The Prestigious Family’s Young Lady and the Farmer - Chapter 127

There were not many relatives in the Yang family, and there were no relatives in the He family’s natal family. In addition to the extraordinary period, the He family stayed at home for the first seven days before being buried.

It has been seven days since Yang Tiezhu came back, and Lin Qingwan saw him with a shaggy beard and a thin face, as if he was a different person. There must be some sadness, and I still have to be tossed about it.

After Yang Tiezhu came back, he ate a few bowls of rice, and then fell asleep. I slept all day and night before waking up. Lin Qingwan asked the Yao family, only to realize that Yang Tiegen was almost like him, and he was tossed badly.

The rules of the Daxi Dynasty, heavy mourning (Zhan Di, the heaviest of the five clothes) need to be kept for 27 months. It also means that within three years, you cannot drink or eat meat, sing, dance, or have fun, marry a wife or take a concubine, have sex, or visit friends and guests.

Of course, the rules here in the countryside are not as serious as in other places, that is, it is more taboo not to be married, not to visit friends or visit other homes.

As for eating meat and drinking alcohol, it depends on whether the individual attaches importance to the deceased or filial piety. Even if you really eat and drink, no one cares about you. As for intercourse, there seems to be no taboo here. Of course, it is best not to make a baby or something. At that time, when others hear that this baby is serving neutrons, they will recruit others to pay attention to it (this stress, in general, means talking and talking).

The clothes at home were changed to plain colors, and the furnishings, anyway, the more fancy things were put away, and then the filial piety was kept at home.

Said to be filial piety, it is no different from normal days, except that you can’t wear brightly colored clothes, the food at home is no different from usual. Because there is still an early malnourished pregnant woman, Lin Qingwan, who wants to supplement her nutrition, Yang Tiezhu has never eaten meat.

During this period, Daju came to visit.

Because other people have filial piety, Daju didn’t enter through the front door, but entered from the small workshop. Then Lin Qingwan, who was called by the Yao family, went to the small workshop and told her that something happened.

This military service caused a lot of noise in the whole village, and Daju’s family was also lucky. Chunshang’s family began to quarrel, and finally separated in the summer. Fortunately, the family has been separated, otherwise Daju’s three sons in the family will have to make trouble again. After the separation of the family, the young couple also had a comfortable life. The men planted the land at home, and Daju worked in a small workshop to supplement the family, and the days were peaceful and happy.

Lin Qingwan also knows about the Daju family. Hearing that Daju had something to look for, she passed by.

I went there to find out that Daju was here to help Liuzhi ask the small workshop whether there was any manpower. Liu Zhi’s family was also tossed fiercely in this corvee incident. Her father-in-law is only 50 years old, and the willow man is a mature man. There are two people in the family who are within the scope of recruitment.

In order not to serve, they can only use silver instead. Two heads are thirty taels of silver, and Liu Zhi’s family is considered to have better conditions in the village. He almost emptied his family and made up enough money.

It is said that in order to collect money, the willow branch cried and borrowed some from Daju’s house. Daju works in a small workshop, and usually saves a private house, still has a few taels of silver in his hand. Because his family was not in the recruitment area, he borrowed most of the money in his hand to Liu Zhi, and Father Liu Zhi asked other relatives to piece together and borrow some to get enough.

At this time, it is very difficult to find someone to borrow money, and every household is short of money. At that time, it was really impossible to borrow money, and Liu Zhi even planned to come to Lin Qingwan, but thinking that Lin Qingwan had funerals at home, he was not embarrassed to come over. Fortunately, Liu Zhi’s family’s money gap was not large, so Father Liu Zhi later borrowed some from other relatives to make up.

But after this time, Liu Zhi’s family was completely hollowed out, and there was still a lot of money owed outside.

Liu Zhi wanted to see if Lin Qingwan needed manpower here. If so, she also imagined Da Ju doing this to help her family. Liu Zhi didn’t know what Daju did for Lin Qingwan. Daju never told her, nor did she ask. But Liu Zhi thought, since Daju is capable, she is also capable.

