Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 87

However, Su Chunsheng showed his excellent ability at this time. When Li Zheng expressed that he was incompetent due to the accident, Su Chunsheng firmly grasped this hard-won opportunity to speak up.

Su Chunsheng's words are not long, but the amount of information is very large. He picked out a few key things from the contacts between the Su family and the Liu family after returning to Xiejiao Village. The Liu family couldn't deny it even if they wanted to, and this was thanks to Yuan Bao's hard-hearted resistance after arriving at the Su family.

Each of these things showed the Liu family's insatiable greed and possession of the Su family's property, from the Liu family's food and drink when the Su family was poor, to Liu Guirong being forced to fall ill in the name of learning art, and In addition to this time, the Su family went to the Liu family three times to beg for money, Su Youwang's funeral and Liu Guirong's emergency delivery.

These words are really well-organized and eloquent. Even though everyone knows that Su Chunsheng prepared it after careful consideration, they are still amazed by his eloquence.

Yuan Bao can't do this, because she neither understands the laws of this era, nor understands the ways of the world.

Then, Su Chunsheng talked about the current situation, "Mother is not only a married daughter, but also a daughter who was sold by her natal family. Logically speaking, since the day my mother was sold, since the Liu family has taken my mother's selling money , then Mother will owe nothing to the Liu family, and talking about 'filial piety' is a joke." Indeed, this is true both in terms of legal principles and human feelings, and no one can refute Su Chunsheng's conclusion.

"But the Su family's family style is kind and kind. My mother not only has a lot of etiquette in the four seasons, but also gives her private money to her grandparents for safekeeping. What is this?!" Su Chunsheng glanced at the elders present, " This is trust, but also human affection. Just imagine, with such human affection, how can mother write down any evidence?! If you don't even trust your own biological parents, they are not worthy of trust, what kind of ethics are there in this world? Is it moral?!" His tone could not help but be filled with grief and indignation, because he thought of his parents and was touched.

Father Liu finally lowered his head, his expression changed, and Aunt Liu was too ashamed to cry anymore.It's one thing to do it, and it's another thing to be scolded by the descendants of the blood relatives in front of the head of the village. Even if they can get the money today, this old face will be completely humiliated. In the village, I can no longer hold my head up and be a human being.

And this is exactly the original intention of Su Chunsheng and the others to take this action after discussion - even if the money is not returned, the Liu family must be punished and pay the price for greed!
But Su Chunsheng didn't want to stop there.

"Even today, I have no intention of filing a lawsuit. Otherwise, I would go to the county hall to beat drums and cry for grievances. It is only because Su and Liu have no clans in Xiejiao Village that I invited them to the village. The two respected elders in the family are still talking about human relationships." Su Chunsheng owed Lizheng and the village head, "Since the Liu family doesn't care about human relationships, even worse than strangers, why should we recognize this relative? ?! It’s better to just break the road!”

"Cutting off the road" is a countryman's term, which actually means "breaking off friendship". As a relative, "breaking off friendship" also implies another meaning, that is, no matter what help the Liu family needs in the future, if the Su family does not provide If they help, then the public opinion can no longer condemn them, let alone take advantage of the prosperity of the Su family. Even Father Liu and the Liu brothers are no longer the elders of the children of the Su family. Of course, The Liu family did the same to the Su family.

Su Chunsheng's statement can be said to be a threat to the Liu family, but in terms of the current situation of the Su family, how effective can such a threat be? !

Yuan Bao noticed that Father Liu raised his head again, as if he wanted to persuade him to say something, but after hesitating for a while, he still closed his mouth.

Su Chunsheng simply turned to Father Liu, "I will call you grandfather for the last time today, and I want to ask you, is it because of the current difficulties of the Su family that you are sure that our Su family will not develop one day?! I just thought in my heart that for the 50 taels of silver, it is worth breaking the law with the Su family?! I made it very clear that even if the Liu family is inconvenient for a while, as long as they accept this account, even if they only pay one or two yuan a month from now on. Two hundred dollars can show that our affection is still there..."

This time, Su Chunsheng added temptation after threats.

The Su family had an accident this time, and there was a lot of movement. It can be said that it attracted the attention of the whole village, and the three children of the Su family finally made these eyes turn into surprise.

No one could have imagined that the few little children of the Su family could solve the matter so satisfactorily, it was even considered a luxury.

Up to now, there are still many people who are secretly regretting that they didn’t compete for the job of carrying Su Youwang’s coffin and helping Su’s family. You know, in such a small village, they can earn one or two hundred Wen in just a few hours. That's quite rare!

The number of congratulatory gifts Liu Guirong received during confinement this time was unexpectedly large, and the gift givers only took a fancy to Yuan Bao's generous gift in return.

The Su brothers are not the only ones who can settle accounts. The Su family's extravagant expenses have been noticed by too many people and kept in their hearts.

It is conceivable that after this incident, if there is anything wrong with the Su family, it will definitely achieve a response effect in the village.

