Chapter 128 The Decree
"Oh, so, sister-in-law of the Xue family, look, you don't have any decent things as collateral, how do I know that you can borrow money and pay it back? You must know that twenty catties of grain is worth two hundred Wen. I don't have real estate, no jade pendant, how can I lend it to you?" Yi Xue asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xue said with a face full of smiles, "Big girl, it's because of this that you are poor, or... you can lend it to me first, and let our little cow work in your house to pay back the debt."

It's a good idea, Yi Xue sneered in her heart, she's eating and drinking for free, who doesn't know if that kid in your family is a troublemaker or a snot-stealer.

It would be good if you don’t burn incense, but you can still work?
"Forget it, sister-in-law of the Xue family, your little cow is young, and gold is precious. I dare not let you work. If there is a bump, don't I have to lose money? How about it, let me see about your house. You still have to make a living, you put the house deed to me, when you have money, I will give you the house deed when you return it, if you don’t come back, I will sell the house, and I will borrow your money. Return it all to you, how about it?" Yi Xue felt that she had teased enough, and didn't bother to talk anymore.

"Big girl, you are a robber. You took over the house, where do we live? Aren't you lying? It's unreasonable, you let our family of three sleep under a big tree. Your heart is too poisonous, you are simply a vicious woman ", Mrs. Xue immediately rebounded, pointing at Yi Xue and cursing.

Yi Xue ignored Mrs. Xue, and then said to everyone, "Uncles and aunts, it's only natural to borrow money and pay back the money. If she doesn't pay, do I have to mortgage something?"

"Yeah, it's just and right, it's just and right to pay back the debt"

"You're right"

"..."

"Aunt Xue, look, I have already agreed to lend you money. If you don't want to, I won't force you. I still don't like your dilapidated house," Yi Xue said with a smile.

Xue was dumbfounded, and after talking for a long time, she was led by the nose in a daze, but in the end she couldn't get the money for nothing.I hated Yi Xue even more in my heart.

"Okay, I'll mortgage the house to you, but you have to guarantee that when I pay back the money, you will give me the deed," Xue said bitterly, with eyes that wanted to swallow Yi Xue alive.

"Well, you should still live in that house, and I'll deal with it when the money is not paid," Yi Xue said.

Of course Yixue is not stupid, as long as she has the house deed, she won't kill them all, not to mention that Mrs. Xue just likes to be greedy for petty gains, and dealing with such people doesn't give her any sense of accomplishment.

Besides, everyone in the village watched it, and it was really bad influence to take the house deed and kick out people, and I was not short of that little money.

"Big ya is sensible, it's best like this," someone said appreciatively.

Yi Xue accepted Xue's house deed, and asked Aunt Jia to give four hundred Wen. With the money in her pocket, Auntie spit in a typical mouthful of foam before leaving.

"Big ya, your house will be struck by lightning..."

Yi Xue looked at Kong Laoer again, Kong Laoer's eyes narrowed, he could see clearly just now, Da Ya's going around in circles, unexpectedly confused that stupid woman Xue.Xue's family has food, and it's over if they give it. She was greedy for a small gain and ended up going in with her own house, insisting on mortgaging the house.

Xue's family has a house, but I have nothing. The house belongs to my mother, and my elder brother has deep opinions on me. I don't have a house deed, and the land deed is also in my elder brother's hands.

"Well, big girl, look at me," Kong Laoer said worriedly. He was kicked out by his wife, and now he is considered a single household, but he doesn't have an acre of land under his name, only the ruined temple on the mountain.

"Second Uncle Kong, I can lend you money," Yi Xue said directly.

Kong Laoer was overjoyed immediately, but when he heard Yi Xue's words behind him, his face turned dark.

"You have to sign a contract of sale with me. I don't want too much, just one year, enough for you to repay the money you borrowed from me," Yi Xue said.

Kong Lao Er immediately became unhappy. When did he ever do field work, if Da Ya asked him to do heavy work, he would die.

"I won't borrow it anymore, I won't borrow it anymore," Kong Lao Er was so frightened that he turned around and ran away, only to be blocked by an official.

Seeing the official post, Kong Lao Er remembered that he still owed the official post money, turned to look at Yi Xue, and said hesitantly, "I agree."

Yi Xue nodded, and asked Tianjia to write the contract, and Kong Laoer to sign the calligraphy and painting.

"Folks, what happened today is obvious to all. This is what we both agreed. I didn't force anyone, so I hope the folks will testify to me." Yi Xue hurriedly took advantage of her presence to affirm this point.

Regarding Yi Xue's actions, most of the villagers still think it is reasonable, but there are still very few people who have objections to Yi Xue's actions.But no matter how there is any objection, it is Xue Shi and Kong Laoer's fault.

"Boss Tian, ​​take Second Uncle Kong to get acquainted first, but there must be a measure," Yi Xue said.

Tianjia understands that there are some core things in the family that Kong Laoer cannot know. Kong Laoer's personality and temperament are well known to passers-by, and it may cause some trouble.Kong Lao Er only signed a one-year contract, and Yi Xue has no right to sell it, so he must be cautious.

