A lucky wife born again from a farm family

However, this is just a rumor. What the royal family said to the outside world is that after Emperor Jingyuan entered the hinterland of Da Rong, he was ambushed by the Rong people. After being injured, he lurked in Da Rong. Finally, he escaped to Longshan through hardships and was captured by Duke Wei and his son. Rescue him and send him back to the capital safely.

But I heard my father say that since then, Emperor Jingyuan's temperament had indeed begun to change, becoming suspicious, easily frightened, and even violent.

But Emperor Jingyuan was good at pretending and had a good father, so he finally ascended to the throne smoothly.

But since he ascended the throne, he began to seek death. As soon as he ascended the throne, he focused on the Wei Guogong family. After planning for more than two years, he began to take action against the Wei Guogong family. In the end, the entire Northwestern Army's defenses were disrupted, making the current Northwestern Army completely incompetent and unable to fight back after being beaten by the soldiers.

"Master, we're home." Zezi called out and stopped the mule cart. Erqing jumped off the front of the cart first, moved the stool down and put it away, then stepped aside and waited.

Gu Jinan immediately got out of the mule cart. The atmosphere in the cart was so touching that his brother-in-law couldn't stay any longer. If he stayed any longer, he would be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Qin Sanlang didn't wait long and helped Gu Jinli get out of the car.

"Brother An, Xiaoyu, you are back. If you don't come back home, you will go to the town to find someone." Gu Dashan had been waiting at the door of the house, fearing that Gu Jinan and the others might do something wrong: "Sanlang is back too, how can I love you?" Okay, come in quickly, dinner has been prepared long ago and can be eaten immediately."

Gu Dashan was very happy to see Qin Sanlang. This future second son-in-law hadn't been home for a long time, and he was not in peace recently, so he was worried about him.

"Uncle Dashan." Qin Sanlang smiled, reluctantly let go of Gu Jinli's hand, clasped his fists in salute to Gu Dashan, and followed Gu Dashan into the house.

The third grandfather, the third grandmother, and Mrs. Cui were very happy to see Qin Sanlang. They immediately added bowls and chopsticks and called to him: "Sanlang, come and sit quickly. He must be very hungry when he comes back so late. Let's start dinner quickly."

"Hey." After greeting several elders, Qin Sanlang looked at Mr. Qin aside and said, "Grandpa, my grandson is back. Everything is fine recently. Grandpa, don't worry."

After hearing this, Mr. Qin's brows relaxed obviously, and he nodded and said, "Sit down and eat."

The two families had a meal happily. After the meal, the third grandmother and the others gathered around Qin Sanlang and asked: "Sanlang, the emperor is going to increase taxes. If you can't pay, will you be beheaded?"

Qin Sanlang nodded: "Yes, maybe even the entire clan."

The emperor has never been a soft-hearted person, but a master who is very good at killing people with the blade of power. He has a strong self-esteem. Even if he makes a mistake, he will not admit it and correct it until he has to, but will suppress it forcefully.

So when it comes to taxes, if someone dares to refuse to pay, the whole village must be prepared to be beheaded.

When the soldiers' families could no longer pay taxes and the soldiers rebelled, the emperor would not admit his mistakes, but would send troops to suppress them. If he could suppress them, he would continue to make mistakes. If he could not suppress them, he would send peace talks to correct the mistakes.

Therefore, the current situation is quite unfavorable for the farmers. They cannot resist. The emperor has never taken their resistance seriously. In the emperor's opinion, the soldiers gathered by the peasants were just a mob, and only the rebellious soldiers could scare the emperor.

"Hey, what can we do?" The third grandma cried out: "Can't God give us farmers a way to survive? We have been hit by disasters and wars in the past few years. I thought life would be easier in the south. , I didn’t expect it to be so difficult. With such a high tax, I’m afraid many people will die this time.”

The third grandma cried very sadly. She was a person who had suffered a great disaster. She thought her life would be peaceful when she was getting old, but she encountered such a thing again. She was really desperate.

I thought of the Fuya family again.

"I don't know where Fuya's family is now. What if they don't have money to pay taxes and are beheaded?" The third grandma said, covering her face and crying bitterly.

Gu Jinan said hurriedly: "Third grandma, don't cry. Aunt Fuya's family is blessed with good fortune and everything will be fine."

He added: "Mr. Ouyang's family has already taken action and plans to join forces with several wealthy and powerful families to open a bank and lend money to farmers across Chu to pay taxes. As long as farmers can borrow money to pay taxes, this disaster will be solved. Can pass."

"Seriously?" Third Grandma's eyes lit up and she asked, "Can your Aunt Fuya and her family borrow money to pay taxes?"

Gu Jinan nodded: "Of course it is possible. The power of the wealthy families is spread all over Dachu. As long as this bank is opened, farmers throughout Dachu can borrow money. As long as Aunt Fuya and her family are still in Dachu, they can borrow money." To silver."

Gu Jinan knew that Aunt Fuya was the third grandma's hope for survival, so in order to prevent the third grandma from despair, he lied.

Mr. Ouyang and the Dou family are indeed rich, but no matter how much money they have, it is not enough. The most they can do is let the people of He'an Mansion borrow money.

The third grandma believed in Gu Jinan. After hearing this, she grabbed his hand and said, "That's good. Then your Aunt Fuya and her family will be saved."

I also asked Mr. Ouyang about opening a bank and lending money to farmers.

Gu Jinan picked up something he could say.

"Wait a minute." After hearing this, the third grandma ran back into the house. When she came back, she had an extra box in her hand: "This is the money we two elders saved. You can give it to Mr. Ouyang... maybe this money It can fall into my lucky hands."

Gu Jinan didn't want it, but it was a request from the third grandma, so he had no choice but to accept it.

But he only took half of it, and the remaining half was still in the box. He gave it back to the third grandma: "These are enough. You can keep the rest with you."

The third grandmother did not insist anymore, but accepted: "There are orphans and widows in several nearby villages. They have no money. If they come and ask, I will lend it to them."

"Brother Qin, please go back and have a rest first." Gu Jinli saw that Qin Sanlang's tiredness had worsened, and he couldn't bear for him to stay here to talk to everyone anymore, so he asked him to go back first.

The third grandma looked at Qin Sanlang and said, "Sanlang seems to be overtired. Go back and have a rest."

Qin Sanlang said: "Then I will go back first."

Then he said: "I have to leave before dawn. I can't come to see the elders tomorrow."

This was meant for Gu Jinli, who nodded towards him and said, "Brother Qin is too particular about etiquette. We are all so familiar with each other, so there is no need for this. You should go back and rest quickly."

I'll wait for you to come see me, don't worry.

Qin Sanlang understood, smiled at her, and followed Mr. Qin home.

…

In the Qin family, Mr. Qin asked Qin Sanlang some things. After listening to Qin Sanlang's words, he fell silent.

After a long time, he said: "Da Chu, how could he become like this?"

There was sadness in his voice, remembering how high-spirited the old master and the others were when they conquered the world. They once swore to establish a dynasty that would not be influenced by wealthy families, allow all children from poor families to show their talents, and inherit the dynasty for thousands of years.

But looking at Da Chu today, it is simply a joke.
