Old man Liu, I happily retorted: "A while ago, our family worked day and night, and we didn't see anyone from the eldest brother's family come to help us with work! Old mother, don't call me unfilial, the villagers' eyes It is sharp, don't be too biased"
If the honest old man Liu in the past couldn't say such a thing at all, but last time he tasted the benefits of rejection, old man Liu is no longer the foolish and filial person who responds to requests.
He wants to learn from his elder brother, not a coward, but he has to learn to take care of his own little family.
The old lady was trembling with anger and pointed at old man Liu, "I raised you for nothing"
"People are doing it, and the sky is watching. Are you not guilty of saying this? You charge me one tael of silver a year, and the filial piety of a hundred catties of rice, and you say that you have raised me for nothing. Mother, if you are like this, then I will pay you one or two taels a year." The money, and the one hundred catties of rice every year, are also not given!" Old Man Liu said angrily.
He knew that the old mother could live well in the elder brother's family, and her words carried weight.
It's not because his pious older brother is filial, but because he has to honor his mother with one tael of silver and one hundred catties of rice every year.
Hearing that old man Liu was unwilling to give Xiaojing silver and rice, the old lady stomped her feet angrily.
"If you don't give me money or rice, I'll just lie in front of your house and never leave!" The old lady started cheating.
Hearing this, Old Man Liu sneered, "No matter how poor the family is, I have never lost your money or your food, so don't just keep me for nothing in the future!
The gate of my house is the main road, and there are people coming and going. If you want to lie down, you can lie down. I, as a son, can't stop you. At worst, I will lie down at the gate and roll around with you! Now that you are shameless, everyone is shameless! "
When the old lady heard this, she was frightened by Old Man Liu.
Mrs. Liu didn't want things to get too tense, so she hurried over and said, "Mother, I've been so busy with the autumn harvest that I've been in charge of the house, and I'm so tired that I really don't have the energy left to work for my elder brother! You go back first, and wait until the rice is pounded." , I¡¯ll send it to you!¡±
"Liu Chengxiang, you heartless" The old lady pointed at Old Man Liu and cursed, "I knew"
Old man Liu frowned, "If you call me heartless again, I will become heartless. I want to see what you can do to me!"
"You who are in charge of the house, please don't say a few words!" Granny Liu hurriedly stopped, not wanting to make too much noise and make others laugh.
Granny Liu stepped forward to support the old lady, but the old lady was ungrateful and shook off Granny Liu's hand.
"It's your bad intentions that instigated the relationship between me and my son. If you don't have good intentions, you will die" The old lady didn't get any favors from her son, so she took her anger out on her daughter-in-law.
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was so angry that she almost didn't come up, her body was a little trembling, she turned around and entered the room, ignoring this unreasonable old lady.
This is the living and immortal.
Anyway, the family is separated now, and all the filial piety that should be given has been given, and she doesn't want to see the old lady's face.
The old lady didn't get any benefits, so she left in disgrace.
Old man Liu entered the room, saw his wife, wiped away his tears, sighed and said, "It's been hard for you these years"
"Whether it's bitter or not, it's all for this big family anyway! You've lived in a daze for half your life, and when you're old, you've finally come to your senses, and you're not muddled! I don't say I don't honor that old lady, but we have to take care of ourselves first. We won¡¯t give them anything extra!¡± Mrs. Liu was worried that her husband¡¯s heart would soften, and she would change back in a few days.
Old man Liu nodded after hearing this, "That's natural! From the day I didn't borrow food with nothing, I figured it out! No matter how the big brother's life is going, anyway, I don't envy it, and I will do my best to let it go. Our little family is doing well!
When the family life is better, I will also send my grandson to study, and I will be a accountant and a manager in the future. I don¡¯t have to work so hard on the land, and I can guarantee the harvest in drought and flood"
When Mrs. Liu heard this, she was also very moved in her heart, "It's good, let's do well, I would rather work harder, and let my son and grandson live better"
Liu Yiyi was very happy when she lay on the edge of the window and overheard the conversation between grandpa and grandma.
If her elder brothers go to study, she can learn to read with her elder brother, and she will also be able to read by then.
? Although she can roughly understand the traditional Chinese characters used by the ancients, she can't write them. The most important thing is how can she explain to others that she can recognize characters if no one teaches them!
Therefore, she has to work hard to make the life of the family better and better, and the harvest is more and more, so that she can have more money to send to her brotherto read.
After the autumn harvest in the entire Liujia Village was over, the government issued official documents to pay taxes.
One mu of land pays one hundred catties of grain.
Such a tax is already very heavy.
The family not only has to pay food, but also pays a small tax. Although one person is ten yuan, a family of seventeen needs one hundred and seventy yuan.
The baskets that my grandfather has been weaving for a year only sell for so much money!
Land tax, small tax, and corvee.
The corvee here is to repair the river or ditches according to the regulations of the county.
It is also possible to spend one hundred cash per person, and only receive money from adult men, ranging in age from fifteen to fifty.
If you don't want to spend money, you can only let the adult men in the family do the heavy work.
This year, the family has harvested a lot of food, so the old lady Liu gritted her teeth and said: "Our family, this year is better. You only need to pay three hundred Wen!"
"This is three hundred Wen!" Old man Liu was a little reluctant and wanted to save more money.
After hearing this, Mrs. Liu shook her head again and again, "It used to be that the family had no money, so there was nothing I could do. Even if you couldn't bear it, I would let you take your three sons to labor labor! Every time you come back, you are dark and thin, and you may have to give birth to another child." An illness hurts the body!
But this year is different. Our family can collect more than a dozen eggs and duck eggs every day. We can sell 60 yuan in two days, and earn 300 yuan in a few days. Why bother to let our sons do such hard work? live? "
After listening to the old man Liu, he thought about it carefully, "Labor labor is really hard, I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, I used to envy my elder brother's family who never go to labor labor, and it's done after paying the money!
Now that our family's life is better, there is no need to suffer this kind of suffering! It's just now autumn, and I took my children to the back mountain to pick some wild fruits, or some wild chestnuts and wild walnuts.
I don't ask how much it will cost, I just ask for more snacks for the children, so that I can have more food at home during the Chinese New Year, without spending money on it. "
Granny Liu nodded, found the key, opened the wooden box, and took out 470 Wen from inside, "Hurry up and hand it over!"
Liu Zhijiang and others were very happy when they heard that they didn't need to do hard labor, and they followed their father to pay the money.
Liu Yiyi felt particularly fulfilled when she heard the conversation between her grandmother and grandfather just now. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
