No matter how enlightened Fei Yinghuan is, no matter how witty the Lou family is, they can't call the shots in the Fei family.

The father is the son, the real big thing, the old lady has the final say!

It is not filial piety to take the initiative to ask for a separation, and the parents are still alive and the family is divided.

Unfilial piety is a great sin, much more serious than corruption. If someone is impeached, he can be directly dismissed, and he can't defend himself.

Without the old lady's nod, Fei Rulan didn't want to marry Zhao Han seriously.

Then you can only secretly display the warehouse.

The mother and daughter reached a consensus, and the matter was decided.

Fei Rulan suddenly felt relaxed, like a bird with dried feathers, flapping its wings and flying high into the clouds. She knelt upright, leaned over and kowtowed, "Please give Brother Han five acres of land." ”

"You've even found out how the displaced people settled down?" Lou Shi said with a smile, "They all say that girls are outgoing, and you haven't married yet." ”

"Please call the shots!"

With a bright smile, Fei Rulan kowtowed again.

The Ming Dynasty has relevant laws, and if a displaced person has acres of land in a different place, he can go to the local government to apply for household registration.

A period when there were a large number of displaced people, such as the beginning of the succession of Emperor Chenghua. In order to solve the problem of millions of displaced people, there is no need to even show a land deed, as long as there is actual reclamation of wasteland, the government will handle the household registration for the displaced people.

Most of the wealthy slaves in the middle and late Ming Dynasty went to other places with money to buy fields, and then bribed the government to obtain household registration status. However, once his old master found out and sent the deed of sale to the governor of the prefecture and county, the new identity of this slave would be immediately invalidated.

Lou's gift of five acres of land, Zhao Han can take the title deed and go to the county government to set up his own door.

Lou took out a few documents and handed them to Fei Rulan: "This is Brother Han'er's identity deed, you can take it." ”

Fei Rulan took it with both hands, folded it up and put it in her arms.

Lou handed out a few more land deeds: "My marrying fields are all in Jiujiang, this is the land property in your father's name, and they are all donated by the neighbors when they are examined." There are only field bones, no field skins, and the rent is low, so you can take it and give it to Brother Han. I sent a slave to accompany him to bribe the master and implement the household registration of the good people. ”

Surrender means that the peasants take the initiative to give their land to the nobles and gentry, and then they become tenants themselves.

The fundamental reason for this is that after the "One Whip Law", the conscription was changed to the silver of the Ding service. As more and more people deserted from service, the money for servitude was concentrated on a small number of peasants, resulting in the amount of money that needed to be handed over every year actually exceeded the amount of land that needed to be handed over.

And the officials and the scholars can just be exempted from military service, wouldn't the two sides hit it off?

A first-class Beijing official can only be exempted from 30 stone of grain, but he can be exempted from 10,000 acres of land. It is not that 10,000 acres of land are not taxed, but that the conscription relationship attached to 10,000 acres of land can be directly exempted!

Fei Yinghuan, as a lifter, can only be exempted from two stones of grain, but he can be exempted from forced labor on 1,200 acres of land.

As a result, many peasants gave their land to Fei Yinghuan free of charge, in order to escape the heavy labor money. However, these lands cannot be taken away at will, and can only be cultivated by the original landlords, otherwise they will not be shameless and lose their reputation!

Transferred to Zhao Han ten acres of land, in fact, it doesn't matter, the government will not change the fish scale book, and those who should escape can still escape.

Fei Rulan took the deed with both hands and carefully put it in her arms.

Lou took another twenty taels of silver and advised: "The homeless people settle down, these must be enough, and the master will definitely be able to agree." Don't alarm the county, the county lord has a bigger appetite, so he has to make things difficult. ”

Fei Rulan accepted the money and kowtowed to her mother three times.

Lou said with a smile: "When these things are done, when you get married in Jiujiang, you will be given a lot of dowry fields, and you will not be hungry." ”

Fei Rulan was ashamed and happy, blushing and said, "Mother is so good." ”

Lou said with a smile: "You let your younger brother escort you and personally send the deed, Brother Han will definitely be moved, and he will hold you as a treasure in the palm of his hand in the future." ”

"Well, my daughter will go to the estuary." Fei Rulan turned around and ran.

Lou shouted: "It's almost night, can't you wait for tomorrow?" ”

"Go early and come back early." Fei Rulan said.

