Chapter 197, every grain is hard, continue to eat

In the west of the center of Shenxing County, a wealthy mansion with three entrances and three exits looks particularly deserted.

The mansion is issued by the yamen, and it is an official mansion specially prepared for the main tax pen, but because there are too few Yulu, and he has no courage to reach out in terms of fat, the main tax Peng Meng Xiuya can't afford to buy a subordinate concubine, and the courtyard with three entrances and three exits only lives in his family of six.

There is an old mother Chen, a wife, a concubine Pingle who married when he was young, and two sons who are not successful.

The two sons resented his clean sleeves, so that the family could not live a good life by eating chaff and drinking, but no one knew that after seeing the pitiful end of the previous lord Shui Peng, he no longer dared to stretch out his hand.

It doesn't matter if he dies, what about the elderly mother and his wife?

What about the two sons who are not successful, his son has no ability, is he going to starve to death on the streets?

So he must have a clean breeze on his sleeves, he must live and live longer, and after sending his mother to the end, he must also provide for his two sons who are not successful......

"Dad, your cultivation has improved again, why don't you get a little bit of it, and buy a pen or something. ”

"Yes, Dad, you are a dignified two-hearted person, it's too embarrassing to use carving. ”

At dinner in the morning, the two sons were routinely instigated.

Then, the two sons stared at the coarse cloth-covered table, and their usual expressions of disgust came out.

It's a coarse porridge with chaff again, with at most half a plate of sunflowers, and it is too difficult to raise a family of six with my father's little money.

Forget it, in order not to starve, you have to eat if you don't want to.

The eldest son lifted the coarse cloth, even if it was not a device, fortunately he still knew how to be filial, and he had to hand a bowl to his grandmother first, but the coarse cloth was lifted, and a fragrance immediately rushed into the nose, and the stomach that had not been oily for a long time was even more squirming.

"Gollum!"

The stomach screamed frantically, and Meng Xiuya's eldest son couldn't care about it at all, staring at a few bowls of oily and seductive big meat and laughing wildly: "Dad, Dad, you are our brother's father, you finally got the hang of it, tell me, how much money you caught!"

Otherwise, one? No, no, no, no, Daddy finally reached out, how could he only take one or two gold cakes, at least ......?"

Meng Xiuya's eldest son and youngest son glanced at each other, drooled in unison, stretched out a palm, and laughed: "At least five gold cakes!

"Son!" Meng Xiuya's old mother also cried out.

She knew what her son thought, so she never persuaded her, but she couldn't live this hard life, she didn't see meat for half a year, and even during the New Year, she couldn't eat the fragrant meat between her teeth.

His wife and concubine Pingle also smiled, especially the concubine Pingle, who laughed and cried.

She admired Meng Xiuya's elegance when she was young and admired Meng Xiuya's talent, so she made Meng Xiuya a concubine, and only hoped that Meng Xiuya would be an official and an official...... Now the official is done, but this day.

The bitterness is sweet, the bitterness is sweet, and the husband is finally enlightened!

Faced with the sudden change in the attitude of the family, Meng Xiuya's face twitched,

Meng Xiuya's eyes were red:

"Bah!" he shouted, "Do you think I've been the villain who fills your pockets!"

Angry, angry, the old lady doesn't give face.

After doing it for so many years, although the days are hard, Meng Xiuya has really gained a lot of benefits.

Not to mention anything else, the willingness of all beings is crazy, with his qualifications, he was originally at most a one-dare lifter, but now he is a two-guts lifter, and he can try to impact the three-dare lifter in the near future. It is said that habit is the most terrible, he is used to the breeze on his sleeves, and no one can say that he is full of private pockets!

Meng Xiuya said angrily: "It's Su Ziang, who was slandered in Zhenfeifang City, and the sinner was fined sixty five rattan flogging, and was fined 800 gold cakes.

People said that this is happy money for all the people in our tax yamen, and I ...... it."

Syllable!

Meng Xiuya raised her head high, her long gray hair drooped into her collar, and she said proudly: "Master, I have a clean breeze on my sleeves, of course, I can't take more than the tax collectors, but the tax collectors respect the lord and me, so I have to share more...... A golden ticket of one hundred gold, take it, and subsidize the family!"

With that, Meng Xiuya strode out of the dining house in a chic manner.

Raise your eyebrows, raise your eyebrows, he Meng Xiuya, finally have the day to smash people's faces with golden tickets!

Everyone knows that he Meng Xiuya has a clean sleeve and is a first-class good official, but who knows the hardships of a good official?

A good official has to eat bran and drink thin, and a good official has to make his family complain, and a good official has to ...... No matter, he's comfortable now!

"My lord, can you have a comfortable breakfast?" the tax collector came to visit again.

These days, Bai Ze will visit on time in front of the Yamen every morning, Meng Xiuya knows Bai Ze's intention, and he also promised not to collect the fire consumption tax under Su Ang's rule, but he will not agree to other things.

Bai Ze wanted him to help Su Ang gain a firm foothold, but as a tax collector, he didn't want to meddle in the affairs of other yamen.

Today is different!

