Farming in the Mountains: Max Level Jiaojiao Is Three Years Old

"You're here." Shi Yuan stood up straight and smiled.

"Uncle! Uncle!" The eldest prince, the second prince, and the little princess immediately ran over to hang on the uncle Shi Che.

Shi Che bent down and hugged them, teasing them again.

Empress Tuoba smiled softly: "Your brother was still talking about you just now, saying whether you should be invited to the palace to have a meal together, but you are afraid that this is a rare time to rest and you want to relax by yourself."

Shi Che picked up the little princess, let the little princess sit on his arm, and smiled: "Brother Huang, everything is fine, but he cares too much about the feelings of our relatives."

"Yes." Queen Tuoba rarely agreed.

Shi Yuan smiled and said: "I know, I will ignore you in the future."

Shi Che smiled and said: "Brother Huang, you always say this, but when did you do it? Brother Huang, you are the emperor of Dachen. I think you'd better put yourself first. How can there be an emperor? Never put ourselves first, but our loved ones first."

Shi Yuan just laughed and didn't say anything.

After talking in front of the bedroom again, he entered the bedroom.

Queen Tuoba took the children to play in the dormitory, while brothers Shi Yuan and Shi Che played games on the kang under the window.

Shi Yuan holds Bai Zi, and Shi Che holds Heizi.

Thinking of the incident that he was reported to when he went out, Shi Che put a black spot on the chessboard and smiled: "By the way, Brother Huang, when I went out here, I heard the owner of the Qianzhuang report that there was a pair of people named Xuanyuan. The young couple exchanged 5,000 taels of gold for 50,000 taels of silver at the Laibao Bank in Yaoshui Town, Diangui County, Lizhou, and there were no words engraved on the gold. Obviously, the origin was unknown. The shopkeeper also sent someone to follow him, but he lost it, and obviously, the surname Xuanyuan must be fake."

"Xuanyuan..." Shi Yuan heard this surname, his expression was a little dazed for a while, and he couldn't help but murmured. In his last life, the two emperors he was loyal to were surnamed Xuanyuan... He finally died at the hands of an emperor surnamed Xuanyuan and drank the poisonous wine that was given to him...

"Brother Huang? Brother Huang?" Shi Che called out twice, but he couldn't get a response from his brother, so he stretched out his hand and pushed gently: "Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?"

Only then did Shi Yuan come back to his senses and said with a smile, "It's nothing."

Look at his younger brother in this life, and look at his wife and children in this life. In his last life, he had no younger brother, and no wife and children...

But in his last life, he didn't protect anyone in his family, but in this life, he has protected everyone in his family.

It's just, the family in this life,

They are no longer family members.

He would often dream about his family from his previous life, wake up startled, and sit there all night. Can those family members in his previous life be as lucky as him, reborn in another world, in another person, and then live well...

*

Great ling.

On the third day of the new year, in the morning, Jiang Yue and the others went to the fourth uncle Xue Dagui's house for dinner. At noon, they went to visit relatives at the aunt Xue Daxi's house, which is to eat.

Because I went to my aunt's house for dinner in the evening, my aunt's house was not in Huaishu Village, but on the other side of Ping'an Town, so everyone went to my aunt's house together at two quarters of the afternoon.

Naturally, we have to pass through Ping'an Town.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan made an excuse to stay in Ping'an Town for a while, and took a lot of flour from the grain warehouse in Ping'an Town and put it into the space.

These flours are naturally used for posting missing people notices in Dachen. Wherever you can post and send missing people notices, you can hire people to boil them and post them.

I ate dinner at my aunt's house. Because the road was a bit far, I didn't play cards at my aunt's house, and went home directly.

Otherwise it will be too late to go home.

How could the children stay up so late without going to sleep.

The children's carriage was faster, so when they got home, they were much earlier than Jiang Yue's carriage. Because Jiang Yue was pregnant, Xue Yan drove the carriage very slowly, and did not return home until four quarters of Hai Shi. Li Hehua and Xue Bo shared a carriage with her, and it was only at this time that they returned home.

