I heard my whole family are villains

Chapter 239
It is said that these people are very capable and filial.

However, thinking about Mu Zhuo, he has a very good reputation in Xixia Village, but the result is hard to describe.

Obviously, there is something wrong with the way the uncle raises the children.

Cousins, it may not be as good as the rumors say.

Of course, Mu Yao also admits that people have closeness and distance, because they are more familiar with and close to uncle and Mu Zhuo, they will subconsciously raise guard against cousins.

"This summer harvest, the boss and the others didn't help at all. I paid for the grain, and Mu Zhuo and I were responsible for the work."

"The results of it?"

"These four people just want to leave us food for a year, and sell the rest in shops."

"Tell me, can I agree?"

Mu Yao was silent, "Didn't the long house be sold in shops before?"

"They wanted to lose the share they gave to Mu Zhuo this time, thinking that he didn't do any work and shouldn't be lying at home picking up money."

"That's not right," Mu Yao was puzzled, "Mu Zhuo said that he doesn't own the shop, and all his things are in the village."

"The distribution is like this, but every year when the grain is sold, Mu Zhuo's share of the output will be taken out separately, and all the money from the sale will be given to him. This year, the boss and the others are only willing to pay the capital."

After listening, Mu Yao finally understood.

Although the shop doesn't have Mu Zhuo's share, he can put the produce from the field there and sell it on consignment to get more money. The brothers feel that they are at a disadvantage, so they don't want to do it this year.

To be honest, this approach is not wrong, after all, brothers have to settle accounts clearly.

However, it is also really sad.

After a long time, Mu Yao tentatively asked, "Uncle is not willing?"

"Why would I want to?" Patriarch Mu jumped angrily when he mentioned this, "I bought the store, and I planted the crops in the field. They pick up ready-made and dare to push things so much. They are used to it!"

"This group of rebels, that is, I can't lift a big knife now, or my legs will be interrupted by them!"

Breaking a leg with a big knife?
What is the logic?

Inability to vomit.

However, Mu Yao finally understood his uncle's heart knot, "Why don't you just separate the family completely, so as not to be so entangled like now, and get so angry that if you don't talk about it, there will be no peace in returning home."

"You think I don't want to?" Patriarch Mu raised his beard uncontrollably, "They just don't want to bear the corvee themselves!"

Mu Yao's expression cracked, "Didn't it mean that the business in the store is very good, so you won't be able to get all the money to pay the corvee?"

"A family with two liang, and a family of four get [-] liang a year. In addition, after the separation, they can't justify the fact that they can't just let Xiaowu work and can't hide from laziness. They're out of their minds!
Did you know that before Zhao Jia entered the conquest, they even planned to share the ten taels of silver this time, including the old man, each of them would pay one or two taels of silver. "

In the end, Patriarch Mu was already filled with grief and indignation.

Under the plastic family relationship, it is a bloody reality.

It is precisely because he understands this that he is so sad.

Asking myself that I didn't feel sorry for my son, but being used as a donkey for the production team, it's strange not to be sad.

After listening, Mu Yao remained silent for a long time.

He knew that every household had a hard-to-read scripture, but he didn't expect that the elders who were not very short of money would be so fussy.

It's understandable for Mu Zhuo to spread the money, but he refuses to give his father's share, isn't it too cold?
"Let's split up," Mu Yao rubbed the space between his brows, "This is too bad!"

Uncle's mood now is probably the same as when he heard that Nan Zai was going to change his father.

Wow, wow, wow, it's so hot in June, but it's like falling into a hole in the ice.

After listening, Patriarch Mu babbled and groaned for a long time, but did not dare to answer.

"Any other concerns?"

"You know Mu Zhuo's temper as a bastard. After a hundred years, if I don't have brothers to help me, it's hard to say whether I can survive."

"Let's not say that you can live for at least 20 years," Mu Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Let's just say that you have nothing to worry about when you are still with your cousins. When you pass away, you won't think about brotherhood!"

"I can leave a will. If they don't listen, they will be unfilial and will be shamed by the world. No one wants to go into the store to buy things."

hiss!
This is a ruthless man! !

Mu Yao looked at Patriarch Mu in surprise, and after a long time, he asked in bewilderment, "How can uncle be sure that Lord Yan is willing to give you time to talk?"

"That's right, foster father," Li Nian was also stunned, "Who can guarantee that this kind of thing will be done? Many of them left without mentioning it, let alone leaving a last word, I can't even react !"

"You two brats, you have to add trouble, don't you?" Patriarch Mu felt heartbroken, "Can't I just hold my breath?"

This is too unreliable, Mu Yao said helplessly, "You should have some confidence in Mu Zhuo, he is smart and knowledgeable about current affairs, he can make himself live well without relying on others."

"Let me think again."

Patriarch Mu hesitated.

Although he hates iron for not growing steel, and is angry that the four sons are too petty, but after all, they are their own, and they can't do anything to drive them out of the house.

"What about love?" Mu Yao decided to give up meddling in other people's affairs, "Besides talking about Mu Zhuo, I have another news to tell you."

"what news?"

"The county magistrate of Pingyang will be replaced, and there will be more vacancies in the Yamen. I am sure to send one or two people in."

"Brother Yao," Li Nian couldn't wait to speak as soon as Mu Yao's words fell, "Do you think I have a chance?"

"I have reserved a seat for you, but you have to follow Zhao Jiading and the others to read together. Even officials must be literate."

"I can!"

Li Nian nodded desperately, afraid of missing the opportunity, and asked weakly after a while, "Can there only be two? Or I'll forget it and let Zhao Jia and Ding Yi come."

"Zhao Jia wants to join the army, so he won't go the same way as you, but Ding Yi will most likely follow him."

After listening, Li Nian was stunned for a long time, and murmured absentmindedly, "So that's how it is!"

Sure enough, their brothers drifted away after all.

Mu Yao was not comforted.

He was in no mood and didn't know what to say.

Although Zhao Jia and Ding Yi didn't say anything, he could actually guess that they must have tested Li Nian about the northbound matter.

Mu Yao respects Li Nian's choice and will not feel any dissatisfaction because of it, but in comparison, he definitely values ​​Zhao Jia and Ding Yi more.

The two know that the road ahead is difficult, but they are willing to walk together. Even if the result is good, they cannot deny their courage and responsibility at the beginning.

"Who do you want the other spot to be?"

Patriarch Mu noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and quickly shifted the topic aside, "Mu Zhuo?"

"The sons of Zao officials cannot take the imperial examination, and Mu Zhuo is not suitable. Uncle, do you have someone to recommend?"

"Where are you going to put people?"

"When you first enter, you will work as a supervisor. After you get familiar with the official documents and procedures, it is not impossible to replace the master."

After listening, Patriarch Mu asked in disbelief, "Mu Yao, to be honest, what does the new county magistrate have to do with you?
Also, how are you so sure that this one will step down now?Could it be you again..."
