The taxes of the Ming Dynasty are not heavy, and the miscellaneous errand is the most annoying. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

When encountering the great workers of the imperial court, conscription and conscription, paying grain and transporting grain, and serving the people for more than half a year, who will do the work at home? In case it happens that the next-door neighbor's surname is Wang and his surname is Song, and when he sees that your daughter-in-law is beautiful, he will be determined to be friends with you...... It was even more miserable, and I wanted to cry without tears.

Especially in the Yongle period, the country first repaired the city of Beijing, the three major halls, cast the Yongle bell, built the glazed pagoda, and built a big ship to go to the Western Ocean, but also the Northern Expedition remnants, plough the court and sweep the holes...... With so many major events, where does the people's power come from? It is the main member of the people's households, the artisan households, and the military households. Compared with the civilian households that have to serve as a soldier, only one person per generation of military households serves, and the rest of the people can work with peace of mind throughout the year and take care of their families, and their lives are naturally much better.

Speaking of which, Xu Xiaole's great-grandfather had already served the imperial front during the Yongle period, considering that his family's ancestral home was in Suzhou Mansion, so it is very likely that his great-grandfather's father or even grandfather became a military household after Emperor Taizu defeated Zhang Shicheng.

Although the Gusu Xu family is not a wealthy family in the local area, it is not poor, so the old lady was mostly a petty officer back then. It should be a brother of his great-grandfather who replaced him, so after a long time, Xu Xiaole's team gradually moved away from the family core and had no contact.

Because Xu Xiaole had neither become a Ding nor had the opportunity to replace him, of course the guard did not bother to look for him, so that he could enjoy the last bit of shadow left by his ancestors--a happy life without nuisance.

But if you really want to inquire about these things, you can only go home and ask Lao An for advice.

Since Xu Hanlin's family is a relative of the clan cousin, and he studied and took the Jinshi exam, it can be seen that he is also a distant side branch. However, after Xu Hanlin became a big official, the clan must have gone to his family, which greatly improved his family's status in the clan. His family history is naturally clear, and he will not have no concept of the family at all like Xu Xiaole.

After hearing this, Xu Xiaole suddenly felt that this was also very good, at least he would not be harassed by the officials. Hmm, it seems that there was a bullshit Qianhu who had thought about his sister-in-law before, but then he didn't move for some reason - Xu Xiaole was still young at the time, and he didn't know that Tong Wanqing scared that Qianhu enough.

"With such an identity, I just want to study medicine without distraction." Xu Xiaole sighed.

Zhao Junda and Dai Haoge laughed and said, "You are really a medical idiot." ”

Xu Xiaole didn't understand that the two of them were not obsessed with medical skills, and said, "Don't you think studying medicine is very interesting? Although endorsing is a bit boring, but memorizing one more page of the book will give you an extra chance of winning. And curing diseases is like fighting, watching the good and evil attack each other in the medical cases of the ancients, I come and go, there are winners and losers of each other, isn't it more lively than singing on the stage! ”

Zhao Junda recalled the time when he was studying medicine in his childhood, which can be said to be dark. However, when he heard Xu Xiaole speak high-spirited at the moment, he was a little fascinated, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that my qualifications are not good, in addition to endorsing and grabbing medicine, I was given up by my father before I learned to touch the pulse." "He has many sons, and his father can't teach them, so his mind is naturally used on children with good qualifications.

Dai Haoge said: "I have been going to the rivers and lakes with my master since I was a child, and the treatment is to make a living, so what's the fun." ”

Xu Xiaole had no choice but to express sympathy, and asked again, "What are Brother Dai's plans?" ”

Dai Haoge lowered again and said, "I really don't know what to do to make a living now." ”

Zhao Junda said: "I see that Brother Dai, you are well-informed and eloquent, you can go to my store." Whether it is to help me take medicine, or to teach those wealthy families how to maintain health, or to introduce secret recipes from other places, the income will not be bad. ”

Dai Haoge was slightly moved, but he still shook his head and said: "I have studied medicine with my master since I was a child, and I am called master and apprentice, and I am like father and son. Although he is not well-known, since he has passed on my craft, I still want to rely on this craft to eat. ”

Zhao Junda was about to persuade again, but Xu Xiaole suddenly asked, "Does Brother Dai know about tuberculosis?" ”

Dai Haoge was slightly stunned and said, "Tuberculosis?" All I know is that it is a terminal disease, and the patient may die in January or February, March or May, or at most in July, and there is no cure. ”

Xu Xiaole nodded and said, "Then does Big Brother Dai know the cause of this disease?" ”

Dai Haoge said: "It is rumored that it is a tuberculosis. ”

Xu Xiaole suddenly came to his senses and said, "Has Brother Dai seen this tuberculosis?" What does its larvae look like? What do adults look like? Oviparous geometry? When is it incubated? ”

Dai Haoge said regretfully: "I'm really sorry, I've heard all of this, I really haven't seen it." ”

Xu Xiaole was not disappointed, and said: "I have also heard this kind of rumor, but there is no way to verify it." I also suspect that there is an evil spirit between heaven and earth except for the six evils, but there is no way to verify it. So, I found a place where I gathered tuberculosis patients and made daily offerings, hoping to find out the cause of tuberculosis and cure it completely. ”

Zhao Junda and Dai Haoge were suddenly in awe.

Dai Haoge said: "Xiaole, you are doing a great career for the ages!" If you are cured of tuberculosis, I am afraid that you will be able to compete with the sages of Xinglin, which is enough to enter the Xiangxian Temple. ”

The corners of Xu Xiaole's mouth were grinning to his sideburns, just thinking about his portrait hanging in the ancestral hall, outsiders from all over the country and even living in Suzhou had to kowtow to him...... It's so much fun! However, the dream is easy to break after all, and Xu Xiaole soon thought that Amulin's two sons have not improved yet!

Not only did it not improve, but it was clear that it was going to die of illness step by step. The "reinforcements" he had invested before, in the face of this disease, were like ice and snow seeing the scorching sun, and all of them disappeared, with no effect at all.

Xu Xiaole calmed down, with a layer of solemnity on his face, and said: "This disease is indeed difficult to treat, otherwise there are so many famous doctors in the past, it would have been solved a long time ago, and it would not be our turn." Brother Dai, I told you this just to ask if you are interested in doing it together. ”

Dai Haoge's dark face suddenly bloomed with a bright smile: "Can I come?" That's great! Xiaole, thank you so much, you're helping me! Ever since I sent Master away, I've run into walls everywhere and have nowhere to stay. If I hadn't met you today, I'm afraid I'd have ended up in the rivers and lakes......"

Xu Xiaole saw that Dai Haoge said that he was in love, and hurriedly said, "I'm not relieving you." He said, "I can't do this alone." If you want to find the cause of tuberculosis, or find tuberculosis, I am afraid that people will have to stare at it for twelve hours a day. This is originally a chore, plus the company of tuberculosis patients day and night, there is a risk of contracting their own disease, which doctor in Suzhou is willing to come? ”

Xu Xiaole said: "You are willing to help me, this is my acceptance of your affection!" ”

Dai Haoge just shook his head.

Zhao Junda laughed, inserted himself between the two, and said, "This matter, in my opinion, is really due to fate!" God wants the two of you to come together. Providence, providence! Come on, let's have a drink. ”

The three of them were in high spirits and clinked glasses in respect.

Xu Xiaole put a glass of rice wine into his stomach, only felt warm all over his body, and his heart was happy, and he couldn't wait to tear his throat and howl two songs on the spot. But if you want to be familiar with Zhao and Dai at first sight, it's better not to frighten them.