After a simple wash, it's time.

It's so late, Jiang Yue didn't plan to go to Dachen tonight, but said to Xue Yan, "The substantive and ironclad evidence pointing to the protective umbrella... The prefect of Lizhou must have hidden such an important thing well, it's not We can find it so easily. If we want to get this iron proof, it will not be enough for a few days. It is estimated that it may take ten days and a half months or even longer. Every time we open the black gate, it is not far from Stone Village. It’s also troublesome to go back and forth, we’d better stay in Dachen for ten days or half a month next time.”

After a pause, he added: "Although it is difficult for us to leave the house for a day or two because of the Chinese New Year, it is still possible to leave the house for half a day. In this way, we can also stay in Dachen for half a month. It's just right, we will not be at home tomorrow night. When we go to someone's house for dinner, we will take a break, then we will go back to the room earlier, go to Dachen, and stay until the dawn of the day before returning."

Xue Yan said: "It's true that you can stay in Dachen for about half a month, but you won't have much time to rest until you come back soon after dawn."

His Yuebao was pregnant with a child, so he was naturally somewhat concerned.

Although both the doctor and the doctor said that his Yuebao couldn't sleep for that long, he couldn't sleep less or sleep less.

Jiang Yue said: "I just need to sleep a little more in Dachen."

Xue Yan then agreed: "Yes."

The next day, the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, in the evening, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan went back to their room a lot earlier, and they went back to their room at 7:00 a.m. The family thought they were sleepy early today, and no one came to disturb them.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan naturally turned off the lights and entered the space.

But he didn't rush to open the black door. Instead, he opened the white door first and went to the shed not far from the white door to get a missing person notice.

They originally planned to find someone while solving the heavy taxation here.

The printing room of the base has helped to copy many missing notices, which have been transported to the shed with the help of a passenger plane, filling the two shed rooms.

Jiang Yue directly put all the tracing notices in the two rooms into the space. With so many tracing notices, it must be enough for a long time. If it is not enough, I will not let the base continue to help copy it. In case people have already found them by then, there are still a lot of tracing notices in hand.

There is a missing person notice, and the flour was also put into the space yesterday, and some other things have been prepared and put in the space in the past two days. Anyway, everything is ready, and you can go to Dachen.

Only then did Xue Yan open the black door, and the two of them came together again.

The two of them just casually looked from afar, and saw that the early rice has been harvested here, and the late rice seedlings have been planted. Looking at the growth of the field, Dachen looks like it is about mid-to-late July.

In fact, according to Daling one day Dachen one month, in fact, it can also be launched now is the middle and late July.

It is estimated that the field they can see in the distance is from Shitou Village, and the growth is still very gratifying. It is completely different from the early rice planted before. It is obviously the late rice seed she took out from the space.

Before Jiang Yue and Xue Yan entered Shitou Village, they saw the people in Shitou Village drying the rice. The rice was actually quite dry, but it was still drying.

Just as Tao Zhen came out of his eldest brother's house, he saw Jiang Yue and Xue Yan at a glance, and immediately came over and cupped his hands: "Mr. Xue, Mrs. Jiang."

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan also bowed their hands and returned the salute.

"I thought that the two of you would end up here. Even if you go home, you will soon be able to come back to the village again. I didn't expect that you will only see you two months later when you return home." Tao Zhen laughed.

At the end, he added another sentence: "Today's July 19th."

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other. This Tao Zhen is really smart, no matter if he sees it or not, he doesn't ask anything, and he can even tell them directly what they want to know.

"It's really thanks to the late rice seeds you gave me. Look how good the rice in our field is." Tao Zhen pointed to the distance again.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both followed the direction of Tao Zhen's finger and glanced at the field in the distance. Then, Jiang Yue asked, "How is your early rice harvest? Is it enough to pay the tax?"

