Early in the morning, the people of Black Bear Ridge were woken up by the sound of gongs.

Li Zheng He Wennian's voice sounded, "I will gather at the threshing floor at noon today, bring the grain and silver, and the yamen will send someone to collect taxes......" Every time he walked and shouted, the small mountain village gradually became lively.

I didn't bother to eat breakfast, and people gathered in groups of three or five to talk about paying taxes.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Shen family sighed in the kitchen with a sad face.

Lin Xiao slept soundly, but was woken up by the movement outside, grabbed the quilt and covered his head, with a self-deceptive posture of "I can't hear anything".

The quilt arched an arc, and then a small brain melon arched out. The white and tender little hands rubbed the half-open and half-closed eyes, and then they opened, with a hint of confusion in the beautiful big eyes.

The little guy's series of actions are very cute, but it's a pity that the master is unreliable, and he falls asleep.

Xiao Bu listened with his ears for a while, and reached out to push the people around him.

"Master, master, Li Zheng said that he was going to collect taxes."

Lin Xiao let out a confused "um", turned over and continued to sleep, and grabbed the annoying little hand, and then the little guy was taken into a warm embrace.

Being held by the master, the little guy was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head curiously, rubbed the soft existence under him, and rubbed his own.

Little bit: "......"

It's weird, it's different.

The little one continues to rub.

Lin Xiao slept in a daze, and felt that his chest was cold, and he was suddenly startled.

"Master, you have a bag here." The little guy's milky voice sounded, and then a pair of devil's claws reached into the placket, Lin Xiao screamed, this morning was completely awake.

"Xu Zhiyuan!"

The angry roar spread far and wide, so much so that the neighbors of the Shen family heard the roar of the lion in Hedong.

Early in the morning, a bear child was actually eating tofu, Lin Xiao got up and stared angrily at the bear child who was obviously aggrieved.

"You, you...... What are you doing? Lin Xiao is about to collapse, who can tell her, why the bear children don't sleep in their own quilts when they wake up every day, but crawl into her quilts?

Also, the placket was also torn open, and there were small steamed buns that had just developed...... Is it tolerable or unbearable!

Dare to eat Lao Niang's tofu, you bear child is miserable.

Xiao Bu was left aside by the master in a daze, and he didn't know what was going on. Seeing the master's posture of a tigress, he said timidly: "Master, did I do something wrong?" ”

Do you know you're doing something wrong?

Lin Xiao was so angry that he snorted, looking like he wanted to go crazy and was embarrassed to attack the child, and he was embarrassed to death.

Xiao Bu was lonely and wandered for several months, and almost died of illness in the beggar's den, but he still learned a little bit of the ability to look at people's faces.

Cautiously looking at the master's face, the little guy grabbed the feather duster and handed it to the master, stretched out his little fat hand with a pout, "If the master is angry, hit me, don't be angry." The thought of being beaten made the little one cry. The master swollen his father's hands at the beginning, so he won't be swollen too, right?

Lin Xiao looked at his well-behaved little appearance, and his anger disappeared by half.

"You know you're wrong." Throwing the feather duster aside, Lin Xiao rubbed his chubby face, "Don't touch it in the future, you stinky boy, can you touch women too?" "Bear kids are really the most annoying.

The little guy is also a visionary, and when he saw that the master was not angry, he widened his eyes and asked, "Master, why did my father touch you?" ”

Lin Xiao: "......"

The grass and mud horses galloped past, and there was a great posture of madness.

"A man can only touch his daughter-in-law, and if another woman touches it, he is a hooligan." Seeing that the bear child seemed to understand or not, Lin Xiao didn't want to dwell on this issue with him. "It's all your fault for waking me up." Rubbing the little guy's hair angrily, Lin Xiao sighed.

The little guy looked at her, "Master, did I do a bad job, are you angry?" ”

A well-behaved and caring apprentice is always hard to get angry.

"You bear kid, I'm too lazy to be angry with you." pinched the little apprentice again, "Well, the white and chubby feel good, eat more in the future." ”

The little guy had a bitter face, "Master, Dad said I was too heavy to hold it." ”

"That's because he has little strength."

"No, Dad is very powerful." When it comes to the problem of his father, the bear child is completely in a state of protection.

"I said yes, your father is just weak."

"My dad can kill wild boars, very powerful......"

Early in the morning, the room began to talk again, and the warmth seemed to be just a moment.

Lin Xiao was already completely awake when he took Xiao Bu out of the house.

It's okay to have a small fight, which helps to treat grumpy low blood pressure.

Seeing that everyone was up, Lin Xiao muttered, "Isn't it just paying taxes, what are you yelling about early in the morning?" "It's still early at noon.

The Shen family was in the center of the village, and a lot of people gathered under the big willow tree outside the door, and the big guys were not in the mood to cook, so they all got together to discuss the matter of paying taxes.

"Our family's grain production has decreased by 30% this year, and we still have to pay so many taxes, how can we live in the future?"

"Your family is still fine, our family has a lot of depressions, and the last rainstorm reduced the grain production by 50 percent...... Poor thing, our family will eat two meals now, and one in a few days, otherwise this grain will not be eaten next autumn. ”

"Our family is the worst, the eight acres of land next to the river, the yield has been reduced by seventy, and now the food is mixed with wild vegetables."

Lin Xiao dragged his apprentice to listen quietly, and once again lamented that the peasants in this era did not live well. Food and clothing can't be solved, and don't blame there are no entertainment activities here.

Li Da sighed and walked over, and someone hurriedly said: "Li Da, your family is having a good time, you sold the deer for dozens of taels of silver a few days ago, and this little tax is not a problem for your family." "Li Da is the leader of the hunting team in the village, and his family life is the largest in the village.

Li Da smiled bitterly when he heard this, "I just got the letter, this year's imperial court cracked down on bandits, and I have to charge an extra tax for bandits, I don't remember what it is called, anyway, it is spread out in the field, and each acre of land has to be charged an extra nine cents, and our family has twenty acres of land, which is counted, alas." Li sighed and left, and sighed at the end: "These days are getting more and more sad. ”

The court crackers want to pay money from the common people?

Ordinary villagers do not understand the relationship between the court's suppression of bandits and people's livelihood, and when they hear that the court is going to raise taxes again, this is tantamount to adding insult to injury, and the village is in an uproar.

An old lady immediately cried, "This is going to raise taxes again, how can you live your life?" ”

"Bandits?"

Lin Xiao muttered, looking thoughtfully at the south.

Ha, the imperial court has finally suppressed the bandits, Gu Dalei, you bastard, life is not easy now, right? (To be continued.) )
