Chapter 243: The General's Tomb
At this time, Hujia Village was another lively.
Village Chief Hu gathered a few young adults to take people to explore the waterfall in the back mountain.
The food in the village has been taken care of, the land that should be turned over has been turned over, and we are waiting for two more rains to plant the seeds of the new season.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but after planting spring grain, the fertility of their land becomes more and more abundant.
In fact, the land in Hujia Village as a whole is not enough, every household needs to be less, and the quality of grain is not good.
Every year, the grain grown is less than in other villages, and their village chief has a tendon, but every child who has reached the age of seven always has to go to the household registration.
As a result, they also paid more taxes, and as time went on, their Hujia Village became poorer and poorer.
Some people have also expressed their dissatisfaction and asked the village chief not to report so many people and plant more land for them.
Village Chief Hu said no.
"Our ancestors are generals, and they are the most upright, how can they be cheating? Isn't this sorry for the ancestors! β
Even Mrs. Hu and the others are very supportive of Village Chief Hu's decision, which is also a rule that has been adhered to by village chiefs for generations.
Everyone was helpless, but the ancestral rules were really not easy to abolish, and this was not a bad habit, so they had to endure it.
Although they are the poorest village in the town, they are not as poor as the old Wang family.
Lao Wang's family didn't complain, they didn't make a fuss, every child was registered, and they paid a large amount of poll tax every year, what else did they say?
However, the only good thing is that Lord Qin sent to deliver relief food and let Shanyang Village compensate for the money, and they got a lot of money because their household registration was relatively perfect.
Two days ago, they received all the compensation from Shanyang Village, which was a complete surprise.
They had heard that Shanyang Village had been driven away directly, and the original village had been enclosed in an ominous forbidden place.
I thought that the money owed to them by Shanyang Village would not be repaid, but I didn't expect that the money would arrive at the same time as the harvest.
At the beginning, those who were injured were each given at least five taels of silver.
In addition, Village Chief Hu divided the other compensation amounts equally, as a cost for everyone to be shocked, and everyone got money according to their household registration, even children as young as one or two years old.
As well as the forced labor that Shanyang Village offsets for them, according to the price, there are two taels of silver at a time, although they don't have it in their hands, they don't have to send people out, it's very cost-effective.
and the spring tax that is no longer payable.
All the benefits are completely picked up for nothing, how can everyone not be happy?
"Maybe it was the divine rain at the beginning of the year that made our field more fertile. Plant the second crop in autumn, don't plant so dense when planting, half of the land is used to raise, the other half is used to plant, and next year it will alternate again, and the land fertilizer will be slowly raised. "Now that we have enough food, don't plant the land too hard." β
In the past, they would sow seeds in spring and autumn, not because of hard work, but because if they didn't grow food, they would be even more insufficient, and they would be tired and tired every day, and eventually they would have to go hungry for a while.
Now, it's completely different.
Everyone was beaming.
When they heard about it again, Ayu and the others seemed to have found the general's tomb behind the mountain, and the people in the village only felt lucky.
This is definitely the Fury brought by the Fu Doll!
The harvest season is the most grateful moment in everyone's hearts, and they are energetic in everything.
As soon as they heard that the village chief was going to organize people to go to the back of the mountain to see, the others couldn't bear it anymore and all followed.
The mountain road for several miles is smooth and flat.
When they arrived at the waterfall, several young people climbed directly down the waterfall to the stone without waiting for the greeting of Village Chief Hu.
Soon, they discovered the gap in the middle of the waterfall.
A young man ran out wet and shouted in surprise: "Village chief! There's a tomb here, such a big tomb! β
The burial chamber hidden behind the waterfall is very rich, and on the outside is a tombstone with some birth and death years and deeds, and a set of armor on the outside.
It's just that the words on the tombstone are not recognized by young people.
The most literate person in the village is Mrs. Hu, but Mrs. Hu has a handful of old bones, and it is impossible to climb the waterfall again.
Once he climbed, he was afraid that he would be able to lie directly in the tomb.
Everyone looked at each other.
Aunt Hu's third son said at this time: "I can write a little, I can't recognize it, let me go in and trace out the words inside." β
Aunt Hu's third son has been running away all the year round, and when he came back this time, he was supposed to leave, but when he saw such a bumper harvest of food at home, he naturally stayed in the village to help.
Later, after the harvest, Aunt Hu thought that she had once made the old Wang family difficult because of her nonsense.
I left my third son at home, and I wanted to spend a few months brainwashing him first, so that he would know how to help hide the news outside, and then let people out.
The third son's name is Hu Zhengnian, and he is a very energetic young man.
He immediately ran back to the village, asked Mrs. Hu for a pen and paper, sealed the pen and paper into a bamboo tube, and then came back to drill into the waterfall.
After he traced out the words inside, Old Lady Hu read the content, but his face changed greatly.
"Thisβit's really the general's tomb!"
The ancestors of Hujia Village have produced great generals, which is a matter of oral tradition among the older generation, but it has never been confirmed.
Now, living evidence is in front of you.
The tomb behind the waterfall is very well preserved, and they can't bear to disturb the ancestors, so they only take out the armor inside.
Unexpectedly, after removing the rust on the outside of the armor, I saw several large characters engraved inside.
[Snow falls on Furui, this road is prosperous]
When the people heard these words, they were completely confused and did not understand what they meant.
Mrs. Hu: "!! β
Maybe that Chang is the Chang of Dachang Country.
I don't know if that's what he thinks.
But if this is the case, the matter will be great.
Village Chief Hu saw that Mrs. Hu's face was wrong, so he sent everyone away, and after going back, he asked everyone to prepare to make a general shrine.
In the future, he worshiped the general in the village.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about this, and even felt that they could survive many disasters this time, and perhaps they also had the blessing of the great general's heroic spirit.
When everyone dispersed, Mrs. Hu gathered the respected old people in the village again.
"Perhaps, Ayu's visit to our village is not accidental."
[Snow falls on Furui, this road is prosperous]
When it snows, it rains down, so if you choose the right path, you can prosper.
After Mrs. Hu roughly interpreted those eight words, she only said this sentence.
Clan elders, you look at me, I look at you, but I was a little confused for a while.
But Village Chief Hu said: "Then do you want to tell the old Wang family about this?" β
"I have to say it." Old lady Hu said, "Both the pillar and the pillar daughter-in-law must be notified, especially the pillar daughter-in-law." β
In the eyes of Mrs. Hu, the wisest person in the old Wang family is not the pillar, nor Wang Chuangui, but the daughter-in-law of the pillar.
At this time, Xiao Ayu, who everyone was worried about, encountered a crisis.
