Chapter 39
When Qilang saw that there was something delicious, his eyes lit up, and he rubbed the hands of the flies, drooling from his mouth.

"Wow, it smells so good, thank you sister-in-law!"

After speaking, he picked up his thigh and gnawed it, which was called a wolf.

"Hey, take it easy and don't choke, there are still a lot here, you can eat enough."

After arranging for my uncle, Xia Xiaoqiao poured a large bowl of chicken soup and gave it to Lu Jingyuan, "This chicken soup is best for your body, drink more."

Lu Jingyuan glanced at her uncomfortably, reached out to take the chicken soup and said awkwardly, "Thank you."

After speaking, he took a sip absently.

Immediately afterwards, he was stunned, and then took one bite after another, and a bowl of chicken soup went into his stomach after a while.

This chicken soup is moderately salty, not lacking in the rich meaty aroma of the chicken soup, but also has a lightness. It warms the stomach when you drink it, which is a comfort.

This is almost the most delicious chicken soup he has ever tasted.

“Excellent taste!”

After drinking, Lu Jingyuan let out a heartfelt exclamation.

Seeing this, Xia Xiaoqiao smiled and said: "You can drink more if you like. Also, this vegetable dumpling tastes good and is good for the stomach. You and Qilang can eat more."

After speaking, he served another bowl, and he didn't forget to pick up two vegetable dumplings.

"It's delicious. This vegetable dumpling is the best vegetable dumpling I've ever eaten. Sister-in-law, I want to eat another one."

Qilang eats greasy mouth twists, and at the moment he is licking his fingers while looking at her, with a look that is still unfinished.

"Here, but this is the last one. If you have a weak spleen and stomach, be careful of food accumulation."

The little guy nodded vigorously, and Lu Chunhua on the side didn't need Xia Xiaoqiao to be polite. She grabbed the vegetable dumpling and started to eat it. Seeing that it was bottoming out, it was all due to her, and the chicken was even more rude.

Who made this meat so delicious that he wanted to swallow his own tongue?

Xia Xiaoqiao had a disgusted look on her face, but she could understand that life in Lu's family had been difficult for the past few years, let alone eating meat, even during the Chinese New Year.

So she didn't say anything, but brought Dabao and Erbao over, and fed them a half bowl of chicken soup, and she was full herself.

Here they have stewed chicken and chicken soup, what they eat is called Huanshi.

But Xitoulu's house is a bit miserable.

After returning home, the cold pot and the cold stove did not even have anything warm to eat.

Mrs. Liu really went back to her natal family in a fit of anger, and her eldest son chased after her even more uselessly, and the younger son immediately blew up the temple when he learned that the [-] mu of land had been allocated.

"Father, mother, what are you thinking? They actually allocated more than [-] acres of mountain land to the second room? Our family only has a lot of fertile land. Also, this Lu Jingyuan really gets older as he grows up, so it's all right to go to study. , now I have the nerve to divide the family property, why? No, I don't agree with this matter, I'll go find—"

boom--

Before he could finish speaking, Mr. Lu slapped the table with a dark face.

"Why? Why do you say? I gave it all, there is so much nonsense, you have to agree if you don't agree, your elder brother didn't say anything, what are you talking about here, shut up."

The old man Lu was very upset, what happened to the twenty acres of mountain land?
It was only after he had exhausted his good words that he fought for it. He stepped on the ground because of this, but it was good for the youngest son, and he even complained. It really pissed him off.

"father?"

Seeing that it didn't make sense, Lu Laosi hurriedly turned his head to look at Mrs. Lu and said, "Mother, don't you persuade me?"

Mrs. Lu tugged at his sleeve with an embarrassed expression, "Fourth brother, forget it!"

"Forget it? Why? Why forget it? Mother?"

"Okay, mother, what mother? It's useless to call the heavenly king and Laozi here. Hmph, if it weren't for your mother, how did you think that twenty acres of land got into the hands of that brat? Look at what she has done. "

After speaking, he gave Mrs. Lu a hard look, and threw the deed of sale directly in his face.

After reading the above content, Lu Lao Si frowned, but still said unconvinced: "My mother is wrong, but there are no parents in the world who are not right. If he doesn't care about family affection so much, he is not filial. So what if he sues the patriarch?"

"How? What do you think? Just what your mother did is enough for me to divorce him a hundred times."

