Chapter VII: Exemption from military service is a blessing for each other

The next day after coming back, Yu Feng didn't stay, and directly took this Xue Niang back to his home, although the old man was enthusiastic, but he was not at ease at home after all, however, when Zhao Zongqi sent their little couple out, there seemed to be more unclear and incomprehensible taste in his eyes.

The rest of the silver, he gave it to Xue Niang, how to divide the silver in this era, how to estimate the weight, he is really not as good as his wife, simply let Xue Niang to keep it. When Xue Niang saw the silver, it was not much better than when Yu Feng saw the silver for the first time, but this smart woman must have also learned something from her brother, and she was very smart not to ask about the origin of the silver, but it made Yu Feng's excuse that had been arranged for a long time useless.

Don't look at the appearance of only three or four taels of silver left, in this era, for the poor, it is an out-and-out huge amount of money, the average well-off family, a year is only this degree, if you save a little, use more three and a half months, it is not impossible.

After Yu Feng learned about the purchasing power of these silvers, his heart suddenly felt a lot more relieved, at least, for the time being, he didn't have to worry about food and clothing. Since he has no worries, then, his top priority is to recuperate his body, he can see that night, if he disagrees with those officials and starts to move, those people in the Zhao family may be able to run away, but he can't beat it, and he can't run away, it's all because his body is too weak.

He made a detailed plan for himself, how to supplement nutrition, how to exercise, at least, the old foundation in the army was still there, after a month of exercise, his fair face, there was a few ruddy colors, plus food, he was not stingy with money at all, and the whole person also gained a few pounds, and now it looks like he is a little strong.

For his change, there is no one happier than Xue Niang. In the past, he persuaded Yu Feng to boil up his body, but Yu Feng was very interested, but now he takes the initiative to exercise, which is naturally better than anything else, seeing his father-in-law, his body is getting stronger day by day, although Xue Niang doesn't say it in her mouth, but the smile on her face has not been broken almost all day long. The only thing that made her a little distressed was that Xiang Gong would never let him go up the mountain to chop wood anymore, that is, he would go to Miss Wang's embroidery village to do things, and Xiang Gong was also unhappy, which made Xue Niang, who had always been hard-working, feel quite uncomfortable with this idle day.

Xue Niang has her own little abacus in her heart, although the silver taels given to her by Xianggong are enough for a long time, but it will soon be spent to eat like this, and Xianggong doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all, so it's not good. Wait until next year, when the husband rushes to take the exam, he will have to make money for entanglement, and he can't go around borrowing money at that time.

She squirmed and told Yu Feng the worries in her heart, the meaning is very simple, life should be better, but there is no need to have meat every day, save some money, and also prepare for future needs.

Yu Feng laughed: "Don't worry about the money, I have my own measure!" Between the words, it turned out to be almost the same as what Xue Niang said to him when he just crossed over.

April 30, fine.

Early in the morning, Yu Feng went out and ran a big circle around the village, these days, every day, after coming back, in his yard, exercise, Xue Niang almost prepared breakfast, but when Yu Feng came back today, there was indeed one more guest in the yard.

The guest is Li Zheng of the village, surnamed Wang, and the lord of the Wang family, the richest family in the village, and it is said that he also got a little relative. In the past, the village was in the village, to Yu Feng's house, generally looking for Xue Niang, Yu Feng was reading the sage book behind closed doors, and he didn't hear anything outside the window, these trivial things, he has always cared about them, however, this recent Yu Feng's style, but it made Xue Niang feel a lot more gratified, with the appearance of the head of the family, so, here is talking about things, Xue Niang doesn't dare to call the shots, just wait for Yu Feng to come back.

"Yu Xiucai!" Leezheng saw him come in and made a gesture. Don't look at the domineering appearance of a grassroots cadre in front of other villagers, in front of Yu Feng, he really doesn't dare to be rude, not to mention anything else, people don't have to kneel when they see the county lord.

"This is Wang Lizheng of this village!" Xue Niang introduced, while serving tea.

"Oh, Wang Li is visiting early in the morning, I don't know what is going on!?" Yu Feng took the handkerchief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sat down in the room.

"That's the case, Yu Xianggong, the imperial court sent a big campaign to clean up the traitor Kong Youde, this army has arrived in my Lingshan, according to the rules, the local squires have to pay for the army, and all the villagers have to take out the soldiers to serve in the army, no, am I here for this matter?" Wang Lizheng is a little cramped, he has seen Yu Feng a few times before, and he is an ignorant nerd, but today he feels very different, even in front of his own family Wang Lao, he has never felt so cramped.

"Oh, my family is also going to serve as a conscription?" Yu Feng asked, casting a puzzled look at Xue Niang. If you want to serve in the conscription, there are only two people in the family, and it must have been Xue Niang in the past.