Tao Zhen shook his head and said, "The early rice harvest is the same as before. It's not very good, and it's not enough to pay taxes." Then he laughed again, "Fortunately, by selling vegetables in the past few months, everyone in the village has made some money. A little money from selling vegetables is enough. The remaining money is enough for us to live. It is much better than before. Moreover, the late rice is growing so well now, and the harvest should be good at that time. Our life It's not a problem anyway."

Jiang Yue nodded.

Xue Yan also nodded.

"Then you have harvested this early rice, when will you pay the tax?" Jiang Yue asked.

Tao Zhen: "If the rice is not dry enough, the government will not accept it. Therefore, the government has stipulated that at the end of July, that is, in the 29th or 30th year, the rice must have been dried by us, and the government will collect it. Our village pays the tax for early rice on these two days every year, and other villages also start from the end of this month, but the specific date varies from village to village. According to the county government, it is afraid that all villages will pay tax in one place. , the people in charge of tax collection in the county government are too busy."

Jiang Yue then said, "Don't keep the seeds for Zao Rice, and I will give you the Zao Rice seeds for next year."

Tao Zhen also felt that there was a problem with the seeds in their village. Like other villages, some villages had much better harvests than Shitou Village. I saw Tao Zhen was busy and solemnly surrendered, and was extremely moved: "Thank you so much. ."

After a pause, he couldn't help but say again: "I know you don't want us to repay anything, but if there is anything that needs my help, Tao Zhen, or even anyone in Stone Village, please be sure to tell me."

"Okay." Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both nodded. Knowing what they said, whether it was Tao Zhen or other people in Shitou Village, they would feel a little bit better in their hearts.

Otherwise, it will be more uncomfortable.

After talking again, Tao Zhen went home, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan continued to walk forward, greeting them every time they encountered a villager, and came up to say a few words.

All the way to the door of Zhang Dazhu's house, Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou have already dried the early rice on the rice field, and are now feeding the horses behind the house.

The chatter and laughter of the father and son came to the front, and Jiang Yue and Xue Yan knew where Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou were without asking anyone.

"Father, look at how strong this horse is. Young Master Xue and Madam Jiang must have spent a lot of money to buy it." Zhang Shoushou said happily to his father while filling the manger with water.

He and his father are helping and looking after such a precious thing, he is proud!

Zhang Dazhu is also very proud, touching the horse is like touching his son, "Why don't you say, as soon as I saw this horse, it was like seeing a lot of money. However, it has been almost two months, Xue Gongzi and Jiang Why hasn't Madam come back. It should be coming soon. It was almost two months before we saw them again last time."

"I don't know," Zhang Shoushou said. "We don't know where their house is, otherwise we can go—" asked.

But before Zhang Shoushou finished speaking, he saw Jiang Yue and Xue Yan came to the back of the house through the side road. He immediately called to his father: "Daddy, it's Young Master Xue and Madam Jiang!"

"Ah, you guys are really here again!" Zhang Dazhu finally found out, "Haha, I know, and I will see you every time it's almost two months later!"

Xue Yan smiled and said, "It just happened to be. We don't even know when we will come."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just guessing." Zhang Dazhu laughed. "You just came here, and you came here behind. Are you going to use a carriage?"

"Yeah." Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both nodded.

Zhang Dazhu immediately shouted: "Shou Shou, go and pull the wooden cart over and put it on!"

"Hey!" Zhang Shoushou, with long hands and feet, ran over at once. The wooden cart was actually placed not far away, and it was pulled over after a while.

Xue Yan and Jiang Yue naturally also rode the carriage together.

When setting up the carriage, Jiang Yue said, "My husband and I are going to Fucheng, and it will take about half a month to come back."

"Oh." Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou both nodded, but their hands kept moving.

After a little hesitation, Jiang Yue still warned: "If the government wants to collect taxes, you must not conflict with the government."

No one in Stone Village had a background. Once there was a conflict with the government, she and her family, Xue Yan, couldn't always stay in Stone Village. Naturally, it was the people of Stone Village who suffered.

