"Li Zheng, this is it", the lean Zhao Shugui trembled and handed over the jar in his hand.

The illness is like a mountain, the illness is like a thread, the high fever in early July made Zhao Shugui hurt his foundation, and missed the best treatment time, even if Zheng returned home later, it took more than a month to carefully recuperate, people can stand up, and they can also do some light physical work, but if you want to recover as before, it will take at least half a year.

In Zhao Wuye's courtyard, Zhao Shankui, the current leader and patriarch of Zhaojia Village, sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, slanted a glance at Zhao Shugui, who was afraid and trembling, did not raise his hand, and snorted heavily in his nose.

"If you dare to lie to me, this year's field tax will be increased by 20%."

Zhao Shugui's hand shook, so shocked that he almost didn't hold the jar, but when he thought of the things in his hand, he couldn't help but be full of confidence.

"Li Zheng, even if you borrow my guts, I don't dare to lie to you, this thing was taken back from my girl who went out, it's really a good thing, don't believe it, you see, I haven't seen it in my life anyway."

As he spoke, Zhao Shugui handed the jar forward again, flattering with a hopeful expression.

Zhao Shankui tapped the table of the Eight Immortals with his fingers, and raised his chin slightly, "Put it on the table first, I have something to ask you, it is about your daughter who was passed out." ”

Zhao Shugui gently put the jar down, before he had time to retract his hand, hearing this, he was so frightened that he waved his hand at Zhao Shankui again and again, begging for mercy: "That girl has a bad relationship with me, I am not familiar with her affairs, I am really not familiar with her." ”

No wonder Li Zheng called him over for no reason, it turned out that it was all because of Du Jun's demon girl!

The corners of Zhao Shankui's mouth twitched, and he glanced at this cousin who was not out of five suits according to the seniority of the clan, this guy was not as brave as a woman, and he could actually let his own daughter hold it, even if he went out, it was also her father, which was really a shame for the men of Zhaojia Village.

However, since Du Jun, a woman, returned to Zhaojia Village to serve as the patriarch of Li Zhenghe, she learned from the villagers and her father Zhao Changshan that this is not a simple woman.

As the daughter of Zhaojia Village, she married a county official surnamed Song, although she was an inconspicuous concubine in the Song Mansion of Mingyuan, she was also the first among so many married women in Zhaojia Village.

As for setting up a farm and raising more than 100 people, he automatically ignored it. If you can't keep it, those are the industries of the Song Mansion in Mingyuan, and whoever is a big family can have no way back, but it is just a means to deceive outsiders, and it can't be true.

And it is true that he has something to do with Du Jun, Du Jun has fifteen acres of land in Zhaojia Village, of which ten acres of land were left by the original owner's adoptive father, and they were given to the family of his good brother Zhao Yongbin before his death, and five acres were sold to the old house in the village. Now that it is almost time to pay the field tax, affected by the drought, this year's harvest is unsatisfactory, both good and bad, and the imperial court has not issued an official document to reduce the tax, according to the practice of previous years, the field tax and miscellaneous taxes account for about 40% of the output, and this year it will definitely be more than in previous years.

In addition to the field tax and miscellaneous taxes, Zhao Shankui, as the Zhao family village, is also thinking about leaving some output for the village ancestral hall and school to renovate, the pirates entered the village in the spring, the ancestral hall and the school hall have also suffered varying degrees of damage, renovation is imperative, he also has the idea of establishing his absolute status in the village with this merit.

As for the silver taels required for the renovation, of course, it is apportioned to all households in the village, and the specific amount of each family is completely in Zhao Shankui's thoughts, and he doesn't mind using this to knock on some disobedient thorns, so there was the scene when Zhao Shugui trembled when he heard that the output of two more percent was added.

Zhao Shugui is not the right time to get sick, no one takes care of his own acres of land, and the barren ones are no different from the wild grasslands, not to mention adding two percent more, this year's tax grain may not be enough, can he not be afraid!?

And Zhao Shankui's purpose of looking for Du Jun is also very simple, a married girl with a background has nothing to do with him, and there is no need to be evil, but if you can show your sincerity with apportionment, it is not bad to sell your favor to Du Jun, and it would be better if you could get involved with the Song Mansion because of this.

After all, the head of the Song Mansion is the younger brother of the British Mansion, although the British Mansion is not as good as before, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and never underestimate the noble family, the background is different, and it may be able to recover again, which is an important reason why he has been relatively stable in running the Qinglong Gang for more than 20 years, not contaminating the powerful, and seizing everything possible to make friends.

The idea is very good, however, Zhao Shankui couldn't help but glance at Zhao Shugui again, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed, shouldn't the daughter born to this shrinking man be so virtuous and can't be on the stage, right? If this is the case, then Du Jun's use value will be greatly reduced, and the strategy of friendship will have to be changed again.

The change of thought was only in an instant, Zhao Shankui lowered his eyelids, raised the shelf and said to Zhao Shugui seriously: "Shugui, as a cousin, I have a few words to say about you, although the eldest niece has gone out, but the blood relationship can't be broken because of this, and I also heard that my younger sister and two little nieces have lived on the farm for a long time, what does this mean?" It shows that the eldest niece still remembers our old Zhao family, and she is a grateful person, you can't make a mistake, and you won't recognize it when you go out, how can this work? ”

The more Zhao Shugui listened, the more frightened he became, his head was sweating like a spring, and after a while, his back was soaked in cold sweat.

I had the intention to interrupt Zhao Shankui, but I didn't dare, so I didn't wait until Zhao Shankui finished this long speech, and then hurriedly explained: "Li Zheng, Du Jun's girl is ruthless, and she took her mother over just because she wanted to ........"

Heli, he can't say these two words, especially being pressed by others, which is even more shameful for Zhao Shugui.

"Do you want her mother to be separated from you?"

Unexpectedly, the two words he was embarrassed to say were broken by Zhao Shankui's fluttering words, Zhao Shugui raised his head awkwardly, his face turned red, his mouth was half open, and he squirmed for a long time, but he couldn't say a word.

"Do you want to ask where I got that?" Zhao Shankui glanced at Zhao Shugui with disdain, what else did he not understand as a man, and said coldly: "I not only know that the eldest niece wants her mother to divorce you, but also know why, it was you who beat your daughter-in-law to death, can she ignore it as a daughter?" ”

Zhao Shankui's tone was very heavy, faintly with the taste of admonition, Zhao Shugui stood on the ground and drooped his head, without saying a word, silent.

The most annoying kind of person in Zhao Shankui's life is Zhao Shugui, wilting, he can't even hit a fart with a stick, and he is upset when he looks at it.

After a long time, seeing that Zhao Shugui was still that dead, Zhao Shankui was irritable, frowned and waved at him, and pushed him out. Take a look at the latest chapter of "The Ancient Life of the Last Woman" and read it for free for the first time.
