Small peasant girl

Chapter 14
It's okay to rob them, ordinary people, even Su Ju's family dares to rob them, and they are not afraid of the government coming to suppress the bandits.

Su Jinxia fell silent.

Su Jinyue, who was holding her net, continued to ask.

"I heard from the village chief that most of the officers and soldiers in the county government office have been transferred to support the Muzhou government. Without the officers and soldiers, the bandits will be rampant. Not only our village was robbed last night, Fangjia Village, Li Every village has been looted."

Mrs. Liu was also holding the net in her hands and didn't dare to stop, thinking about doing more to subsidize the family in the coming year.

Now that the family has no money and no food, it is estimated that life will be difficult after the new year.

Fang Family Village?Li Family Village?In Su Jinxia's memory, these two villages are not next to Sujia Village, and it doesn't matter.

Why did the bandits choose these three villages?
Su Jinxia was puzzled when she heard what Liu said.

"Mother, do Fangjiacun and Lijiacun also have Juren?"

"Fang Family Village has one, but Li Family Village does not, but there is a scholar."

Listening to Su Jinxia's question, Liu gave her a blank look.

But he still thought about it and answered her words.

"Sanya, do you mean that these bandits are rushing to Juren's house or the scholar's house?"

Su Jinyue stopped what she was doing, and thought about it with Liu Shi.

When Mrs. Liu said it, Su Jinyue quickly realized that Ju's family had a lot of food, so these bandits probably ran to their house, and then robbed the whole village to cover up their eyes and ears.

"It's probably because Ju's family has a lot of food, so it's convenient to rob them. By the way, we robbed our village. I'm afraid that Ju's family will guess that they are targeting them, and then go to the county government to sue."

Today's scholars and juren have the right to go directly to the county government to hand over papers to the county master.

It is estimated that the bandits did this because they did not dare to face them directly and annoyed them.

Although doing so angered their family, at least it wouldn't make them feel that these bandits were coming for them.

After Su Jinxia finished speaking, even Liu Shi understood.

In Qingshan Town, only Fangjia Village, Lijia Village and Sujia Village have Juren and Xiucai.

They have land and food in their hands.

As for the other villages, the land was rented from Yuanwailang, a member of the town.

Yuanwailang's family has a big business, so these bandits must not dare to rob him.

Then only these three villages can be found.

"Hey, forget it, we've robbed them all, so what's the point of talking about them. Su Ju people have already sent [-] catties of grain to every household, and we can't find them again and say that the bandits are after them. , and let their family pay for it."

Mrs. Liu sighed softly, picked up the work in her hand, and continued to tie the net.

Hearing what Liu said, Su Jinxia and Su Jinyue looked at each other and then shut up.

Su Jinxia's illness came and went quickly.

After drinking two soups and medicines, the disease will be cured in the morning of the 31st of the Chinese New Year.

The bandits robbed the food, and the incident was reported to the county government that day.

The county government sent people to come the next day, and each family gave another [-] catties of grain as comfort.

In addition to the [-] catties of grain from Su Ju's family, each family got [-] catties of grain.

Although it is fifty catties of grain, it is not enough to fit the teeth of the old Su family.

What's more, it will take at least half a year to wait until the next season of planting and harvesting.

The Su family is immersed in sadness, but the year is always over.

Fortunately, Ponzi put the pork, fish and chicken he bought during the Chinese New Year in the cellar.

On the evening of New Year's Eve, it can be regarded as a prosperous year.

The second day of the Lunar New Year is the day when daughters-in-law leave their natal homes, but this year Pangzi really can't come up with anything to let them leave their natal homes.

Anyway, the news that Sujia Village was robbed by bandits has spread all over the village.

After thinking about it, I had to cancel it this year.

For this reason, Wang made a fuss without winking, and was beaten up by Pang.

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, probably after hearing about the Sujia Village, someone from Liu's natal family actually came.

The person who came was Liu's second elder brother and also Su Jinxia's second uncle.

He brought a hundred catties of grain, and moved directly into the main house, making Liu's look good.

For this reason, Pang's complimented Liu's.

Wang looked dissatisfied, and made sarcastic remarks in the yard.

Most of them said that there was no male labor force in the second room, and that there were sick children who dragged down the old Su family and so on.

It's useless to say that only one hundred catties of grain is brought in, it's not enough to fill their teeth, and it's not enough to make up for their expenses.

Hearing this, Pang walked out of the main room angrily, and scolded Wang.

Uncle Liu's expression was not good, but she was dragged into the room by Mrs. Liu and comforted him a lot.

"The old third family has this kind of temper, the second brother Quan just ignores it, just listen to it, don't take it to heart."

Liu didn't want her family to know that she was having a bad time in Lao Su's house.

Just pretending to be indifferent, and talking to Liu Yufeng.

"You have worked hard these years, and the family can't help you. If you are really wronged, go home and talk about it. The brothers will definitely make decisions for you."

Liu Shi is the only girl in the family and also the youngest.

Although the family is not rich, the elder brothers in the family love her, but she hasn't suffered much since she was a child.

"With the protection of my mother-in-law, don't worry about what hardships you can suffer."

Liu Shi knew exactly what was going on in her natal family.

Hearing what her second brother said, Liu's heart warmed, she wiped the tearful corners of her eyes, and comforted her.

"Well. If that's the case, I'll go back quickly."

Pang is a good mother-in-law. Although his sister has no man, she hasn't been troubled in the past two years.

Seeing that his clumsy tongue made his sister cry again, Liu Yufeng didn't dare to persuade him any more.

Glancing at the sky outside the window, I planned to say goodbye.

"Okay, then I'll see you off."

It was not easy for my brother to come here, so he came with a cart and food.

Liu Shi intends to keep him for a meal, but thinks about the bad situation at home.

He hesitated for a moment and nodded.

After saying that, he followed Liu Yufeng out and sent him to the village before turning back.

One day later, Mrs. Zhang's natal family also came and someone brought a hundred catties of grain to Old Su's family.

It is estimated that Mrs. Zhang watched Liu's natal family bring food, and felt that she could not lose her share in front of Ponzi, so she secretly notified her natal family.

When Wang saw her, she naturally said some sarcastic remarks.

But she didn't dare to murmur in front of Pang Zi, and in the next few days, she also calmed down.

Her natal family didn't bring food, so she didn't dare to make trouble at home anymore recently.

The family has been maintained by relying on more than 200 catties of grain.

But compared to years ago, every meal is sparsely cooked, and I can't get enough to eat.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the cloud surrounding the entire old Su family and even the entire Su family village has not dissipated.

Everyone was frowning, especially those in Lao Su's family.

Because Ponzi's disease has been intermittent, and has not been cured.

It looks like it's getting worse.

Su Jinxia once secretly checked Pang's pulse, and it was a symptom of depression.

To put it bluntly, it is heart disease.