And as long as there is irrefutable evidence from the prefect, the heavy taxation in the Lizhou area will be resolved quickly.

Since it can be resolved, now there is no need to cause any conflict with the government to make myself suffer.

"Before I was so poor, I had nothing to eat, and I didn't have any conflicts with the government. Now, even if I pay taxes, I can still live and live well. We won't have any conflicts with the government." Zhang Dazhu laughed happily. "Don't worry, I will also take care of Shoushou. Shoushou is the most impulsive in the village, and he can't do anything with his head. If it wasn't for me, he would have worked with the tax collector when he collected taxes last year. Woke up."

Zhang Shoushou felt a little aggrieved, and hummed: "Last year, they were too much. We didn't take much food, and we took all our food away. We all have nothing to eat, and we have no money to buy food. , will starve to death."

"So," Zhang Dazhu answered immediately, "now we won't starve to death. Besides, it's better to live than to die. Why do we work hard with those people if we can survive."

"Father, you're right." Zhang Shoushou looked adored. "Then those people will collect taxes again, and I don't want to fight with them."

"Good son, good son." Zhang Dazhu was very happy when his son was taught.

Jiang Yue actually thought that Zhang Shoushou had an impulsive personality and would most likely conflict with the tax collector. Now that Zhang Shoushou has no such heart, she naturally has nothing to worry about.

Xue Yan is the same.

After setting up the carriage, Xue Yan helped Jiang Yue to get on the carriage. Then, he drove the carriage. Zhang Dazhu and Zhang Shoushou insisted on sending them to the entrance of the village.

The Fucheng around Lizhou was much farther from Shitou Village than Diankui County. In addition, the carriage was slow due to Jiang Yue's pregnancy, and it didn't arrive at Fucheng until evening.

I didn't go to any inn near the government office to stay there, so I went straight to the nearest inn and stayed there first.

Xue Yan asked Jiang Yue to sleep first, and then he asked the innkeeper to find out where the Fuya was located in Fucheng, and who was looking for renting a courtyard in Fucheng. Who are you looking for in Fucheng...etc.

It would take him more than ten days to stay in Fucheng. He rented a courtyard and lived with his family Yuebao. It would be much more convenient to bring out the flour and a notice of missing persons.

Heavy taxes have to be resolved, and people have to look for them.

After inquiring about these, the next day, after having breakfast at the inn, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan rented a courtyard that they could live in that day, and moved from the inn to that courtyard.

Then I took out a lot of missing persons notices and flour and put them in a room in the courtyard.

Then they went to hire someone to hire a carriage.

I can't wait for the next day. In the afternoon, some of the hired people are responsible for boiling the flour into a paste, and some are responsible for the area of ​​Lizhou, including Fucheng, but they post and send missing people notices everywhere except in Dianqi County. , the hired carriage is naturally responsible for transporting these.

Because Jiang Yue and Xue Yan agreed in advance, they will randomly check at any time. If there is a perfunctory, such as not posting and sending a notice of missing people at all, they will not be paid. Therefore, these hired people and the coachman of the carriage will not be paid. For fear that I would do nothing for a day and randomly check myself, I naturally did not dare to perfunctory one point.

Soon it was night again.

They have rented a courtyard and moved in. They must be living in the courtyard tonight.

And this courtyard is naturally not very far from the government office.

In addition, the streets around this courtyard are quite prosperous, so renting this courtyard is naturally not cheap.

We arrived at the palace last night, and after another day, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were somewhat familiar with this palace.

I know that the prefect of Lizhou is called Fan Jianxi.

I also know that this prefect has a very good reputation in the city. Streets and alleys say that he is diligent in government and loves the people, and his access is extremely simple.

He also said that he was sometimes stopped by some people on the road and cried to him about the heavy taxation. Not only did he not blame the people, but he also shed tears. No one blamed him.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both felt that Fan Jianxi was much smarter than the magistrate of Diangui, unlike the magistrate of Dianku, everyone just didn't say anything in person, but they chewed their tongues in private.

