A girl from the second room of the Gu family. She seems to be only eleven years old?
She is still a child who has not yet reached menstruation!
He was worse than an animal. Wen Xi picked up a pillow and hit the dead Zhao San with it.
I knew Zhao Sanse, but I only knew him for having affairs with concubines and maids who came to me voluntarily. I never thought that today he would force a teenager to do it.
No wonder he kept trying to coax that other yamen runner to go to the Red Mansion today! He even paid for it out of his own pocket.
The other party also knows his character, so they just go with the flow and change their taste.
It turns out that this beast had been planning this for a long time!
Wen Xi walked up to Ye Erniang and looked up and said:
"He deserves to die. It's not your fault. It's just that your method was indeed too extreme. We can only find a way to remedy the situation."
Ye Erniang gave Wen Xi a strange look! This girl actually used the word "we." She didn't kill the person, so why was she joining in the fun?
Wen Xi took Ye Erniang's knife, wiped the blood on Zhao San's body and returned it to her.
He took out the tinder from the coffin through his sleeve.
She didn't explain why she carried this thing with her, because there was no way to explain it, maybe it was just a personal hobby!
Looking back at Ye Erniang:
"Burn it! The little girl probably doesn't want her family to see her like this. Let's leave her some dignity in the end!"
He added, "As soon as I burn them, we will hurry back so that no one can discover us."
As he spoke, he walked forward, but suddenly wanted to pause, touched Zhao San's waist, and put it in his arms.
Wow, such a big bag of silver, it seems like he has been greedy for a lot.
Then, as if belatedly remembering something, he turned around and looked back. He seemed to see Ye Erniang's mouth twitching, and she looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"Ahem, ahem... tomorrow, let's split it in half, hehe..."
He touched his nose again unnaturally and smiled weakly. He felt a little embarrassed to be collecting corpses in front of others. Especially in front of a professional whose job it was to collect corpses.
Ye Erniang rolled her eyes at her:
"I don't want yours. Hurry, it's almost dawn."
"Oh, oh, okay, right away."
As a result, I opened the lid of the fire starter and fiddled with it for a long time, but there was no response.
Then he looked at Ye Erniang for help, because he had never used this thing before!
Ye Erniang came over, picked it up, looked at it, and threw it back to her:
"It's new, it's not lit, it can't be blown."
"Ah? What should I do then?"
Ye Erniang walked over to the table, picked up the candlestick and threw it on the bed. The cloth caught fire when it came into contact with the flame.
Wen Xi slapped her forehead. With such a bright light, was she blind? She must have woken up in the middle of the night with half her brain in her pocket.
Seeing the fire starting, Wen Xi quickly pulled Ye Er Niang out, then kindly closed the door, waved to Ye Er Niang, and ran towards his own room.
Ye Erniang watched Wen Xi enter the house before quietly returning to her and Du Mei's room.
Just after lying down for a while, I heard someone shouting:
"Fire! Fire!"
When Wen Xi rushed out, everyone had already put out the fire.
Wen Xi's eyes darted around, searching for Ye Erniang in the crowd. Their eyes met by chance.
Wen Xi immediately touched the bridge of his nose, feeling guilty, and pretended to look away. This made Ye Erniang speechless. She thought, "You look so guilty, are you afraid that others don't know you have a problem?"
The people in the house had been burned beyond recognition, but everyone knew that one of them was Zhao San. As for the other, no one knew, but it was definitely a woman.
Ye Erniang and Du Mei decided to leave one person here while the other went to find the yamen runner who had spent the night outside.
Seeing that it was almost dawn, no one wanted to sleep anymore. They all stood in the yard chatting and gossiping about who the woman was and why the fire had started for no apparent reason.
When the yamen runner was found, he almost fell to his knees when he saw the scene before him. He couldn't stop regretting it. This time, things were really bad!
The scene was handled very cleanly, and even after calling the local government, they couldn't find anything. They just said that the candlestick might have been accidentally knocked over.
Once this matter was made public, this dirty deal among exiled prisoners was torn off like a fig leaf.
Now the only male yamen runner no longer longs to return to the capital. It is no longer the harbor he longed for, but a guillotine!
But the destination is right in front of me. If I don’t go back, my parents and relatives will be in trouble.
