Ji Miaomiao nodded repeatedly, her obedient appearance was very convincing at first glance.

Qing'er didn't dare to delay any longer, for fear that something would happen and delay the time, so she hurried out.

After going out, she didn't find anything unusual outside, but Qing'er was cautious by nature, so after thinking about it, she went to the door of Mrs. Hou.

Mrs. Lao Hou always had a confidant, a nanny, guarding her door. At this moment, the nanny was a little confused:

Why did Qing'er come here?

But on the surface, he still asked her what was wrong in a good voice.

Mammy was worried that the young lady Qing'er was serving was crying or had some request.

Qing'er hesitated for a moment and then said: "Mommy, do you smell anything strange?"

Grandma was confused.

weird smell?

She shook her head subconsciously.

Of course she didn't smell it. If she had smelled it, she wouldn't be able to stay here obediently:

"No."

Qing'er gritted her teeth and said, "I smelled the smell of burning wood in the side room next to me. I was worried that there was something wrong with the old lady, so I came here to have a look."

The old lady’s yard was lightly decorated with ulterior motives.

The side room is not far from the main room, so if the smell comes from the room, it will be smelled more clearly in the side room than outside.

Grandma has served the old lady here for most of her life, what else does she not understand?

Thinking of this, her face suddenly turned ugly.

For a moment, he didn't care what to say to Qing'er, so he turned around and opened the door. After opening the door, when they saw the scene inside, their expressions changed greatly.

I saw the candle in the outer room was knocked down, I don't know why.

But luckily, I was lucky, the candle on the table was poured, and there happened to be no flammable objects around the candle, only the table underneath.

There are a lot of candle tears dripping on the table. Now these candle tears are burning and igniting the wood underneath, causing the peculiar smell to float out.

Although the soldiers saw no danger, if they hadn't discovered it, the curtain would be right next to the table when it burned to the edge!

Both Qing'er and Mammy knew that if there was no discovery, the two of them would be so frightened that cold sweat would instantly run down their backs.

"Mommy, I'm going to ask someone to come in and clean it up."

After Qing'er finished speaking, she went out and called someone. A group of people were cleaning up outside. It was a coincidence that while they were cleaning up, they bumped into Mrs. Hou coming in.

Mrs. Hou was in high spirits today and spent a lot of time playing in the garden with the little ones at home, so she felt sleepy very early and went to bed earlier than usual.

So when Mrs. Hou came over, she thought her mother-in-law had not rested yet. Unexpectedly, when she came over, she happened to encounter a group of people chattering and playing with something in the outer room.

There was still some firelight.

She was immediately frightened and asked sternly outside:

"What are you doing?"

She thought that these servants did not abide by their duties, were negligent in their duties, and were playing tricks on them.

You know, basically everything in this yard is made of wood. If water leaks out, the consequences will be disastrous.

Before the slaves responded, she had secretly made up her mind to punish these ignorant slaves.

Unexpectedly, when these servants turned their heads and saw her, not only did they not panic at all, but they actually looked happy and happy in their eyes.

She seemed to be glad and happy that she came over, which made Madam Hou even confused.

"Madam, there is almost water in the old lady's yard."

After a while, grandma stood up and said with a gloomy face.

In the corner, a maid secretly looked at the young maid, who lowered her head in fear.

It was she who placed the things in the yard tonight, and the candles would not fall down for no reason. There was only one result - she had no intention when placing them.

This is all her responsibility.

Fortunately, this matter was discovered today. If it had not been discovered, she could not imagine what her ending would be.

I'm afraid he will be beaten to death by his master's family in a random fight, right?

No! Beating him to death with a stick is not enough to quell the anger of the master's family, and it might even involve his parents, younger brothers and sisters.

The maid felt so remorseful that her intestines were almost green. If she had known that something like this would happen today, she would not have been so careless.

She heard something when she closed the door, but she was naive and didn't consider that it was a candle falling down, and thought it was the sound of something hitting something after closing the door.

"What?" Mrs. Hou's face turned ugly when she heard that her mother-in-law's yard was almost flooded.

Neither my husband nor my father-in-law are at home tonight. If something happens to my mother-in-law, she won't know how to explain it when they come back!

At this moment, not only this group of minions, but Madam Hou's heart was also full of joy.

But what followed was full of fear and anger.

"What on earth happened? How could you almost get away with it for no reason?"

The rest of the junior slaves did not dare to speak out. In the end, the nun who spoke first took a step forward and spoke.

After hearing everything, the maid who placed the candles tonight was already shaking her head and shouting that she should die.

Madam Hou ignored her. The people in Yongninghou's house were always kind-hearted and would not deal with slaves arbitrarily.

But such an accident-prone slave cannot stay in the house anymore. Who knows what big mistakes she will make in the future?

Just escort it to the government for disposal.

But those who have made merit should be greatly appreciated.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Hou looked aside with admiration, bowed her head and saluted Zhou Zheng Qing'er:

"Qing'er, right? You did a great job today. I'll reward you with three months of monthly silver coins."

Madam Hou's eyes were gentle, and it was rare to see such a careful slave. Without her, she would never have been exposed so easily tonight.

Qing'er is indeed a good person.

As soon as she thought that she did not discover this matter by herself, but that the little girl told her, she felt that the praise and reward were well deserved.

She knelt there and said nothing, her face turned red. She hesitated and hesitated, but still did not salute Mrs. Hou to express her gratitude.

The nanny next to her thought she was stupidly happy, but she didn't want her to lack etiquette in front of Mrs. Hou, so she nudged her with her elbow.

"Why are you still standing there? Are you so happy? Why don't you thank Madam for her great kindness?"

Mrs. Hou was very tolerant. She thought Qing'er was surprised, so she laughed:

"It doesn't matter."

Obviously he didn't take this matter to heart.

But neither of them expected that just when Mrs. Hou finished speaking, Qing'er kowtowed twice with a serious face and said righteously:
Chapter completed!
