In the evening, Su Eli was busy cooking for two small dumplings. When they were almost ready, she smelled a faint smell of burning.

"Did you smell anything?" Su Eli shrugged the tip of her nose, and the smell became clearer.

"It seems like something is burning." Su Chuanchuan also smelled it carefully, and the burning smell seemed to be nearby.

Just when Su Eli was about to check if her rice was cooked, she suddenly heard a sound coming from outside - "It's on fire! It's on fire! Come and put out the fire!"

Hearing this sound, which was right behind her house, Su Eli knew the danger of a fire. She didn't care about cooking or her lollipops, and walked out with a small dumpling in one hand.

After going out, she saw thick smoke, which was indeed coming from behind her house. Someone in the village had already heard the sound and came to put out the fire.

They went around to the back of the house and found that the fire was not big, just a clump of haystacks burning.

"This must have been lit by someone!" Uncle Sun, who came to put out the fire, shouted angrily, "Who is so wicked?! If the fire breaks out, our whole village will suffer if it is not saved!"

Someone angrily echoed, "Yeah, who is it? This is so wicked! Catch him and beat him!"

While everyone was speculating on the cause of the fire and the person who set it, Weng Songbai had quietly sneaked into Su Eli's house.

He set the fire.

Seeing that Su Eli didn't come out, he couldn't just wait like this, so he came up with a bad idea and went around to the back of her house to set a fire. He was also the one who shouted the words "fire" just now, and his purpose was to

Lead people out.

He got into Su'eri's house and quietly walked into the kitchen. The fact was exactly as he guessed. The lollipops made by Su'eri were placed in the kitchen.

Looking at the colorful candies, Weng Songbai thought hard and frowned, but he couldn't figure out how Su Eli's candy was made.

He stared at the pile of lollipops and thought that the fire was not big. Su Eli would be back soon. He couldn't let her catch him, so he stretched out his hand and pulled out one color.

He picked one up, hid it in his sleeve, and walked out quickly.

After the fire was put out and it was confirmed that it would not burn again, Su Eli returned home with two little dumplings.

As soon as she entered the door, she felt something was wrong.

She always felt as if someone had come into the house.

Su Eli immediately went to see where the money was hidden. She counted it and found that there was not a penny missing.

What was going on? She looked around. Nothing seemed to have changed in the room, but she just felt something was wrong.

Moreover, there was a fire just now, so Su Nuannuan took Wang Wang out immediately. After coming back, Wang Wang kept sniffing something. He was still too young to be effective as a housekeeper, but he was still a dog and had a very sensitive sense of smell.

.

Could it be... Su Eli frowned, walked into the kitchen, and looked at the candies she had arranged.

There were only three missing candies in a large pile of candies, so it shouldn't be obvious, but Su Eli had just sorted them out, so she felt something was wrong at a glance.

Stealing candy again...could it be Su Yuanbao and the others again?

No, Su Yuanbao suffered a loss last time, so he shouldn't be stupid enough to steal candy again.

And this thief is also interesting, no more, no less, he only took one of the same thing. Since he wanted to steal, why not take them all?

Su Eli thought about it for a while, but she still couldn't figure it out.

At this moment, Yun Mingyue came with a bowl of bone soup, "Eli, my mother asked me to bring you some soup to drink. By the way, I heard about what you asked my mother to help me inquire about."

Su Eli always felt that something was wrong with Master An. Cao often went to the market in the town and knew many people, so she asked Cao to help find out what was going on with Master An.

"It's a coincidence that you asked. Did you know that Master An and you are still distant relatives?" Yun Mingyue said.

"Distant relative?" Su Eli really didn't expect it.

"Yes." Yun Mingyue nodded, "He is your second aunt's cousin. Aren't they both named An?"

Su Eli suddenly realized that after Yun Mingyue said this, she remembered that Master An's eyebrows seemed to be somewhat similar to her second aunt An's.

It turns out that they are cousins!

"No wonder..." Su Eli murmured. Last time An didn't get any advantage from her. She must have resented herself in her heart. She must have said something to that Master An. No wonder he was so weird towards her and wanted to do whatever he wanted.

There must be a lot of An's ideas in competing for business with him.

She narrowed her eyes slightly. So, it seems that today's candy throwing thing is not easy.

"Why, what did you remember again?" Yun Mingyue asked curiously.

"It's nothing. Thank you Mingyue. Thank your aunt for the soup for me. Let me take you back." Su Eli smiled at her.

Yun Mingyue was confused, "What are you thinking about? I'm right next door, so why would you give me a gift?"

"Let's go, I have my reasons." Su Eli said, holding her arm, "Just let me send you back."

"Okay, okay." Yun Mingyue was helpless and could only agree.

When Su Eli walked out of the house, she immediately saw the person not far away.

Weng Songbai didn't expect Su'eri to come out, so he couldn't dodge and bumped into her. He didn't panic and called out openly, "Cousin."

Her guess was indeed correct, there was indeed an acquaintance nearby.

Su Eli's expression remained normal and she smiled at him, "Isn't this cousin Songbai? Why are you here?"

His expression remained unchanged and he continued to lie, "Oh, I don't know what happened today. My stomach hurts. There is no doctor in our village, so I came to your village to see a doctor. I didn't expect it to be better. I'm about to go back."

Woolen cloth."

"Go in and sit down. My cousin is here. If you don't invite me to sit at home, people will say I'm rude if they find out." Su Eli was very enthusiastic, "Last time I went to my grandma's house, Chuanchuan and Nuannuan

I haven’t seen you yet, but I’ve been talking about you.”

Weng Songbai made some calculations in his mind and put on an enthusiastic look, "Okay, then I'll go in and sit down. I'll bother my cousin."

"Well, you go in first. I'll go to my aunt's house next door first and I'll be back soon." Su Eli held Yun Mingyue's arm and entered Cao's house.

Weng Songbai entered the door and didn't sit down in a hurry, but looked around.

He just ate a lollipop, and as soon as the taste touched his tongue, he was completely conquered.
