These people remembered Shan Tianfang for a while, and then went on to discuss his funeral.

Someone said: "When my old man was there, he got a lot of nanmu to make a coffin, and he made a pair, and there was still a lot of wood left, and I asked Carpenter Hu to help make another pair when I went back." ”

"I'm afraid it's too late, it will take half a month to make a coffin, how can I wait so long."

"What if you don't fight? Do you bury it with a grass sweep? ”

"That's not going to work, but there's nowhere to buy Shoufang, alas."

Sanbao also came today, he usually talks a lot, but today is the first time to speak, he said: "My old man made a coffin several years ago, let's take it out for the general first." "Sanbao's father is not very old, only in his early fifties.

Someone asked, "Then your old man would be willing?" ”

Someone else said: "Sanbao, you kid has always been very shrewd, why did you change sex today?" ”

Sanbao smiled and said, "I'm not stingy, how can this be called a sex change." ”

"If you are serious, even if you are willing, your old man will not be able to do it."

San Bao said: "If there is nothing that can't be done, it's a big deal that I'll get some wood and give him another pair." ”

"That's okay, and then the money from Shoufang will be scraped together."

Qi Xiang also gave a thumbs up and praised: "Sanbao, you are doing this authentically and brightly. ”

"Hey, hey." Sanbao smiled and said, "Who was it just now, didn't you still have Nanmu at home, come out and give it to me, and give it to my old man to use for longevity." ”

……

After a long while, Fang Huaru came out expressionlessly, and Lu Yu asked her, "Is General Shan going to move back?" ”

"Let's move back, it's too far away."

Lu Yu thought to himself, in fact, it is also beneficial for Shan Tian Fang to be buried far away from Yangshan Village, Fang Huaru will never marry in this life. Shan Tian Fang has just passed away, she must be sad at this time, but she will not be like this forever, after a long time, maybe the sadness will fade, at that time it is better to be out of sight.

Everyone else gathered around with great concern, and they all wanted to say something caring, but they found that they didn't know what to say. Qi Xiang said that he went to see General Shan, and then the others followed.

Lu Yu didn't go, he said to Fang Huaru: "Then look back at the day, and then come and move General Shan back." ”

"On the first day of February, you don't have to look at the day." Fang Huaru's expression was very calm, but the tiredness on her face still couldn't be hidden.

Lu Yu nodded: "There are still three days, and then I will come back to collect General Shan's body and transport it back." Let's choose a good place for him in the next two days. Lu Yu was worried again, the weather was not cold, Shan Tianfang's body had already been buried for a day, and in two or three days, I was afraid that it would rot. Therefore, Lu Yu needs to use some means to deal with Shan Tianfang's body.

At noon, when he went back to Dunlin Town, Lu Yu got out of the car first, and then went to the town to guard the yamen, but the yamen courtyard was still empty, and he couldn't even see a government official.

Lu Yu inquired around the yamen, and the residents in this vicinity didn't know where Zhao Shoubei had gone.

Lu Yu planned to wait for Shan Tianfang's funeral before going to the county seat.

On the last day of the first lunar month, Shan Tianfang had not moved the grave and reburied, and Lu Yu did not go to Jinhua City, but two officials came to the village, two unfamiliar faces, not the subordinates of Zhao Shoubei in the past.

The two officials brought bad news, and together with Fang Daping, they called the men, women, and children of Yangshan Village to the compound, and then announced to the villagers that Yangshan Village was going to start paying grain this year.

In previous years, the government also said that Yangshan Village would pay grain, but not necessarily someone would come to collect it every year. If someone accepts it, everyone will hand it over casually, and if no one accepts it, then they will naturally be happy not to pay. So when the two officials said that they were going to pay grain this year, the villagers didn't have a big reaction.

But then, the two officials said that because in the past three years, no one in the village had paid half a grain of grain, so they should pay four times the grain rent this year. And because the newcomer Lin Daren is sympathetic to the people of the county, it is not easy for Li Min to farm, so he does not have to pay four times this year, as long as he has three times the number of years of communication.

As soon as he finished saying this, everyone burst into flames, as if they had fried a pot.

Immediately, someone shouted: "In previous years, one acre of land, five buckets of grain, this tripled, it is one and a half stones, we have all handed it over, what else do we eat?" ”

"That's right, how much grain can be harvested in an acre of land? Doesn't that make us all hand? ”

"It's too dark, it's too dark, it's not going to live."

Lu Yu also felt that the new rules set by Lin Si were a bit incredible, a few years ago, natural disasters continued, and many fields were almost innumerable, and now that the year is just right, he actually wants to make up for the "rent owed" by the villagers in the past few years.

A villager with a clear mind said: "In the past two years, if the government and yamen had led us to fight the disaster and survive, we would have paid for the grain." But in fact, as soon as this natural disaster occurs, you officials will run away without a trace, and you will not care about the common people. Is it reasonable for the current official to come back and let us make up the rent for the first two years? ”

"That's right, do you still want to be shameless, when the year is bad, the officials are gone, and now the sky is good, and you still have the face to come back and ask for food?"

