Other people's houses are finishing in the field at this time, and in the past ten days, Mrs. Jiang has been walking around, watching the Li family cook in the kitchen, her heart is dripping blood, if she eats it herself, she will not feel distressed, but she will feel distressed if she eats it for others.

At this moment, two carriages came from the village, and the carriage stopped at the door of the village chief's house, the attendants got off first, and the king of Jiangyang and Cheng Lianyu got out of the car and looked around, "Why is there no guard here?" “

"The money inside is gone, it's just an empty shell, and the people are withdrawn, and seven people died inside, so that no one dares to come."

"Well, there's an adobe house over there, let's go and have a look, find a place to live"

The coachman drove the carriage to follow, followed by two entourages, the door of the adobe house was not locked, and the sound of beating wheat came from inside, Cheng Lianyu stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Is there anyone?" “

"Who" came out of a middle-aged man, bent over his waist, it seemed that he was tired, and when he looked at a few people in front of the door, although he was wearing ordinary clothes, he knew that he was not an ordinary person at a glance, "How many are?" “

"I'm the new county magistrate, I'm here for a private visit to your microservice, and I ask this brother to make it convenient and arrange a place for us to live, we will stay here for a few days"

The old man was so frightened that he almost fainted, "That, my house is not good, I'm afraid I have wronged you, there are many good conditions in the village"

"We don't go to their place, it's just you, as long as the place to live is clean" Cheng Lianyu handed him a piece of silver, "We don't pick what to eat, as long as it's clean and full."

"This, how can I accept your money, please come in" handed the silver over and made a gesture of please.

"Let you take it, we are not taking advantage of the people", so the king of Jiangyang and the county commander of Cheng lived in the family surnamed Liu, and the carriage was sent back to the county, with four retinues and two masters, living in the dilapidated adobe house.

Still sleeping on a big kang, the entourage wants to build a bunk, Jiangyang Wang waved his hand, "Forget it, don't pay attention to going out, just sleep on the kang"

But the entourage still discussed, the two of them took turns on duty for an hour at night, and the prince had martial arts, that was the prince, and his identity was there, and now it was hot, and it was okay to lay on the floor.

The Liu family is just an old lady, a son, a daughter-in-law, a grandson, the grandson has not yet married a wife, and an eldest daughter, who is already married.

It just so happens that this daughter-in-law has a good relationship with the Li family, and the two are often in contact, and it is reasonable.

King Jiangyang and Cheng County Commander put down their bodies, helped them harvest wheat during the day, beat wheat, and do some work within their ability, at first the Liu family didn't dare to say anything, but seeing that the official could do this, it seems that it is really different from the previous village chief and the county order.

In the end, the twenty families who did not sell their daughters were all called together and testified against one thing.

That is, what is written on the official road is true, it is true that Xiaojiang Village sells people, it is true that the village chief is a bully in the village, it is true that the county order is a big corrupt official who sucks people's blood, and it is true that Lord Zhang is an old cow busy, the more he listens to Cheng Lianyu, the more angry he becomes, but King Jiangyang is very calm.

"Thank you, we should have come a long time ago to let you be wronged"

"My lord, we don't have much grievance, it's just that those girls have formed a habit over the years, and they have become proud of being sold, it's just too embarrassing"

"Don't worry, if we don't leave during this time, and if we don't solve the matter of Xiaojiangcun, I will stay here all the time."

With the help of these six people, Lao Liu's land was quickly turned over, the corn was planted, the dried wheat was also dried, and it was bagged.

"Two adults, the grass people are poor, there is no return, a table of home-cooked food, a bowl of rice wine, this is the heart of our family, thank you"

"You're welcome, we've bothered you for so long, and we've heard the truth, it should be us thank you"

"Please, I'll do it first", Lao Liu was very refreshed and drank it in one go, "I don't know how adults arrange Xiaojiangcun?" “

"Tomorrow we will move to the village chief's house, and there will be a new village chief coming over when the boundary comes, rest assured, it will definitely be a good village chief, I dare to guarantee with you"

"Okay, good, we must make the former Xiaojiang Village glorious again, you don't know, they sell their daughters, and it is difficult for the daughters of our twenty families to get married" Lao Liu's face was a little unsightly, and the old lady Liu and his daughter-in-law on the side almost fell tears.

"It's okay, I invited Queen Jiang's mother's house to this village, it's a scholarly family, everyone's demeanor, and a house of etiquette, okay to manage this village?"

"Okay, good, it's best to build a school, so that they know etiquette and shame, how can they let their families sell it for the sake of eating and drinking, this idea can't be had, people are not poor, we have hands, we earn it ourselves, the flowers are steady, and the food is fragrant"

"Haha, well said, well said"

Sure enough, the next day, these six people moved to the original village chief's house, these days, Lian Yu sent craftsmen to renovate, and now it has been completed and can be occupied, and it has expanded a lot on the original foundation.

It's not that Prince Jiang wants to live, but to give it to the new village head, so as to respect the former queen's mother's family.

Near noon, several carriages drove into Xiaojiang Village, the village was busy at this time, they were all idle, watching from a distance in front of the door, and they didn't dare to go forward.

King Jiangyang and Cheng Lianyu stood in front of the gate, and an old man with white hair came down from the first car, when he saw King Jiangyang, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and King Jiangyang hurriedly helped, "Taishi doesn't need to be polite, he must be tired all the way, hurry in and rest"

A group of people came down from behind, including his son and daughter-in-law, and a group of servants followed, they gave a salute to the king of Jiangyang, and began to take people to work, and the guards kept moving things down from the car and carrying them inside.

After entering, the tea was served, and Master Jiang sat down to drink the tea, slowing down, "Lord Wang, it just so happens that the little old man has nothing to do at home, so I come back with my unsuccessful son, there is something to do, and I am not bored every day."

"Hehe, Taishi is really modest, how can you be bored, as long as you want, how many disciples are waiting for you to accept it"

"I'm older, I'm annoyed, I just want to be quiet and quiet, I know what is going on here, it's so annoying, don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me, but adults must cooperate, otherwise, I can't do it as an old man who has returned to his hometown."

"Lian Yu must follow the orders of the Taishi"

"Well, this time I took my eldest son and daughter-in-law, and the others stayed in the capital, and on the way I thought, build a school in the village first, no matter adults or children, go to the school first to learn etiquette and shame, and then read and write."

"The Taishi and the king's thoughts coincide, Lian Yu, the affairs of the school are left to you, the Taishi is too old, and he can't work too hard."

"Yes"

"Also, in addition, I need to make a decree for Lord Cheng, specially formulated here, all villagers in Xiaojiang Village are not allowed to buy and sell human beings, regardless of men and women, as long as they report it, once it is found that the situation is true, there will be no mercy."

"Oh, not really."

"In fact, it's a shock, no, the customs formed over the years can't be changed, they don't sell it openly, they sell it secretly, and they sell it in disguise, they want a dowry when they marry, and they don't give a dowry, isn't that a disguised sale?"

"What the master said is polite"

"Therefore, it is necessary to add another article, no matter whether you marry, you must obtain the consent of the parties, and if you receive the dowry, you must accompany the dowry,"

"Huh?"
