"You take good care of the house," Jiang Nuan stood up suddenly, "If I'm not mistaken, there will be a lot of people selling cabbage later, you and Xiao San look at the point, how much you collect, I'll go out first." ”

"Mother, where are you going?"

Jiang Nuan didn't look back, "Your uncle." ”

When Jiang Nuan arrived at the house of the head of Huang Village, he did not see the people he had guessed.

Feeling the confusion in Jiang Nuan's eyes, Sister-in-law Huang explained, "Everyone in the village has gone to the patriarch's house, and it is not your eldest brother and a village chief who can be in charge of such a major event." ”

Speaking of which, the most important speaker is still the patriarch.

"Big brother went too? Where's Daddy? ”

"It's not here," Sister-in-law Huang sighed, "This year's conscription is really life-threatening, and such a big matter must not be discussed." ”

Originally, she had planned to spend two taels of silver to give her son a year off, but who knew that it would suddenly be doubled.

Last year, I bought two acres of land, although the family has a little silver, a total of less than ten taels, a total of four taels, what should I do if I encounter a disaster?

However, she has only one son, and she can't watch people die, even if she is distressed, the money has to be paid.

"Sister-in-law," Jiang Nuan took out five taels of broken silver and handed it over, "You take this money first." ”

"What are you doing here?" Sister-in-law Huang stuffed the silver back with an angry face, "What are you doing with your money, take it yourself." ”

"Sister-in-law," Jiang Nuan smiled flatteringly, "you just take it, and I will honor you." ”

"It's not that I don't have a son, where is your turn to be honored," Jiang Nuan's words made Sister-in-law Huang very happy, but she still refused strongly, "Say don't want it, take it yourself, my mother is in the backyard, I've been talking to you for a long time, let's go find her." ”

"Okay," Jiang Nuan reluctantly put away the silver, and made up her mind to give it to her mother-in-law later.

When the two arrived in the backyard, Mrs. Huang sat on a small stool pulling weeds.

"Mother, Yaya is here, rest for a while, let's talk."

"Yaya is here," Mrs. Huang raised her head and smiled happily, "Why are you free today?" ”

"It's not that the conscription is making trouble," Sister-in-law Huang sighed, "Who can sit on such a heavy conscription?" ”

Hearing this, the smile on Mrs. Huang's face froze. "Who would have thought that this year's conscription would be so heavy!"

How many years have been the rule, but this year, it has been changed.

"Mother, don't worry," Sister-in-law Huang softly admonished, "Our family will use silver to pay this year, and we won't serve forced labor." ”

"Sister-in-law, I'm afraid this won't work," Jiang Nuan lowered her eyes and analyzed, "In previous years, there was no quota, as long as the number of people was enough, now that the task is divided, the fewer people who serve in the conscription, the heavier the spread, this year, I'm afraid no one will be able to escape." ”

In previous years, he spent his family's money to resist servitude, and no one could say anything.

If you spend more money this year, this is eating human blood steamed buns.

This kind of situation, for a village like Huangjiakou, which has the same roots and the same ethnicity, will never allow it to happen.

"What then?" Sister-in-law Huang's face was pale, without a trace of blood, "I only have a single seedling in the mountain." ”

"What's the panic," Mrs. Huang frowned, "Your father and Xianggong are here, so you need a woman to worry about this." ”

Mrs. Huang was calm on the surface, but she was very anxious in her heart.

There must be one person in the family, and the mountains can't go, only their own wife and son can go.

However, these two people are not young and strong young men, and they don't do much heavy work on weekdays, and they are afraid of being forced into labor suddenly......
