After this buffer, Xu Qingyan's mood slowly calmed down, went to the main hall to find a chair to sit down, and asked the old man, "Are you the village chief here?" ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xu Qingyan to ask this, and said lightly after a while: "What's the matter, I don't know what advice the girl has?" ”

"Advice?" Xu Qingyan sneered, "As the head of a village, I know the law and break the law, what advice do you say I should have." ”

The old man's face did not fluctuate, and he said calmly: "I said, if the girl wants to report to the official, just go." “

Wu Tianyou couldn't look at it and said: "Who gave you the confidence to defy the law of the country and openly abandon babies and drown them." ”

The old man did not answer, and a faint disdain appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Xu Qingyan snorted coldly in her heart: "Zelan, later you take the post of the county lord to the county office, I want to see if the county magistrate here cares, if he doesn't care, the county lord doesn't mind taking this matter to the heavens."

"Yes, miss." Zeeland replied with a strong voice.

When the old man heard this, his heart sank, and then he mocked: "The girl is not looking for someone to pretend to be a reliable one, but the old man knows that there is only a county lord in this dynasty, and there is no county lord." “

Luojia Village is three or four hundred miles away from the capital, and in ancient times when traffic was blocked, Xu Qingyan's name could not be passed on to this small village.

"Oh, look at this, then." As she spoke, Xu Qingyan slowly took out a topaz seal from her sleeve, handed it to the old man and said, "Look, can you still read words?" “

The old man took a closer look and saw four big characters engraved at the bottom of the seal.......

"Le.... Lord of Le'an. The old man muttered in disbelief.

"Bold, when you see the county lord, you still don't kneel." The spirit fairy spoke out at the right time, and scolded in a reprimand.

Xu Qingyan turned her head and threw her an approving look, although she didn't like to put up a shelf on weekdays, but today she really wanted to "put the county lord on the shelf." ”

The old man came back to his senses, fell to his knees with a thud, and begged for mercy repeatedly: "It's the old man who has no eyes and no beads, and he dares to speak inappropriately, and he hopes that the county lord will forgive his sins." ”

After this buffer, Xu Qingyan also calmed down, took a deep breath and asked the old man, "Are you the village chief here?" ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xu Qingyan to ask this, and said lightly after a while: "What's the matter, I don't know what advice the girl has?" ”

"Forgive sins, I can forgive if I lose words, but abandoned babies and drowning babies are a matter of human life, how can you let me forgive!"

"The county lord spares his life, we also have a hard time?" At this time, the woman on the side reacted and hurriedly asked for mercy.

Although she didn't know what rank the county lord was or how big an official he was, the old men of her family were all kneeling, and they must be the ones who could govern them.

"Hardship, what hardship, don't tell me it's because you can't afford it." Xu Qingyan said angrily.

The woman was a little sneered when she heard this: "Don't look at my family, the county lord lives in a brick house, this brick house is still handed down from the previous generation, to our generation, although there is only one son, but the son has given birth to four children, this family of eight people, every year just the Ding tax will get a lot of silver, plus the land tax ....."

"Wait...."Hearing this, Wu Tianyou interrupted: "As far as this son knows, the Ding tax is only paid by men when they are adults, and the child you just threw away is not only a minor, but also a girl, which has no effect on the Ding tax you said." ”

"What....." The woman was stunned for a moment, glanced at the old man, and showed indignation: "But we have always had to pay the tax here, and the child must pay it from birth, regardless of gender." ”

It turns out that the crux of the problem is here!

It is also the local officials who have made up clever names to exploit the people and obey the voice, as if this has been the case for generations.

"But even that's not a reason for you to drown your child."

It is said that there were already effective contraceptive methods in ancient times, even if these rural fools did not know about it.

If you are born, you can give it away, and there is no need to erase a small life with such cruel means.

After this buffer, Xu Qingyan also calmed down, took a deep breath and asked the old man, "Are you the village chief here?" ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xu Qingyan to ask this, and said lightly after a while: "What's the matter, I don't know what advice the girl has?" ”
