Chapter 57 Revocation of the Scorekeeper
Chen Dayong's expression froze, and he couldn't wipe his face.
When he hesitated, his daughter-in-law hurriedly dragged his two sons to Da Dongzi, "Quick, you guys hurry up and apologize to Da Dongzi!" ”
"Mother......" Chen Jinbiao looked reluctant, "Why do you apologize?" The house is burning down, now we have to put out the fire first! ”
"The fire is so big, no one else helps, just rely on a few of us, how can we put out the fire?" After saying it angrily, Aunt Yong continued, "Lingbao, this doll has a bright mouth, she said that it is useful to apologize, that is, it is useful." ”
Her daughter-in-law heard this, and hurriedly pushed her husband, "Oh, you apologize quickly, your father's house is burned down, and it will be our turn to live immediately, if the house is gone, I tell you, I can't live this day, woo woo woo woo ......"
Seeing his daughter-in-law and son crying together, Chen Jinbiao had no choice but to bow his head and say to Da Dongzi, "I'm sorry." ”
On the side, his brother also hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry." ”
"Nothing happened," Chen Dayong said, "isn't it an apology?" What's the matter with this ginseng? You have to burn down all of our houses, right? ”
His daughter-in-law, Aunt Yong, hurriedly asked Lingbao: "What, little sister, your name is Lingbao, right?" Lingbao, aunt asks you, we all apologize for this, why hasn't the fire been extinguished yet? Do you have something else to do? ”
"Did they apologize?" Lingbao pointed at Chen Jinbiao and Chen Shenghu, "It's not that saying 'I'm sorry' is called an apology, ginseng essence can feel sincerity, and if there is no real apology in my heart, this fire will definitely not be extinguished." ”
After speaking, she pointed at Chen Dayong and said, "Besides, this uncle didn't even say 'I'm sorry' just now, he was the one who took the lead in snatching the ginseng in the morning." ”
"Did you hear that? You all apologize again," Aunt Yong yelled at her two sons, turned to her husband and said, "You are also ...... in charge."
Chen Dayong saw that the onlookers were covering their mouths and laughing, and said with a stalk around his neck: "I don't apologize, I didn't do anything wrong, now my house has been burned, but we are unlucky, why do you want me to apologize?" ”
"Big brother, they don't apologize, let's go, leave them alone, it's not our house that burned down anyway." Lingbao said.
Dadongzi smiled and nodded, "Yes, let's go home and sleep!" ”
Seeing that the Jiang family turned around to leave, Aunt Yong was so anxious that tears were about to fall out, and she hurriedly grabbed Da Dongzi, "Don't go, I apologize to you, woo woo...... I'm sorry for you, I didn't raise these two sons well, woowoo woo ......"
Saying this, she knelt on the ground and said while wiping her tears: "You obviously dug up this ginseng first, but Biaozi and Huzi snatched the ginseng, and cheekily went to your house to catch the thief, how can I raise such a son......"
Seeing that her mother knelt down for Dadongzi, Chen Jinbiao and Chen Shenghu felt sour in their hearts, and shouted "Mother", and they wanted to help her up.
"Don't help me, I don't have a son like you, this house was built by me and your father, now it's okay, let you destroy it all, burn all the food, if the house is gone, let's not live, wait for death."
After Aunt Yong finished crying bitterly, his two sons finally shed tears of remorse, and at the same time knelt on the ground and apologized to Dadongzi.
"I'm not human, I deserve to die," Chen Jinbiao cried, "I shouldn't have snatched your ginseng, scolded you, and pushed you to the ground......"
His younger brother also apologized, "I'm sorry, Da Dongzi." ”
Seeing them kneeling on the ground and weeping bitterly, Lingbao said, "There is still one person left." ”
All of a sudden, everyone present looked at Chen Dayong.
"Dad, come over and apologize!"
"Dad, don't be stunned......"
With a loud "boom", the beams that had been burned to charcoal fell to the ground, breaking in half, and the roof was also burned and collapsed.
Amid the screams, the fire spread to the two houses next to it.
Chen Dayong watched his house being burned to ashes, the cabinets and beds in it were all burned down, and he couldn't care about any face, so he knelt down in front of Da Dongzi with a "plop", "Dongzi, uncle is sorry for you, I shouldn't have robbed you of ginseng." ”
After speaking, he slapped himself twice and scolded: "My two sons are not things, and I myself am not a thing!" ”
As soon as his words fell, something seemed to fall on top of him.
"What?" Everyone looked up and saw the raindrops the size of beans falling in the sky, and they were all extremely surprised and surprised, "Is this raining?" ”
"Boss, it's raining," Aunt Yong said excitedly, "Woo woo, this ginseng essence really heard us apologize, and our house can be saved." ”
Although the villagers were surprised to see the rain getting heavier and heavier, it was too cold after getting wet, and they couldn't continue to watch the excitement at Chen's house, so they hurriedly ran home to hide from the rain.
"Mother, let's go home quickly." San Leizi said with his hands covering his head.
Shen Su'e nodded hurriedly, "Let's go, hurry home!" ”
The rain fell for more than half an hour.
The next day, everyone was talking about the strange pouring rain last night, "It's weird! It can't rain in our village until March, and it's been so cold lately that the snow hasn't even begun to melt, and it's frozen in the air. ”
"It's the rain of ginseng essence, don't you know about the Chen family and the Jiang family?" The people who watched the whole scene talked excitedly.
The older man sighed, "It's so fresh, I've heard that the dragon king will rain, but I didn't expect this ginseng to also rain and thunder, what kind of ginseng is this?" ”
When many people in the village heard about this, they ran to Jiang's house to see the true face of ginseng essence, "Aunt Shen, can you show us the ginseng that your eldest son dug up?" What the hell is it? Why is it so powerful, it can call the wind and rain. ”
"Let Da Dongzi bury him back in the mountains in the morning," Shen Su'e said, "That thing is too powerful, I don't dare to put it at home." ”
"Huh? Buried back? I want to say goodbye. ”
"If you want to worship in the mountain temple, it is said that ginseng is the baby of the mountain god, and it is blessed by the mountain god, and I estimate that the thunder and rain yesterday is the mountain god."
In order to prevent others from shifting the focus of this matter to Lingbao, Shen Su'e had to say her words again when she met people.
Obviously, it was her nonsense, everyone thought it made sense, and turned their heads to tell others, saying that the Chen family had done too many bad things and was targeted by the mountain god, and the mountain god was deliberately trying to make things difficult for the Chen family.
Many people in the village had been bullied by Chen Dayong and his two sons before, and they felt very relieved when they heard about it.
Many people ran to Captain Li's house, "Captain, then Chen Dayong was punished by the mountain god and his house burned down, and you still let him be the scorekeeper of our village?" With such a person as a scorekeeper, it is no wonder that our village's annual harvest is worse than that of other villages. ”
Li Guangzheng frowned, "What mountain god?" What nonsense? ”
"You were also at your uncle's house that day, you saw all the thunder and rain, who else can have such a great ability except for the mountain god?"
"Captain Li, don't stop saying it's a coincidence! That Li Dayong relied on himself to be your uncle, and after becoming a scorekeeper, he was powerful every day, and even the mountain god couldn't stand it, if you still protect him, I will sue the town production team! ”
The more everyone talked, the more angry they became, and they all demanded that Chen Dayong be removed from his post.
