- Xu Ying's house, in a dilapidated hall.
The whole family was there, frowning, blankly waiting for the end of the world.
Yesterday morning, the evil slave of the Fei family came once.
Say that Xu Ying broke Young Master Fei and asked to pay ten taels of silver for soup and medicine. The rent owed in previous years was also settled, plus the rolling interest, a total of four taels of silver, two cents and six per cent.
The family saved money on food and expenses, and finally raised a few chickens, which were ready to lay eggs. They were all taken away by evil slaves to pay off their debts.
Even, the food in the family was taken away, leaving them without rice to cook in the future.
When the evil slaves left, they said: "My lord is benevolent and righteous, and I allow you to default on the land rent. Even if the young master is broken, I won't force you to a dead end. Where can I find such a benevolent master on the whole lead mountain? It counts as your eight lifetimes." Accumulate virtue. The master said, I will give you one more day to make up the remaining money. If not, then prepare the land deed to transfer. Our master is really kind, as long as the bones of the field are left, the skin of the field will remain For your home. From now on, you must remember Master Ende!"
The whole family cried loudly.
According to the classification standard of New China, the Xu family was once rich, and can be rated as a "rich middle peasant": they have their own land, and their life is quite affluent, but they cannot afford to hire long-term and short-term workers.
But ten years ago, there was a catastrophe in Qianshan Mountain, and drought locusts arrived.
Xu Ying's grandfather and grandmother starved to death one after another, and the three fathers and brothers took the whole family to flee famine to survive.
On the way to flee famine, Xu Ying's eldest brother, eldest sister, and cousin died of starvation, and the cousin was sold to the toothmaid for food. Xu Ying's second uncle also starved to death, and her aunt remarried later. The third uncle, who is not yet married, went into the mountains and became a bandit, and there is no news of him so far.
Fortunately, he met a good official, Da Jiliang, the magistrate of the county, took office, set up a stele of cabbage, distributed porridge and food, and provided relief with work. Xu Ying's family finally survived.
After returning to his hometown, he can only borrow usury to cultivate the land.
Rolling interest, even the interest can't be repaid, and most of the land property has been taken away one after another.
All of a sudden, he changed from a "rich middle peasant" to a "lower-middle peasant" who earns a living by half-farming and half-tenancy, and has to do part-time labor.
Now that this kind of thing happens again, it seems that the only remaining land will be gone, and the end waiting for them is to become "poor peasants"
"You shouldn't let your third son study. If you farm honestly, you won't get into trouble" Father Xu had bruises on his face. He was beaten yesterday, and he muttered a few words over and over again.
Xu's mother shed tears silently: "I have to think about it, what if I get admitted to a scholar."
Xu's father did not dare to rebel against the evil slave, so he could only blame his wife: "The scholar failed the exam, and caused a catastrophe. The money for the third son to buy books and pens is better than marrying Haowa and begging for a wife!"
Haowa is Xu Ying's cousin Xu Hao.
When the second aunt remarried, it was inconvenient to carry a tow bottle, so she adopted to feed Xu's father. This year she is twenty years old and has not married yet.
Xu Hao is honest and has a dull personality. He said: "The third brother has been smart since he was a child, so he should go to school. If he becomes a scholar, our family will not have to go to the military. I can get married a few years later."
Mother Xu said in a low voice: "How about going to Xun Zhenniang and Young Master for help?"
Zhenniang is Xu Ying's older sister, Xu Zhen, who married an ordinary farmer in a neighboring village.
Father Xu shook his head and said, "What can Niang Zhen do to help? She is not yet confinement, so don't let her know about it."
The whole family fell silent again.
Only Xu Ying's younger brother, Xu Mao, a three-year-old kid, is still playing with his nose full of snot, not understanding that the sky at home is about to collapse.
Waiting left and right, Father Xu came out of the main room, squatted at the door with his sleeves rolled up, and watched the evil slave of the Fei family from afar.
Has never appeared, like the executioner's knife, always held up and not cut down.
The evil slave didn't come, but three schoolchildren waited.
Fei Ruhe is wearing a luxurious silk robe, and he can be seen as the young master of a rich family at a glance.
Father Xu was ashamed of his appearance and dared not look directly at him, so he buried his head in greeting and said, "Young master is well!"
No matter which family's young master it is, it's always right to greet first anyway.
However, Xu's mother recognized them and knew that they were her son's classmates, so she hurried back to the house to pour water: "Young masters, please drink water."
Along the way, Fei Ruhe was indeed thirsty, so he took the clay bowl and poured it. He was looking for an opportunity to come out to play, and he was too lazy to care about this kind of nonsense, so he said to Zhao Han, "Let's talk about it."
Zhao Han put down the bowl, cupped his hands and said, "I've seen uncle and aunt."
Father Xu got up quickly, nodded and bowed, and said in fear: "Don't dare, don't dare, young master, don't want to shorten the life of our farmer."
"Master, you are being polite." Mother Xu said a blessing.
Xu's mother has seen the world, she worked as a maid in Fei's family when she was young. Because he intended to seduce the master, he was kicked out by the mistress. First betrothed to a lame old widower, to beAfter her husband died of illness, she remarried to Xu Ying's father.
After Xu's mother saluted, she hurriedly asked: "Yingwa Is my Xu Ying okay? He hasn't been home for two days."
Zhao Han didn't tell the truth, but smiled and comforted him: "Xu Ying is fine, the head of the mountain pities him for being smart, and he will live in the academy from now on."
