As soon as Chen Shenghu's words fell, his sister-in-law's laughter came from the side, "Uncle, are you stupid?" You don't really believe in this ginseng, do you? ”

"Didn't you see the thunder ...... in the morning?"

"Alright!" Chen Dayong interrupted his second son's words impatiently, "Your eldest brother said it was a coincidence, don't scare yourself anymore." ”

"Dad, it's not that I want to scare you, the thunder in the morning is really weird, and there are several thunderbolts in a row next to me and my brother."

Speaking of this, Chen Shenghu swallowed his saliva and turned his head to look at his brother, "Brother, do you have something to say?" ”

His brother Chen Jinbiao's expression was unnatural, "What do you want me to say?" If there is really a problem with this ginseng, why don't you split the thunder now? ”

In order to show that he was bold in front of his daughter-in-law, he said with a straight face: "Second brother, if you are so afraid, go back to the house and hide in the quilt!" ”

His daughter-in-law held her son in her arms and giggled.

After laughing for a while, she said, "Uncle, why didn't you find out that you were so timid before?" was actually frightened by a little girl's words. ”

"Don't say it, that girl is very smart." The person who spoke was her mother-in-law, that is, Chen Dayong's daughter-in-law, and everyone called her Aunt Yong.

"What's the spirit? Could it be that her mouth has been opened? ”

Aunt Yong said: "Didn't she say that the daughter-in-law of the Lin family was unlucky? That night, the big girl fell into the pit, although the captain said that these were coincidences, but I still think that the girl is not ordinary. ”

Her daughter-in-law laughed, "What do you mean? Mother, you don't believe this person to participate in the conference and thunder people, right? ”

"I didn't say that, but I just think the girl who was picked up by the Jiang family is quite smart."

"I've lived to such an age, and I've never seen anyone dig up ginseng and be struck by lightning." Chen Dayong said.

His daughter-in-law pondered for a while and agreed: "Yes, that ginseng is not a thunder mother, even if it becomes a jing, it will not be able to thunder, at most, it is faster to run, and it is not easy to be caught." ”

"Okay, don't worry about it," Chen Dayong put the chopsticks on the table and said, "This bet is won by our family!" Tomorrow, he will not only be able to get a big bag of fern roots from Jiang Qingshan's family, but also five yuan from his eldest son. ”

Chen Jinbiao smiled: "Dad, we can make a lot of money this time!" Not only made money, but also earned face, that Dadongzi has to apologize to us in person tomorrow, it's refreshing to think about it! I'm going to scold him when the time comes! ”

"That's right! If you want others to give us face, you have to be tough enough to do things, and you have to fight for reason if you are unreasonable! ”

Speaking of this, Chen Dayong looked at his second son, "Huzi, you and your brother study hard, you are still not bold enough." ”

"Got it, Dad." Chen Shenghu lowered his head.

His father put the ginseng on the table, bragged again, and the more he talked, the more proud he became, and patted his chest, "As long as your father is still in the position of scorekeeper, even the branch secretary will give us face, right?" ”

"That's for sure! The work of the branch secretary is also remembered by your father! ”

The family was chatting energetically, and there was a sudden "boom" outside, only to see lightning and thunder outside the window, and lightning was like a giant dragon hovering in the air, cutting through the sky with teeth and claws, and illuminating the night as bright as day in an instant.

This thunder was magnificent, and in comparison, the thunder that struck near the Chen brothers in the morning was like a joke.

The older generation in the village said that the weather was strange, and their mouths were saying, "Ah! Thunder and snow, blood everywhere, either plague or catastrophe! ”

"Dad," Chen Shenghu said in fear, "it can't be that ginseng essence, right?" I—I think we'd better hurry up...... Hurry up and send the ginseng back to Jiang's house, right? ”

His father was also a little panicked at this time, so he pretended to be calm and said, "What are you talking nonsense? It's just ordinary thunder, haven't you ever seen thunder? What does it have to do with ginseng? No more nonsense, be careful that I beat you! ”

Seeing that his father raised his hand to hit him, Chen Shenghu hurriedly dodged back, "I won't say it, let's stop talking about it, it's true." ”

Less than five minutes later, another burst of thunder rang out, "Boom! ”

It was louder than before, like a warning.

"Woo woo wow wow...... Chen Jinbiao's son was frightened by the thunder, raised his head and cried non-stop, "woo woo woo ......"

"Biaozi, take your son back to the house!" Chen Dayong said.

His eldest son looked at the ginseng on the table, hesitated, and finally gritted his teeth, didn't say anything, held his son in one hand, and pulled his daughter-in-law back to the house with the other.

Jiang family, well-fed Xiao Lingbao propped his hands on the window, looked at the sky with a pair of golden eyes, and counted in his mouth, "99, 98......"

Her mother carefully opened the curtain, and saw that Lingbao was silently counting, but without saying anything, she slowly lowered the curtain.

"Mother, what is Lingbao doing?" Wu Chaozi asked in a low voice.

"Count by the window, and don't go in and make a noise with her." Shen Su'e made a "shhh

Wu Chaozi originally wanted her mother to ask Lingbao if the thunder outside had anything to do with her, but now she looked confused, "Count?" ”

His eldest brother explained, "I guess Lingbao is giving the Chen family a chance, Lingbao's heart is too soft, and he won't immediately thunder and smash the Chen family." ”

"Oh, it makes sense, if that guy Chen Dayong knew his two sons a little bit and returned the ginseng to us before Lingbao finished counting, Lingbao might not have split them." Sihaizi said.

His fifth brother "tsk" twice, shook his head and said, "Their kind of people don't cry when they don't see the coffin, and they will definitely not return it." ”

Lingbao counted down to "1", and the golden light in his eyes became brighter.

At the same time, a thunderbolt fell from the sky and slashed straight towards the Chen family's kitchen, and then, red sparks splashed everywhere, and the entire kitchen turned into a sea of fire in an instant.

"Oops! Boss! Seeing the flames outside the window, Aunt Yong shouted anxiously, "It's on fire!" The kitchen is on fire! Oops, the food is all in the kitchen, what can I do? Two big bags of corn on the cob, oops......"

Soon, the whole village knew that the Chen family had been struck by lightning.

"Did you hear that? Chen's house was on fire, and the thunder just now slashed straight into the kitchen, and the whole kitchen was on fire. ”

"Oh, is that guy okay?"

"It's fine, but it's probably burned out."

The people who lived near Chen's house helped put out the fire, and when they saw that the kitchen had been burned to ashes, they comforted and said, "Fortunately, this kitchen is far away from the other houses, otherwise such a big fire would have burned down all of your houses." ”

Many of them whispered, "This is too smart, isn't it?" Didn't they still make a bet with the Jiang family in the morning? Because of the ginseng thing. ”

"Yes, I thought that the Chen family must have won this time, but I didn't expect their family to be really struck by lightning."

"So they robbed the Jiang family of that ginseng?"

"No, they didn't rob people or things once or twice, before my father went into the mountains to dig up a few pieces of sweet potatoes, they were robbed by Chen Dayong's two sons, they threatened my father, if they don't hand it over, my father's work will be halved next year, but it's arrogant."