Lou Shi smiled and stopped: "Go again tomorrow, you are so urgent, you will be looked down upon, and I think you can't get married!" ”

Fei Rulan could only obediently go back to the room, tossing and turning all night, and couldn't sleep.

She will be eighteen years old next year, and if she is replaced by another woman, she will already be married. Such an old leftover girl, even if she is not a widow, it is difficult to find a suitable husband, and most of them can only continue to be a serious person.

In that case, why not find one you like? It doesn't matter what his background is.

Fantasizing about breaking away from the family and living a happy life in Jiujiang, Fei Rulan still smiled when she fell asleep.

Early the next morning.

Fei Rulan called the maid Xiyue and ran next door to find her younger brother: "Ruhe, come with me to Hekou Town." ”

Fei Ruhe asked, "Sister, do you know anything about Brother Han?" ”

"I know that my mother already has an idea, you can accompany me to find him." Fei Rulan said.

Fei Ruhe said happily: "That's good, wait for me to change my clothes." ”

Called Fei Chun and hung the bow and arrow on his back, Fei Ruhe said as he walked: "When I see Zhao Han, I want to learn archery skills from him, Young Master Ben has been making rapid progress recently!" ”

"Brother Han hasn't practiced arrows again, why don't you try to plow the field with the farmer?" Fei Rulan complained.

……

Peak Building, Kitchen.

"Master, there has been a shortage of peppers," said Chef Peng Zhengxiang, "and we have used up all the locally produced peppers." Now that there is a banknote customs in Ehu Town, the peppers shipped from Zhejiang have become more expensive, can you teach a few dishes that are not spicy? ”

"No problem," Zhao Han advised, "The price of peppers is getting higher and higher, and many farmers will definitely plant them next year, and there will be no shortage of them by then." ”

Peng Zhengxiang said with a smile: "I left a lot of pepper seeds, and let my nephew plant more than ten acres of them next year!" ”

Zhao Han was teaching new dishes when he suddenly heard Fei Ze say, "Brother, the young master and the eldest lady are here." ”

Zhao Han threw down the spatula, untied his apron, and followed Fei Ze upstairs.

When I walked into the private room, I heard Fei Rulan say, "You go out first." ”

Fei Chun and Xiyue left immediately, leaving only Fei Ruhe standing stupidly as a light bulb.

Fei Rulan said, "You go out too." ”

"Me?" Fei Ruhe's expression was confused.

"Yes, you go out too." Fei Rulan repeated.

Fei Ruhe was confused and muttered out of the private room.

There were only lonely men and widows left in the house, Fei Rulan's heart was pounding, and she took out the paperwork with a red face: "Please accept it." ”

Zhao Han was puzzled, took it and took a look, and his face was strange in an instant.

finally broke free from the moral shackles, and now they are favored by Lou's mother and daughter!

The body deed and field deed documents have been placed in Fei Rulan's arms for a long time, and they also carry the body fragrance and residual warmth of her daughter's family.

Can't refuse.

Fei Rulan has already let go of all her reserves and scruples, how should she deal with herself when she is rejected?

Suddenly, Zhao Han figured it out, showed a warm smile, and stared at Fei Rulan with tenderness in his eyes.

A person who is determined to rebel is not even as good as a boudoir woman in terms of emotion?

Fei Rulan didn't dare to look at him, lowered her head and turned around and said, "I'll go home first." ”

Zhao Han suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled her back into his arms, and hugged her tightly: "Do you know what I'm going to do?" ”

This was a pun, Fei Rulan didn't understand, she was ashamed and afraid: "You...... You let go of me. ”

"Let me hold for a moment." Zhao Han closed his eyes and sniffed the fragrance of the girl's hair, and the whole person became relaxed.

It's really relaxed, he thinks too much every day, his nerves are tense all the time, and he doesn't have to worry about it anymore at the moment.

Fei Rulan stiffened, let alone hugging the man, she hadn't even touched the man's hand. Feeling the body temperature on Zhao Han's body, and warm breathing in her ears, Fei Rulan's body gradually softened, as if she was stepping on cotton, and as if she was floating in the air.

The two didn't speak again, just hugged each other quietly.

"Bang bang!"

Suddenly, Fei Ruhe slammed the door: "Sister, what do you have to do, haven't you finished talking yet?" ”

"I'm leaving!"

Fei Rulan pushed Zhao Han away, turned around and fled with a red face, like a frightened deer.

Two days later, Fei Li, the chief manager of Jingxingyuan, personally accompanied Zhao Han to the county government to settle down.

