Chapter 41 Choice
After Mao Shan heard this, he couldn't help but sneered: "Okay! Then I'll just wait for that day, when your son becomes a Jinshi, and you use your status as an official's wife to suppress me!"

Her words, maybe other people in the village will be afraid.But who is Maoshan?He was a veteran who had been in the army for several years. How could he be a villager who hadn't seen the world at all?Do you think this will scare him?
A woman in her fifties also stepped forward: "That is, even if you really become an official wife in the future, we will not be afraid of you! Our family has always been honest and responsible, and we have never done bad things. Even your son If you become a high official in the future, there is no reason to bully the common people for no reason, right?"

This woman is Maoshan's mother, and Da Ya usually calls her Grandma Li.This is a kind and simple woman, but also a strong and courageous person with a strong character.On weekdays, I have a hard time getting along with Mrs. Bai, and I can't get along with Mrs. Pan.

Not for anything else, just because of the attitude of these two people towards Rao Shouqin, Grandma Li saw that they were very upset.These two people can treat their relatives so ruthlessly and unjustly. In her opinion, they are not worth dating at all.

"Then give it a try! One day..." Rao Mudan jumped in anger, and was about to scold Grandma Li when the patriarch took the first step and gave her a hard look: "Shut up, you can offend Grandma too." What? You’re still the daughter of a scholar, you don’t know any rules!”

Rao Mudan rolled her eyes in anger, and wanted to reply, but after hearing the patriarch's next words, her face changed drastically, and she really shut her mouth tightly.

The patriarch finished scolding Bai Mudan, and glared at the Bai family with sharp eyes: "If you continue to mess around, I will, as the patriarch of the Rao family, expel both of you mother and daughter from the genealogy!"

These words are too lethal.

The Bai mother and daughter were frightened immediately, their faces turned pale.

Expelled from the family tree?That's okay?In this case, they will have no place in this world!In the future, no matter where you go, you will be cast aside.At that time, survival will be a problem.And Bai's proud eldest son, rich and noble, will inevitably be implicated, maybe he won't even be able to take the imperial examination.

The arrogance of the two fell to the bottom in one fell swoop, and they walked away in despair.

Now that the matter has come to this point, Da Ya just kept on doing nothing and put forward a new request: "In this case, the 45 taels of silver can't be spent in vain. In addition to my fifth uncle, the household registration of my uncle's family of five and grandparents is also the same. It must fall in Shanqian Village."

Regarding the matter of the uncle's family moving out, as early as in Wudaoliang, she had discussed with the uncle's family and grandparents.Originally, it was planned to let the fifth uncle move here first, and the others would wait a year or two.However, something unexpected happened today, and she was worried that the night would be long and dreamy.I'm afraid that after a long time, the uncle's family will move here in the future, and the bandit Ah San's family will do something wrong.

After finishing speaking, he looked at his uncle: "Uncle, what do you think?"

"Well, that's fine, just listen to Da Ya." The uncle smiled honestly and nodded.It was his long-cherished wish to move out of the closed mountain. If he could settle in Shanqian Village, he would be able to visit his sister's family frequently in the future, which was what he wished for.

Li Zheng said: "Well, what I'm talking about is that 15 taels of silver per mu of mountain land is really too much! I agree that your grandma, grandpa and uncle's family of five will move here and settle in Shanqian Village. This is a kind of compensation. .”

15 Two taels of silver per mu is a sky-high price, and the best fertile land is only five or six mu of silver per mu.To build a mud-brick house with five or six rooms in the village, even if you buy all the wood, bricks and tiles, it doesn't need to exceed fifteen!

The bandit Ah San's family is dark enough and cruel enough!
"No, homestead and settlement are two different things!" Bandit Ah San jumped out again.

Li Zheng frowned, staring at him sharply: "Then what do you want?!"

"If you settle down, each person has to pay five taels of silver, otherwise, I will never agree! If Li is going to use power to suppress people, I can't stop it, but when this family moves to Shanqian Village in the future, I won't accept it. I promise not to trouble them!" The bandit Ah San cast a sideways glance at Li Zheng, with an extremely arrogant attitude, not paying attention to Li Zheng at all.

These words are a blatant threat!

Lizheng's heart was terribly blocked when he heard it, he almost vomited blood, his eyes were red, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak.

Da Ya hurried over to help him calm down, patted his back to comfort him: "Grandpa Lizheng, don't get angry, you can't do such a thing for such a person!"

"Good boy..." Li happened to be relieved, and after only three words, he couldn't help but choked up.Good boy, grandpa is sorry for you, the other party is too cruel, grandpa can't help you.

"I know, grandpa, don't be sad!" Da Ya's eyes were also red, and she smiled at Li Zheng, then turned her head and stared at the bandit Ah San coldly: "Okay, five taels is five taels, I agree !"

Seeing that she agreed so happily, the bandit Ah San couldn't help being a little annoyed, and turned his eyes between Da Ya's uncle and fifth uncle, and then smiled slyly: "I have one last condition, that is, from now on , your family can no longer allow any relatives and friends to settle in Shanqian Village! After all, this time, your grandma’s house will have eight people at once, which is enough! Our Shanqian Village has limited land, if your family wants to increase If the population is settled, that would be too much!"

