Chapter 374: A Little More Food Tax
Outside the yard and in the kitchen, several aunts were busy with their own work.
Now that the dishes have been cut and washed, it is time to start cooking.
At this point, when everything is ready, start stir-frying when the meal is almost ready.
Therefore, for a short period of time, several aunts can sit in the hall and take a rest.
There was a tea pot, which was bought casually in Xia Zining Town, and the people who helped them had nothing to do but sit and make tea by themselves.
Xia Zining drank it herself, and naturally it was given to her by Situ Qingyu at that time.
Although this tea is about three taels, it is not valuable to her, but a few aunts who helped heard that it was brewed for them to rest, and a few people also felt happy.
Tea is after someone in the village went to Dr. Qianhe's house to drink it a few months ago, and everyone knows that tea is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Besides, they knew that this pot of tea was not the cheapest in town.
Although it is not the most expensive, it is also a few taels of silver, and it is medium tea.
A few aunts chatted about the harvest.
Tomorrow, the village and Chenjia Village will help at the construction site, and more than half of them will come out to help Xia Dong's family cut rice.
It is estimated that there are many people, even if it is ten or twenty acres of land, it can be completely done in two or three days.
It just so happened that everyone was also on vacation and busy with their own homes.
"Hey, this grain has been harvested and dried, and it's not all your own, and you've been busy for so long, and most of it has been given to others."
"yes, this tax... Who's not helpless. ”
"The yamen has posted notices, and this year's tax revenue will be 10% more."
"It's just that we heard about it, and then we feel that our peasant family is wronged."
"Yes, it is said that the ground near Nahe Prefecture is moving, the disaster is serious, the houses and shops of the victims over there are gone, and the food in those fields is also destroyed overnight.
"It's not that I don't want to help people, but the imperial court originally let us pay four percent of the grain tax, and one more than one percent will go out to fifty percent, and we only have half of it, and we will only have half of it in our hands, and we will have to keep it after this autumn and winter, and it will not be until next year's spring harvest that there will be another quarter of grain, which is more than half a year, and the grain output is not much, and we are already difficult to eat, and we are afraid that we will be hungry as a family."
"What's the solution?"
The words are talking about Xia Zining's new home later, and they sigh how beautiful they are.
"By the way, when do you want to move?" The house is all built.
"The owner didn't say it, and Tieshan's daughter-in-law didn't hear the owner say it."
"However, Tieshan's daughter-in-law heard from the owner that there are still things to be added to the house, and the furniture that has been ordered has not yet been delivered."
"Oh, I see, I'm going to wait for the furniture to come in before we move."
"We people in the village don't care so much about this, just make do with it, and the owner must want to make the best furniture to be satisfied."
"I can also understand that such a beautiful house, if you have money, you can't fix these old furniture in our village."
"Well, that is, if my family is rich, I will also think about making my family better."

Here, when I was preparing to stir-fry, the village bell rang.
Several aunts in the house wondered, what is the big deal in the village?
"Daughter-in-law Qingshan, why don't you and Lihua go and have a look first, you wait here."
"Okay, you'll come back and talk to us later."
At the entrance of the village, the village chief Wang Changgen stood there, looking at the people in the village who came one after another, all of them stayed in the village and did not work, and there were more women and old people.
