After the Mid-Autumn Festival, everything went on as usual.
Apart from Lizheng knowing the separation of the Dai family and Ding family, no one else really knew.
Rushing here, Lin Su's impression of Wu Shan has improved a bit.
After all, this person doesn't talk too much, he doesn't talk everywhere.
The inn is still very busy in the morning, and all the workers on the mountain eat breakfast here. After sending away the guests on the mountain, Lin Su began to teach Wule cooking.
Song Jinhua and the others both went to the mountains to pick mushrooms.
Because Houshan was bought by Ling Muchuan, everyone used to pick mushrooms and wild fruits.
But outsiders are not allowed to enter the mountain. If you want to buy something for money, you can only go to the big back mountain in the village.
Can't walk inside, there are beasts or something.
August passed, and on the first day of September, Wu Shan began to collect taxes and grains from house to house.
At this point, everyone in the village knows the news of the increase in taxes and grains.
Those who disagree, those who refuse to hand in, those who curse...
For a while, the village was very lively.
Just as Lin Su said, their wasteland does not need to pay taxes and grains, but the four acres of land have to be paid for.
Xiao Nizi had prepared the tax and food with Lian Qi a long time ago as Ling Muchuan and Ling Muyang had instructed.
Wu Shan collected tax and grain, and the Ding family and Ling family were happy. As for the others...
Of course, Wu Shan didn't pay it at his own home.
Dai Liang and Dai Quan didn’t bother with this. They went to the mountains to pick mushrooms, ferns, and fruit...
The vegetable garden has stopped. Recently Song Jinhua and the others are busy drying the shredded beans, cucumber money, dried potatoes, dried eggplants...
As for the Dai’s tax food, because Dai’s mother blocked it, it was delayed.
Not to mention a few rations that went out of the family, not to mention it at all.
Or Dai Cheng took advantage of his mother's sleep, came to the brothers to divide the food.
To be honest, the rest of the grain, excluding the tax-paying grain, and one family's chewing grain for another year, there is really not much left.
I thought that if there were too many, selling some to the fourth child to talk to his wife, now it is impossible.
Looking at the fourth brother apologetically, he whispered.
"Sixi, my eldest brother can't help you anymore, you marry a daughter-in-law... eldest brother really can't get the money."
When Dai Xi heard this, he shook his head hurriedly and said without paying any attention.
"Big brother is too far-sighted. I know all of our brothers. I don't have to worry about getting married. I want to get married first, and then talk."
Dai Cheng had heard from his second brother a long time ago that Chuanzi's wife would go to build an inn somewhere else in her new year. Now the fourth brother said so, sighed heavily, said.
"You are old and have your own opinion, brother... support you."
Si Xi smiled and nodded. He took the food to the inn with Wule.
Lin Su told them yesterday that they will eat at the inn afterwards and take the rations.
Lin Su bought the rest at the market price.
In fact, everyone knew in their hearts that this was deliberately helping them. I went back to sleep every day, and stayed at the inn at other times, Dinghao.
The quiet days did not last long. On the morning of September 13th, the village heard the sound of gongs and drums.
The inn was not finished here, but such a big movement made the people eating too much, so they got up and went out to see what was going on.
Lin Su, Jiang Shulian and others came out of the back kitchen and looked at seven or eight yamen in official clothes standing at the head of the village.
The diners looked at Lin Su and asked kindly.
"Madam, have you paid your taxes and food?"
"Handed in, already handed in." Lin Su nodded and said.
The man listened with a sigh of relief, and looked at her and said with peace of mind.
"Fortunately, you paid it. Yesterday someone from the county came and asked about the project on the mountain. He also said about taxes and grains. It is said that there was a deadly order on them. If you don't pay taxes and grains, they will be handled as obstructing official duties. ."
Uh…
Lin Su turned his head and looked at Dai Quan anxiously.
"Have you handed it over there?"
"No." Dai Quan was also very anxious.
Upon seeing this, Lin Su hurriedly told him to go back with Sanliang. Dai Cheng can't be the master of his mother. If Dai's mother insists on not paying taxes and grains, Dai Cheng will be beaten.
He is the pillar of the big house and the backbone of the brothers of the Dai family. If there is something wrong with him, none of these four people will go to work, and there must be no accident.
Thinking of this, Lin Su handed the apron to Jiang Shulian and said.
"I'll go over and take a look, you guys are arrogant here. Go back to the ball and eat, eat."
After speaking, hurry to the end of the village. Even Qi wanted to go, but he was the accountant, and no one took money after he left, so he could only do it in a hurry...
"Duang... Duang... Duang... "
The Ya Ya continued to beat the gong and said after looking at the villagers who had gathered together.
"According to the rules of my country, paying taxes and grains for farming, and paying taxes and silver when opening a shop. It was justified. The year before last, I didn't ask everyone to stop calling me. I just thought... Now if you don't pay, you can't justify it."
"This is the court's approval. This place has an official seal. Those who do not pay taxes and grains on time will be beaten up to 30 bans and imprisoned in the county government for half a month for obstructing official duties."
"..."
"..."
"..."
After the Ya Ya said these words, the villagers didn't say anything.