Tianjia nodded, and said to Kong Laoer, "You go back first, and if you have work, you can do it. I will let you know what work you do."

Yixue was worrying about how Kong Laoer would arrange it, and when she heard Tianjia's words, she felt that it made sense, and she didn't need to arrange a place in her own home, so there would be less unstable factors.

"Yes, miss, I will work hard."Kong Laoer was talking, but he was thinking about how to eat and die in Zhang's house.He was really reluctant to sell himself at the beginning, but now he feels that it is a good thing. Zhang's family has money, and he feels that eating is better than starving himself.Besides, there are many women in their family, maybe they can get some extra money by fooling around.

After making up his mind, Kong Lao Er behaved very obediently, and even changed his address from Big Ya to Missy. This change of face is really natural.

The crowd dispersed, and the song ended lively, but let the villagers see Yi Xue's strength and power even more. If you want to gain benefits from Zhang's family, it depends on whether you have the ability to pass her family's eldest daughter.

Mrs. Zhang was in the yard and heard the whole process, and felt that Yi Xue handled it very safely.

Just after noon, Tianjia came to look for Yi Xue and handed Yi Xue a map.

Yi Xue looked at the map and frowned slightly. This ancient map is really simple, unlike modern contour maps.There are only signs of cities, roads and surrounding mountains on it. It looks easy, but the layout and signs of details are poor.

"Boss Tian, ​​leave the map here," Yi Xue said, and she wanted to study carefully to see if there was any favorable terrain to ensure the safety of Kao Village.

"Miss, I borrowed this map from shopkeeper Hu in the town, and I have to return it," Tianjia said.

Shopkeeper Hu?Well, shopkeeper Hu probably has a lot of collections, "Well, I will return it as soon as possible."

"Also, you arrange people to slowly move back the carbon that was discovered last time, the more the better, and set aside a room in the outer courtyard to store it," Yi Xue said.

Tianjia didn't know what it was, and when he saw the eldest lady's order, he immediately arranged for someone to do it.

Yi Xue looked at the map carefully, there was only one road leading to Kao City from the northern border, and this road was also the only road leading to the capital.It can be said to be a strategic channel for military strategists.If you keep this road, you will keep the capital.This road goes east along the southern foot of Huawang Mountain, and there are four cities along the way. Unless the barbarians have supernatural abilities, or the Tang army is made of mud, it is impossible for the northern barbarians to fight here.

But for the sake of safety, Yi Xue still felt that it was necessary to prepare for a rainy day.However, it is obviously impossible to rely on one's own strength. At most, one can protect Kao Village by oneself.But if the northern barbarians really came to fight, relying on a small Kao village, they would be courting death and waiting to be slaughtered.

Yi Xue stayed in the house, didn't go out all day, and didn't come out to breathe until night.She thought about it for a long time, but because of her limited strength and her own background, even if she suggested it, she probably would not be adopted by the military.But there is still a think tank by my side, Mr. Wang Yin is still there.First inquire about the specific situation at the border gate, he should have a channel for news.

Wang Yin's life is very regular. Basically, he goes out for a walk in the early morning, teaches Xiaojun a few lessons in the morning, and reads or drinks in the afternoon.He seldom goes out. Occasionally, a carrier pigeon will land on the roof, and he will hide in the room mysteriously.

Yi Xue can also roughly guess that Wang Yin still has connections with some high officials in the court, and this connection may still be secret.Sometimes Yi Xue was very worried, afraid that Wang Yin would belong to the kind of person who opposed the royal family, and for some reason, she had to avoid it.But he just promised Yi Xue that he could guarantee that the grain of wheat would not be held accountable by the court, and he became puzzled again.

To be honest, seeing Wang Yin's talents and conduct during this period of time, Yi Xue felt that Wang Yin should not belong to the forces that opposed the royal family.

Based on this reason, Yi Xue felt that Wang Yin could still be trusted.

"Mr. Wang, the little girl is here," Yi Xue shouted outside the door with a smile.

"Come on, Miss Yi Xue, I happen to be bored and want to chat with you," Wang Yin said with a smile.

"It's really a tacit understanding, I also have the same intention," Yi Xue smiled and walked in with small steps.

"Miss Yi Xue looks good recently." Wang Yin looked at Yi Xue wearing a pink dress.

Yi Xue smiled, although she was busy during this time, she ate more abundantly, her body began to develop after a long time, and her stature was a little taller.Needless to say, her skin is fairer than when she first came here, and she no longer looks like a dry stick.The face is also shiny, and the whole person has a look.

Although this body is not very outstanding, Yi Xue is very satisfied, at least there is no defect, unless it is not beautiful enough.

But what is beauty, I will definitely make myself more beautiful in the future, but this has to be studied slowly, there is no time now.

"Hehe, sir has gained weight too, it seems our food is good," Yi Xue joked.

"Hahaha", Wang Yin and Yi Xue laughed together.

"Well, Miss Yixue, the imperial decree will come in a few days, and you need to be prepared," Wang Yin said with a smile.

 Ask for recommendation, ask for reward, ask for subscription.
