Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 1173 Outrageous
"Oh, you can dream." Gu Dagui sneered, "We share the dividends of the workshop with the big brother, but every time we take the lion's share, the money in the big brother's hand is already less than ours, and we have to give it to Brother Xing." How much money can you give me as a dowry gift? Fifty taels is not bad."

Do you think that the big brother is a golden mountain that cannot be dug up?

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen was finally happy, straightened Gu Dagui's messed up clothes and said, "Look at you, you're still angry, I just asked casually, I didn't want to do anything to you."

Bah, Gu Dagui sneered: "Did you ask? It's obviously beating!"

Gu Dagui felt that he was really wronged, and he had tried his best to treat Mrs. Chen, but this woman would doubt and question her every time.

"I'm so unworthy of your trust?" Gu Dagui asked.

Mrs. Chen laughed and said, "Why, I trust you the most."

Gu Dagui hehe: "I believe you ghost."

She obviously didn't believe him, and was afraid that he would raise a child outside, so she kept holding on to the family's money and didn't let him have any money at all.As soon as he has silver in his hand, she will go crazy.

However, Gu Dagui understands why Chen is like this. To put it bluntly, she is afraid. Growing up in the old Chen's family, she has developed an unreliable temperament and only thinks that money is the most reliable, so she holds on to money.

"I know you're uncomfortable, but that's all in the past. Now you have a man, a son, and a lot of money, and your life is safe and secure, so you don't have to be afraid of anything anymore." Gu Dagui shook his hand. Holding Chen's hand, she said: "I have never disliked you because of your natal family's affairs. If I really disliked you, when the Chen family came to make trouble, they would have divorced you with a letter of divorce."

The Chen family was much more troubled than it is now. The Chen family wiped their necks, and the father was very angry. He forced him to divorce his wife and even kicked the Chen family out of the house.

But he felt that this girl was too pitiful. Since he had already married her, he should treat her well... In the end, the matter of the old Chen family was resolved, and they also fought and fought for more than ten years.

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she burst into tears, crying heartbreakingly, and made Gu Dagui cry, and comforted her: "Don't cry, the matter is over, and our family will be fine in the future. With Mr. Xu taking action, the Chen family is..."

"Yes, I don't want to cry anymore. It's not worth it to urinate for the old Chen's family." Mrs. Chen didn't listen to Gu Dagui's words at all, she pulled Gu Dagui up with a tear, and seeing that he was still crying, she said disgustedly: "Really?" It's useless, what are you crying for a big man?"

Gu Dagui wanted to strangle her to death: "I cried with you, do you still have a conscience?!"

"All right, all right, I was wrong." Mrs. Chen laughed and said, "Let's go, hurry up and eat, but I'm starving to death."

He pushed Gu Dagui out of the living room door and walked towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Mammy Cao had asked people to prepare meals and warmed them in the pot. There were vegetables and meat, which were very rich, and they were all gifts from the neighbors.

Mrs. Chen was very hungry, and she ate in big mouthfuls. Gu Dagui said, "This time, we are the ones who harmed Brother Xing and owed favors to Xu's family. We waited for Brother Xing to be engaged and married to the girl of the Xu family." At that time, we have to triple the congratulatory gift."

"Three times!" To be honest, the Chen family was very distressed, but the Xu family did help her family a lot, and she took over the troubles of the Chen family, so she was reluctant for a while, and nodded in agreement: "Success, by the way." You can do what you say."

……

The next day, the master of Gu Zhifu sent a servant to Gu Jin'an's house and asked about what happened last night.

Chen Zangjin and Chen Zanggu were stopped by Mrs. Chen in a mule cart in the evening and taken away in the street, and some people saw it. After hearing about it, the ancient magistrate was afraid that something might happen, so he sent someone to ask about it.

What Gu Jinan told Gu Dexing to his servants was: "It's nothing serious, it's just a group of people who want to fight the autumn wind, it's been resolved, let them go back to the countryside."

After hearing this, the servants told the teacher and the Gu Zhifu about the remarks.

After hearing this, Gu Zhifu only said: "It's fine, there's no need to investigate any more."

It's just a group of relatives who fight against the wind. As long as they don't make trouble in the open, damage the reputation of the rookie and make other prefects laugh at him, the ancient prefect will not say anything. Now there are things that make him even more troublesome.

The imperial decree of the emperor has come down, and their Jianghuai prefectures will increase taxes. Originally, the summer tax, autumn tax, population tax, and corvee were already heavy enough, but now they have to increase the tax again, or double it!
When the ancient magistrate learned of the emperor's new order, he was immediately stunned. Having been an official for many years, he was already a veteran, and he felt a surge of fear... But don't encounter any disasters, otherwise, the common people will definitely die. Lifted the boat of Da Chu.

But before the boat turned over, the Gu Zhifu could only follow the emperor's order, calling the masters, Tang Tongpan and the new Su Tongzhi, and told them about the tax increase.

Su Tongzhi is in charge of these things, frowned and said: "Master Zhifu, I'm afraid this is not easy to handle."

Gu Zhifu: "This is an imperial decree personally issued by the emperor, and it must be done if it is difficult."

Pointing to Tang Tong again, he said: "Master Tang will help you. If anyone dares to disobey, he will be arrested."

Tang Tongpan's face was a little stiff, he shook his head and said, "My lord, there are only some yamen servants and prison soldiers under my command. If there are too many people on the other side, I will not be able to be an official."

This sentence is alluding to: This incident may cause some people to fall into the grass or throw up the poles. At that time, there will be hundreds, thousands, or thousands of people making troubles, and his people will not be able to handle it at all.

Gu Zhifu said: "This government also knows that it is embarrassing for the two adults, but this is the emperor's order, we will die if we don't do it... How about this, this government will greet General Guo who is guarding the army camp in Fucheng, and ask him to send troops to help , even if there is a disturbance, it can be quickly suppressed."

He also said: "Our He'an Mansion is considered good, and the people are relatively rich. The prefectures and counties near Zhongzhou are not so lucky, they are very poor. If something happens, it will happen first in their places, and if someone stands in the way, we can do it. rest assured."

When there is chaos in some places, the capital will send troops over, and they will also show kindness to places like them that are not in chaos. Even if the taxes are not uniform, the capital should not blame them.

Both Tang Tongpan and Su Tongzhi recognized this metaphor, and nodded with a smile, "Your Excellency is right."

but……

Su Tongzhi asked, "Is the anti-military tax too high?"

The poll tax is already being collected, but the anti-army tax requires one tael per person, which is one tael per person, not per household, which is outrageous.

Nowadays, there are many families with several generations living under the same roof. There are dozens of people in the family, and they cannot afford to pay the anti-army tax alone. It is simply depriving people of life.

After hearing this, Gu Zhifu looked at Su Tongzhi, and said in a cold voice, "Master Su, speak carefully."

Whether it is high or not, whether it should be accepted or not, this kind of words are not something they can say, this is the order of the emperor, they just follow it.

Su Tongzhi's expression changed, and he hurriedly said: "Master Zhifu, forgive me, this is a slip of the tongue."
