MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 30 Dad, do you pee?
Chapter 30 Dad, do you pee?
Qin Yao did it right away. Without any delay, Qin Yao negotiated with Old Man Liu and cut two one-pound pieces from the remaining meat in the afternoon and reported to the village chief and clan chief.
Unowned land in the village is assumed to be owned by the villagers. The same goes for the soil. It can be used for daily use. If the amount is large, and a house needs to be built, it is best to tell the village and have an explanation.
At this time, the benefit of having a clear household registration comes. If you are a foreigner and want to use the mountain, forest, water and land resources in the village, you will not be allowed.
The village chief and the clan chief are actually relatives of uncles and grandfathers, so they did not embarrass Qin Yao, a junior. Apart from being a little surprised when he heard that Liu Laosan's family was going to build a house, he happily agreed.
Qin Yao also found that the villagers in Liujia Village were relatively united. Although the villagers hated the scourge of Liu Ji, for the sake of the same clan, once someone from outside the village came in to cause trouble for Liu Ji, everyone would still support him. field.
The first two times Lin Erbao came to the village, Liu Ji would have been beaten to death if it weren't for the villagers surrounding him.
Just because the whole clan is here, even if they are watching the excitement, Lin Erbao and others are still a little scrupulous. If someone's life is really lost, the Liu clan will not let them go.
Shengguo is a clan society under the feudal monarchy. These villages, large and small, are actually the gathering of clansmen.
Ninety percent of the people in Liujia Village have the surname Liu. Following Old Man Liu as he walked around the village, Qin Yao discovered that she was actually quite senior.
Most people call her aunt, a few call her sister-in-law, and a very few call her Liu Sanjia.
After leaving the village chief and clan chief's home, Qin Yao and Old Man Liu went to their cousin's and uncle's homes, telling them about building a house and asking them to help.
Old man Liu said that the person who comes to help will be provided with a lunch, and the other person will be given two cents a day, which is very meaningful.
Qin Yao didn't understand the situation and wondered if this was too little.
Unexpectedly, her uncle and uncle happily agreed, and tomorrow morning they would bring their tools and call on the idle laborers at home to work at her house.
For the villagers who have been struggling with food and clothing, this lunch is equivalent to saving a meal of food for the family.
At the most difficult time, this meal of food can be boiled into gruel to keep the family alive for one more day.
Qin Yao thought that Liu Ji's family was already the poorest in the village, but when she came to her uncle's house and saw the skinny women and children, she realized that this was a common situation.
Because of the lack of production tools, it is impossible to cultivate intensively, resulting in low food output. If the family size is large, it is not easy to ensure that the whole family does not starve to death, let alone eat enough.
Furthermore, the land has not always existed. It was only after the new imperial court came to power this year that the land was redivided, and the current land was created.
Old man Liu looked at Qin Yao’s clueless look and guessed that her family conditions were pretty good before, and sighed:
“This year, Your Majesty has redistributed the fields for everyone, so everyone doesn’t have to worry about not being able to survive the winter. In previous years, there would have been no food at this time.”
Qin Yao was surprised, "It's just the autumn harvest, and there's nothing to eat?"
Old man Liu had a serious expression on his face, shook his head, and continued: "The autumn harvest is followed by taxation. Li Zheng will take people to each village to collect grain tax. Grain must be handed in, and money and cloth are not allowed to be substituted. Originally, it is With only a few acres of land, the output can only be so much. If you pay one-eighth of the grain tax, how much more can you think of left?”
There’s no need to forget it, it’s already great if you can still have it left.
The two of them visited several nearby restaurants, and everyone was happy to come and help, not for the two cents, but for the lunch.
In this way, the hand is enough. Liu Laohan said that the time was not too early. Qin Yao went home to prepare.
The next morning, just after dawn, Liu Ji, who was still lying in bed having a sweet dream, suddenly heard a noise outside the house and sat up in shock from his dream!
"Da Lang! Da Lang!" Liu Ji shouted loudly outside the door, a little panicked.
Haven't there been wild animals coming down the mountain in search of food?
But he obviously thought too much. The closed door was pushed open, and Dalang walked in with a blank look on his face. He was already dressed and looked like he had gotten up early. "Dad, do you want to pee?" Dalang walked to the bed and bent down to get the urinal.
Liu Ji stared at his son speechlessly. Every day he saw him, he would ask him if he had peed. Where did he pee so much? "No!"
“What’s the noise outside? What are you doing?”
Dalang put down the chamber pot and replied: "We are going to build a house at home, and my aunt is leading people to dig stones for the foundation."
Liu Ji was a little confused, "Is our family going to build a house?"
Dalang nodded. Seeing that he didn't urinate, he was about to go out. "Dad, if you don't pee, I will leave. I have a lot of life."
After saying that, he looked at his father with an unclear look. He didn't look like he needed to lie down anymore, and he didn't know how to go to the fields to help the family with some work.
Thinking of this, Dalang ran out to find Qin Yao and said:
“Auntie, my dad seems to be getting well soon.”
Qin Yao poured a load of heavy stones on her shoulders into the open space, and someone would take the stones to fill the foundation.
She carried more stones alone than three strong men. Liu Fei, the teenager who was picking up stones by the river, couldn't keep up with her speed.
Qin Yao thought that they would have to pick it up by the river for a while, so she motioned for Dalang to follow him, walked to the water jar next to the stove and scooped out a ladle of cool well water. After finishing it in one gulp, she asked, "Are you ready?"
Dalang grunted, "He can go for a walk on his own." He saw it yesterday evening, when his stepmother was not at home, his father was rummaging through things in the house.
He guessed that he was looking for silver, but he couldn't find it.
Stepmother always tied the money bag around her waist, so it’s strange that dad can find it.
Qin Yao touched the little boy's head and said, "Okay, I understand. You should go back to the house and rest with Erlang and the others. There are so many people working here, so there is no need for you, a little kid."
Dalang hummed a little sheepishly, turned around and went into the house.
There are a lot of things at home, and there is no place to hide them. He helps to keep an eye on them so that they don’t get stolen by people.
Qin Yao watched Dalang enter the side room, opened the door of the main room and walked in.
Liu Ji had already gone back to sleep, and there was so much noise outside that it could not wake him up again.
But I don’t know why, but it’s getting colder and chillier on my back, as if I’m being stared at by a big snake spitting out snakes.
Liu Ji suddenly woke up, and when he raised his eyes, he met Qin Yao's cold eyes.
“Madam? You scared me to death!” Liu Ji patted his chest, gasped for air, and gave Qin Yao a strange look.
Qin Yao looked at his lively appearance and reached out to lift the swelling-reducing herbs on his face. The swelling had gone away, leaving only some bruises.
It seems that Dalang is right, he can go to work in the fields.
Even if you can't do heavy work, you can still do light work such as lighting a fire, cooking rice, and frying vegetables.
"stand up!"
Qin Yao lifted up the quilt on his body.
Liu Ji was shocked. Could it be that this evil woman discovered that he was extremely handsome, had a sudden sexual desire, and wanted to have fun with him?
