"The man who beat us just yesterday has directly increased the tax on Chuang Tzu today. Can't he help it?"
There was no one around except these stewards, so Ji Changye didn't stop her. Those stewards only worked in Chuang Tzu all the year round. They were a little confused when they knew what was going on in the imperial court. Standing in the same place, they only wanted to pay taxes.
At the moment, ye Sang was more and more angry. He was already aiming at it so obviously. Why didn't he send someone to encircle the general's house to copy his house directly? That's what he thought.
Thinking about this, ye sang looked up and saw several stewards standing in front of the hall. The tax should not have been borne by the tenants of Chuang Tzu. "It's increased, and there's no way for the emperor to take it back. Just be relieved. The extra money comes from the general's house."
Anger comes from anger. This is Chuang Tzu in the general's mansion. Naturally, the burden that should be shouldered should be shouldered by them. "It's not easy for the farmers, and it doesn't involve them, so that we can have a good new year in peace."
Ye sang deliberately put his tone milder. In retrospect, he was too anxious to let several managers worry, so he tried to maintain a calm attitude on the surface.
As soon as she said this, there was a way to solve the problem. The money also came from the general's house. All the managers looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with relief.
There was only one person in charge of Lin, who was still worried, "this..."
"Well, that's settled."
Seeing that he was worried, ye sang took the lead in interrupting him, forcing Lin Guanshi to swallow what he said, and then continued to be relieved for several people, "it was not a big deal. No matter what, you can't make the villagers feel sad. If you have nothing else to do, go back first."
After that, ye Sangyu's eyelashes dropped slightly, and she didn't look up at them any more. After hearing that a few people left together, she waited for people to come out of the middle hall. She just carried the tea cup on the table.
See a few steward left, Ji long night this just see to leaf mulberry, "mulberry son."
"Well?" Ye sangben is still immersed in thinking, this meeting son suddenly heard Ji Changye call her, micro opened eyes to look at him, in the eyes a little confused, "what's the matter?"
Ji Changye shakes her head and opens her mouth. As soon as she wants to say something, the corner of her eye catches a glimpse of a beautiful shadow outside. She comes in and looks at it carefully. It's not others, it's he Qing.
"Hello, young master and young lady."
He Qing has been waiting outside all the time. Now she comes in only when a few stewards come out of the house. She goes forward to be polite and doesn't say anything else. She opens the door to the mountain and says, "it's said that the stewards of Chuang Tzu have been waiting in the house early in the morning. My wife asked me to ask what's the matter."
When asked, ye Sang was stunned. They didn't know it until now. Leng Ruolan had known for a long time. How early and how late did these managers come
After a moment's stupefaction, ye sang regained his mind and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat. He just opened his mouth and told her all the things that manager Lin had said.
After listening to these, he Qing's mood is also ups and downs. She follows lengruolan all the year round. She also knows a lot about the general's family. Not long ago, she went to the accounting room and the warehouse with her wife.
At present, there is not much money left in the accounts of the general's office, which is not as abundant as before.
Thinking of these, he Qing slightly pursed her lips, but she also understood that all these things were clear to her servants, and Ji Changye and ye sang didn't need to say any more.
Knowing that they are under a lot of pressure at the moment, they don't hang around in front of them. After a few words, they go out in the middle hall and go back to the yard to talk about it with lengruolan.
It wasn't long before ye sang finished drinking the tea in his cup and was ready to go back to Huainan hospital with Ji Changye. He Qing came back again.
Seeing people coming back, ye Sang was puzzled. He Qing said slowly, "madam, please come with me and say that I have something to give you."
After saying this, and without waiting for the two to respond, he Qing turned around and walked out, as if not allowing them to refuse at all.
Looking at He Qing going out, ye sang and Ji Changye look at each other. At the same time, they put down the tea cup in their hands, help the table and follow up.
All the way to the lengruolan courtyard, as soon as they entered, they saw several big boxes piled on the ground. They were stunned, "mother
"He Qing has already told me about what happened just now."
Leng Ruolan, holding a small heater in her arms, naturally sits on the top seat, leaning back a little and caressing the side wall of the heater with one hand, "we don't have much money left in our family. It's going to be new year's day, and it's not easy to get the account back at this time."
With these words, Leng Ruolan raised her eyes and looked at Ji Changye and ye sang casually, pointing to the big boxes in front of her, "these are the dowries I brought when I married your father, and the savings I have accumulated in the general's house for so many years..."
