Chapter 318
The news has come, and there are quite a few more. There are bad things and good things.
Xin pulled Lan Niang to whisper, "In the first year of conscription, your father only had Yangzi, his stepson, and he was not forcibly requisitioned. During the second conscription, Yangzi hid in the mountains, and the officers and soldiers could not find it at all. Your father is not in good health, and he is old and has not been requisitioned. However, he paid a fine of two taels of silver. The government also made an example of the monkey and arrested your father and went to prison for half a month as a punishment. When he came back on the third occasion, Yangzi got married, married the daughter of the mountain people, and lived directly in the mountain people's house. ”
"That's okay, it's good to survive." Lan Niang breathed a sigh of relief. As for Daddy Xin's imprisonment, it's nothing. It's just that the net worth resume is not good-looking.
The Xin family has no money for scholars, so what does it matter if the net worth is innocent or not. Now it's the new imperial court, and there are more people who are not innocent in the previous dynasty, and Daddy Xin, who has been negative for countless generations, is not conspicuous at all.
It is more important than anything else that people are alive.
The good news is that the Xin family is doing well, and there are no casualties. Even the younger sister with the Yangtze has a home. Now there are few women and men, the Xin family has no property, and if they want to marry, they can only stare at the mountain people. At that time, the mountain people were very popular.
Xin said: "Your stepsister is married to the mountain people, and the food and clothing are okay, the man is reliable and honest, and after giving birth to a son, her status is more stable, and she can speak at home." This time, the mountain people came down the mountain, and their family also came down the mountain, and they lived in your mother's village, and everyone took care of it. The family of the old man of Yangzi also came down the mountain, and the family divided fifteen acres of land, and the good days were behind. ”
"Now that the world is better, Yangzi's craftsmanship can also be picked up, and I can also increase the income for the family, and I can worry a little less. What about Gui Niang? Is there any news from Gui Niang? Lan Niang hurriedly asked.
What I want to know most is Gui Niang's news. When she came back this time, Lan Niang also went to the house in the town to take a look, the houses were all fine, a little dilapidated, as long as they were repaired, they could live in them.
I don't know where Gui Niang went, there was no news at all, I went to Gui Niang's mother-in-law's house, and the building was empty.
Xin said: "Gui Niang has an embroidery craft, and she has made progress over the years. Her mother-in-law took care of the housework at home and didn't ask Gui Niang to touch it at all. Gui Niang's man was admitted to Xiucai in the second conscription and was exempted from conscription. It's been a good year. ”
"Then I'll be relieved." Lan Niang smiled comfortably.
"We have established a new dynasty, and I heard that the talent of the previous dynasty is useless, and you have to re-take the test to be exempt from taxes. I don't know if your brother-in-law has been studying at home all these years. Xin whispered, "Your brother-in-law has the ability to take the exam, and your sister's embroidery is good." Your sister gave birth to a son, and her stomach stopped moving, and your brother-in-law bought a waiter from outside, saying that he was working, and the next year your brother-in-law had another daughter. ”
"He's so ungrateful!" Lan Niang was angry and said, "When I asked to marry my sister, I spoke better than I sang. He is a poor scholar, and my Erlang has made great efforts to find the examination papers of Xiucai over the years for him. A thick box of books was delivered. He swore to God that he would be good to my sister. That's how good it is for Gui Niang! What a white-eyed wolf! ”
Xin sighed twice, "Your father can't help, and he can't suppress the position of the old man." The first two years were not easy, and your father went to Gui Niang to ask for money, but was kicked out by your brother-in-law. Your brother-in-law looks down on your sister even more. ”