Bandit Ah San knew that Da Ya still had a fourth uncle, so he thought he was embarrassing Da Ya's family by saying this.In the future, her fourth uncle's family will definitely have resentment against her family because they can't come to Shanqian Village to settle down, and even become enemies with her family.If this is the case, it will be very satisfying, and the grievances he has suffered today will not be in vain!
Little did they know, his deeds were exactly what Da Ya wished for, and it was exactly what he wanted. "Okay, I also agree. I promise everyone that after grandma, grandpa, fifth uncle, and uncle's family are settled in Shanqian Village, my family will never propose to let other relatives and friends settle in Shanqian Village!"

That's great, but she was worried that the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt would play tricks and want to follow if they knew that the uncle's family was also coming to Shanqian Village.In that case, it would be very bad. Four uncles and a family of six were lazy and greedy, and their mouths were very broken. She didn't want to have frequent contact with this family at all.

After hearing what Bandit Ah San said, she couldn't help secretly laughing in her heart, and shouted in her heart: Oh, hello, Bandit Ah San, you finally did a great deed!
Bandit Ah San was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

Hehe, this silly girl must have never imagined what troubles she will face in the future, right?Treating one more favorably than another, that would be annoying, even hateful!

Uncle and Uncle Wu were in a hurry. They held Da Ya several times and wanted to say something to her, but she stopped her with soothing eyes.Rao Shouqin and Liu Xiangchun were also very anxious, feeling that their daughter's promise was too hasty, so much money is not a small sum.However, in the past few months, the two have already gotten used to obeying the wishes of their eldest daughter. Seeing that she kept giving them winks to prevent them from saying anything against them, they had no choice but to give up.

The eldest daughter is a capable person. She should have a solution for making such a decision.Under the signal of their daughter's eyes, the two helped hold the uncle and uncle together, waiting for the development of the situation.

"Lizheng, write down the points I just said, and ask everyone to sign and sign!" The bandit Ah San was "very considerate" and said the big girl's heartfelt feelings.

Lizheng frowned, and sternly reprimanded: "Ah San, have you made enough trouble? You don't need to write down the following points. Do you think that pen, ink, paper and inkstone don't need to be bought with money?"

"Isn't it just a blank piece of paper? How much money can I ask for?" The bandit Ah San saw that Li was just like this, and immediately concluded that Li Zheng was afraid that he wanted to write a letter to the big girl's family, so that he could provide it to her family in the future. convenient.Thinking of this, he felt angry, and simply took out a handful of copper coins and put them in front of Lizheng: "Are these a dozen copper coins enough to buy a piece of white paper? I'll give you all, and write the paperwork quickly. Don't be silly, I don't have the time to accompany you guys!"

Li Zheng was so angry that his beard shook.

Da Ya hurriedly said: "Grandpa Lizheng, don't be angry, just promise him, write it down, no one in my family has any objections!" After speaking, she looked at her family.

Rao Shouqin and Liu Xiangchun nodded quickly: "Exactly, we have no objection."

The villagers were stunned to see it.

A farce, finally dissipated in a very strange way.

However, the matter of silver has not been settled.

The night breeze in May is refreshing and pleasant.However, Rao Shouqin and Uncle Wu couldn't suppress the irritability in their hearts, and they kept going up.

Liu Xiangchun couldn't help complaining to her daughter: "Big girl, you child, my mother kept winking at you and told you not to buy three acres of land, but you just wanted to go all the way to the dark. Now it's good, go Where do you get so much money? The family is full of money, so they can only scrape together three or five taels. Even if you borrow it from your fifth uncle's family, it will not exceed ten taels at most. Now, what should I do?"

Uncle Wu had a sad face, but he couldn't bear to blame Da Ya. After all, the child was also doing it for his own good, and that's why he was in such a dilemma.In my heart, I was full of guilt towards Da Ya, and felt very uneasy.

The uncle sighed deeply: "Brother, I still have five taels of silver in my hand, I will use it for emergency. I will go back to Wudaoliang now, and see if I can get some money with the villagers. In a few days Uncle is coming back!"

Today, there is still a few tens of taels of silver, which is not a small number.The Xiangton family was kicked out of the house only a few months ago. Although they earned a little money, they probably have already emptied their family today.

"No, four taels of the five taels of silver should be given to the fourth uncle's family, right? Uncle hurry up and put it away. I have a way to get the money together!"

Da Ya was very moved, and quickly stuffed the worn-out purse back into uncle's hand.The fourth uncle and the fourth aunt are not easy to talk to, compared with the third aunt Meng Shi.If Da Ya accepts the money, Uncle won't be able to explain it after he goes back.

The uncle declined several times, but the aunt's attitude was too firm, so he had no choice but to take it back: "Well, then I will keep it first, and if necessary, just tell uncle."

The family discussed and decided that for the three acres of mountain land, the eldest uncle and the fifth uncle each have half, and each family has one and a half acres.

Da Ya suggested: "Since it's all like this, why don't you start building the house the day after tomorrow, so you can move here as soon as possible." If you live in Wudaoliang, you will not have a clean life.

The fifth uncle was very worried: "But, the money for buying the mountain land and settling down has not been settled yet? Or, let's buy an acre of land first, settle down and build a house, and wait until I earn enough money? "