You look at me, I look at you, even Wu Shan, who is doing the right thing, hurried home to get food.
Even though I'm unwilling to pay the tax and grain, I still pay it instead of getting on the board.
The big guys went home one after another, preparing to pay taxes and grains, and the sister-in-law of Ye Changlin in the village, Zhao, was just like a chicken blood, shouting in public.
"For so many years, there has been no repayment of tax and grain. Why should it be repaid? The situation was not good at the beginning, and the court said that it would be reduced or exempted, so why should it be repaid."
"Yes, why do you want to make up again? Don't listen to them. Let's talk about it. As long as we don't pay, they can't do anything to us."
"Yes, that's right."
"Don't pay, don't pay, don't pay..."
"Don't pay, don't pay, don't pay..."
"Don't pay, don't pay, don't pay..."
Because of Zhao's words, the villagers immediately made concerted efforts to shout slogans.
Lin Su looked at the dead Zhao, shook his head contemptuously, and sighed.
She still remembered what Zhao said to her when she was washing clothes.
Unexpectedly, a year has passed, still a sting. This time it was really courageous to be on the bar with the court!
Seeing that the big guys refused to pay taxes and grains, the government officials shouted slogans, and they all showed up about the guys.
The sound of "噌-啷-" made the villagers dare not speak.
The headed servant was still good-tempered, and didn't really slap the common people, but stood on a high place, full of anger.
"I repeat, this year's tax payment is the result of official documents issued by the court. You are making trouble, it is useless, you should pay it. Rather than wasting your tongue here, it is better to pay it quickly, and we will go back for business."
"If anyone is taking the lead and obstructing the collection of taxes and grains
Regarding the matter, then we are not welcome, just set up a stool at the head of the village and start fighting, absolutely not giving face. I do what I say! "
There were still some people who were not thinking about it. When they heard that they were really going to fight, you looked at me and I looked at you, and they both squinted.
Seeing that everyone did not speak, Zhao spoke again.
"Anyway, whether or not the court approves the document, we ordinary people have to live, all of a sudden..."
"Come here, take this woman down and hit—"
The headed servant was no longer polite, and directly ordered the people to accept it in front of everyone.
The Zhaos were stupid, and the villagers were stupid. No one thought that he would have to do it.
Two yamen came to Zhao's side, one on the side, and planned to put them to the front for execution.
The Zhao clan was also really pungent, aside from anything else, he slapped his hand when he raised his hand and directly slapped the Ya Ya.
How can the other one get used to it, raising his leg is just a kick, kicking the person to the ground directly, and saying.
"Instead of you, how dare you actually make an official job?"
Upon seeing this, the leader of the yakuza was also very angry. Turning to look at Lizheng Wu Shan, asked coldly.
"Whose daughter-in-law is that so unruly?"
With cold sweat on Wu Shan's forehead, he hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, and said.
"The official, forgive me, the peasant woman has never seen the world, so..."
"I haven't seen this in the world yet? I dare to go to office." The boss was a little angry, looking at the other villagers staring at him, helplessly spread his hands, and said, "It's useless for you to stare at me. This is the arrangement above."
"It's the land I planted in my hometown, and I have paid the taxes and grains. Why don't you understand? The court's approval documents are all brought over. You should be glad that I will follow me today. If you change to a separate class and have a bad temper, , Try."
"That woman obstructed her official duties, started to play official positions, hit 30 boards, and was taken to the county jail. It will be executed now."
Kill one and warn one hundred.
Lin Su sighed heavily as he looked at Zhao, who was dragged by the officials with a face of gray. Walked gently to Dai Cheng's side and whispered.
"Brother, quickly pay the taxes and grains."
"Yeah." Seeing that his parents were watching Zhao's beating, Dai Cheng trot home with his two younger brothers.
As the Zhao clan was beaten and imprisoned in the county government office, the villagers who had insisted did not insist, and went home to get food.
Even if Mother Dai didn't think about it anymore, she didn't dare to speak when Zhao was dragged away in a coma.
Neither Ye Changlin nor Ye Changqing came forward.
To be reasonable, the Zhao family is Ye Changqing's wife, but this man, seeing her daughter-in-law being beaten up, didn't even have the courage to go up and intercede.
Ye Changlin is not stingy, and he dare not commit a mess right now.
So this person is used to it.
It's easy to talk and discuss, no one listens, you have to hit the body, then you know that it's uncomfortable, and you have to implement it quickly.
What did you miss
Lin Su shook his head helplessly. After seeing the excitement, the Dai family's taxes and food were paid, and he went back with confidence.
Before taking a few steps, Mother Dai's voice came from behind.
"Chuanzi's, you wait."
Lin Su turned around when he heard the words, looked at Dai Mu and nodded with a smile, and said.
"Hello, aunt, what's the matter?"
"I want to ask you something."
"Oh, ask the auntie. I'm anxious to go back. There is a lot of work at the inn." Lin Su didn't want to deal with her, so he said everything first.
Mother Dai frowned when she heard the words, then stepped forward and said again.
"I just want to ask you, how much are the wages of Sixi and Wule?"
