Lin Jinrong sighed heavily. But Han Gen continued: "That's not all, this autumn's taxes will not be collected in Pingzhou, but will be transferred to Taiming Mansion, and then transported to the north by Taiming Mansion." But don't want things to be converted into other money, the price of rice is only worth 50 wen per bucket, converted into 100 wen, plus 20 wen of warehouse consumption, if you don't want to send it to Taiming Mansion yourself, then add 20 wen, so that it becomes 140 wen is already nearly three times the original, and a year to levy five years of taxes, who dares to stay? Ma Zhuangtou had already shouted loudly and still couldn't keep people, and every time he woke up, he emptied a few more families. Grandma has to come up with a charter as soon as possible, otherwise this large piece of land will have to be wasted next year. ”

Lu Yi couldn't be moved, and although everyone in the Lu family was a little disappointed, they didn't feel strange. If the fame is so easy to test, there will not be a single child in the second room, and there will not be so many old scholars in the world who have studied hard all their lives but have not made anything. Lu Jianxin and Lu Jianzhong deliberately went to comfort Lu Jianli for this, but Lu Jianli also thought about it, and said bluntly: "As expected, Lu Yi started late, and he is not as talented as Erlang, let alone as hard as Erlang, and the days are still long, so he is not in a hurry." ”

Tu Shi was very disappointed, she was expecting Lu Yi to be able to win this time, so that she could also raise her eyebrows, but after getting such news, she couldn't be depressed. I heard that Lin Jinrong transferred the tea shop to the Lu family, and I felt a big pimple in my heart, but although Lin Jinrong would bring people over to take care of it every once in a while, he never said much to her, let alone gave her a chance, even if she wanted to express her dissatisfaction, she just kept the landing and quietly complained a few times.

Lin Yuzhen, in line with the principle that she is not happy and others should not think about it, is determined to toss Aunt He, Ah Rou, Xiaoxing, etc. hard by raising money for Lu Jianxin to run for office. Aunt He was virtuous and virtuous, and without waiting for her to do it, she took the initiative to send more valuable jewelry and clothing, and she didn't see the slightest grievance, not at all, but Ah Rou and Xiaoxing, who forced their faces to laugh every day. Aunt He pleased Lu Jianxin, but Lin Yuzhen became more and more suspicious that she was so indifferent because of her rich family, and the so-called all of it was an illusion, and there must be more money hidden, so she didn't mention Lu Jianxin's hidden resentment in her heart.

Lin Jinrong put all his thoughts on the sudden increase in taxes at this time. The Lu, Lin, and Wu families are official households, so naturally they don't have a big direct impact, but the tenants and ordinary people can't get by. Because this tenant has no land, no tools and no cattle, he not only has to pay half of the rent to the landlord, but also has to pay taxes according to the capitation. There are also many merchants who have nothing to rely on, and they are persecuted to the bitter endeavor.

Han Gen stood under the curtain and reported the situation outside to Lin Jinrong in a heavy tone: "The taxes are too heavy, and some tenants are already preparing to flee to other places, and there will be no one available for spring plowing next year." Originally, in addition to the normal tax, for every stone of grain paid, another two liters were to be paid for the consumption of rats and birds, and another bucket was added in addition to the additional consumption.

Then there is the Yicang tax, and Ding Kou is given to those who have fled, and it is added to other families who have not escaped, and one stone is not enough to pay for three stones, far exceeding the prescribed amount. And then there is conscription, which is simply staggering. ”

Lin Jinrong sighed heavily. But Han Gen continued: "That's not all, this autumn's taxes will not be collected in Pingzhou, but will be transferred to Taiming Mansion, and then transported to the north by Taiming Mansion." But don't want things to be converted into other money, the price of rice is only worth 50 wen per bucket, converted into 100 wen, plus 20 wen of warehouse consumption, if you don't want to send it to Taiming Mansion yourself, then add 20 wen, so that it becomes 140 wen is already nearly three times the original, and a year to levy five years of taxes, who dares to stay? Ma Zhuangtou had already shouted loudly and still couldn't keep people, and every time he woke up, he emptied a few more families. Grandma has to come up with a charter as soon as possible, otherwise this large piece of land will have to be wasted next year. ”

"It's not easy to take this charter. The general trend is inevitable, and I have no way to do it alone, and I am powerless. Lin Jinrong smiled bitterly. Who cares about this next spring? At that time, she didn't understand why there was chaos, why it had evolved from a mutiny of dozens of soldiers to what it was later, why after those people rushed into the city, they saw the rich and noble people as fierce as wolves, and the knife slashed at people without blinking their eyes, but now she understands it.

People can't live anymore, why do they work hard to farm the land, but when they die, they are displaced, they can't even eat enough, and they can't feed their children? It's a pity that she only knew. After all these years of hard work, she thought she knew a lot of things, but now she realized that there are still too many things she doesn't know, and the world is far harsher and more terrifying than she imagined. What she did was nothing more than a tiny drop of water in an arid land, and it didn't change much.

Sending Han Gen away, Lin Jinrong immediately got up to find Lu Jianxin, she suppressed her emotions and told Lu Jianxin about these things, and Lu Jianxin just replied to her lightly: "Got it." ”

Lin Jinrong couldn't help but fall silent. The world is as black as a crow, Lu Jianxin is a person who has been an official and managed a party, how did his money come from is self-evident, how could he not know? I don't know, it's just that she, the woman who has been hiding in the boudoir, will be shocking and scary when you hear it.

