Chapter 107: How Many Cattle Are Ploughed
Qiu Niang's ears pricked up.
The government engaged in such a big battle, it turned out that it was looking for someone.
It's the nephews who are still looking for them.
Did they do something?
Qiu Niang shook her head secretly and denied her conjecture.
A man with crippled legs and a little girl who was born like a doll in a painting, what can he do to break the law?
If you want to say that you can do this kind of illegal thing, this blind and vicious sea minister still said it in the past.
Qiu Niang remembered Huang Yigong who was writing a medical case in the house.
Hai Xianggong instructed her not to talk to Huang Yigong more, so as not to make Huang Yigong go crazy and hurt people.
But she has been taking care of Huang Yigong for so many days, and she hasn't seen Huang Yigong go crazy, but Hai Xianggong scolded Huang Yigong at every turn.
Speaking of which, the temper of this Hai Xianggong is also a little too fierce, no wonder there is no lady yet.
Qiu Niang was distracted, so she missed a few words, and the little girl talked to Hai Xianggong about something else.
"Find out what this Lord Cen Tairu is all about. As for my uncle, don't worry about it. My uncle is very clever and has his own way of solving it. We took the risk of contacting him, but we were dragging him down. ”
Lao Hai responded, and asked Xiao Yuan with a smile: "What do you want to eat at night?" I just passed through the West Market and saw a notice posted saying that the cattle would be slaughtered in a while. ”
Ploughing cattle is an important farming tool, and in the Dayan law, if anyone commits suicide and eats beef, he will be imprisoned.
But when the ploughing cattle are old, it will be wasted to raise them again.
If it is a privately raised cattle, when it is slaughtered, it must go to the government to make a record. With this record, it is not a big problem whether to sell or eat at home.
If the cattle were sent to the township by the government, they would be taken back by the government and slaughtered, and then the government would sell the beef.
Lao Hai said that he posted a post telling that the cattle should be slaughtered, which is the cultivated cattle raised by the government.
Xiao Yuanhao used to like to eat beef, but unfortunately beef was too expensive, and she didn't eat it often.
I thought that I had become a princess and could eat beef with all my might. But because of this law, if the royal family wants to set an example, it is difficult for her to even eat beef once a month.
Hearing that the government was going to slaughter the cow, Xiao Yuanhao jumped off the swing, bluffing Su Su's face changed: "Female monarch, your feet are just right!" ”
Xiao Yuan couldn't take care of his ankles, and hurriedly pulled Lao Hai out: "Go quickly, go quickly, you won't have to eat if you're late!" Let's buy more, Hai Daweng, you can find a way to give some to your uncle, so that he can try them too. ”
Lao Hai was secretly pleased, in the end, it was his nephew, even if Her Royal Highness the princess was angry with the little general, she was still thinking about the little general.
He squatted down, carried Xiao Yuanhao to his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry, there are only a few people in this county who can afford to eat beef." The official notice said that two cows would be slaughtered, and there was more beef, which was enough for the female monarch to eat. ”
The two of them walked out of the door laughing, and Su Su motioned for Qiu Niang to follow.
Qiu Niang hesitated: "What am I going to do with it?" ”
"Qiu Niangzi go quickly, I'm small, and I can't lift heavy things, so I can't help if I go with me, but it will add to the chaos. Besides, there are a lot of people in the market outside, and I'm afraid that I'll lose my lady in a while. After all, Qiu Niangzi is from Baima County, so it's good to help ask for the price. ”
Su Su went back to the house and took out a purse and put it in Qiu Niang's hand: "Qiu Niangzi takes the money, what our female monarch and Hai Daweng want to buy, Qiu Niangzi will pay." In addition, I will buy some brightly colored needlework and thread, and I will sew small clothes for our lady, but the needle and thread are not enough. ”
Su Su thought about it, and said: "Whatever Qiu Niangzi likes, just buy it." ”
The purse was heavy, Qiu Niang hung it around her waist, and walked out of the small yard in a daze.
She still couldn't understand what this master did, acting strangely everywhere, and letting such a young maid take charge of the money.
Is this little maid big-hearted, or trusting her so much, isn't she afraid that she will run away with the money?
She didn't sign a deed of sale with the master's family.
Qiu Niang's deed of sale is still in Zhang Yuanfeng's hands, and I don't know where this dead ghost is hiding.
After Zhang Yuanfeng was buried, Qiu Niang originally wanted to sell herself to Xiao Yuanhao to thank the nephew and uncle for their kindness in burying Zhang Yuanfeng.
It was Su Su who received her, Su Su said that she didn't need to sell herself, she wanted to come to work, and the family just lacked a diligent maid who liked to be clean.
Qiu Niang thought that she was going to do rough work, but she never expected that the job she was asked to do was to take care of Huang Yigong.
Such a light work is a lot of wages.
Qiu Niang shook her head, she met a kind person.
It doesn't matter what this master does, she's just here to help.
Even if this master is a Jiangyang thief, the government will not be able to find her head in the future.
Qiu Niang trotted up with the corner of her skirt and found Lao Hai and Xiao Yuan at the entrance of the West Market.
When Xiao Yuan saw her, he beckoned happily: "Qiu Niangzi, come here!" I'm waiting for you to pay the money! ”
Thanks to Zhang Yuanfeng's blessing, there are few people in Baima County who don't know Qiu Niang, who chased Zhang Langjun all over the street with a laundry stick.
Seeing Qiu Niang coming, many neighbors greeted her.
"The hard days of the autumn lady have passed, and I have met a good master's family, and I have gained some weight these days!"
"Qiu Niangzi, Zhang Jialangjun is gone, you will suffer less crime, don't be sad!"
"Qiu Niangzi is young, and she still has to get married. I know a family that is about to marry a stepfamily, and the autumn lady marries to be the head lady, which is more blessed than being a small star! ”
Qiu Niang smiled and nodded incessantly, saying hello to these villagers.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the girl riding on Lao Hai's shoulder, whose face was impatient, so she quickened her pace and squeezed over.
When the girl saw her, her mouth flattened, and she said aggrievedly: "Qiu Niangzi, we are late, and there are many people who have signed up to buy beef." ”
Xiao Yuan never expected that the people in Baima County would be so rich.
Hearing that the government was going to slaughter cattle, a bunch of people were crowded at the entrance of the West Market, all of whom were holding silver to buy beef.
Officials seem to be accustomed to this situation, limiting each household to buy a maximum of ten catties of beef, and one or two more will not be sold.
If you want to buy beef, you have to sign up in advance and pay silver, one or two silver and a pound of meat.
Rao's price is so high, and there are so many people in line that Xiao Yuan was still startled.
The scribe who was named was happy when he heard Xiao Yuan's good little milk voice: "Little girl, how many people are in your family, ten catties of beef are not enough to eat?" Don't worry, in a few days, the government will slaughter the cow. ”
Xiao Yuan was even more surprised: "You don't have a good time in Baima County?" How do you have to slaughter so many cattle? ”
The scribe smiled and said proudly: "There are a lot of ploughing cattle in our county." Twenty-seven villages in four townships, thirty households and one mile, ten miles and one pavilion, twenty ploughing cattle in each pavilion, spread down, there are two ploughing cattle in one mile. That's not all, when it came to farming, the county also sent another ploughing cattle to the townships to help. ”
Xiao Yuanhao's eyes were blank: "Thirty families use two ploughing cows, is it a lot?" "Take a hundred plating and read the latest chapter of "Huaxia Dynasty Song Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
