174 Rectification of tenants

After staying in Liang Ji for an hour, Chen Qing invited Liu Hengshan to go to the tea house to taste tea together.

It's still the same tea house a few years ago, and this time the guy didn't dare to stop a few distinguished guests, but opened a box to serve aside.

Chen Qing didn't understand tea, so he specially invited Uncle Liu to come and give a lecture.

Liu Hengshan couldn't help but smile bitterly when he knew it, "It's hard for you, I've drunk a lot of good tea, but let me talk about the doorway in this tea, it's really inappropriate, we are all from the countryside, even if we have been in the county for many years, we are still authentic laymen."

Chen Qing also knows this reason, but he can't bother the shopkeeper with this matter, right?

Chen Qing's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly handed the guy half a tael of silver and said, "Then please ask the shopkeeper to tell us about it."

"It's easy to say, it's to explain the famous tea, and the cost ......of this tea is not small," the young man hinted at embarrassment.

Chen Qing knew the young man's intentions, and responded with a smile, "Talking about tea naturally has to be good for physical talents, you go and invite the shopkeeper to come, let's talk about ten kinds first"

When the young man heard this, his eyes lit up, and he ran to ask the shopkeeper to come forward.

Such distinguished guests could not be lazy, and the shopkeeper straightened out his robe before he dared to show up, and when the tea was served, he took out a full copy of the matter and discussed the tea scripture with Uncle Liu.

Chen Qing and Liang Duoduo were confused when they heard it, but fortunately, Liu Boshang still had some qualifications, and they listened more and talked less, and they also had all ten kinds of famous teas.

After an hour of explanation, the shopkeeper said that it was hearty, and Liang Duoduo drank a stomach of tea and ran straight to the thatched house.

"The shopkeeper has explained in such detail, and I will have to ask for advice tomorrow" Chen Qing handed over two taels of silver as a thank you gift, but the shopkeeper was so happy that he didn't dare to take it.

"That being the case, if you only talk about one or two kinds every day, it is better than swallowing dates and forgetting them" The shopkeeper is sincerely thinking about Chen Qing, and it can be seen from the face that they don't understand tea, and they think that they came to ask for advice just to give the girl more knowledge.

"Thank you for the shopkeeper's suggestion" Chen Qing got up and gave up his hand, and when he waited for someone to exit the box, he rubbed his swollen stomach and complained, "I can't taste what I drink, I feel that my tongue is numb and astringent......"

Liang Duoduo returned to his seat at the right time, wrinkling his little face and complaining, "Auntie, when we taste these tea leaves one by one, it is estimated that I won't even be able to eat dinner."

Liu Heng Shanjing poured himself a cup of tea and said with a smile, "If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, and the coming day is long, if you listen to the advice of the shopkeeper, only taste two kinds at a time, and you can distinguish the taste."

Chen Qing nodded, ignoring Liang Duoduo's grimace and responded, "That's the reason, if you marry into the provincial capital in the future, you will have to entertain people with tea, learn more, and the province will lose face at that time."

Liu Hengshan echoed, "I heard that the women in the provincial capital also have occasional small gatherings, this tea tasting must not be ignored, the doorway here is not something that the daughters of small families can understand, if you can learn the tea scriptures thoroughly, let alone in the provincial capital, no one dares to look down on you even if you enter Beijing."

Liang Duoduo stuck out his tongue, took a small sip of tea, and finally pursed his mouth and screamed.

"Next time, don't you order some pastries, so as not to hurt your stomach on an empty stomach" Liu Hengshan borrowed a good cup of tea, and joked with a smile on his face.

"How expensive is this, let's go to the pastry shop outside to buy it" Liang Duoduo beat the snake with a playful wink on the stick.

Chen Qing secretly thought that this tuition fee is not cheap, it is a pastry and a tea fee, this meal alone will cost fifteen taels, if you come to drink every day in the future, you can't throw one hundred and eighty taels as a bundle?

But looking at Liang Duoduo's appearance of not being deeply involved in the world, he felt that the money was not unjustly spent. The girl's family should open her eyes more, otherwise she will marry into a provincial capital, not to mention being looked down upon, and even she will feel that she has fallen.

If it weren't for the fact that the poor couldn't even afford to drink tea, even Chen Bi would have to pull it over to make up for it.

In line with the plan of raising children and rich daughters in poverty, Chen Qing dragged Liang Duoduo to taste tea every once in a while, and he became familiar with the shopkeeper after coming and going.

