Reborn I want to be a giant

Chapter 86
Under the control of Yan Xingsheng, everything went smoothly in the farm.In order to prevent poultry diseases, every guy has the habit of observing the birds flying overhead.In addition, the cattle pens, pig pens, sheep pens and rabbit cages are all clean, and the excrement is cleaned every day.

The cesspool outside Zhuangzi was dug a few years ago, because almost every family in the outer city grows vegetables, and the common people like to come to Zhuangzi to pick up manure. Cheng Fu has no plan to sell manure, and everyone gets it by themselves.But Yan Xing was afraid that someone would fish in troubled waters and come into Zhuangzi to play tricks, so he thought of a compromise and ordered people to dig another cesspool.

The paper mill is now able to produce eight types of paper products. Cheng Fu feels that the output can barely meet her expectations, but the demand for paper products is endless. Yan Xingsheng can do it freely without worrying too much.

"Miss, how did I hear that Song Xinyi has gone to Beijing?" Yan Xingsheng asked cautiously.

Cheng Fu was feeding a pig with a vegetable, "Do you want to go?"

"No, I want to ask if there will be no long-distance race this year?"

He slapped his thighs loudly, and proudly said, "I've been running around Zhuangzi twice a day for the past six months."

The little girl sized him up and found that he was indeed much stronger, "Can you play Cuju?"

"Huh?" Guan Shi was at a loss.

"We won't hold a long-distance race this year, but maybe someone else will. If you want to participate, just go."

Yan Xingsheng was a little disappointed, he didn't do it himself, so he didn't think it was interesting.

"You said Cuju just now?" He came back to his senses.

"Well, we are already preparing for the Cuju competition."

Yan Xingsheng was in a dilemma, "I kicked it when I was a child, but I have a foot these years."

Cheng Fu waved his hand, so that he didn't have to worry about this, "I usually feel like I'm back after practicing." There are many open spaces in the outer city, and their village is also big, so it doesn't hurt to designate a random area as a practice field.

Today Wu Ying didn't go out of the city with her, and was busy with teahouse and Cuju competition preparations in Lianghexuan.He thought, with Cheng Fu's handwriting, there will definitely be many people who will participate after the registration is opened, but the problem is that there are too few venues.There is only one Cuju field in Jinling, and only two games can be played at the same time.

He thought, should he talk to Xue Youzhi, the magistrate of Jinling, and ask him to approve another piece of open space for a Cuju field?
Lin Bang came in and whispered in his ear that Wu Tianyou and Wu Yongling were here again.

"You see, there are always people who want me to be unhappy."

When Wu Tianyou and the two came in, they saw Wu Ying folding the paper with one hand, and pressing it with a black jade paperweight.

"What did you do with your hands?" Wu Tianyou asked while turning his head to look at Wu Yongling.

The other party lowered his head in shame. The last time he saw Wu Ying, he felt that the other party's hands were weird, but he didn't think about the injury.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" There was no answer to Wu Tianyou's question.

Wu Tianyou was surprised to find that he was used to the impatient face of the other party, and he didn't even want to put on the airs of the clan elder to suppress the other party.

"Have you heard about the Hangzhou incident?"

Wu Ying nodded, "Yeah." If he wanted to lie and say he didn't know about such a big matter, no one would believe it.

"Now the imperial envoys have to pay taxes, otherwise they will arrest people." Wu Tianyou's eyes were red, and it seemed that he had suffered too much and hadn't had a good rest.

The Hangzhou case got deeper and deeper, and the families involved in it all encountered a nightmare of "killing the rich and filling the treasury" without exception.All the managers of the Wu family in Hangzhou were sent to prison, and they also paid back the tax calculated by the officials of the household department.But the imperial envoy who came this time has a really unpredictable temper. Just an hour ago, the people in Hangzhou rushed back to report, and the imperial envoy made a new decision to impose a fine on the tax, according to the amount of overpayment. half of the penalty.

Wu Lingzuo almost fainted.

Wu Ying was surprised by the ruthlessness of this imperial envoy. There were still three nails on the wrecked ship, not to mention that Jiangnan is so big, and the family's property doesn't stop at Hangzhou. Revenge madly after they took a breath?

