The government sent me three ladies 1
[Host, do you want to use the wish now?] 】
"Can I keep it for now?"
[Of course, do you want to continue the mission?] 】
Yunfei nodded, "Let's go with a hundred points from the balance, and buy whatever you want." ”
For the rest, he doesn't seem to lack anything for the time being, the expensive ones can't be replaced, and the cheap ones are too chicken.
Just keep it for now.
With this wish opportunity, it is equivalent to winning a gold medal for avoiding death.
Wait until one day she gets tired of it, and then use it.
…………
At the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, there is no Bai Suzhen, but there is Bai Yongming.
Ancient Plane.
Another overhead dynasty, an unknown planet, an unknown continent.
Because the people here don't know that there is a heaven outside the sky, they don't feel the need to name the continent to distinguish it.
On this continent, there are two major dynasties.
And then there are some small neighboring countries, and there are often frictions between small countries, and there are constant small conflicts, and it is not uncommon for them to be replaced or merged overnight.
Qingcheng is located in a small country called Ningguo in the south, which belonged to the Southern Chu Imperial Court.
That is, a vassal state of the Southern Chu State, one of the two major imperial dynasties.
At present, there are many fights between the two dynasties, so on the side of the imperial court, in order to collect money, a new law has been issued, that is, the poll tax.
Farmers, every quarter, one person has to pay 500 wen.
200 for children under 10 years old, 300 for those over 60 years old.
However, a strong laborer, who goes to the dock every day to move goods, is only paid 30 yuan.
It is even more difficult for women, most of whom can only do laundry work or do some female celebrity.
Ten copper plates a day is unknown.
Those who have meritorious fame are exempt from tax for themselves, and their family members with the same household registration are halved, and slaves are taxed at the same rate.
The merchants were paid a tael of silver per quarter, and the children and servants were five hundred taels, and the old man was also worth one tael.
In this case, everyone must think, if the man doesn't marry a wife and have children, won't he be able to barely support himself?
Indeed, there are quite a few people who think so.
But...... There is also a law in Nanchu.
Unmarried women who have reached the age of fifteen will be taken away by the government and then go from village to village.
It is said to be a mutual view, but in fact it is distribution.
Let the man choose, and those who are suitable for marriage and do not marry at least one of them, and then marry or whatever, and the government does not care.
If there is no new child in the family for three years, you have to force another election.
And the women who are not selected will be selected again the next year, until the eighteenth generation, if there is still no one to choose, exile the border, let the soldiers stationed there choose.
In this era of labor supremacy, it can be said that women have no place at all.
None of the cows are worth much.
The women in Baijia Village, the same, are already the happiest if they don't get beaten or kicked.
Every day, they wake up earlier than chickens, sleep later than dogs, work more than cows, and eat the least in the whole family.
The original owner, Bai Yongming, and his grandfather were the previous village chiefs, so the family was quite prosperous.
He is the eldest grandson, and he has been pinned on high hopes since he was a child, and the whole family has provided some books for him to read.
In this environment, he can still go to study in the town, as you can imagine, it sucks the blood of the whole family!
His father is the eldest son, an authentic farmer, and the second and third uncles live in the old mansion together.
But since his grandmother died, his father went up the mountain and was buried in a landslide, and the family was divided.
The second and third uncles were separated and took away most of the family's land, and they had long been dissatisfied with their grandmother's partiality.
Originally, I was expecting him to save some people tax after he showed off his talents.
Unexpectedly, Bai's father actually died, Bai Yongming didn't even pass the county test, and the child at the end of the crane didn't mix.
Now, they know that this is a pit, a deep pit, so they naturally hurry out of this bottomless pit with their wives and children.
Bai Yongming's mother washed her face with tears all day long, and she didn't know what to do in the future.
After thinking about it, he committed suicide, just to save his son that little head tax.
The original father did not marry a concubine, because of the Chen family's competitiveness, he became pregnant not long after entering the door, and there was no need to force a concubine.
So the original body only has one sister, and if she hasn't married before July next year, she will be taken away.
As for him, it was the daughter-in-law who was selected in July this year.
When it was his turn to vote, there were still three girls left.
One is thin and dirty, one is sick and illiterate, and one is a fat girl, the daughter of a butcher in the town.
The original body looked like it didn't know who to choose.
The first girl was very thin, her clothes were not only dirty but also a little torn, and her skin was a little exposed, and she couldn't even see her skin color clearly.
I heard that it was a beggar from the City God Temple.
This.........
He looked at the second one again, this girl, polite and elegant, but her face was pale and she coughed three times in one step......
Finally, there is a chubby girl, about 140 pounds, and she naturally looks worse, twice as strong as him.
Three, none of them is ideal.
Of course, if it's good, it won't be the last turn.
The officers and soldiers next to him urged him to make a choice.
In the end, the original body gritted his teeth, ready to choose a sick and weak girl, and when she married home, she might die of illness at some point, and she would marry again in another year.
Just as he was about to speak.
The first girl knelt down and kowtowed: "Big brother, it's good, you can choose me, I am seventeen years old this year, although I am ugly, but I can work."
I can go to the wharf to move goods, I can also do work in the fields, laundry and cook to wait for you, I earn my own money and pay taxes, I just ask you to give you a place to live, and I can also be a concubine. ”
At the border, their group of girls went, and it was a dead end.
That's why she was so scared, she used to dress up as a man, hiding and begging for food, but she didn't expect to be found out.
This year is her last chance.
Bai Yongming thought about it, his mother is dead, and his sister will have to marry next year, he really needs a waiter.
And she can pay her own taxes......
That.........
Just when he was moved, the fat girl also spoke, "Childe, you choose me, my family is a pig killer, and the dowry is rich, and my dowry can be used to support the family." ”
The original body looked at it carefully.
Although she is a little fat, her skin is white and tender, and she looks rich, but looking at those hands, it is obvious that she can't count on her to do any work.
He was a little entangled.
If he has money, he can still study and not be bothered by mundane affairs.
Seeing that the other two were so anxious to talk about their advantages, the sick girl was also anxious.
"Ahem, son, the slave father is the Xiucai Gong of Lijia Village, if you are willing to marry the slave family, the slave family will definitely beg the father to lend you his manuscript."
Xiucai's hand-copied ......
If he can learn, at least he can take the test, then who else in Baijia Village dares to underestimate him?
Seeing that he was hesitant and looked like he didn't choose, Qian Zhutou said impatiently: "Since you can't choose, then don't choose."
Come on, Bai Yongming, who registered in Baijia Village, married these three girls, and remembered to come to Yamen to get the marriage book another day. ”
After saying that, he directly led his subordinates to stride away, leaving only the three girls with happy faces and the original body with a frightened face.
