The Reborn Lady is Farming

Chapter 173: conflict (middle)

  The old man Hu stared at his younger son angrily, wishing he had never given birth to him. After the seventeen taels of silver were in his hands, he would not be willing to spend it, and would he want to give it away before it was warmed up?

   Old man Hu was unwilling. He had never seen so much silver in his life. He gritted his teeth and said, "The rice seeds in your family are not worth so much even if they are made of gold."

Aunt    sneered: "Your wine is still made from sorghum, why is it worth seventeen taels? Isn't my rice more expensive than your sorghum?"

   Hearing this, all the onlookers outside understood. After all, Ma Liu was not willing to be coerced by the Hu family for the seventeen taels of silver. This is revenge.

  The people outside were happy to see it. After Hu Man became a small flag, their life would be much more difficult.

  The Hu family is not as generous and selfless as the Mu family. I didn't think that before, only after comparing with the Hu family did I realize how beautiful the previous days were.

In the past, when Mu Shi was a small banner, when he encountered farm work, each family worked in the village, and the Mu family did not even occupy the cattle and farm implements. This has always been an important reason why they are grateful to the Mu family. One of the reasons why Shi was able to quickly convince the public.

But Hu Man was replaced, and the Hu family occupied a lot of five cows. When they planted rice last time, they dispatched the strong labor from each family to plant rice for their family. It took up five cows at once.

   I dare not speak in front of the Hu family, but who doesn't speak ill of the Hu family behind their backs?

Even if he knew that Hu Man was innocent in the barracks, he was brought up and scolded again and again by the villagers. At this time, the Mu Hu family were facing each other again, and the Hu family was obviously going to suffer. Cheer up.

   In fact, someone whispered below: "What are you afraid of? The most powerful people in this village are not the Hu family, but the Mu family is pressing them."

   "That's right, it's not the work of Big Brother Mu that Hu Man is a small flag. If the Hu family and the Mu family get enmity again, maybe Big Brother Mu will not keep that promise, and will directly slap Hu Man."

   "If I want to say that Brother Mu is pedantic, the Hu family was wrong at first, and they bullied his daughter. What's the promise? He just threw the Hu family Shiba Shiba out."

   "So you can only farm the land, and Big Brother Mu can be a popular man in front of the little general. People are moral and have a bottom line, just like you. After that, who will listen to Big Brother Mu's words?"

The outside is noisy, and the inside is also noisy. Hu Jinshi is the master who will cause trouble, but Hu Laohan and Hu Fangshi, the main force of the Hu family, are not showing weakness, they just insist that the rice in that part of the land is not worth 17 taels of silver. , Hu Zhang's help from time to time, Hu Gui is even more upright and does not admit his mistakes, Ma Liu has been savage since he was a child, and they are still evenly matched against each other.

   Mu Yangling frowned, Xiuhong squeezed in from outside, and said to Mu Yangling, "Cousin, my aunt wants me to come over and have a word with you."

   Xiuhong was shouted, not only Ma Liu stopped and turned his head, but the Hu family also stopped and looked over.

Xiuhong said loudly, "My aunt said that it is illegal for Uncle Hu to let his cows gnaw on the crops, and it is a hindrance to the agriculture. She asked her cousin to go directly to Zongqi. If Zongqi is not available, she can go to the yamen. Quarrel, right or wrong, let the law decide. Uncle Hu did not make a big mistake. Most of the time he spent a few months in prison and worked as a coolie would be offset. The rice lost by our family will be doubled by their family in the future. It's written in the law."

   Xiuhong glanced at them and said in a low voice, "Aunt Biao said that our family is not short of money, so please don't embarrass the Hu family, just follow the law."

  The faces of the Hu family members suddenly turned blue and white.

Ma Liushi was in no hurry. She glanced at them with a sneer and said, "Indeed, we don't want these seventeen taels of silver. We will send it directly to the official and let the official judge." Then she pulled Mu Yangling. He Xiuhong is leaving.

  Hu Gui knelt at the feet of the old man with a pale face, hugged his legs and said, "Father, I don't want to be imprisoned, I don't want to be a coolie, can a coolie son of the court come out alive?"

The old man Hu's hands were shaking, and Mrs. Hu Fang had already stepped forward to stop Mrs. Ma Liu, crying and begging: "Good sister, you must not be sent to the official, this is such a big deal, we just need to pay more money, that's all. , how about five taels?"

  Ma Liu pushed her hand away and sneered: "Our Mu family has no shortage of money, so let's keep it for you to make wine."

Mrs Hu Fang gritted her teeth, knelt down in front of Mrs Ma Liu, wiped her tears and said, "Good sister, I know that you hate my family's boss for selling your wine at a high price, but that wine saved your nephew and daughter-in-law, even if the wine is not worth it. Money, because it saves people, right?"

"That's right," Ma Liushi pushed Mu Yangling and Xiuhong away when she was kneeling down, and she also moved away. At this time, listening to her question, she stood in front of her, but her face became pale. Qing Di raised her face and asked, "But what's the relationship between the two of us? Since you moved here, your old sister has been yelling every now and then. The cow in the flag, I will let the stone turn to your house first, and my family's Arling can go up the mountain. Order something good, I pity your grandson's sullen face. Every day I make a ball of meat for him to eat. You were sick and almost died in bed. It was I who brought my nephew and daughter-in-law an old hen over to repair your body. Sister's call is affectionate, I really take you as an 'old sister', but how did you do it? My family was burning to death, so I pointed to a sip of wine to cool down, you have such a dark heart, You are still unwilling to throw out seventeen taels of silver. You forced my family's A Ling to ask her father to hand over the small flag to your son. Do you feel guilty? Don't call me 'old sister', listen to you call these three words, I'm sick!"

  Hu Fangshi's face was pale.

Mrs. Ma Liu straightened up and spat fiercely at the old man Hu, and the onlookers outside gave them way and let them leave, and some people could not help but whisper: "This is really right, typical ungrateful, no wonder Mr. Ma Liu is so Hate, I have to hate them to death."

   "That's right, how good the previous two families were. The two sons of the Hu family often hang out with Big Brother Mu, and now they are completely hostile."

   "That was also brought by the Hu family."

Old Man Hu stared at his younger son for a while, turned back to the house and dug out the seventeen taels of silver from under the kang. Send it right away."

   I can’t just watch my dearest youngest die, work as a coolie for the yamen, lose weight in 20 days, and die of exhaustion on the construction site in a month and a half.

  Hu Zhangshi watched Yinzi grit his teeth and said in a low voice, "Now that spring is coming, the yamen has nothing to do, so how can there be any coolies?"

  Hu Gui glared at her and said, "Sister-in-law said so, then let eldest brother try it for me."
