Chapter 53: No more habitual habits

Shen Chengyao and Shen Chengzu returned to their house with this result, and the Lu family cried directly, and then didn't even look at Shen Chengzu, pulled Jie'er and went to the third room. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

"Third sister-in-law, don't you say that this is too much deception, it used to be just a big house, and the ten taels of silver that were shared after the separation of the family also thought of a way, and they wanted to go back in disguise. If there is really no one to go to the big house and can't take out the silver, just ask the old man to go, they obviously have everything, why do they always want to squeeze their brothers!" Lu Shi remembered everything over the years, and his tears became even more fierce.

When she gave birth to Jie'er, she had a difficult birth, and after giving birth, the doctor said that she had to prescribe medicine and take it for a few months, and only then could she have a chance to conceive a child again, Shen Zhuang was reluctant to take out a little silver to buy medicine for her to regulate her body, so that her stomach did not move at all in the past few years. Recently, because the family has ten taels of silver in her hands, she looked at the doctor, and now she is conditioning her body, this medicine has only been taken for a month, and she has to eat it for another two months. Where do they still have ten taels to take out, and the Dafang family is simply a vampire!

Liu's heart is also uncomfortable, every time a good thing does not have his own share, it is always the two of them who suffer hardships and contribute money and efforts, and they are not spared if they are separated, that's all, and she also specializes in the idea of beating her children, which is also the reason why she is weak-hearted. "She milked that person, you don't follow her, and you always say that you are not filial, and you want to go to the government, we still have to be faced, what can we do. ”

Xiao'er also looks down on the big house family in her heart, she really can't get used to it anymore, she is used to it, she will always be irresponsible in the future, and she will try her best to calculate her own family, then she is really asking for trouble.

"Dad, mother, if it is really the master who has to go to labor, then if the other brothers have no money and silver, my family is all out, and I don't have a word, but now it's not, it's the uncle and the lobby brother who don't want to go, and don't want to take so much silver out, so they calculate us, and the grandfather and grandma also help them, this kind of behavior is not right, how can you get used to it, this habit has become a habit, and there will be no end in the future? In the past, there was no separation, we didn't care, we did what we could, but now that we are two families, we can't solve things as we did when we didn't split up, not to mention that the uncle opened a grocery store in the town really can't even take out 40 taels? I pulled two cloths for each member of the family last time, plus the two clothes of my grandfather and grandmother cost more than 20 taels, and the clothes worn by the uncle's family are better than what I pulled last time, how many clothes they change in a year, I haven't seen the clothes they wear when they come back have been the same, what does this mean?"

"They have the money but don't want to give it out!" replied Jing Rui with a fist.

Everyone else was silent.

"So this time, the two of us can only pay five taels at most, and nothing else. Jing Hao nodded secretly and made up his mind.

"But we've all already taken it. Shen Chengyao and Shen Chengzu glanced at each other, and when the Shen Zhuang clan was about to go to the government to sue them just now, they agreed.

"Next time, if you do this again, you can just let her milk go to the official mansion!" Lu Shi said angrily.

Xiao'er thought of a way, tomorrow they don't need to come up with a copper plate, she said the method she had come up with. Except for Shen Chengyao, the two brothers did not say anything, and everyone else agreed.

There is a big banyan tree in the center of the village in Lianxi Village, under which there are two stone tables, several stone chairs, and several rows of stone benches.

Every time the village chief wants to summon the villagers, he goes to the big banyan tree to beat the gongs and drums, and the villagers know that the village chief has something to call everyone when they hear the sound of gongs and drums.

About a quarter of an hour later, every household in the village arrived, and the chief of the village told me about the taxes and servitude.

After hearing this, the villagers all talked about it, some people disliked the high taxes and the family always did not have enough to eat, and some families with many men asked if they could go to the labor service alone.

"Dafu, if you don't exchange half of your grain for silver and gamble, your family's grain is estimated to be unable to eat next year. One of the villagers laughed.

"I'll go to you, I'll go and gamble on what you have to do, don't be nosy. Li Dafu is a well-known gambler in the village, his family once lost a few acres of land by him, and he did not repent, he drank when he lost the gambling, and when he was drunk, he loved to make his daughter-in-law angry, and the villagers often saw his daughter-in-law beaten and her face swollen.

