Aunt Lin came out of the house, and when she saw Hu shouting at her son like this, she said angrily, "Are you embarrassed to ask?" You want to ask you, how much money you have earned from Xiaoshan to your mother's family over the years? Every time you give you money, you can steal it to your mother's family, why should you give it to you if you want his money now? ”

Hu Shi spoke, thought for a while before he spoke: "My mother is poor, how can I bear my father and mother suffering? Mother, you have to understand me! I'm a daughter, how can I bear to see their lives like that? ”

Aunt Lin looked at her disdainfully and said, "Are you embarrassed to say that?" Don't you want to think about those people in your family, your father, mother, brother and sister-in-law, do you have a diligent one? If it's true that they are in a hurry, you say that the money will be given, but are they? One by one, they are waiting for the world to drop pies all day long, and such people have a mountain of gold in our family, which is not enough for you to subsidize. “

Hu's face was embarrassed, his mother's family was indeed not angry, but now they can't be blamed for it! "Mother, how can you say that about my father? They just have a bad life, Xiaoshan can make so much money by working with Tang Zhi'an's family now, if my father and mother can also have someone to help, their life will definitely be good. ”

"Phew, don't use my son to talk to your father and mother, you don't feel blushing yourself, before my son didn't work with the Zhi'an family, he did carpenter work, went to the town to do odd jobs, and did any work in the field, what about your father? are already grandfathers, how much work have they done? ”

Aunt Lin is really angry, doesn't this Hu Shi know the virtue of his father? It's really infuriating to dare to put her son and her father together like this.

Hu didn't expect that she would anger her mother-in-law just by saying a word, and she didn't know what to do.

The village chief had already left, and Lin Xiaoshan was not there, and the Hu family stood in the middle of the courtyard dumbfounded, and no one paid attention to her at all.

She really didn't expect that no one in this family would really pay attention to her, "What the hell is going on with you?" Is it that all of them look at me unpleasantly? ”

She shouted angrily in the yard, but unfortunately there was no one who paid attention to her, and the two children came back from outside and heard her shouting in the yard, and they were all scared to death, turned around and ran away, such a mother is really scary.

But despite Hu shouting in the courtyard, no one paid attention to her, and at last she turned around and went into the house to sleep.

Aunt Lin was busy in the kitchen, and when she heard her movements, she knew that she must have gone to sleep again, and the Hu family was also a lazy person, just like the people in their family.

After Tang Zhi'an went back, he told the village chief's family about everything, and Lin Qiu'er also felt that the Hu family was really lucky, and a person like her, if she was in someone else's house, she would have been kicked out a long time ago.

But the people of the village chief's family have always tolerated her, on the contrary, she is still so dissatisfied, sooner or later she will know how much she has done.

This matter has nothing to do with their family, they are just talking behind their backs, they are not worried about the Hu family, this person is managed by three people from the village chief's family, and she can't make any waves.

The days are slowly moving forward, Tang Zhi'an and they are still doing business every day, and now the weather has begun to heat up, this spring has passed all of a sudden, and summer is coming soon.

Lin Qiu'er's business has been changed to ice powder again, and the tofu brain is not made, and the tofu is not made, so they directly gave the recipe for tofu to Zuixianlou.

Lin Qiuxu is so good to them, and he is a brother who recognizes them, it is okay to give them this recipe, and their tofu is a little too much to take care of, so they let the tofu business out.

If they make sauce meat, they will not be able to do business for more than 20 days, and the tofu business has not been done, and many old customers have some complaints, because they have missed several times, so in the end they directly let the tofu business out.

This Lin Qiuxu and they still have a grocery store business, and after this tofu is let out, it is sold directly in their grocery store, and Lin Qiuer and they also do it, but now they basically eat it at their own home, or at most make two boards and bring it to the town, and those who often eat their tofu brains will buy some.

In the tofu workshop at home, they gave some things and a lot of things to Zuixianlou, and only some were left enough for their family.

Life is stable, their business is very good, the village people go to the town to do odd jobs, or work at home on the crops in the field, everything is peaceful, but unfortunately, a news comes to break the peace in this small mountain village.

On this day, there was news from the town that the village chief of each village was going to a meeting, and there was something to be announced, and everyone's hearts were a little panicked, what kind of news was this!

When the village chief came back at noon, his face was solemn, and the people in the village began to beat the drum in their hearts when they saw this, what happened? Why does this village chief have such an expression?

Lin Qiu'er and Tang Zhi'an also knew that the village chief was going to a meeting, but now this expression is really notifying that it is not a good thing?

