Chapter 304: Father and Son--- Today's two chapters

"Father," Huang Laigui hurriedly said: "Now the rules are strict, gambling and drinking are not allowed, and my son's current money can also be saved." ”

As he spoke, he took out a dozen yuan from his bosom, handed it to his mother, and said: "Now my two brothers are paid the emperor's grain and official salary, and my son has twenty yuan a month. With the money now, are you afraid that you won't be able to say that you can't kiss? ”

"That's right." Father Huang nodded, looked at the Hun family with his hands behind his back and accepted the money with a smile, and he was also quite relieved.

Father Huang continued: "The money of your two brothers is handed over to your parents for collection, you are the boss, I have thought about it, we can pay back the money of this house in the next two years, and we can also build three more west houses in the vacant land in the courtyard." When the time comes, I will live in the West Chamber, you marry first, live in the main hall, and after another year, save money and pawn such a yard, you move out, and call your brother to come and live with my two elders, and then the two of us take turns to live in your brother's house, and after a few years, we are old, and we will not work, so we have to rely on you two to support. ”

At this time, the orders of parents are generally not to be disobeyed, and the son can fight a little, but many major matters are still mastered by the parents.

If you talk about it in detail, it must be Huang Laigui who suffers, and the second brother is only four times a month, which is far worse than Huang Laigui. is the second brother who became an officer, and his monthly salary is not as expensive as Huang Lai.

It's just that the status of the soldier in the Nan'an Hou Mansion system is quite noble, Huang Laigui knows that his parents are taken care of and treated preferentially in Baihu Village, and the identity of the brother soldier also plays a big role.

"Daddy doesn't have to worry." Huang Laigui said: "I want to do something well within this year, and strive to be the merchant captain of the merchant ship in the sailors of Nan'an Hou Mansion, and run to the Wa Kingdom or Luzon, or the Three Buddhas, Lanfang, and then I won't go west, it's a bit dangerous." Siam, Laos, Burma countries, also do not go, the profit is too small. If you can ask me to run the route of the Japanese country, and then become a captain, I am afraid that there will be a dividend of thousands of times a year. If this is the case, our family can apply for more than ten acres of land, build a big house by ourselves, and live together as a family, isn't it better than living separately? ”

In these years, there are also things about family separation, but according to the tradition of Fujian Road, there are generally no family separation.

"Let's talk about that." Father Huang waved his hand, noncommittal to Huang Laigui's suggestion, and motioned for this topic to be put aside for now. The son has a future, and even can make plans for the future, which makes Huang's father very satisfied, he has also studied for a few years, the Great Wei of the year is not so sad now, ordinary people will send their children to study for a few years, should not be blind, and Huang Laigui, Xu Zixian's brother When he was young, Huang's father did not have the financial resources to do such a thing, which became a hidden pain in his life.

Especially seeing that both brothers have become rude men, this heartache can only be understood by those who have become fathers.

Now it's okay, the son speaks politely, and it is said that the people under the Nan'an Hou Mansion are forced to read and write...... Even the second son, who is a little flustered, has been able to write back from his own family recently, which is even more commendable.

Although four of the ten words were written wrong, and the walnut size was written, and a few words were not written on more than a dozen pieces of paper, but it was such a letter, which also made Huang's father cry with joy.

The income gap between the two brothers is now large, and if the gap is even greater in the future, as Huang Laigui said, Huang's father's plan is to split up.

does not suffer from widowhood but unevenness, Huang's father still reads.

If the two brothers marry daughters-in-law in the future, the women will argue about their income and contribution to the family, but the sons will not look good, and the parents will be shameless.

It's better to split up.

Father Huang had already made up his mind in an instant, but he didn't want to hurt his son's heart, so he smiled and said, "Come in and help Lao Tzu bake the slices." ”

"Daddy is going to make a bow?" Huang Laigui followed his father into the stove room, which was full of firewood and well-made straw bundles, and the courtyard outside the house was also a hill of straw bundles.

"Well, I want to make a bow," Father Huang said with a smile: "Originally, there was a bow and arrow club in my hometown, and there was a bow, but now people say that the bow is weak, and at my age, ten forces can't be opened, and at least eight forces must be used, otherwise I will be called to quit the club...... I can only find a good Zhemu and make one by myself. ”

"Lacquer, glue, strings, all there?"

"There it is." Father Huang said: "The neighbor hunted a big deer a while ago, and each family gave two catties of meat, and the leather family handed it over, and it was worth four dollars, and the rest of the meat was smoked and eaten slowly, which is so enviable." ”

Huang Laigui laughed when he heard it, his father joined the Bow and Arrow Society when he was a teenager, and originally the Great Wei had preferential tax treatment for the men who joined the society, and the men who joined the society practiced for two seasons in spring and autumn every year, ten days at a time, if there was a military action to suppress thieves, they could send troops with the Xiang Army, and they could also resist conscription.

After Chengzong, in addition to serving in the army, the original preferential treatment gradually disappeared, the imperial court was short of money, and there was no trust in this kind of bow and arrow organization among the people......

In the original Great Wei Dynasty, the official family and the people were united, there were bow and arrow societies everywhere, and the government took the initiative to organize the people to form associations to practice martial arts, and it was not necessarily that any official family was afraid and couldn't sleep.

