Chapter 370 Black Pig at Sunset
(PS: Chapter 2!) Allow me to brazenly ask for a recommendation and subscription...... Your support is the motivation of the flies! Tomorrow to continue~. ~)
The villagers of Dou Village waited worriedly, thanking Shence and the prince for being calm.
It's a bit inappropriate to say that they are calm and relaxed, because they don't worry about anything in the first place. This kind of indifference and even boredom is based on absolute power, but they don't show it, so they seem to outsiders to be a bit pretending, and they are very underwhelming.
The line girl was no longer in the mood to cook a big meal at noon, but just boiled a big pot of porridge.
When eating, the middle-aged man is always at a distance from the prince and Xie Shence, and even the old man has significantly fewer words. Except for Dou Douzi, who sometimes asked strange questions such as whether the horses in the city also had four legs, almost no one dared to speak out anymore.
The noon sun was still hot, and the samurai family members who were tied to the field and exposed to the sun were like grass that had been crushed by a wheel six times, their heads hung down, and their lips were cracked.
Dou Hongxian originally wanted to feed them water, but was stopped by Xie Shence, she looked at the prince, but this time the prince didn't speak for him again.
The sun was setting in the west, and the mosquitoes gradually increased, and the legendary martial arts official still did not appear.
The old man and the group of farmer men were already hopeless, in fact, if it weren't for Xie Shence and the prince who had not spoken, they would have left a long time ago. The reason why I didn't leave was because I was afraid.
In their eyes, the two foreigners are no longer yesterday's gentle sons, but big tigers comparable to military officials.
The methods of the two are undoubtedly brutal in the eyes of these countrymen who dare not blush and blush on weekdays.
Although in the eyes of the little boy Dou Douzi and the girl Dou Hongxian, this cruelty is only domineering.
can make the subordinates of the martial arts officials suffer such a big loss, even the eldest brother before joining the army has never done it.
However, Dou Douzi can laugh and play unscrupulously, but Dou Hongxian cannot.
After all, the daughter's family was more reserved, especially after being told by the villagers in front of her, she was almost silent in front of the prince. Second, after all, they are older, and they know that they have thought about it, and they are also worried in their hearts, in case the military officials come, how should the two sons deal with it.
When the sun was about to set, the sedan chair of the military officials finally arrived.
There were even a dozen servants armed with sticks, and two of them were riding horses. Such a large battle of dozens of people is almost the standard of the emperor of the soil in the countryside, and it is extremely eye-catching.
Seeing more than a dozen housekeepers with sticks, some of the farmer men were mourned, and after seeing ten errand servants in red and black uniforms, their faces were even more ugly.
actually alarmed the government, and the military officials really couldn't be offended.
The vicious man who was released by the informant's intercession was like eating a dead mouse at this time, and muttered: "It's over, I have alarmed the government, this time I am going to eat a lawsuit, if I send more conscription, I will be finished......"
Grief and fear always spread at the fastest speed, and soon, many people became scared, and some even wiped their tears with their sleeves.
Xie Shence didn't look at them with strange eyes this time. He looked at these peasants, who were usually honest and extremely frightened at this time, as if he saw himself when he was a child and was called a parent when he fought with his tablemates.
The officers tied their horses and then went to the other side of the field, and did not come. The sedan chair of the Wu Daguan came over.
Xie Shence saw the housekeeper who had been kicked and crooked his nose before, and the third uncle Zeng who met at the entrance of the village in the morning.
Uncle Zeng opened the sedan curtain with a smile, and then bent down to ask the people inside to come out.
The first hand was stretched out, it was a woman's hand, and then a woman came out.
Xie Shence noticed that Dou Hongxian's face was instantly full of anger.
In connection with what he said in the morning, Xie Shence is sure that this woman who looks pretty good, but her face is too thick and looks a little dusty, should be Zeng Bao'er, who has already married her brother.
Then a white and tender hand was put on the door of the car, and a fat Humpty Dumpty man stepped down.
Because the face is very dark, the fat on the face should be called horizontal meat.
Xie Shence was secretly surprised, this person's hands were so fair, he almost thought it was a woman's hand, but he didn't expect it to be a man's hand, and this man's face was so dark.
As the saying goes, beautiful people are outstanding everywhere, and this sentence is not false at all. After getting out of the car, the Wu Daguan swept the field and found two beautiful people.
The first was naturally the red thread he wanted to wear, and the other was a man.
Damn, how can this man be so pretty? The martial arts official looked at Xie Shence's face and thought like this.
If this is sold into the building, it will be the top brand. Those boys like this bite. Except for a little darker......
Xie Shence watched the black pig-like guy look at him with strange eyes, and couldn't help frowning disgustingly. It's not that I know what the martial arts officials are thinking, but they simply think that the black pig is really ugly.
Then Xie Shence looked at Zeng Bao'er beside him, thinking about the private life of the two, and felt even more disgusted. looks like this, that Zeng Bao'er is also very hard for the sake of wealth.
However, Zeng Bao'er saw Xie Shence come over, but her heart was fluttering.
