Seeking Happiness Chapter 4: Fire


     Dream is a vast ocean, endless.

   She struggled, exhausted.

   Suddenly a wave rolled over. Somehow, the waves turned into flames, and the skin felt the pain of being burnt.

   Shu Huan opened her eyes suddenly, only to realize that the struggle in her dream caused her hand to touch and knocked down the half-burned candle. The flame of the candle burned her skin, and even singed the straw. The dry straw saw the open flame and immediately ignited. When she got up and tried to extinguish the fire, the fire had already spread.

   This penthouse is surrounded by slabs on all sides. If the fire cannot be controlled in time, it really burns, and it is likely to spread to nearby houses.

  "It's on fire! Open the door, open the door!"

   Shu Huan was in a hurry. First, he kicked the door twice. Before the door opened, he took the thin blanket in his hand and slammed the flames. It shot sparks everywhere, several times dangerously. Singing her hair.

   At this time, Xiangqian had already returned to her room to sleep. Outside was Qiaoyun, who was dozing in a daze. She was awakened. When she was about to open the door, she touched her body, only to remember that the key was not with her, so she panicked. Ran to find Xiangqian.

   This aroused a lot of people, even Aunt Yun woke up, and after rushing to ask what happened, she put on her clothes and brought Xiangqian to wait for the maid to open the door.

As soon as    opened the door, I hadn't seen the situation inside the house. First, a thick smoke poured out, making everyone cough and cry.

   After that, Shu Huan burst out from the inside with a smoky breath, sat down on the ground and coughed: "Water...fetching water...There is still a little fire..."

   She tried her best, she managed to control the fire and did not spread, but she was almost killed in it.

   It’s just that the small fire didn’t go out, but at the moment the door opened, the wind poured in, and the flames started to rise again. The maids fetched water, lighted the lights, searched for basins, and put out the fire for a while. , It was worthwhile to save the fire.

   Looking at the penthouse again, half of the panel wall has been burnt black, and there are water stains everywhere, mixed with straw ash, dripping with a wolf.

   Shuhuan’s appearance is not much better than that of the penthouse. His face was stained with gray stains, and he was sweaty. The outer hair fell off and was burnt off for a small amount. The clothes on his body were also crumpled, because When he fell asleep, he was suddenly startled, and before he could wear his shoes, the white silk socks on his feet turned black.

   At this moment, Auntie Yun is beside her, her whole body is refreshing, her black hair is like a waterfall and her shoulders are hanging down.

   Two phases and one contrast, her embarrassment is particularly conspicuous.

  The maids look at me and I look at you, looking at each other.

   Auntie Yun frowned slightly: "Sister, this matter..."

   got into trouble again!

   But why do you want to say it again? She can't rely on her to hang herself for death!

   Shu Huan sighed in her heart and stood up from the ground: "Sorry, I fell asleep with the wax on. I didn't expect it to cause a fire."

   Huiyun hurried over and knelt: "This is the maid’s fault. The candle was given to the mistress by the maid."

  "Get up." Aunt Yun shook her head: "You went back to me about the candle, but I was negligent..."

  's words were still not over, she suddenly saw a white figure in the main room, hurriedly greeted him, and said anxiously: "Second Lord, why did you come out?"

   Er Ye? Is her sickly husband?

   Shu Huan looked over curiously, and in the shadow of the lights, met a pair of eyes with a look of inquiry.

  The corners of his eyes are slightly raised, and a misty color flashes in his eyes. When I look again, those eyes are as bright as clear springs.

   Shu Huan was slightly surprised, as if she had seen such a pair of eyes somewhere.

   looked down and saw the corners of his lips curled up slightly, with a smile that seemed to be absent.

   She looked at Gu Xiran from the head again, and saw that his face was crisp and beautiful, but with a three-point youthfulness and a seven-point unconcealable sickness, thin and haggard, it seemed that his eyes became clearer. , As if a faint sweep can be seen in people's hearts.

   is clearly a stranger I have never met before, but those slightly familiar feelings linger in my heart.

   was only looking at it for a moment. Aunt Yun there was already anxious to help Gu Xiran into the house, and she still said: "It's windy outside, the second master caught the cold carefully. Go back to the house, you The body can no longer get sick."