The two officials, one fat and one thin, were unimpressed by the reaction of the villagers. The fat man said lightly: "It's useless to tell us this, if any of you have any ideas or opinions, just go to Lord Lin." ”

Fang Daping stood behind the two officials, and said with a smile at this time: "Don't worry, folks, listen to me first." Everyone thinks, in the first three years, the court didn't ask us for a grain of grain, but there are countless people up and down the court who want to eat and drink, and this grain always belongs to the people who farm our fields. Besides, Lord Lin didn't let us make up for the first three years, isn't it just as long as we make up for two years? ”

"Fang Daping, what are you fartting?" The villagers still didn't dare to scold the two officials, but the other party Daping would not have the slightest politeness.

"Fang Daping, are you from Yangshan Village? You're a bullshit village chief, and you forgot what your last name was, right? ”

Lu Yu also despised Fang Daping, but he didn't open his mouth to scold.

"I'll go to your uncle, Fang Daping, are you human? You don't have a farm or what? ”

"His family farmed, and he was the village head, so maybe he didn't have to pay rent."

……

Fang Daping's scolded dog was bloody, and he shrunk his neck and hid behind the two officials, never daring to say a word again. His daughter-in-law and son were also in the crowd, and both mother and son bowed their heads and did not say a word.

The fat official said again: "It's useless for you to be anxious, this is the above regulation, I said, if someone is unwilling to pay, go and ask Lord Lin for an explanation." Anyway, this year's rules are like this, after the autumn harvest, we will come to collect grain. ”

Finally, someone couldn't hold it anymore and shouted, "I'll take your mother's shit." ”

The two officials were furious and shouted, "Who? Who is insulting tolerance, stand up for me. ”

Lu Yu stood in the crowd, glanced at the fat official, and said secretly: "These two guys, I didn't know where they were on an errand before, do you really think that the people in the mountains will be afraid of him as a little servant?" ”

Since ancient times, most of the people in the villages in remote mountains have been fierce and do not know the royal law. Although the people of Yangshan Village are not barbaric, most of them have no thoughts of law and discipline in their hearts. Therefore, the person who scolded the official just now spoke again: "It was your grandfather and I who scolded, what's wrong?" ”

This person's name is Fourth Brother Wu, who lives in the middle of Yangshan Village, and is a farmer who rarely speaks, and Lu Yu is not very familiar with him.

The fat official was very angry, he laughed angrily, pointed at Fourth Brother Wu, and said with a sneer: "You come out for me, come out immediately." ”

"I'll give you uncle." Fourth Brother Wu scolded again, but did not walk out of the crowd.

Of course, the fat official would not stupidly approach the crowd to pull Fourth Brother Wu out, he turned his head and asked Fang Daping: "Village Chief Fang, what is this Diao Min called?" ”

Fang Daping was a little embarrassed, he smiled, and said: "Don't be angry, two poor masters, you can't meet these ignorant little people." ”

Fourth Brother Wu knew that Fang Daping was speaking for himself, so although Fang Daping said that he didn't know, he didn't scold back, only glanced at Fang Daping lightly.

At this time, the thin official spoke again: "A group of Diao people, Lord Lin came to your place just to rectify public order, rich peasants and businesses, and benefit you." But you still don't know what to do, and let you pay the rent you should pay, and you still push back and push, and chirp crookedly, which is simply unreasonable. ”

The thin official should have read some books, but he didn't read much, and he was half-literate and half-vulgar in one sentence.

"Get out." It was Lu Yu who opened his mouth this time, he didn't know how to scold people, and it was a little difficult to open his mouth with the word "roll".

"Who? Who is it? Stand up for Lao Tzu. "The thin officer's temper seems to be three points greater than that of his companions.

"Fuck off." Lu Yu scolded again.

"Who!" The thin official was almost furious, and his skinny face was swollen and red.

Since Lu Yu opened his mouth to scold, he naturally had the idea of coming out. He pushed aside the crowd, slowly walked in front of the two officials, and looked at the two officials with expressionless faces.

Fang Daping wanted to calm things down, he said to Lu Yu with a smile: "Da Yu, don't be angry, listen to the two masters first." ”

Lu Yu glanced at Fang Daping, and a burst of sadness suddenly surged in his heart, feeling sad for Fang Daping. I don't understand why Fang Daping ran forward and backward for the two minions sent by Lin Siyao, and was scolded by people with a cold face and again. Could it be that in Fang Daping's heart, the identity of the head of Yangshan Village is really more important than the identity of the villagers of Yangshan Village?

The thin official and his companion glanced at each other, then turned their heads to stare at Lu Yu, and shouted, "Who are you?" What is it called? ”

"Lu Yu." Lu Yu was still expressionless, and gently spit out two words: "Get out." ”

Obviously, these two officials didn't know Lu Yu, nor had they heard of his name, and the two of them didn't draw their swords, they reached out together to catch Lu Yu.

Of course, Lu Yu would not be caught by them, and it seemed that his body did not move much, so he avoided the four hands stretched out by the two officials at the same time.

The officials were not stupid, and they found that the person opposite seemed to have some ability, so when they went on the second time, they both pulled out their waist knives.