Today's Chongde Emperor, said to be Chongde, in fact, there is no talent and no virtue, the people are squeezed in every way, there are dozens of taxes, the people are overwhelmed, the more taxes are paid, the more the government is more and more distrustful of the people, and sure enough, there are more and more bandits around the country, a few years ago, the bow and arrow society here in Fujian was also forced to dissolve, Huang Laigui watched his father hide the bow and arrow under the bed, it seems that some of the past beliefs have been hidden.

Now it's different...... The various measures of the Nan'an Hou Mansion seem to have the style of the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, and even surpass it.

Such an official government, of course, is not afraid of the common people holding weapons, and even encourages the common people to organize themselves to fight against both bandits and the government.

It doesn't matter.

Huang Laigui didn't know that Xu Zixian's concept was that if an official government asked the people to organize to resist, the meaning of its existence would have been zero.

Even the Great Wei of the Xu family and the Great Wei of Emperor Taizu are the same.

"This piece of wood should be baked slowly to expel all the moisture...... "Father Huang slowly instructed, slowly flipping and baking the shaped and sharpened wood chips.

Bow making is a science, not only the bow body to be baked, but also the lacquer, strings, horns, and lacquer are all learned.

A good bow can be used from the beginning of production to molding, and it generally takes at least half a year or so.

If it's a more elaborate bow, it's not surprising that it takes several years to make it.

Huang's father used to make a number of hard bows, and when he was old and felt that his muscles and bones were declining, he made a soft bow, which was usually used to hunt occasionally.

The soft bow has a maximum of five forces, which is really not very effective.

Watching his father skillfully turn the bow body, adjust the angle, and match the qualified horn tendons, the prototype of a hard bow appeared, Huang Laigui felt a kind of emotion in his heart, he only vaguely felt that he had made the right decision, but now he couldn't help but say: "Dad, mother, doing things for Nan'an Hou Mansion seems to be the most appropriate thing I have done since I was a child." ”

"That's right." Father Huang nodded again and again, and said, "Hello was born to work in the Hou Mansion fleet, I have a good life with your mother, you don't need to worry......

After going through this time, Huang Laigui felt that he had nothing to worry about, and was even quite relieved.

In the past, at sea, no matter what, I would worry about my parents, or lack of food and clothing, or being bullied and insulted, but now it seems that these worries are superfluous, and the rest is some small details.

"The tent should be hung, don't save this money...... Huang Laigui said to the doctors who came with the ship, telling parents to be careful of mosquitoes and beware of the plague.

Father Huang said with a smile: "I forgot not to say this, after a while, a few hundred households in the vicinity came out of Ding Zhuang, and the people and guards of the Bow and Arrow Society guarded it, and I heard that a small group of cavalry came from Nan'an Mansion, and we went to the southeast ten miles away to burn the wasteland, and burned the shrubs and grass in the hills and at the foot of the mountain." ”

"My son will go with him." Huang Laigui perked up and said, "Since you have caught up, of course you have to make a effort." ”

At this time, there was a drum sound outside, and Father Huang hesitated a little and said: "The time is up, I use this soft bow, you have to go, what can you do without a bow and arrows?" ”

"I don't have a bow and arrows, I still have a hard bow over there for Brother Huang."

There was a sound of talking at the gate of the courtyard, Huang Laigui hurriedly walked out, the person who came was a man in his thirties, less than forty, and his body was about the same as Huang Laigui. I've met Brother Laifu once, what a big man. ”

Huang Laigui smiled: "This is Brother Li? My brother eats coarse grains and wild vegetables with me every day, but he is a big man who is difficult for ordinary people to reach, and Brother Li is also a good man. ”

"We are neighbors, we don't have to be polite, we may have to be neighbors for a long time in the future." Li Guozhu smiled coolly, since he arrived in the Eastern Domain, he first lived temporarily in Nan'anxi, and most of the displaced people who came in the early days set up oilcloth tents to live, and then continued to build houses under the leadership of Lin Jiusi, a master craftsman, and others.

Then it was a lottery to decide the order of residence, Li Guozhu was very lucky, drew to the eleventh round, and then waited for the settlement here, those dilapidated thatched huts were demolished one by one, and after the new settlement was changed to 100 households, Li Guozhu and his family were assigned to the 100th household.

But don't worry about anything, the original Zhangzhou refugees were also quite grouped, and later they were also scattered, now this hundred households, there are more than a dozen Zhangzhou refugees, and the rest are the original residents of the Eastern Domain, Fuzhou immigrants, as well as Xinghua soldiers, Penghu people, a hundred households are divided into several states, more than a dozen counties, and more than 20 counties, almost no region can be grouped, which also effectively prevents the big clans or regional groups from bullying outsiders and other things.

Because the fight was too scattered, the new neighborhood relationship was quite good, and the Nan'an Hou Mansion intended to guide it, emphasizing that the neighbors should help each other, and make up hundreds of households, small flags, that is, to call all households in each small flag to help each other.

Modern society is atomized, and it is normal to live in a building for ten years without being able to name a neighbor, Xu Zixian does not want the old clan and township party forces to appear, and he does not want the people under his rule to be scattered.
