Even if she was comforted by her granddaughter, Mrs. Qiu still felt extremely disgusted with her cousin after crying, if it weren't for her cousin, their Qiu family would not have broken up.

She stared at the midwife even tighter, as long as she was in Qixiang Village for a day, she would never allow this cousin to perfunctory her granddaughter. She threatens with a kitchen knife all day long.

The midwife also complained, so at the beginning she taught indiscriminately, for example, the opening of the palace had to depend on the situation, but the midwife taught indiscriminately, which caused Qiu Yufeng to be suspicious.

Qiu Yufeng is a fine person, who has been with the midwife for many years, and vaguely knows the doorway inside. Giving birth to a child is a woman's big pass, it doesn't matter if the midwife teaches indiscriminately, if she takes it seriously, and there is a problem with other women in the future, then it is not a small job to smash the rice bowl, and it is big to make a corpse and two lives? When the time comes, not only will people not give benefits, but also let themselves pay for their lives?

The more Qiu Yufeng thought about it, the more frightened she became, she didn't say anything at first, but ran to ask the other two female dolls in the same village who were studying in Dr. Tang's school.

Qiu Yufeng was dripping in cold sweat, and told her grandmother about the midwife's indiscriminate teaching and the consequences that would occur in the future, and the latter let the midwife see blood on the spot.

Qiu Pozi's eyes were red with hatred, "If I find out that you are teaching again, I will chop off your finger again!" Ten fingers chopped off, and ten toes! See who can afford whom! ”

The midwife, who is missing a finger, no longer dares to rely on her ability to do anything wrong.

Why? Her ability will be replaced by the first batch of female dolls in Dr. Tang's school shed in the future, and her character is not up to par, and everyone hates it. Even if she was chopped off a finger this time, no one stood up to speak, and the people in the same village saw through her nature and were afraid of causing a commotion.

The midwife lived so much, and for the first time, she tasted the fate of being alone.

However, she deserves it.

It's a debt that accumulates over time.

On the day of Xiao Zhonglu's birthday, it was also quite lively, barbecuing during the day and campfire at night, singing and playing games, the rules of the game were all provided by Tang Zangyue, and they were all small games that were played in later generations.

At night, it was still the long-term worker in the family who sent the female doll back to the village, and the children of Jiuli Village went together, and Xiao Zhonglu and Xiao Zhongli personally sent it, which could avoid some incidents.

When Xiao Zhonglu came back, the main room was still lit with firelight, Xiao Zhongli waved his hand to the eldest brother, and the latter came to the main room with warm eyes.

Tang Zangyue sat in the rocking chair, shaking her a little drowsy, suddenly noticed a burst of weight on her knees, she lifted her eyes and saw that it was Xiao Zhonglu's forehead against her thigh, in an intimate posture, like a two- or three-year-old child.

It's coquettish.

It's rare, it's really rare.

Tang Zangyue's calloused palm covered the back of the other party's head, stroked it, and said in a low voice: "Are you happy today?" ”

Xiao Zhonglu wanted to make a sound, but found that his throat was choked so badly that he couldn't say anything, so he had to nod his head violently to show his emotions.

Happy, grandmother.

Of course happy, grandmother.

Before the birth of his twin brother, his birthday was not so pleasant. After my grandfather's birthday, it was my own, and many times when my grandfather was on the battlefield, his birthday became a day of consolation for my grandmother and other elders, and every year he was very happy, and every year on this day he was the center, and everyone revolved around him.

However, since the birth of his twin brothers, he has been forced to grow up, and no one cares about his birthday. Not only did there be no birthday banquet on this day, but even the most basic big fish and meat were scarce, because I was tired of eating two days ago, so I changed to some light porridge.

No matter how sensible he is, he has complained.

But he is the eldest in this generation, he can't have his own little emotions, and he will also go to the battlefield in the future......

Xiao Zhonglu warned himself that he couldn't be petty.

But his grandmother told him that he would always be a child in her eyes, and that she could support the family.

The line of defense in his heart has actually been broken, tonight seeing those children wishing him a happy birthday, seeing everyone toasting to bless themselves, seeing that they are all coming for themselves, he endured and endured, for fear of being seen by outsiders crying.

How can a man cry? They all call themselves Brother Xiao! He is the eldest in the Xiao family's generation!

Only, only when there is no one around, when there is only a grandmother, he can be a child without presumption......

"Grandmother." He finally found his voice.

But it's crying.

Tang Zangyue kept soothing the child's hair, and her thoughts drifted far away.

……

In the sowing season in April, there were no leisure people in Jiuli Village, and the Xiao family also gave long-term workers a vacation to work on family affairs.

Tang Zangyue is making some new products, such as tofu.

Tofu is generally more popular in the south, because the humidity in the air is enough, and there are few tofu in the north, and Tang Zangyue only tried it.

At home, I generally drink big ballast porridge in the morning, with kimchi and cold vegetables, and there are very few dishes for porridge, and Aunt Liu is busy, and many times I deal with two mouthfuls of breakfast and lunch.

To put it mildly, after the opening of Liu's restaurant, their Xiao family was the most difficult to taste Aunt Liu's cooking. Therefore, Tang Zangyue thought about making some tofu milk to add dishes to the breakfast table.

After success, it will be handed over to Aunt Liu to make better tasting tofu.

When she was busy, Wang's second sister-in-law brought news: "Old lady, is the old lady here?" ”

Tang Zangyue opened the door and saw that the second sister-in-law Wang handed over a handful of dried cowpeas, "Old lady, this is dried cowpeas made by my mother, doesn't the Xiao family like to eat them?" My mother will let me send some over...... Oh, by the way, old lady, there is one more thing, have you heard? ”

Tang Zangyue took the handful of dried cowpeas and took a look, it was not a valuable thing, it was a little bit of rural people's heart. Hearing this, he raised his eyes again and followed the other party's words: "What did you hear?" ”

"The imperial court issued a decree to urge the collection of taxes, which is to force individuals to death."

Tang Zangyue's eyes condensed.

It's not for Wang's second sister-in-law, but the idea has been realized again and again.

The statement that there is no tax in the plot of the original book is because the faint monarch looted the general's mansion, resulting in a large amount of silver in the treasury, which is enough for the faint monarch to squander for several years. But this silver fell into her space, and even if the faint monarch confiscated from the minister's mansion, it would not be as good as the treasury silver of the general's mansion, and it was only a matter of time before the other party thought of looting the people's fat and people's ointment.

The tax revenue of Chu was already higher than that of previous dynasties, and if there were natural and man-made disasters later, the destruction of Chu was doomed.

Tang Zangyue: "Yes." ”

Seeing her indifferent expression, Wang's second sister-in-law mistakenly thought that she had angered the other party, and said cautiously: "Old lady, but I said the wrong thing?" ”

"Nope."

Second sister-in-law Wang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's fine." I'll just say that this tax will not have much impact on the Xiao family, and you shouldn't ...... old lady By the way, old lady, hasn't the dishwasher found a suitable one yet? What do you think of me? She quickly changed the subject and clarified the real purpose of this visit.

"You?" Tang Zangyue looked at Wang's second sister-in-law.
