Chapter 336(1/2)
The old Zhu family didn't think they would split up so quickly.
This year, my life is sad, and the taxes suddenly increase a lot, so I should join forces to keep warm.
The family should try not to separate the rations.
Especially in the autumn when everyone was busy farming wasteland, Zhu Xingde and others went out, and everyone needed to do their best to make wine, so they could not care about other things. Even if Li and Sun had a heart to separate early, they would not have the ability.
I heard that I had to raise enough wine, and Li and Sun were busy making money in a dim way. Because I had guessed that once Zhu Xingde took so many goods away, they would be restrained when they wanted to make more money when they wanted to make more money.
After all, if there are not so many shipments in the future, you can make as much as you want. You can make money.
So take this opportunity to make money.
During those days, I was so busy that even Wang was "released" in advance.
After all, Wang is a wine-making worker and is short of people.
As long as they are not foolish and the quality of the wine they brew does not decrease, Zhu Xingde and Zuo Xiaodao discussed it privately and turned a blind eye. Let Wang work and make money.
But unexpectedly, an episode appeared before Zhu Xingde and the others left.
This episode led to the separation of the old Zhu family.
What's going on?
This is not the county government that has taken over the task of transporting grain and wine. Not only do it have to recruit many porters among the people, but also many officials in the county government government have to be sent out.
However, the registration for officials is not very enthusiastic.
Some families in the county have been officials for two or three generations, and they have been passed down from generation to generation. To describe it in one word, that is, they are old fry.
When these people heard that many officials were going to go out to deliver food, they began to frequently move around, and even formed gangs in private to bully newcomers. They kept making small moves, forcing newcomers without background to register on their own, just to avoid such thankless chores.
Magistrate Li was very angry when he heard about it.
Magistrate Li kept holding his breath since his general's brother disappeared. No one was looking for trouble. He almost pissed himself to death at night. He was often so stuffy that he couldn't sleep. No need to mention these people and things that hurt him.
I heard that if the surrounding counties deliver tax grain to Yongdian County for two days late, the other party who can teach County could not raise their heads. I don’t care whether you are on par or not. If you are not happy, you will sue wherever you like.
Otherwise, County Magistrate Li is indeed a young official with a background, and he has to be young. He dares to do anything every day.
Then for this reason, Li Zhixian got angry and made a decision on the spot, "Who said that going out to deliver food is thankless? Then I will let those who actively sign up get the benefits, so that those who are smart enough to open their eyes and see."
After saying that, he posted his decision on the county magistrate's seal and released it.
This became an internal notice.
The general meaning is:
The last criminal magistrate, the county magistrate, colluded with the Liang thief to seek personal gain and illegally expanded many official houses to maintain private minions.
Yongdian County is located in a remote area, and officials from other places come to Yongdian County on business trips, but they don’t use so many official houses.
After many considerations, in order to allow officials to get better treatment and reunite with their families, some illegally expanded houses are now distributed to officials who actively sign up to deliver food to the front line to solve the housing problem.
"Emma, the house has been divided." Zhu Laosan shouted excitedly under the notice.
Zhu Laoer knew more about literacy than his younger brother. He read it carefully again and finally understood what the county magistrate meant.
To put it bluntly, it is to reward the first group of people who actively sign up, so that the applicants have no worries.
Zhu Laoer helped everyone analyze the above official article and explained in detail:
"If you die on the road to deliver food or die on the front line, third brother, if you have nothing to do, your family can still live in the official house. And if you have a son, your son can continue to be an official when he becomes an adult. If you have a son, you will also have a quota for an official, which depends on who your family will give you."
After listening to the second brother's detailed explanation, Zhu Laosan was unhappy: "We are all dead, why can you still call me okay? Second brother, you are so unlucky to speak. Bah, bah, all gods and Buddhas should not listen to my second brother's crow mouth talking nonsense."
"I'm just giving an example. If there is a situation, I'm afraid you won't know. Why is my kindness still a crow's mouth?"
After Zhu Lao Er complained, he didn't bother to continue fighting with his third brother, and looked at the words on the notice again, leaving only the heat in his heart.
Because he and his brother both signed up for a blind cat and a dead mouse, they were on the list of the first batch of houses.
The initial registration was to think about killing the tiger brothers.
Zhu Xingde was going to the front line to deliver wine. Their grandfather didn't say anything on the surface, but he was so angry that he was full of fire. His mouth was full of big cannons, and his scalp was constantly growing.
When their brothers looked at each other, Yang Manshan and even a thin literati like Luo Junxi had to follow Zhu Xingde to the front line, and the imperial examination list was also assigned to others to collect it. So how could they hide back as Zhu Xingde's brothers? Let's take care of them when they set off together.
So after chatting with their grandfather, they returned to the county. When they saw that the county was recruiting people, they signed up with their third brother when they were in a fever.
If Zhu Laoer told the truth in his heart at that time, in fact, after signing up, he would be a little disgusted and regretted it. It would be a bit interesting.
He is not afraid of going to the border to transport grain in winter. If there is no danger, it will be fine if he transports it several times. He is afraid that if he has a short time and his child is still young.
But I have signed up and there is no turning back.
And they have to try every means to go home to fool their wife, so as not to do it, and don’t let the wives complain about Zhu Xingde in their hearts. Then even they are not human inside and outside.
Zhu Laoer and Zhu Laosan's excuse at that time was forced to sign up.
The two of them explained their wife very reasonably. After all, there must be someone going there, either you or him. The two of them have shallow foundation in the county government, strong and young, so they will naturally be selected. When they return to the county, they are already notified to choose, not the kind that can repent.