Lin Qingwan didn’t hesitate after listening to Daju’s words, so she asked Daju to sign a contract with Liuzhi before coming. If you can sign, come here.

Daju nodded after listening, saying that Willow was willing to sign the contract. Before she came to help Liu Zhi ask, she talked to Liu Zhi about signing the contract. After Liu Zhi agreed, she came to see Lin Qingwan.

Lin Qingwan asked Daju to bring willow branches when he came to work tomorrow.

Luoxia Village is still rioting, and there is no way to avoid it. Those who have the money put together money to use silver for their military service, and those who have no money are making trouble at home to see which brother is allowed to die.

The farther behind, the noise gets worse, and some people even reluctant to bear their sons and start selling land for money.

Otherwise, it’s really a critical moment of life when the slaughter kills people. If selling a house and selling land can change the life of a son, there are still many elderly people willing.

As for the future livelihood, I will talk about it later, I can’t just watch my son go to death.

However, it seems very difficult to sell land at this time. Everyone has the same idea. There are people selling land in all ten miles and eight townships. The price of land has fallen again and again, and few people can sell it.

When the land can’t even be sold, it is really hopeless.

Because of the small workshop, although Lin Qingwan’s family had just had a funeral, they could still hear a lot of things outside.

Lin Qingwan still had more than two months to give birth at this time, which was when she needed a lot of activities, so she would often walk in the big courtyard of the small workshop while chatting with several other women.

Although they were talking about the sky, the faces of several women were not good, and they seemed very worried.

The Yang family and the Yao family are nothing, and there are no relatives at home, and the Yao family’s maiden brother is no longer conscripted. But Father Yang, two daughters-in-law, Daju and Liuzhi, all have their parents.

Nie Ertang’s wife came here since the morning, her expression hesitant. Although I was chatting with everyone in my mouth, I was absent-minded all the time. I saw Lin Qingwan several times and stopped talking.

Afterwards, he couldn’t hold back his breath and said, “Qing Wan–“

Lin Qingwan looked up suspiciously, “What’s the matter, sister-in-law Nie?”

Nie Ertang gritted her teeth, “Qing Wan, does your family plan to buy land?”

As soon as this was said, everyone was quiet, and everyone could not help but think of the same thing.

Nie Ertang’s wife has always been a cheerful temper. Now that she has spoken her words, she is ready to speak.

“That’s the case. My family wants to sell the land for money. Now the land is very difficult to sell outside. There is really no way to do it. I just wanted to ask your house.”

The sister-in-law of Nie Er Tang’s family also wanted to sell the land, but when she went out to inquire, she realized that the land is not so easy to sell now. The price of land is so depressed, it is not easy to deal with it.

After all, it’s her own family, and Nie’s sister-in-law is also very worried. But in order to raise money, the husband’s family not only emptied the family, but also borrowed a sum of money from the Yang family. How could it be possible to help her family. And the only people who knew Nie Ertang’s sister-in-law were the two brothers Yang Tiezhu who had some money in their hands. After working in a small workshop for so long, she still knew it in her heart.

It’s just that she was too embarrassed to ask someone to help her parents borrow money, after all, Nie Er Tang’s wife still had her own consideration. On the one hand, she is a married girl, and on the other hand, she is afraid that she will be dragged by her parents and have no money to pay, and it will be difficult for herself to be caught in the middle. She thought that it was her natal family who wanted to sell the land, so she wanted to ask Yang Tiezhu’s brothers if they could buy it.

Although the words were spoken out, Nie’s sister-in-law was also very embarrassed, because she also knew that Lin Qingwan’s family did not cultivate land, so why did they buy land? She was too forced to ask such abrupt words.

So after the question was over, she expected Ai Ai to add: “If there is no such idea, then forget it…”

Lin Qingwan pondered for a while, and did not say whether to buy or not, “Well, let me go back and discuss it with Tie Zhu, and I will give you a letter tomorrow.”

