The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-law

Chapter 222: Zheng family

Zhou Shuren looked at the quail-shaped sons with satisfaction, "Remember your mother's words, don't wait to be swayed and regret it is useless."

Boss Zhou has a particularly strong desire to survive, "Father, you know who I am, and my mind has never been twisted and twisted. I won't move if anyone has a crooked mind."

Witty, look, the first time the reaction was so fast, as for whether it would fool the younger brothers, oh, the younger brothers are all bad, not worth worrying about!

Zhou Lao Er looked up at Fang Liang, it had nothing to do with him, his daughter-in-law was his, he cared more than anyone else.

Chang Lian wants to scold people, the fourth brother, the second brother is sly and meticulous, but Mrs. Zhao is the second sister-in-law. Seeing how the second brother is very rare, the second brother will not count his daughter-in-law.

So here comes the problem, the elder brother's words allude to him, the younger brother doesn't care about these things, so he is left with a lot of heartache. A few days ago, he even calculated a big sister-in-law, woo woo, this is my brother, just now my mother said The family, this pits him.

Chang Lian saw his father look at him, his back felt cold, and suddenly he understood why his father warned him, it is okay to cheat on outsiders, but not for family members. , I have the heart to kill the boss, "Father, I promise you and my mother that if I think about my family in the future, I will not die.

Zhou Shuren and Zhulan, ""

Isn't Duanzijuesun also their grandson and great-grandson?

Chang Lian saw that his father and mother's face was not good, and secretly said, "Father and mother, I have no other intentions, I just put my father and mother's future grandson and grandson, as long as I don't have bad thoughts!"

He has confidence in himself, his vision is wide, and after his father's education, he understands that even if he falls, he has a chance to get up.

Zhulan felt that if Chang Lian betrayed her future grandson and great-grandson like this, the future grandson would definitely be angry, but Chang Lian was well educated by Zhou Shuren.

Zhou Shuren said in his heart that he was sorry for the future grandson and great-grandson. He seemed to frighten your father and grandfather. Don't be angry. Don't be frightened by the bad father and grandfather.

Changzhi saw that the third brother was so cruel, but he didn't swear, and said swiftly, "Daddy, I don't like calculating, my heart is in the book."

A year ago, he still had the mind to tease the third brother and win the attention of his mother, but now he has no time. He has to learn the books brought back by his father, and he has to complete the homework that is heavier than the third brother every day, so he has no time to distract his mind.

That's right, Mr. Ethnology gave him a small stove, and he really didn't have any spare time.

After hearing these words, Mrs. Zhao felt more at ease. For herself and her daughter, she touched her daughter's face. The daughter was more fortunate than her. She looked at Xianggong and saw Xianggong looking at her with a smile on her lips. She was also lucky. .

After dinner, Zhulan and Zhou Shuren went back to rest first. Zhou Shuren waited for Zhulan to lay out the quilt, "I'll go get you water and wash your feet."

Zhulan pulled, "I'm going to fight today, you've been tired all day."

Zhou Shuren insisted, "If I don't give you water to wash your feet, I always feel that something is missing."

Zhulan sat still, this person, he has to take the opportunity to make a confession once when he has a drink, so give him this opportunity.

After pouring a basin of water, the two of them washed their feet together, and Zhu Lan waited for Zhou Shuren to pour the water and came back to lie down. She felt at ease, and she could finally sleep well today.

Zhou Shuren's heart is also at ease, "By the way, I was in Pingzhou this time and heard some news from the previous dynasty. It is estimated that it has something to do with Zheng's family."

Zhulan became energized, "What did you hear?"

Zhou Shuren said, "It's a coincidence. It's not winter again. The borders have been tense in winter, so I talked about the generals who led the troops. There was a general surnamed Zheng in the previous dynasty, and the family was demoted to the northeast border. One year Failing to prevent the foreigners from rushing into the gate, the Zheng family organized a public resistance, and when the foreigners had enough to withdraw, the guards lied that the Zheng family had raised troops to rebel because they were afraid that they would not be able to defend the frontier.”

