Seeing that the fire had already reached the roof, she shouted at the little girl, "What are you waiting for? Get out …"
Before she could finish her sentence, the pile of clothes on the left collapsed and the fire fell on the little girl's body.
Bai Xiangxiu was shocked. She hesitated for a moment and wondered if she should save the little girl.
If she tried to save herself, she might not be able to get out of here.
But when she saw the little girl screaming in pain from the fire, she gritted her teeth and rushed over.
She kicked the cotton-padded clothes away and covered the little girl with the wet clothes. Then, she pulled her up and ran towards the window.
Her hands seemed to have been burned in the process, but she couldn't care less.
"Get out …" With that, she put on the wet clothes and the two of them jumped out of the window, one after the other.
As soon as he stepped out, his back foot was blocked by the collapsed clothes.
Bai Xiangxiu fell to the ground and panted. She felt that the fresh air was wonderful.
Her body hurt, but she didn't know if it was because of the fall or the fever.
She heard Xiao Shi calling out to her. She opened her eyes slightly and glanced at Xiao Shi. She heaved a sigh of relief when she found that Xiao Shi wasn't burned.
The moment he breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't take it anymore and fainted.
After what seemed like a long time, she seemed to have returned to the modern world in a daze.
She was still sitting there looking at her phone. Suddenly, someone called out to her. "Yangyang, don't fall asleep. It's cold today!"
"Got it, Inspector Li."
She replied casually. Her head was a little dizzy and she didn't know where she was.
Wait, there seemed to be someone calling out to her. Who could it be?
"Mistress Xiu, Mistress, please wake up!"
The sound of crying was so familiar.
Who could it be?
Oh, I remember now. It's her. It's Xiao Shi.
She opened her eyes abruptly and saw Xiao Shi kneeling by her bed and crying.
"Why are you crying …"
Why was his voice so hoarse? Bai Xiangxiu frowned. Everything that had happened before reappeared in her memory.
She seemed to be trying to save someone, but she got injured when she jumped out of the window.
There were burns on his hands. It couldn't be serious, right?
He slowly lifted it up and found that it had been wrapped up like a rice dumpling.
Her mind went dark and she almost cried, "My hand isn't ruined, is it?
And my face. "
It wouldn't be good if she ruined such a beauty.
Xiao Shi hurriedly said, "It's not ruined, it's not ruined. The doctor just bandaged it a little too much.
Your hand is fine, and so is your face. "
But looking at it made her heart ache. If it wasn't for her master saving her, she was afraid that she would have been burned to death in the bedding room.
Fortunately, she was fine. Otherwise, he would really have to die to atone for his sins.
Seeing Xiao Shi crying, Bai Xiangxiu reached out her hand, which was wrapped like a rice dumpling, to comfort her.
Then she asked, "What about that girl? Is she alright?"
"Her injuries are a little serious, but the doctor said there's no problem. It's just that there will be a mark on her forehead, but it won't affect anything."
That girl practically treated her master as a god. After her injuries were bandaged, she knelt outside and kowtowed to her. From then on, she would come once a day to kowtow and then run away.
"Oh, how long have I been unconscious?"
Why did she feel weak all over, as if her bones were falling apart?
"You've been unconscious for two days and even had a high fever. You really scared Xiao Shi to death."
Xiao Shi finished speaking and began to cry again.
"Silly child, I'm fine."
In Bai Xiangxiu's eyes, Xiao Shi was just a child.
Xiao Shi was already used to her arrogant behavior and didn't mind. She only said, "Bao Qin jiejie, Madame Xiu is awake. Shouldn't we feed her some porridge first?"
"Yes, let Madame wait a moment." Bao Qin answered from outside. Then, she heard footsteps. It seemed she was going to get the porridge.
However, Bai Xiangxiu struggled to get up. Xiao Shi hurriedly held her down and said, "Madame Xiu, you can't get up so casually …"
"But I want to go to the toilet."
Bai Xiangxiu struggled to get up, but in the end, she was pushed back down by Xiao Shi. She felt helpless.
"Ah, but you can walk, right? Why don't you have Xiao Shi bring the urinal?"
"No need."
That would be too embarrassing. Bai Xiangxiu struggled to get up.
With Xiao Shi's help, she walked into the cubicle. However, when she glanced at herself in the mirror, she almost fell down.
What's with the mummy in the mirror? What did the doctor do to her?
She didn't remember being injured in so many places. What kind of ghost could have done to her?
It couldn't be that even the bottom of her skirt was bandaged, right? She was depressed.
"Madame Xiu, you mustn't be afraid. These injuries were … were bandaged by Xiao Shi.
Because the nurse wasn't here, so … "Xiao Shi's face turned red. Bai Xiangxiu understood.
So she had been tormented by an outsider. Now, she didn't have to worry about being burned into a roasted suckling pig or something strange.
After resolving the physical discomfort, she realized that her entire body really did hurt, but she could still endure it.
Not long after, the doctor brought the nurse over to examine her injuries. He said that as long as she changed her dressing on time, there shouldn't be any problems. The most serious injuries would only leave light white scars, so there was no need to be afraid.
Bai Xiangxiu really wasn't afraid. She didn't plan on using her face and body to seduce any man, so it didn't matter if there were a few flaws.
The most important thing was, had those cotton-padded clothes been burned? That would be really depressing.
It would take at least half a month to make these clothes, and the weather would be cold by then.
If she wanted the servants to make them themselves, they would need the materials!
"Call the head steward over."
She felt like her voice was like the strings of a broken zither. It was very uncomfortable to hear.
"Mistress Xiu, you should eat something first …"
Bao Qin brought in the porridge. Although Bai Xiangxiu was weak, she didn't want to eat anything because of her sore throat.
"Mistress Xiu, you have to eat something. Otherwise, your body won't be able to handle it."
Xiao Shi cried as she spoke.
She had no choice but to drink two mouthfuls. When she swallowed, she felt as if her throat was on fire. It was so painful that tears almost flowed out.
The Huo Er also felt sorry for its master. "Master is in pain, so is the Huo Er."
Bai Xiangxiu hadn't expected to be comforted by a cactus. She couldn't help but laugh.
Just as she was laughing, the head steward, Long Shuting, walked in. Although he was separated by a screen, he could see that she was eating.
He was very upset. A perfectly fine person had been burned to this extent. When the Prince returned, he would be punished!
Most importantly, he hadn't expected this master to be so capable. He had actually saved the two maidservants at the most critical moment. If someone had really been burned to death, it wouldn't be as simple as being blamed.
However, he hadn't expected that she would call him over as soon as she woke up. If he guessed correctly, it should be about the cotton-padded clothes.
However, he was more concerned about another problem. Because he had seen the scene before, he was 100% sure that someone had set the fire, and it wasn't an accident.
