The new book of the burning prairie star

The headman's speech was a little slurred at this time, "What's the matter? I..." After saying that, his body, which was sitting on the stool, fell to the ground, "Uncle headman," Yang Biao hurriedly grabbed the headman who was sliding to the ground, feeling amused and helpless, as he had come to discuss something with the headman, but he was already drunk and unconscious.

It seemed that today was destined to be a failure. He sighed and said, "Village Chief Auntie, come quickly, the Village Chief Uncle is drunk."

"How much did you drink?" When the headman's wife heard the shouting, she rushed over. Together with Yang Biao, she helped the headman to the inner room and let him lie on the bed.

"Brother Biao, you have good taste," praised the village head's wife.

Well, what did I do? I have good taste, why was I praised? Yang Biao was confused. Why did he say that? He didn't want to think about it anymore. "Aunt, the head of the village, the boy will go home first."

"Well, be nice to her. As the old saying goes, young couples grow old together. You will understand when you are as old as your uncles and aunts."

"Oh," Yang Biao finally understood what the village head's wife meant by "good taste". Xiaohua liked Qin Xiaoran and wanted to buy her. What went wrong? How come in the end, everyone said she was my wife? What kind of thing was this?

"Mom, Yang Biao spent twenty taels of betrothal gift to marry a girl from the county town." During dinner, Yang Meihua told Wang the news she heard while learning embroidery.

"What... twenty taels of betrothal gift? Oh my goodness." Wang was shocked to hear this news. Yang Biao was too wasteful. Twenty taels, not two hundred wen or two taels, was just given away so lightly. Wang felt that the betrothal gift Yang Biao paid was her own. She felt pain all over her body, especially her heart.

"Is it because your son can't find a wife? Why are you offering such a high gift?" Wang said angrily. Turning to Yang Dashan, she said, "Dad, you have to take good care of the second wife. How can a family like us dream of a girl from this county town?" According to her idea, she should return the girl from this county town and take back the 20 taels of silver. This is too much. If he looks for five wives in the nearby villages, he can marry them back.

"No matter how unexpected it was, Biao Ge'er married her. My third grandson is very capable." Zhang didn't care and said to Yang Dashan, "You'd better shut up. Even if the second wife spent 20 taels of silver on the bride price, you were not asked to pay a penny."

Yang Dashan glared at her with a sullen expression. Yang Xiaozhen and his wife pretended not to see anything and lowered their heads to eat their meal.

"Eat, eat, all you do is eat." Wang was unhappy when she saw the third branch's family. The money they handed over to the public treasury was half less than when Zhang was in charge.

"My family of four is eating here and we all paid for it. Why can't we eat?" Yang Xiaozhen got furious when he heard this.

"Hey, Third Uncle, my mother doesn't know how to talk, please don't be offended." Yang Meihua quickly spoke to comfort her. "Mom, today Uncle Jinxue helped us sell embroidery. Can you help us count how much money we sold later?"

Wang's expression relaxed a lot, "What did you embroider?" The mother, daughter and her two daughters went back into the house and whispered to each other.

"Brother, I heard that Yang Biao's wife is very beautiful." Yang Ping'an was very excited. He planned to visit his second aunt's house one day to see how beautiful the young wife was.

"Girls from the county town must be pretty." Yang Zian said enviously. He might as well go to the county town one day and find a wife.

"Hey, mom, do you think cold noodles can really be sold for so much money?" It wasn't long before Yang Biao bought a residential plot to build a house and spent a high price to marry a wife from the county town.

"He must be making money, otherwise where does Yang Biao get so much money from?" Yang Chunhua interrupted.

"I don't know if your grandma is getting old and her brain isn't working well anymore. She always goes against me and makes me worry." When Wang heard her daughter mention Yang Biao's money, she felt heartbroken and felt that something was wrong with her again.

"Mom, stop staring at Second Aunt's family. I heard that Yang Biao has opened a new household registration. Our family and hers are now two different households." Yang Meihua thought that it would be better for each family to live their own lives and not to tear each other apart. If Yang Biao passed the imperial examination one day, she could also benefit from it.

"Open a new household registration? I didn't agree to it, who allowed him to do that?" Wang gritted her teeth, "It must be the head of the village, this old guy..."

Yang Meihua interrupted Wang's curse and said, "Mother, this is permitted by the court law."

"What kind of bullshit law is this from the court? Hmm..." Wang thought that the person in the court who issued this law was such a bastard, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. Be careful of what you say." Yang Meihua was so scared that she covered her mouth.

"If the father dies and the mother is unmarried, if the son buys a residential plot or a property, he can separate from his uncles and brothers!" Yang Meihua had never been to school, she just heard it from hearsay.

"Don't go to Second Aunt's house to make trouble. The law states that after the household is established, anyone who bullies orphans and widows will be caned fifty times and exiled 2,000 miles." Yang Meihua felt a headache. It was necessary to tell Wang the consequences of making trouble. "If you are caned and exiled by the government, then there will be no chance for the eldest and second brothers to get married, and they will be widows and orphans for the rest of their lives."

"Is it so serious?" Wang was shocked. "Don't exaggerate." She couldn't read and didn't know what alarmist meant, but she had heard Ping'an say it many times.

"Mom, you can just go to the town and ask someone about this law of the court and you will know whether it is true or false. Do I have to lie to you?" Yang Meihua was really afraid that Wang would cause trouble. If she did, Yang Biao would definitely report to the police and sue Wang for bullying him because he was young. Don't let his family be destroyed by then.

On this side, the village head woke up from the drunken stupor and had a splitting headache. "Old lady, old lady, my mouth is dry. Bring me a bowl of water."

"Hey, you old man, why did you get yourself drunk? Huh?" The wife of the village head complained, "Don't you think about how old you are? You are really getting older and older. Haven't you heard that alcohol is harmful to the body? Huh?"

While scolding him, the village head's wife went to fetch a bowl of water and held it to the village head's mouth, "Next time you get drunk, I won't pay any attention to you even if you cry to death." Facing his wife's muttering, the village head didn't dare to say a word, and drank the water honestly, feeling that he was finally alive. "Where is Biao? Is he still at home?"

"It's so late now. Others have already gone to the county town to make money." The village head's wife thought that Yang Biao was a really good kid. He could support a family at this age and did not rely on anyone. He bought land and married a wife with his own hands.

"You said that Biaoge'er's young wife, why is she also just like Qiao'er and never goes out? If I hadn't visited her house today, I wouldn't have known that she had a new person." The headman's wife was puzzled, thinking that she should not be able to stay at home at such a young age.

"You went to visit her, what is that young wife doing?" The village head knew what his wife meant. Children usually can't stay at home, and if she stays at home all the time and doesn't go out, there must be something that attracts her.

"Embroidery." The headman's wife didn't know why the old man asked this.

"That's right. I also want to add something to my family. I can't just do it alone. It's great that the young couple is willing to support the family together."
