It was not until dawn that Su Qing gritted her teeth and helped the woman put on clothes and bracelets.

He dragged her to the bed and covered her with a quilt.

After tidying up everything, Su Qing changed her clothes, put the banknotes and land deeds close to her body, and sat on the chair beside the bed.

As soon as she sat down, she heard someone talking outside.

"But we have to talk to Auntie. She will blame us if we just leave with you guys!"

"How dare you disobey Madam's orders?"

Su Qing understood that this was Su Wanyu asking her maid to leave. Unfortunately, Ling'er and Shuilian were a little stubborn.

"Ling'er, what are you guys arguing about? Stop it, I want to rest."

"Auntie, are you awake? Then the servants~"

"Go and pray for the Marquis quickly and don't disturb me." Su Qing interrupted Ling'er and let her continue speaking before she came in.

"Yes, the servants are leaving, Auntie, please take a rest."

I don’t know how long it took, but the yard finally became quiet.

Su Qing hadn't slept all night and was now more energetic.

After a long time, you could hear a pin drop. Someone gently opened the door, Su Qing put on her hat and waited for the person to come in.

After the person came in, Su Qing didn't say anything.

"Young lady, please go to the yard and wait."

Su Qing walked out without saying a word.

After a while, a raging fire broke out in the house and the man came out.

"Girl, please follow me."

Su Qing followed the man to a remote corner of the yard. The man looked around, moved a small tree away, and there was a dog hole behind it.

How come she didn’t know there was a dog hole here?

"Girl, hurry up and follow me. If you hesitate for a moment, someone will come. The fire is already big and there is smoke."

Su Qing hurriedly got out. A carriage was already waiting outside the dog hole.

Su Qing quickly got on the carriage and breathed a sigh of relief. She was finally out.

At this time she was a little sleepy, and the carriage was driving all the time, so she fell asleep peacefully.

"Girl, wake up, girl, wake up?"

Su Qing slowly opened her eyes when she heard someone calling her. After getting off the car, she realized that it was already dark. She had a really big heart.

The man took her into the inn and showed her to her room.

After closing the door, the man spoke: "Young lady, please stay here for now. The master told you to remember what he told you. Just wait. I will go out first. Someone will come to find you soon."

Su Qing just nodded to show that she understood.

At the Marquis' Mansion, Su Wanyu returned about an hour after Su Qing left.

On the way, a servant came and said, "Madam, I have something important to report."

Seeing this, Madam Liu scolded the boy: "How can you be so flustered? You scared the Madam and she will ask you for your help!"

"what is the matter?"

"Madam, it's the servant from the mansion. He said he has something important to report."

"Let him speak!"

"Tell the lady now!"

"Madam, it's bad. There's a fire in the side yard of the mansion."

"What? How could there be a fire? What about Aunt Su? Is there anything wrong?"

"Aunt Su~Aunt Su was burned to death."

"What?" Su Wanyu fainted after saying that.

"Madam, Madam? Hurry, hurry back to the mansion. Liuli asked the quick servant to take the mansion's token to invite the imperial physician. Hurry~"

Su Wanyu was not pretending to faint, she really fainted. She was not too frightened, but too excited. In addition, she was tired in recent days and was tortured by the Marquis, so she fainted.

Nanny Liu only knew that Su Wanyu had been dealing with some matters recently, and she didn't dare to ask what they were. After all, she was Su Wanyu's wet nurse and just a servant. It was better for her not to ask too much about her master's affairs.