"No, no, Yu Xianggong is a scholar, how could these things fall on you!" Wang Lizheng hurriedly said: "However, this has the money to contribute, and the power to contribute, all for the sake of defending the local affairs of the hometown, showing talent and public affairs as an example for the villagers, and the general unwillingness to be the queen!" ”

"That's the army!" Yu Feng understands, this is what you need money, of course, if you don't have money, you can do it. In short, we must serve those soldiers.

"How much?" Now that he has figured it out, Yu Feng will not be verbose.

"A tael of silver!" Li Zheng seems to be a little difficult to speak, the Yu family's family background, everyone is a villager, where is there a reason not to know, this two silver, I'm afraid the Yu family can't take it out at all, of course, if his family sells an acre of land, there is no problem.

"A tael of silver!" Xue Niang, who was on the side, exclaimed, and saw that her husband was not moving as usual, so she swallowed the words that she was about to blurt out hatefully.

"Xue Niang, give it to Wang Lizheng!" Yu Feng commanded, and the reluctant Xue Niang took out the silver and handed it to Wang Lizheng, with a lot of reluctance in her eyebrows.

After sending Wang Lizheng away, Xue Niang came back and said angrily, "Xianggong, I can also go to this work or something, and I have no land to spend a tael of silver!" ”

Yu Feng turned his face blank: "What crazy words are you talking about, in the chaos of the army, you are a young woman, what do you look like?" Seeing Xue Niang's aggrieved appearance, his heart softened, and he opened his mouth to soothe him again: "You married me, you have never enjoyed happiness, but you have suffered a lot, and now there is still a little money in the family, how can I be willing to let you suffer?" ”

Xue Niang's tears fell, not that she felt sorry for the silver, but that Yu Feng's words were too lethal, at this moment, Xue Niang felt that all the hardships she had suffered before were worth it, and she had a husband who loved her so much, what else could she ask for.

"It's okay, Xianggong dares to spend it, and naturally he has the ability to get it back, you don't have to worry!"

Yu Feng knew in his heart, counting the time, it was almost a month, according to the progress of looking for those people in the Zhao family to cook salt, they should have accumulated a lot of salt goods, just these days, if these people don't come to find themselves, they will also go to Zhaojia Village, and they will have to go back to earn some money.

The development of things was not much different from what Yu Feng expected, and on the second night, Zhao Gui and Zhao Deng really took advantage of the night to come to Yu Feng's house.

The Zhao family followed Yu Feng to sell salt goods at the beginning, tasted the sweetness, after coming back, naturally boiled salt full of energy, every family has stored a lot of salt goods, the original agreement is more than a month, Yu Feng will go to Zhaojia Village again, but wait a few more days, Yu Feng is delayed, at this time, there is a heavy mind, pick up everyone, and go to run again.

At this time, Zhao Gui's role came out, he was the oldest, his seniority was also high, and his words carried a lot of weight among those juniors, in fact, what these people meant was that Zhao Gui wanted Zhao Gui to take the lead.

Zhao Gui is of course very clear about his ability, and not to mention that Yu Feng was talking and laughing with the salt merchant at that time, and sold the salt goods of his people to a high price that he had never thought of, that is, on the way back, Zhao Gui saw the performance after meeting those salt dings, and compared himself with Yu Feng, he asked himself that he couldn't catch up even if he was a horse, his own group of people had strength, but if it came to brains, I am afraid that no one could compare with Yu Feng. What is this called, this is called strategy, Emperor Taizu can win the world, if there is no clever and unparalleled Liu Bowen around him, can he be so cool?

Everyone is doing a head-killing business, no matter how cautious it is, besides, Yu Feng has already promised that if there is salt goods again, he will take them to run again, people in this era pay attention to a promise, so he simply took Zhao Deng to take a trip to see why Yu Feng was delayed.

When Yu Feng saw the two of them, he knew in his heart that he was afraid that the thing he was looking forward to had come. At the moment, the laughter feast asked Xue Niang to rectify a table of dishes and entertain these two.

At this time, the rules are that women can't eat at the table, even if their mother's brother and uncle come, it's the same, without Xue Niang on the side, the three of them talk at the table, but they don't have to hide it, they just said the topic.

"Brother-in-law, when are you going to our Zhaojia Village, everyone is looking forward to you!" Zhao Deng spoke vaguely, but in his hand was a storm to deal with the dishes on the table, although he made some money last time, but he was so willing to eat and drink like Yu Feng, he didn't even think about it.

"Yes, Mr. Yu, everyone is looking forward to you!" Zhao Gui also looked at Yu Feng eagerly. Zhao Gui's title, I don't know when, has also subtly changed from "Yu Xiucai" to "Mr. Yu".
