Dressed as a farmer's little blessing, the road to escape the deserted

But there was almost no place to stop on the road blocked by the chariots, horses and people in front.

Everyone heard half of it, and they only said that there was a quarrel ahead when they asked the people around them.

But when asked why they were arguing, no one told the whole story.

A few people could only bite the bullet and squeeze forward, the distance was less than ten feet, and they walked for two quarters of an hour.

Jiaren and Jiayi followed behind the fourth uncle, vaguely protecting his sister.

Seeing the younger sister looking around with great interest, both of them were amused.

This little girl is really brave.

When everyone finally approached the gate of the city, they heard someone shouting loudly.

"Why don't you let us pass? They are all Tianwu people, and they have to pay money whenever they walk!"

Hundreds of soldiers followed a tall general and blocked the gate of the city.

In front of the wide door opening, there is a half-person-high wooden shelf, leaving only a path for one person to pass through.

At this moment, Xu was impatient to listen to the noise, but the general snorted coldly and cursed.

"Why? Just rely on the knife in my hand? When is the time, and you can't bear the money if you run for your life? Then why don't you just stay at home and save money when you die!"

These words were really ugly, and the people around were so angry that they started shouting one after another.

"We are the people of Tianwu, we pay food tax every year, and we support you people just to stop us from trying to survive?"

"That's right, you guys are too domineering, you actually bought Lu Yinzi, we want to sue you!"

That general has nothing to worry about, and the smile is even more arrogant.

"The imperial court is about to move to the south, who has the time to care about you untouchables!"

Li Laosi and the others frowned tightly, feeling that they had a bad premonition.

Li Lao Si pulled an old man who was wiping tears, and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter, you need to collect money when you enter the city?"

"Yeah, five taels per person, it's going to kill everyone. Who has so much money! If you don't give the money, you won't let them go. How can you escape if you can't get through?"

In the old man's burden, there was his grandson on one side and luggage on the other, crying with despair on his face.

Li Laosi and the others gasped in shock, and charged five taels per person. There are thousands of people at the gate of the city, and one toll can charge 3 to [-] taels.

These people are crazy about money!

He still wanted to ask a few more questions, but there were two carriages at the gate of the city that had paid the silver and were about to pass.

Some people want to fish in troubled waters, so they rush in.

But the long knives in the hands of those soldiers were not for display, and the man was hacked to death almost instantly.

Blood and flesh splattered, and everyone around was affected.

Some people screamed, some passed out, some cried loudly, and the gate of the city immediately became chaotic.

Li Laosi protected everyone and quickly retreated.

Jiayin didn't expect such bloodshed, she shrank her neck in fright, and hid behind her father obediently.

Jiaren was afraid that his sister would be frightened, so he quickly took off his outer shirt and put it on his sister's head.

Jiayi never left his uncle and sister.

It is difficult for a few people to squeeze in, but it is extremely easy to exit with everyone.

Just halfway back, the village head brought people to meet him.

They were in the camp, and they could only see the riot at the gate of the city, but they didn't know what happened.

After finally going back and settling down, the old and the young asked about it, and heard that it took five taels of silver to pass through the city. Everyone was surprised, and then cursed in anger.

"These things that kill thousands of dollars, the old lady at home is sick and waiting for money to buy medicine? It's really wicked. Isn't this stuck in everyone's neck asking for money?"

"This is the bandit who robbed the way, what are the officers and soldiers!"

"Why is no one in charge, we ordinary people are not allowed to live!"

Everyone scolded them fiercely, but it was useless.

Thinking about the hundreds of Wen savings in my family, I don't even want to go to the city alone!

No one would be reconciled to being stopped here after exhausting themselves.

A woman raised her child and cried, "What should I do? Are you waiting to die here?"

"Mom, I don't want to die, I want to eat chicken!" The child answered casually without being sensible.

The woman was angry and distressed, so she raised her hand and hit her!

"If you eat any chicken, you will die!"

The child didn't understand what was going on, so he grinned and began to cry. Everyone was at a loss for a while.

Li Laoer sighed, "97 people, five taels per person, which is nearly 500 taels, we can't afford it at all, so let's find another way."

The rest of the people also nodded. To be honest, even if you have money, you can't just hand it over just to pass through the city gate.

If you don’t eat in the future, you won’t survive?

Wherever you settle down, you have to re-establish your family property!

"Should we wait, maybe there are too many people at the gate of the city, and the gate of the city is really broken?" Someone suggested, but after he finished speaking, he himself smiled wryly.

There are so many soldiers, they are not made of grass, who dares to risk their lives?

Everyone was silent and worried, and suddenly a little daughter-in-law said softly, "We don't have money, do we?"

Everyone was puzzled and looked over together.

They are all poor people, five taels of silver is okay, but 500 taels is simply impossible.

The little daughter-in-law hesitated, and quietly glanced at the good news in Mrs. Li's arms.

"Fu Niu from Aunt Li's family was one year old, didn't she collect a lot of gold jewelry? I heard that it weighs dozens of taels! If you change the silver, everyone can get together, it should be enough."

The faces of the Li family all changed, they were all as cold as ice.

What they didn't know was that there were still people who cared about the Li family's wealth.

Jiayi was in a hurry and was the first to shout, "That's my sister's dowry, no one can touch it!"

Jiaren and the others also said, "That's right, it belongs to my sister."

The little daughter-in-law pursed her lips and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"When is the time, I'm counting on this money to save my life. The little girl is only one year old, what do you know about dowry and not dowry? Besides, there are still more than ten years before the little girl gets married. First, take it out as an emergency. After everyone earns money, It will be fine to arrange it again.”

What she said was so righteous, for a while, Jiayin was dumbfounded, and even suspected that she was possessed by Wu Cuihua.

The faces of the Li family members were also pale, and Mrs. Li started scolding at that time.

"Put your mother's stinky fart! What kind of onion are you, dare to calculate my granddaughter's dowry? Is your surname Li, our old Li family deserves you? Why do we have to listen to you every time you talk up and down? Yes! With the face of a donkey, I really think I am a beast!"

The old lady is usually very sensible, but don't involve her granddaughter, otherwise she will transform immediately.

The little daughter-in-law's face turned red from being scolded, and she wanted to talk, and Tao Hongying also spoke.

"Shut up that dog mouth of yours! You are really the only smart person in the world. Then I want to say, strip you naked and throw you at the gate of the city, the general who guards the city will be happy, accept it If you become a concubine, then you will be able to happily let us pass by! Why don't you hurry up and dedicate yourself!"

The little daughter-in-law burst into tears, holding herself tightly with both hands.

"Your Li family is too bullying! Didn't you just ask you to lend money to everyone to pass through the city gate? If you don't agree, let it be, why are you still swearing? If my family has money, I will definitely take it out. I will definitely not be as stingy as your family! "

"Hmph, you've already planned to come to our door, so we are not allowed to curse a few words. God is your own father, and everyone has to pamper you." Zhao Yuru is also rare to be obedient.

"You say you are not stingy, but these days the children have no millet to eat, and you still have it in your burden, why don't you take it out? Our family took millet, and you let the children eat hard? Don't care about you, really When we are all fools!"

The Li family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were all on fire, and the young daughter-in-law who scolded her couldn't stand it. ?