Although Yuanbao has not gone out for more than half a month because of Su Chunsheng's illness, and the little girls have not come to Su's house to learn how to play nets, but Yougenniang goes out to buy things every day. She is very popular, and now she is in Su There are too many people who help her at home and greet and chat with her.

Yuan Bao knew that all kinds of legends about the Su family were circulating in the village. Some people said that Su Youwang was beaten to death because he cheated others of a large sum of money. down.

Others said that Yuan Bao had learned a peculiar female celebrity skill, and was taken by the Ni family, who offered a large sum of money to buy her embroidery.

Some people also said that Yuanbao is a lucky star, and her birth date is very special. The Ni family is willing to pay a lot of money to buy her into the house.

The above versions are fairly reliable, but there are even more rumors about those gods, gods and monsters that are simply unreasonable, and it is simply impossible to listen to them. That is, the Su family suddenly became rich and mysterious.

At this time, Su Chunsheng proposed a lure to the Liu family. It can be said that the intensity was very strong. Full of expectations.

Father Liu was also very disturbed at this time. Although he didn't believe those rumors, he remembered that Liu Guirong came to ask for money for the first time but failed. I didn't ask for the money back the second time, but after two hours, Su Chunsheng came back from the town with a carriage of things, and invited the doctor from the town. God knows, what will happen to the Su family after tonight Variety? !

Father Liu also knew that the Ni family’s carriage would stop at the alley every once in a while, and the servants of the Ni family would send large and small packages to the Su family, but they never saw anything brought out. This is not a rumor , but many people saw it with their own eyes. Even if the Su family is selling their children, their children are too valuable, right? !
Moreover, the Su family has not seen any missing children so far!

In the past, the Liu family was not indifferent to the change of the Su family getting richer and richer, but since Yuan Bao arrived at the Su family, no matter how rich the Su family was, it was difficult for the Liu family to get money from the Su family. The reason why I made up my mind to cling to the 50 taels of silver and not let go!

But now that Su Chunsheng said this, does the Liu family still have a chance to get more silver than 50 taels from the Su family? !

Father Liu hesitated deeply, his old face was wrinkled into disrespect, but he finally said tremblingly, "Chunsheng..."

But at this moment, Li Zheng, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said, "Father Liu, you have to think about whether to take out the money you got, or to covet the invisible favor in the future." Ah, since we are all here today, if you accept this account, you will have to sign it!"

Yuan Bao glared at Li Zheng unabashedly. Was this guy deliberately disrupting the situation after receiving their favor fee?Did the Liu family give him more benefits?impossible!

Su Chunsheng stood in front of Yuan Bao, so that Li Zheng couldn't see Yuan Bao's current appearance, while Su Chunsheng had a thoughtful expression on his slightly drooping face.

Father Liu paused, took a look at Lizheng first, then sighed and continued, "Chunsheng, since this is the case, let's do as you say!" In a threatening attitude, he changed his mind and changed his tune.

Su Chunsheng took a steady breath, took out the pen and ink that came with him, and began to write notes.

In the document, Su Chunsheng emphasized one point: from now on, the Liu family and the Su family will no longer communicate. As long as there is contact, even if the Su family including Liu Guirong is crying and begging for contact, the Liu family will recognize it. I owed the 50 taels of favor money, and I had to pay it back!

After reading this document, Yuan Bao felt that even if the Liu family was wronged in this matter, Su Chunsheng's request was actually quite unreasonable.

But I don’t know if Old Man Liu didn’t understand the meaning of the document, or he made up his mind to keep the 50 taels of silver recklessly. In short, he quickly signed the document, and Li Zheng and the village head were even more sloppy. After flirting with it, he signed his name on the spot of the witness.

Although the Su family suffered a loss this time, the three children did not feel very disappointed. On the one hand, they were mentally prepared for this result, and on the other hand, they also tried their best. The most important thing is that their current Life is not difficult.

In fact, the failure of this matter was not caused now. From the moment Liu Guirong handed over the money to the Liu family, the money was doomed to be irretrievable, but the person who makes Yuan Bao most angry now is not Liu Guirong The culprit was Lizheng, an incompetent bastard!
"What on earth does he mean? Is there any enmity with us? Or is he deliberately plotting against us? Is there someone as black-hearted as him?! No, I have to go and get back our two taels of silver!" Just entered Yuan Bao couldn't help complaining as soon as she entered the courtyard of Su's house, but she hadn't lost her mind yet, so her voice was not loud.

Su Chunsheng pulled Yuan Bao, "You must not go."

Yuan Bao just talked about it verbally, but he didn't care about it. With the strength of Su Chunsheng, he followed them into the house.

Su Qiusheng was also resentful, "Brother, Lizheng's attitude today is really wrong, so don't you get angry and don't think about the reason?"

"What's the use of being angry?" Su Chunsheng glared at Su Qiusheng first, "You are a big one anyway, so don't add fuel to the fire here!" He said dully, "As for the reason, I really haven't figured it out."

