Originally, labor service could be replaced. For example, when Zhao got older, she could have her children serve in her place, or she could use money to offset part of the labor time.
But Su Yonggui and Su Sanshou were exiled. Mrs. Zhao loved her younger son. Su Sanshou took some of the money left in the family, and Su Yonggui himself took some.
In this way, the family only had three taels of silver left. Mrs. Zhao planned to let her two sons and daughter-in-law each serve for two years on her behalf, and use the remaining two taels of silver to cover the two years, so that she would not have to serve.
It was a wonderful thought, but Su Erlu and Sun had two children of their own. They were not very young, and they couldn't serve in the army. The two took out the money they had accumulated over the years, and Sun licked his face. My mother's family borrowed some more to cover the two children's working hours.
The two of them still have to serve for five years. Originally, Su Erlu was also filial and felt that he was a son, so there was nothing wrong with sharing the pressure of his mother.
But she didn't expect that the three taels of silver that Ms. Zhao finally left behind would be stolen by Su Dafu to buy medicine when she went to bed at night. Ms. Zhao's life-saving money was gone, and she was so angry that she reported that Su Dafu had a heart disease. Shout out.
Only then did Mrs. Wu find out that Su Dafu actually had a heart disease. She was scared to death. She quickly went to see a doctor, who said that she was not infected. Mrs. Wu wanted to separate from Mrs. Su Dafu. Of course, Mrs. Su was unwilling to do so and beat Mrs. Wu half to death. , only said that she wanted to leave him, unless it was death.
Su Tang has been away from Sujiatun for more than a month, and Su Yonggui's family alone has caused a lot of topics for discussion in Sujiatun.
Only the Su family is extremely grateful to the family patriarch for his decisive decision to eliminate the family, otherwise the entire Su family would be laughed at now.
Su Yonggui is already on the road to exile. Su Dafu is the eldest in the family. The Zhao family makes a lot of trouble, but Su Dafu doesn't care. Even Zhao family received a slap in the face and only said that the family will make decisions on their own from now on.
If Sun hadn't been so alert, even their private money would have been found and taken away by Su Dafu.
Of course, a beast like Su Dafu would not serve the Zhao family. Su Erlu was filial, but good things were not his turn, and bad things were his own responsibility. And with the Zhao family by his side, of course Su Erlu was not willing.
So the final result is that they all serve by themselves and no one can replace them. Su Dafu has a heart disease and he is afraid that he will die, so he does not serve on behalf of his children. After all, Wu is the mother, and after being beaten by Su Dafu, she also figured it out. , so he took on the labor of his two children.
It was also because of this that Mrs. Zhao appeared here to work. The government officials encountered these things all day long. When I first met Mrs. Zhao, seeing how old she was, I deliberately found some relief for her. of work.
It's a pity that Mrs. Zhao has a bad mouth. When she first started working, she felt tired and tired. When the yamen servants were a little polite to her, she felt that they were easy to bully and would curse others with her arms akimbo.
These government officials have no obligation to treat you well. When they see Zhao being so cunning, they won't give any preferential treatment. They just let Zhao do the same work as other young people. They also keep an eye on her more closely than others. If she doesn't do well, she will immediately Just get on the whip.
Mrs. Zhao had been beaten for more than a month, and she was forced to be honest. She did not dare to speak to the government servants, but she still cursed and was very rude to her second son and daughter-in-law for not helping her.
