A few decades ago, in Zhoujia Village near Yingzui Ridge, there was a wealthy landlord surnamed Zhou.

This week, the rich man alone occupied several acres of land, and the family had countless fields and shops, and the aunt and grandmother went out to ask for more than a dozen sedan chairs to carry them.

You have to say that this person is usually kind to people and very open-minded, but when he encounters giving money, he becomes deductible and stupid.

Just because I agreed with my own family worker to go to work, in order to let the long-term workers in the family work more, I specially trained my rooster to crow a few times earlier.

In the morning, he praised you for making the Grange home.

Working at night, he scolded you for only knowing how to eat white rice, and the grange does not support idlers.

Every time there is a natural disaster, they must go around collecting fields and slaves.

Even if it is not for long-term workers, it is not much better for tenants who cultivate their own land.

As soon as you eat the New Year's banquet at the end of the year, you will open your throat and sing a big play!

First of all, he praised the tenants who paid more land rent, and rewarded them with a few taels of silver.

Then he immediately scolded the tenants who paid the little rent for their lazy donkeys, and also said that they would take back the land of the tenants who paid the least rent and drive them out.

As soon as these words came out, the tenants panicked!

I have worked hard for a year, and no matter how much I pay, I can eat, but if the land is harvested, the whole family will starve to death.

Therefore, even if some tenants really have a small harvest, in order not to be taken away, they have to give a few percent to this surnamed Zhou, which is called a good harvest.

In this way, the rich man of Zhou only needs to pick out the tenant who pays the most rent every year, give up a few taels of silver, and at the end of the year, he will have more than dozens of times the income from land rent.

is so heavy, the evil deeds are obvious, and it is the style of the squire and the sage, and all the things he does are disgusting.

He, in the end, was planted on the door and lost the life of the whole family.

On that day, the old rich man's mother celebrated her 80th birthday, and he spent hundreds of taels of silver to raise money to hold a birthday temple fair, and the county officials alone did not know how many people were invited.

As soon as you enter the hall, the decorations must be luxurious, the food must be exquisite, and the people must come and go, but you are confused in inviting the troupe.

The rich man of Zhou only wanted to invite the yang opera troupe, not the yin opera troupe, after all, those dramas also had to give some money, and dozens of taels of white money went out, and he was in pain.

As for him, he thought of a bad move.

Push off the yin opera troupe, let the yang opera troupe sing yang opera for half a day, and sing yin opera at night when no one is around, and sing two kinds of opera for the same money.

When the rich man Zhou thought of this money-saving trick, he was so happy that he even drank several more glasses of wine.

A house slave reminded him not to forget the rules, and his backhand was an ear scraper - old Diao slave, tell you to talk too much, master, I have killed many poor people, and you are still afraid of poor ghosts?

During the day, there is nothing to do, and all directions come to celebrate the birthday, lively and beautiful.

But in the evening, when the villagers returned home, the guests dispersed, and the stage stood alone in the dark, even if the oil lamp was lit, there was no light in the eyes of the wild cat.

Na Danjiao was wearing blue and black water sleeves, a snow-white turban wrapped in petals, a silver sword with a chain in his hand, and babbling and singing "Dou E's Injustice".

From time to time, the wind hits on the stage, blowing the stage whimpering and swaying, no matter how good the kung fu is, you have to choke and stagger, no matter whether it is playing drums or gongs and drums and erhu, it is all like losing your soul and not being able to pull it.

In this Danjiao Mountain, the red performance was sprinkled with blood and white practice, and the whirring wind turned into a choking ghost crying, and the faint white shadow shook around the stage, although I couldn't see the human figure, I felt that the station was full.

The head of the class was held and respected everywhere, and when he saw this posture, he was so frightened that he hurriedly returned the money and left at night with the troupe.

Seeing that the troupe had returned the money for singing yin opera, Zhou Caizhu was also so happy that he saved dozens of taels, and he was so happy that he forgot everything.

In the first half of the night, there was nothing to do, but in the second half of the night, the entire Zhou house sounded an extremely ugly ghost crying wolf howl, and those masters and maids killed each other like crazy demons, and it was only after a night of trouble that they could live in peace.

Some villagers who heard the movement climbed in from the courtyard wall to check, and their throats were so frightened that they turned out, and when they reached the ground, yellow soup flowed all over the ground along their trouser legs.

This matter was soon reported to the county, and as soon as the official opened the door of the house, he ~

The whole family, whether it was the old lady or the young master, all hung themselves neatly on the front beam of the hall, but the maid and slave were not much troubled, but they were knocked unconscious, and they immediately woke up after pouring a few bowls of cold well water.

The county magistrate pulled up the court to shoot the case and asked, and the servants had everything to say!

It turned out that all the masters were stunned last night, crying and making trouble saying that they were having a hard time, and they were not even allowed to listen to the stage play, crying, making trouble, and hanging themselves, and whoever stopped them would scratch and bite, and in the end, the maids and slaves couldn't stop it, so that all the rich men were hanged on the beam this week.

Since he was retribution for disrespecting ghosts and gods, the county magistrate had nothing to investigate, so he asked the maids and servants to draw evidence to corroborate, and immediately regained his free body.

As for the wealth of the rich man Zhou, the county lord is high-spirited and bright, so he naturally keeps it for the old man Zhou and benefits the villagers.

Clarify the reasons and close the case.

This matter should be put in the mouth of the old man, that is, the rich man of Zhou will kill himself if he commits many injustices, and it is the bad rules that have been punished by the world.

But when he asked about the second uncle, Old Man Yue raised his pipe, glanced at him with a sly look in his eyes, and said something:

"If it's really the maids who are scratched, why don't they even have any injuries on their bodies, and besides, I heard that the reins of their death are the blood ropes commonly used by Yin players!"

"This, we don't know, anyway, the slaves of the family are free, the county lord has treasures, and the yin drama is angry, how can he be a rich man in Zhou, who cares!"

There is a way that the sins of heaven are forgivable, and the sins of oneself cannot be lived, and the rich man of Zhou has done all the bad things, and there must be a harvest, and the people in the countryside have suffered for a long time.

If you mention it again, it is to abide by the old rules of the temple fair!
