634 Thunder
Lin Yuelan looked at the departing carriage, and the corners of her mouth curled up. The smile on her face was like a ray of sunlight in the winter, melting the cold snow.
In the carriage, Zhou Changsheng asked Zhou Wencai uneasily, ” Wen ‘Er, are we really going to do this? ”
Zhou Wencai said very firmly, ” dad, didn’t you hear what Lin Yuelan said? We, the Zhou family’s side branches, have always been dogs of the direct bloodline. We can be summoned and dismissed at will. When our values and resources are used up, they will cast us aside and ignore us.
“Father, even if you want to continue to be a dog of the Zhou family, I don’t want my children and grandchildren to follow our path and become their dogs.
“That’s why, father, I want to fight for it. Even if it’s not for myself, I want to fight for a future for my grandson and his descendants.”
Upon hearing Zhou Wencai’s words, Zhou Changsheng’s attitude towards the Zhou family was shaken. However, he still said worriedly, “But, son, you have to know that if we work with Lin yuelan, we will lose everything if we fail!”
However, Zhou Wencai said, ” but father, you also said that this is just in case we fail. If we don’t fail, then our Zhou family will truly be the master of the family and become a big family in Beijing!”
Zhou Changsheng was silent. “Although we’re working with Lin Yuelan, your father feels like we’re being controlled by her!” This was the real reason why he was not willing to cooperate.
The feeling of being led by the nose by a little girl was not good, and what was even worse was being threatened by a little girl.
He didn’t say if they would work together in the future. However, that little girl wouldn’t allow them to do that.
In other words, the initiative in the cooperation with Lin yuelan had always been in her hands.
Therefore, even though he wanted to return to the capital, he did not want to lose control of himself.
However, there was only one way to return to the capital. Otherwise, they would be stuck in the poor anding County forever.
Upon hearing his father’s words, Zhou Wencai fell silent for a moment before saying, ” father, as long as we don’t touch Lin yuelan’s bottom line, I believe she won’t do anything to us.”
He thought of the few bolts of lightning.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Lin yuelan was unfathomable.
She actually caused thunder!
Thunder in winter was something that had never happened before.
He didn’t think that Lin yuelan was a demon or a monster because he had heard that demons were most afraid of thunder and lightning. However, he didn’t dare to think too deeply about Lin yuelan’s mystery.
His intuition told him that those lightning bolts were triggered by Lin yuelan.
Therefore, he believed that as long as they didn’t cross Lin yuelan’s bottom line, she wouldn’t be a treacherous person and would definitely not do anything to them.
However, he was just like his father. The feeling of being led by the nose, especially by a little girl, was terrible. But for now, they could only accept it.
…
“Did you guys hear that?”
“Yes, I heard it! It’s a clear day in winter, and there will be thunder on this day.”
“What do you guys think happened to….?”
It was an unusual weather pattern that made people feel worried, terrified, and uneasy.
“Do you guys think it’s…”
They meant a change to the most powerful person in the imperial court.
However, they didn’t dare to say such outrageous words out loud because if they did, they would be executed.
“Shush, you can’t say it!” Someone immediately stopped him in fear.
“But this weather is really abnormal!”
“Yeah, who knows what’s going on?”
…
Almost the entire village was talking about the thunder yesterday.
There was not a trace of curiosity or surprise on their faces, only shock, panic, fear, uneasiness, and fear.
At Anding County…
“Did you guys hear that?”
“Yes, I heard the sound of thunder.”
“yeah, it’s winter. Where did the lightning come from? ”
“That’s right. It’s too abnormal. It is winter, but there was actually lightning! It’s unbelievable!”
Inside the Zhou mansion, the father and son of the Zhou family sat quietly in the living room. They looked at each other without saying a word, but their hearts were not calm.
Then, Zhou Changsheng sighed and said, ” Wen ‘Er, everyone in An Ding County is talking about the lightning yesterday!
