She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 947 Fire Scene

Mrs. Ma followed their gaze towards the children and assumed that everyone agreed with her.

That’s what it is!

What do those little brats know?

Just give them two pieces of candy and they will forget their mother’s age. Do you expect them to remember?

What a joke!

She had just moved to Changjie. Her previous residence was far away from here, so she didn't know what was happening in Changjie, nor did she know how powerful the three children of Ye Shu's family were.

However, Aunt Gu, who has always lived on Chang Street, knows about it.

She pulled Ma Dasao's sleeve, wanting her to calm down first so that she could tell her how powerful these children were.

As a result, Mrs. Ma didn't appreciate her kindness at all. She raised her hand to block her hand and glared at her, signaling her not to ruin her business.

Then she got angry at Ye Shu, who was only talking to the children and didn't show any concern for her, the victim:

"What's wrong with you as a mother? Your child got into trouble, and this is your attitude? You don't even show any reaction?"

Ye Shu's expression was calm, with a faint smile on his face:

"Sister-in-law, first of all, your house is on fire. I deeply sympathize with you. Please also take a look at what was burned. It's best to write it down so that you can make a claim later."

Mrs. Ma was quite satisfied with what she said, and her face looked much better:

"I've checked. The stove is burned, the roof is damaged, the back window and the back wall are damaged, and some cabinets and furniture are made of wood. They caught fire easily."

Ye Shu nodded, looked at her, and asked again: "Really, have you remembered everything?"

Ma Dasao raised her brows and said, "Of course! Stop dilly-dallying and pay the money right away!"

"They need to pay the money, and these naughty kids need to be taught a lesson! They're so brave at such a young age! They dare to set fire to other people's homes, so they need to be taught a lesson!"

Guaiguai immediately argued: "It wasn't us! We didn't set the fire!"

Ma Dasao immediately pointed at her and said, "Hey! You little girl..."

Before she could finish her curse, Ye Shu stepped forward and stood in front of Guaiguai, opened her hand that was pointing at the children, and warned in a calm voice:

"It's too early to say this now. If the investigation shows that the fire is indeed related to the children, then if you have any compensation to pay or any grievances or anger, please tell me."

"I'll pay the money and educate the child."

What she meant was that even if her child made a mistake, it was not someone else's turn to educate him.

Moreover, when she said "if the fire has something to do with the children", it means that the fire may not have been set by the children on their own initiative.

Intentionally setting fire to someone else's home and accidentally starting a fire are two different concepts.

Arson is a bad behavior and a mistake made in subjective consciousness.

But the accidental fire may have been caused by the children playing around and not realizing that fire could be so dangerous, so they made a mistake.

She believed that the three little ones were not lying, and they had no subjective intention to set the fire. In the end, even if the fire in Ma Dasao's house was related to them, it was just an unintentional mistake.

The consequences of these two behaviors are different, and the direction of punishment and education required is also completely different.

Naughty children who play with fire must be educated, but she will never let them bear responsibilities that they don't have to bear.

They are still young, and if this matter is not handled properly now, it may leave them with a lifelong psychological trauma.

So, after saying this, she left the children in the care of Mrs. Jin and walked towards Mrs. Ma's house.

Seeing that she was still so arrogant, Ma Dasao was very disdainful and snorted coldly: "Don't be so rude! You are so young and stubborn. You will regret it later!"

Ye Shu replied indifferently, "Yeah, if you have something to say, think about it and say it. You're already so old, and if you regret it and suffer, I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it."

Mrs. Ma is angry!

She continued to accuse and curse the other people in the yard: "She has never seen such a woman! Bah!"

"Her own child made a mistake, but she didn't teach him a lesson and instead kept talking nonsense?! I've really learned a lot! This is the first time I've seen this! It's really eye-opening!"

"No wonder these kids are so lawless! So they have a mother like that! It's true that if the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked! Haha!"

"What are you looking at? I want to see what you can find! Can you make my house look good just by looking at it for a few seconds? Restoring it to be as good as new! I'm dying of laughter. If you really have such ability, take a closer look. I won't stop you at all. Hurry up and take a closer look!"

She mocked and laughed loudly at Ye Shu with the people around her, but suddenly, her laughter stopped.

Because she saw Ye Shu suddenly walk out of her house.

Ye Shu had a determined smile on his face, which made her heart beat inexplicably and she had a very ominous premonition.

Could it be...that she saw something?

Will not!

She arranged it so perfectly, there was no way she could have discovered it!

She coughed twice, straightened her chest, and said calmly:

"Have you finished reading it? Please don't waste our time! Hurry up and pay me back! My house burned down like this! It's going to take time to repair! I don't know how to cook these past two days! Hurry up, hurry up!"

Ye Shu looked at her coldly, and the more anxious he became, the more guilty he felt.

She looked past the onlookers in the yard and said to Xiao Gao who was standing at the gate:

"Please call some brothers over here to fence off this yard. Don't let anyone leave. I want to find the real arsonist!"

Xiao Gao immediately gave instructions, and a young soldier ran away. He took several other soldiers to guard the courtyard gate and wall to prevent anyone from jumping over the wall and escaping.

As soon as Ye Shu said this, the courtyard exploded with a buzzing noise: "What does this mean? Does this mean someone really set the fire on purpose?"

"It really has nothing to do with these kids?"

"What the hell is going on? Who burned down Ma Dasao's house for no reason?"

Ma Dasao felt uneasy in her heart, but her face became even angrier. She jumped up and accused Ye Shu: "What are you doing, woman? Tell me clearly!"

Ye Shu pointed at the fire scene and said:

"This is the kitchen, right? It's normal to have grease stains in the kitchen. It just means your home isn't clean enough. But it's not normal to have grease on the cabinets, stools, tables, and even on the walls, windowsills, and windows, isn't it?"

Ma Dasao's heart suddenly jumped, and she said stubbornly:

"How is this abnormal? I just moved in not long ago, and it was the tenants above who made it dirty, and I haven't even cleaned it up yet! The oil was there because they did it before!"

Zhao Lijuan spoke up: "You moved in after me, but it's been almost two months now. Haven't you cleaned it up in such a long time?"

Ma Dasao's voice was cold and hard: "I just haven't washed it yet, what's the matter?"
