The law of the Ming Dynasty said: The method of taxes and service is called Lijia, called equal labor, and called mixed labor, and for all three levels. The household is called Jia, and the D is called labor service. The emperor's order is not the time, and all have strong labor and hired labor service. The prefectures and counties check the number of Dings, the thickness of the work, so that the equal power is suitable for the strength.

Although Zhou brought Chen Xi to the city, Yi's family's household registration was still in Taohua Village. Anyone who had corvee labor or levies would still be allocated according to Taohua Village's household registration.

According to the Huang Books made by the government, the Shen family will be sent to labor service next year. The old lady Li's intention was to select people from the second and third uncles of Chenxi to serve as the role. After all, the fourth and fifth brothers of Shen Mingxin and the fifth brothers of Shen Mingjun, who can make money to support the family, were left behind. However, it was obvious that the old lady could not make a decision without authorization for such a thing.

The fourth uncle Shen Mingxin brought his wife to the city to pick up his son, which actually meant to discuss with Shen Mingjun.

During the Chinese New Year, everyone gathered together. If no result was found, the government would definitely be young and strong in the levy, and Shen Mingxin and Shen Mingjun would be selected. Now, due to the Liulang Shen Yuan’s affairs, there was a little unpleasant relationship between the two houses, and it was difficult to guarantee that the family would make any trouble when discussing things later.

After dinner, Zhou found an inn near the alley and arranged for Shen Mingxin and three others to stay.

Early the next morning, when Shen Mingxin's family left the county town, Zhou gave a lot of things, but Feng was not very convinced. After all, the things were taken back must be distributed by the old lady. With Li's partiality, the boss's family must have the most, and the four-bedroom family can get very limited.

In Feng's opinion, the better the Lao Wu family lives in the city, the more money they bring back to the family, the more unfavorable it is for their family. The corvee labor distributed after the New Year is likely to be borne by her husband, so she has a deeper relationship with Lao Wu's family.

After seeing off Shen Mingxin's house, Zhou came to the pharmacy shop. He saw that the shop had already opened and there were few customers. Chen Xi was helping Hui Niang pulverize medicine. She sighed softly and walked over and waved her hand and said, "The shop has no business, I'll do this little work. You can go back and review your homework!"

Seeing that my mother looked solemn, Chen Xi knew that she understood the serious consequences of offending Shen Mingxin and his wife, and turned around and was probably even more isolated and helpless in the Shen family.

Zhou did not take Shen Yuan in. It was not because she was selfish and stingy. She was really busy with work and couldn’t take care of her. It was nothing for Chen Xi to help her at the pharmacy, but Shen Yuan was different. Maybe she would have other worries at that time. Besides, if Shen Yuan was taken in, what would Shen Yongzhuo, who was sixteen years old after the New Year? They were all family members, so you can’t favor one or the other!

Chen Xi put down the medicine pestle, stood up and stretched, and before leaving the door, he heard Hui Niang comfort him: "Sister, don't be depressed. There are always older people who can support the family affairs, and they will not fall into the younger generation."

Back at home in the back alley, Lin Dai and Lu Xier were playing in the yard. The little girl had nothing to do on weekdays, so she had to be strong and had no eyesight. In fact, there was nothing else to do except play.

Lin Dai can occasionally help cook while cooking. Lu Xier just sleeps well, eats when she is tired, and sleeps when she is full, and lives a carefree life every day. Because of the arrival of Chen Xi and Lin Dai, Lu Xier's personality has become much cheerful. When she sees Chen Xi, she always likes to revolve around this brother.

"Brother Chen Xi, come and teach us the Three Character Classic."

When Lu Xier saw Chen Xi enter the door, she immediately pestered her again.

Chen Xi touched her head and said, "I have something to do. You guys have fun first and I will teach you when I come back. Don't go out. It's very dangerous outside, especially Dai'er. Recently, there are a group of people in the city who are looking for some missing criminals' family. Don't go out if you have nothing to do."

Lin Daiyi listened, and a slight fear appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Chen Xi could guess a little bit, so he turned around and went out, asking Lin Dai to close the door.

Chen Xi went to the abandoned pig house behind the Wang family mansion to find Wang Lingzhi because he didn't have to go to school during the holiday during the New Year. He had already made an appointment with Wang Lingzhi to have fun. In fact, Chen Xi wanted to ask Wang Lingzhi about his father.

When we arrived at the pig house, Wang Lingzhi had arrived a long time ago. He was "practice of swordsmanship" with a bamboo stick. He used his moves and looked decent.

The official name of this set of swordsmanship is the Twenty-Four Styles Kunlun Sword. It was learned by Chen Xi when he was archaeological in Wuhan, Hubei. The entire set of swordsmanship has a large range of movements and a magnificent momentum, mainly attack, assassination, fierce and sharp assassination, changeable footwork, wide range of movement, and continuous movements, like flowing clouds and water.

After Wang Lingzhi learned basic martial arts, he felt that he was not satisfied and he was entangled. Chen Xi could not bear it and had to teach this set of sword techniques used to exercise in his previous life. As a result, Wang Lingzhi felt like he had gained a treasure after learning and was fascinated by learning.

