Huo Qingwu on the side was still confused about the situation. She interrupted the conversation between the two and said to Huo Jiuge: "If we want to prove that you and these two girls are innocent, we must let us go in and search. Only in this way can we convince the public."

After saying that, he pushed Huo Jiuge away and prepared to take people to search the ancestral hall himself.

"Do you still have any conscience? The whole family just moved into our Duke Rong's mansion to occupy the magpie's nest. They also bullied our young lady many times. Do you really think that our young lady is a soft persimmon?" Dongmei has a hot temper and is also the first to do so. Unable to stay calm.

"Bastard servant, where is the place for you to speak? Grandma Sun, just slap your mouth." Mrs. Qin's face darkened and she ordered.

Over the years, the last thing she wanted to hear was that someone said that they had occupied the Rongguo Duke's mansion. The girl next to Huo Jiuge dared to embarrass her in front of everyone, which completely pissed her off.

After hearing this, a burly old woman next to Qin immediately walked toward Dongmei aggressively.

Just when she was about to slap Dongmei, she was stopped abruptly by Huo Jiuge in mid-air.

"My girl, I can teach it myself, you don't need to worry about it!" After saying that, Huo Jiuge squeezed her hard. Grandma Sun felt pain, so she no longer dared to clamor to teach others for her.

The atmosphere fell into an awkward situation. After Huo Jiuge looked around for a week, he said to Huo Qingwu, who was shouting for a search: "Didn't you clamor for a search just now? Why are you standing still now?"

"You" Huo Qingwu didn't expect that Huo Jiuge, who had always been as timid as a mouse, would talk to him like this. He didn't know how to reply to her for a while, so he could only turn his attention to Qin for help.

But now the Qin family still cares about her. Now all she can think about is why Huo Jiuge changed from the obedient and cowardly girl before to the person in front of her who dares to go against her.

Sensing Huo Qingwu's eyes, she did not stand up to speak for her, but said to the others: "Since the fifth lady has spoken, you can go in and search."

With Qin's words, everyone rushed into the ancestral hall, ready to turn it upside down!

Outside the house, everyone was waiting for the results. It was extremely quiet for a while, except for the sound of snow falling from the branches, there was nothing else.

In the ancestral hall, Grandma Zhang and Grandma Sun led the team. They divided their troops into two groups, each searching one area.

"Search carefully for me. Don't miss any corner!" A group of people started rummaging through the boxes under the memorial tablets of the Huo family's ancestors.

Suddenly, there was a movement in the hall. Huo Qingwu outside thought that someone inside had found something, so she was the first to rush in.

I only saw a white shadow dodging wantonly on the Huo family shrine. People knocked down many tablets in order to catch it. After a closer look, I realized that the white shadow dodging everywhere was a white cat.

The leader, Grandma Sun, had her hairpin squeezed out in order to catch the cat. Just when she was about to catch it, her soles suddenly slipped and she fell down without paying attention.

When she fell to the ground, she waved her hands in the air. After grabbing the prayer flags, she thought she had caught the person who was trying to help her. She exerted all her strength and made all the rows of prayer flags tilt toward her.

She fell heavily to the ground, and the prayer flags were torn off by her, and all the ancestral tablets were swept down.

Below is the incense burner that is usually used to burn incense. People kicked over the incense burner in order to get the memorial tablet inside the fire. The soot instantly filled the whole room, choking people so much that they couldn't open their eyes.

The incense paper that had not yet been extinguished met the prayer flags, and the fire became even stronger in an instant.

Everyone was busy putting out the fire again.The cat also sensed that something was wrong, jumped down from the shrine, and ran out in the panic.

By the time Huo Qingwu reacted, the situation inside was already in chaos.

In the end, not only did they fail to find the so-called evidence, they even almost accidentally burned down the Huo family's ancestral hall.

This matter finally reached the ears of the Huo family.

The burning of the ancestral hall is a big deal for any family, let alone a big family like the Huo family that pays special attention to patriarchal traditions.

He immediately asked Mrs. Qin for questioning. After criticizing her in front of everyone, he asked her why she brought so many people to the ancestral hall and almost caused a disaster.

Mrs. Qin hesitated and couldn't explain clearly, but it was Huo Jiuge who stepped forward to help her answer the questions the old man asked her.

"Back to grandpa, it was Auntie Zhang who saw the girl next to me stealing things, and then she brought so many people to the ancestral hall to search."

"What did they steal?" Mr. Huo looked at Huo Jiuge, who looked dirty. Hearing what the housekeeper said, everyone was shocked when the fire broke out in the ancestral hall. Huo Jiuge was the first to react. Then he risked his life and broke into the fire scene to save the ancestral tablets enshrined in the ancestral hall.

If it hadn't been for her extraordinary agility, the loss would have been even more serious.

After this incident, the old man began to face up to the granddaughter he had ignored before. Although she was not as talented as Huo Qingshang and could bring glory to the Huo family, judging from her behavior of breaking into the fire, she was also courageous. An extraordinary person.

When Huo Jiuge saw him asking him this question, he answered truthfully: "Actually, I asked them to take it. They were just following my orders. Grandpa, if you want to punish me, just punish me."

Seeing the old man frowning in displeasure, she continued to explain: "Jiuge originally wanted to take advantage of this period of time to calm down and copy Buddhist scriptures in the ancestral hall, firstly so that he could cultivate himself; secondly, to pray for blessings. "

"I know that grandpa was angry because of the divorce between the third prince and me, so I wanted to make up for it, but who knew?" She became more and more careful about what she said next, and in the end she didn't even dare to continue.

She glanced at Mrs. Qin timidly, as if she was worried that she would be displeased if she continued.

Seeing his granddaughter in such a frightened state, Mr. Huo was instantly furious. He pointed at Qin and cursed: "Look at the good things you have done! If Jiu Ge has any trouble with this, do you think I will spare you?" !”

This was the first time in all the years that Mrs. Qin had been married to the Huo family that Mr. Huo was so angry with her. She panicked for a moment and quickly knelt down and begged him to forgive her for this mistake.

"What's the use of apologizing to me!" Mr. Huo shook off his sleeves angrily, "You have to apologize to the ancestors of the Huo family because you made such a big fuss. If you disturb them, No matter how much you lose, you won’t be able to compensate me for my peace!”

Mr. Huo was also extremely angry and began to speak incoherently.

But no matter how ugly what he said, Qin didn't dare to refute it.