Lu Jianxin saw that Lin Jinrong was silent, obviously thinking about something else, so he knocked the few cases in front of him: "You don't want to reduce the rent again?" Before Lin Jinrong could answer, he warned her sharply: "Erlang's daughter-in-law! Be careful! You have so much money that you don't have a place to put it? No one's life is good, and if you take the lead in doing this, you want to force other families to hate you, Erlang, me, and the Lu family! If you make your own decisions again, don't blame me for being ruthless!

Seeing that he scolded Lin Jinrong sharply, Yi Lang was so frightened that he immediately cried, stepped forward and hugged Lin Jinrong's thighs tightly, and just shouted: "Mother! Mother! After shouting, he cried loudly: "Daddy! Daddy! ”

"What are you doing? Scare the kids! What can't be said well? Lin Yuzhen was busy playing a round on the side: "When did Ah Rong say that he wanted to reduce the rent?" Last year, I was rent-free, and now the family is going to use the money, if the land is wasted next year, what can I use to eat? Right, Ah Rong? ”

Lin Jinrong picked up Yilang and coaxed softly, unwilling to say another word to Lu Jianxin. The so-called Tao is not the same, and it is useless to say how much it is, so it is better not to say it. If all the tenants run out and the land is wasted, what will be left of the rich households? There is nothing left. She knew that objectively speaking, it was easy to offend the public when the rent was reduced, and she also knew that it would not have any effect if she reduced the rent, but she just didn't want to see Lu Jianxin's face.

Seeing that she was stubborn, Lu Jianxin sneered: "Pass on my words, the second grandmother is not allowed to go out these days, let alone pass on any rent-proof words, and the rent that should be collected cannot be less than a grain of grain!" ”

So be it. Lin Jinrong walked out silently holding Yilang.

It was late autumn, and the weather was already dark, but the sky was dark, and the sun had already slid down the horizon, and there were only a few rays of light left in the sky, but the shadows were even darker. Lu Mian gently lifted the curtain and probed into the house to take a look, but saw that the room was dark and faint, the lights were not lit, and the voices could not be heard, so he couldn't help frowning and looked at the cherries standing under the curtain.

Cherry hurriedly said: "Grandma came back from the wife's house like this, the fourth young master cried tired earlier, and fell asleep when he returned to the house, grandma was afraid of arguing with him, so he didn't pass the meal and didn't light the lamp." I don't know if the second master will come back today, but he will not be able to get home until the day after tomorrow. ”

Lu Lu waved her down and entered the house. The room was dark and gloomy, only the lantern under the porch shimmered through the window paper, and the air carried a sweet fragrance of a woman and a faint milky smell of a child, warm and fragrant. Lu Lu carefully touched the inner room according to his memory and stood in front of the bed.

He heard the faint and familiar sound of breathing coming from the tent, and couldn't help but lift the tent lightly and reach inside. The hand first touched the cold green silk, and then touched a warm face, "Ah Rong............" Lu Lu approached, pressed his somewhat cold face tightly against that face, and whispered: "You have been wronged." ”

Lin Jinrong's arms quickly wrapped around his neck, hugged his neck and cried silently, tears quickly soaking his collar. Lu Lu was a little at a loss, so he could only hug her tightly, gently patted her back like a child, and whispered, "Don't cry, I'm back." ”

Lin Jinrong leaned on his chest and choked up: "Erlang, it will definitely be messy!" It's a must! ”

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Lu Yishi had already listened to Fangzhu, Chunya, and Han Gen tell everything that had happened these days, plus what he had seen and heard on the road, he naturally had a number in his heart. Regarding Lin Jinrong's worries, he was not completely without worries, but he refused to tell Lin Jinrong any more, which increased her worries, and only smiled: "Get up first to wash your face and eat, let's talk slowly." Look, Yi Lang has woken you up. Don't scare him. ”

Lin Jinrong looked back, and saw Yi Lang sitting sideways beside her, looking up at him and his wife, his expression could not be seen clearly in the dark, and he could only see a pair of small eyes shining slightly. Lin Jinrong couldn't help blushing, "snorted", and scolded in a low voice: "This bad guy, he won't squeak when he wakes up." ”

Lu Lu chuckled, reached out to pick up Yi Lang, and said in a low voice, "He's good enough." Yi Lang's small soft body was close to him, his hands were firmly wrapped around his neck, and he shouted softly: "Daddy, you're back." ”

Lu Xuan's heart suddenly turned into a pool of spring water, put his lips on the top of Yi Lang's head and rubbed for a moment, and said softly: "Yes, Dad is back." Is Yi Lang well-behaved? After saying that, I realized that every time I saw Yilang in a short time, I asked the same sentence.

Yi Lang didn't answer, only clinging to him, and then reached out to pull Lin Jinrong, putting on a greedy look, pulling his parents and not letting go.

Lin Jinrong's heart was sour, his brain was hot, and he whispered to Lu Lu's ear: "Otherwise, let's try to send Yilang away first." I'm afraid, I can't bear to suffer my Yilang. Originally thought that she would do it alone, but now because of a hug in the dark, she suddenly felt that Lu Lu might help her, so she brought countless hopes and desires.

Lu Mian's body stiffened, and he was speechless for a long time.

Lin Jinrong was extremely disappointed, slowly slid off him, and lay back on the bed gently, determined not to count on him anymore. But I heard Lu Lu say softly: "This matter should be considered in the long run." Eat first, and I'll talk to you in detail. ”
