Chapter 304
In order to make up the poll tax, most families will save rent after the autumn harvest, leaving the family for a year's chewing, and the excess grain can be sold for money. Otherwise, you won't be able to make up enough money for taxes.
At this time, the price of grain was low, which was a cheap price, and the common people who had no money had to sell grain.
Erlang happened to have a little money in his hand, and he couldn't buy grain, so he was stationed on the Zhuangzi in the east.
After handing over the news, the people who were able to return to the clan also had a little food. The families who could not sell food also stayed. It's really that food prices are too low.
The atmosphere in the city was tense, and the atmosphere in the countryside was not good, and it was not until the conscripts gathered and left that the various contradictions gradually decreased. When it comes to the Chinese New Year, it seems that everyone has forgotten the sadness of those relatives who were sent to serve in the army. Life is still going on.
Erlang didn't go back to Mo's house or Xin's house for the New Year this year, and it happened that Gui Niang was free, so she took Pingping to Eighteen Lipu for the New Year.
Lan Niang: "If we don't go to pay New Year's greetings this year, my mother will definitely be unhappy." ”
"My mother doesn't have a happy time. Since Blue Kite gave birth to another daughter, my mother's temperament has become more left, and it is not pleasing to anyone. We still won't go back to swell her eyes. Anyway, I've asked Uncle Banzi to help send the New Year's gift. Erlang crossed Erlang's legs and lay on the recliner.
It's rare to have a sunny day in winter, lying down and basking in the sun, what a beautiful day.
Lan Niang lowered her head to accept the soles of her shoes, and Gui Niang responded a few words from time to time. Take a closer look at Gui Niang, she is also a big girl.
Thinking of this, Lan Niang's face was a little sad, and she asked in a low voice: "Gui Niang, our father can't count on it, you are also a big girl, do you have any requirements?" ”
Gui Niang's face turned red and said, "I listen to my sister and brother-in-law." ”
Lan Niang coughed and said, "I have seen it with your brother-in-law, and one is the little bookkeeper in the teahouse opposite our door." He has read books, and there is a father and stepmother at home, a younger brother and a younger sister. The shopkeeper of the teahouse is his uncle, who released the news that he will split up when he gets married, and he can be the master of the family when he marries. If you have the craft of accounting, you can embroider, and your life will not be too bad in the future. There is also a child who came to the door to ask for marriage. There is also a widowed mother in the family. See for yourself? ”
According to Lan Niang's thoughts, it must be a good accounting room, and life will be better in the future. I just want to settle on this, and Tong Sheng doesn't want to say it. But Erlang asked Lan Niang to say it anyway, so as not to be complained about in the future. Lan Niang had to tell Tong Sheng.
Gui Niang bit her lip and said, "I'll think about it." ”
Lan Niang glanced at Erlang who was shaking the recliner. I couldn't figure it out in my heart. When she fell asleep at night, Lan Niang pulled Erlang to talk to her.
Lan Niang: "Is Gui Niang's brain caught by the door?" Also think about it. ”
Jiro closed his eyes and said, "She is already old and has her own ideas." The embroidery she went to learn saw a lot of dignitaries and nobles, and I don't think it's strange that she wants to be a master. ”
Lan Niang was dumbfounded: "I've seen a lot of dignitaries and nobles, and I don't want to be a master myself." Where a person is a man, it is so easy to do. I don't look at our family's background, it's really a human being who doesn't like our family. is still begging to marry, and it is impossible to have no idea. Gui Niang is dizzy. ”
Erlang sneered and said, "Lan Niang, that's why I asked you to be my daughter-in-law." ”
Lan Niang didn't look at Erlang angrily, and said angrily: "I'm annoying, you still laugh at me." The hippie smiley face is not serious. ”
