Chapter 91: Scourge
Grandma Xiang and Fugui's sister-in-law both screamed in surprise. Fugui, who was sitting outside driving the car, even somersaulted and fell to the ground because of the bison's movement.
Mr. Xiang quickly got out of the car, faced the east, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. He already understood what his little granddaughter meant. There should be the word "disaster" behind the sky, indicating that a natural disaster was coming.
The little granddaughter was reincarnated by an elf in the mountains. She inadvertently revealed the secret of heaven, so God sent thunder and lightning as a warning to the little granddaughter.
Not long after, the rapidly gathering clouds slowly dispersed, and everything returned to normal. If it weren't for the kneeling buffalo and the rich man lying on the ground, everything just seemed to be just a dream.
Mr. Xiang stood up with lingering fear, and helped Fugui up with strength. Fugui asked with a confused look: "Dad, what on earth is going on."
"Nothing happened, Xiao Hei was frightened, so you fell." Mr. Xiang said lightly, but his heart was beating rapidly.
When Fu Bao withdrew his spiritual power, he found that his spirit had shrunk. He quickly looked at the vines on his wrists. Sure enough, the vines were also wrapped softly around his wrists, as if they had lost their spiritual power.
God's punishment is severe. I don't know how much merit points have been taken from me. It seems that I must be careful in my words and deeds in the future. Fu Bao has firmly remembered the lesson of this time.
There was no longer the joyful atmosphere in the oxcart, and all that was left was fear and annoyance. Grandma Xiang blamed herself in her heart. If she hadn't asked blindly, there would have been no divine punishment, but she also guessed it from Fu Bao's mouth.
the truth.
The reason why Fu Bao grows so much food is to prepare for natural disasters, so they must also prepare, including food, drink, and clothing for the whole family.
Also, if a natural disaster comes, you will definitely have to flee, and you will have to prepare the things you need on the way out. But I don’t know when this natural disaster will come, and I feel anxious.
People in the village were also working in their own fields or at the foot of the mountain. They were frightened by the sudden thunder and lightning. Everyone quickly packed their farm tools. It was going to rain and they had to go home quickly.
But in a blink of an eye, the sky turned sunny again, and the sun was shining brightly. This... the people in the village couldn't understand it. They all gathered together and started chattering, but they couldn't name a single person who was ugly.
Xiangchu was standing at the foot of the mountain when he saw lightning striking down, and his heart palpitated inexplicably. He first thought of Fu Bao. Ever since Fu Bao was born in the family, life has changed dramatically.
There was also the backyard at home. No one except his grandparents, uncle and aunt was allowed to enter. He didn't know what the secret was in the backyard, but it must have something to do with Fu Bao.
Now that thunder and lightning appear at the same time, will it cause danger to Fu Bao? Thinking of this, Xiangchu picked up his backpack and ran home.
From a distance, Xiangchu saw a sneaky figure wandering at the door of his house. He looked like his second uncle. What was he doing here? Could it be that he wanted to steal something.
Xiangchu looked around, picked up a stone from the ground, and held it tightly in his hand. If his second uncle wanted to take action, he would not be a vegetarian.
"Xiangchu, where is your grandpa? Where has he gone?" Hantu felt Youdao's eyes staring closely at him. He looked back and saw Xiangchu looking at him with a wary look on his face. He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Why did you come to my house?" Xiangchu asked.
"You kid, why didn't you call someone? I came to see your grandpa, isn't he here?" Xianghantu was a little unhappy. He was not a thief, so there was a need to be so defensive.
"My grandpa is not here, why are you looking for him?" Xiangchu asked again.
"You... where have you read all those books? Do you understand filial piety? I am your second uncle." Hantu was really angry. Of course he came to see his elder brother for something.
The two were in a stalemate when a bell sounded. Turning around, it turned out that it was Xiao Hei who was pulling the bullock cart back. Xiangchu quickly ran over and grabbed the bison.
But when his eyes saw the scars on the joints of the bison's front legs and the clothes on his second uncle's body, his expression became a little strange. The second uncle and Xiao Hei had wrestled.
"Fugui, where is your father?"
Just when Xiang Chu was about to ask, he heard the voice of Xiang Hantu. Mr. Xiang got off the oxcart, glanced at his second brother, and asked coldly: "What do you want from me?"
Xiangchu turned around and opened the gate of the yard, letting Fugui drive the ox cart in, and then closed the door with a clang. The meaning was very clear, if you have anything to say, just say it outside and don't come in.
Hantu felt a little uncomfortable. The eldest brother's children were okay if they didn't study, but they became ignorant after studying.
"Brother, I want to send Xiang Ding to a private school this year, but I don't have enough money, so I want to borrow some from you." Han Tu thought of the purpose of his visit and said quickly.
"Borrow a little, how much?" Mr. Xiang asked.
"Twelve taels, no, fifteen taels." Xiang Hantu said quickly.
"Fifteen taels, but the amount required to accept students in a private school is ten taels." Mr. Xiang asked.
"The kid doesn't have to eat, drink, and have sex. You should prepare some money for him." Han Tu rolled his eyes. No wonder he couldn't pass the exam. With his brain, it would be weird if he could pass the exam.
"But the private school includes food and accommodation," Mr. Xiang said again.
"Then you don't need to buy some clothes, shoes and socks. The Four Treasures of the Study. Brother, why do you have so many problems?" Han Tu said with a guilty conscience.
"Okay, I won't ask. I have something to do at home, so I'm rude." Mr. Xiang turned around and left.
"Hey, brother, money." Hantu grabbed Mr. Xiang's sleeve.
"Yin, what kind of money? Do I owe you any money?" Mr. Xiang asked.
"This, I...don't borrow it." Xiang Hantu was really unhappy.
"Borrow it, when will you pay it back and what will you use to pay it back?" Mr. Xiang asked.
Xiang Hantu opened his mouth, but did not make a sound. Since he borrowed it, of course he will not pay it back. You are my eldest brother, and it is nothing to owe you a few taels of silver.
"Second brother, if you come to borrow three or five taels, I'm willing to give it to you, because you also want to send your children to school, but you have evil intentions and want to get money from me, so I'm sorry, I don't have a copper.
I won’t give it to you.”
Xiang Hantu watched Mr. Xiang turn around and enter his yard, with a sinister coldness in his eyes. "Brother, don't blame me. You are unkind and I am unjust."
The roots of the trees and plants at the door automatically moved without wind, absorbing the hostility emanating from the Han people and sending it to Fubao. Unfortunately, Fubao was adjusting his breath and recuperating due to the punishment from heaven just now, and did not take into account the feedback from the grassroots.
A few days later, Xiang Hantu took Xiang Ding to Qingshan Academy. Xiang Ding's face was clean and innocent, but her clothes were a little shabby, but she was clean and tidy.
The old janitor learned that Xiang Ding was the cousin of Xiang Qian, the head of the county case, and couldn't help but be stunned. Although they were cousins in the next room, the difference between the two families was huge.