After seeing Chen Xi, Wang Lingzhi used sword techniques from beginning to end towards Chen Xi. From the beginning, he passed the incense sticks to the sky, pulling out weeds to find snakes, splitting mountain agarwood and other moves until the green dragon soared and closed. After doing it, he was panting, wiped his head full of sweat and asked, "Senior Brother, how do you think I practice?"

"It's like that."

Chen Xi responded and asked, "Is your father back?"

Wang Lingzhi shook his head and then added: "I asked my aunt that my father should be back in the next few days. Senior brother, I have almost practiced my sword skills. When will you take me to see the master?"

The things that the two of them pay attention to were not the same. Chen Xi did not want to expose the dream of a young man's knight. He said, "If you have a chance in the future," and stopped talking about martial arts.

When he got home at noon, Zhou happily took a letter to Chen Xi and said, "Your father is back from sending the letter. Please beg for a moment, what is it written on it?"

"Mom, why didn't you show it to aunt? Auntie is also literate!"

Zhou slapped Shen Xi on the forehead: "Your Aunt Sun is a widow and she has a daughter. Why should I stimulate her if I have nothing to do? Look, otherwise what's the use of letting you study?"

Chen Xi opened the envelope disapprovingly, took out the letter and looked at it. Only then did he realize that his father followed Wang Changnie to Wuchang Mansion in Huguang to visit his son in prison. He said that he could come back at the time of the trip of 17 or 18, so that Zhou would not have to worry.

Chen Xi said the contents of the letter, and Zhou couldn't help but wiped his tears: "This is a heartless person. He doesn't say anything to his family when he goes out. Instead, we are worried about him."

"Mom, didn't my father say that, because the head of the Wang family was in a hurry and he went on the road before he could go home to inform him. Don't be sad."

Zhou finally let go of her worries about her husband, her face was flushed, and hummed a little song and went into the kitchen to start cooking. After the cooking, she picked up some food boxes for each dish and asked Chen Xi to send it to Hui Niang.

The two families are so good now that they are like their family. Zhou's husband has no news these days, and he has been a widow for a while. She feels that Hui Niang is a bit sympathetic.

In the afternoon, Chen Xi went to "Siguzhai" to see the paintings he had sold, and was surprised to find that they had sold them.

Manager Xu smiled and said, "You are lucky. The magistrate Gao Sheng is going to Nanzhili and bought your paintings. This is for you."

Chen Xi took the small purse over and opened the bag to see that the white flowers inside were all covered with silver, but unfortunately they were all scattered.

"Uncle Xu, you don't even say how much you sold. Are you talking about the details so that you can find someone else to give me a title?"

Manager Xu cursed: "You little brat don't understand the rules, don't you? The magistrate bought paintings and definitely didn't want outsiders to know. If you have the money, you can keep it well. No matter how badly you don't even give you this little money."

Chen Xi suddenly stopped talking.

In love, County Magistrate Han bought paintings to give gifts to those nobles. Since he didn't want to be arrogant, he would not say anything if he had the money to collect.

After weighing the money he had at his hand, he could only make six or seven taels, and he would definitely earn more than last time. As for how much he had been cheated by Manager Xu, he didn't care much.

"Uncle Xu, if you have nothing to do, I'll leave first." Chen Xi bowed and said goodbye.

"Wait first, I want to know who asked you to sell paintings? According to the magistrate, the paintings you sent this time are good things, but this is not ordinary people's magistrates ask me, but I can't answer when I can't answer, so he looks unhappy."

"You kid's best to tell me the truth, so I know it, otherwise the government will hold you accountable and say it's a stolen stolen, but don't say that Uncle Xu, I don't talk about favors and give you."

Chen Xi smiled and said, "Uncle Xu, please don't worry. Think about it, even if it is a thief, it was bought by the county magistrate. Then the county magistrate is the person who sells the stolen goods. Can anyone still pursue this matter?"

"You little brat, please sincerely enjoy me, right?"

Xu Bo made a move to hit Chenxi, and Chenxi stuck out his tongue and ran away.

After leaving the gate of "Siguzhai", Chen Xi found an uninhabited corner, took out the silver in the bag and weighed it. It was not adulterated, and it was all the best silver.

If someone saw that his child had such a large amount of money, it might cause trouble. Silver is a good thing at any time, but Chenxi has no money spent. Zhou bought shares in the medicine shop and earned a lot of money every month. Unfortunately, most of it still had to be taken home.

The Shen family has not separated, and the old lady Li Shitian is the head of the Shen family. No matter which house you make money, you have to pay it. However, Zhou can also intercept the part, so you have to consider studying in Chen Xi.

Unfortunately, the money-free house can save it at this time and collect interest. All Chen Xiwei can do is to hide the silver and act like it is okay when you go home. If you need it, take out the silver and use it for later.

Having six or seven taels of silver on hand is enough for Yi's family to spend in the next two or three years. Even if there is any natural disaster, it can barely hold on.