The shopkeeper pulled a regular customer for the shop, and occasionally had one or two pieces of silver as a reward, and spared no effort to teach Liang Duoduo the knowledge of the tea ceremony, and even knew all kinds of pastries.

Chen Qing drank it a few more times and tasted the taste, but without waiting for Liang Duoduo to learn thoroughly, he got better first.

During this period, Uncle Liu, who accompanied him, was replaced by a shopkeeper of Wan, and the nonsense of the two of them from all over the world also made Chen Qing a little more insightful.

In the early spring of this year, Chen Qing really didn't have much leisure time, and he saw the wheat seedlings growing in the field, so he had to learn this tea every once in a while.

With crops in the fields, the farmers have more expectations in their hearts, and with the wild vegetables that have emerged in the fields, the days have also gone smoothly.

There was hope for the autumn harvest, and the tenants did not live next to each other in their hearts, and as soon as there were many tenants who came to borrow grain, the Liang family began to count the tenant rents everywhere.

It's okay if you don't check it, but after checking it, it makes the brothers angry and hangs down, and all the wheat seedlings in the field are relieved!

Liang Baida learned that many fertile fields were uncultivated but had grown dense crops, and he was also secretly annoyed: "These splashes!"

"I even said that I don't know which family planted it? When we wait for the autumn harvest, we will hire more laborers and harvest them all, and see if they dare to make a skin when they arrive!" Liang Ziping poured down a sip of herbal tea and put down the tea bowl heavily.

"No, at that time, they will definitely say that the Liang family is bullying people and trying to occupy the harvest in the field" Liang Zixian shook his head and vetoed.

"Suing the official is a trivial matter, I'm afraid that Tian Duo won't be able to take care of it, and most of it will be taken away privately, and those scoundrels will be cheaper for nothing" Liang Zizhuang rubbed his wrist. He had just started a fight with a tenant under him, and when he returned home, he was the first to calm down.

"Hmph~ When you go to borrow food, why don't you say that the family has never tenanted the Liang family's field? These Diao people really remember to eat and don't remember their gratitude," Song asked Brother Yang to carry him back to the house properly, so as not to get angry and scare the doll again.

"If you want me to say, this thing is easy to do......" Chen Qing put down the teapot, wiped off the tea stains, and put the cloth towel on his shoulder, without any anger.

Naturally, the scoundrels could no longer think about reasoning with them, and after some discussion, the whole family took people out of the house and hired ten or eight laborers to pick up troublesome villages.

The village that was picked first still denied it in a group. Liang Zixian shouted in a deep voice: "No one cultivates, right? That's easy to say...... After all, it is his own field, whether it is burned or pulled out is up to the master, Li San! Lead people to circle the land, and burn it, and the left and right will only be vacant for a year, and the right to raise the land!"

Li San gave the order, and quickly ordered the laborers to cut the crops on the ground, circle the isolation zone, and hold the torch in his hand to make a gesture, "Master, then I will burn the waste~"

Liang Zixian waved his hand, stared coldly at the restless villagers of Rarity, and ordered, "Burn!"

The villagers were also a little unbreathed at this time, originally planned to rely on a year, so as to make up for last year's losses, but they didn't think that the Liang family really dared to burn the fields, so many crops, if they were all burned, wouldn't the Liang family have no interest this year?

Originally, it was determined that the Liang family was reluctant to give up a year's tenant rent, so they followed the trend to make trouble, but seeing that the Liang family wanted to hurt the enemy by 1,000 at the expense of 800, some people immediately retreated in their hearts.

Sixty percent rent is better than no grain harvest, it is borrowed money to buy grain seeds, if this will be all burned, not to mention the work in vain, even the grain money will not be recovered.

The fire was still small at first, and after a while, thick smoke rose from the field and burned the wheat seedlings in the distance, and the people who cultivated privately jumped out in a hurry and shouted, "It can't be burned, we croppers can all point to the production of the fields to live, and see that the crops have not yet grown, and if they are burned, they will be punished by God!"

"Hmph~ You are not afraid of retribution, my Liang family is naturally fine! Li San, pull out all the rice in the paddy field, and if you can't pull it out, don't worry about it, use the ox to turn over all the land, I want to see which other family has planted the Liang family's field!" Liang Zixian walked straight towards the paddy field under the escort of a group of laborers.

