Chapter Ninety-Five: Clouds 5
Lin Huaiping is not as complicated as Lin Xiu's thoughts, he relies on a bit of the fists and feet that the northerners should have, and he takes care of the manor in the mansion on the outskirts of the water on weekdays, and makes a few efforts and money, for the fate of such military service, he is very open: "Brother, it's nothing, it's good to go, at least I can exempt the family from the green seedling tax, if I am lucky enough to win a few military merits, it will also make my mother and my brother and sister live better!" ”
Then Lin Huaiping said respectfully to Lin Mao and Zhang: "Third uncle, concubine, it's not too early, let's go back first!" ”
It's just that Lin Huaiping's family hasn't gone far yet, Lin Xiu heard Lin Yuan's sobbing, and the heart-wrenching pain immediately infected his mother-in-law, Zhang, which was heartbreaking. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Late at night, the three members of the Lin family had no sleep, military service, more than ten years ago when Emperor Xia An went to the north, that time Linshui Village went out more than 930 people, and finally none of them returned, and now, the nightmare is coming again, for these ordinary people who are just for life, it is really like the sky is falling.
"Dad, mother, if this is really fate, that's it, the old saying is not true, fame but go right away, men are heroic, just like Brother Ping said, if you win one or two military merits, your second elder will not have to be bullied like this..."
After a while, Zhang said to Lin Mao: "Old man, let's show this one, in case... In case of... How do you say I can live... Why don't you go and beg Chen Yu... Anyway... You were so kind to him in the first place..."
Lin Mao wrinkled an old face, looking at Lin Xiu, who was becoming more and more calm, he suddenly felt a little strange, before entering the trading house in the north, the immature figure was gone, and even more, he saw a trace of other things in Lin Xiu's eyebrows.
"Show... You go to sleep first! ”
Lin Xiu sat still, although Lin Mao was paralyzed, his dignity as a father was still there.
As his breath became more and more rapid, Lin Xiu was worried, and got up and wanted to smooth Lin Mao's back, but was stopped by Lin Mao's deep voice: "Xiu'er... Back to the house... Go to bed... Your dad and I didn't die before... This home... I've got the final say..."
The night, quiet and cool, home, is still cool, even across the doorway, but Lin Mao's voice was heard by Lin Xiu, who was secretly sobbing under the quilt.
"Damn, take out the title deed of the old house over there in our Gangziqiu and the deed of the thirty acres of fertile land, and tomorrow morning, I will go to Chen's Mansion!"
"Old man, why don't you tell your eldest brother first, after all, the Lin family's children are held by him..."
"That old beast looks down on me all his life, he can't wait to squeeze me dry, it's useless to give him this money, don't worry, even if you fight for this old life, I will also leave our Lin Xiu..."
In the morning, the morning dew seems to be heavier than in the past, and the branches and leaves and grass stems that are almost crushed are struggling to support, as the cold breeze blows, only to hear a crisp sound, the morning dew like a crystal pearl quickly slides down and smashes on the bluestone steps, colliding with the stars...
Chen's house.
"Master, Lin Mao is here!"
Fu Bo cautiously came to Chen Yu's study and whispered, yesterday, Chen Yu did not sleep all night, now his expression is a little bad, right now, he was tortured by the military service order, close to the autumn harvest, if the county middle-aged young people are withdrawn, it will be a real obstacle to the implementation of the green seedling tax system and the implementation of the official captive cattle and horses.
Hearing that Lin Mao was coming, Chen Yu thought for a while, and immediately understood the meaning of this big brother.
Chen Yu got up and slowed down, and said, "Take him to the dining room, I'll wait for him there!" ”
On the round table, a few hot dishes, two bowls of hot soup, the tempting fragrance makes people's hearts tremble, although Chen Yu enthusiastically persuaded the big brother in front of him to move chopsticks, but Lin Mao hesitated again and again, supported the bamboo chair with his hand, and rolled to the ground.
When Fu Bo and Jia Ding saw it, they immediately stepped forward to help, but they were pushed away by Lin Mao, who took out a cloth bag from his arms and reluctantly placed it on the table with his arms.
"Chen County Order, this is the 30 acres of fertile land at the Gangzi Hill in Linshui and the house deed and land deed of a four-in, four-out courtyard, just ask you to look at the love of the year, and leave a root for me Lin Mao..."
Hearing this, Chen Yu's complexion changed several times, and finally, he sighed and stepped forward to help Lin Mao up: "Brother Lin, these are your roots, I will take it and be a beast, you go back, Lin Xiu's matter, I will do my best, but you must know that this is an edict issued by His Majesty the Emperor of Zhongdu himself!" ”
Speaking of this, Chen Yu paused for a moment and continued: "Brother Lin, about the affairs in the house, Chen Yu is here to confess to the elder brother, Lin Xiu, he is a good boy, but it's a pity that he and Shu Ling have not yet arrived..."
When Lin Mao left the Chen Mansion, he didn't know that the matter of his coming was known by the Yu family, and the Yu family listened to the words of the maidservant, and his face was full of anger: "Damn the sluts!" Yu thought for a while, and then took the maidservant to the county post house.
"Miss, do you know? The emperor is going to be conscripted! Xiao Yue'er came to Chen Shu's spiritual room with a panicked expression, and Chen Shuling, who was doing embroidery, was confused, and her fingers were pricked with a little red by the tip of the needle.
"When?"
"Just yesterday, now it's spread all over the waterfront periphery!" Xiao Yue'er looked at Chen Shuling with worry: "Miss, is that why Gongzi Lin too..."
"No, how is that possible?" Chen Shuling said a few nonsense, immediately threw down the embroidered map of the northern wild goose flying south, ran out, and just came out of her small courtyard, she bumped into Fu Bo who was needed for her daily use.
Fu Bo swayed and almost fell: "Miss, what are you doing in a panic?" Be careful, don't fall! ”
Chen Shuling gasped and asked urgently: "Fu Bo, are you going to be conscripted for military service?" Isn't it? Say it..."
Fu Bo's face frowned, nodded, and finally he comforted: "Miss, watch out for your body and bones..."
In the county government, Chen Yu is working on these conscription orders, and the military service orders that are levied in more than 30 villages and towns around Linshui County are the people from the marching camp of Lincheng County.
In the side hall, Chen Shuling was waiting anxiously, and when she saw Chen Yu, she hurriedly stepped forward: "Dad!" How could it be conscripted all of a sudden? Chen Yu reprimanded the official and was anxious: "Don't make trouble for me, go back immediately!" ”
"No!" Chen Shuling was stubborn and stubborn: "Lin Xiu is a bachelor of the country, I hope my father will find a way to keep him, if that's the case, I will never disobey my father in the future!" ”
In the Lin family's house, Lin Zhongdao and Lin Zhonglian brothers looked at the list of children born in the clan, Lin Zhongjian said: "Big brother, this should be okay, our Lin family has eight people, and there are already a few more people than the quota. ”
