Chapter Seventy-Six: It's Not Easy to Be a Man It's Hard to Be a Cow
Hua Cry finished talking about her bad ambitions, and looked at Ziyu who was excited, not knowing whether to be happy or to ask for comfort.
"Yin'er's idea is very good, as for the details, don't worry, you can find a way to solve it!" Ziyu was really comforted and cried.
"I know you're comforting me, and you're good at everything I do, Ziyu, can't you tell the truth? Hum! Hua weeping pouted, sulking at herself.
"Yin'er thought wrong, Ziyu really didn't say this to comfort you, you see, the terraced fields and tea mountains mentioned here are very useful, reclamation can start from this winter, as long as the details of this plan are sorted out, it can be implemented simultaneously, so that in the spring of next year, maybe there will be farmers who can plough their fields, and at the slowest in the year after tomorrow, all the people who open up the wasteland will have fields, no matter how much, there is always land to cultivate, and there is no need to rent the fields of dignitaries and dignitaries, what a good thing!" Ziyu seems to have begun to write silently in her heart that she will see the happy scenes on the faces of the farmers in the future.
"I just don't understand, how can there be so many more peasant households in the townships and pavilions of Kawaguchi County, according to past records, there are no more than 8,000 households in the entire Kawaguchi County, more than 3,000 households in the city, and at most three or four thousand households in the countryside. There are more than 8,000 households in the countryside, and there are more than 10,000 households in the entire county. Oh my God, people don't have so much population in Shangxian County, the key is that there are so many people and they are still so poor! ”
"Huh! This household registration record, has been recorded three years ago, after the previous county order was transferred, Kawaguchi County did not even have a county order, itself in recent years The population growth of the people is really normal, and there are constantly displaced people from Dongping Country to settle down, and they will be registered for a long time, which is easy to govern, and now, the number of household registrations in Kawaguchi County registered with the imperial court may still be four or five years ago, so Yin'er does not need to feel weird. ”
"Then tell me, where are the more than 3,000 cows and more than 9,000 quintals of rice seeds?"
"Yin'er, don't be so worried, you can't eat a big fat man in one bite, we can divide it into a part first, select a few township pavilions for trial, continue to cultivate the wasteland, and those who have cattle and grain will be cultivated first, leaving a part of the tenants who will not quit the tenants, as long as they wait for another year, they will all be shared."
Wait another year? How many years can she wait? Even if this plan is implemented perfectly, it will take a transition period of two or three or even three or four years to see the effect, if it can't make a sensation in one fell swoop, it won't be able to attract the attention of the court, and Ziyu's official position will be slim, although she doesn't know when she can be promoted to the county guard, but with the strength of political achievements, she can have the confidence to speak, even if there are people in the court, you have to have merit to please, right? What's more, Ziyu Chaozhong has no one to recommend him, so if this plan can't be carried out smoothly now, it will be in vain, not to mention the delay, she has no second three or four years to squander. "A year? Ziyu, do you know that the 1,000 cows I originally expected are already the limit, and the silver used to buy cattle and grow grain is to count all the valuable things in the Nanmu boxes you brought from Ningyang City, so that you can barely count them, and you have to find a way to make up for them when the time comes, and now, this thousand cows is a fraction! After dividing it, the rest of the farmers who don't have cattle will borrow from those who have them, so that without a single spring plough, the cattle will die of exhaustion! You know, I grew up in the countryside, a cow to a family busy spring ploughing, have to be tired to the skin and bones, three households and a cow, is already a helpless move, now less sixty percent, my heart will hurt to death, and, what should I do if the cow is pregnant? How else do you plow the fields? ”
Hua Wai thought, what does it mean to be a cow and a horse? That's what it means to be a cow and a horse! It's not easy to be a man, but is it easy to be a cow?
"Well, what Yin'er said is reasonable, Ziyu has never cultivated the fields, and he really knows very little about these, but we can implement it in a few township pavilions first, try the effect, and buy us some time, if the various taxes in this city are caught in the coming year, maybe we can solve the urgent need."
"Didn't you say that those are the business of big people, and they can't be easily moved?"
"After all, I have to move, I can't Ye Hanlin become the parent official of this county, don't do something for the people, and make a special trip to mess around!"
Hua Wei and Zi Yu discussed and argued in the house for a whole half a day, and only stopped at noon when An came to ask for instructions, and Zi Yu asked An to send someone to bring the food of the two of them into Hua Wei's house.
An's respectfully withdrew to the back kitchen arrangement.
Ziyu is still satisfied with An's recent performance, seeing that she is always crying around the flowers, serving the front and the back, and being a dignified wife, she can do so much, so she found that An's is actually quite good.
An quickly brought the meal with the servant and set it up, and then retreated without a word, without a word of complaint.
Wang and Tang, who were standing in the backyard, saw An come out, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask long and short questions, they really didn't understand why An suddenly bowed to Hua Cry and made himself like a slave to serve Hua Cry.
