The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 173 Conflict (Part 2)

Old man Hu stared at his youngest son bitterly, wishing he had never been born, and he would not be willing to spend the seventeen taels of silver after he got it, so he would give it away before it was warmed up?

Old man Hu was not reconciled, he had never seen so much silver in his life, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your family's rice seeds are not worth so much even if they are made of gold."

The aunt sneered and said, "Your wine is still made from sorghum. Why is it worth seventeen taels? Isn't my rice more expensive than your sorghum?"

Hearing this, all the onlookers outside understood that after all Ma Liu was unwilling to be coerced by the Hu family for the seventeen taels of silver, and this was revenge.

People outside are happy to see it, but after Hu Man became a small flag, their life will be much more difficult.

The Hu family is not as selfless as the Mu family. I didn't think it before, but after comparing with the Hu family, I realized how beautiful the previous life was.

In the past, when Mu Shi was a small banner, when it came to doing farm work, each family in the village did it. The Mu family didn't even occupy the cattle and farm tools. One of the reasons why Shi can quickly convince the public.

But it was Hu Man, the Hu family took up a lot of the five cows. Last time they planted rice seedlings, they allocated strong labor from each household to plant rice seedlings for their family first. All of a sudden occupied five cows.

I dare not speak in front of the Hu family, but who doesn't speak ill of the Hu family behind their backs?

Even if they knew that Hu Man was innocent in the barracks, they would be scolded over and over again by the villagers. Seeing that the Mu and Hu families were facing each other again, and the Hu family was obviously going to suffer, everyone yelled at the Mu family. Cheer up.

In fact, someone whispered: "What are you afraid of? The Hu family is not the most powerful in this village, but the Mu family is suppressing it."

"That's right, it's not enough for Brother Mu to say that Hu Man is a small flag. If the Hu family and the Mu family become enmity again, maybe Brother Mu won't keep his promise, and he will kill Hu Man directly."

"If you want me to say that Brother Mu is pedantic, the Hu family was wrong in the first place, and they all bullied his daughter. Why do you keep your promise and just throw the Hu family out."

"So you can only farm the land, and Brother Mu can be a popular person in front of the little general. He has morality and bottom line, and they are all like you. After that, who will listen to Brother Mu?"

There is arguing outside, and there is also arguing inside. Hu Jinshi is the master who will add to the chaos, but the main force of the Hu family, Old Man Hu and Hu Fangshi, do not show weakness, but insist that the rice in that part of the land is not worth seventeen taels of silver. , Mrs. Hu and Mrs. Zhang helped each other from time to time, Mrs. Hu Gui straightened his neck and refused to admit his mistakes, Mrs. Ma Liu was aggressive since he was a child, and they were evenly matched against each other.

Mu Yangling frowned, Xiuhong squeezed in from the outside, and said to Mu Yangling, "Cousin, Auntie wants me to come and have a word with you."

Xiuhong yelled these words, not only Ma Liu stopped and turned her head, but the Hu family also stopped talking and looked over.

Xiuhong said loudly: "My cousin said that Uncle Hu's herding cattle and gnawing crops is against the law and obstructing Nongsang, so she asked my cousin to go directly to Zongqi. Quarrels, right and wrong, let the law decide. Uncle Hu’s mistake is not too big. Most of the time he spent a few months in prison as a coolie will make up for it. Our family will have to pay twice as much for the rice they lost in the future. It is written in the law."

Xiuhong glanced at them, then lowered her voice and said, "My cousin said that our family is not short of money, so please don't embarrass the Hu family, just follow the law."

The faces of the Hu family suddenly turned pale and white.

Immediately Ma Liu was in a hurry, she gave them a sneer look and said, "Indeed, we don't want the seventeen taels of silver, we will send it directly to the official, and let the official judge it." She said and pulled Mu Yangling He Xiuhong is leaving.

With a pale face, Hu Gui knelt under the old man Hu's feet, hugged his legs and said, "Father, I don't want to be imprisoned, and I don't want to be a coolie. Can the coolie son of the court come out alive?"

The old man Hu shook his hands, and Hu Fangshi had already stepped forward to stop Ma Liushi, crying and begging: "My good sister, please don't send me to the official, it's such a big deal, we just need to pay more money, how about that?" , how about five taels?"

Ma Liushi pushed her hand away, and said with a sneer, "Our Mu family has no shortage of money, and we keep it for you to brew."

Hu Fang gritted his teeth, knelt down in front of Ma Liu, wiped his tears and said, "Good sister, I know you hate my family for selling your wine at a high price, but that wine saved your niece and daughter-in-law anyway, even if the wine is not worth it Money, because it saves people, right?"

"That's right," Ma Liushi had already pushed Mu Yangling and Xiuhong away when she was kneeling down, and she also stepped aside. Now when she heard her question, she stood in front of her with a pale expression on her face. Qing raised her face and asked: "But what's the relationship between us? Ever since you moved here, you've been yelling at your old sister. The cows in the flag will let the stones go to your house first, and my family's A Ling will go up the mountain." Order something good, I feel sorry for your grandson who has a disheveled face, and he eats a ball of meat every day, you were sick and almost died in bed, and I brought an old hen from my niece and daughter-in-law to make up for you, you're old Sister's so affectionate, I really think you are an 'old sister', but how do you do it? My family is burning to death, so I just point to a sip of wine to cool down, you have a dark heart, You are still not reconciled to throwing out seventeen taels of silver, and forced my family, Ah Ling, to let her father give up Xiaoqi to your son. Are you guilty? Don't call me 'old sister', listen to you call these three words, I'm sick!"

Hu Fang's face was pale.

Ma Liu straightened up and spat viciously at old man Hu, and the onlookers made way for them to leave one after another, and someone couldn't help but whispered: "This is really deserved, typical ungrateful, no wonder Ma Liu is so ungrateful. Hate, I have to hate them too."

"That's right, the two families were so good in the past. The two sons of the Hu family often hang out with Brother Mu, but now they have completely turned against each other."

"That's what the Hu family asked for."

Old man Hu looked at his younger son with a livid face for a while, then turned back to the house and dug out the seventeen taels of silver from the bottom of the kang. Hurry up and send it."

You can't just watch your beloved Yao'er die. If you work as a coolie for the yamen, you will be thin and out of shape in 20 days, and you will die of exhaustion on the construction site in a month and a half.

Hu Zhangshi looked at Yinzi and gritted his teeth, and said in a low voice: "It's spring now, and there's nothing to do in the yamen. How can there be any coolies?"

Hu Gui stared at her and said: "Sister-in-law said so, let elder brother try it for me."
