I'm going to become rich after being dressed as a five-year-old woman

Gu Yanyan was still running on the road at this time. His clothes were all wet. Summer clothes were thin to begin with, and now they were all sticking to his body. The night wind was still cool, and he sneezed while running.

He walked very fast. It would take half an hour to get to the town from Gujia Village by ox cart. If he walked faster, it would even be faster than the ox cart. At this moment, he ran as fast as he could and arrived in just fifteen minutes.

There was someone guarding the gate. When he saw someone running over, he quickly drew his knife and stopped him.

"Who are you? Do you have any documents or a pass?"

Passage is not allowed at night, but it is still possible if there is a pass from above.

Gu Yanyan naturally didn't have this thing on him, and he coughed anxiously. Suddenly, he remembered the token of the Su family given to him by his mother, a jade pendant made of the finest mutton-fat jade.

The two guards who were watching looked at it carefully and laughed out loud: "What is it? How dare you take it out? If you don't have it, get out."

The guard was getting a little impatient. Working the night shift was already tiring and tiring, and now how could someone want to break in? He must be fed up with life.

"Please be flexible, my lords. There are many refugees in our village, and they are trying to take away everything in the village. The situation is urgent, and we don't have a pass."

"If you don't have any, get out of here and don't disturb my sleep."

The guard became even more impatient and pushed him away.

Gu Yanyan had been running all the way and was almost exhausted, so he was knocked to the ground by this push.

Fortunately, there was no bleeding. Gu Yanyan held his forehead and persuaded: "The young master of the Su family is also in our village at this moment. The jade pendant just now is the token of the Su family."

The two looked at each other. The material of the jade pendant did look good, but how could it be possible that the young master of the Su family came from his village?

The young master was very precious and pampered. He would make a scene for three days if something went wrong. Since he came, everyone knew his reputation.

Gu Yanyan's face also turned bad: "Even if I lied to you, you can put me in jail after you find out the truth, but if it is true, can you bear the responsibility?"

"The Su family has only come to the town in recent years, right? Or was it Master Qu who came here? This shows that the Su family's power is definitely beyond our reach. If something really happens, who can protect you?"

Gu Yanyan was anxious and didn't care whether his words were polite or not.

The two of them were a little hesitant when they heard his words, and after thinking it over again and again, they went to ask the person in charge.

When the man saw the jade pendant and heard that the young master of the Su family was in trouble, he immediately rode his horse and sent him directly to the door of the Su family.

That person probably also wanted to thank the Su family for their kindness, so he accompanied Gu Yanyan and others to open the door.

I knocked so hard that someone finally came to open the door.

"What happened that made you dare to trespass into our Su family's door?" The servant looked even more impatient. What on earth could have happened so late at night?

He was not worried that someone was here to rob. Just kidding, who would dare to rob the Su family?

Gu Yanyan didn't waste any time and directly took out the jade pendant. Even if the guards didn't recognize it, someone from the Su family should know it, otherwise the jade pendant would be completely useless.

When the servant saw the jade pendant, his expression changed. If someone was holding this jade pendant so late at night, something must have happened to the young master.

"Please wait inside. I will notify the housekeeper immediately."

The servant hurried to inform, and another person led them to the main hall to wait.

The housekeeper came jogging over, adjusting his clothes as he ran.

He clasped his fists towards Gu Yanyan and said, "Sir, please tell me, what happened to my little master?"

After telling him everything, Steward Su's eyes were solemn, but he arranged for people to bring all the guards over in an orderly manner, and to bring swords and ride horses to Gujia Village.

The Su family was probably more powerful than he imagined. The cost of just one horse was extremely high, let alone so many.

Steward Su gave benefits to the steward who came with him at the beginning and asked him to go to the county to invite the county magistrate.

The horse ran much faster than a human, and in just over a quarter of an hour it reached the entrance of the village, where it saw a blaze of fire and most of the houses had been burned down.

Many people here build their houses with wood and thatch, and some use mud bricks, which are mixed with straw and are also easy to burn.

The ones closest to the village entrance have almost been burned down.

Steward Su got off his horse in a hurry, and Gu Yanyan quickly told him: "Don't worry, the children are all on the mountain. It's just that if the fire burns too vigorously, it will produce poisonous gas."

But now the dried-up river looks so hopeless.

"There is water on the mountain, but I don't know if they have the tools to collect water."

Gu Yanyan found the people from Gujia Village who were thrown into the woods. Most of them were tied up here with wounds on their faces. They must have been tied up and thrown here after a fight.

These are all trees. If they had arrived later, the fire would have burned them all to death.

Everyone was originally in despair. Everyone was tied up here, and the women and children were unable to get out of the mountain. When the fire got bigger, everyone would be burned to death.

As soon as they were untied, everyone quickly took off their clothes and wanted to put out the fire. The fire was big and the temperature was high. Taking off clothes could not solve the problem fundamentally, but it could relieve it a little. They were also afraid that their clothes would get burned.

"Everyone can come over and wet your clothes with your hands, and cover your mouth and nose with them, so that you won't inhale the poisonous gas." Gu Yansui shouted loudly, asking everyone to protect themselves.

This is what Zhao Qiqi taught me before, but I didn't expect that I would actually use it.

In the end, the water brought by the Su family was not enough, so Gu Yanyan asked them to pee on their clothes. Although it smelled, it was better than dying.

Everyone used things to put out the fire. Although the force was weak, it was better than nothing.

Gu Yanyan asked the guards of the Su family to use knives to cut a path through the woods farther away from the fire so that the fire would not spread easily and there were still crops in the fields.

Zhao Qiqi used the same method, and the pepper field in their backyard was set on fire. Fortunately, there was water. Zhao Qiqi's house had many wooden barrels, and the fire at Li's house had not yet spread. Everyone worked together to find all the barrels first, and even the children carried the weight they could bear.

The water was filled in the yard of Zhao Qiqi's house. It was too late to burn the pepper seedlings in the backyard. They also dismantled the fence and set up an isolation zone to prevent the fire from spreading to the mountain.

The flow rate of the spring at home is controlled by Zhao Qiqi, but it is impossible to make it spray out like a fountain.

There is still relatively little water.

Everyone also went to the mountain to fetch water, stood in a team, and took turns to carry the water down.

By adding water to the isolation belt, the fire was brought under control and everything inside the fire scene was almost burned out.

Then the fire became smaller and people united to fight the fire together.

When water could not be supplied, they used other things to put out the fire. Zhao Qiqi noticed that some people were in a bad condition, so he quickly pulled them to a place further back. Although they used wet clothes to cover their mouths and noses, they still inhaled a lot of poisonous gas after persisting for so long.