"Those who do not want to go to hard labor, twenty-two or one. The villagers sighed for a while, this is too much silver, it was only five taels in previous years, how did it suddenly become twenty taels. It would be nice if I could earn twenty taels a month by working outside.

The village chief struck the gong and drum again to quiet everyone down, "Okay, let's stop being verbose, the taxes have been very low in the past two years, as for the labor service, it is like this every year, and it is the matter of dredging water conservancy rivers and building roads, and the court is also for the good of the people. Now hurry up and discuss who will serve in the labor, and then come to me to line up and sign up, and if you don't go, you will have to pay the money tomorrow at the latest. ”

"There is another thing, Shen Chengyao's family bought the wasteland at the head of the village, and now they want to ask someone to open up the wasteland, fifty wen per acre of land, and the requirements are the grass roots in the field, and the stones are cleaned up and plowed. If you are interested, you can also report your name by the way when you sign up for labor service later. ”

When the people in the village heard this, they all exploded.

"Fifty wen per acre of land, is this true?"

"Shen Laosan's family has made a fortune, when did you buy the wasteland, why didn't you hear any wind before?"

"Hire someone to work? 50 wen per acre? When the time comes, you won't be able to afford the salary, right?"

Jing Rui went up and stood next to the village chief, this was discussed by everyone last night, Shen Chengyao had to order bricks and tiles early this morning, and let Jing Rui say that although Jing Rui is only an eight-year-old child, many eight-year-old children in modern times can be very calm when participating in TV shows or international competitions. Now there are many things at home, Shen Chengyao can't be busy alone, and some things are not suitable for women to come forward, so letting Jing Rui come forward and ask someone to work in front of the public is also a good opportunity to exercise his communicative speech eloquence.

Jing Rui has been selling things and talking about business cooperation with Xiao'er these days, and his knowledge has long been different from the past, and his sister's calm and calm conversation and demeanor have already penetrated into his heart, he has long been secretly studying seriously, and now he secretly suppressed his nervousness, calmly walked to the side of the village chief, and said the words that the family had discussed last night, and said that his family would first put five taels of silver at the village chief for safekeeping, which was used to pay wages, so that everyone did not have to worry about their family not being able to pay wages.

Liu took out five taels of silver and handed it to the village chief. When everyone saw that the Liu family really took out five taels of silver, they all rushed up to sign up, and the people who were usually good friends with the Liu family and Shen Chengyao had already gone up to sign up.

After Liu took out five taels of silver, he took out another thirty taels and handed them to the village chief, "Twenty taels of the thirty taels of the village chief are the silver paid by the head of my family who does not go to labor, and the other ten taels are paid by my family for the child's father." ”

"I also have ten taels here, and it is also for the child's father, so that the child's father does not have to go to labor. ”

The crowd began to talk again.

"Isn't Shen Rengui's family already separated? Didn't he live with his eldest son? Why do you have to pay the money to the two sons who went out of the family, what did the other sons do?"

"Shen Chengguang's father and son can go to labor, why do you want Shen Er's old age?"

"Didn't Shen Chengguang open a grocery store in the town? Why didn't he even pay the money to follow his father to serve as laborers, and asked his two younger brothers to do it. ”

"Shen Chengyao is probably rich, but why not all of them. ”

"How can Shen Chengyao's little money be compared to Shen Chengguang......"

"Shen Chengguang's family is still a scholar, and he actually let the old man go to serve, fortunately, Shen Rengui still has two good sons, otherwise the old bones would not be tossed away!"

Old Man Shen and Shen Chengguang in the crowd listened to the words of the villagers, and their faces darkened. Shen Chengguang hurriedly squeezed away everyone and came to the village chief, "Village chief, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, how can I let my father go to labor, my brothers and sisters are not clear about the situation, this is the silver for me and Jingwen to serve labor." Shen Chengguang took out fifty taels of silver tickets painfully.

"Second Elder Shen, who is your family going to serve?"

"Of course, Chengguang and Wen'er"