"I can't help it, Liang Dongjia ......" The old village chief stepped forward and hurriedly grabbed Liang Zixian's sleeve and discussed it.

"Isn't there no one to plant?" Liang Zixian looked down at the old village chief who was bent over.

"Alas~ Any of you tenant the land of the landlord of Liang, hurry up and respond, otherwise I won't be able to save the crops in the field even if I pull down my old face!"

At this time, everyone woke up, and hurriedly whispered which field they planted.

Liang Zixian counted them one by one, and said sarcastically: "This tenant rent is sixty percent, and you are sure to pay it......?"

"Don't dare, don't dare! Since you have planted it, you naturally have to pay rent according to the owner's wishes, how dare we tenants go against you," the old village chief begged with a shy face.

"What I said is not that my Liang family is unreasonable, but that these descendants in your village are cheating. At that time, the government will collect taxes, and if it is against the government, it will also be against the government, do you say yes or no?" Liang Zixian took out the shelf, not without taking advantage of the situation to oppress people.

"Uh...... If you don't let the natural disaster go on, who would dare to go against the officials" The old village chief had a hard time complaining, he didn't persuade him, but the people in the village were determined not to listen to persuasion, and he didn't have a way.

"If the tenants can't live a life, they can't patch the Liang family, right? If a good man does this, he will only have to break his family and die, and he won't let the law-abiding good people go to pity the robbers."

In the end, Liang Zixian didn't want to tear his face, and after counting the tenant rent, he headed for the next village.

After burning a few crops from village to village, the villages became honest. Within two days, the rest of the villages did not wait for the Liang family to come to the door, and obediently reported the fields they had cultivated.

When he went to Chenjiagou, Chen Qing accepted the work in his hand and wanted to go together, and Liang Zixian persuaded him a few words.

After all, it is his mother's village, and it is not good for Chen Qing to tear his face, but Chen Qing has to help his relatives or not, so Liang Zixian has nothing to say.

Especially the one who took the lead in making trouble was Uncle Chen Qing, who was a little stunned by the shrew of Miao Rencui, and even the big man Liang Zixian, who was really afraid of her spoofing and crying.

The reason why Chen Qing had to go to this troubled water was not all because he was making trouble, but because he still had something to discuss with Chen Ping, and Liu Daidi was about to give birth, so he also wanted to send him some tonic medicine to nourish his body.

All the mistakes are Miao Rencui's fault, Chen Ping is no longer a thing, and he can't hold a grudge against a little brother because of this, and Liu Daidi is pregnant with the old Chen family, he was born in the Chen family, and he will eventually keep this only bloodline, which can be regarded as repaying his father's kindness in the world.

When he arrived at Chenjiagou, Miao Rencui first blocked the entrance of the village to prevent people from entering, Chen Qing didn't say anything about it, and went directly to the paddy field of the uncle's house, pointing to the crops in the field and saying, "Whether you can pull it out or not depends on how you choose, don't cry until the end and cry your father and mother to scold me for losing my conscience."

Miao Rencui pushed Chen Qing away and shouted angrily: "Chen Qing, you dare! If you pull out my family's rice today, I will fight hard with you, and I will not let you bully the old, weak, sick and disabled like this! Now your grandma is sick, but you can all point to this crop for medicine money!"

When Chen Qing heard that Grandma was seriously ill, he couldn't help frowning, but his tone was still stiff and said, "Even if you change the money, you won't buy medicine for Grandma, put away your little thoughts, Boss Chen, you say, pull it out or not?"

Boss Chen stepped forward with a slight pause and said, "Alas~ Six achievements are sixty percent, don't listen to a woman's nonsense"

Chen Qing now refuses to even call his uncle, how can he have the face to fool around like his daughter-in-law?

His old face had already been lost in front of his brother and brother, and at this moment he was completely lifeless and reprimanded his daughter-in-law: "You are willing to be embarrassed, don't take the whole family with you!

Miao Rencui immediately spread on the ground and scolded the ancestors of the Chen family with tears and howls, Boss Chen shook his head and scolded secretly and turned home, Xiao Suo's back looked at Chen Qing and felt a little sad for him.

If you do this, you are not only ashamed, but also incompetent! But who can you blame when you come to this point?

Chen Lao everyone died down, and the rest of the villagers were even more difficult to fight against the landlord of Liang, and after signing and drawing on the account book one by one, it was sparsely dispersed, Chen Ping finished watching the excitement, and then smiled happily and said, "You deserve it!"

