son-in-law

Chapter 469
It had just rained, and the rammed earth road in Beishi was a bit muddy.

A slender young man, wearing a black scarf and a blue round-neck gown, looked like a white-faced scholar.Beside him was a woman with a strange walking posture.Look at the woman's clothes, a coarse cloth double-breasted shirt, a shirt with narrow sleeves lining, a red coarse cloth dress on the lower body, which is only lightly tied at the waist with a cloth rope, and a pair of ordinary red pointed boots on the feet.

Judging by her attire, she should be a commoner daughter-in-law.A suit of clothes only costs two to three hundred dollars, but she is extra careful when walking, raising her legs high, landing her feet lightly, avoiding every puddle.From time to time, she pulled up her long skirt for fear of getting wet.Putting down the long skirt, she would put both hands in front of her body, walking with airs like an aristocratic woman.Pedestrians passing by couldn't help but glance at her, cursing in their hearts: Isn't it just a little white, what kind of nobleman is pretending to be poor?
After the rain, the sky cleared, and various stalls gradually appeared on both sides of the streets of Beishi.Vendors and street performers came out one after another.Stores on both sides of the street lit their lanterns one after another, and the world in front of them suddenly became brighter.When a group of children stepped on the water and ran out, the noise on the street suddenly became louder.

The little daughter-in-law felt that there were many people on the street, and she seemed a little scared, or disgusted.Whenever someone approached her, she would subconsciously hide to the side, and at this time the man beside her would hold her hand and stride towards a more lively place.

The plaques were densely packed there, the crowd was surging, and the tall young daughter-in-law suddenly looked anxious and couldn't help looking behind her.She seemed to be looking for someone.He was relieved when he saw clearly that the three swordsmen were not very far behind him.Tang Ling'er would not be like Tan Qin'er, when she was with Su Yu, the two of them encouraged each other.For Tang Linger, if there were bandits, she would be even more worried that something would happen to her man.She will run with her men, and deliver the bandits to the swordsmen.

Seeing two children walking out of the small restaurant, the adults asked the children to wait at the door, and the adults turned around to do something.And the two eight or nine-year-old children were scrambling to eat the food in their hands.The two children hold the food together with four hands, you take a bite, I take a bite, chew and swallow quickly.Hastily took another bite, for fear of eating less than the other child.

Tang Ling'er had never seen that kind of food before, so she asked curiously, "Jinfeng, what are those two children fighting for?"

"Pancake roll with scallions."

"Is it delicious?"

"You'll know after a while."

Su Yu really bought a roll for the princess, but the princess disliked the store's dirty apron and refused to eat more, just took a bite and stopped eating.Su Yu was not hungry, so he gave the remaining burritos to the two children.

This trip with the princess, Su Yu suddenly wanted to understand why Emperor Jin Hui would say that famous saying: "Why don't you eat minced meat?" However, he did not know what life was like for the poor.It's like people in back alleys, they may never have seen in their life that the son of a rich man gave millions or even tens of millions to a doucai prostitute once.

For the poor, if they haven't been in the compound of a wealthy family, they have never seen the world.But for the princess with golden branches and jade leaves, she has never seen the things in the back alleys, in fact, it can also be said that she has never seen the world.Maybe she had glimpsed it from a distance before, maybe she heard it, but she had never really seen it up close.

When she saw two tall and burly men wrestling shirtless, she was so shocked that she hid behind Su Yu.She knew it was a street performer's trick, but she felt thrilling.Later, I went to see the monkey show. The monkey lay down on the ground like a human and kowtowed to the guests for reward.The artist who played the monkey found that Tang Ling'er was good-looking, so he brought the monkey in front of her, scaring her so much that she hid behind Su Yu again.Seeing her hiding, the monkey chased and approached her, so she kicked her.It also annoyed the monkey and nearly bit her.The artist who played the monkey had quick eyesight and quick hands, and pulled the monkey back.But it still made the princess scream.

She screamed, and suddenly three people appeared behind her.Immediately afterwards several men in black appeared, they were monks in black robes from the Honghei Temple.But soon they found that nothing happened, and quickly hid it.This scene was seen by the monkey performer. At that time, more than a dozen strong men stared at him viciously, which frightened him for a long time.

After going this way, the Princess feels very fresh.After shopping for more than half an hour, she didn't say she wanted to go back.

Su Yu said: "There are still a few lively alleys over there, but it's too late today, let's come back another day."

Tang Ling'er seemed to have more to say, but she also nodded.Suddenly a carriage passed by quickly, splashing mud.Su Yu pulled her, but still couldn't dodge it, splashing onto the princess's red dress.

The princess was annoyed and stared, but she just watched the car go away, but she didn't know how to curse.

Su Yu said: "Grab the mud and throw him!"

Before Tang Linger could recover, Su Yu had already stuffed her with a ball of mud the size of an egg.Su Yu gathered another ball of mud and threw it towards the car.It hit the car with a crackling sound, and there was a puddle of mud stains.The princess also mustered up her courage and threw the mud in her hand, but she didn't throw it very far.Catch and toss.

One Beach, Two Beaches, Three Beaches...

The carriage stopped suddenly, and a dude lifted the curtain, poked his head out of the window, and cursed loudly: "I'm so stupid, I want to die!"

