The whole family crosses to farm

Chapter 76
It's just that in his opinion, this is impossible to set up by the robbers, but everyone is traveling together, so it's better not to cause trouble.

Lin Jiale is used to being kind to others. When he was about to rush over, he glanced sideways and saw a small head coming out of the man's arms, looking at their group of carriages rushing away.

Thinking of his daughter involuntarily, Lin Jiale couldn't bear it for a while, the carriage was about to pass by, he pulled off the bag containing dry food, water, and sore medicine beside him, and threw it aside.

After this period of time, when a group of people were lighting a fire and cooking in an open area, the companions said Lin Jiale: "Brother Lin, what did you throw away just now?"

"Eat," Lin Jiale said with a smile, "my wife packed several bags when I came out."

"What if it's a robber pretending to be it." A short fat man said dissatisfiedly, "If we are stopped there, our payment will be wiped off."

Lin Jiale said: "Impossible, if it is a robber, how can they put people on the side of the road? You have to set up roadblocks in the middle of the road."

Liu Yuanfu, who has a good relationship with Lin Jiale, said with a smile: "Brother Lin has more experience traveling abroad than us, and he can tell if there is any problem at a glance. Come, come, eat quickly, we have to reach the next one before dark Where's the apartment?"

Another person said: "It must be no problem. When Brother Lin threw the package just now, I also took a look. The shoes on that person's feet looked like official boots. Maybe Brother Lin is still in trouble for a nobleman. It was a great help."

The more wealthy a person is in business, the more he believes in the saying that many friends and multiple paths lead to good returns. For a while, the topic turned to the things that some business friends encountered when they went out to do business.

In the dimly lit mountain, the man ate some dry food, applied stick medicine to the wound on his left leg, tied his youngest son on his back, got up with a stick, and walked straight into the deeper jungle.

The orange-red sunset light dragged the shadow of the carriage long, Fang Xiaocao drove the ox cart into the entrance of the village amidst the jokes of a villager, and when he passed the big mulberry tree in the village, he squatted with the villagers in front of a house on the side of the road Chen Yaoguang, who was talking, stood up and said with a smile, "Siblings and sisters of the Lin family, are you back?"

"Yes, is the village chief okay?" Fang Xiaocao saw that the village chief was waiting for her here, so he stopped the ox cart and asked.

Chen Yaoguang smiled, and said without guilt at all: "Has the five acres of wasteland that your family bought have been developed?"

"Yes," Fang Xiaocao nodded.

"In this way, I just remembered today that you still have to pay taxes for a year," Chen Yaoguang said, and the eyes of the surrounding villagers were all on him, but he completely ignored him and continued, "That land is full of people For the good land in the mountains and forests, the subordinate Fu in the county has long said that even if no one grows this kind of land, it should be treated as good land. When you bought it earlier, I forgot that it was given as inferior land. You, there is a difference of four or five taels of silver per mu of land. I will go to the county to inquire about the situation tomorrow, and if it is not possible, you will have to make up for the difference."

"Really?" This was coaxing herself to be a fool, Fang Xiaocao said: "Old Lin is not at home, why don't you tell him when he comes back."

Chen Yaoguang wondered: "No, the county is waiting."

"Father is not here, so I am the pillar." Lin Chunxing got out of the car at this time, saluted Chen Yaoguang, and said, "Uncle village chief, please write down the money we need to make up and the taxes we need to teach. I will pay for it tomorrow." Take the note and go directly to the county to hand it in."

Chen Yaoguang's face darkened in an instant, and he looked at Fang Xiaocao and said, "The Lin family, without you raising children like this, the adults just interrupted indiscriminately. A few days ago, my wife came home and told me that your daughter is like this. I don't believe it."

"Looking at it now, hum."

At this moment, no one in the village could tell that Chen Yaoguang was deliberately taking advantage of Lin Er's absence to embarrass his wife and children.

It's just that the relationship with the Lin family is not that much, and there are several men standing around, but they don't say anything at this time.

Lin Chunxing wasn't afraid of Chen Yaoguang's cold face, and said, "I'm the son of the Lin family. I'm telling you business. Why is the village chief talking about children? He's still talking about my sister. How old is she?"

"Okay, okay," Chen Yaoguang said angrily, "Wait, I'll open the note for you right away, don't think about losing a penny."

Not to mention that the subordinate Fu in the county was an acquaintance of his. Even if he wasn't, who would have any reason not to give it away with money?

I don't know that the gate of the yamen opens to the south, so why don't you come in if you don't have money?
"You guys just wait here," Chen Yaoguang said again after taking a few steps.

Finally, a man from the Chen family couldn't stand it anymore, and said: "He is a child who is not sensible, third brother, forget it, if you have anything to do, wait until Lin Er returns home."

Chen Yaoguang glared at him, and said sternly: "No, today's matter really has to be done today." Putting these words aside, he went straight home.