"Sister, didn't I say you, my sister is a dignified county lady, saddle a saddled horse before and after a cheap maid, is this in line with the identity?" The Tang family looked down on An's practice very much, and he had long wanted to say that he didn't dare to be a leading bird when he was alone, but today he had to pull the Wang family together to dare to say the disdain in his heart.
"Sister Tang, is this talking to me, the county lady?" The An clan was still bowing his eyebrows in front of Hua Cry just now, but at this moment, the majesty in front of the Tang clan and the Wang clan is back.
"Sister, aren't I fighting for you?" Tang was not convinced.
"Presumptuous, dare to scold Mrs. Ben for not even being as good as a slave, when did you step on Mrs. Ben's head?" An was angry at Tang.
"Sister, just let me say the wrong thing, but what I said is also true, even my sister, the lady of the main house, is called by the current people, how can the concubine have a bright future? My sister doesn't think about her identity, she has to think about me and Sister Wang! Tang glanced at Wang as he spoke, Wang lowered his head and did not speak, and the angry Tang only stomped his feet.
"According to what you say, or has I, the lady of the main house, lowered the status of your concubine? What right do you have to be arrogant in front of this lady! Come! Give me a slap! An Shi gave an order, and immediately came over with two mothers-in-law.
One person pressed Tang's, and the other person used the strength of his whole body to work extremely hard with his palm.
Before Tang could react, he was dazzled by a few big mouths, and he didn't even care about justifying.
Wang's frightened embroidered handkerchief fell to the ground, and hurriedly knelt down for An's: "Sister, please let Sister Tang go, her mouth has never been a door, she is really unintentional, and my sister's subordinates are merciful." ”
Wang really didn't expect that An and they have always stood on the opposite side of Hua Qi, Hua Qi is their common enemy, and now, An is actually fighting Tang for Hua Qi, which makes her really hard to believe, if Hua Qi wants to climb it, this is understandable, but Tang is right, Hua Qi is nothing, she An is a dignified county lady here, can she use to climb an outsider?
"Keep giving me a palm! Fight until she knows it's wrong! An ignored Wang's plea, ordered his mother-in-law to turn around and leave, and went back to his own room.
As soon as An's left, Wang hurriedly got up and pushed away the two mothers-in-law, The mother-in-law felt that Wang was also a master, and she didn't want to offend people more, so the two looked at each other and left silently.
Tang Shi has been beaten, his face is instantly red and swollen like a pig's head, the corners of his mouth are bleeding, and his mouth is swollen and slightly open and closed.
Wang looked at Tang's miserable appearance, and he was also afraid in his heart, if he offended anyone one day, it was estimated that there would be no good fruit to eat.
helped the stunned Tang to get up, carefully returned to the house, and called the maid to bring a clammy and cold linen cloth and pasted it on Tang's face: "Sister Tang, why do you bother to fight with her?" We are in this family, and she is a sister if it sounds good, but if it is not good, she is a cheap concubine, she is happy, so we can do whatever we want, you see her, she is a person for the Hua family, can you feel comfortable? Since you know that she is uncomfortable, you still provoke her, today she beat you can be regarded as the beginning, and I may hit me in the face one day in the future, how will I live in the future! ”
"Wow......!" Tang came back to his senses at this time and cried incessantly.
"I know my sister is wronged, don't be angry, it's not worth crying!" Wang had no choice but to be comforted.
"Uh......h Hum! Ann's! I remember her, don't think this is the end of it! She herself is willing to be a cow and a horse for a cheap maid, and even we are low, so isn't Hua Crying even more proud? Tang cried while covering his swollen face and said slurred.
"Sister Tang, you can just say this to me, but don't go out and say it, Sister Ruo'an knows about dealing with you, I can't help you, and my husband has never existed with us, and he will definitely not care about these trivial matters, what will you do then!" The Wang family understands very well in his heart, Ziyu Tie will not help any of the three of them, if the three of them fight, maybe they will be driven out together, alas, saying that An's is a cow and a horse, and he feels that he is not as good as a cow and a horse!
"Sister Wang, are you planning to stand on An's side? Don't forget, she is the main house, different from our identity, she has always looked down on us, you don't sympathize with me, but also help her say good things, besides, is it my fault today? Obviously, it was her An family who was angry with me, Sister Wang had to take it easy, don't want to end up with me one day! Tang was very uncomfortable with Wang's good old man's temperament, and gave Wang a blank look.
"Sister Tang, you can't say that, no matter how I have been with your sister for so many years, you should also understand me, I'm worried that you will make too much trouble, don't be entangled anymore, speaking of which, we and Sister An should be sympathetic to each other, you and I don't just mess with her, more is better than less, do you say yes?" Wang was a little embarrassed by Tang's sarcasm, saying that it was not right to say anything, and kindly comforted her and treated her as a donkey's liver and lungs, thinking that it was really difficult to be a man.
