"I guess it's the county lord who takes a fancy to it, after all, he is a person who can do things, but I don't know what he did before."

Liang Yiyi raised his eyebrows, where can he afford to raise horses without any money, you must know that the magistrates are not very rich in these years, especially when the officials are Qingming, the Yulu of a county order is only forty or fifty taels in a month, and even if there is an official land rewarded by the imperial court, it is only within 100 acres.

This may seem like a lot, but there are also a lot of subordinates to feed underneath.

Of course, the tax can also be pumped a lot in the last year, but this county order is very good, it should not be too much, in this regard, their Chu family has not yet reached an adult male, and the total tax is 25 taxes according to the total amount of 25 taxes per mu, and there is no need to serve forced labor.

Twenty-five tax one, the poll tax is also put inside, which is equivalent to the yield of one acre of land according to three stones, which is about 360 catties, and the tax paid is only less than 15 catties, five acres of land plus five acres of land, and more than 100 catties of taxes a year, the taxes of the land here are lower than those of the fields, according to the annual output and the degree of disaster, there will be ups and downs.

There are many heavens and earths, and there are many taxes, but as long as the years are not bad, the balance is very good, and the income is very considerable.

Of course, twenty-five taxes and one, the county order naturally earned some, and it must go through the court about thirty taxes and one, but even so, it is very good.

Thinking about her heart, she unconsciously leaned closer and closer to Chu Mingxuan's arms.

"Is it cold?"

Chu Mingxuan noticed her small movements and couldn't help but ask.

Walking at night, especially riding a horse, it is really cool when the cold wind blows, especially at this time when the weather is already cold and there is mist at night.

"It's not cold, it's panic."

Liang Yiyi was speechless, the cold was nothing, it was only just over seven and a half at this time, and the only uncomfortable thing was his waist, and he felt that his internal organs were displaced.

"Why don't I bring you clothes?" Chu Mingxuan said, he was about to reach out for his clothes, the saddle was very hard, and people who were not used to it were really uncomfortable.

"No need."

Liang Yiyi shook her head, "You have to get used to it." ”

"That's right, Black Wind is already very good, if you change Xia Ming's, it will be uncomfortable."

Chu Mingxuan chuckled.

As he spoke, the two horses crossed the night sky and unconsciously sank into the depths of the valley.

The southern hilly area, uneven, whether the land or the mountains, are very mixed, for the people, it is difficult to plant a large area, for pedestrians, the road is difficult to walk.

However, Rao is like this, this difficult journey has turned into a smooth road for a long time under the hooves of the two horses, even at night, both Chu Mingxuan and Xia Ming slowed down, and still arrived at Xinhe Town in less than an hour.

Faint lights, flickering under the night sky, engulfed in darkness.

Compared with Wangyang Town, Xinhe Town is much quieter and smaller, but it is very densely populated, with uneven houses, lying across the ground level, looking like rolling hills, no less than six or seven hundred households.

It's just that as she moves forward, what makes her feel heavy is that many families have not rested, and there is even a place where the lights are concentrated in the distance, and the voices are boiling.

"It's such a big town, it's comparable to a three-star town, but it's a pity that something big happened."

Liang Yiyi exclaimed, even if they were most familiar with Sanxing Town, and then Wangyang Town, which they had been to once, but this Xinhe Town was more concentrated, more refined, and the feng shui pattern was very good.

It's a pity that no matter how good the place is, today is destined to be unpeaceful.

"Nice place, it's going to be fine."

Chu Mingxuan nodded in agreement, although this town is small and simple, but the weather is very good, much stronger than Chujia Village, with such weather, no matter how big it is, it can be passed.

"Young Master Chu, Mrs. Chu, it's here."

As soon as he arrived in the town, Xia Ming turned over and dismounted, then pointed to a spacious compound behind him, and said, "The county lord will settle there, please." ”

"Okay, I'm in trouble."

Liang Yiyi and Chu Mingxuan also got off the horse with interest and followed Xia Ming over.

Liang Yiyi looked around curiously as she walked, and soon found that around the courtyard, there were figures flickering, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "Who is that?" ”

"It is estimated that it is the county government's catch." Chu Mingxuan's eyes flashed.

"And the guards?"

Liang Yiyi frowned, the last time she saw the county order, the other party didn't let anyone accompany her except for a coachman, why was she so serious this time.

Xia Ming smiled when he heard this: "This is what I specially called over, so that I can run errands for the master, I must pass through this is not a county seat, and some things can't be made up temporarily." ”

"That's right."

Liang Yiyi thought about it, running errands is real, but it is also a deterrent or an organization of villagers.

In addition to curbing and preventing the outbreak of the plague, those who are infected must also be isolated, and in addition to finding the source of the plague, these cannot be done without a strong hand.

When they arrived at the door, Xia Ming asked them to wait for a while, and then quickly ran into the courtyard to report.

Seeing this, Liang Yiyi looked at the big house in front of him, "I don't know whose house this is?" ”

I have to say that although the county magistrate personally went to Xinhe Town, he was very particular about the place he settled, and the place he chose was not only spacious, but also far away from the center of the crowd, which was obviously to avoid plague infection.

"I guess it's right." Chu Mingxuan gossiped.

"Lizheng's family?"

Liang Yiyi was stunned, "The Li Zheng family is so rich? ”

The so-called Li Zheng is the mayor of the town, and like the village chief, he belongs to the head of the town, but this Xinghe Town looks extraordinary, but it is not rich enough that a Li Zheng can afford to build such a big house.

Chu Mingxuan said and thought about it, and explained: "I heard before that the Li Zheng of this Xinghe Town used to be in business for generations, and he also worked as an imperial businessman, and the house was left at that time, but it is a pity that these generations have declined, and it is rumored that half of the fields in this Xinghe Town used to belong to their family." ”

"No wonder, it turned out to be a squire."

Liang Yi knew that as a family of squires, it was inevitable to have such pomp.

"You can't talk and offend people carefully."

Chu Mingxuan was speechless, Rao was used to his daughter-in-law's thinking jump, but such an inappropriate sentence popped up from time to time, which still made him very helpless.

You have to know that the squire is strong or something, it's not a good thing, these years the court is not prosperous and the local party is formed, the small landlord is just that, it really reaches the level of the local tyrant and squire, but there is no good fruit to eat.

"I know, I'm just telling you, I know measure."

Liang Yiyi sneered, but she didn't think about it so much.

"Young Master Chu, Doctor Liang, the county master is invited."

Just as the two were gossiping, Xia Ming went back and forth, beckoning the two to come in.

"I'm tired."

Chu Mingxuan nodded, and immediately walked ahead.

After all, he is the head of the family, and on a formal occasion like this, he naturally will not let his daughter-in-law take the lead.

This is not only because men and women are different, nor because they don't want their daughters-in-law to be strong, but on occasions like this, outsiders attach great importance to the rules, and if one is not good, it is easy to provoke gossip about their daughter-in-law.

Liang Yiyi saw Chu Mingxuan's small movements, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she didn't say much, of course, she didn't pretend to be a gentle lady, but stopped her back and behaved generously.