Suddenly a group of people stopped the car, grabbed the dude by the neck with one hand, dragged him out of the car, and pushed his head into the mud.

……

……

Ear seed, Dou Zhisi.

The Tang family has tens of thousands of acres of land in Gyeonggi-do, and arranges people to cultivate it every year. This is also one of the important sources of income for Qinghuafang.Tang Ling'er sent someone to check the cultivation situation, and learned that many cultivated lands were fooled, and good fields also produced the effect of middle fields.For this reason, the princess was furious and held an agricultural meeting.

The princess decided to punish some people, including the son of the family elder.

After Tang Linger finished the meeting, it was already evening.As soon as I got home, I smelled the smell of roasted lamb.No need to ask, it must be Su Yu roasting sheep in the backyard.It is said that this time he roasted three lambs, because Su Yu felt that everyone was not full before.Many little maids had already predicted that there would be a barbecue feast in the evening, so they kept their stomachs during the day and only waited for dinner in the evening.

Su Yu felt sorry for the maid, so he simply satisfied these greedy little guys.

Smelling the smell of roasted lamb, the princess frowned for some reason, and then she went directly to the second floor.She was still the same, she had to take a shower and change clothes when she came back from going for a walk.

As soon as the washed princess put on a thin inner coat, Su Yu walked up with Xiao Huan.The princess does not eat offal or fatty meat, but only likes a large piece of lamb leg that is slightly charred.Su Yu prepared a plate for her and brought dipping sauces.But the princess just smelled the smell of sheep and suddenly felt sick.

Hu Rong immediately said: "Hurry up and take it, the princess is happy, I can't eat these."

Lao Diao Si said anxiously and with joy on his face, pushed Xiao Huan who was carrying the plate out to the door, and told Xiao Huan to go to the dining hall to get some light food for the princess .He also said that this was the pulse that he asked Taiyi Wang to personally give to the princess.

Su Yu smiled and sat next to the princess.

At this moment, Tang Linger said: "Jinfeng, what did you eat when you took me to Beishi that day? I only ate one bite at the time, but now that I think about it, I think it suits my taste."

Su Yu turned her head and shouted to Xiao Huan: "The county chief eats pancakes and green onions!"

"What?" Xiao Huan ran up again: "Xiao Huan didn't hear what Jun Ma Ye said clearly."

"Pancake roll with scallions."

Xiao Huan blinked, her expression hesitated: "...No way?"

"You just go and buy it."

Happy to be a father, Su Yu is in a good mood.But the princess didn't seem very happy, and even a little nervous.She was always worried that she would die in childbirth.Perhaps it was because when she was approving funds, she often heard the news of dying in childbirth, which left a shadow in her heart.

The princess was nervous because she was afraid of death, and she held Su Yu's hand, with a look of grievance on her face, but she didn't say anything.

Su Yu smiled and said: "Let's not talk about this. I heard that this meeting made Linger unhappy again? Uncle Wu came to see you just now, hoping to intercede with Tang Hong. Why, Linger really Do you want to remove Tang Hong from his post?"

Tang Ling'er said: "He is in charge of the northern district, but the grain in the northern district is the worst. It is too sparse and wastes good land. This will reduce the production of a lot of grain, and millions will be gone. How can I let him off lightly? "

Su Yu shook his head: "If you want me to say, this is still a problem of the system, not a problem of people."

"You mean to blame me?"

"I didn't blame you. The Tang family has been arranged like this for almost 100 years. Although the land of the Tang family is increasing, the output has not increased much. The main reason is that people who work on the land feel the same. I actually think that those lands should be leased to each household, and half of the production should be rewarded to them."

"What did you say? Give them half?"

"Correct."

The princess felt that Su Yu had made a bad idea, so he withdrew his hand and said, "It's not enough to take it all back, so why not give them half?"

Su Yu smiled, and said in a calm manner: "As long as those lands are allocated to each account, they will be profitable, and they must be highly motivated to produce. In the future, you don't need to send people to watch over them when they farm. Just keep an eye on the population of each family, and distribute the land according to the labor force. Although you only receive half of the income, it is not half of the current income. Due to the increase in production enthusiasm, the output will inevitably increase. Then the half you receive should be the previous year About three-quarters of that. Although it is still a quarter less than before. But the rice they collect is only allowed to be sold in the warehouse of the Tang family. By then, the source of rice will be stable, and your family will not be afraid of food shortages. , and the price of harvested rice is up to you. Since the quantity is large enough, you still earn in the end.”

Tang Linger thought for a while: "Then why don't I do this?"

"What are your plans?"

"I distributed the land to them, and rewarded them according to the food production."

Su Yu pulled the princess's hand into his own again, and patted it: "It's not impossible, but it's a bit off. According to my method, the farmers feel that they are farming for themselves. But according to your method, They think they are planting land for other people's homes. There is still a gap in enthusiasm. Believe me, according to my method, you are like a charter woman, saving worry and effort. As for Tang Hong and the young masters, we can't afford to offend them now. After all, you still count on his father to support you as an elder."

Tang Linger sighed: "If I hadn't considered this, I would have kicked him out a long time ago.