After the village chief returned home, he asked Lin Xiaoshan to inform the villagers to gather at the entrance of the ancestral hall, Lin Xiaoshan looked at him and said, "Dad, what happened?" ”

The village chief waved his hand, smoking a dry cigarette and frowning, "Don't ask about this matter, go and inform the villagers!" When the time comes, you will know. ”

Seeing his father like this, Lin Xiaoshan naturally didn't ask anything more, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I know, let's go." ”

When Lin Xiaoshan informed the people in the village, everyone was asking what was going on, but unfortunately, he didn't know, so he could only let everyone go to the door of the ancestral hall.

When the people in the village heard the news, they all slowly gathered, and the village chief saw that the people were almost there, and hurriedly said: "Okay, don't talk about it, today the town mayor is looking for the village chiefs of each village to talk about one thing." ”

The people in the village were quiet, listening to what the village chief said, but they all had a bad premonition in their hearts, thinking that this was really a problem, and maybe something troublesome was coming again!

The village chief looked at the people below and sighed and said, "The prince has an order, this treasury is empty, so this year you have to pay a poll tax, regardless of the size of each family, according to the head, one or two silver per person." ”

After saying this, the people in the village were like blowing up, "Why do you collect money again?" ”

"Is this still not going to let people live? We still have to collect money, where do we get the money? ”

"This prince eats and drinks spicy food, wears gold and silver, and now he actually wants our money, is he too black-hearted, he is not a good prince at all."

When Lin Qiu'er and Tang Zhi'an heard the words of the villagers, they felt a little strange in their hearts, in fact, they hadn't collected the poll tax for three years, and if they collected it before, it was only collected for adults, not for children.

But this time, the children also had to pay it, and it was ordered by the prince, according to Lin Qiuxu, now in the court, the limelight of the four princes is very strong, and they are all going to overshadow the prince, so how could the prince give such an order?

Isn't this a clear indication that you want to give your opponent a handle? I believe that the person who can sit on the throne of the crown prince must have a very clear mind, so this matter must not have been done by him, but who else dares to release such news on the orders of the prince?

The village chief looked at the people below and said, "Don't talk about the prince here, if it spreads, no one will be able to protect you, do you know?" ”

The people of the village have lost their minds, "Why can't you say it?" This is obviously the prince's fault, he is so rich, why do he want our money? ”

"That's it, it's too much, it's just the crown prince like this now, if he inherits the throne in the future, will he be a faint monarch, and what if he asks us for money all day long?"

When the village chief heard this, his face changed completely, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Is this something we can say? Do you want to kill everyone in the village? ”

The man stopped talking, but his face was still full of anger, he just thought that this prince was not good!

Seeing the scene in front of her, Lin Qiu'er seemed to understand something, so could the person behind it be this purpose, right? If the whole country is disgusted with the crown prince, will the crown prince be able to sit on the throne?

Before becoming the emperor, he lost the hearts of the people, and such an emperor believed that it would not take long to be directly robbed of the throne, Lin Qiu'er frowned and thought.

The village chief looked at the people below and said, "Okay, don't gather around here, go back quickly!" Then he left.

Tang Zhi'an and Lin Qiu'er glanced at each other and went back, and when they arrived at home, Tang Zhi'an looked at her and said, "Qiu'er, do you think this matter is really an order from the prince?" ”

Lin Qiu'er shook her head and said, "I don't know, I think we should go and talk to the eldest brother about this matter!" After all, he is from the prince's side. ”

Tang Zhian thought for a while and said, "Okay, then let's hurry over!" ”

The husband and wife closed the door and sat on the family's ox cart and went directly to the town again, and after arriving in the town, they hurried to the drunken fairy building.

"Shopkeeper Lin, is my eldest brother here?" Lin Qiu'er asked.

Shopkeeper Lin nodded and said, "Yes, the owner is upstairs." After speaking, he led the way in front and took Tang Zhian and Lin Qiu'er upstairs.

Lin Qiuxu was reading the secret letter in the house, and Lin Qiuzhi was watching at the door, she had something to tell her eldest brother, but she didn't dare to go in.

Hearing movement at the top of the stairs, he quickly looked up, "Why are you here?" ”

Lin Qiuzhi really felt that these two people were a little shameless, knowing the identity of their eldest brother, they still came up one by one, obviously wanting to take advantage, but the eldest brother was coaxed by them, and he didn't believe what she said at all!

Lin Qiu'er glanced at her and didn't speak, anyway, in the eyes of Lin Qiuzhi, the eldest lady, they were just mud legs in the countryside, and they didn't deserve to talk to her at all.

Shopkeeper Lin looked at Lin Qiuzhi and said, "Brother Tang and his younger siblings are here to find the owner. ”

Lin Qiuzhi's eyes immediately shot at them like cold arrows, "What are you looking for my eldest brother?" Do you want to take advantage of it again? ”