Anyone who is not confident in their appearance has a sense of vigilance or uneasiness when their partner looks at others. The Wu officials naturally discovered Zeng Bao'er and Xie Shence's "eyebrows", and they were furious in their hearts at the moment, and shouted in a low voice: "Slut, if you look at that little miscellaneous eyebrows again, this big official will gouge out your eyeballs!" ”
Zeng Bao'er was shocked, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly lowered her head.
Third Uncle Zeng didn't know what was going on, but said to the martial arts official, "Xian...... The big officials, those two are outsiders. ”
Surrounded by the family, the military official stepped forward and stood in the middle of the people and said, "You tied up my family?" Why don't you put it soon? ”
Xie Shence smiled and tilted his head, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the field.
Immediately, a family member ran over to untie the ropes of the family who had been so sunburned that their mouth and lips were cracked and that they had been bitten by mosquitoes, and then immediately brought out water to quench their thirst.
The Wu official said: "I sent my family to collect rent, how dare you lynch the family of this big official?" If there is no king's law, what is the intention? If you don't say one, two, three today, you untouchables will definitely be officials! ”
There was silence in the field, and the Wu Daguan looked at the two outsiders and said with a smile: "Why, dare to beat people, and see this big official?" Whoever moves the hand, stand up! This big official wants to see if you really have a kind! ”
Xie Shence got up and walked in front of the martial arts official, and the housekeeper who had been beaten before was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated.
When he retreated, more than a dozen family members retreated, after all, they had also heard that Xie Shence was very capable of fighting. And the retreat of the family made the military officials standing in the middle of the family also forced to retreat, and because they were unprepared, they almost tripped over their own back skirts when they retreated, which was very embarrassing.
"What are you going to do? You're going to hit someone? Tell you, there is an official over there, you dare to beat someone! ”
The housekeeper didn't know whether it was out of self-comfort or intimidation, and said such a thing that made Xie Shence laugh.
I'm afraid I don't know you're afraid, aren't you?
Have you considered the feelings of your family's senior officials?
Since it was funny, Xie Shence laughed without any scruples.
Then the prince also laughed, and then Dou Hongxian also smiled, and Dou Douzi looked at them and laughed, although he didn't know why, he also laughed. The old man did not laugh with the others.
Although there were only four people laughing in the audience, the military officials felt that everyone was laughing at him.
This one...... Rubbish! Don't you know to shut up if you can't speak? Lao Tzu's face has made you lose everything!
So he straightened his crumpled clothes angrily and roared angrily: "You dare to laugh at this great official! This official will definitely not be able to spare you! ”
Xie Shence stopped laughing, and then said seriously: "I didn't laugh at you, I just thought you were funny." ”
Then he couldn't hold it back and laughed again.
The Wu Daguan was furious, and then scolded: "Okay, good! Sharp teeth! But since this official is dealing with matters with tenants, he will not care about you! You can't control this rent demand! Interfere arbitrarily, Jin Law is allowed! ”
Xie Shence nodded and said, "You deal with yours." Naturally, I will not interfere. ”
In this era, since it is the landlord class that rules the world, whether it is the Jin law, the Qin law or the Song law, they all protect the interests of the landlord class. The landlord's collection of rent is one of the economic sources recognized by law, and the affairs between the landlord and his tenant farmers, even if it are the government, cannot interfere at will.
He came to demand rent, justifiably and strongly. If all the rent is paid off within three years, then he will have to collect it in the first year, and since Jin Lu did not say that one year is not counted in three years, his request is reasonable.
Because it is reasonable, it is naturally not afraid of the interference of Xie Shence and others. Even in his heart, he expected Xie Shence to intervene, so that he would have a legitimate reason to send Xie Shence and the crown prince to the official.
How do you know that Xie Shence said such a sentence.
However, the martial arts official didn't care, he said sharply: "Dou Youde! You owe this big official three years of rent, and you must pay it off this year! Otherwise, we'll see you in the yamen! ”
Dou Youde suppressed his anger and said: "Back to the big official, the villain has only been planted for a year, so he can only pay a year's rent this year." For the remaining two years, the planting has not yet begun, so please forgive the villain for not being able to return it. ”
The Wu official said angrily: "Bastard! You signed a three-year lease with me, promising to pay it off within three years, then one year is also within three years, and you have to pay it back now! ”
"There are still two years left without farming, so how can I get another year? Officials need to be reasonable. Without food, where can the little people continue to farm? ”
"Hmph." The Wu official sneered: "Okay, you Dou Youde, you actually want to reason with this big official, that's good!" This senior official asked you, why did you delay your rent last year, which should have been paid off last year? Since your rent from last year can be repaid this year, why can't you ask for next year's rent this year? You can procrastinate! I'll be able to ask for it in advance! And your delay is a breach of contract, and it is reasonable for this senior official to ask for it in advance! ”
Dou Youde was speechless.
Xie Shence said in his heart, but he didn't expect this black pig to be quite flexible. It's just that his flexibility is used in the wrong place, and it shouldn't be used to exploit the people.
