The Lucky Farmgirl has a Pocket Dimension

  Chapter 180 I'm worried about recruiting thieves

  180 The thief is thinking about it

  Qiao Muchen thought for a while, and nodded heavily to express that he understood.

   Seeing this, Wei Shulan and Zhao Yue hurriedly nodded to show that they also understood.

  Mr. smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand, and let them go to school to study, while he himself stood under the tree and thought for a while.

Tax collectors will secretly do tricks when collecting taxes. For example, when paying grain taxes, they will deliberately use a measuring bucket that is a circle larger than the standard measuring bucket to fill rice, or modify the rules, such as the adjustment of the tax collection age for the elderly. He has heard about such things a long time ago.

   It's just that the county magistrate knew about the tax collector's actions. Was he deceived by his subordinates, or did he instigate these actions?

   And what he just said to the children can be regarded as reminding the children that people are very complicated, so don't define whether a person is good or bad too easily.

  At this moment, the classroom has already heard the sound of children reading, especially the voices of Zhao Zhitong and Qiao Muchen.

  Meng Xuejiao couldn't help but smiled, and walked back to the classroom.

  …

  As the weather is getting colder and colder, the New Year is getting closer and closer, and the school is also on holiday, and the children are very happy.

  Because the New Year means that you can wear new clothes and eat delicious food!

  In this day and age, poor rural people can count the number of times they eat meat a year with one hand.

   During Chinese New Year, the family will be willing to spend a lot of money to buy a piece of meat and make a pot of pork and cabbage, which is a bit meaty.

   This is considered a great dish for entertaining guests in poor people's homes.

  The Chinese New Year atmosphere in the Zhao family became more and more intense as time went by. Before the holiday, Zhao Zhitong pestered Meng Xuexue and gave her a pair of couplets.

  Zhao Zhitong is very precious, and said that he wanted to paste this couplet on the door of the room where she and Zhao Ya slept.

  Zhao Dong and Sun Mei were not idle either. In addition to rushing out the family's New Year's clothes and shoes, they had already begun to prepare for the New Year's goods one after another.

  They killed the pigs at home earlier, and Sun Mei basically made all the remaining meat into bacon, and now they hung it in the yard, and took it to visit relatives to pay New Year's greetings.

  Reserved a small half and stored it in Zhao Zhitong's space, waiting to be used when making dumplings during the Chinese New Year.

Therefore, their family is not going to buy pork. Of course, chicken, duck, and fish must be prepared, especially fish. Four big fish came back.

  As for other meat, the county also sells it, such as beef.

However, because the Great Zhou Dynasty forbids the slaughter of cattle, there are very few stalls selling beef, and there are only a few occasionally, and the meat sold is expensive. Sun Mei is still worried that the meat of some sick cattle, hesitates. Next, ultimately did not want to.

   Mutton is too expensive, so after much deliberation, Sun Mei asked Zhao Dong to go to the county town to buy a piece of mutton, and cook a mutton soup in winter, which is the best way to keep out the cold.

Now that their family has an ox cart, it is much more convenient to go to the market or the county town to buy things. Basically, they just go there. Just a few days ago, Zhao Dong went to the market and bought a sack of peanuts. Woolen cloth.

  Because there are no melon seeds at this time, there is a peanut to eat during the Chinese New Year, which also adds a taste of the New Year.

  After buying the peanuts, Zhao Dong took a pot and ran to the edge of the river bed, dug a pot of sand and came back to fry the peanuts.

   It may be because their family is building a house and buying cattle recently, which shows that they are rich in the village.

   Seeing that the family that used to live was not as good as their own, but now it is better than their own, many people have pink eye disease.

   Some gossiping women started to get sour on the street. As long as Zhao Dong went out to dig in the sand, he had already heard several versions about their family getting rich.

There are more reliable ones that say that their family provided recipes for Guangjuxuan and made a lot of money, some outrageous ones say that Zhao Dong discovered some treasures outside, and some even say that their family was enlightened by immortals , just made a lot of money.

  No matter how you say it, the rumors about Zhao Dong's family's wealth have been spread, and then spread to the ears of some wicked people, and they began to think of twisted ideas.

  In every village, there are more or less a few people who are lazy and idle, commonly known as punks.

  Zhaozhai Village is naturally indispensable. Zhao Laosi at the east end of the village, and Wang Mazi in the village are the well-known gangsters in their village.

  Diding about all day long, they also like to gamble. Both of them are almost in their forties, and they haven't married yet. They spend today and don't think about tomorrow.

   It's almost the Chinese New Year, and they don't say they have any money, even the food at home, they take it to gamble.

   No, rumors that Zhao Dong's family was rich fell into the ears of the two.

   It seemed that the Chinese New Year was coming, and the two, who couldn't even afford a full meal, got together and cast their evil eyes on Zhao Dong's family.

  In the evening of that day, the weather was very good, with few stars and moon.

   A torch was lit in the brazier in the yard. Sun Mei was frying peanuts in the yard. This was already the third pot. Sun Mei planned to fry more and give some to the village head's family, the Shitou family, who often helped them.

  The iron shovel rubbed against the sand and rattled. Zhao Ya was sitting on a small wooden pier, with a bag of peanuts wrapped around her clothes, and she was eating and making a fire.

   Zhao Cheng and Zhao Dong were chopping firewood, preparing to heat up their kang so that they could sleep in a while.

  Zhao Zhitong and Zhao Yu squatted next to the peanuts that were left to cool in the yard, chirping and chatting.

  The puppy she adopted, Dabao, has grown up a lot now, much stronger than when he first came here.

  Zhao Zhitong also specially asked Sun Mei to use the old clothes that he didn't wear to make a small dress for the puppy. Right now, it is squatting obediently at Zhao Zhitong's feet, wagging its tail, so obedient.

   This puppy is very smart. Zhao Zhitong has trained it to do some simple movements a long time ago, and it learns very quickly. For this reason, Zhao Zhitong has been bragging in front of his friends for a long time.

  What do you say, she is the smartest, so the dogs she raises are also the smartest.

  Of course, if you blow too much bullshit, there will be a day when it will be broken. It was Qiao Muchen who pierced it for her, because he insisted that his lightning is smarter.

   Because of this, the two had an argument. They didn't speak for two days. The two families were still very nervous at the time. After they found out the reason, they were both speechless and didn't intend to intervene. Let them solve it by themselves.

  So, until three days later, they brought their dogs to the school and let them compete.

  Naturally, the two dogs have special skills. Zhao Zhitong's Dabao is not noisy because he has been thin since he was a child. He is very obedient, very sensitive to passwords, and can complete every movement very well.

   And Qiao Muchen's lightning, the kind that moves a little, the kind that can't stay for a moment, and has strong motor cells.

   Climbing, running, and catching small animals are very strong. They compared each other, and finally they reached an agreement that the two dogs are equally smart, and this bragging can be regarded as the end.
