I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Chapter 143 The ancestral hall was struck by lightning

Ling Chu lowered his eyes and looked at the three incense sticks in his hand carefully, but found that there was nothing wrong with the incense.

Although the fragrance was not of high quality, she didn't see anything wrong with it in terms of smell, dryness, etc.

Ling Chu turned to look at the incense burner again. The three incense sticks that the concubine had just lit were burning well.

  Could it be that the three sticks of incense she just took were of poor quality?

Seeing her standing still, Mrs. Tai urged her with a stern face, "Why are you standing there? Why don't you burn incense for your ancestors again?"

Ling Chu glanced at her lightly, without saying anything. He picked up three more incense sticks, lit them with fire sticks, bowed and bowed, then walked to the altar table and put the incense in his hand into the incense burner.

What Ling Chu didn't expect was that just as she took her hand back, the incense suddenly went out.

 And just like before, the three incense sticks were broken in the middle.

“Hey, eldest lady, what have you done to disgrace the family tradition? Even the ancestors are angry and refuse to accept your incense.” The second lady’s sarcastic voice sounded at the door of the ancestral hall.

It turns out that when Mrs. Dong called Ling Chu away just now, Mrs. Dong and others hesitated and followed.

As soon as she walked to the door of the ancestral hall, she happened to see the scene just now, and the second lady immediately started taunting her in a weird way.

Lingchu frowned, raised his hand again to take out half of the incense from the incense burner, turned his head and glanced at the second lady with a cold gaze, "Even if the second aunt doesn't speak, no one will treat you as a mute."

The second lady suddenly felt a fire in her heart, but when she met Ling Chu's cold and deep gaze, she suddenly shuddered.

Seeing that she had shut her mouth, Ling Chu withdrew his gaze and walked towards the place where the incense was placed again.

Behind the back, the second lady’s tense heartstrings relaxed, followed by anger.

As expected, she is the bane of punishment for the six relatives. The look in this dead girl's eyes just now was really scary.

Lingchu ignored the second lady. In order to avoid the incense breaking again, she deliberately opened a new bundle of incense.

 She took out three, lit them, and walked to the altar.

She has just looked at this bundle of incense, so there should be no more problems.

Just as he was about to put the incense in place, he heard the madam say coldly, "Kneel down."

Ling Chu made a move and his eyes became cold, but in the end he did not speak and turned around to walk to the futon beside him.

She doesn't want to cause any trouble, she just wants to kneel down and worship her ancestors, that's all.

 The Second Madam saw that she did not dare to resist the Tai Madam at all, and a look of schadenfreude appeared on her face.

Lingchu walked to the futon and saw that it was still clean. He bent his knees and knelt down.

However, the next second, she watched the three incense sticks in her hand go out again.

 Then it was cut off in the middle.

Lingchu was completely stunned.

While I was dazed, there was suddenly a ping-pong-pong sound in my ears.

 Looking up, his eyes widened instantly.

The spiritual tablets that were originally neatly placed on the altar were all dumped on the altar.

The lady who witnessed all this was also stunned.

Like Ling Chu, she thought it was just an accident when Xiang Mie died.

 But the same thing happened one after another, making her suspicious.

 The first sister put on three sticks of incense. Not only were all three sticks extinguished, but the incense was also broken in the middle every time.

Is this really the ancestor's dissatisfaction with Chu Jie'er?

At the entrance of the ancestral hall, the moment she saw the spiritual tablets falling, Mrs. Dong’s hands suddenly grabbed the handkerchief tightly.

The second lady gloated over the misfortune and opened her mouth to ridicule, "I said that the eldest girl must have behaved badly and made all the ancestors dissatisfied..."

Lingchu was frowning in thought, already impatient with the second lady's repeated jumping around.

His right hand made a quick gesture at the side of his body and flicked it in the direction of the second lady.

The wife was upset when she saw that the second wife was still chattering, so she couldn't help but scolded her coldly, "Shut up."

As soon as the words fell, the second lady’s voice disappeared instantly.

 The whole ancestral hall became quiet.

 Everyone thought that the second lady was reprimanded by the dowager, so they shut up. But only the second wife knew otherwise.

 Because she suddenly found herself unable to make a sound or speak.

 The Second Madam did not believe in evil, but she opened and closed her lips several times, but could not make any sound.

 A panic suddenly surged in my heart.

 The more nervous and frightened the second lady became, the less able she found herself to speak.

He was so frightened that he tightly grasped Dong beside him with both hands.

Ms. Dong was completely immersed in her own thoughts at this time, and did not notice anything strange about the second lady. After she grabbed her sleeve, she shook it off without thinking.

 The second lady was shocked and angry after Mrs. Dong shook her hand away.

 The third lady and Aunt Wen on the side glanced at her and saw that she looked shocked and angry, but they didn't take it to heart. Both of them thought that the second lady felt humiliated because she was reprimanded by the dowager, and could not get off the stage.

  I never thought that Ling Chu had done anything.

The wife didn’t pay much attention to the daughters-in-law at the door of the ancestral hall, and said to Ling Chu with a dark face, "Sister Chu, kowtow to your ancestors. From today on, you will stay in the ancestral hall and reflect on it..."

 Boom!

Before Mrs. Tai finished her words, a deafening thunder suddenly came from the sky.

 Everyone was startled by the sudden thunder.

 Subconsciously, they all turned their heads to look at the sky.

However, what everyone found strange was that outside the ancestral hall, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Lingchu's dark gaze steadily returned from the clear sky outside the ancestral hall, and fell on the half-remaining sandalwood in his hand. After a pause, he turned to look at the spiritual tablets that were all lying on the altar table.

 She believed that ever since she was a child, she had never done anything to bring shame to the ancestors of the Ling family.

Since she is right, she has a clear conscience.

Throwing the remaining half of the sandalwood in his hand toward the paper burning pot aside, Ling Chu clapped his hands, propped himself up on the futon, and stood up.

Hearing the commotion, the madam turned around and saw her standing upright in front of the altar table, her already black face turning even darker with anger.

 “kneel down…”

 Click!

As soon as Mrs. Tai spoke her words, a dazzling white light suddenly struck down from high in the sky.

 Following this, there was another huge thunder blast!

Has been frightening everyone to the point of being shaken, but at the same time, a strange thought suddenly arises in their hearts. Why does it feel like Na Lei is objecting to the madam asking the eldest girl to kneel down in front of the ancestral spirit tablet?

The blood on Dong’s face suddenly faded away, leaving only a pale complexion.

Before he could recover, Xia Zhi, who was waiting outside the ancestral hall, suddenly burst in with a nervous look on his face.

 “Girl, the ancestral hall is flooded, run quickly.”

The people standing at the door subconsciously looked up at the top of the ancestral hall.

 Her expression suddenly changed.

A large fire is rising on the upper right side of the ancestral hall.

Aunt Wen's heart tightened, but she did not turn around and run away. Instead, she followed Xia Zhi and rushed into the ancestral hall. She held the Taihu's arm and said, "Mrs. Tai, go quickly."

Ling Chu had already smelled a strong burning smell, and regardless of the surprise in his heart, he was pulled out of the ancestral hall quickly by Xia Zhi.

 When they were far away from the ancestral hall, everyone stopped and turned around.

 However, when they saw the blazing fire, the third lady and Aunt Wen both looked startled.

The location where the fire broke out in the ancestral hall was actually the direction where the lightning struck just now.

 The Lingfu Ancestral Hall was burned down by fire from heaven!