   Gu Xiran shook his head slightly, raised his hand and beckoned to Shu Huan: "Come here."

   "Me?" Shu Huan was puzzled, but she had to move over: "What's the order of the second master?"

   Gu Xiran was not in a hurry to speak, but just glanced at her from the beginning to the end, saw her dirty body, frowned involuntarily, and then said to the maids in the courtyard: "Go get some water."

   Qiaoyun replied boldly: "Second Lord, it's late at night, the fire in the kitchen is out early."

   Gu Xiran's gaze swept lightly.

  Qiaoyun's heart was stunned, and he quickly continued: "Let me see, maybe there is still hot water on the stove."

   Huiyun also hurriedly said: "If it is not enough, there is still a pot of water in the small tea room for Erye to drink tea at night."

   Gu Xiran nodded: "I brought water to my room."

   said, he lowered his eyes to Shu Huan: "Help me into the house."

  As soon as these words came out, Aunt Yun was a little embarrassed and let go of her hand holding him, and stood silently aside.

   Shu Huan was even more puzzled. I don’t know which one he was singing. I only felt that I was caught between him and Aunt Yun. I was very suspicious of the third child. I was slightly annoyed. I wanted to shirk, but I saw my dirty pair. Looking at the white shirt on his body, he suddenly changed his mind. With a smile on the corner of his lips, he stretched out his hand grinningly, grabbed his arm and pushed it in.

   sample, let you pretend to be an uncle, ruining your clothes!

   After he helped Gu Xiran back into the room and let him sit down on the chair in the main hall, Shu Huan let go.

   As expected, there are two dark handprints on the sleeves of the white shirt.

   Shuhuan lowered his eyes and smiled.

   Gu Xiran naturally saw the stains on his sleeves and was speechless.

  After a while, he raised his eyes to look at Aunt Yun who followed up: "Come here with the clothes that he replaced."

   Aunt Yun hesitated a little, and nodded. After a while, she brought two clothes. One was naturally replaced by Gu Xiran, and the other was prepared for Shu Huan~ IndoMTL.com~ There were two others who followed her in. The maid of the maid carrying Mu bucket, and finally Huiyun holding some balm, powder and sesame oil.

   Seeing these, I think of Gu Xiran just asking for water. Shu Huan was suddenly embarrassed and had to ignore the embarrassment and dull atmosphere, bit the bullet and said: "Well, I will go back to my room to wash, these things don’t need to be moved. Come here."

   Aunt Yun did not answer, she just looked at Gu Xiran, and waited for him to signal.

   Gu Xiran picked up the tea bowl, lowered his eyes and said: "All of them are carried inside."

   Aunt Yun was sour in her heart, she concealed her head down and responded, and took the maids to the inside to prepare.

   Before crossing, Shu Huan was still a sophomore, no matter how open her mind was to play with strangers*, no matter what happened in the bridal chamber on the day the original owner married in, she would hang herself, anyway. For Shu Huan, the man in front of him was a stranger. It took less than ten minutes from the meeting to the meeting. In such a short time, she could not bear to have her bathe and change clothes in this room!

   I was in a hurry, she couldn't care about anything else, she opened her mouth and said: "If you are not married to each other, it is not good for you to do this?"

   Gu Xiran pursed his lips slightly, and put down the tea bowl: "You are married in, so you still care about this?"

   depressed!

   But it's a fact that she married in. She is his legal wife.

   Shu Huan couldn’t argue, she had to tactfully say: "Second Lord, your illness has not healed, I... I am also thinking about your body..."

  's words were so awkward that she blushed with embarrassment.

   Gu Xiran glanced at her, and a smile appeared on her lips: "Well, you are not interested in your bean sprout-like body."