Miao Rencui swept to her son who was hiding behind the crowd, and rushed over to scold him crying, "You little brute! The old lady is bullied and doesn't know how to say anything, she has raised you for so many years!"

Chen Ping pushed away A-Niang and shouted, "I have long advised you not to be delusional, but you just don't listen! I think it's best not to plant this land, so as not to have to take Di with a big belly to help your family plough and plant!"

"He is a daughter-in-law who enters the door, no matter how much work he does, it is his duty! When the family was separated, he also promised to help farm the land, even if he was tired and died in the field, he deserved it!" Miao Rencui still hated Liu Daidi's separation, and he was angry at this time, so he naturally dared to pour out anything without hindrance.

Chen Qing listened, and felt very uncomfortable, the little brother's pregnancy is already more difficult than that of a woman, and he is still busy with his livelihood when he is about to give birth, in case there is a bad pool, it is a big deal of one corpse and two lives.

As soon as Miao Rencui's words came out, she was naturally angry, even if her mother-in-law was dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law's separation, she shouldn't abuse a pregnant husband who was about to give birth like this, and it was a great achievement to pass on the ancestry, but Miao Rencui said that he was so damned, and people with a little sympathy couldn't tolerate it.

usually lives in a village, and it is not good to point fingers at other people's affairs, which will be unbearable to criticize two sentences.

Miao Rencui's mad dog generally bites people when they see them, and the bluffing officials are also impatient to deal with her.

Chen Qing panicked in his heart, turned his head and said to Liang Zixian, "Since Mr. Chen's family can't plant so many fields, I think that the land will be taken back next year and tenanted to other families, so as not to cause my daughter-in-law to die of exhaustion in the field with a big belly."

Liang Zixian also had this plan, and immediately ordered Li San to take back the land of Chen Lao's family, and find new tenants after the autumn harvest.

This decision attracted applause from everyone, and Miao Rencui pounced on Chen Qing with two lines of snot hanging on his own fruit, vowing to die with him.

Liang Zixian motioned for Li San to set people away, and asked the village chief, "Such a bad woman, Chen Jiagou can tolerate her running rampant in the village?"

The village chief waved his hand and asked his nephew to press Miao Rencui to the ancestral hall, "No matter how stubborn you are, divorce your wife for Boss Chen in the strange clan!"

Miao Rencui only woke up at this point, and Ai Ai's promise would not dare to her pregnant husband again, but the clan had long been dissatisfied with her words and deeds, and even if she didn't stop, she couldn't let her come anymore, "Go and tell Boss Chen, open the ancestral hall tomorrow, and the clan rules will deal with such inferior women!"

After all, she is Chen Ping's mother-in-law, and it is not good to see her being punished by the clan rules at this time, so she is busy begging the village chief to give her some affection. The village chief squinted and swept him, "Even if you have a piece of filial piety, but if this shrew doesn't teach a lesson, she will ruin my Chen Jiagou's face on the ground!"

Knowing that the village did not want to drive A-Niang out of the village, Chen Ping was relieved. It happened that Chen Qing had something to discuss with him, and agreed with Liang Zixian to gather at the entrance of the village, so he took his things and went to Chen Ping's house.

Chen Ping led people back, Liu Daidi just happened to make dinner, the peasant family has two meals a day, and this meal in the afternoon is the best meal of the day.

Chen Qing looked at a plate of wild vegetables, and the two bowls of gruel couldn't help but feel bad in his heart, so he hurriedly cut the meat he brought and put it on the table, "You eat first, and then it's not too late to talk after eating"

Liu Daidi held her stomach and smiled shyly, and invited, "It's all some farmhouse meals, if you don't dislike it, let's use some together."

Chen Qing looked at the two bowls of gruel, shook his head and said, "I didn't come until I ate at noon, maybe I didn't have much preparation at home, so you should eat."

Chen Ping didn't care and said, "Big brother is not an outsider, our family just has two bowls of porridge, and we both have to be hungry if we even make one bowl."

Liu Daidi glared at him, and was embarrassed to persuade him again, so he only took a bowl of water and handed it to Chen Qing, "There's nothing to entertain you, and I have to worry about bringing some food ...... to the eldest brother."

"If you are inconvenient, don't call me, hurry up and eat while it's hot, so as not to starve the baby in your belly again" Chen Qing took the broken bowl that was missing, and didn't dislike it, and drank it in front of people.
