Chapter 31: Fire



Lin Siqing understood some of it, but not completely.

She didn't want her precious daughter to be too stressed, so she took Yangyang for a walk in the yard to distract her.

Shang Yangyang was successfully distracted.

Her idea is that if you can’t figure something out, just put it aside and think about it. Being happy is what’s more important.

As the night grew darker, Lin Siqing had already carried Shang Yangyang back to the room to rest.

"Why is my right eyelid twitching?" Lin Siqing reached out and pressed her eyelid, but it still twitched uncontrollably.

Shang Yangyang had already fallen asleep. She didn't want to wake her up, so she went to bed and fell asleep next to her.

There was a commotion in the yard. "Mom~"

"Boss, wake up." Two little ghosts stood in front of the bed.

Shang Yangyang woke up from a deep sleep and saw flames rising into the sky outside.

"Let me go, I want to go in and save my mother." Shang Qing'an shouted.

"Sir, please don't go in. Let's go in and rescue the Madam General."

Shang Qian'an's voice came. "And my eldest brother. He's in the room next to mother and the others."

There was a commotion in the courtyard.

Shang Yangyang in the room could only wave his arms and legs in the air and could not touch Lin Siqing at all.

[Mother, mother, please wake up. ]

Lin Siqing, who was sleeping, heard the sound. She slowly opened her eyes, and at this moment a person covered in weeds rushed in through the window.

"Who are you?"

Lin Siqing picked up Shang Yangyang and ran to the door, but the fire was right outside the door and she couldn't open the door.

[Oh my god, this can’t be the legendary wild man.] Shang Yangyang looked at the weed man in front of him with sparkling eyes.

"I'm far away..."

The noise outside was too loud and Lin Siqing couldn't hear clearly.

"Don't come over here."

Lin Siqing didn't hear it clearly, but Shang Yangyang did.

[This savage actually said he was my father. My father is so handsome and suave, how could he be a savage? He really took Yangyang for a fool. ]

The savage that Shang Yangyang mentioned paused, but the fire outside the door did not allow him to think too much, so he stepped forward and hugged Lin Siqing.

This time Lin Siqing did not struggle. She heard Shang Yangyang's inner voice just as the man was holding them and jumping out of the rear window.

Lin Siqing reached out and wiped the dirty face of the man in front of her. "Yuanshan, wuwuwu."

"Siqing, don't cry. It's my fault. It's my fault."

Shang Yangyang opened his mouth wide, staring with eyes wide open. [It's really my father. Is my father wandering around? ]

【Daddy has become a beggar.】

[My family is not going to go bankrupt. ]

[From now on, I will be the only one who can support my father and mother. ]

【At such a young age, I have such a heavy burden. 】

"Cough cough cough~" Shang Yuanshan coughed lightly.

Lin Siqing trembled all over when she thought of the unconscious Shang Yanqing. . "Yuanshan, Yanqing...Yanqing is in the next room, go save him."

Shang Yuanshan helped Lin Siqing steady herself. "Siqing, go around here to the front yard and keep an eye on the other two brats."

"good."

Shang Yuanshan broke the window next door and went in.

Lin Siqing picked up Shang Yangyang and went to the front to find someone for help. Just when she was halfway there, she met Shang Qingan who came with some people.

"Hurry up and go to the back window. The general has gone to rescue Yan Qing. Go and help."

Lin Siqing lost her balance, luckily Shang Qingan stepped forward and supported her.

Shang Qian'an took over Shang Yangyang.

Shang Yangyang suddenly frowned. [There is someone nearby.]

Shang Qing'an looked around and didn't see anyone.

Shang Yangyang waved her hand and two younger brothers came over.

[Go look to the southwest. If you find someone sneaking around, help me teach him a lesson.]

The two ghost brothers took the order and left.

[I have fallen. In the past, even when I was sleeping, I would still leave a trace of soul power to pay attention to the outside world.]

[But since I was reincarnated into a merchant, I have fallen, alas~]

【I need to reflect.】

[But why would someone come to the house and set fire? This aura shouldn't be from Old Lady Shang and her group.]

When Lin Siqing heard that someone had set the fire on purpose, she also realized something was wrong.

When I thought about Shang Yuanshan's sudden return, something must have happened in Yangcheng, but why would he set fire to them?

Before Lin Siqing could think clearly, she saw a group of people running over here.

Shuang Ning first took the cloak and put it on Lin Siqing. "Madam, I'm sorry. I slept too soundly. If someone hadn't woken me up, I wouldn't have known that the yard was on fire."

Shuang Ning and Nanny Wu knelt on the ground.

"It's okay, get up quickly."

Shang Ningxia and He Yunyu also ran over.

"Siqing, you are not hurt, right?"

"It's okay, why are there so many people?"

"We just heard someone shouting on the street that the General's Mansion was on fire and they were looking for help to put out the fire, so we brought people over here."

Lin Siqing looked into the distance, where people from various mansions had gathered, and Prime Minister Lin and Duke Shang were directing people to put out the fire.

When they saw Lin Siqing, they hurried over.

Lin Siqing looked at Shang Qingan standing beside her. "How long has it been since the fire was discovered?"

"Mother, about a quarter of a second."

Lin Siqing looked at Prime Minister Lin who was walking over. "It only took Dad a moment to discover the fire, and he was able to get so many people here."

Prime Minister Lin and Duke Shang discovered the problem, which was that before the fire started, someone was already outside asking for help.

The arsonist didn't want to kill Siqing and the others, so he wanted to see whether Shang Yuanshan was in the mansion?

The two old foxes looked at each other.

"Jingfan sent everyone away."

Lin Siqing stopped him and said, "You don't have to chase him away."

"Siqing, this..."

Duke Shang interrupted Prime Minister Lin.

"Old Lin, you are old and your eyesight is not good, just listen to Siqing."

"..." Prime Minister Lin saw Lin Siqing's mouth curled up, and he didn't say anything more.

"Old Shang, you are old."

Prime Minister Lin looked at Lin Jingfan who was standing still. "What are you looking at? Why don't you show your scoundrel attitude and chase people away?"

"Yes, father."

Shang Yangyang burst into a chuckle, and Shang Qingan and the others couldn't hold back their laughter.

[My uncle was used as a gun by my grandfather. ]

Lin Jingfan, who was walking forward with great momentum, lost his balance when he heard this and almost fell down.

At this time, he suspected that he was not his biological son.

Lin Jingfan didn't want to think too much. He wanted to protect his sister and little niece.

Lin Jingfan walked forward in a frivolous manner. "Everyone, go away."

"Young Master Lin, we are here to help put out the fire."

"Ah? You're so awesome that you come to put out a fire with bare hands?"

"this..."

"Everyone, you should learn from this. Look, when you come to put out a fire, you have to bring weapons. That's how you put out a fire."

Everyone looked towards the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Duke's Mansion, Minister Li's Mansion and other mansions. They were all people who were on good terms with Shang Yuanshan and brought with them. They were the ones who were really helping the General's Mansion to put out the fire.

"You should go back and practice. If your house catches fire someday, you won't know how to put it out."

"Young Master Lin, you..."

After hearing what Lin Jingfan said, several onlookers turned around and left.

But some people did not leave.

"Young Master Lin, even though we don't have any tools, we can still help."

"Yes, there is strength in numbers."