"Pay the money and let's get it done." Now that the matter has come to this point, he has to accept it obediently.

Seeing that Wu Tianyou was exhausted, Wu Yongling hurriedly added: "The Zong family means that the clan will pay the money together." Wu Lingzuo had a way to keep silent and let the Guo family and Sifang be the mouthpiece.

After experiencing this turmoil, Wu Yongling was also physically and mentally exhausted.He thought that as long as the tribe worked together, there would be no problems that could not be solved.Thinking about it now, I was too naive all these years.

Wu Ying laughed, "Didn't expect that?" He didn't sympathize with these clansmen, the clan's clan became what it is today, not because the clansmen were used to it.And this kind of situation is a common phenomenon in the Jiangnan family.

"It's not that the clan doesn't have money, so it should be given." He pays a lot of offerings every year, and other clansmen also make active contributions. How can the clan account be short of such money.Since he indulged such a clan and was unwilling to re-establish the clan rules, he could only live with it.

Wu Tianyou let out a long sigh, and Wu Yongling looked unhappy, "There is a problem with the accounts of the clan, and now we can't get the money out."

Wu Ying turned cold instantly, "Are you two taking advantage of me this trip? I'm sorry, I don't have any money."

"I'm here to see off the guests." Wu Ying said loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed away, and several thick guards walked in, staring at Wu Tianyou and Wu Yongling.Wu Tianyou opened his mouth to say something, but was held back by Wu Yongling, he felt ashamed and didn't want to stay any longer.

That night, Wu Tianyou fell ill, and the doctors went home one after another to no avail, and he didn't survive the dawn in the end.When Wu Ying received the news, she didn't feel much sadness, but more sighs and sympathy for the Wu clan.You must know that there are not many old people who are willing to work hard.

The Wu family was experiencing troubled times, and Wu Tianyou's death undoubtedly brought a big blow to the family.Wu Ying kowtowed a few times in the mourning hall, posted another 5000 taels of funeral money, comforted the family, and planned to go back.He couldn't be of much help anyway.

"Stop him!" Guo Shi stepped forward angrily in plain clothes.

A group of servants who appeared out of nowhere quickly surrounded Wu Ying, while the other clansmen just stood there, no one dared to step forward to make a rescue.

Wu Ying was impatient, "I have something to say."

Guo sternly said, "Did the clan boss go to see you yesterday?"

Wu Ying nodded, "His cousin of the same age has looked for me."

"You must have killed him. Don't let him go!" Guo shouted at the clansmen present.

Wu Tianyou's family members ran out of the mourning hall one after another upon hearing the news, standing by the side wondering if they should listen to Mrs. Guo.

Wu Ying said coldly, "Then you should report to the officials and ask Wu Zuo to come over for an autopsy. If I did it, I will pay with my life."

"The clan elders are always in good health, how come they disappear after seeing you? Who will believe that they have nothing to do with you?" Mrs. Guo refused to let go.

Wu Ying turned to Lin Bang who was traveling with her and said, "Go to the yamen."

"Mrs. Wu, let me say this first. If the death of the clan elder has nothing to do with me, you are framing the clan and disrespecting the clan elder by making a fuss today. According to the clan rules, it should be filled in the family temple, and you can't die with your husband in the same hole." .You can think about it."

Guo Shi didn't intend to let Wu Ying and her party go out of this door, and the two guards under her rushed over when Lin Bang took the first step.Seeing that the two sides were about to fight to the death, Wu Yongling, Wu Yongzheng, Wu Yongxun, and Wu Yonghe's outstanding children finally arrived in time.Wu Yongling drove away all the people surrounding Wu Ying, and Lin Bang was also stopped by Wu Yongzheng and others, so the Guo family had to give up.

Wu Yongling didn't want to talk nonsense with the Guo family, and only begged Wu Ying: "Let the clan elders go quietly."

Wu Ying glanced at him, "I don't want to?"

Wu Yongling's voice trembled slightly, "I know you are wronged."

"No, you don't know." After speaking, Wu Ying left Wu Tianyou's house without looking back.

