Chapter 76

Zhou Yu looked at the sky, "They're not unreasonable people."

Yang Xi knew that, so she was especially worried. She was deeply afraid of what would happen. They didn't know each other well here, no, they also knew the local snakes like the dart shop. Thinking of this, Yang Xi felt a lot more relieved.

After another quarter of an hour, Yang San came back, and several of them were slightly injured.

Yang Xi was worried, "What happened?"

Yang San was punched at the corner of the mouth, and now it's blue, "We dressed like thugs, unfortunately, we were mistaken, and we were beaten up."

Zhou Xiaodi is not as good as Yang San, and his face is blue and purple, "It's unreasonable, hiss."

Yan Bing's eyes were also blue, "Bah, how many taels am I missing?"

If they beat them, they lost a few taels of silver. If it wasn't for the death of the city, I really wanted to give these bastards a few knives!

Zhou Yu looked at the miserable appearance of several people, and showed no sympathy at all, "I think you are too relaxed, let you join in the fun, you should!"

Yang San didn't say a word. They were indeed relaxed. When they were about to reach their goal, their spirits were no longer tense.

Yang Xi confirmed that it was only a minor injury, "Eat first."

Yang San and a few were starving. They had a fight and their stomachs were already empty. They stared at the food on the table and groaned in their stomachs.

After eating, Zhou Yu and other people took the medicine and wrote a math problem for a few people. Even Yan Bing had it. "I think you are too busy. Since you have the energy, you can solve these problems."

Yang San has a headache when he sees math. He doesn't know how his brother-in-law's brain grows. The math problems are particularly difficult. He can't cheat even if he buys a book about math, "Brother-in-law."

Zhou Yu's tone was flat, "Do you think ten questions are few? Well, I'll give you ten more questions later."

Zhou Xiaodi covered Yang San's mouth, his brother was angry!

Yang Xi waited for Yang San to return to the room, "Now he looks like a teenager."

Zhou Yu snorted, "their skins are loose."

He didn't believe that he was mistaken for no reason, and the boys didn't tell the truth.

Yang Xi frowned, "It's good to be lively."

Zhou Yu, "Daughter-in-law, you have ten questions."

Yang Xi raised his eyebrows, "What a question."

"Let them have a long memory."

Yang Xi smiled, "Okay."

When the group left Yizhou, they were not in such a hurry. After passing through Lizhou, it was Ruizhou. The greenery was in sight. Without the bleakness of the northern winter, the mood was also lively because of the greenery.

The children laughed more, and they were not restricted to watch the scenery. The little ones were curious about everything and kept asking questions all the way.

Ziheng also kept asking questions, "Father, why is the south not cold? Why is there a distinction between north and south?"

Zhou Yu didn't fool his son, he drew a map and talked about the different climates, trying his best to let his son understand.

Zhou Xiaodi was also stunned, "Brother, how do you know so much?"

Zhou Yu, "In the future, read more books, read more, and understand more."

Zhou Xiaodi thought that there was no change in the family, and the big brother kept the books every day. He also thought about the big brother's words, but, "Brother, it is very difficult for me to read more books now, the books are too expensive."

Zhou Yu, "."

Zhou Xiaodi laughed dryly, "Brother, I'll change Li Zheng to drive the car."

The journey went smoothly, and the days passed very quickly. There are only five days before the New Year. They finally arrived in Ruizhou. They did not rush to leave. They had to inquire about Ruizhou and choose a place to settle down.

The group stopped in Shui County, Ruizhou, ready to celebrate the New Year and set off after the new year.

The New Year has different meanings for several families. This is their new beginning. Several families rented courtyards in the county town to prepare for a lively New Year.

The upheaval in the north had little impact on the people of the south, and the New Year was very special. The counties in the south were densely populated, and there were many people coming and going in the county towns.

Yang Xi's family went shopping alone, and it was not easy for them to go all the way. It took almost four months from the capital to Ruizhou, and Yang Xi's belly was no longer small. Recently, it has grown very fast.

Zhou Yu carefully guarded his wife, and was wearing a simple safety rope. There were too many people, and he was afraid that his son would be lost.

Yang Xi pointed at the sugar man, "Let's go have a look."

Ziheng was the happiest, "Father, I want a candy man from sheep."

Zhou Yu asked his wife, "How about you?"

Yang Xi rolled his eyes, "I want a monkey."

A family of three lined up to buy a candy man. The candy man booth was very popular, and it took a while to queue up.

After buying the candy man, I went to buy a lot of cakes for the New Year, and finally bought the incense candles for ancestor worship, and the family of three returned to their residence.

When they came back late, several others came back.

Wu Shan came over to help carry things, and as he entered the room, he said, "I met a fellow with a northeastern accent today."

Yang Xi was a little tired and rubbed his lower back, thinking that the northeastern accent was too easy to identify.

Zhou Yu poured water for his daughter-in-law, sat down and said, "What news did Big Brother hear?"

Wu Shan said with a bitter face, "I inquired about the settlement fee, and I also inquired about the need to pay the population tax again."

Yang Xi asked, "How much is the settlement fee?"

Wu Shan stretched out a slap, "Five taels of silver."

Yang Xi calculated an account. The imperial court collected a lot of population tax. One was paid for birth, and the other was paid after the age of seven, so they had to pay two new population taxes, each of [-] yuan, which is Said that one person has to pay a tael of silver!
After settling down, people over the age of 14 have to pay a tax of 16 cash every year. It used to be paid after the age of [-], but it was changed three years ago to reduce the age.

No wonder Wu Shan has a bitter face, this is just the cost of settling down. Settling in need of accommodation, etc., every cost is not small!
