Chapter 161: Poor Master

Lu Yangge's illness was only allowed by Qiu to get out of bed and go out after entering Layue.

As soon as she got out of bed, the first thing Lu Yangge did was to ask her eldest sister to help her boil water, and she wanted to wash her hair and take a bath.

In the past few days in bed, she feels that people are getting rancid.

If she didn't wash it again, she would like to throw away her shell.

Qiu can't understand that Xiao Si has to take a bath every three or five days in the cold winter wax moon, just like Xiao Si can't understand that Zhuangzi's children don't take a bath in winter.

Fortunately, Qiu's people love cleanliness, and several children in the family, including Lu Quan, are clean and refreshing when they go out.

Although it is not as frequent as Lu Xiaosi to take a bath and wash his hair, the Lu family still boils hot water in the stove every few days, and the family lines up and takes turns bathing and washing their hair.

If the weather is too cold to take a bath, Qiu will also let his family and a few children wash their feet and wipe their bodies every night.

As for the hair of several children, including adults in the family, it will be washed every few days.

Qiu's love for cleanliness is well-known at the wild pier.

No one thought that Lu Xiaosi, the eldest son of the Lu family, loves cleanliness more, I heard that the eldest son of the Lu family washes his face in a basin, washes his feet in a basin, wipes his body in a basin, and bathes in a basin.

I heard that when the Lu family moved to a new house, they bought more than a dozen large and small wooden plates.

In the words of Aunt Ma, if the Lu family is as particular as Xiaosi, then this pot must be prepared in a room to stack.

In ordinary people's homes, the whole family washes their faces and shares a basin, and they can also wash their hands and vegetables.

Then the whole family washes their feet and wipes their bodies and bathes in the same basin, and when they soak their feet in winter, half a basin of hot water, several pairs of feet are stuffed.

After washing my feet, the water was a little sticky.

The most unparticular thing about the wild pier is the dog's house, and I heard that there is only one wooden basin in his house.

I don't know if his family shares a basin for washing feet, vegetables, and faces? There is also a dog who doesn't like to clean up the house, and the dog never washes her feet or wipes her body after the cold, saying that it is a firewood!

If Lu Xiaosi was allowed to live in the dog's house, facing the snotty dogs all day long, as well as his mother, who didn't care about it, she felt that she probably wanted to die again.

On the first day of the lunar month, I just had lunch, and the two poor masters entered Xiaoxinzhuang under the leadership of Murazheng.

Xiaoxinzhuang originally did not have this Zhuangzi, because the people of the wild wharf bought the land of the shopkeeper Li and lived in these households, forming a small Zhuangzi.

This wasteland was originally on the boundary of Jiangjiaba Town and Wudun Village, and when Li bought the land, he bought the land of Wudun Village and Jiangjiaba Village.

When the people of the wild wharf moved here, the village leader of Wudun Village came to the door, saying that their land was on the boundary of Wudun Village, and their Zhuangzi would be under the management of Wudun Village.

Lu Quan and the others couldn't understand this matter, since someone was in charge, whether it was under the control of the town or Wudun Village, they didn't care.

In this way, Xiaoxinzhuang became the subordinate Zhuangzi of Wudun Village.

Muramasa has been here a few times since the people from the wild dock moved, and he barely got acquainted with the big guys.

This is the second time that the two poor masters have come, the first time is to check the population of Xiaoxinzhuang and the number of acres, and by the way, inform the people of Xiaoxinzhuang that the outside has changed the dynasty, and the current court is called Dashangguo.

However, Lu Xiaosi heard Uncle Ding talk about it.

Although the Great Shang State occupied the capital, Chen Quan also claimed the king in the capital, but the old dynasty was not destroyed, the emperor did not know how many sons, with the military generals of Wenchen fled to Suzhou Mansion, and now stationed there, self-proclaimed king.

The new dynasty ruled Jiangbei, the old dynasty went to Jiangnan, the two imperial courts were opposed, and no one knew which day the east wind overwhelmed the west, or the west overwhelmed the east wind.

Although the old dynasty is still there, Jiangjiaba belongs to Jiangbei and naturally belongs to the new dynasty.

And this time, they came to urge the payment of the imperial grain.

"Deliver the emperor's grain?" Everyone didn't believe what they heard, and shouted, "We have already paid the imperial grain, why do you pay it again?" ”

The thin man squinted at the people in front of him: "Handed over?" Handed over to whom? ”

The crowd shouted.

"I'll leave it to the town."

"We'll pay it when we've finished harvesting."

"That's right, we have paid all the grain, how can there be any reason to pay the imperial grain twice?"

"Reason, you explain the reason to the master." The thin man stood in front of everyone with his sleeves crossed and his waist, and pointed at the big guy's nose and scolded menacingly, "We didn't see who you handed over the grain to, but now it's the new dynasty, have you handed over the grain to our Great Shang Dynasty?" ”

Was it handed over to the Great Shang Dynasty?

No.

But they have already paid their taxes and grain this year, and if they pay them again, will anyone still have a way to live?

Although it is said that this year's tax and grain are paid by Shopkeeper Li, but if you pay it now, do you still have to go to Yangzhou to find Shopkeeper Li to pay the tax of the Great Shang Dynasty?

But where did they go to find Shopkeeper Li, everyone moved to Yangzhou.

Besides, if you look for Shopkeeper Li, people won't admit it.

When the shopkeeper Li sold the land to you, it was still the old dynasty, and the taxes of the Great Shang Dynasty made the shopkeeper Li pay, and there was no such saying!

Thinking of the shopkeeper Li, Li Sixi's heart moved, rubbed his hands and stepped forward to explain the situation: "Two poor masters, this field was just bought after the autumn, and the grain is only ours when it is harvested." This is not the turn of the emperor's grain, we are not. Next year, next year we will deliver ......"

"Ahh

The thin poor master almost spit on Li Sixi's face with a mouthful of foam, "What you say is what, how can you do this?" I don't care who owned the land before, or when you bought it. What did you say when you came to register the population of the field last time? Say, "The land is yours." If the land belongs to you, you will have to pay the imperial grain, and if you don't pay it, go to the county jail and say it. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at everyone contemptuously, "I can tell you, we haven't settled this account with you yet when you handed over the imperial grain to the previous dynasty." Give the grain to the previous dynasty, what kind of heart do you have? Let those remnants of the defeated generals of the previous dynasty eat enough, is it good to go against our Great Shang Dynasty? ”

As he spoke, the thin man spat on the ground again, raised his foot and crushed it hard: "Phew, go dream." ”

Zhang San couldn't help but come forward flatteringly: "No, poor master, you can't say that......"

"Don't you say much? You don't even want to pay the imperial grain, do you still think about the previous dynasty, I can tell you, this year, the new emperor ascended the throne and granted amnesty to the world, and only 30 catties of grain need to be paid for one acre of land, this is the grace that His Majesty gave you. I think you're going against the sky, and you don't want to be good. ”

Saying that, he turned his head and commanded the fat cha master who came with him, "Old Qian, you go and put the document on the wall, if anyone doesn't pay the imperial grain, then go to the prison and talk to the master." ”

Qian Chaye, who came with the thin chaye, glanced at the panicked crowd with pity, pasted the document urging the imperial grain to the courtyard wall of the Lu family, and patted it hard.

posted a notice, and the two officials left in a menacing manner, ignoring this group of helpless villagers.