After all, he is a respected clan elder, and the funeral was handled very decently. During these days, everyone was busy grieving, and the previous proposal of the clan to share the penalty tax among the clan members seemed to have been deliberately forgotten.Seeing that it was about to die down, Wu Lingzuo suddenly suffered from a headache. The pain lasted all night and he couldn't get out of bed. It was all relieved by acupuncture.Seeing her husband's pain and the lack of cooperation from her clan, Guo felt angry and anxious.But it is impossible for her to transfer money from the Zong family's account.

However, Mrs. Wu Si couldn't help, and she kept coming to her and sighing. Every day, she was reminded that the time limit required by the imperial envoy was coming, or someone was arrested in Hangzhou, which made her suffer even more.

"Sister-in-law, I think this must have something to do with that kid from the Xu family. The imperial envoy didn't say that there would be a tax penalty. He just wanted our Wu family to be ruined." Qin blamed Xu Ye in her mouth, but scolded Wu Ziqi and Wu Ziqi in her heart. Wu Zhenzhen, two scourges.At the same time, I don't forget to despise the Guo family, what mother raises what cubs.But he forgot that he also gave birth to Wu Yongxu who was ineffective.

Thinking of what happened to the Wu family from years ago to now, Mrs. Guo became more and more convinced of Mrs. Qin's words. Coupled with Wu Ying's ignorance of good and bad, she only felt a monstrous anger in her chest that could not be resolved.

Changhuai Academy of Painting
Lin Po put the painter's trial draft in front of Cheng Fu.

Cheng Fu randomly flipped through a few times, picked out a few, and returned the others, "The dancer's demeanor must be sensitive, his body must be light, and you must draw a dancing posture, not wearing a dancer's clothes under a tree. Embroidery work. And this one, the dancers wear so little, they will mistakenly think it is a low-level business, no one who is serious will dare to come."

Lin Po was in a hurry, she felt that she hadn't done a good job, "I... I'll let them change it now."

Cheng Fu raised his hand to stop her, "No need for now, they may need some stimulation."

"What?" Ringo was puzzled.

Cheng Fu looked straight at her with a stern face, "Go and find some dancers, if you can't find any serious ones, then you can make do with non-decent ones, bring them here to dance for them to see."

"..."

"Don't forget to invite the musicians too." Only with the accompaniment can there be a feeling.

Lin Po almost ran out, Dean Tong stretched his neck, and did not look back until he disappeared completely.

"What are you doing here?"

The little girl concentrated on flipping through the few paintings that were not bad, "Go and call the painters to the front yard later."

"Oh..." Now the biggest client of the painting academy is Lianghexuan, he doesn't want to offend this girl at all, as long as he does what she says, he will do as he pleases.

In the evening, Lingo finally invited six girls who could dance, but she didn't reveal the reason in public.Wu Ying and Cheng Han heard that Cheng Fu was still in the painting academy and hadn't come home, so they came over to see what happened.Unexpectedly, as soon as the two of them stepped into the yard, they saw a woman in the center, wearing thin long sleeves and a young luthier playing the piano in the corner.And the others, standing and sitting crowded together under the eaves, staring at the woman intently.

How weird this picture is.

Sitting in the middle, Cheng Fu said to a short old painter next to her, "She wears too little, you can draw a thicker and more gorgeous one, um, understand?"

The old painter nodded his head, "Understood."

"Also, you should pay attention to her demeanor, face, and savor her eyebrows and eyes carefully. Is she particularly beautiful?"

"But it can't be painted exactly like her."

The painters all said yes.

After talking for a long time, Cheng Fu saw that everyone had no interest in painting, so he didn't plan to stay any longer. Anyway, Ringo would take care of the rest.

"Boss, boss, something... something happened..."

Everyone came out of the gate of the painting academy and was about to get into the carriage when a young man came galloping on a horse.

"Slow down." Wu Ying thought that there was nothing to make him uneasy today.

The boy's name was Feng Long, and he was the secretary of Lianghexuan. He was fine at first, but as soon as Wu Ying's comforting words fell, he couldn't help crying, "Someone came to make trouble, everything was smashed, people... They were all wounded, sir."
