The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool
Chapter 74 Why should his family be exempted from taxes?
"Where is Qingcheng? Ask her to come out for dinner." Zhang Sufen said.
Old Lady Wen also agreed, "Yes, where is my precious granddaughter? Didn't she say she came back safely? I was thinking of asking her to check my pulse."
After hearing this, Ye Xiuying rolled her eyes silently in her heart. Now she has become your precious granddaughter, and you still ask her to feel your pulse, tell the truth to the yamen runners, and you refuse to testify for Qingcheng.
Seeing that Ye Xiuying didn't say anything, Wen Liang put down his chopsticks and said, "Mom, you guys can eat. I've already served Qingcheng a separate meal."
Song Jiao explained, "Madam, Qingcheng was beaten with a stick in the county government office. She has to lie down and recuperate for a few days."
When Wen Yufeng heard that Wen Qingcheng was beaten with a stick, she felt secretly happy and almost laughed out loud, but on the surface she pretended to be concerned, "Hey, is my sister okay? Did she break any bones?"
Ye Xiuying said: "It's okay, it's just a superficial wound, it will get better if you take good care of it."
Wen Yufeng secretly gritted her teeth and thought: She is so resistant to beatings, it would be good if the injuries are just bones, but flesh injuries are enough for her.
Chuyi saw Wen Yufeng gritting her teeth and knew that she was holding back something. Wen Yufeng felt a gaze and looked over to find that it was Chuyi who was looking at her. Somehow, her face started to burn. Although Chuyi was a fool, his tall and handsome appearance was indeed hard to resist.
I didn't look at her carefully before, but now I can see clearly from a closer distance. Her facial features are well-defined, her eyes are deep, her nose is high, her shoulders are broad and her waist is narrow. The most amazing thing is her pair of long and strong hands with distinct joints. Wen Qingcheng must be eating too well!
Wen Yufeng ate her meal in small bites. She felt Chuyi's eyes had moved away from her. She thought to herself: Even a fool was attracted by my beauty, and now that I've discovered him, he still feels embarrassed?
Chuyi ate a few mouthfuls in a hurry and went to the room to see Wen Qingcheng. During the meal, Boss Wen was eating while recalling the past with deep emotion.
He put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hands and said slowly: "Do you know? Back then, the family conditions were difficult, and I had to walk to the town often to sell the crops we worked so hard to grow. Every time I came back, my feet were blistered, but when I thought that the money could be used to support Aliang's education, I felt that everything was worth it."
Hearing this, Old Lady Wen couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Yes, it was indeed thanks to your elder brother back then! If he hadn't been farming all year round and going to the town to exchange food for money, and saving money to support your schooling, how could you have achieved what you have today? So, you must never forget your elder brother's kindness to you!"
Wen Liang sneered in his heart. Boss Wen did sell grain for money, but it was not for his studies. It can be said that when he was studying, except for the two years when his father was around, the rest of the time it was his teacher who helped him.
Wen Liang took a sip of water and saw that the old woman and Boss Wen were talking about the past one after another. There was obvious displeasure on Wen Liang's face.
Wen Liang interrupted them, raised his glass and said, "Over the years, I have seen who treated me well and who treated me badly, and I remember it all. I am grateful to my third uncle for taking care of Xiuying and the others. Now I have passed the examination and become a scholar, which can exempt two people in the family from corvée and the whole family from paying taxes. I will give these places to my third uncle's family."
My third uncle's family was surprised and happy, especially because they were exempted from paying the public grain tax. There had been drought in recent years and the harvests had been poor. The family had been living on the grain they had stored, but they still had to pay the public grain tax. For some families with many people, even after paying the public grain tax, the grain was not enough for the family to eat.
The eldest and third Wen looked at each other. Third Wen smiled and asked, "Second brother, then we don't have to pay grain and labor service in the future?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Wen Zhuo's face. Before Wen Zhuo could explain, Wen Liang spoke first, "The number of places is limited."
Wen Zhuo never dreamed that one day he would be able to benefit from Wen Liang's kindness. He was so excited that he kept rubbing his hands. It was true that people often say that we should do more good deeds, and now he has reaped such a great benefit.
Ye Xiuying also agreed with her husband's approach. "Uncle San, brother, your family has helped us so much. You have taken great care of us just in building the house, and you have also lent us a house to live in. We feel better to be able to repay you in this way."
Old Lady Wen's face darkened instantly. Wen Liang was her son, whom she had raised since childhood. Now it was time for him to repay her, but all the benefits were taken by other families. She could not tell the difference between inside and outside. She glanced at Wen Liang and pretended to cough: "Second brother, this is not the way to do it. Your brothers also have land. Why don't you consider your own family?"
The eldest and third Wen looked at Wen Liang together. They knew whether they had supported his studies or not. Especially the eldest Wen, he had repeatedly advised the old lady to stop Wen Liang from studying.
Now Wen Liang wants to give this benefit to his third uncle's family. Even if he wants to fight for it, he lacks the confidence. Wen Liang is different now. He is a scholar and exudes the aura of a strong man. He is no longer as easy to control as before.
Zhao Chunhua is a quick-talker. She got married late, but she doesn't know the grievances Wen Liang suffered in his childhood, so she talks about it without thinking.
"Second brother, even if our family didn't make much contribution, we still made great efforts. Mother didn't let you go to school because of the consideration of the whole family. You know what the family conditions are like. Now that you are a scholar, you just ignore your mother and brothers."
Zhao Chunhua expressed Zhang Sufen's thoughts. She had been complaining in her heart just now. Wen Liang seemed kind and gentle before, but now he was found to be so sinister. In front of their family, he gave the welfare benefits to their third uncle's family. He wanted them to watch the welfare benefits that belonged to their family being taken away!
Why is he so mean? He just wants to make them regret. Who would have thought that he could succeed? After all, there are several scholars in Qinghe County.
After that, the old lady and Zhang Sufen kept talking about the past. Ye Xiuying felt upset, so she left the table and went to Wen Qingcheng's room, using the excuse of going to the toilet.
Wen Qingcheng was lying in the room, chatting with Chuyi, but she could hear the conversation outside clearly. When she saw her mother coming in, she said, "Mom, how can they be so shameless? The decision is in Wen Liang's hands. He can give it to whoever he wants."
Ye Xiuying responded: "Alas, you keep talking about the past. Your father hates to talk about the past the most."
"Then mom, hurry out and stop them. They have so many mouths, there's no guarantee that we won't be persuaded by them."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiuying hurried out. Wen Qingcheng was afraid that Wen Liang was too concerned about filial piety, and Ye Xiuying had no opinion and would be controlled by this family, so she decided to go out and take a look.
"Chuyi, help me up."
Chuyi laughed foolishly: "My wife is in pain, I won't get out of bed"
"Chuyi, you are not listening anymore, right? Do you have your own opinion?" Wen Qingcheng lifted the quilt and moved out of bed.
When Chuyi saw that she was about to get out of bed before she was fully recovered, he couldn't help but feel nervous. He quickly reached out and carried her back to bed. He thought: This damn girl, she really makes me worry all the time!
Seeing Wen Qingcheng so stubborn and weak, yet still worrying about the family, made people feel distressed and helpless. One hand held her down, preventing her from getting up.