As soon as he left, two women beside him persuaded Fang Xiaocao: "Don't be tough with him, take some eggs as an apology later, pay a few more money, and this matter will be over."

Fang Xiaocao smiled, this was the first time Chen Yaoguang used his position as village chief to bully their family, if he endured it, there would be a second and third time in the future.

----

Mrs. Liu is embroidering hijabs in her house. People in Yuetan Town entrusted her to embroider them. One can get [-] Wen. The daughters-in-law in the village are very envious of Mrs. Liu's embroidery skills.

"Why did you go home so early?" Hearing the sound of footsteps, Mrs. Liu glanced outside.

Chen Yaoguang was still angry, he was about to talk when he came in, but he saw other people in the room, he turned around and went out without saying hello.

Mrs. Liu let out the two women who often came to find her to work with her, and then came out to the main room and asked: "What's the matter, who are you showing your face down."

Chen Yaoguang looked at her and said, "Isn't that kid from the Lin family asking me for a tax bill? I really don't know what background their Lin family has in the county?"

"Then write him one," Liu said, "what's the matter, can he take a note to the county government to sue you? Is the county government run by his family?"

In this matter, unless Lin Jiale talks to the county officials, they will pay the deposit.

Having said that, if there is such a strong relationship in the county, how can the family move to the countryside?
Just like Lin Jiale, he is either farming or doing business, and the people he can know are limited.And even if they already knew the county officials, it would not be embarrassing enough to find them for such a few cents.

After careful analysis, Chen Yaoguang found a pen, sat down at the table and began to write.

The main room where Chen Yaoguang's old lady lived, the old lady came out and asked, "What are you two doing?"

Mrs. Liu said impatiently, "What do you care about so much?"

Chen Yaoguang was still very filial to his old lady, but he didn't dare to call his daughter-in-law, so he turned his head and said, "Don't worry about it, just go and rest."

The old lady Chen scolded: "It's not easy to move outside. Why do you have to rule people? Live a good life. When will this village chief be tossed away, and when will I be happy."

"It's okay, it's okay," Chen Yaoguang said, his subordinates had already written the note, picked it up and blew it up, and thought that even if the Lin family brought her son to apologize later, when Lin Jiale came back, he would have to pay him well No way.

Mrs. Liu was very disgusted with Chen Yaoguang's old lady, she rolled her eyes, turned and went back to the house.

After a while, Chen Yaoguang came in and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"

"What to eat, I'm full of gas," Liu said, "When will your old lady move away? I will eat a few mouthfuls of food when I see her."

Chen Yaoguang, who has always been obedient to Mrs. Liu, turned ugly when she heard this, but Mrs. Liu was not afraid at all. Although she knew that Mrs. Liu was very filial, she knew the bottom line.

"You six brothers, you only live in someone else's house for a month, and you live in our house for the rest of the time. Why don't you eat with our house?" Mrs. Liu continued to mutter.

Chen Yaoguang was already upset today, and he said in a bad tone when he heard the words: "Why didn't you say that when the family was separated, my elder brother, as the eldest son, also shared the family property with us equally? And I, the village head, didn't my father still exist?" Even if I don't say these things, my mother raised me, and now she is old, shouldn't I raise her?"

As soon as Liu took the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, he threw it into the basket again, and said, "Did I not let you raise your mother? Where are your four or five brothers? Why should you stay at my house?"

"Your house?" Chen Yaoguang snorted coldly, but did not continue.

Mrs. Liu was very powerful, and asked: "Why, isn't it my family? I will give birth to you, so can't I say a word about this family?"

"Stop arguing," Mrs. Chen's voice sounded outside, "Don't be too strong, the third family, you will grow old one day. The son I raised is indeed your man now, but he is still my son, he You should raise a few of you, but I should even more. Don't feel unbalanced, if I don't want to go to other sons' homes and only live in yours, there will be no day when you kick me out."

Mrs. Liu pointed to the outside and said: "Chen Yaoguang, listen, this is your old lady. Today she stopped pretending and was arguing with me. When you are not at home on weekdays, you talk too much about me. .”

I don't want Mrs. Chen to be old, but her ears are really good. She immediately answered: "I'm at my own house, what should I pretend? You're an old woman who doesn't do anything. My son will take care of everything you eat, drink, and mess around." , why are you so good? Put all the embroidery money in your pocket and take it back to your natal family, and my son earns all the food and drink, and you still eat noble?"

"It's fine on weekdays. I don't care about your provocations here and there. Now you still dare to pick a man to govern the family who moved here in the county. You are the queen mother, and everyone has to support you?"

As soon as the call ended, Liu's face turned red with anger, and she got up to pack her things and go back to her mother's house.

Chen Yaoguang couldn't persuade her, so he had to go out to persuade his old lady, "Stop saying a few words, this matter is my own responsibility, don't rely on her for everything."
