Chapter 7 A Knife
Feng Shuying stood at the door of the yard and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Help! Someone come quickly, it's on fire! Come put out the fire!"

Such a big fire immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The servants of the Lin Mansion came to put out the fire one after another, because if they didn't put it out, the fire would be so powerful that it would burn other houses.

The servant was responsible for putting out the fire, and Feng Shuying was responsible for pretending to cry: "Oh, father, mother, my daughter's life is miserable!"

"The things you left for me are all in there. I will miss you from now on, and I won't even have anything left!"

The servants originally only wanted to complete the task of putting out the fire. When they heard her words, they all went to put out the fire as if they were on fire.

They hoped that everything would not burn down and that they would be able to leave soon.

Because they worked too hard to rescue, some people were even burned.

Feng Shuying watched them put out the fire and cried louder: "The bracelet my mother left me, the jade pendant my father left me! Those are my last thoughts!"

She had just looked carefully and found that there was nothing valuable in her shabby room.

When the original owner eloped, she took away all her valuables. Today, in order to save her life, she gave everything to the abbot of the Buddhist temple.

Except for the two pearls she dug out and the one hundred taels of silver she just asked for from Lin Shuzheng, she had nothing of value on her body.

Lin Shuzheng hurried over: "It was fine, why did it catch on fire?"

Feng Shuying sniffed and said, "I don't know either. I went back to the room to rest, and suddenly it caught on fire!"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Lin Shuzheng and asked, "Uncle, could it be that someone wanted to kill me, so he wanted to set me on fire?"

Lin Shuzheng: "..."

His eyes deepened, it was really possible.

But he said: "Don't talk nonsense, it's nothing!"

Feng Shuying said softly: "My cousin has always held grudges. I hurt her today. Could it be that she wanted to burn me to death?"

Lin Shuzheng immediately denied it: "It's impossible. Your cousin is kind-hearted and would never do such a thing."

Feng Shuying said "Oh" and then said: "Uncle, they said that the King of Chu killed his seven fiancées, wouldn't I be killed by him too?"

There are too many people who want to kill her now. She is now focusing on a nonsense story. Let Lin Shuzheng guess!
Anyway, no one thought that she would set the fire.

Lin Shuzheng's expression changed several times, and he said solemnly: "It's nothing, don't talk nonsense!"

Feng Shuying said "Oh" again, showing very uneasiness.

At this time, the fire was under control, and Lin Shuzheng called the steward to arrange a new place for Feng Shuying.

He just told Feng Shuying today that he was a good uncle and couldn't slap her face too hard all at once, so he called the steward to rearrange her residence.

Lin Mansion is a third-level residence, and Feng Shuying currently lives in a remote woodshed in the corner.

After this place was burned down, there were only two spare rooms, one next to Lin Wanting's room, and the other was a dark and damp greenhouse.

Lin Shuzheng subconsciously wanted Feng Shuying to live in the flower house, but he heard her say: "My cousin has a room next door, why don't I live there first!"

"My uncle always said that he treats me like his own daughter. I guess it's not just talk."

Lin Shuzheng: "...naturally."

Even though the matter was settled, Lin Shuzheng felt a little uncomfortable.

A master once told him that Feng Shuying should not be allowed to live too comfortably. If she became comfortable, it would affect their family's luck.

But he thought that Feng Shuying wouldn't live long anyway and would never have a comfortable life. It wouldn't matter if she had a slightly better life before she died. After Hua knew about this, she complained to Lin Shuzheng, saying that Feng Shuying didn't deserve to live in such a good room.

It's just that Lin Shuzheng has already agreed to this. After all, it's hard to go back on his word, so he can only let her live there first. Anyway, she is dying and won't be able to live there for long.

All Feng Shuying's things were burned, and all daily necessities had to be prepared again.

Hua asked the steward to send Feng Shuying a set of things used by the servants in the mansion.

Feng Shuying was not surprised when she looked at the pile of low-quality things sent by the steward. No matter how bad these things were, they were still better than those used by the original owner.

She had done a lot of things today and challenged Lin Shuzheng's limits. She thought she could just give up.

She tidied up a little and was about to make the bed to rest. A man dressed as a maid came in.

Feng Shuying narrowed her eyes slightly when she saw the maid.

As soon as the maid came in, she said: "My eldest lady, why are you so careless?"

"Do you really think you are still the eldest lady of Feng Mansion? You have to know that you are living under someone else's roof now!"

"My uncle and his wife are willing to give you a place to stay. It's because they are nostalgic for old friendship. How can you have the nerve to ask to live next door to Miss Wanting?"

When the original owner came to Lin Mansion, he brought two maids with him.

It's just that one of the two maids was sold by Hua for some reason, and the other went to Hua directly.

In recent years, not to mention protecting the original owner, he often helped Hua to bully the original owner.

Feng Shuying looked at the maid and said, "I have recently learned how to read faces. I think you are going to suffer a bloody disaster today."

The maid glanced at her and said, "Am I suffering from a bloody disaster? I am only looking at you to have a bloody disaster!"

"I kindly advised you to leave the Lin Mansion and live a good life with Chen Yansheng, but you came back again."

"Forget it if you come back, your residence is on fire as soon as you come back. This is God punishing you!"

After hearing these words, Feng Shuying remembered that the reason why the original owner was able to elope with Chen Yansheng was also due to this maid.

If this maid hadn't PUAed the original owner every day and encouraged her in various ways, the original owner wouldn't have done such outrageous things.

Naturally, Feng Shuying would not tolerate such a vicious slave who betrayed his master.

The maid was still there, Feng Shuying walked over, grabbed her hair and knocked her heavily against the pillar next to her.

The maidservant was completely confused, and she looked at Feng Shuying in disbelief.

Feng Shuying smiled slightly at her: "I said you have a bloody disaster, so you must have it!"

After she finished speaking, she dipped her finger in the blood on the maid's head and drew a talisman on her chest. The maid just stood there blankly.

Feng Shuying said softly: "I think even though you betrayed your master, you still have to use your remaining light and enthusiasm at the last moment."

"Go and find Hua, have a nice chat with her, and then give her a big surprise."

After she finished speaking, she whispered a few words into the maid's ear, and then handed the maid a kitchen knife.

Everything is ready, just wait for the show to begin!
The maid responded, took the kitchen knife and walked out blankly, and then walked to Hua's room.

Because it was getting late and it was dark everywhere, although some servants saw the maid, they didn't pay attention. They were far away and they couldn't see the injury on her forehead.
