The Zhu family's house was burned down. The fire was so big and the noise so loud that it alarmed the entire village.

Unfortunately, the fire was too big, and even if the villagers wanted to help, it was useless and they could not put out the fire at all.

Fortunately, everyone in the village has their own yard, so it didn't affect other families. The only family that suffered losses was the Zhu family.

Zhu Mingshan took Zhu Dagui to the town government office to report early in the morning.

The old donkey man was unwilling to give them a ride, so the two of them had to walk to the town. When they were exhausted, they met Su Liuer, who was riding a donkey cart out of the village and heading to the town.

The two of them immediately glared at each other.

Su Liu'er, who had been planning to ignore the two, rolled her eyes at them and said, "Why are you glaring at me? I wasn't the one who burned your house yesterday. Don't try to make me take the blame again, or you'll get your comeuppance again."

If someone set your house on fire out of the blue, wouldn't that be retribution? Who knows, maybe they're seeking revenge for something they've offended in the past.

"You!" Zhu Mingshan was so angry that he pointed at Su Liuer and wanted to scold her, but he didn't dare.

Zhu Dafu is still lying there and can’t get up!

Zhu Mingshan stood there in a quandary, his face flushed red.

Su Liuer curled her lips in contempt and said to the old man, "Let's go quickly. Hongan is in a hurry to go to class."

"Okay!" The old donkey man flicked the whip in his hand lightly, and the donkey cart sped up.

The dust from the road blew towards the faces of the two people from the Zhu family, making them look even more embarrassed and dusty.

"Bah! Bah! Bah! This vicious woman! She shall die a horrible death!" Zhu Dagui cursed.

Zhu Mingshan glared at him in embarrassment and said, "Everyone's gone, what's the point of talking nonsense!"

"Then didn't you dare to scold her just now? You only scolded me!" Zhu Dagui yelled in grievance and anger.

"How are you talking to your father like that?!" Zhu Mingshan was already feeling very aggrieved by Su Liuer, and he became even more furious when his own son started yelling at him.

But Zhu Dagui is no longer afraid of him. Last night the whole family was discussing dividing the family property!

If it weren’t for this sudden fire, the whole family would have been divided!

"Was I wrong? You are a coward! If you were really capable, would you let Su Liuer bully our whole family like this? It's because you, the head of the family, are useless! You're reporting to the police only after your house is burned down? What's the point of reporting to the police?"

Zhu Mingshan pointed at Zhu Dagui and was so angry that he couldn't speak. Zhu Dagui continued to say:

"Anyway, everything at home is gone now, burned down. It's perfect! Let's split up! If you want to report it to the authorities, go ahead and do it yourself!"

"Come back, you bastard!"

Zhu Dagui walked towards Shangyou Village without looking back, and ignored Zhu Mingshan's calls behind him. In the end, Zhu Mingshan had to limp to the town alone on crutches to report to the police.

Captain Zhang handled the matter impartially and took his men to Shangyou Village for an on-site investigation and filed a case.

"We will investigate this matter and will inform you when we have any information."

Zhu Mingshan grabbed Captain Zhang and asked, "What about our stuff?"

"Since you can't explain who set fire to your house, we can't arrest them. Naturally, no one will compensate you for your losses if we can't catch them. We will investigate according to your description. Just wait for news at home." Captain Zhang said in a businesslike manner.

Captain Zhang came with his men and left again quickly, like a gust of wind, without changing anything.

The Zhu family sat outside the ruins, all with sad faces. They had searched carefully, but could not find any silver, not even a single copper coin!

It's all burned up! Not even a slag is left!

"This must be a demonic fire! It's a demonic fire! I'm going to fight the demon girl to the death!" Zhu Lin suddenly stood up from the ground and staggered out of the yard.
