The Reborn Wife is Farming - Chapter 1207: Thoughts

The little lion taught him, “If you want to compare with a smart person, how can you compare with a fool?”

“But he’s in his twenties, and I’m only ten!”

This reason is so strong that the little lion couldn’t find an excuse to refute it.

Qi Wensu also said: “Dong Wulang is indeed stupid. Even my third and fourth younger brothers know that the land price near the capital is not low, and the middle land will not be lower than eight taels of silver. This is not the kind of land that is sparsely populated in the north. Where is the land for two taels of silver per mu?”

“Stop insulting Beidi,” Xiaoan snorted with his hands behind his back, “A medium-sized land in Beidi costs four taels of silver per mu. Both sides are greedy for profit, so it’s understandable to be played around by the steward of that season, but These people are indeed pitiful, and they have indeed suffered heavy losses, and they are regarded as the sufferers.”

People around the four children looked at them in surprise. Are all the children so powerful now?

But the county magistrate in the hall obviously didn’t think so. He felt that these farm households were not the sufferers, and the innocent Mr. Zuo Xiang was involved in this matter. note.

The county magistrate could only knock on the gavel aggrievedly, and let the ones hit 50 on each side let go.

Although Dong Mao didn’t know it, he also condoned the slaves to oppress the people, so he was hit with twenty boards and fined a certain amount, thinking that he was seriously injured, and he was allowed to heal his wounds before he was sentenced to death.

On the other hand, the farmer will return the one or two taels of silver they received. The previous transaction will be voided and the land deed can be retrieved. A fine of two taels of silver.

This punishment is heavy enough, they are willing to take out the land deed for one mu and one tael of silver, which shows how much they love money.

But now they are not only required to return the silver, but also fined two taels of silver per mu. Not only did the bamboo basket fetch water in the end, but they also paid so much money. The yamen is closed, and they may get the land back without fines if they make a fuss.

But they didn’t know that this punishment was considered light. You must know that the county magistrate originally planned to confiscate the land and then impose a sentence. If Mr. Zuo Xiang didn’t say he was close, he would have let it go so lightly.

The farm households felt like they were mourning their concubines, Xiaoan and the others were not ignorant sons and daughters, they knew the importance of the land to farmers, and they felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

Seeing that Steward Ji was taken into custody and the interrogation of the case was over, the four of them squeezed out of the crowd, seeing Xiao Ting standing with their guards, the four of them froze immediately.

Mu Yangling saw that the four children were in a low mood, so he comforted them and said, “They have to blame themselves. If they can’t spend so much money, they can sell the land.”

“Didn’t mother say that the land is the lifeblood of farmers, if they sell their lifeblood, what will they live on?” The little lion looked at his mother with wide eyes.

“That’s right, so the imperial court has always wanted to restrict the trading of land, but so far there is no good way. As for these people,” Mu Yangling smiled, “Since they can come up with such a way to make money, they should not be hanged on the land. , don’t worry about them.”

In this simple age, what kind of good man can a farmer who dares to use his land to cheat money?

Even in the era when the information exploded in the previous life and the land was full of scammers, no farmer dared to take out his land to deceive people easily.

So Mu Yangling doesn’t sympathize with those people at all.

After comforting them, Mu Yangling saw that the four of them had no intention of leaving at all, so he put down his pen and asked, “Tell me, what’s the problem?”

Xiao An glanced at the younger brothers and asked, “Fourth Aunt, why did my father let Hutou beat Dong Wulang to make things worse?”

Mu Yangling asked jokingly: “Didn’t you beat Dong Mao before and make things worse?”

Xiao An blushed, and said in a low voice, “What’s the matter? We were children fighting, but it’s different when Dad intervenes.”

And he always felt that there were some tricks in the adult world that they couldn’t understand.

Mu Yangling thought for a while and said: “I don’t know why, when you go back, you can take the tiger head and the others to ask your father. Also, don’t forget the purpose of your coming out today, and you will be on leave tomorrow. , do you have a clue about your homework?”

The four children opened their mouths wide. They had such a rich day that they forgot about it.

The four children ran back as if they couldn’t wait, and at this time, Fan Zijin had just learned about the children sneaking out of the palace, so he couldn’t help grinding his teeth angrily, “When did the guards in the palace become so lax?”

Qi Haoran, who had just rushed over from the Ministry of War, heard the news and said: “According to the guards in the palace, the four children went out ostentatiously, and no one stopped them.”

Fan Zijin: “…”

Qi Haoran continued: “You didn’t put them in confinement. If they didn’t run away after washing the imperial study, is it possible that they are still waiting for you to continue to punish them? They are not stupid.”

“Yes, they are not stupid, that’s why they got into trouble!” Fan Zijin gritted his teeth.

Qi Haoran coughed lightly and said, “You can’t take it after only taking them for a day. Ah Ling and I wipe their buttocks every day.”

Fan Zijin snorted coldly: “That’s what you deserve. Aren’t you conniving at the kids for being so naughty?”

When Fan Zijin returned to the Prince’s Mansion angrily, he saw four children standing in a row asking questions, Qi Haoran said in a low voice: “They are also taught by us, do you think whose children are as smart as them?”

This time Fan Zijin just let out a cold snort and carried the four children to the small study.

The four of them stayed up late at night to do their homework. The next day Qi Qi blocked Fan Zijin with dark circles and asked him to correct it.

Fan Zijin’s absenteeism yesterday was known by all the Ministers of Civil and Military Affairs of the court, so it’s not easy to continue absenteeism today, so he took their homework and stuffed it into a pile of official documents, saying: “I’ll take it to the yamen for corrections, and I’ll give it to you when I come back at noon.”

After the morning court, Fan Zijin took out the four children’s articles for review. Adhering to the principle of prioritizing the inferior ones, Fan Zijin searched for Hutou’s articles first without even thinking about it.

Hutou gave up his previous idea, focused on yesterday’s events, and wrote down the cause and effect. He even wrote down what he told them last night that it was someone who designed to frame Rong Xuan. As Daqi’s hope for the future, Daqi’s children must not be as stupid as Dong Mao. I don’t even understand the basic common sense of land price.

Fan Zijin could see that his hands were shaking all the time, not because he was touched, but because he was angry. Why did this kid write everything up? The matter of Rong Xuan’s design was just a guess in everyone’s mind, and it was not put on the bright side. This kid is fine. He just wrote down his analysis photo and planned to post it to the newspaper. Does this mean that the situation is not chaotic enough?

Fan Zijin suppressed the anger in his heart and told himself, it doesn’t matter, this is a tiger head, so he regarded him as Qi Haoran when he was a child.

After some psychological construction, I took out Qi Wensu’s article and read it.

Fan Zijin’s pent-up anger burst into flames, and he couldn’t help but gritted his teeth and said, “These brats!”
