After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 48 Su Xiaoxiao's house was set on fire
Smelling the aroma of chicken, Su Xiaoxiao said to Dabao and Xiaobao, "That's their business, we don't need to interfere. Remember, mind your own business."

Su Xiaoxiao actually wanted to laugh out loud.

"The weather will be nice tomorrow, shall we go mushroom picking in the mountains?"

Su Xiaoxiao said this.

The two children were quite happy, and at that moment they had forgotten what had happened at their uncle's house.

The next day, Su Xiaoxiao took her two children to the mountain. She even brought tools with her today in case she encountered the tiger again.

As Su Xiaoxiao was concentrating on walking up the mountain, she suddenly heard someone calling her name from behind.

"Su Xiaoxiao, your house is on fire!"

Su Xiaoxiao was genuinely startled when she heard such a shout.

"what?"

She could hardly believe her ears. Before the two children could react, she quickly grabbed her older child in one arm and her younger child in the other, and ran towards her home.

At that moment, she seemed to have only one thought in her mind: that this must have been done by Liu Dazhuang.

Da Bao shouted, "Mom, what should we do if our house catches fire?"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, but continued running home with determination.

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao arrived at the village entrance, she saw smoke rising from the direction of her house in the distance.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao didn't say anything and rushed straight home. She seemed to have already guessed about 70-80% of what was going on.

Su Xiaoxiao and the other villagers went to fetch water from a nearby stream, and then started running towards the direction where their house was on fire.

She was heartbroken. She'd only found this one place to stay after transmigrating, yet these people still wouldn't leave her alone. Were they planning to force her to her death?
If Su Xiaoxiao had been at home with the children at the time, she would probably have been burned to death inside by now.

They are absolutely wicked! These people are truly wicked!

He's two-faced!
Unexpectedly, she also ran into Su Xiaoxiao today.

She truly hates it now and doesn't know how to express her anger.

At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao just wanted to run home as fast as possible. After checking for a while, she realized that it was fortunate that the rescue was timely today, otherwise the house would have been burned down.

However, when she noticed that the kitchen looked like it had been burned a little, Su Xiaoxiao was furious. She didn't know how to explain her feelings when she saw all the hard work she had put into her home go to waste.

Su Xiaoxiao was shocked when she saw the scene of the fire. She felt that there must be someone behind it, but she didn't know who it was.

At that moment, she saw Liu Dazhuang and Granny Liu hiding furtively behind the big tree behind their house.

They seemed to be waiting to see Su Xiaoxiao make a fool of herself, but despite the large crowd, no one came to put out the fire. Was such a neighbor really worth keeping? Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

Looking at the blackened walls of her home, she was filled with regret. Why had she insisted on going up the mountain to pick mushrooms today? At this moment, Su Xiaoxiao, having seen the scene, knew that the fire must have been caused by someone.

Su Xiaoxiao quickly called the village head, but the matter of obtaining evidence still needed the village head to help her family make a decision.

The village head was very angry and said to Su Xiaoxiao, "Don't worry, if this fire was caused by someone, I will definitely investigate it thoroughly for you."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded, indicating that she was completely at ease with Li Zheng.

However, Su Xiaoxiao also expressed her gratitude to everyone present, including those who helped put out the fire at her home.

"If it weren't for everyone's help today, our house would have burned down long ago."

Su Xiaoxiao secretly told the village head that she had just seen Liu Dazhuang and Granny Liu. The village head nodded to Su Xiaoxiao, indicating that he would go over and ask them right away.

When the village head arrived at Granny Liu's house, he witnessed a major battle taking place over the division of the family property.

Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon such a fascinating scene. It turned out that, at Li Dongmei's strong insistence, and now that everything was settled, they wanted to formally sign an agreement to establish clear rules, stipulating that Li Dongmei and Liu Dazhuang would not be responsible for their parents' care in the future.

"Alright, stop arguing. I'm asking you, who set fire to Su Xiaoxiao's house?"

Su Xiaoxiao was also present at this moment, as were Da Bao and Xiao Bao. They all glared at Grandma Liu and her family.

Grandma Liu was too embarrassed to speak, but Su Xiaoxiao generously said to them, "In that case, I'll cook a nice meal at home tonight and invite you all over for dinner, how about that?"

The village head was also taken aback when he heard this, not expecting Su Xiaoxiao to be so generous.

To prove they weren't guilty, Grandma Liu and Liu Dazhuang's family also went to eat.

Before this, they were all the same; their attitudes weren't very obvious, and if they had shown their panic, they would have been exposed long ago.

Su Xiaoxiao kept her word. After returning home, she started cooking. Soon, the aroma of very sweet rice began to waft through the yard. At this time, Da Bao also brought out his small stool and placed the chopsticks and side dishes on the table.

The villagers have almost all arrived. The stools and tables here look very new, which shows that Su Xiaoxiao values ​​these villagers very much.

Grandma Liu and Liu Dazhuang seemed particularly reserved. They used to be very confident, but now they looked completely embarrassed.

Whether it was because they felt guilty or not, the two of them stood there awkwardly, which seemed to say everything.

Su Xiaoxiao pretended not to see anything and continued preparing her meal inside. No one knew what delicious food she was making, but everyone outside the yard could smell a very fragrant aroma, a smell that made them all yearn for it. However, for the time being, no one mentioned the fire.

Everyone acted as if nothing had happened, not mentioning a word about the fire. Su Xiaoxiao's yard was also burned black.

However, at this moment, Granny Liu seemed even more uneasy. How to put it? She was forcing a smile the whole time, while everyone started praising Su Xiaoxiao for being so good at managing her finances.

Su Xiaoxiao placed all the dishes on very delicate white porcelain plates and then brought them up. Da Bao also helped carry the dishes up. Actually, you could tell that Da Bao was willing to help because he was quite obedient and well-behaved here.