It was already past dinner time, and Niang Yougen had been waiting for them for a long time, so she entered the room and asked, "Will you three go to the main hall to eat, or just eat in this room? We have already eaten with Qiaoqiao." It's over." When the three children left, they specifically asked them not to wait for dinner tonight.

"What to eat? I'm so full of anger!" Yuan Bao pulled Yougenniang over, and began to tell her what happened at Liu's house today. Yuanbao had long regarded Yougenniang as a relative, and thought it was nothing good It was hidden from the truth, and in the future, Genniang will be needed to publicize the complete severance of the Su and Liu families!
The Su brothers and Yuan Bao had the same idea, so naturally they would not stop them, and they were still filling in the details.

Originally, the three children only talked about it out of the need to vent their emotions, and did not expect to get any substantive help from Yougenniang, but they did not expect that Yougenniang would solve the mystery for them all at once.

"Chunsheng, Auntie asks you, if you get the title deed for the Liu family's three acres of land, and it says ten taels of silver per mu, how much silver do you plan to ask the Liu family to repay?" , asked.

Yuan Bao was impatient, "Of course it's 20 taels!" Such a simple math question, do you still need to ask it?
"Hey," You Genniang sighed, "It's over, isn't it because the Liu family is willing to use the land to pay off the debt!"

Su Chunsheng lowered his head, "Auntie, thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't know where I went wrong. After all, I'm still young, and I can't think carefully about things!"

"Crack!" Su Qiusheng slapped his forehead, "Me too, why didn't I expect that there would be a commission for buying land. If I had known this, it would be fine to calculate the land deed at 45 taels of silver. We will not lose money!"

"It's a loss!" Su Chunsheng reminded.

Yuan Bao jumped anxiously, "Why can't I understand what you are talking about? I'm going to die of anxiety!"

Su Chunsheng explained it to Yuan Bao.

It turns out that there is an unwritten rule in every place, that is, when buying and selling land, the local Lizheng or the village chief will charge a certain amount of "benefit fee", which is the "pumping" just mentioned by Su Qiusheng, which is equivalent to the "fee" in modern society. rebate".

Generally speaking, pumping water accounts for about [-] to [-]% of the land price, and at most it is no more than [-]%. But how much is the pumping water in Xiejiao Village? Yougen Niang, who bought the land, gave the answer: half!

That is to say, originally, the buyer paid 15 taels of silver to get the first-class land of [-] taels of silver per mu, and only [-] taels of silver was reflected in the land deed, and the remaining [-] taels of silver was paid without a receipt. , all went into the purse of Lizheng, the handler. As for how he and the village chief will be divided, others don't know.

"This... this..." Yuan Bao's eyes widened in surprise, "Can this be sold?"

Yougen Niang said, "Why not, Yuan Bao, look, there is wasteland to the east of our village? When I told you that the first-class field was 15 taels of silver per mu, did you think it was expensive?"

Yuan Bao was dumbfounded.

Yes, the soil in Xiejiao Village is fertile, and there are 15% of the top-grade fields. At the beginning, she also accepted the price of [-] taels of silver. enough money.

Now that Yuan Bao has her own property rights, and heard that the ideal of the Su brothers is to buy land, Yuan Bao still thinks that the more than 30 taels of silver in the supernatural power will be used for daily household use. Buy some land!

But now...

Su Chunsheng calculated for Yuan Bao the account of the Liu family's three mu of land today.

If according to what Yuan Bao said, the three mu of land is only calculated according to the 30 taels of silver on the land deed, the Liu family will naturally not agree, and when the time comes, there will be trouble, and Li Zheng's face will not look good.

In particular, Yuan Bao and the identity of the maidservant of the Ni family made Lizheng a little jealous. This morning, Lizheng weighed the two taels of silver given by Su Chunsheng in his hands. In fact, what he weighed was not the silver, but the forces behind the Su family. .

It is very likely that Lizheng made up his mind at that time: one thing more is worse than one thing less, and the debts of the Su and Liu families will be ruined, and everyone will be clean. Anyway, even if the Su family wants to return the land, he will not benefit.

If it is calculated according to what Su Qiusheng said, it is still based on 15 taels of silver. Although the Liu family and the Su family can accept it, Lizheng has lost money. But Zheng didn't get the 15 taels of water he deserved.

Yuan Bao recalled that Xiejiao Village was a very young village, but it only had a history of more than 50 years. The people living in it were basically "foreigners" with mixed surnames, and there was not even a decent big clan. A dominance situation.

The first Lizheng was the father of the current Lizheng, who is still alive, and because Xiejiao Village is far away from other villages, this Lizheng actually manages only Xiejiao Village. As the population of the village increases, There are almost no idle fields in the village now, so it's no wonder that Li Zheng seizes every land transaction to grab money!
"Oh my God, there are so many fields in the village, how much money do the father and son have to spend there!" Yuan Bao couldn't help sighing.