Zhulan asked, "What happened later?"

Zhou Shuren continued, "Later, a fire broke out in the Zheng family, and the whole family died, and no one survived."

Zhu Lan said, "So you guess that Zheng's natal family is the Zheng family?"

Zhou Shuren nodded and said, "I didn't inquire about it for two days before I went to Pingzhou. Although I didn't investigate deeply, I know that the Zheng family arrived in Lijia Village forty-five years ago. During the snow disaster, many people left their hometowns. Later, after the disaster, many did not return to their ancestral land. The Zheng family did not return and stayed in Lijia Village.

Zhulan counted Zheng's age, she was fifty-two years old this year, minus forty-five, she was seven years old, and she was also the governor at that time, "No wonder Zheng's body and bones are not good, when he was demoted to the border and fled in the snowstorm, I've been hurt since I was a child!"

Zhou Shuren sighed, "In ancient times, this was not good. If one person made a mistake and implicated the entire family, he would be relegated to his ancestral home, exiled to the border for heavier cases, or even beheaded, his descendants were servants of officials, and the women were miserable."

Zhulan wobbled, "Have you forgotten that there are still three Zhu clan?"

Zhou Shuren, "There is also the Nine Clan."

Zhulan sighed, "Survival in ancient times was not easy, by the way, should you still ask about the Zheng family?"

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "It's almost certain, don't ask, it's not easy for the Zheng family to be safe. If we didn't want to avoid trouble, we wouldn't ask. That's enough."

Zhulan nodded, "You said, is the Zheng family wronged?"

"There were many unjust cases at the end of the dynasty, especially the generals who held military power."

Zhulan sighed with emotion, and then she stopped thinking about it. When she hit Hati, she was really sleepy and fell asleep in Zhou Shuren's arms.

Zhou Shuren kissed Zhulan's face and fell asleep contentedly.

Zhou Shuren returned to the village, and the patriarch Zhou came the next day. Before Zhou Shuren went to Pingzhou, he asked the patriarch to help find out who sold the land. Now that the autumn harvest is over, the land tax has been paid, and the patriarch Zhou has written back. .

The Zhou Wang family also came together, and the Zheng family happened to be at Zhulan's house. Zhou Wang said, "Is it too much for your family to buy 50 acres of land in one go?"

In recent years, the weather has been good, and the fields are not cheap. The best paddy fields are 12 taels per mu, the middle ones are 8 taels per mu, the second-class 5 taels have not increased, and the good dry fields are 5 taels per mu, which have increased by 5 taels this year. For two money, fifty acres of dry land is two hundred and sixty taels. Zhou Shuren's family wants twenty acres of paddy fields~www.wuxiaspot.com~30 acres of dry land, which is a lot of money!

Zhulan smiled, "Not much."

She still wanted to buy more, but it was a pity that the money was not enough. She and Zhou Shuren made a calculation. If she was admitted to the Juren next year, the results would be released just before the autumn harvest, and the land tax that could be exempted from the purchases was equivalent to an extra 50 acres. The tax money for the land, after careful calculation, I can earn almost 80 taels of land without paying taxes.

In this way, silver money generates silver money. After the land is collected in the next year, the fields are sold. The collected money is just enough to buy a small village near Pingzhou.

Zhou Wangshi saw Zhulan say this, come on, she is thinking about nothing, and at the same time, Zhou Shuren's family is too rich, and Chang Lian's betrothal gift is almost three hundred taels, and he has to keep money for living after buying the land. Well, Zhou Shuren's family has thousands of taels of silver in cash!

Zhou Wangshi thought that her own family still took advantage of her son, Lizheng, and often received benefits. She hadn't saved a lot of money over the years, and she didn't plan to say anything after laughing. She was jealous!

Zheng put down the cup in his hand and asked the patriarch's wife, "Did the patriarch know who sold the land?"