"That's good, that's good." Mother Xu finally felt relieved.
Although Xu's father complained that he should not send his son to study, he only talked about it verbally, and still hoped that his son would be successful.
Even faced with the oppression of evil slaves, the only land that was about to be confiscated, the whole family dared not let their son know, so as not to affect his son's mood to study. They didn't go to Hanzhu Mountain either, thinking that it would be better for their son to hide in the academy than to be bullied at home.
Zhao Han said again: "Uncle, Aunt, the rent and interest owed by the Xu family will never be repaid in the future."
"Really?" The Xu family couldn't believe it.
Zhao Han explained: "Grandpa Fei has died of illness, and they have no time to press for the rent. There may be major changes in the future. The acres you rented will also be confiscated as school fields in the future. The head of the mountain promised to give you a few more acres."
Father Xu knelt down with a thud, and said frantically with his forehead: "Thank you, Shanzhang, thank you, thank you, young master. From now on, we will be like cows and horses, and we will repay your kindness. Thank you, thank you"
Others kowtowed and knelt down on the ground.
Even three-year-olds are kneeling and seem to find it particularly amusing.
Seeing that all the Xu family men were injured, Zhao Han must have robbed his family as well. He didn't stop the other party from kowtowing, but left a piece of silver and asked Fei Ruhe and Fei Chun to leave silently.
The Xu family kowtowed for a long time, only to find that the three young masters had all left, and there were still broken silver on the ground.
Father Xu burst into tears, wiped his tears and said: "Good people, they are all good people, I met a good person today!"
Fei's involution has lasted for twenty or thirty years.
The main reason is that there are too many sects that have been separated, and it is impossible to twist them into a single rope, and the nearby land and business have been almost occupied by the Fei family.
If you want to continue to expand, you have to attack the same race!
When the news of Fei Songnian's death from anger came out, the nearby tribesmen took the lead.
Zhao Han has already witnessed several good scenes on the way back and forth.
"Don't move, this is my master's field!"
"Your lord? Your lord is so mad. Your wife has done a good job, and she has disgraced us, Fei!"
"If you dare to pick Tian Ji again, we will do it!"
"You still do it? Copy guys and kill them!"
""
The two groups of domestic slaves fought at the edge of the field. Tian Ji, who belonged to Fei Songnian's family, was stripped off by his clansmen and moved more than ten feet away.
Just grab it hard, it's completely shameless.
After Fei Songnian's death, only orphans and widows are left. Several daughters have already been married off, so when will we wait if we don't grab them now?
Not only that, nephews and grandnephews who are closer to Fei Songnian also came to collect debts. He said that the old man (Fei Songnian's father) had an uneven family division, that a certain shop should belong to me, and a certain house should belong to him. He also said that Fei Songnian took over the calligraphy and paintings of celebrities left by the old man.
Wearing mourning clothes, Mrs. Zhang took her son to the ancestral house to cry, but unfortunately the patriarch fell ill.
Ever since, Mrs. Zhang sent someone back to her natal family for help. Her brothers were filled with righteous indignation and led hundreds of slaves to come to seek justice.
This move aroused the Fei family's public indignation: how can outsiders be allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the Fei family? Is the Zhang family trying to snatch the property of the Fei family?
The two clans were in a quarrel, and they had already decided to file a lawsuit, which made Feng Xun, the county magistrate, very anxious.
?As a county magistrate, if you encounter a family property lawsuit, you can eat the first family and then the next family.
But it also depends on who the sufferer is, Fei's and Zhang's, Feng Zhixian dare not eat any of them, so Feng Zhixian also fell ill.
The two clans fought with weapons, resulting in several deaths.
The Fei family had a lot of people, but the Zhang family couldn't beat them, so they sent people directly to Nanchang to hand over the certificate to the inspector censor.
The inspector censor came over quickly, asked for a card, turned around and disappeared, saying that he was going to Weifu to investigate the case.
Hanzhu Academy.
Hu Mengtai sneered: "Brother Dazhao, Fei's family style really opened my eyes."
Fei Yinghuan was actually able to laugh: "Come on, let them make trouble, it's already rotten anyway, so just take off your clothes for outsiders to see clearly."
Hu Mengtai was stunned and speechless.
Fei Yinghuan shook his head and sighed: "Let's go, go to Brother Zhan to study. I figured it out, Fei is hopeless, I just want to see if I can pass the Jinshi exam and jump out. Retreat, study hard, three After the next year, I will go to Beijing for a test, and if I fail the exam, I will donate an official to be a county magistrate."
Fei Yinghuan and Hu Mengtai went to Zhan Zhaoheng to study art together.
The three of them aspired to the imperial examination, and they competed with each other in normal times, and their lives were very fulfilling.
Especially Zhan Zhaoheng, although he is only fifteen years old and has not even won the exam, the stereotyped essay can crush Fei Yinghuan and Hu Mengtai.
The Jiangxi Township Examination is difficult in hell, but for Zhan Zhaoheng, it is like getting something out of a bag. If he wins the examination in two years, Chongzhen will be able to enter the Beijing examination in four years, and maybe he will be admitted to the Jinshi first.
The three of them encouraged each other without asking about complicated matters.
As for helping to rectify the academy, Fei Yinghuan only needs to come out to express his position at critical moments as an only child, and he can easily pick up a shop in Hekou Town.Shi is hopeless, and I just need to see if I can pass the Jinshi exam and jump out. Retreat, study hard, and go to Beijing for an exam three years later. If you fail the exam, you will donate an official to become a county magistrate. "
