Chapter 567: Conscription
The concubines are also full of gunpowder when they talk, even if the relationship is quite good on weekdays, they can't help but quarrel one by one at this time.
After all, no one wants their husbands to go to the army.
Not to mention how many years it will take to come back, it is a question of whether it can be returned.
Li Zheng looked at the chaotic villagers who were shrouded in panic and sadness and sighed in their hearts, this time, I don't know how many people will never come back!
But this is the will of the imperial court, as a subject only has the share of obedience, how can there be room for bargaining?
"Okay, okay, let's all disperse, go home and discuss with a good family, all the lists must be reported to the county within five days, and we will leave at the end of the month at the latest."
"You don't have to be too nervous, it's just a conscription, I inquired, the north side is quite peaceful, and there hasn't been a war for several years. This conscription is only because many veterans are old and can no longer serve and have to be dismissed and return to their hometowns, and they need to replenish the number of border troops, and it is not that they must go to the battlefield if they go. We have Daqing Guotai and civil security, how can there be so many battles to fight? ”
"At most, the people who go there just suffer a little bit when they train on weekdays. But we countrymen, isn't that what it is like to do farm work on weekdays? What is there to be afraid of? I will be able to come back in a few years, and when the time comes, I will come back after learning all my skills, what's wrong? ”
"Don't worry about the relatives who stay at home, I promise, the village will take good care of your family for you!"
"It's all gone, go home and discuss it carefully, they are all blood relatives, if you have something to say, don't make trouble! It's all big guys, there's nothing bad to say! ”
"Let's go back!"
Hearing this, the people who were worried and could not find the birds on the branches felt a little calm, or shook their heads and sighed, or frowned, or sympathized, or secretly rejoiced, and scattered home.
Su Jin smiled at Qin Lang and said, "It's okay, it has nothing to do with our family." Although our family is not eligible, but we are foreigners, we will also count it as a share, and pay two hundred taels of silver. ”
Qin Lang was a little distracted, he didn't hear Su Jin's words at all, Su Jin smiled and said again, he came back to his senses, nodded indiscriminately, and hummed.
The next day, Mrs. Zhao came with her two sons crying and crying, begging Su Jin Qin Lang to help, she has two sons, which one she is reluctant to let go to the conscription, as long as Su Jin Qin Lang is willing to help, she is willing to let Qin Fang leave, but in exchange, Qin Fang has to leave half of the dowry to the Zhao family.
Mrs. Zhao didn't plan to return all the dowries to Qin Fang, but although she was reluctant, she knew that it was unrealistic to leave all of Qin Fang's dowries.
Where are Su Jin and Qin Lang to provoke? If they were really provoked, they would not have been driven away from the grange in Xikou Village at that time.
And how long has Qin Fang been married to their family? It is simply impossible to say that all the dowries have been spent.
Therefore, Qin Fang's dowry, she can keep half of it and spend a lot of money on Li Zheng and the patriarch, maybe it will work. To want to stay all is undoubtedly a dream.
These two people are rich and powerful, I heard that they know the big officials in the city, she is not timid on her face, she dares to spill her face, in fact, she is also playing drums in her heart.
If they really want to do anything to her Zhao family, she has no chance of winning at all.
Not to mention far away, just look at how they deal with the Fang Clan, the Liu Clan, and the Fang Clan's maiden family.
If you really want to talk about relatives, your own family is not even as good as the Fang family and the Liu family.
Mrs. Zhao is a very shrewd person, she is calculating, she knows how to make trade-offs, she is definitely not just a lotus flower, just a splash.
Now that the conscription is like this, their two sons are definitely going to one of them.
Of course she couldn't bear it.
The eldest doesn't have a son, but only a daughter, so it will take at least five or six years, or even seven or eight years, right? How old will you be when you come back? How do you still have a son?
The second child is even more miserable, if he is separated here, he doesn't even have a daughter-in-law.
She couldn't let her go.
Besides, her two sons are so honest that if they leave themselves, they may be bullied to death by outsiders. She had been heartbroken for them since she was a child, and she never thought that they would leave her.
If they really leave her, what will they do?
She won't be able to sleep at home.
Therefore, the two hundred taels of silver were decided.
But as soon as she thought of taking two hundred taels of silver, Mrs. Zhao felt a pain in her flesh.
Two hundred taels, not twenty taels.
Qin Fang's dowry can't be fully occupied, and he has to spend another two hundred taels, how can he live in the future?
Don't say anything else, the second child has no daughter-in-law, so he has to marry another one, right?
Don't you have to spend money?
After thinking about it, Mrs. Zhao could only take Zhao Liang to find Su Jin and Qin Lang.
She was willing to take a step back and give Qin Fang and leave the book, but the Qin family had to help with the two hundred taels of silver, and then leave half of Qin Fang's dowry to the Zhao family.
Mrs. Zhao felt that she was already very generous, and she was already willing to give and leave the book, so the Qin family couldn't refuse to eat at all.
Mrs. Zhao didn't come here, Su Jin didn't expect that now was a good time to persecute the Zhao family, since Mrs. Zhao came to the door by herself, where could she have the final say?
Qin Fang's dowry is still all wanted, and if it has been spent, it will be converted into silver, and the Zhao family will have to compensate according to the price.
As for the book of harmony, she was willing to spend a hundred taels of silver in exchange.
If the Zhao family wants to be exempted from conscription, then pay another hundred taels themselves.
One hundred taels of silver, it is impossible for the Zhao family not to take it out.
At the beginning, Su Jin asked for compensation from the Ruan family, and Su Jin gave a hundred taels of silver tickets to Mrs. Zhao, and I didn't hear that the Zhao family bought land, built a house, or anything, and Mrs. Zhao was so picky, this silver must not have been spent.
It adds up, exactly two hundred taels.
Mrs. Zhao cried with a sad face, Su Jin bargained with her, and whispered to Qin Lang to ask him to take a few people to Zhao's house, take the dowry list, and control Qin Fang's dowry first, even if he couldn't bring it back, he would first carry all those cages to the main house in Yangliu Village, and count them against the dowry list, even if Mrs. Zhao went back to do something, it would be too late.
If you don't take this opportunity to do things in one fell swoop, there will be no such shop in this village.
Qin Lang nodded, called a few tenants, and by the way, took Wangchun with him, took a carriage and ox cart, and went straight to Yangliu Village.
So, when Mrs. Zhao's mother and son returned to the village, they almost fainted when they saw Qin Fang's dowry that had been emptied.
Mrs. Zhao howled and scolded her eldest son for being useless, how could she just let people break into the house and snatch everything from the house? Are you wood? Won't it be blocked?
The eldest son hugged his head and cried with a weak face: Stop it, it's useless, you can't stop it..,....
