I became the villain's deceased wife

Chapter 61 Someone deliberately set the fire

The Cheng family's wedding banquet was lively and exciting. The new son-in-law was dressed neatly and accompanied his father-in-law to greet guests at the door. He was dignified, humble and polite, and received unanimous praise from the guests.

According to custom, the bride cannot go out to meet guests before getting married, so although today is Cheng Shuangshuang's engagement party, the hustle and bustle outside has nothing to do with her.

When Song Tian went to see her in her boudoir after paying her respects, the little girl was concentrating on embroidering her veil.

"You are quite calm."

Song Tian looked at her veil. After Liu's guidance, Cheng Shuangshuang's embroidery skills improved a lot, and the intertwined branches she embroidered were very exquisite.

Cheng Shuangshuang smiled shyly:

"Mother said that girls should be reserved."

Anyway, she has already seen her future husband and is very satisfied with him, so there is nothing to worry about.

"Sister Tian, ​​is it a good idea to get married?

My mother said that after I married into the He family, I would be the mistress of the household and would have to manage the public accounts, and I would also have to respect my parents-in-law and not make them unhappy.

You must also be considerate to your husband and not let him dislike you.

When I have a child, I will also take a concubine for my husband. I cannot bear the name of being jealous..."

Thinking about the future, Cheng Shuangshuang put down the embroidery frame, her face full of worry.

Although her husband is good, life after marriage may not be as she wishes. Whenever she thinks of this, she doesn't want to get married.

Song Tian sighed.

Being a woman has never been easy, and this was even more so for women in ancient times.

“People only live in this world for a few short decades, so whether you are at home or married, you must find ways to make yourself feel more comfortable.

We have to go through this journey anyway, and it is useless to worry about it now. We can only deal with it as it comes."

She didn't know what to say, and could only advise people to "live in the present."

After the banquet, Song Tian accompanied Liu to the market and bought some daily necessities.

This was Haoer’s first time shopping since coming to Xiejia Village. He looked around excitedly and couldn’t let go of the snacks and gadgets he had never seen before.

Liu also wanted to see more, but she also reminded Hao'er not to buy too many things because it was not easy for her sister-in-law to make money.

"It's okay, Mom. It's a rare opportunity for him to come out, so don't restrict him too much."

Although Tiantian's restaurant has only been open for more than ten days, it has already started to make a profit. Song Tian feels that there is no need to let the child suffer.

The group spent the entire afternoon shopping, and when it was almost dark, they returned home with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

But before they reached the entrance of the alley, they saw thick smoke billowing from the direction of the Xie family's courtyard, and a familiar tenant farmer shouted at them in panic:

"Sister Liu, go back and check, your house is on fire!"

Haoer immediately became nervous, scattered the snacks and toys in his hands all over the floor, and yelled:

"pioneer!"

Then he ran towards the courtyard like flying.

"Hao'er, be careful!"

Liu screamed in fear.

Xie Yunzhe quickly pushed the thing in his hand to Song Tian beside him and chased out.

Song Tian glanced at Liu and helped her walk quickly forward.

"Don't worry, mom. The most important thing is that the person is fine."

Why did this fire suddenly break out for no reason?

By this time it was already dark and the tenant farmers living nearby had returned. When they saw the fire, they brought wooden buckets and basins of water to put out the flames.

However, the Xie family courtyard had been burned through, leaving only the black door frame and brick walls, and the roof had collapsed.

"Xie Xiaoge, the fire had already been burning for some time when we came back, and it was too late to put it out."

Brother Liao, who was the first to discover the fire, said with regret on his face.

“Vanguard, Vanguard!”

Hao'er didn't find the pioneer and was still calling out loudly.

"Thank you, Brother Liao. When did you discover the fire?"

When Song Tian went out today, she specially checked the bottom of the stove. There was no way there was any residual fire. Besides, she had lunch at Cheng's house, and there was no fire at home.

This fire is really rare.

Brother Liao wiped the sweat from his forehead and recalled:

"By the way, I have to thank your dog.

Our family was working in the fields when it suddenly ran over and started barking at Shuisheng.

Shuisheng recognized it and thought it was strange, so he followed it back to have a look, and then he found that it was your house that had found fire. "

Shuisheng is Brother Liao’s younger brother, and he often plays with Haoer.

Haoer came over immediately:

"Brother Liao, have you seen my Vanguard? Where is it now?"

There was a puppy hole on the courtyard wall, and Xianfeng was not on a leash, so Haoer thought it would be fine.

But now that he can't find the dog, he is still very worried.

Before Brother Liao could say anything, a little boy in rough clothes was already shouting:

"Xie Yunhao, the vanguard is here!"

The little yellow dog in his arms had already broken free from his restraints and was running towards Haoer, barking softly.

"pioneer!"

Hao'er was about to cry. He ran over, hugged Xianfeng, and put its head into the crook of his neck:

"I'm so glad you're okay!"

When the tenants saw that the owner had returned and the fire in the yard had burned out, they all said goodbye.

We were discussing along the way how could a fire suddenly break out?

"Have you ever felt that ever since this family moved in, something has been happening every now and then?"

Someone whispered.

His companion nodded immediately:

"You know what, it seems to be true. First the child fell into the water after climbing a tree, then the woman tripped and nearly died, and now there's a fire..."

The man who spoke earlier shook his head, looking mysterious:

"What do you think? Could it be that his family is unlucky? Otherwise, why would they be so unlucky?"

Song Tian looked at the mess in the yard, ignored the gossip, and asked Xie Yunzhe:

"What do you think?"

Xie Yunzhe had a gloomy face, just like when Song Tian just came through and saw him.

"Someone deliberately set the fire."

he said affirmatively.

Although the weather is hot now, it rained not long ago and there is a pond at the door. It is not dry, and it is impossible that it is caused by residual fire.

Song Tian also thinks so:

"Tell me, who could it be?"

She was thinking of Song Jiao and Xie Yao, but how could two girls like them do something like arson?

Xie Yunzhe remained silent.

It’s hard to say who it is.

After all, the Xie family members didn't like their family, and he had gotten into trouble with such a troublesome person...

"Let's take a look around first."

At this time, Xie Bosheng and his wife also rushed over after hearing the news and were asking Liu about what had happened.

The two men walked around the yard.

Sure enough, footprints were found behind the house!

Judging from the size of the body, it belonged to a man. He walked to the cobblestone road not far away and then disappeared.

There was a pool of black sticky liquid next to the footprint. Xie Yunzhe stretched out his finger, dipped a little and smelled it.

"It's kerosene!"

He said.

At this moment, the youngest son of the clan leader hurried over from the other end of the stone road. Seeing Xie Yunzhe, he called out to him:

"Brother Yunzhe, my father and the elders invite you to the meeting hall."

Xie Yunzhe frowned.

This stone road leads to the Xie Family Ancestral Hall.

The person who set the fire was indeed from the Xie family.
