Chapter 425: Fire in Hejia Village
He rested his big head on Shen Nuo's shoulder and spoke in a muffled voice.
"Oh, that's probably out of curiosity. Don't think too much about it. I'll just ask him not to stare at me next time. Don't be angry."
Shen Nuo reached out and rubbed Qin Yan's head, coaxing him the same way he coaxed himself.
Qin Yan was satisfied now, and the corners of his mouth curved up: "Well, that's it, he just can't keep staring at you."
"Humph, you're not going to learn the ways of that overbearing CEO, are you?"
Shen Nuo found it funny and teased him.
These days, Qin Yan has been looking for a lot of storybooks to read, mainly those suitable for children, and reading them specifically to children.
But sometimes, I would suddenly come across a novel like: The Domineering President Meets Love, Where Can the Gentle and Sweet Wife Escape?...
Shen Nuo found it funny when he saw it.
"No, that domineering CEO is not a good guy. He always neglects his wife because of Bai Yueguang, and even makes his wife suffer from this disease or that disease. I won't learn from him."
Qin Yan seemed to recall the plot in the novel and said:
"I just want Nuonuo to be safe and sound, and not to learn from that overbearing CEO."
"Besides, Nuonuo is my white moonlight, so there is no such thing as a husband-chasing crematorium for us, and we will not let Nuonuo suffer any grievances."
He put his thin lips close to Shen Nuo's ear and spoke in a low voice. The hot air he exhaled sprayed on Shen Nuo's ears, making his ears turn red instantly.
"You, what are you doing, we are still in the yard..."
Shen Nuo turned around and glared at him, not forgetting to look around.
Shen Nuo felt relieved when he saw that there was no one else around, but he still did not forget to gently pinch Qin Yan's abdominal muscles.
"Nono..."
Qin Yan was about to hold her in his arms and kiss her, but Shen Nuo quickly stepped out of his arms, then held Nian Nian in his arms and walked towards the room:
"I don't want to bother with you. My son is hungry and needs to be fed. Hurry and bring Sui Sui back."
Qin Yan looked at Shen Nuo's walking away back and laughed out loud. He quickly picked up Sui Sui and followed Shen Nuo.
"Nono, wait for me."
After hearing what he said, Shen Nuo walked faster, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"Nono..."
As soon as they arrived in the room, Qin Yan put the child on the crib and pulled Shen Nuo into his arms.
"There's no one around now, can I kiss you?"
Shen Nuo hammered him on the chest: "Ask, ask, ask, no more kissing... um..."
Just when I was about to say I didn't want to kiss her anymore, my lips were blocked.
Sui Sui Nian Nian lying on the crib stared at him with wide eyes, not knowing what grandma and daddy were doing, so he simply grabbed the toys on the crib and played with them.

Just as Shen Nuo calculated.
A fire started in someone's house in Hejia Village in the middle of the night. The fire was so big that even Taoxiang Village opposite Yunzhu Village could see it.
It’s just that Hejia Village had conflicts with people from other villages, and no one was willing to help put out the fire.
It was already the middle of the night, so no one was willing to make this trip.
"Why are you going? Last time they dared to claim that our village's ox cart belonged to them. If you go there now, what if they say we set the fire?"
Looking at the flames rising into the sky, the people in Taoxiang Village hesitated whether to go to put out the fire, but after hearing what that man said, they immediately gave up the idea of putting out the fire.
Are you kidding? This is an entire village that was burned down. If they are really wrongly accused, the crime of arson would carry the death penalty.
No one dared to take the risk, mainly because they thought the people of Hejiacun were of low character.
"Never mind, as long as it doesn't burn us."
The chief of Taoxiang Village was worried, so he found a few men to keep watch at night. As long as the fire came this way, they would wake up the villagers.
"Don't worry, we're definitely looking forward to it."
Similar situations also occurred in other villages. The people who had fled from famine had already had a hard time and understood the ways of the world better.
They naturally would not go for something that others are unwilling to take risks on.
No one from Shili Village came to help, and some even spat in their direction:
"Oh my god, this fire is burning well."
Yunzhu Village was not far away, so naturally it also heard the noisy sound of the fire.
Shen Nuo opened his eyes, a little confused:
"What's going on outside?"
The little fox has sensitive ears and can easily hear something wrong.
Qin Yan covered him with the quilt and got up.
"Be good, I'll go out and take a look."
As soon as Qin Yan walked out of the yard, he saw flames rising into the sky. He was shocked at first and jumped directly onto the wall.
I was relieved when I saw that the fire was not in my village. Then I saw clearly that it was in Hejia Village.
He raised his eyebrows, sneered, and turned back to the room.
"It's okay. There was a fire in Hejia Village. It can't burn to our side. Uncle and his family dug a big ditch in the fields over there a few days ago."
Shen Nuo also knew about this. Ever since the village chief of Hejia Village came to make trouble last time, Qin Liang originally wanted to beat up his youngest son, but he couldn't do it because Qin's aunt was protecting him.
Can we only vent our anger in Hejia Village? Over there, we just dug a huge ditch in the middle of the land.
It prevents their village from coming over and they can’t occupy the land here.
Because the ditch was dug by Qin Liang, the water in it can only be used by the people of Yunzhu Village, and the people of Hejia Village cannot use it.
Now, by some strange coincidence, it has become a fire-prevention ditch. Even if the fire in Hejia Village gets bigger, it is impossible for it to burn to Yunzhu Village.
"That's good. Will people from our village go over to put out the fire?"
Shen Nuo suddenly remembered that people at that time were very simple and honest, and it was common for one side to come to the aid of all sides when one side was in trouble.
If there was a fire in other villages, Shen Nuo might try to find a way to put it out, but forget it for Hejia Village, as he is not some great saint father.
Qin Yan shook his head:
"Not now. No one in our village can go there. I asked Zhang Hua to go and ask around. He will be back soon."
In fact, he asked Zhang Hua to tell the village chief not to go, otherwise it would be bad if he said that it was done by people from Yunzhu Village.
Qin Liang also knew this logic, and he was not a fool.
The people of Hejia Village suffered heavy losses this time. They might start to blame others at that time. I don’t know if it will involve Qin Hao, after all, Qin Hao had a fight with them some time ago.
"Don't worry, we won't go over there. Go back and tell your master to rest assured and don't come out late at night."
Qin Liang asked Zhang Hua to go back.
Zhang Hua took a look at the situation over there and returned to Qin's house.
Qin Yan just came out, and Zhang Hua told him everything he saw:
"The fire in Hejia Village is very big and it won't reach our village for now. The village chief said that our villagers will not get involved, so you can rest assured."
"Well, did people from other villages go to help?"
Qin Yan asked again.
Zhang Hua shook his head: "No, the situation over there is very bad. The fire was not that big originally, but a strong wind came from nowhere and the fire suddenly spread into the air."
