Teases the peasant girl to be busy

Chapter 143 Tax Payment
It's just that Gu Shuang and the others didn't pay attention to the situation of the Gu family's big house. After the August Festival, things in the shop have stabilized, and things in the chicken farm have almost stabilized.

So Gu Shuang had a lot of free time besides practicing kung fu, so he walked around the village every day, watching everyone's harvest, with a smile on his face.

Of course, when he saw the weeds in the field of the Gu family's big house, Gu Shuang was still very contemptuous. The family was afraid that they would starve to death sooner or later, so he shook his head, these were none of her business.

After the harvest, the next step is for the people above to come down to collect taxes. Each household pays taxes according to their own land, and Gu Shuang's family has taken advantage of it this time.

Because the land given by the government is all mountain fields, there are relatively few tax collections, and I don't know that Gu Shuang has reformed, and no relative policies have been made yet.

At least if the land is not modified, the tax will be paid according to the mountain land, and the barren hills purchased separately will be taxed in the first three years because of the imperial government's policy.

So this year, Gu Shuang's family only has to pay taxes on the 55 mu of land. Of course, because Gu Shuang is rich now, he didn't think about paying taxes at all, but paid them in silver.

Of course, because of the tax payment, most of the joy of the harvest has disappeared, but it is still very happy!Because the weather is good this year, everyone can fill their stomachs even after paying taxes.

Even because Gu Shuang's family has a lot of work, it can be said that they are a little rich!On the third day after the harvest, when everyone's food was almost dry.

Two officials came into the village: "The tax collection has started, the tax collection has started."

At first, they yelled in the village, and then several officials came in, some with scales, some with large wooden barrels for grain, and came in with a carriage.

Of course, these families had already prepared the food to be paid, so they were very serious at the beginning. After Gu Shuang paid the money, it was time for the big family to pay the taxes.

Speaking of which, the Gu family had completely forgotten about paying taxes, because it was prepared by Gu's mother before, so when the tax was collected today, the whole village paid it, but the Gu family didn't show up.

This made the official poor very dissatisfied, so he shouted loudly: "Gu Youzhong, which family is Gu Youzhong? The family has five acres of fertile land and five acres of mountainous land. Why didn't you come to pay taxes?"

In terms of paying money, one mu of fertile land is one tael of silver, and mountainous land is five hundred taels of silver. If the Gu family can't produce food this time, they will have to pay seven and a half taels of silver!

Li Zheng heard the voice of the official, and looked around only to find that none of the members of the Gu family had come, so Li Zheng was speechless, and walked forward to look at the official.

"My lords, wait a moment, I'll send someone to call Gu Youzhong's family right now."

Although it was a bit of a delay, the two poor brothers were still very patient because they had been reminded by the master when they came here that they should be more honest when they arrived in Gujia Village.

"Go, go, hurry up, we have to go to the next village in a hurry!"

Li Zheng smiled: "Okay, okay, let's go now."

As he spoke, he called someone casually, and just in time he called Uncle Gu to go to the big room of the Gu family to call for someone. Uncle Gu was a little reluctant, but went anyway, and knocked on the door of the big room of the Gu family.

"Aunt Gu, the door is open and the tax has been paid. Why haven't you gone yet? The whole village has paid."

Gu Huang knows that there is such a thing as paying taxes. After all, when the old man was here, they had to pay every year. Later, Gu's mother took care of everything in the family, so she didn't worry about it.

Now she was suddenly asked to pay taxes, and she was a little confused: "What kind of taxes are you paying? Go find Mother Gu!"

After subconsciously saying this sentence, Gu Huang felt that it was wrong, and Gu Wushu had already laughed: "I said Aunt Gu, what you said is wrong, Gu Shuang's family has already broken off your relationship with you."

"Why should I still pay you taxes? I told you, if you still don't pay taxes, the messenger will come to the door in person later. I'm leaving."

Uncle Gu also didn't really like how the big house of the Gu family used to bully others. Now that he wants to bully others, it depends on whether they ignore you!I can't wait to see the big family of the Gu family suffer.

So after saying a word, he left directly, which directly made Gu Huang a little confused. It seems that he really has to pay taxes!But the family has no food and no money.

What do you use to pay taxes?Gu Huang is very annoying!Just at this time, Gu Duo'er, who was as skinny as a stick, came out: "Grandma, what are you cooking for lunch today?"

After finishing speaking, she felt that there was something wrong with Gu Huangshi's eyes looking at her, so Gu Duo'er was a little scared. These days, the life in the big house of the Gu family has been very difficult.

It's like life is worse than death, sleeping for two hours a day, not getting enough to eat and not starving to death, there are endless chores to be done, and endless curses!Everything came to her alone.

Gu Duo'er is also helpless, so she is not afraid of Gu Huang's eyes and a little, no matter how miserable it is, it will never be worse than it is now!After Gu Huang's eyes rolled a few times.

Looking at Gu Duo'er in front of him, he said angrily: "Eat whatever you want, you know what to eat all day long, now you don't have money to pay taxes, and the whole family will go to prison."

"Duo'er, don't blame grandma for being cruel. If you want to blame it, blame Gu Shuang, that broom star for overrunning our first wife. Go to jail, your brother can't go."

As he said that, he pulled Gu Duo'er towards the tax-paying dam, but Gu Duo'er was shocked, Gu Baoer can't go to jail, can she go as a girl?
At this moment, Gu Duo'er really had no extravagant hopes for Gu Huang's grandma, and she completely gave up. It's okay, it's better to die than to live in the big house of Gu's family!

Thinking of this, Gu Duo'er didn't say anything, and was dragged all the way to the tax payment place by Gu Huangshi. At this time, the two officials were getting impatient and were about to show their faces.

Then I heard someone shout, "Here we come."

Lizheng also looked at Gu Huangshi speechlessly: "Auntie, what's the matter with you? Where's your food? Why did you come here with Duo'er?"

It's just that Gu Huang didn't pay attention to Lizheng at all, and came directly in front of the two officials: "You two officials, to be honest, our family is poor, we were killed by a traitor, and we didn't farm any land this year."

"I can't pay the tax. This is my granddaughter. You can take it away. When my family has enough tax money, come and take my granddaughter home."

Everyone in the village was stunned when they heard this. How vicious is this Gu Huang family?Don't pay taxes, and still want to send your granddaughter to prison?
