Chapter 274 is about to give birth

In terms of the market price in a good year, an average family can collect shi of grain per mu.

If calculated according to the disaster year, one mu of land can harvest up to thirty stones.

Now the magistrate wants to collect shi from each family. Logically speaking, this idea is very objective.

These days, who doesn't have a few acres of land? We collect grain, but we only collect grain from one mu of land, doesn't it sound reasonable?

But in practice, it is not easy.

The first step is stuck.

In a rich family, thirty shi is nothing. There are many people in the family, and this amount of food is not enough for their family to fill their teeth.

So, the problem is not here.

Instead, it happened to ordinary people.

Are the rich people’s land planted by their own people? No, it’s the tenants who plant the land. The tenants don’t have their own grain, and they rely on the rich to distribute grain to them all year round.

But now they have to collect grain from door to door, and they can't get it out at all.

Just like that, at night, in the dead of night, the cries of many families can be heard frighteningly.

It was the cry of being unable to live.

One after another, in the next few days, the gates of the county yamen and state government yamen came to avenge grievances and make troubles.

It can be said that this work task was almost aborted before it was fully launched.

In Peach Blossom Village.

Zhu Wuliu came back after inquiring about the news from the outside, and told Mr. Sun and many others about the matter at hand.

With this current situation, some families are really happy and some are sad.

They were refugees, and this time the food collection did not reach them, and the prepared food suddenly disappeared.

Fortunately, they dug the cellar overnight, and all the grain had to be put in, and they couldn't take it out when it wasn't necessary.

It must not be seen by anyone.

When the villagers heard this, they also had this fluke mentality. Now they don't have to worry about running out of food. Even if the relief food doesn't reach them, all the members of their village will be safe and sound.

"No, Uncle, we don't have any food, what if Xiao Man dies of starvation?"

Zhu Wuliu waved his hand, "Don't worry, you won't die from starvation, even if we stock up on food, we may not be able to feed Xiaoman.

Still have to find another way. "

Sun Peifang looked at him, "How? What way? What are you going to do?"

Zhu Wuliu pushed him aside, "For the safety of our family and the safety of our village, we still have to find a way to deal with food rations, otherwise I think the riot will soon be involved.

Did you see my shoe uppers? They were trampled to pieces by those mobs. Those people are not afraid of death. I have seen them all before. There are many familiar faces. "

"I thought about it, you still have to go with me to Mr. Wang's side."

Zhou Huan pointed to the tip of his nose, "Me? What are you and I going to do?"

Zhu Wuliu was silent for a while, then raised his head again, "We can't give food now, the tree is so big that it attracts the wind, so we originally wanted to do it secretly, but we will give it when everyone pays the food.

But now the common people hand in very little. If our village is passed on to outsiders, it will be too conspicuous.

Doesn't this mean telling the thieves that there are many good things in our village?

So, this is what the old man thinks, don’t you know how to make those weird cheeses, that stuff is very filling, can you make more and send them over. "

"It can be done, but it can be done, but,,, how can there be so much milk in a short time, those victims are not ten, hundreds, how can we cows make so much cheese?"

Zhu Wuliu didn't accept these words, so if he wanted a cow, he was afraid that there would be none. Isn't it just a waste of money, and asking the people in the palace to pay for it was no cheaper than buying food, and it was no less worry-free than watching the victims make trouble.

But Zhou Huan disagreed, and said again, "Okay, let's pretend that we have cattle, but how do we transport them. It's summer, and when they get to the place, it's all rotten. Do you think the people on the other side live?" It's too long."

"Look at what you said, isn't this what we want to solve the problem.

Hey, I miss Xiao Man in my heart, and on a deeper level, I also miss Shizi Ye and Jiang He.

Tell me that these two people are from wealthy families, so what should we miss.

But after a fateful encounter, I remembered how kind the concubine Shizi was to our family, and she supported us when we were in trouble.

In and out of the village, we have never been treated as outsiders.

Including her grandmother and mother, these few contacts found that they are all excellent people.

Let's put it this way, this family looks like real people.

I really want to enter the meager power. "

Zhou Huan didn't speak, and looked at Zhu Wuliu's slumped face, which was short of the word "tired" written on it.

In ancient times, cars and horses were slow, and the ancients had few friends around them. If they missed someone, they would really miss it forever.

Unlike Zhou Huan's previous life, when I miss you, I want to see you, I can make phone calls, I can make videos, and if I miss you like a river, I can ride the Fuxing to feel the speed of 350 kilometers per hour and fly to the other party's side.

Zhu Wuliu couldn't do these things, he could only scare himself every day and night.

How many times I dreamed back at midnight, I was woken up with fright.

Xiaoman was caught by a stranger to fill the river.

The young master was hunted down by Japanese pirates.

The son of the world was washed away by the Yellow River, and the concubine's baby lost her father when she was born.

His imagination is enriched at night, and it is how the person he misses is miserable.

Zhou Huan said to Zhu Wuliu: "Otherwise, I will go to the city with you to ask, and talk about our thoughts with adults.

Maybe we can't get lucky, but they can. "

Zhu Wuliu's eyes lit up, and the two hit it off immediately, and they left immediately.

As soon as he lifted his foot, someone ran over from the door wheezing and panting.

It was Sun Dazhuang who carried Cuiyun on his back.

Seeing Cuiyun's expression was wrong, Zhou Huan hurried over to ask.

Before asking, Cuiyun let out a soft cry.

"Girl, girl, go and see my concubine Shi Zi, the concubine Shi Zi is about to give birth, and she is crying and calling for the girl to pass quickly."

Several people stood there in a daze.

If you are about to give birth, don't you go to the midwife to find Zhou Huan?

But it was too late to say that, she put Zhu Wuliu on her head, called Xi Bao, and rushed to the carriage.

On the way, while Sun Dazhuang was driving, Cuiyun was crying and had no time to care about her sprained ankle when she ran out, so she just told Zhou Huan the exact words of the concubine Shizi.

"I don't know why the concubine heard about the situation in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, Xu was thinking about the son and the young master, and suddenly couldn't bear it.

Only then did I find the doctor. "

"Girl, please explain clearly, what does that have to do with my Zhou Huan? Didn't your family bring their mother-in-law here from Yanjing?"

Cuiyun nodded, and cried: "Yes, but because the whole family kept this matter from the old lady and the first concubine, the first concubine and his wife got angry and said that they didn't need these women to serve them.

The imperial concubine has a stubborn temper and insists on listening to the truth.

But Madam and the others didn't say it before, but now they don't believe it anymore even though they said Shi Zifei. "

Zhu Wuliu was sweating anxiously, after all, he was born prematurely.

Could it be that his dreams are about to come true one by one?
Ah bah bah!
