Chapter 722 Siege
Qi Mansion.
Mrs. Qi just woke up and finished washing, and was waiting for the maid to bring her breakfast. After sitting on the round stool for a while, she already lazily yawned twice, gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and complained to the maid Said: "Just woke up and want to sleep again, this person is living too decadent!"
"Madam must have not slept well last night, why don't Madam go to bed after breakfast?" the servant girl suggested.
Madam Qi waved her hand: "That's all."
How did you sleep well last night?
She was the last one to find out that her husband was injured, which is ironic, but she thought she was a close friend who didn't talk about it and wanted to have a heart-to-heart conversation, but she didn't send anyone to tell her about it.
Fortunately, she still wants to have a heart-to-heart relationship with her, so cherish it. But others will discard it like shoe shoes. This difference in treatment made her feel pain in her heart.
While various pastries and noodles were placed on the table for bird's nest porridge, Mrs. Qi didn't have much appetite, so she reluctantly took a few mouthfuls before being asked to leave.
The little maid saw that Madam's appetite was getting worse and worse, and she couldn't be interested in anything, and now the general was injured again, so he lived separately in the study in the front yard.
She was anxious in her heart, and she was desperately trying to find something new outside to tell the madam to relieve her boredom. In a flash, the little maid remembered the latest real-time gossip she had just heard in the kitchen.
"Madam." She glanced carefully at Madam Qi, and seeing that she didn't respond, she deliberately paused: "Something happened outside."
"Do you know what I just heard in the kitchen?"
"Taohong, what did you hear?"
The singing and harmony of the maids finally attracted Madam Qi's attention. She turned her head and stared at the little maid for a moment, waiting for her next words.
"The warehouse that was burned down in the fire two days ago belonged to Mrs. Tan. I believe you all know it." The peach red maid glanced at Liu Lu, then turned to Mrs. Qi. Something happened again in the morning."
The little peach red maid’s voice was up and down, and her small mouth vividly described the scene at that time. When she talked about passion, she didn’t forget to dance with her hands and feet. The ups and downs of the city’s disaster victims besieging the cheap food store made the other two listeners feel itchy. Know the follow-up.
"What about after that?" Madam Qi grabbed Shoujuan with both hands, and asked anxiously, "How did Madam Tan deal with it?"
"When the steward of the kitchen came back, it was said that the Tan family had already reported to the government." The little maid scratched her head, she didn't know what would happen next.
"People, you can't do things that are wrong to your heart." Madam Qi smiled gloatingly, and clicked her tongue a few times: "Look, this retribution came quickly enough, right?"
After finishing speaking, Madam Qi drove the maids out, and when she heard the news that Yang Lan'er was unlucky, she felt refreshed, even the depression in her chest almost dissipated.
She yawned and decided to go back to the kang for a sleep. Speaking of the kang, she also learned it from Yang Lan'er.
If it wasn't for Yang Lan'er's handling of the injury incident that was criticized, she would really like to make a handkerchief.
At the same time, in the study room in the front yard, Qi Xiang also received the news sent by his subordinates, knowing that something happened to Yang Lan'er's cheap food shop.
"Is the situation under control now?"
The personal guard who was squatting in the corner stood at the table this time and replied: "At present, it is within the controllable range, and the county government has dispatched all the government officials."
Qi Xiang thought for a while, and first asked half of the guards in the mansion to help maintain order.
And when the news spread to the inner courtyard, Mrs. Qi, who was sleepy but couldn't sleep, suffered from a headache and couldn't sleep, and dropped a beautiful tea set.