The old man Lu was so angry that his liver hurt, "If it weren't for the fear that she would delay the future of your elder brother and your nephew if you divorced, why do you think I still have this poisonous woman?"

When he returned to his own home, he was not afraid of tearing his face. Anyway, everyone knew that he had lost all face in his life.

As soon as Lu Laosi heard this, he said, "After all, isn't it because of the elder brother's family? So you would rather use the twenty acres of land to make peace with others, isn't it because you are afraid of blocking the way of my elder brother's scientific research? , He has been in the exam for half his life, and his son has been admitted to the Tongsheng, but he is still a Tongsheng, when will such a day be the end?"

The Fourth Lu immediately became fussy, and the old man's nose turned crooked in anger.

"Are you blaming me for giving the second room [-] mu of land, or are you blaming me for not divorcing your mother? You evil son, what do you want to do?"

The old man Lu was angry, and the old lady Lu understood at this time, and looked at her youngest son who had been in disbelief since childhood, "Fourth, what do you mean? I have been hurting you for so many years in vain? How could you Treat me like this? You are an unfilial son, you are an idiot, I beat you to death today and got me."

After finishing speaking, he picked up the soles of his shoes and greeted his son, but Lao Si Lu knew that he had said something wrong, so he hurriedly corrected him: "Mother, it's nothing, how could I have such an idea, I'm just angry but dad is partial"

"Father, he thinks about the elder brother's family all the time, but why don't you think about us brothers? The second elder brother left early, leaving behind a whole house of children, but Jing Yuan managed to win the exam by himself, and he was a scholar in one go. It doesn’t cost the family a single penny, but on the contrary, it has filled a lot of income for the family, at least dozens of taels of silver in the past three years, but where did all the money go? Didn’t it all go into the pocket of the long house?”

Mrs. Lu burst into tears when she heard the words, and became even more ruthless in her attack, "You debt collector, is it possible that my mother usually gives you paper money?"

Lu Laosi hugged the mouse string, "Mother, how much money do you have? There is no Jing Yuan in the family, who will pay for the twice-yearly corvee? I heard from the villagers that the corvee will start soon this spring." gone."

As soon as these words fell, the Lu family was stunned.

"Corvée?"

The house leak happened to rain all night, not only did not get any benefits today, but lost [-] acres of mountain land, not to mention, and now there is bad news, this day is as exciting as a roller coaster.

I finally know why Lu Laosi is making a fuss.

There are laws in the Dagan Dynasty, and the common people have to serve twice a year for free, including forced service, miscellaneous service, and military service, depending on the needs of the court, but no matter what kind of service is not done by humans.

Every year, the villagers who go to serve corvee in the village have to peel their skins if they don’t die. In the past, the second house was the head of the family, and the second brother always came forward. Later, the third brother took over when the second brother was gone, but it was only a year that he almost died. leave it there.

Later, Lu Jingyuan struggled to be admitted as a scholar. Not only was his family exempted from corvee, but the court gave him money every month, and he was exempted from paying taxes after the autumn harvest. After another three years, he got used to the good life, and suddenly found that he had to go Serving corvee, can Lu Laosi not panic?

Not only he panicked, but the rest of the Lu family also panicked. At this time, they regretted even more why they had to sweep the second room out?

Why can't you live a good life and make things difficult for yourself?

As long as Lu Jingyuan is disabled, he will be disabled, as long as he is alive, as long as he is alive, then they will not lose a penny, but now he is fine.

The Lu family members were frowning, and their intestines were about to be ruined.

At the same time, he hated the long room.

And Lu Jingming also knew that he had caused trouble, and he didn't dare to say anything when his parents were not at home. At the same time, he secretly made up his mind that he must come back this year as a scholar, and he must prove it to Lu Jingyuan, and he can do it himself.

Lu Jingming gritted his teeth and turned on the lamp to read at night, but unfortunately he couldn't keep going after three days.

You must know that it was not so easy to test talents in ancient times. How many people remained a child after taking the test for a lifetime, not to mention how difficult it is to write stereotyped essays. Everyone's comments
If you don't have a persistent heart, it won't work at all.

And how could Lu Jingming suffer such a hardship?

Of course, this is a story.

 Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival, I wish you all a healthy and healthy Dragon Boat Festival in advance!
