Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 49

Although there are not as many scholars exempted from land tax as scholars, it is almost the same.

Now the imperial court stipulates the same. Not all families with fame are exempted from land tax. It is also to prevent people from putting their land under the family of fame, so that many people are exempted from land tax, and the country suffers.

For example, if a family wins a scholar, it can exempt [-] mu of land tax, and if it wins a Juren, it can exempt [-] mu of land tax, and if it wins a Jinshi, it will be [-] mu. !Because Jinshi is not easy to get in, so there are many more tax-free ones.

So what Du Youzhong considers is that he is a scholar, and his family can be exempted from paying taxes on [-] acres of land, and there are various additional benefits.

For example, you don't need to kneel when you meet an official, and your descendants will be treated relatively high-level by others.These are all intangible benefits.

After hearing what his brother-in-law said, Uncle Hu smiled and said, "You finally figured it out!" At the beginning when he was able to marry his younger sister to Du Youzhong, he saw that others were capable and not pedantic. There is that fate.

It's just that various conditions did not allow it in the past, and Du Youzhong also had many younger brothers and sisters. As the eldest son, of course he had to help his parents to support the family.

"You don't have to worry about money. I have it here. It's enough for you to take the exam once. As for the recommenders, I know several people. I'll introduce you when the time comes." Uncle Hu said.

Du Youzhong said: "In the past few years in the town, I still have some contacts. I also have recommended people here. In terms of money, I will borrow it first, and I will definitely return it later."

He didn't work in vain in the town. He had nothing to do at night and he was also studying. It can be said that this did not waste time.

And living in the town, no one restricts him to use lamp oil. Similarly, he can avoid his mother's nagging, which is much better than reading at home.

Even if he didn't go to his errand, he still had to wait for the time to take the exam.But at that time, his plan was to wait for his younger brothers to get married, and the burden on him would be lighter, and it would not be too late to take the exam at that time.

It's just that when the store was transferred, he took advantage of the trend.

Now his role at home is not as great as before, even if he takes the exam once, it won't affect too much.

"What did you say? I'm afraid you won't pay back? Hello, my sister and nephews are good. You remember to treat them like this from now on. As for me, I have a talented brother-in-law, so I can save face if I say it." Uncle Hu joked, "However, it doesn't matter if you fail the exam, anyway, you won't regret it in the future!"

Uncle Hu still knows his brother-in-law very well. If he doesn't try this once, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Instead of doing this, it's better to take the exam quickly, and you will be happy if you succeed or not.

If you don't try, you will never have a chance. If you try, you still have half the chance.

Because the test for talents is not something that anyone can take the test for. You have to be recommended by at least two talents before you can apply for the name. Uncle Hu heard that my brother-in-law has already found it, so I know that my brother-in-law is not thinking about it for a day It's been two days.

Knowing that he hasn't left behind his books for so many years and can still take care of his family, Uncle Hu really admires this brother-in-law.If it were him, he would not be able to persevere, especially reading.

I thought it would be great if my son could have the perseverance of his uncle.It’s not in vain that I have been reading since I was a child.

In comparison, his uncle's reading environment is too poor, and a mother still can't understand her son's reading and literacy, and they are fully supportive.

Come on, it's a big festival, and Uncle Hu feels very happy to settle the big things. In addition, he is going to be a father again, so he drank a few more glasses at noon.

Uncle Hu would blush when he drank, but he would not turn into a chatterbox.

Unlike Du Yu's second uncle, he is quiet.After eating, I went to bed and lay down.

Ji smiled and said to everyone: "I am so happy today, I have never drank so much wine before."

Hu Ling hurriedly said, "Because I'm about to have a little brother."

Grandma Hu was very happy when she said this, she said that children's eyes are the cleanest, and they often say what they say. Does Grandma Hu expect her daughter-in-law to have a grandson?

"Okay, what Xiaoling said is absolutely right. Once you have a younger brother, you should know him well, right?"

Du Yu and the others came to Hujiapeng on foot, and when they returned, they naturally walked back.

The Ji family also made a package for Hu Ling's clothes, which were worn by Du Yu and Da Lang Erlang. In comparison, the condition of Du Yu's family is not as good as that of the Hu family. Hu Ling's clothes and materials It's all good.Not to mention Hu Xin, because when studying, one must dress decently, and the clothes are rarely patched, and Hu Xin didn't dislike them either.

The family of five rushed home talking and laughing, but when they were about to get home, it started to rain instead.

The rain doesn't come sooner or later, but it doesn't rain until everyone has harvested the food. I don't know how many people are secretly scolding God.

