Chapter 272: Land Partition (Five Watches)
"What's going on with this recipe? It's hard for Brother Yao to learn to cook. Chu Jiu looked at him suspiciously and said.
"No, he wrote it to Miss Tao." Xu Wendong relayed Yao Changsheng's words to Chu Jiu and his wife.
"This Brother Yao is really meticulous and thoughtful." Zhong Yuxiu's clear eyes looked at them and couldn't help but say.
This recipe is always his Yao Changsheng's personal matter, and there is nothing worth paying attention to.
"When will the eldest brother return to the barracks?" Xu Wendong looked at Chu Jiu and asked.
Hearing this, Chu Jiu looked at Zhong Yuxiu and said pitifully, "Your sister-in-law has to say this." ”
"Shall I let me say?" Zhong Yuxiu raised her eyes and looked at him when she heard this.
"I won't go to the barracks, I'll be able to obey orders in the Marshal's Mansion!" Chu Jiu looked at her aggrievedly and said.
"Go ahead! Go ahead! I can't stop it. Zhong Yuxiu looked at him helplessly and said, "You can take it easy, you are not allowed to dance with a gun and stick on duty, the injury is not good yet!" ”
"Got it." Chu Jiu nodded hurriedly, he was allowed to go, and he agreed to everything.
"That's it! The meal is set, let's eat! Zhong Yuxiu looked at the two of them and said.
The three of them entered the hall, the maid waited to wash their hands, and the meal was then put on the table.
"Big brother, Bingzhong has been on duty in the Marshal's Mansion recently, it's okay!" Xu Wendong looked at him and said worriedly, "I'm really afraid that something will happen to him with his donkey temper." ”
"We have been explaining to him, the personnel of the Marshal's Mansion are complicated, don't be disrespectful and offend people." Chu Jiu looked at him when he heard this and said, "Nothing has happened these days. Picked up the chopsticks and said, "Anyway, Ming'er is going to be on duty, I'll look at him!" ”
"What about lunch? I asked people to call Brother Bingzhong. Zhong Yuxiu watched him stand up and said.
"Don't, be on duty! It's not good to be different from others, and I want to eat and invite him another day. Chu Jiu stretched out his long arm and pulled her and said, "Sit down, sit down, eat." ”

Tao Qini and the thirty or so people settled down in the villa, and at this time she sat cross-legged on the kang and looked at the Tian Qi on the kang table.
How should the 120 acres of fertile land at the foot of the mountain be distributed?
Shen sat on the kang and couldn't be idle in her hands, she was holding the soles of her shoes, "What are you doing all the time watching this Tian Qi?" Put down the needle and thread and smiled, "We are also landed, not counting the terraces in the mountains, one hundred and twenty acres!" We never dreamed of it. ”
"The earth is the courage of man, and we can now straighten our waists." Tao fifteen said with a smirk on his face, the more he looks at the title deed, the rarer it becomes! It's all grinning to the root of my ears.
Shen's index finger stabbed the silly Tao Fifteen, and glanced at him, but there was no smile on our family's face.
"What do you think? Nil. Tao Fifteen looked at her with concern and asked.
"I want to divide this land, I don't know if you agree?" Tao Qini's crystal clear eyes looked at them with a warm glow and said.
"No, what are you going to do with it?" Tao fifteen looked at her with a puzzled face and said.
"This Zhuangzi was given to us by Mrs. Chu." Shen's jet-black pupils were full of disapproval.
"Mother, this land is for us, and everyone has a contribution to that battle. It's not our alone. Tao Qini looked at them with warm eyes and said.
"Then you have to say that, don't you score the Golden Tiger them!" Tao fifteen looked at her and said suddenly.
"When they entered the barracks, they were the members of the righteous army, and they did not have to worry about food and clothing. We don't have anything left. Tao Qini looked at them with clear eyes and said, "Dad just said that the earth is the courage of people. ”
Tao 15 and Shen glanced at each other, slightly hooked the corners of their mouths, and agreed with what Nier said after many years of tacit understanding between husband and wife.
Tao Shifu looked at her with clear eyes and said, "I don't object to you dividing the land, it doesn't matter if we farm the land, but this kind of land is very tiring, like Erniu and a few women must not be tired to death if they go to the ground." ”
"Then help each other and cooperate!" Tao Qini looked at them with clear eyes and said, "Men and women are born with differences in strength. So everyone planted together, but the men had to work harder, and the women did! Less on the ground, more attention to the clothes and food. He groaned for a while and said, "Of course, this is just the usual field management, weeding, top dressing or something?" When it comes to the summer harvest and autumn harvest, then everyone will go together. After thinking about it, he said, "Of course, this is only my preliminary idea, and I have to discuss a feasible solution with them." Inspire everyone. ”
"Good idea." Tao Fifteen looked at her and nodded, "Ming'er asks them." ”
"What about me? Cook with Aunt Liang. Shen raised his eyes and looked at their father and daughter.
"Mother can do whatever she wants? It's voluntary. Tao Qini's dark eyes turned lightly when she heard this.
"But I'm not very good at cooking." Shen said with a bitter face, "I still met Aunt Liang and learned from her." His gaze turned to them, "It's only the two of you who don't dislike the food I cook." ”
Tao Qini's dark eyes flashed when she heard this, it seems that she has to get a recipe first, otherwise she will have to eat pig food every day, let alone food.
All the good things are ruined!
"It's better than grass roots and tree bark." Tao 15 grinned.
"Your father! As long as you can eat enough, you can do anything. Hearing this, Shen looked at him and shook his head and smiled.
"Isn't that good? Good to feed, not picky eater. Tao Qini looked at him and smiled.
"Then let's talk to them tomorrow." Tao Qini looked at them with glass-like eyes and said, "Don't look at one person and four acres of land, I calculated it, and I will be full." Fingers snapped and said, "I estimated, now there is less meat, that is, less oil and water, a person should be able to eat more than 2 catties of food a day, and 1 catty should be barely surviving." After a pause, he said, "This year, 365 days, about 730 catties of grain are consumed, and we have four acres of land per person, and the yield per mu is about 200 catties, that is, 800 catties." Mix up and be full! ”
"Ahh How do I feel like these four acres of land? How can you eat a full stomach in your mouth. Shen looked at her in disbelief and said.
"The yield per mu is too low." Tao Qini said very regretfully.
"Oops!" Tao fifteen suddenly patted his thigh and said, "Let's count less, count less." ”
"What's less?" Tao Qini looked at him and asked.
"Tax, we still have to pay taxes!" Tao fifteen stared at her with wide eyes and said in horror, "It's over, it's over, we have to pay taxes for what we have worked hard to plant, and we can't eat enough now." ”
The mention of taxes is simply a nightmare in Tao Fifteen's heart, and it has all received his grandchildren.
"Nier, what is this going to do!" Shen felt like the day had collapsed.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, we are now farmers with their own land, not tenant farmers, farming for landlords, and the taxes are not so high, not so high." Tao Qini looked at the panicked two and hurriedly said, "Our own land, our own." ”
