The skilled widow is busy farming

Grandma hugged her grandson in distress and frowned at Xiu Niang, "It's just a horse. Is it worth spanking the child?"

"Grandma, you can't spoil him. This is a BMW foal. It is very precious and difficult to raise."

"It's okay. Brother Chun, you can take care of me alone. If not, let your brothers take care of you."

Brother Chun, the brother of the second uncle, is also very protective. He takes him with him to study and teach him when he has free time on weekdays. The brothers are also very affectionate.

Brother Chun revealed his little head from grandma's arms, "My brother promised to take care of my BMW for me."

"Can you ride a horse? Your riding skills are not good at all."

"I can learn. I don't care whether you are allowed to send it back or not. I asked for it with great difficulty. Mom, when she is raised, she can breed the mare I want."

Brother Chun put his hands together and prayed for mercy.

"If you want to stay, you can stay and take care of it yourself. Your brothers are busy. The general servants will learn from you. If you let me know that you are lazy and slippery, I will sell the horse."

Xiu Niang restrained her son with a serious look.

"understood."

"Okay, okay, my grandson is good. No matter when he is not in the top three in the assessment, you can't tighten your belt too tightly."

Grandma touched her little grandson's head and coaxed her with a loving look on her face, "You have to work hard to learn skills. You can't be lazy and clever. Learning skills and being lazy and clever is actually the stupidest behavior. You can't do this. I let you Have fun but don’t take away from your studies.”

"I promise I won't pull it off."

Brother Chun nodded immediately.

"I'll forgive you once, but I won't do it next time."

"Oh."

Only after warning Brother Chun repeatedly did Xiu Niang let her son go.

Because what happened last time made Xiuniang alert, after studying for a few days, she established new punishment rules with the clan elders.

There are still some restrictions in the village. The poor and the rich cannot afford this wealth, so they must be restrained by strict clan rules.

Among them, it is not allowed to make any promises on behalf of the clan without consultation, including the engagement of your son or daughter. It is not allowed.

Your own child doesn't matter even if you say it, whoever allows you to sell the child for a little profit.

And if you make a mistake, you will be punished. Not only will you have to spit out the money, but you will also be hit with a blackboard and fined money.

The three men not only vomited out this year's dividends, but also fined them 50 taels, and even vomited out last year's money.

The daughter-in-law and her mother-in-law were crying secretly behind each other's back. They both worked in the weaving workshop. They worked hard day and night, and they only made this little money in a year. In the end, they were punished for all the two years of hard work, and the child had to get engaged. The bride price is gone.

The mother-in-law grabbed her son and beat him, and the daughter-in-law even shed tears of grievance.

Not only was he beaten in the clan, but the old man beat him again when he got home.

Now the villagers have woken up, have regained their senses, and have a sense of control in their mouths. They don't dare to talk about anything, and they don't dare to accept invitations to drink. Especially when drinking with relatives and outsiders, they don't dare to get drunk. , this punishment is too harsh.

Not every family can earn 50 taels a year. It’s easy to hope that this little money will allow their children to get married and build a house, but in the end, it’s all gone after a big drink. This is such a loss.

"Grandpa, from now on we must teach the villagers about the law regularly. We can't just teach it to the children, the elders must also learn it, otherwise we will get into trouble without restraint when we go out." "You are right, but the restraint is still not strict enough. , The past two years have gone too fast. From next year, we won’t be able to divide the money. Please think about what we can do in exchange for not dividing the money so that the villagers won’t make trouble."

Everyone is staring at this dividend, hoping that it will be easy to live a good life.

I'm sure I won't be happy if I taste the sweetness but don't get any points.

"Grandpa, I feel like we did something wrong."

"I also don't think the money should be split."

Grandpa also nodded and admitted that they had done something wrong.

It was originally well-intentioned, but the villagers were suffering too much. For the future and education of their children and grandchildren, they really had the money and strength to contribute, and every household contributed money and food to the family banquet.

Now that life is getting better, the clan elders are also thinking about the villagers and hope that every household can live a good life. Money is not a problem.

"Grandpa, let's think of other ways. We won't divide the money in the future. How about we change the land and divide the opportunities to work and make money. Only when you earn money can you understand the difficulty and difficulty, and then you can cherish it."

"You're right, it's not impossible to divide the land, but the number of men in each household is different. Some widows and children can't contribute much, so they get less. It's not fair."

"Then we will give special treatment, make a note of it, and write down the merits. The widow and the child are easy to talk about. It is just for the future of the children and grandchildren. Needless to say, the son. As long as he is willing to learn and has no future, the village will give a dowry to the girl. You don’t have to worry about the widow to get married properly. We provide for the widow and the elderly in our village. Every year we give out more grain and meat than others. If she can’t use up, she can sell what she has in hand to make money.”

"this is okay."

"For example, if the widows and old people go to raise chickens and pigs, they are not tired, and they can worry about it. If they raise enough chickens, they can just share a few chickens. If they are short of money to buy salt and sugar, they can sell what they have in hand to get money. This can be regarded as taking care of the orphans, widows, the elderly and the weak. If you distribute it to yourself and then sell it, you don't have to worry about it."

"good idea."

"As for other people, the old rules are still the same. Pay according to work, and work for the clan also needs to be paid. Working for others is an opportunity, and it depends on whether the individual does well. In this way, the remaining money is not divided among the villagers. , we use it to buy land, and whoever needs it can buy it back."

"What if you don't have much money?"

"You can share it with the clan if you do a good job. If it lasts for more than ten years, you can pay less and sell it to you at a cheaper price. At this time, the land is also good land and it has been cultivated. It will not be a loss to your own people."

"It's a good idea."

Other clan elders also nodded.

"Others can learn crafts and do common work. If they can't do it, they can also plant ancestral fields, raise horses, etc. for the clan. I thought about it before. I thought that after the villagers have suffered all these years, they should allocate some money to their children and grandchildren to marry and have children. , but it’s only been a few years, and it hasn’t turned around. There are problems and troubles, and more and more people are coming to fight against the autumn wind, which is not a good sign.”

"This matter will be resolved this year, but what about building a house?"

"Building a house requires money. We invite family members to work with the sons and daughters according to their merits. We build houses according to the requirements of each family, so that the children have more opportunities to practice. We can also join together to buy land from several families, such as my father-in-law. My second uncle, who is a close brother, doesn’t have money to share, so the brothers join together to buy land and build a house. It can be cheaper to hire people from our village to do it, and it will be calculated according to the merit, and it can be credited, and it can’t exceed 20 taels. Only for buying land and building houses.”

"Okay, let me think about it some more."

"As for marrying wives and daughters, the clan can contribute a share of the money. According to the performance of the children in clan studies and the merits of the parents, in a word, everyone should have work and something to do. We can't give the money away in vain. By concentrating together to buy property, we can get more opportunities for Erlang, and they will not be disappointed."

"I think it's okay, you guys take a look."

"I also feel that we can no longer divide the money. If we don't divide the money, our clan can continue to buy properties if we have more money. In this way, if we don't have enough manpower, we won't be afraid that there will be no work and no money. It is really wrong to just lie down and divide the money."

Other clan elders also nodded in agreement that they would not pay any money.
