Chapter 14 Yang’s thoughts

Nan Yan would take time to go to the fields every day. That day, Nan Yan was just about to go out with Mei Lan. As soon as she opened the door, she saw the woman standing at the door of her house.

During this period of time, Mrs. Yang always felt unhappy when looking at Nan Yan's silk fabrics. So today, when there was no one at home, she came to Nan Yan's house to chat with Nan Yan and get closer to Nan Yan.

When Mrs. Yang saw Nan Yan opening the door and coming out, she said, "Miss Nan is going out!"

Nan Yan saw that although Yang was looking at her, his eyes were moving around to look at everything in her courtyard.

Nan Yan frowned and said, "What's the matter?" Seeing the naked calculation in Yang's eyes, she felt very unhappy.

"Nothing, ah, I just have nothing to do at home, so I came here to chat with Miss Nan." Yang was a little afraid of Nan Yan's cold gaze.

"Oh, that's right. I have something to do today, so I'd better wait until I have time to chat another day!" Nan Yan said.

Don't be ridiculous. She has no interest in chatting with Yang about who's parents are weak in the village. If Yang is looking for someone to gossip about, she's afraid she's looking for the wrong person.

Yang looked at Nan Yan who ignored her and walked away, and said with a broken heart: "Bah, I thought she was a young lady from a rich family, and she was not an orphan. If I hadn't fallen in love with the big house and so many fields that my father-in-law said,

, I don’t want to deal with you, a loser."

It was also when she passed by her parents-in-law's house one night and heard her father-in-law and mother-in-law talking about Nan Yan's home in the city that she began to think about having sex with Nan Yan and her brother-in-law.

Yes, Yang was just going to chat with Nan Yan, and kept talking about Zhou Yue during the chat, hoping to make Nan Yan have a good impression of Zhou Yue.

If Nan Yan and Zhou Yue form a good relationship, then as Nan Yan's sister-in-law, will Nan Yan give them good things?

Hey, it's just that this Nan Yan, she has already arrived at the door of the house, and she didn't even invite her to sit at home, and left without giving her face.

Nan Yan didn't know Yang's true thoughts, but she heard Yang scolding her. Nan Yan's eyes flashed coldly, and a mouse that was still sleeping in the ground suddenly appeared and jumped on Yang's feet.

"Oh, why did this dead mouse get on my feet?" Yang, who was thinking about something just now, saw the mouse jump on her feet, and now she shook her feet and jumped.

At the same time, he was still angry, picked up a wooden stick from the roadside, swung the wooden stick to hit the mouse, and cursed: "Let's see if I don't beat you to death, I won't beat you to death..."

Nan Yan showed a smile. She was a bad person who would bite her teeth in retaliation. Yang dared to call her a loser, so she was lucky that she didn't break Yang's neck.

I met Mr. Wu who was coming back from the fields. After saying hello, I heard Mrs. Wu scolding me: "The second brother's family asked you to clean up and make breakfast at home? Why are you hitting me with a stick here at the intersection now?"

Yang, who was chasing mice, heard her mother-in-law's voice. While beating the mice running around, she said, "Mom, I was planning to go to the fields to do some work and then come back to cook. When I got to the intersection and saw the mice passing by, I beat them to death with a stick."

It, these dirty things saved can always harm the food at home."

Yang didn't dare to let her mother-in-law know that she went to Nan Yan to introduce her brother-in-law, and she couldn't let her mother-in-law know what she was thinking. Now she could only say this to her mother-in-law.

Wu gave Yang a fierce look.

He and his husband had three sons and two daughters in their lives. The eldest and the second were married. The eldest daughter-in-law was married to the daughter of the Tao family from the next village, and the second daughter-in-law was from the same village.

The eldest daughter-in-law doesn't talk much on weekdays and just does what she says, but the second daughter-in-law is different. The second daughter-in-law is usually lazy when doing farm work, and she also has a lot of thoughts.

Mrs. Wu knew how the second daughter-in-law could want to help in the fields. She must have done something that cannot be told to her and lied here.

After Mrs. Wu glared at Mrs. Yang, she said, "Since you want to work in the fields, then come back with me to get water for Erfu and the others. I'll make lunch at home today."

Yang didn't dare to refute her mother-in-law's words, so she could only angrily carry the basket on her back that the village chief and others had forgotten when they went to the fields earlier, and dragged her face to the fields.

Nan Yan and Mei Lan were walking on the path, listening to the conversation between Wu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and thinking to herself that she had only been in the village for a short time, but she had also seen a lot of good and bad in "farmhouses".

After dinner every day, or taking care of their children at home during the day, the women in the village would gather at the entrance of the village to sit and chat about their family affairs.

A few days after she came to the village, she heard a lot of gossip from the villagers as she passed the village entrance.

Today, either a couple is fighting, or a child of a certain family is disobedient, or they have done some terrible things at home, or someone's daughter-in-law is making a fuss about separating the family.

Of course, among these women who were chatting, there was also the sensible person who refuted the woman who was confusing right and wrong.

Nan Yan can only say, "The same rice can feed all kinds of people", and not everyone can be nourished with upright roots and healthy sprouts.

The Xia Dynasty would collect "corvees" every year, allowing each household in the village to provide a labor force to work for the government for free for one or two months.

The government imposed corvees, and the people were not well fed, and they had to do a lot of work every day. However, those who returned from serving would have to take a long time to recover from the physical damage.

There are some people who are just unlucky and may end up serving in the military.

She has been in Linzhou Fucheng for so long, but she has never heard about the corvée draft. Whether it is drafted or not has nothing to do with her. Anyway, her family has no extra men besides her, so no one can serve. She only needs to pay every year.

Just go to the Yamen and ask the Yamen to help you with your service.

She had money to give to the government, but the villagers were different. The villagers could only grit their teeth and serve.

Therefore, in order to cope with the various rules of the court, many families in the village did not separate their families, and the whole family lived together.

When there are more people, there will be more right and wrong, and conflicts will always arise from time to time.

Nan Yan was thinking about the ancient rule that people should not separate their families while their parents are still alive. She couldn't help but shudder. Fortunately, she was reborn as an idiot. If she was reincarnated into a big family like that, according to her personality, it really wouldn't be possible.

Ways to get along with your family.

Nan Yan's mouth was so smart that she just whispered about corvee service. The village chief called the villagers to the entrance of the village and told them about the service.

Nan Yan followed him out of curiosity and heard that the village chief said that he was going to serve in Huizhou this time.

When the villagers heard that they were going to Texas, someone immediately said: "Village Chief, why are you going to such a far place this year?"

Dezhou is a neighboring city to Linzhou, but in the Xia Dynasty when transportation was inconvenient, it would take at least seven or eight days to travel from Linzhou to Dezhou. If you had to walk there, it would take even longer.

The village chief did not expect that he would go to a place far away even if he did not mention this service. Listening to the villagers' questions, the village chief sighed and said: "The time and place are decided by the officials. We will go wherever the officials say we will go."

There is still time to gain, so everyone should hurry up and register. This time, we will go to those who have served, and then go back and make preparations. In three days, I will take everyone to the city to meet with the government."

The woman with a small labor force in the family wiped her eyes on the spot and said: "Oh, my old man is not in good health this year. All the heavy work in the family falls on my eldest son. Now that the eldest son is going to serve in the army, I can do whatever I want!"

One of the women also wiped away tears and said, "My little boy has only celebrated his sixteenth birthday this year. Now he is going to serve in the army. I don't know if he can do a good job as an official."
