Chapter 144: Idleness

As soon as Wu Dachuan and Wu's mother went out, Wu Changhai and Wu Changhe hurriedly expressed their intentions:

"Daddy, you can save me and my second brother, if you don't save us, we will really die, go to be soldiers, how can anyone come back alive, our family really can't produce twenty taels......"

The Lan family and the Li family also quickly knelt in front of Wu Dachuan and begged them to save their lives.

Wu Dachuan and Wu's mother didn't want to mention how uncomfortable they were, they really wanted to make up the silver, but where did they get so much silver, in addition to selling medicinal herbs, they could make up enough twenty taels, how could they have extra silver for them.

And what made them sad was that how many people around were staring, and they knelt directly at the door of their sister's house, which was breaking Wu Xiaoqin's birthday.

Seeing this, Su Zimu immediately spoke:

"Ouch, uncle and second uncle, what are you talking about, what are you saving? What do you want grandpa and grandma to do, you can just say it, it's not clear, who knows what to do?"

Wu Changhai and Wu Changhe always felt that Su Zimu's words were particularly problematic, but they couldn't figure it out for a while, and the Li family had already spoken:

"Daddy, you can't just care about the third brother, no matter whether the eldest brother and the head of the family live or die, our family can't afford this silver, each household needs twenty taels, Daddy and Mother, for the sake of the eldest brother and the head of the family, it is your son, just save our family." ”

When Su Zimu heard this, she suddenly smiled and said:

"So that's what it means, I want my grandmother and grandfather to give forty taels of silver, right?"

Wu Changhai and Wu Changhe were speechless, why did Su Zimu keep repeating this!

But they could only nod and say:

"We really don't have any money, otherwise how could we come to beg our father. ”

As soon as they finished speaking, Su Zimu suddenly said coldly:

"Joke, I'll ask you, you are also parents, is it possible that your child is going to die, and you will not be saved?!"

Wu Changhe and Wu Changhai were stunned on the spot, but they reacted quickly, and their eyes immediately lit up and said:

"Su Wuya, if you don't respect your elders, forget it, why do you slander us here, how can we not save our own children when they die!

Su Zimu said:

"Then what do you mean is that grandma and grandpa are not as good as animals? Otherwise, how can you come to ask grandma and grandpa? You are parents, and grandma and grandpa are also parents, if they have the ability, they will die and will not be saved, and they are still waiting for you to come and beg them?"

The other people who watched the excitement were stunned for a moment, and then they realized that they would react, yes, if there was silver, who would want their children to be soldiers and die.

Wu Changhe and Wu Changhai are now kneeling at the door of someone else's house to persecute the two old men like this, which is really shameful!

Wu Changhe and Wu Changhai didn't expect that Su Zimu would block their mouths in a few sentences.

What else did they want to say, Su Zimu suddenly said again:

"Let me ask you again, when the family was divided, did you get a lot of land? Your house is still new, and you have all been working to earn silver, do you have no silver at all? As soon as you open your mouth, you will have forty taels of silver?! If I'm not mistaken, you can make up twenty taels of silver casually, obviously you have the ability to make up so much silver, why do you want to persecute grandma and grandpa, the two old men, they are both in their fifties, is it possible that they can make more money than you, you can't take it out, is it possible that they can take out double the silver?"

Su Zimu's words can be described as heart-wrenching.

Wu Changhe also defended:

"This land and house have been sold, and we have all drunk the northwest wind, so how can we still live! Isn't this going to drive all of us to death?"

Su Zimu snorted coldly and said:

"What you say is really sad, is it possible that you said that grandma and grandpa forced you to death? Did they do something angry and resentful? No, everything is yours, you know that grandma and grandpa will not make money, but you still come to force them to pay forty taels of silver, you are the one who wants to force your father and mother to death, you are really in vain!"

The villagers also blamed one after another:

"The five girls are right, my family can't even take out ten taels of silver, but they still let two old men in their fifties take out forty taels of silver, isn't this forcing people to die!"

"That's right, if my son is so unfilial, I will definitely break his leg directly. ”

"Wu Changhai and Wu Changhe's family is not only one man, several of them are over twenty years old, they don't dare to be soldiers, won't they let their sons go!

Wu Changhai and Wu Changhe hurriedly shook their heads and said that they didn't, but the people in the village didn't eat their set at all.

Both the Lan and Li clans turned red, and at this time, Wu Tiansheng rushed out and said:

"Grandma doesn't have any money, but my aunt does! Their family bought more than 100 acres of land, and if they sell it, they will have more than 100 taels of silver, and they can spare my father and uncle from being conscripted!"

Hearing Wu Tiansheng's words, Su Zimu sneered in her heart, she knew that these two uncles were clearly worried about their family's money.

Su Zimu said funny:

"My cousin is really heart-wrenching when he speaks, our family only has that piece of mountainous land in the back mountains, and we live on that land, but my cousin wants me to sell it, so that our mother and daughter will starve to death?

Of course, Wu Changhai knew that if this word spread, Wu Tiansheng would not want to continue the scientific examination, he saw that Wu Tiansheng was going to fight back, and hurriedly said:

"Don't say it, since you think we're aggressive, then let's go to the conscription, if we die, we will die, anyway, my father and mother will be taken care of by the third brother!"

With that, Wu Changhai pulled Wu Changhe up, told him not to speak, and left with an angry face.

When everyone saw this, they didn't know how to feel, and they also felt that it seemed that the ground was not as good as two lives, would Su Zimu and them be a little unkind.

However, Su Zimu said to Wu Changhai who left:

"The eldest uncle and the second uncle would rather die than leave the land, so that their children can have land, and they can eat and wait for death, what a great family affection!"

The villagers suddenly reacted, yes, they still have land, a good paddy field can be sold for five or six taels of silver per mu, the Wu family's family background is still medium, how can they make up twenty taels of piecing together!

So they didn't think that Wu Changhe was pitiful, but felt that what Su Zimu said was very reasonable, Wu Changhai and Wu Changhe's children in their twenties have not yet married, they don't know what they are doing all day long, they haven't heard of going to the ground or anything like that, and they haven't heard of any craftsmanship, but they are just idle all day long!
