But there was little room for the chariots, horses, and people in front of them.

Everyone listened to it with little understanding, and when they asked the people around them, they only said that there was a quarrel ahead.

But when asked why they quarreled, no one said why.

A few people could only squeeze forward, less than ten feet away, and walked for two quarters of an hour.

Jiaren Jiayi followed behind the fourth uncle, vaguely protecting his sister.

Seeing that my sister was looking around with great interest, both of them were amused.

This little girl is really bold.

When the people finally approached the gate of the city, they heard a loud shout.

"Why don't you let us pass, they are all Tianwu people, and they have to give silver whenever they walk!"

One hundred and ten soldiers, following a tall general, blocked the city gate.

In front of the wide doorway, there is a half-human-high wooden shelf, leaving only a path for one person to pass through.

At this time, Xu was impatient to listen to the noise, so the general snorted coldly and scolded.

"Why? Just with the knife in Lao Tzu's hand? When is it, and you can't give up the money to run for your life? Then why don't you stay at home honestly and save money when you die! ”

These words were really ugly, and the people next to them were so angry that they shouted one after another.

"We are the people of Tianwu, we pay grain taxes every year, and we raise you people, is it just to stop us from surviving?"

"That's it, you are too domineering, you actually bought Lu Yin, we want to sue you!"

That will have no fear, and the laughter is even more arrogant.

"The imperial court is going south, who has time to pay attention to you untouchables!"

Li Laosi and the others frowned tightly, and they all felt that they had a bad premonition.

Li Laosi pulled an old man who wiped his tears and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter, you want to collect money when you go to the city?" ”

"Yes, five taels per person, it's almost going to kill everyone. Who has so much silver? If you don't give money, you won't let people go, how can you escape if you can't get by? ”

The old man's burden was full of despair on one side of his grandson and luggage on the other.

Li Laosi and the others were so shocked that they gasped, one person collected five taels, there were thousands of people at the gate of this city, and one toll could collect twenty or thirty thousand taels.

These people are crazy about money!

He also wanted to ask a few more questions, but he didn't want two carriages at the gate of the city to pass through with the money paid.

Someone wants to fish in troubled waters, so they rush in.

But the long knives in the hands of the soldiers were not ornaments, and the man was hacked to death almost instantly.

Flesh and blood splattered, and everyone around them was affected.

Some screamed, some fainted, some cried, and immediately the gates of the city were in chaos.

Li Laosi protected everyone and hurriedly retreated.

Jiayin didn't expect that it would be so bloody, she was so frightened that she shrunk her neck and honestly hid behind her father.

Jiaren was afraid that his sister would be frightened, so he quickly took off his coat and put it on his sister's head.

Jiayi never left his uncle and sister.

It was difficult for a few people to squeeze in, but it was extremely easy for everyone to exit.

As soon as I walked halfway back, the village chief brought someone to answer him.

They were in the camp, and they could only see the riot at the gates, but they did not know what had happened.

Finally went back to settle down, old and young asked, heard that a person needs five taels of silver to pass through the city, everyone was surprised, and then scolded angrily.

"These things that kill a thousand knives, is the old lady in the family sick waiting for money to buy medicine? It's really lacking in morality, isn't this stuck in everyone's neck asking for money? ”

"This is a thief who robbed the road, who are the officers and soldiers!"

"Why is there no one to take care of it, and we ordinary people are not allowed to live!"

Everyone scolded a lot, but it was useless.

Think about your own savings of hundreds of dollars, don't even think about going to the city alone!

Tired and tired to come here, but was stopped like this, no one is reconciled.

A woman went upstairs and the child whimpered and cried, "What can I do?" Are you waiting to die here? ”

"Mother, I don't want to die, I want to eat chicken!" The child was not sensible, so he took it in passing.

The woman was angry and distressed, and she raised her hand to beat!

"What kind of chicken you eat, your life will be gone!"

The child didn't understand what was going on, so he grinned and cried, and for a while everyone was at a loss.

Li Lao Er sighed, "Ninety-seven people, one person five taels, that is, nearly five hundred taels, we can't take it out at all, let's find another way." ”

The rest of the people also nodded, to be honest, even if they have money, they can't hand it over just to cross the city gate.

Don't eat anymore, don't live?

Wherever you settle, you have to buy a new home!

"Do you want to wait, maybe there are too many people at the city gate, and the city gate will really be washed open?" Someone proposed, but he himself smiled bitterly.

There are so many soldiers, but they are not grassy, who dares to risk their lives?

Everyone was silent and worried, and suddenly a little daughter-in-law whispered, "We don't have no money, do we?" ”

Everyone was puzzled and looked at the past.

They are all poor people, and five taels of silver is okay, but five hundred taels is impossible.

The little daughter-in-law hesitated a little, and quietly glanced at the good news in Mrs. Li's arms.

"Aunt Li's Fu Niu was one year old before, didn't she receive a lot of gold jewelry? I heard that it is so heavy that dozens of taels! After changing the silver, everyone will get together again, and it should be enough. ”

The Li family's faces all changed, and they were all as cold as ice.

They didn't know that there were still people who were worried about the Li family's background.

Jiayi was in a hurry, and was the first to shout, "That's my sister's dowry, and no one can touch it!" ”

Jiaren also said, "That's it, that's my sister's." ”

The little daughter-in-law pursed her lips and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"When is it time, you are counting on this silver to save your life? The little girl is only one year old, do you know what dowry is not dowry? Besides, there are still more than ten years before the little girl gets married, so take it out for emergency first, and then buy it when everyone earns money in the future. ”

This was so justified that for a while, Jiayin was stunned, and even suspected that she was possessed by Wu Cuihua.

The Li family was also pale, and Mrs. Li scolded at that time.

"Fuck your stinky shit! Which green onion are you, and you dare to calculate my granddaughter's dowry? Is your surname Li, our old Li family should be yours? Why do you have to listen to you when you move your mouth! With a donkey face, I really think I'm a beast! ”

The old lady is usually very reasonable, but don't involve her granddaughter, otherwise she will transform immediately.

The little daughter-in-law's face turned red when she was scolded, and she was about to speak, but Tao Hongying also spoke.

"Shut your! With a big shy face, you are really a smart person in the world. Then I still want to say, if I strip you naked and throw you at the gate of the city, the general who guards the city will be happy, and if he accepts you as a concubine, he will be able to happily let us go when the time comes! Why don't you hurry up and dedicate yourself! ”

The little daughter-in-law cried as soon as she spoke, hugging herself tightly with both hands.

"Your Li family is too bullying! Isn't it just to let you lend money to everyone to cross the city gate, if you don't agree, forget it, why do you still curse? If my family has silver, I will definitely take it out, and I will never be like yours! ”

"Hmph, you've calculated that you've arrived at our door, and we're not allowed to scold a few words. God is your own father, everyone has to get used to you. Zhao Yuru is also rare to say unpleasant words.

"You said you didn't pick the door, then the children didn't have millet to eat these days, and you obviously still have it in your burden, why don't you take it out? Our family took millet, and you let the child eat it hard? I don't bother with you, we're all fools!"

The Li family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were full of firepower, and the little daughter-in-law who scolded couldn't resist it.