Meng Xiuya entered the inner hall with Baize, took a sip of white tea, which was boiled water, and asked with a smile, "How is the Su family's side?"

"I don't know, but when I think about it, the situation is getting more and more urgent. ”

Bai Ze said with a bitter face: "It's just Guiping Township, you know, Guiping Township is where the Yamen is located, and there is nothing wrong, but if there is Lexiang, Brother Su can't take care of it, then the Zhao family is the top township-level hero, there are four top heroes, maybe there are many powerful people outside who have interests with them, and ......"

Bai Ze paused for a moment, and said with a more bitter face: "My colleague just looked for me and said that the township wanderer Feng Fuji had actually gone to Dongtu County a few days ago, and Feng Fuji had not entered our county seat, so the soldiers guarding the city did not find it, if it weren't for my colleague Chen who felt that something was wrong and went out of the city to investigate, I didn't know that Feng Fuji had passed."

The subordinates were afraid of the wind and arrived in Youle Township, and Brother Su was even more passive. ”

"Then what do you want to do?" Meng Xiuya frowned and took another sip of white tea.

"It's still up to you, my lord. ”

Bai Ze knelt down on one knee and pleaded earnestly.

Although Meng Xiuya is only a master tax collector, Meng Xiuya's reputation for honesty has really won the respect of many officials, not to mention in Shenxing County, even in the subordinate Dongtu County, there are many friends of Meng Xiuya.

Bai Ze wanted Meng Xiuya to open his mouth and let the officials of Dongtu County take care of it, or even take action directly......

"Well, there's no need to bother others. ”

Meng Xiuya thought for a moment, and suddenly took the case: "The official originally thought that helping the Su family would ruin the official's reputation, but at this time, ...... Let's go, this official should sit up straight, afraid that someone else will chew his tongue and tongue! Bai Zhi, you and the Su family's descendants should be more diligent in their correspondence, if he can't stand it, this official will personally help him stabilize the overall situation!"

"Bow and thank you!" Bai Ze was overjoyed.

"No thanks. ”

Meng Xiuya sat back again, continued to sip his remaining half a cup of boiled water, and sighed for a long time: "It's just that there is a lot of help from the right, and little help from the unjust, this Su family is a good boy." ”

He looked at the hundreds, which was enough to think of the scene when Su Ang divided the gold that day.

At that time, where could Su Jiazi have thought that a mere tax collector could pass through him, the main tax collector......

The Su family is really bold and righteous,

Such a good friend must be made.

............

At this time, Su Ang was also thinking about Meng Xiuya's side.

Bai Ze has already sent a letter to him, and he is constantly helping him ask for help, he used to think that it was nothing, and he gave Bai Ze a penny, but he just felt that Bai Ze was a friend worth making.

But now that I think about it, it seems that I still have to find a helper.

Because at this time, he no longer planned to leave any face for the Zhao family.

"Eat, who just said that as a servant, you should cherish food?" asked Su Ang with a smile.

"It's a subordinate. ”

Chen Xiao subconsciously replied, and suddenly saw a pair of cold eyes on Su Ang's smiling face, and replied tremblingly: "It's the subordinates, the subordinates continue to eat, and they will definitely not dare to waste food!"

Seeing that Chen Xiaozhi was trying to stuff food into his stomach, Li Yue of Xiangshi Zheng also hurriedly followed suit, they were all Wenjie, but they couldn't eat so much, so they asked Wang Zheng for help.

Wang Zheng had already begun to grit his teeth, he and the Zhao family partnered without giving face, facing Su Ang...... Well, he had to endure it, but everyone was gone, so Wang Zheng sneered and stuffed his mouth, and Gollum swallowed it in one gulp.

He is Ren Xia, driven by demon breath, afraid that he will not be able to eat?

Joke!

"Well, it's delicious, thank you for your reward. Chen Xiaoyi was eating, and he was lazy and patted Su Ang's sycophants.

Li Yue was much more sincere, chewing more if he couldn't eat, and he also showed a smile to Su Ang.

It was Wang Zheng, who stared at Su Ang when he ate, as if he was gobbling up Su Ang's bones instead of food. Okay, you let Lao Tzu eat, Lao Tzu is a big-bellied Ren Xia, and you are afraid that you won't be able to eat it? Lao Tzu see how you can get back face today!

He laughed, and the last pot of mutton was left, so he simply picked it up and poured it into his mouth, and finally threw the pot on the ground, stomped his feet and shouted: "It's over!

"Oh, you're done?" said Suang, still taking a sip of the wine.

At this time, he put down the wine cup and looked at the tables of the thirty soldiers under his command: "Do you still have food?"

"Tell your lord, the inferior people have shallow stomachs and are full, but the humble ones feel that a few officials will definitely not waste food!"

Luo Sheng laughed back on behalf of the soldiers.

Su Ang felt that Luo Sheng was still as clever as ever.

He pointed to the food on those tables and said: "So, very good, the township Tiandian, the township and the city, and the township supervisor, the three officials will continue, the officials are the example of the people, and you must not waste food." ”

"Knowable......

At noon on hoeing day, sweat drops into the soil;

Who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work......"