After saying this lies, I felt a little guilty when facing my wife and children.
Zhu Laosan has more persuasive reasons than Zhu Laosan. He said to Li:
"Don't you want me to take another step? I'll go and deliver food, and I don't have to give anyone a gift when I come back. This is all qualifications.
If I want to move a step, I don’t believe that the people above will not see my performance. These should be the assessment criteria. Now the officials are managed by the magistrate, and they are still quite honest.
Don’t say that if you would rather spend money and do things than want me to go, where can we save items in our house?
You can't sleep for a few hours a day, and you have never slept for a day to rest in order to earn some household income. You have not added a decent new dress these years.
I feel really uncomfortable when you coax your second sister-in-law to pick up her old clothes every year. If it is possible that you will be able to do something without spending money, I cannot make a fortune to make your hard-earned money just to go that step. Our family is not as good as asking for money to do things. Then we can only accept it."
Zhu Laosan said this and Li was crying.
Li even regretted it. Is she too vain and anxious, so she made her man decide to accept the loss of being registered behind her back and want to fight for her future.
But the two brothers of the Zhu family knew that these were half-true and half-false words, so when they signed up, they didn’t have much to think about it.
As a man, he just signed up for it.
So seeing that he could be divided into a house is really a great thing. He finally has something good to make up for his family. How could Zhu Laoer and Zhu Laosan not be excited?
Especially when they knew that their wives were thinking about splitting up their families, they didn’t have a house. This time they split up their houses, they were sleepy and encountered a pillow. In the future, they didn’t have to let their wives go out to rent a house in the county, which is a guarantee.
Although the houses assigned only have the right to use the house, there is no right to buy or sell.
But this time I got a single room for each person, not the kind that I used to live together.
You should know that their house is quite big. When they come back, they are more diligent in their days and then go back and divide the large room with wooden boards and set up a few more beds. If you squeeze them seriously, you can even hold the elderly wife and children with six or seven children.
There is a public kitchen and a small courtyard behind it. It is great to raise some chickens and ducks, dry clothes and put a stack of firewood.
As soon as this internal notice was released, some people were happy and some were worried.
The happier the Zhu brothers are, the more jealous the "old fried dough sticks" are.
In this world, who would think there are too many houses? Many people have no family status, dozens of people live together for generations, and the officials' houses divided by the county government are free to live without any money, so it is also good to get them and lend them to relatives. But it is a pity for these people.
Some people were bleeding and crying.
Because there is another important explanation in the notice that officials who are not on the list and have occupied the official residence will need to move out as soon as possible within two days. Otherwise, the county government will advise people to help you move.
Generally, people who can live in the house for many years are usually more than old fry, but also thick-skinned deadbeats. After being officially announced, it is impossible to pretend to be stupid and continue to live on.
So due to such a big episode, Zhu Laoer and Zhu Laosan took the wine truck from Zuojia wine shop and ran home overnight, telling their daughter-in-law to move quickly. It doesn’t matter if they don’t go, at least they have to move their luggage first.
If you go late, even if the size of the houses in each house is roughly the same, there are still differences between north and south or east. Whether you live in the corner or main street, and the size of the back garden are different.
Li and Sun opened their eyes and heard it, and then blurted out their hearts: "Mom, why don't you separate?"
I was so angry that my aunt of the Zhu family was so angry that these two daughters-in-law were indeed not honest.
After a long period of anger, the Zhu family's aunt lay down and pretended to be sick without saying a word, but she knew that the tree was divided into big branches. The second son and the third son's family happened to have such an opportunity to move to the county, and it was useless to block it.
The people's hearts have dispersed.
On the day when the Zhu family split, Zhu Laoda went to visit Han Village and took Mr. Zhu, Zhu Xingde, and Zuo Xiaodao to his ancestral home for discussion.
The result of the negotiation on the house was that Boss Zhu fell from the sky with a famine of 75 taels.
Zhu Laoer, Lao San and Zhu Xingde sold all the houses in the Zhu family to the eldest.
Then the eldest brother compensates the family for twenty-five taels of silver.
After listening to the numbers, Boss Zhu felt like he was anemia, otherwise why would he feel a little fainted?
Why did he keep this?
Mr. Zhu said, "Then you can't worry about asking for the house. If the three families ask the boss to pay the money now, it is like asking the boss to live a life and sell him, and he won't have it. Just give it to me to write a document. As long as I live for a day, he can't be able to pay the debt. Don't worry."
Li hurriedly said: "Master, we have lived with each other for so many years. We know what the situation of our elder brother's family is. We are all brothers. We didn't dare to ask our elder brother to give money a year. We plan to make it even. Our elder brother gives each family eight to twenty taels of silver every year. Let's see if our elder brother's family can earn it. He will set the number."
Sun: "Yes, I used to think that my elder brother would give it to me within three or two years. That's because we really didn't have a house to live in when we split it up. I thought that I would earn more money by myself, so my elder brother would give the house payment. We might buy a house. This time, with the place to live and there is no need to spend money, I am not so anxious. When will I get it, when will I give it to me?"
Li looked at Sun: "..." She and her second sister-in-law didn't agree on this before. Why are you so generous, second sister-in-law? What if you only pay for it in ten or eight years?
Li was glad that thanks to Wang's absence, he didn't hear this.
Wang is completely lost at home and has never let her show up at all. The eldest brother refused to let her come out. If she was caught by her sister-in-law, she would be a deadbeat. She could really do something to give five taels of silver for ten or eight years. Sometimes that person doesn't know how to be shady.
To be continued...