Fortunately, Du Yu and the others didn't get soaked, but in order to prevent getting sick, no one drank a bowl of hot ginger soup after returning.

"God, when it was time for you to rain, you didn't let it rain. Now that you don't need it to rain, you are working hard to rain it instead!" Qi looked at the rain outside and cursed.

What's more, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, those who hadn't finished harvesting the rice saw it raining, and even scolded them. This year's weather is really crazy. They thought it would never rain again, so Don't worry when harvesting grain, it won't rot in the field anyway, right?Do it like that.

As a result, several families didn't even have a good Mid-Autumn Festival, and rushed to grab food.

Isn't this a joke?Those who didn't put it away could only secretly say unlucky in their hearts!

The rain didn't show any signs of stopping. After several days of continuous rain, the temperature suddenly dropped. It really was a layer of autumn rain and a layer of cold.

It's raining, I can't go out to play, so I stay at home.

Du Yu also calmed down, ready to practice calligraphy well, not for other reasons, we are also literate, and the written characters must become more and more beautiful.

Although Mrs. Qi said a few words at the beginning, but thinking that her granddaughter can write, it is not without benefits, but she did not resolutely oppose it as before.

There were still plenty of brushes, ink, paper and inkstones that I brought back from the White Horse Temple last time, and it was not a waste of money, so Mrs. Qi just turned a blind eye.

What she is most worried about now is finding a wife for her fourth son.

When Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Gao came back from their natal family, she asked about both of them. When she heard that they had asked her natal family to inquire, she finally smiled.

Originally, the Qi family was very optimistic about the daughter of the second son-in-law's cousin that his second daughter said, but the news that Du Mei brought over was that the other side was also optimistic about his family, but he had the intention to marry the Du family.

But there is a condition, that is, after his daughter-in-law gets married, she will live separately from her son-in-law.

I also feel that there are too many people in the Du family, and if everyone gets mixed up, the conflict will become deeper and deeper, and the affection will be lost.

But this condition made the Qi family angry, and he directly disagreed. Just kidding, whose family is going to split up when they just get married?
What is this for?Do you not want to serve your mother-in-law?Just thinking about living a comfortable life by yourself?She still dislikes their family's large population, and she doesn't dislike the woman's family being poor, so dare to ask for conditions!

Which of her daughters-in-law will take care of the whole family together?But when they come to their house, their daughter will not become a daughter?No matter how good a girl like this is, she wouldn't want it.

So like this, this matter is broken, anyway, it is only the beginning of the proposal, and it is not considered a formal marriage proposal.

Mrs. Hu didn't dare to say anything, if she wanted to separate, she would separate, otherwise the mother-in-law would think that she felt that the burden was heavy, and she wanted to drive the younger uncles out.

Others can speak, but she can't. Seeing her mother-in-law getting angry, she also tried to persuade her a few words. In short, if this girl fails, she will not be able to become her mother-in-law's daughter-in-law, so it's not worthwhile to be angry about this person.

Gao does not have the right to speak without his sister-in-law, but he also disagrees with the practice of dividing the family after getting married.

Now is a famine year, everyone is having a hard time, and the only way to get over it is to hold together as a group. It is not good to only care about the small family and ignore everyone's cooking.

Besides, although the mother-in-law has a sharp mouth, she doesn't abuse her daughter-in-law.Such a sister-in-law is really going to marry, and she will only focus on herself in the future, and the conflict may become more serious.

Although that person is not like the second brother and the others, he wants to get rid of his parents and brothers and live a good life by himself, but this kind of thinking always makes people uncomfortable.

"It's not that our family can't find a daughter-in-law. If this one doesn't work, I'll find another one. I can always find a suitable one."

Du Yu found that his father was studying more diligently. After the autumn harvest, there was really nothing to do. Apart from copying books, his father was not like others, and he also went to find some part-time jobs.

He copied enough ten books, and then went to the county to exchange them. One book was twenty Wen, and ten books was two hundred Wen.

"Father, do you think my handwriting can be copied?" Du Yu handed the handwriting he wrote to his father to read.

Du Youzhong looked at it and said with a smile: "I have made progress, but I still have to work hard." That is to say, her handwriting is not up to standard, which is really depressing.

"Don't worry about making money all the time, can't dad support you?" There are some things that are difficult to tell the children, but Du Youzhong has already vowed in his heart that he must let the children live a good life.

But Du Youzhong took the eldest son to be a strong man, because Da Lang's handwriting is very recognizable.Dalang was able to make money by copying books, and his mood suddenly became brighter.Copying books requires not only good handwriting, but also carefulness. Du Youzhong also deliberately trained his son.
