More importantly, it needs to be sealed.
But Bang Geng doesn't understand any of this; he just imitates what others do.
They thought they were doing a great job, but it was all bullshit.
Sha Zhu and Xiao Yun, who had narrowly escaped death, lay on the ground, panting heavily.
That was truly a narrow escape from death. Shazhu felt completely powerless and collapsed to the ground.
However, Sha Zhu soon saw the people from the courtyard carrying all sorts of water containers arriving at his doorstep.
When everyone saw Sha Zhu and his family lying on the ground, they immediately asked the three people on the ground, "I said,
Is this some kind of joke? Where's the fire? Seriously, how can you joke around with fire like that?
"Yeah, Sha Zhu, you've gone too far."
"Yes, silly Zhu, this is no joke."
Sha Zhu was immediately stunned by the accusations from the crowd, and he forced himself to stand up.
He looked towards his own home.
There was definitely a fire in my house, but there wasn't a single flame or smoke.
Sha Zhu was also a bit confused; his stove had really exploded and caught fire just now.
Once Sha Zhu stood up, everyone could finally see his face clearly; it was completely black.
That way, you can see the outline of Shazhu's face clearly.
Sha Zhu was also covered in black soot.
Seeing Sha Zhu's reaction, everyone immediately teased him, "Sha Zhu, what were you doing just now?"
Playing with the fire, huh? Hahaha!
"What a tragedy!" Yan Bugui exclaimed, seeing the table full of delicious food in Sha Zhu's room covered in dust.
She immediately scolded Sha Zhu with a pained expression. So much good food, it would be so much better if it were for her!
If you're not going to eat it, don't waste it. If you don't want it, give it to me.
When everyone heard Yan Bugui say this, they all looked towards Sha Zhu's house.
Huh? All the people saw was that the table full of delicious food in Sha Zhu's house was now covered in black ash.
Everyone was dumbfounded. Although it was the New Year, the food at Sha Zhu's house was just too good.
I've never eaten so many dishes in my entire life.
Everyone looked at the ruined vegetables and secretly chuckled to themselves, thinking, "I can't eat any of these."
Sha Zhu won't get any either, that's good, that's fair.
After the danger has passed, the common occurrence in a courtyard house is that some people are angry while others are laughing at them.
After all, He Yushui had just shouted that there was a fire, and the courtyard house was a wooden building.
If a fire breaks out in one house and is left unattended, the entire courtyard will likely be destroyed.
If He Yushui were to shout that there were bad guys and that someone was robbing someone, I bet everyone in the courtyard would be in trouble.
They would just close the doors and windows and peek into the yard.
Sha Zhu was also dumbfounded. Could it have really been a hallucination?
But the grime on me and Xiaoyun couldn't be faked.
Even my own room was covered in dust.
"Hey, Pillar, your chimney's in this state, and you're still using it? You're really something!"
Yan Bugui looked at the bulging chimney in Sha Zhu's house and joked.
"Hey, Sha Zhu, it's not that I'm criticizing you as an elder, but you're a cook, after all."
How come you can't even install a chimney? Look at this table full of food!
"It's all ruined, what a tragedy!" Yan Bugui scolded Sha Zhu with a pained expression.
Sha Zhu, his face dark with anger, glared at Yan Bugui, intending to directly confront him.
But then he remembered that the person had come to rescue him, so he forced himself to suppress his anger.
He carefully observed his own chimney and stove.
But He Yushui couldn't help herself and said directly to Yan Bugui, "Uncle Yan,"
This really isn't my brother's fault; someone deliberately sabotaged this. Do you guys even know that?
When I first arrived, my brother's door was locked from the inside with a wire.
This is an attempt to kill our whole family!
When everyone heard He Yushui say this, their mouths dropped open in astonishment.
Really? There's actually such a thing? What kind of deep-seated hatred or grudge could this be?
They actually did something so heinous and immoral.
Upon hearing He Yushui's words, Yan Bugui walked directly to the chimney, his nose twitching.
I gently sniffed the smell coming from the chimney, and sure enough, it was just as I had thought.
Yan Bugui sighed: "Shazhu, come and smell this, what does it smell like?"
Upon hearing Yan Bugui's words, Sha Zhu immediately walked over. What was this? That familiar smell of gunpowder.
Sha Zhu and Yan Bugui exchanged a glance, and seeing Yan Bugui nod,
Sha Zhu could no longer contain his anger; he had finally found a wife.
This is the first meal I've ever cooked for my wife!
This is the first New Year I'm spending with my wife! How dare you?!
Xiaoyun coldly observed all of this, only feeling that this courtyard was truly chaotic, even more chaotic than she had imagined.
Everyone curiously walked up to the chimney and smelled it, immediately understanding what was going on.
Sha Zhu is being retaliated against.
They actually threw firecrackers into Sha Zhu's chimney! Good heavens, judging by the shape of the chimney...
Those firecrackers were quite powerful; they even locked Sha Zhu's door from the outside.
This is a plan to either blow up Sha Zhu or burn him to death.
A chill ran down everyone's spine. Who could be so cruel?
Yan Bugui frowned slightly: "I've been at the entrance of our courtyard house the whole time, and I haven't seen any outsiders come in."
Everyone immediately understood Yan Bugui's meaning: it meant that the people in their courtyard had done the work.
Someone in the crowd suddenly said, "I think I just saw Bang Geng holding something."
They threw it at Sha Zhu's chimney, and then not only did flames spew from it, but white smoke also billowed from the house.
"Bang Geng!!" Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and his face turned rather ugly.