Xue Yan had visited the county government at night before, but this time he came to Fucheng, and it was the prefect of Zha.

This night, Jiang Yue was asked to sleep first, and Xue Yan went to the government office.

Naturally, it is a night clothes.

There are a little more yamen on duty in the government office than in the county government office, but for Xue Yan, it was just like that, he still easily entered the government office without anyone finding out.

The iron evidence must have been hidden by the prefect. After all, it is the amulet of the prefect. Therefore, Xue Yan didn't expect to find any iron evidence when he came tonight. Can know who the umbrella is.

So, Xue Yan naturally sneaked into Fan Jianxi's usual office.

But this Fan Jianxi is like the old fox. In the office, except for some official documents, there is no need to hide things at all, and there is nothing else.

There is no trace of it.

There was no gain in the office, so Xue Yan looked in the other rooms in the front yard of the mansion, but there was no gain.

The government office also has a warehouse, and he also secretly went in to check it. He also has the tax records of Dianku County, but it is the general record, which is consistent with the general record that is also placed in the warehouse on the Ming surface of Dianku County, although he still does not know. Who is the protective umbrella, but it is very obvious, and it shows that Fan Jianxi and Dianqi county magistrate are the same raccoon dog.

I went to the backyard of the government office, where Fan Jianxi, the prefect and his family lived, had a look.

Because it was late at night, except for the night watchman, everyone else slept.

Although there are night watchmen, it can be seen that except for the yamen who wear the special clothes of the yamen, the servants like maids are dressed in extremely simple clothes.

Xue Yan didn't rush in to check the room where there were people, but only checked some unoccupied rooms, especially the hall. The layout of those rooms was also very simple, such as tea sets and other things, which were very ordinary or even deviated. No wonder people outside are so convinced of Fan Jianxi's integrity.

Then Xue Yan returned to the rented courtyard.

After changing out of his night clothes, he simply washed them before returning to the room where he and his Yuebao lived in this courtyard.

This courtyard is just him and his family Yuebao, there is no one else, what to do is much more convenient.

Jiang Yue had fallen asleep, but she didn't open her eyes until she heard the sound, knowing that her family's Xue Yan had come back, and she didn't get up, but she knew that her family's Xue Yan had come to the room, and also went to the bed, hugging her , she asked, "How is it?"

Xue Yan shook his head and sighed again, indicating that nothing was found.

Jiang Yue knew that Fan Jianxi was an old fox. Otherwise, her family's Xue Yan had been out for so long, and it would have been impossible for him not to find any clues.

In the days that followed, because Jiang Yue was pregnant, Xue Yan tried her best not to let her ride in the carriage, but to rest more, while Xue Yan herself was quite busy, and would randomly check one or two or even three places on horseback during the day. , to see if those hired people have been helping to post and send missing people notices, and they are still probing the government office at night.

Moreover, instead of going to explore late at night, I went to see if I could hear anything when it was dark.

But for ten days in a row, there was still no trace of it.

It's rare to be so cunning.

Today, the first day of the eighth lunar month in Dachen, in two days, they will stay in Dachen for half a month this time, and they will return to Daling at that time, and they still have nothing to gain. Jiang Yue pondered for a while. , then said: "Forget it, let's not check like this, there will be no results, or everyone will be knocked out, let's check it at the government office, and by the way, we will search Fan Jianxi's body to see if there is anything. It stands to reason that there should be something on the person involved. Fan Jianxi is so cunning, he will definitely leave some iron evidence of the umbrella as a talisman for himself, and these days, Fan Jianxi has not been anywhere else, basically not in the government office The front yard is in the back yard of the government office. Didn’t we also ask people about it, didn’t we all say that the prefect of Fan Jianxi is really diligent in government affairs, and he is basically in the government office? I think the iron evidence in his hands must be in the government. Ya Nei. Just be careful, don't be afraid of making noise. This will knock people unconscious."
