided a bit, and he wanted to run over and pick it up.
Zuo Lingquan was afraid that she would get sick from the heavy rain, so he raised his hand to stop her. He went over to pick up the jewelry box and handed it to Tang Jingxun:
"Okay, okay, the money is all here. How can a rich woman with hundreds of thousands of taels of silver cry for a few houses?"
Tang Jingxuan took the jewelry box and held it in her arms. Her mood gradually recovered and she whispered:
"It costs money to repair a house..."
She lowered her head and looked at the robe she was wearing. She didn't know when she put it on. She felt like she was wearing a small garment underneath. She wasn't too embarrassed, but she just said doubtfully:
"Xiao Zuo, why are you here?"
Zuo Lingquan raised his hand and pointed at the heavy rain in the sky:
"In Qihuang Valley, I saw the thunder and rain here were a little weird, so I ran over here. I didn't expect there was a fire here, but luckily it rained in time."
Tang Jingxuan also showed a bit of joy in his eyes, holding the jewelry box and bowing to God:
"Fortunately, God bless me. If it hadn't rained, I don't know how many people would have been burned to death, and the entire Linhefang would have been destroyed..."
Although Zuo Lingquan felt that the heavy rain was weird, the fire was even weirder. After the two phases were neutralized, nothing serious happened.
Things like celestial phenomena are too mysterious. Zuo Lingquan, a simple Taoist, can't understand them, so he doesn't explore them. He looked around:
"Sister Tang, do you still have any clothes? I'll take you out to find a place to stay first. Be careful of the wind and cold if your clothes get soaked."
Tang Jingxuan tightened her tight robe, and when she saw that Zuo Lingquan was soaked in the rain, he felt that standing here was not enough. She looked around and saw that both the backyard and the wine shop had been burned. They were talking about clothes and couldn't even find a complete piece of cloth. She could only shake her head at the moment:
"It's gone. Let's go to the inn and look for it again."
Zuo Lingquan just saw that Tang Jingxun was naked underneath his robe. There were so many people on the street, and going out like this would ruin his reputation. He thought that Tang Jingxun should wait while he went out to find some clothes first. .
But before Zuo Lingquan opened his mouth, he heard the sound of trotting outside the courtyard wall, and a familiar voice:
"Miss Tang? Miss Tang?"
Jiang Yi's voice sounded a little anxious.
Zuo Lingquan didn't expect Jiang Yi to come here, so he quickly said:
"Jiang Yi?"
"Left...eh?"
Within two words, a figure jumped over from the courtyard wall.
Jiang Yi was wearing a black and red palace skirt, but outside she was wearing a policeman-style raincoat and hat, and most of her body was wet. She climbed over the wall and looked up, and found Zuo Lingquan standing under the eaves without a robe; Tang Jingxuan was embarrassed in his robe, and his hair was wet and stuck to his face, with tears hanging down.
Because the fire just now was too scary, Jiang Yi understood at this time and was not jealous. She just said strangely:
"Why are you here?"
Zuo Lingquan waved for Jiang Yi to come over, stood under the eaves, and explained:
"Just now, the moon was dim in Qihuang Valley, but it was raining heavily here, so I ran over to see what was going on outside?"
Jiang Yi also noticed that the rain was strange, but it put out the fire, so she could only feel lucky:
"Fortunately, it rained heavily. There was a big fire more than 20 years ago, and the people had experience, so they ran away as soon as the fire started, and the fire was put out quickly. No one died, but many were injured."
Jiang Yi came to the two of them, looked at Tang Jingxun, and found no damage, then said:
"Just now, I was busy asking officials to put out the fire, and I didn't pay attention to this side. After I was done, I remembered Miss Tang. Fortunately, she is safe and sound."
Zuo Lingquan understood that Jiang Yi was concerned about his relatives and friends, and smiled gently:
"Thoughtful."
When Tang Jingxun heard "asking officials to put out the fire", and thought about the relationship between Jiang Yi and Zuo Lingquan, she naturally understood who the young lady in front of her was. Thinking of the quarrel with Jiang Yi in the past and saying that Jiang Yi had a bad temper, Tang Jingxun was a little panicked and whispered:
"The girl turned out to be the princess... um... last time..."
Jiang Yi didn't care about these details, just said: "It's good that you're fine." She looked at Tang Jingxun's appearance and turned her head and said:
"I have a house nearby, which has been empty for many years. Let's settle there first."
Jiang Yi is the eldest princess. The Jiang royal family's assets are all over the capital, so it's normal to have a house.
Zuo Lingquan didn't say much, helped to take Tang Jingxun's jewelry box, and walked into the rain.
The rainstorm was too heavy and there was no sign of stopping in a short time. It was obviously a torture to walk slowly.
Jiang Yi didn't ask Tang Jingxun's opinion. He raised his hand and carried Tang Jingxun on his shoulders, and flew onto the eaves, scaring the little bird balls.
Tang Jingxun's eyes were stunned. He didn't expect the princess of the dynasty to be so fierce. She couldn't resist, so she just lay on his shoulder and said dizzily:
"Princess, put me down, I'll walk by myself..."
Pah
A crisp sound came from the rain.
Zuo Lingquan stumbled, thinking that the sound was very elastic. He turned around with a look of surprise.
Jiang Yi was very vindictive. She would not embarrass Tang Jingxun in public, but she would still take revenge in private. She slapped Tang Jingxun on the buttocks and said in a deep voice:
"Be honest."
Tang Jingxun's clothes were soaked and stuck to her body. Jiang Yi's hand was strong, and her back was numb from the slap.
Tang Jingxun was a hot-tempered woman, and she was never a woman who could compromise. This can be seen from the fact that she was alone and wanted to fight to the death with the Chen family.
Suddenly being slapped, and the slap was so heavy, Tang Jingxun screamed "Ah~" and instinctively glared:
"You bitch... cough, princess you..."
Jiang Yi didn't dare to deal with Zuo Lingquan, and she didn't dare to deal with a little drunkard? She put on a majestic look and said in a deep voice:
"If you say something rude again, do you believe that I will drag you out and beat you with a stick?"
"I..."
Tang Jingxun was aggrieved and anxious, and didn't dare to talk back, so she could only look at Zuo Lingquan.
Zuo Lingquan knew that Jiang Yi had no ill intentions, and it was not easy to interrupt, so he could only smile:
"The rain is too heavy, let's go quickly, so as not to catch a cold."
Jiang Yi was able to bully Tang Jingxun, and Zuo Lingquan didn't dare to protect her, and she felt a little refreshed in her heart. She snorted lightly and crossed the house with a few big steps.
Tang Jingxun was controlled by others and had no one to rely on. The other party was a princess, and Xiao Zuo didn't speak for her. What else could she do except endure it?
She pursed her lips and could only rub the coal-like balls to vent her anger.
"Ji?"