The people of the Fei family must come forward, otherwise they can't handle it with twenty taels of silver. If the government does not know the details, it will not easily set up a household for the homeless, for fear of offending which big clan in the county.

When they came to the county government and spent two taels of silver to bribe Menzi, they soon met Master He of the county.

The magistrate has been replaced, and the master is naturally replaced.

The master's name is He Can, about early forty years old, and he agrees to eat and drink very appreciatively.

Zhao Han behaved very well-behaved and did not say a word during the whole process.

After three rounds of drinking, Fei Liao made his intentions clear, tore off the deed in person, and took out the title deed and said: "This Brother Han is quite appreciated by the owner's family, and he has promised to return his identity." There are also land deeds, please ask the master to make it convenient, and raise your noble hand to help set up a household. ”

He Can glanced at the paperwork twice, and suddenly asked, "But that child Fei Han who was removed?" ”

"How does Master know?" Fei Liao was surprised.

He Can said with a smile: "Tong Sheng's removal is a big deal, the old lady of your family personally came forward to invite Zhixian to eat and drink, and I was also by my side at that time." On the county school side, I also went to run, and I saw the removal with my own eyes, so it's strange that I can't remember it. ”

Fei Liao took out the silver: "Please accept it with a smile." ”

He Can glanced at it, just ate the vegetables, and stopped talking.

Sitting on the ground and starting the price, I think the silver is less.

Zhao Han could only pay out of his own pocket, make up another ten taels, and said with a smile: "Master, please take it to eat wine." ”

"It's easy to do." He Can immediately accepted the silver tael.

Full of wine and food, He Can took them back to the county government and quickly wrote the household post.

At this moment, He Can patted his head violently: "Alas, the big seal is at the county master's place, you can come and get it after the New Year." ”

Fei Liao was instantly dumbfounded and turned his head to look at Zhao Han.

Zhao Han knew in his heart that he could only take another ten taels of silver: "Master, please raise your noble hand." ”

He Can accepted the silver taels again, and explained with a smile: "The big seal is really at the county master's place, and next time I will find an opportunity to get it covered." ”

Zhao Han said: "We can wait for a few days in the county. ”

"There's no telling when." He Can is still perfunctory.

Zhao Han was furious, and wanted to stab this guy to death, he had never seen such insatiable greed!

What the market price of twenty taels can do, the price has risen to forty taels, and the money is still not satisfied.

is nothing more than knowing that Zhao Han is a child who has been removed, and he feels that there must be something else hidden. Seeing that Zhao Han was generous, he wanted to continue to ask for bribes until he found out Zhao Han's bottom line.

Zhao Han forcibly suppressed his anger and asked, "I don't know how to get the account post?" ”

"It will cost another hundred taels, and every room in the county government will be dotted." He Can said.

Where did Zhao Han get a hundred taels, and immediately spread his hands and said: "Return the silver, I won't set up a household." ”

"What silver?" He Can began to play dumb.

Fei Liao finally couldn't help it, and asked angrily: "Master He, aren't you afraid of offending the Fei family?" Zhao Han was personally brought home by Fei Juren, and Fei Juren is now also a magistrate! ”

He Can smiled: "I don't know what you're talking about. ”

Of course, this product is not afraid, Fei Yuanyi personally visited the magistrate, and erased Zhao Han's child, which clearly shows that there are contradictions within the Fei family.

Seeing that they really couldn't take out a hundred taels, He Can tried again: "Fifty taels? ”

Zhao Han didn't say anything, just glared at this person.

He Can sighed and said, "That's it, give another ten taels." You are waiting at the inn in the county seat, and it will only be a matter of a few days, and I will find an opportunity to get the big seal from the county master. ”

Zhao Han took out ten taels of silver, but did not hand it over: "Three days later, I will come to the county government to get the household post, and I will give you these ten taels at that time." ”

"Wait in peace." He Can said with a smile.

After the two of them left the county office, He Can immediately repaired a letter and called a clerk: "Take a boat to Fei's house in Goose Lake immediately, and give this letter to Mrs. Fei." ”

This black-hearted guy was extremely black-hearted, knowing that the Fei family had contradictions, and he secretly reported the news.

If Fei Yuanyi was willing to pay, he would immediately turn his face, not give Zhao Hanli an account, and swallow the money he had received.

If Fei Yuanyi was unwilling to pay, he would accept the last ten taels and give the account post to Zhao Han smoothly.

I won't help anyone, Master He only has silver in his eyes!