Nie’s sister-in-law was overjoyed, “No matter what, thank you first. If you are really embarrassed, forget it.”

Lin Qingwan also knows that it is not easy for Nie Ertang’s wife to open this mouth, so she soothed: “Don’t say that. After all, everyone is relatives. You can help or you have to help, but I will pay for it. Ask the wise man.”

After hearing this, Nie’s sister-in-law felt relieved. Because Lin Qingwan was able to say that, she would at least help her grasp the eighth floor.

…

When eating in the evening, Lin Qingwan said this at the dinner table. Yang Tiegen’s family, Yang’s family and Xia Dacheng’s family were eating together.

The reason why everyone got together is because of what Nie Ertang said.

In fact, what Nie’s sister-in-law said was nothing.

I really asked for it. After all, there is a relationship between relatives, and it is about human life to help or to help. And Lin Qingwan also admires the open and bright person like Nie Ertang’s wife. At least other people didn’t ask you to borrow money because you had money, but wanted to sell you her natal land.

Of course, everyone is not only because of Nie Er Tang’s wife’s family, but also other things.

Everyone has heard the news about many villagers in the village selling land to collect money. The land is very hard to sell, and the price is very low, everyone knows.

Many people in the village are desperate because of the severe pressure on land prices.

This is truly desperate, because the most valuable lifeblood of farmers is left to make a living. Under the circumstances that even the land cannot be sold, the poor people who can only eat in the land are really desperate.

The atmosphere in the village is even more sluggish than some time ago. At the beginning, it was noisy, panicked, and sad. What I struggled with was just reluctance and willingness. But now it is deadly silent, because it is useless to be willing, the land cannot be sold, or it can be sold at too low a price to raise money, so everyone is desperate.

Seeing these Yang Tiezhu and others feel very uncomfortable. After all, they are folks in a village who have lived together for decades. Although these people are good and bad, the whole village is enveloped in despair, and no one can remain unaffected.

But I have limited abilities. How can I help? Can I lend them money?

It must be impossible. Everyone is not the Virgin. Can you lend this or not? What’s more, they don’t have the money to lend to the entire village, and no one wants to make trouble for themselves.

Everyone knows that if the brothers Yang Tiezhu were not for their filial piety, it is estimated that many people came to borrow money.

Someone from the Yang family had already come to borrow money, but the Yang family did not borrow. It is not only because the Yang family who borrowed the money looks down on the Yang family, but also because she knows that once the opening is opened, more people will come back.

When the time comes, it will not be borrowing money to help others, it will be borrowing grudges.

What’s more, the Yang family didn’t have much silver in his hands. The total amount was less than two hundred taels. Once the opening was opened, who would he borrow? Anyone who borrows it will fall into it! I can only find an excuse to say that the old man Yang Er’s family also needs money, and the family’s money has been lent to them long ago.

The money was not borrowed, and Yang felt guilty. The past two days have been talking about whether I did something wrong, after all, the folks in the village.

Everyone is in the same mood, which one is not struggling?

What Nie Er Tang’s wife said is to open a skylight for everyone, so that she can do her part without causing too much trouble for herself.

Since ancient times, borrowing money has been a very headache. It’s okay if you have money, but if you don’t have money, can you still come to your door and put your harsh words? After all, people in the village are poor, and everyone knows that. It’s okay to say one two two two, one move is tens of liang of silver, even if you dare to borrow it, others may not be able to pay it back. Buying land is different. The land will not depreciate in your own hands, and you are not afraid that people will not pay you back.

What’s more, not everyone can help, it depends on the person. Being able to sell the family land to save his son’s life shows that the parents in the family will not be too bad.

Yang Tiezhu and Yang, who were born and raised in Luoxia Village, thought a lot, but Lin Qingwan didn’t think so much. Her thoughts are very selfish and simple–

Everything is focused on reducing her own troubles. If she can help others without trouble, she doesn’t mind. Now, in her opinion, buying land can not only save money in her hands, but also do good deeds.

Such behavior is good.