Dun dun, lengruolan eyes in a few points can not say clearly, the way is not clear expression, seems to be feeling general, long Shu a airway: "all here."After these words, several people at the scene understood Leng Ruolan's meaning, but ye sang hesitated, "no matter what, these are your dowries, no matter..."
"You have to take it." Before she finished, she was interrupted by Leng Ruolan in a loud voice, and then the tone of her words was a little lighter, "what dowry is not dowry, since I came to Ji's home, I was a member of Ji's family. Since then, we are all one family. We don't talk at home, we talk about other things to do."
Without waiting for ye sang to say anything, lengruolan put down the small stove and raised her hand to caress her temples. She didn't know who she was talking to, but sighed: "now Ji's family is no longer what they used to be. I don't know much about the things in the imperial court, but we can't wait to die because the present things have come to us."
Listening carefully to lengruolan's words, ye Sang was very moved. Over the years, from the tit for tat at the beginning, to the love and care now.
Leng Ruolan really takes herself as a member of Ji's family, and she doesn't know when to accept herself.
Memories of the past poured into the brain, ye sang could not help but wet his eyes, eyes moved down, looking at a few boxes in front of him, is full of emotion.
Ji Changye stands beside her, looking at this picture, she can't say anything. Her mood is very complex. She is worried about the current situation and her family.
The court Hall of Hao kingdom is afraid that the sky will change soon.
At this time, lengruolan suddenly retired in addition to He Qing's girls.
After everyone left and took the door with her, she looked at Ye sang and said, "when you meet Changye tomorrow, you know more about the affairs in the imperial court. Naturally, you know that our general's house is in a bad situation."
Ye sang raised her eyes to her eyes, and was infected by the sincerity in her eyes. It was just as cold as LAN. The next words made her feel at a loss for a moment.
"Although I'm a woman, I know that Hao's country is calm on the surface, but in fact, there is an undercurrent. I don't know when war will start. We, Ji's family, have to stay behind. "
At the end of the sentence, lengruolan said it almost word by word. Her face was very serious, and her eyes were in a trance. Of course, she was afraid of being rejected.
Since ye sang and Ji Changye got married, they haven't planned to have children for a long time, and she hasn't been involved. But now the situation is forcing her to consider Ji's Centennial foundation.
As soon as this words came out, ye sang didn't have any obvious reaction. Ji Changye on one side had already stepped forward slightly, and his eyes were staring at his wife, for fear that her mother's words would make her have something in her heart.
He has always been worried about her, the child's things, originally thought at the beginning is with Ye Sang's will, he will not force.
Ye sang stood there, his mind echoed the words of lengruolan, and he couldn't come to a conclusion when he thought about it seriously.
After a long time, ye Sang was pulled back to reality by the voice of lengruolan's questioning. He blinked and was at a loss. "It's not a small matter, mother, i..."
Just opened a mouth, leaf mulberry don't know how to say go on, to Ji long night cast a look for help, his heart is a little difficult, don't know how to face.
Seeing this, Ji Changye took a breath, looked at Ye sang and lengruolan, and said almost without hesitation, "what mother said, we will consider, but these things, in the end, we still need to let nature take its course."
He said so, the action on lengruolan's hand suddenly, slightly bowed his head, and the look on his face was not real.
After pondering for a long time, he finally sighed. He didn't say anything more. He just put the tea cup on the table again. "No matter what, you just have the bottom in your heart."
With that, she didn't go to see them either. She just stood up, raised her feet and went to the inner room. As she walked, she said to several people behind her: "I'm a little tired. You go back first."
A moment later, ye sang and Ji Changye looked at each other, pursed their lips and walked out of the room.
When they went back to Huainan hospital, their psychology was extremely delicate, neither good nor bad.
As new year's Eve approaches, the atmosphere of Spring Festival in central Beijing is getting more and more intense. However, no matter how you decorate it, it lacks some flavor of new year.
A few days passed. On New Year's Eve, the whole haoguo was covered with snow, which was not consistent with the beautiful scenery at the beginning of the new year.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier. By the end of the night, the snow on the ground is almost over the ankles.
All the families are decorated with red silk and red ribbon. The whole family is reunited. Under the laughter of the common people's families, the atmosphere in the imperial city is not happy. So is the high family.
