Eating big melon is so refreshing

Xiao Chunya eats melons every day, and now her family has become the biggest melon in Huangyang County. Fortunately, she is thick-skinned and heartless. She studies when she should study and practices martial arts when she should practice martial arts. She is not embarrassed, but others are embarrassed.

The eighth son of Li Dazhuang, the richest man in Huangyang County, was celebrating his first month. This son was born when he was 50 years old. He felt that he was particularly good at giving birth to sons, so he held a grand banquet and invited relatives and friends to attend his son's full month banquet.

"Father, are we related to the richest man?" Xiao Chunya looked at the invitation and asked curiously, "Is he a fool with lots of money or is he taking advantage of the opportunity to make money?"

Zhao Erlang said, "The ancestors of the Li family bought a piece of wasteland 100 years ago. When Li Dazhuang's father came to power, he found that the land contained rich iron ore, and the Li family became the richest because of this."

"Oh."

"The situation of the Li family is somewhat similar to ours. Li Dazhuang has four cousins. For some reason, his brothers can only give birth to daughters, but Li Dazhuang was able to give birth to eight sons."

Zhao Erlang said, "The main reason why Li Dazhuang sent us an invitation to attend his son's full moon banquet was to make fun of the bad things that happened in our family."

All members of the Yang family were thrown into jail. Since Zhao Yang was a married woman, her crime was reduced and she was sentenced to serve in a coal mine for a month. If she went there honestly, nothing would happen to her.

But Zhao Bei felt sorry for his wife and offered to take the blame for her. This angered the prefect, who changed the service time from one month to one year and changed Zhao Bei's registration from a good citizen to a commoner!

The descendants of commoners cannot take the imperial examinations within three generations. When Zhao Xi went to visit his stupid brother in prison, he scolded him. He originally wanted to save people, but now he asked him to split the family and send all the children away. If he wants to be a demon, then go ahead and do it!

As the descendant of the victim and a surviving orphan, the current prefect is feeling very angry. Why is his family destroyed while the murderer's sister and her husband live in harmony and reunion?

The prefect sentenced Zhao Yangshi to one month of hard labor. Anyone with a brain would know that the prefect was trying to vent his anger. One month was the lightest term of hard labor, and those in charge were all shrewd people, so they were given the lightest work to do.

But this idiot Zhao Bei happened to run into trouble and completely angered the prefect. According to the laws of the Daye Dynasty, there was indeed such a provision that the family members of the heinous murderer (including married daughters) would be held responsible for the crime and their household registration could be changed.

Zhao Erlang never expected that his father would do something stupid at the critical moment and divide the family unexpectedly. The thirty acres of land was divided into six parts, one for his parents and one for each of his five brothers, each of which was five acres.

The old house was divided equally between Zhao Bei and Zhao Dalang, and the other brothers had no share. Every brother could borrow the family's cow. In order to cope with corvée labor, Zhao Dalang and Zhao Wulang were registered in the same household, and Zhao Erlang, Zhao Sanlang, and Zhao Silang were also registered in the same household. When the time came to conscript men for corvée labor, each household only needed to select one male man.

If Zhao Wulang passes the military officer examination two years later, he and Zhao Dalang will not have to perform corvée labor. At that time, Zhao Dalang will transfer the five acres of land under his name to Zhao Wulang's name, and they will not have to pay grain tax, and the remaining population tax will be a piece of cake.

Zhao Erlang, Zhao Sanlang, and Zhao Silang were all wealthy businessmen, so they could share the cost of annual corvée labor. As long as they could pass the imperial examination in early autumn, they would no longer have to perform corvée labor or pay various taxes.

Zhao Dong acted decisively and after dividing up his nephews, he immediately found an official matchmaker to go to Liujiazhuang to propose marriage. He married Zhao Dalang to Liu Lihua and Zhao Wulang to Liu Xinhe, to prevent the women of the Yang family from having the opportunity to harm his nephews and implicate his nephews' grandchildren in the future!

It has to be said that Zhao Dong's actions were as ferocious as a tiger, confusing people from all sides who were watching the joke. By dividing the family in this way, no matter what happens to Zhao Bei and Zhao Yangshi in the future, their sons will not be implicated. Similarly, they will have no one to take care of them in their old age.

If someone else did this, they would have been scolded to death, but Zhao Dong is Zhao Bei's elder brother, and an elder brother is like a father, so any way he punishes his younger brother is legal and reasonable.

Xiao Chunya said, "What bad things have happened in our family? I think my great grandfather is very wise. Before the family was divided, the burden of 30 acres of land fell on my great uncle, who had to stay in the village for many years to do endless farm work. Anyone would have complained. Just because he is the eldest son, he should not have to live a harder and more difficult life than others."

Xiao Qiulin echoed, "You can't make a fortune by growing crops from the fields. Even if you grow high-yield potatoes, the price will plummet next year."

Xiao Chunya said, "Our family's life will only get better and better. Let's go to the Li Mansion for the banquet with our chests held high and our steps unconcerned with our relatives!"

Zhao Sanlang's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly said, "Second brother, you and your second sister-in-law can take Xiaochun and Xiaoqiu with you. Xiaoqing has a fever, so I'm worried about him so he can't go."

"Brother Xiaoqing has a fever? I'll ask Doctor Zhang to take his pulse."

"No, it's just a common fever." Zhao Sanlang tried to stop him. He always asked the imperial physician for help. People who knew him would think he was some big shot.

Doctor Zhang: I am so idle that I am swatting flies. I am so bored that I am about to doze off. I am rich and I have so much free time. If my colleagues knew, they would be so jealous.

Xiao Chunya's inner voice rang out, "Doctor Zhang is a really capable master. I have tried my best but still know nothing about medicine. I must have been brainwashed by my senior. She always said that if you learn math, physics and chemistry well, you will not be afraid of traveling around the world. Now my mind is full of explosive packs. Ordinary explosives are not very powerful. How about I study TNT?"

Xiao Qiulin's face turned pale. He regretted a thousand times why he didn't stop his sister from going to Lantian Technical School? His sister could have been a weapons research and development expert there in three years!

"What time is written on the invitation? Should we get ready to leave?" Xiao Qiulin felt it necessary to search Fat Sister's bottles and jars. It was not safe to store bombs at home. He was worried that his sister would blow up the house one day.

"You need to change into new clothes for the banquet." Jiang grabbed the fat girl at the right time and said, "You need to comb your hair and change your shoes. There is a hole in them."

Almost one pair of shoes every two months. Is she going to school or to fight? Jiang has to make a pair of shoes for her fat daughter every month. This is really a sweet trouble.

Xiao Chunya stared at her feet and smiled. She should be more careful next time because she used too much force in the fight. Otherwise, she should ask someone to make ten or eight pairs of shoes for her. She couldn't let her mother make shoes all the time and it would strain her eyes.

Xiao Chunya, who has a small fortune, is very generous with her money and is what people call a spendthrift. For a wealthy family, changing two pairs of such ordinary shoes every month is a small matter and not worth mentioning.
