The splendid youth of the farm gate

Chapter 311
"Guo'er, I heard people say that those who don't want to serve in the military can buy it with money and have someone else replace them. Is it true?" Qingping asked.

Qingguo nodded.

"I've inquired about it. One month's service is 180 yuan. Let's count it as five years. If you want to find someone to serve on your behalf, you will have to pay [-] taels of silver. Do you think my grandma and my grandfather can afford this amount of money?" Qingguo looked at Qingping.

"Grandpa and grandma won't take it, we will take it." Qingping said: "Father is so old..."

Qingguo looked at Mrs. Lin, "Mother, what do you mean?"

Lin thought for a while, nodded and said: "Take it, he is here, you still have a father."

Qingguo nodded.

"Then turn around, I'll ask someone to take the money back."

Qingping looked at Mrs. Lin and then at Qingguo, and said hesitantly: "Why don't you send a letter for Dad to pick it up!"

Qingguo looked towards Mrs. Lin.

Lin shook her head, "No need, let's send someone back."

Qingping wanted to say more, but Mrs. Lin had already stood up and walked out.

"Mom, what about grandpa?"

Lin's steps stopped, yes, how could she forget her mother's family.

"Or, let someone send a letter to ask grandpa to come over." Qing Guo said, "I don't feel relieved to let someone else take such a large amount of money. It's better to let grandpa pass it to my father."

Lin nodded, "Then I'll go find someone now, and someone will send a message to your grandfather asking him to come to town tomorrow."

"Hey."

The next day, Lin Shanwen got the letter and drove the ox cart to the town.

"The head of the village also told the story in the village. Hey, no one is thinking about it this year." Lin Shanwen sighed, took out the dry tobacco behind him, packed it into a bag, and smoked it.

Qing Guo was silent for a while.

As the parties concerned, no one is willing to share this matter. If it happens, it will be separation of flesh and blood, and no one knows whether they will survive or not!However, from the long-term perspective of future generations, the construction of canals is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.

It not only strengthens the north-south transportation, but also makes the north and south cultures blend together, and the culture of the central plains and the south.More importantly, it can effectively drive the economic development along the coast, and make the centralization highly centralized, effectively reducing the division of local forces!

"Grandpa, we have discussed it and plan to use money to serve on behalf of him." Qing Guo said to Lin Shanwen.

Lin Shanwen nodded. The family had discussed this matter yesterday. Fortunately, the family has saved some money by relying on the wasteland in the past two years, and they also came up with this idea.

"Guo'er, are you worried that your grandpa and grandma will push your dad out?" Lin Shanwen asked.

Qingguo smiled.

According to Mr. Luo's and Mrs. Chen's eccentricity, this is something that everyone knows about the bald man's troubles!
"Okay, I'll take the silver for you."

Qingguo nodded, and said to Lin Shanwen: "Grandpa, you ask uncle to accompany my father to Lichang's, and hand over the money."

"You are worried about your grandfather and grandma..." Lin Shanwen shook his head and said, "Is it not?"

Qingguo sighed.

"Grandpa, I don't dare to bet on the humanity of my grandpa and grandma with you, so be careful and pass it on for thousands of years!"

Lin Shanwen nodded.

Qingguo then took out a large package that had been prepared and handed it to Lin Shanwen, "Grandpa has 360 taels of silver in it, and you and my father each have half of it!"

"Hey, Guo'er, no need." Lin Shanwen quickly waved his hand and said, "Grandpa's share, we just got it together."

Qingguo smiled and said: "You're welcome, Grandpa, we can get this out, but if we really can't, we can't help if we want to, right? Besides, my eldest aunt is pregnant, and my uncle is going to get married next year. Not a place to spend money."

Lin Shanwen wanted to say more, but Mrs. Lin on the side couldn't help but put the big package into Lin Shanwen's arms, and said softly, "Take it, it's the children's wish."

Lin Shanwen nodded with reddened eyes, "Guo'er, grandpa thanked you for your uncle and the others."

"Hey!" Qing Guo smiled and said, "Grandpa, why are you being polite to us!"

Lin Shanwen nodded heavily, "Well, you're welcome, you're welcome."

I thought this was the end of the matter.

It's just that no one thought that things would change dramatically!

Three days later, Qingyang Town received another document, which said that the construction of the canal was a huge project, and each household needed two handymen.

For a moment, it was as if water had entered the hot oil pan and exploded.

Originally, some families scraped together the money by selling their sons and daughters, and some even sold the old people's birthday materials.No one expected that suddenly two civil servants would be recruited from one family, and the crying of every village and village would be loud, like a hell on earth.

"Hey, mother, I'm afraid this matter will be terrible." Qingguo smiled wryly and said to Lin: "According to my father's temperament, I am afraid that if we pay the money, it will be for nothing!"

Lin pursed her lips, but said nothing.

Luo Xiaojiang put on a serious face, and said from the side: "Then what about, I will go back to the village tomorrow?"

Qingguo shook his head.

What can I do if I go back?

Luo Xingzu could not even want old children for the sake of Mr. Luo, so how could he disobey Mr. Luo for the more than 100 taels of silver?
Either, they took out another piece of money, or let Luo Xingzu serve as a handyman.

"Guo'er, you're just talking." Seeing that Qing Guoguang shook his head and didn't make a sound, Luo Xiaojiang stomped his feet anxiously, "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you just said something."

Qing Guo glanced at Lin Shi and Qing Ping, and seeing that they were both frowning, she thought for a while and said, "Why don't we pay another piece of money!"

"180 taels!" Luo Xiaojiang said angrily, "How many sour pickles do we have to sell to earn back?"

Qing Guo sighed: "Then what do you say?"

"I'm going to ask my dad what he means!"

"You asked him? What else could he mean? Of course he went to serve in the military." Qing Guo said in a muffled voice.

"Then I'll take back the previous money, why should we pay the money for uncle and uncle!"

Why?
Qing Guo twitched the corners of her mouth and smiled wryly.

Naturally, it was because of their good luck that they gave birth to a son who only knew how to be foolish and filial in everything!
"Brother, don't be stupid." Qingguo shook her head and said to Luo Xiaojiang: "I want him to spit out the money that has entered the government, how is that possible!"

Luo Xiaojiang was so angry that he sat down in the chair, unable to speak for a long time.

Qingguo is also tangled.

180 taels of silver is nothing compared to their current abilities.But the problem is that Qingping is going to get married, and at the end of the year, there will be a bonus for the eleventh prince, and they have given out 360 taels of silver three days ago. Adding everything together, the 180 taels will not be too much. too much!
