Chapter 175 176 House Destruction, Tian Zhan

Li Yu looked at Qingshui Town, which had been ruined a lot, and said to Zhou Jia: "I don't know how many people there are in the village. Are the people left behind?"

Zhou Jia led Li Yu into the car, "Let's go! You'll know when you go back and have a look, alas! You have to find time to dispose of the property and land here."

When we arrived at Xishan Village, everyone saw that the rice in the rice fields along the way had already heading, and Ruyi pointed to the fields of the Zhou family and shouted: "Master, our fields are also planted with millet, I don't know who planted them."

Zhou Jia nodded, "Maybe it's a tenant who fled back to the village, we'll find out when we go back to the village and ask."

Walking to the entrance of the village, a few people saw the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village, which restored its former lush and leafy appearance, and there were no old people sitting under the banyan tree enjoying the coolness and chatting.

Xiaoyu looked at the big banyan tree sadly, "Ruyi, look, it can withstand natural disasters and has grown new branches."

Ruyi patted Xiaoyu comfortably and said, "Aren't we all alright!"

Everyone entered the village and found that the village was deserted and deserted, and some people's houses collapsed. When the group arrived at the door of Zhou's house in Dongshan Village, they were stunned when they looked at the house that was destroyed by fire.

"What **** damn, so abominable," Ruyi clenched her fists with red eyes, thinking of the things in the cellar, "Master, I'm afraid the things in the cellar can't be used anymore, I'll go down and have a look."

Li Yu took Zhou Jia's hand and comforted him silently. Zhou Jia nodded with red eyes and watched Ruyi and Tie Zhu walk towards the ruins. Mr. Qian comforted Zhou Jia and said, "Sir, these are all things outside the body, as long as People do well."

Zhou Jia said sadly, "My grandfather left this house to me."

"Ah! Is this Mr. Zhou and the girl from the Li family?" Li Yu turned his head and saw that it was Shopkeeper Liu trotting over from the side road next to him. Li Yu and Zhou Jia greeted him and saluted, "Exactly, Shopkeeper Liu, you OK?"

Shopkeeper Liu happily cupped his hands and smiled: "Okay, I didn't expect everyone to see each other again. Where did you and the Chen family escape to? Are they okay? Look, Mr. Zhou, your family was also attacked by those bandits. When the fire burns, go to my house and sit down."

Zhou Jia grabbed Shopkeeper Liu and said, "Manager Liu, Village Chief Chen, they are all very good. Now they have settled down in Fengming Town, Tongzhou, and we have to rush to Qingchuan. We will stop by when we pass Qingshui Town. I want to tell you. Ask me, who is cultivating the fields of my family in the village?"

"Isn't your land for sale? The rice in the fields is grown by the long-term workers hired by that family," Manager Liu looked at Li Yu, "and Miss Li, please tell your uncle, her mother and The third brother was killed by the bandits, and the two children don’t know where they are, the second child of his family has a lame leg, and he brought his wife and daughter back to the village a few years ago, and they live in the old house!”

Zhou Jia angrily said: "My family's fields are sold? Why don't I know, the land deeds are still in my hands, how did they sell them?"

"Let's just say it! You and Miss Li are both capable people, how could you sell the land to escape the famine, but that person holds the land deeds for these lands, and he doesn't want to give the land to the few tenants who came back. People planted the land of Miss Li's aunt's house and the land of Miss Li's house, and there was no harvest last year, and it seems that this year should be able to make ends meet."

Zhou Jia looked at Shopkeeper Liu and said, "Then do you know where that person came from?"

Shopkeeper Liu recalled: "It was said to be a family surnamed Hu in Qingshan County. In the spring of last year, a vicious steward brought people here. We don't know what happened."

"You are so daring and dare to forcibly seize property, Mr. Liu, do you know where the manager of his family lives?"

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head, "Probably live in Qingshan County! They come to see every once in a while. Last year, they brought people to harvest the millet."

Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia and said with a smile: "Don't be angry, it's not a good thing for someone to help you work for nothing! Besides, there are still a few days left to harvest the millet. Isn't it enough when we come to harvest the millet?"

Mr. Qian nodded and smiled: "Sir, Madam is right. After you take office, it is just right to send someone back to harvest."

Shopkeeper Liu heard Mr. Qian address Mr. Zhou Jia, and looked at Mr. Qian with joy, "Master, is Mr. Zhou an official?"

Mr. Qian cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Yes! My family is a Jinshi Jinshi and is going to take office in Qingchuan County."

Shopkeeper Liu was overjoyed after hearing this, Mr. Zhou left Dongshan Village anyway, and now it is the Master Jinshi who has also appointed an official position. Now those bullies dare to come to the village to run amok, everyone has their backs.

"Mr. Zhou's surname is just a bully. You are now an official of the imperial court, do you still need to be afraid of him? You go to office first, and then you can come back and collect the millet. You can rest assured, even if you and Li If the girl can't come back in time, I will help him find out the address of his house."

Zhou Jia bowed his hands and thanked: "If we have something to delay, I will trouble the shopkeeper Liu."

During the conversation, the two tenants who planted the wasteland of Li Mei's family and the two tenants who planted the fields of Li Yu's family also came over after hearing the news, and when they saw Li Yu, they bowed and apologized: "Miss Li, without your permission. After planting your fields, we will supply you with the rent."

Although Li Yu was a little angry, these people moved into their own homes without their permission and cultivated the fields. Then, they thought that the house would be desolate if no one lived there for a long time, and the fields would be desolate if no one was cultivated.

Seeing that Li Yu was silent, those families begged: "Miss Li, don't worry, when you returned to the village last spring, only to find out that the fields of Mr. Zhou's family had been sold, and there was no way to survive, so they shamelessly planted your family. And your aunt's land, we will supply you with all the rented children."

Li Yu sighed and said: "Your actions are indeed inappropriate, but thinking that everyone has escaped, I will not hold you accountable. You can still plant the fields! You can also live in the house. This year's farm rent It will be exempted, and it will be opened according to four or six next year, you six, I four, come to collect the rent, I will pay the tax, and you go and write a contract with Mr. Qian.”

The four families were overjoyed after hearing this, and kept bowing, "Thank you Miss Li for your kindness, you gave us a way to live!"

Mr. Qian took the Daxi people to the car to write the contract, Ruyi and Tie Zhu walked out of the ruins and said to Zhou Jia: "Master, the things in the cellar have been emptied, I don't know if it was a bandit. or disaster victims.”

Zhou Jia waved his hand, "Forget it, it's all outside the body, if it's gone, it's gone!"

Li Yu rented the fields to those two families, and they also lived in the house, so he didn't want to go back and have a look, so he said to Zhou Jia, "Let's rush to Qingchuan to take office first, and we just came back to collect millet after going back and forth."

Everyone put on the car, said goodbye to the villagers who came, and then hurried to Qingchuan County.
