"Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao, are you alright? How did it catch fire? Are you hurt?" Du Xiuyun pushed through the crowd and rushed in.
She just threw on some clothes haphazardly, her hair disheveled, and her face full of anxiety.
When she heard that her son's house had caught fire, her heart was in her throat.
I sprinted over here.
Even Fu Yifei couldn't catch up with her.
At this moment, she didn't care about anything else and stepped forward to bump into Liu Shi, who was standing in front of Su Jiaojiao.
Then he pressed down on Su Jiaojiao's shoulders and looked her up and down.
Du Xiuyun's hand, which was pressing on her shoulder, was trembling uncontrollably.
It really scared her to death.
She now treats Su Jiaojiao like her own daughter.
It's truly unacceptable that something happened to her.
Fu Yifei ran over at this moment and pushed Liu Shi, who was in the way, aside: "Is Jiaojiao alright? How could she have caught fire?"
He was terrified.
His son is out there risking his life; if they can't protect their daughter-in-law at home, they might as well be dead.
"Mom, Dad, don't worry, I'm fine. It was the kind neighbors who helped put out the fire." Su Jiaojiao felt a warmth in her heart.
The original owner's biological mother was worse than an animal, and her biological father was blind, so they can be ignored.
But Fu Yifei and Du Xiuyun, her in-laws, treated her much better than her own parents.
She also regarded them as her own parents.
He quickly offered words of comfort.
"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright." Fu Yifei then turned around and bowed to everyone in the courtyard. "Thank you for helping to put out the fire, thank you for protecting Jiaojiao like this."
The soldiers and their wives quickly waved their hands and said no need.
We are unworthy to have Chief Fu bow to them.
The unpleasantness caused by Liu Shi's instigation has largely dissipated.
"Mom, Dad, we can't finish all the vegetables in my yard, so let's share some with everyone." Su Jiaojiao was deeply moved. "We also have some candy and pastries that we bought in the provincial capital yesterday, so let's share them all to thank everyone for saving our lives."
She deliberately used the word "save life".
In that case, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to give them food and candy.
Hearing this, Fu Yifei and Du Xiuyun wholeheartedly agreed.
Vegetables and candies can be bought again.
This was indeed a life-saving grace.
Then, without Su Jiaojiao having to do anything, Fu Yifei and Du Xiuyun forcibly distributed the food and candy to everyone.
The portion size is quite generous.
The soldiers and their wives who contributed their efforts felt even more that the Fu family was good and of noble character.
"Hey, Commander Liu, we only have enough supplies, we're out of them, you won't mind, will you?" Su Jiaojiao looked at Liu Shi, "I knew you cared about the people and were the most righteous, coming to help put out the fire in the middle of the night."
This made Liu Shi both angry and annoyed.
And they were speechless.
The perfectly good plan has fallen through.
"Alright, Xiuyun, Jingchen isn't home, and Jiaojiao is scared all alone. Why don't you stay and keep her company?" Fu Yifei said to his wife, still feeling a bit shaken.
Du Xiuyun naturally wouldn't object: "Okay, I'll stay here, you can go back."
Fu Yifei had already noticed that something was wrong with Liu Shi.
He was furious.
This person has absolutely no bottom line.
We really can't keep them.
At that point, with multiple charges against him, he could easily be sent to a military court and spend the rest of his life in prison.
Thinking it over, Fu Yifei pulled Liu Shi out of the courtyard.
Du Xiuyun quickly locked the courtyard gate.
I went to take another look at the woodpile.
"This must have been started intentionally." Du Xiuyun was furious. "If I find out which bastard it was, I'll skin him alive."
They actually bullied their family like this.
Su Jiaojiao also shone her flashlight on it and looked around.
She was certain that Liu Shi set the fire.
This person wanted to take advantage of Fu Jingchen's absence and lure her out by setting a fire.
Then, take advantage of the chaos to snatch her jade pendant.
They'll stop at nothing.
"Let's investigate this thoroughly when Jingchen comes back." Su Jiaojiao hugged her mother-in-law Du Xiuyun's arm. "Mom, you have to go to work tomorrow. Let's go to sleep first. The thief won't dare to come again."
Provincial capital railway station.
Fu Jingchen took down a spy with a single shot.
The soldiers who came with him reacted a little too slowly and were attacked from both sides by the two agents.
Upon seeing this, Fu Jingchen quickly stepped forward to protect him.
