Chapter 16: Harvesting the Autumn Tax

The young couple's first cooperation was relatively successful.

Zhang Kun's family helped make the wooden nails used in these wolf traps, which undoubtedly greatly liberated Li Yuanjing and Yu Niang.

The essential……

Li Yuanjing, a black-hearted capitalist boss, didn't have to pay anything to make everyone in the Zhang family be grateful to him...

but.

Yuniang was still a little unsure. On the way back, she kept asking Li Yuanjing if she had lost her composure in any way.

Li Yuanjing teased her for a while, which instantly stirred up a hornet's nest. He didn't coax her until she got home.

But Li Yuanjing didn't notice...

Having more than two taels of money in hand really gave Yu Niang an endless sense of security. This girl has made an important decision decisively!



Dinner is crispy fish and white rice cooked by Yu Niang.

Although the seasoning is far from enough, it is somewhat of a later generation standard. Both Li Yuanjing and Yu Niang ate it deliciously.

But when Li Yuanjing was about to prepare other materials for the wolf trap, Yu Niang suddenly pulled Li Yuanjing with a red face and said extremely shyly:

"Brother, let's, let's take a rest..."

"Ai?"

Li Yuanjing was stunned for a moment and said with a smile:

"It's still early at this time, why are you resting so early? Mother Yu, if you are tired, go and rest first. Brother, please pack some things before going."

"elder brother……"

Yu Niang held Li Yuanjing's big hand but still refused to let go. She looked at Li Yuanjing again as if pleading, and said with great pain:

"Brother, don't you still dislike Yu Niang and don't want her to serve you and rest..."

"..."

No matter how stupid Li Yuanjing was, he understood what Yu Niang meant at this time.

This 'rest' is obviously not the simple 'rest' he imagined.

But the key thing is...

Li Yuanjing himself was fine, but Yu Niang was still young after all. How could Li Yuanjing be willing to mess around with such a lovely little girl?

"Brother, you, you really don't like Yu Niang?"

Seeing Li Yuanjing's performance, Yu Niang's pretty face, which was originally flushed with shame, suddenly began to turn pale, and soon turned pale.

Her little body couldn't stop shaking violently.

Obviously.

Li Yuanjing's silent rejection was like a knife, directly piercing all her defenses...

Seeing that Yu Niang was almost unsteady and about to fall down when the wind blew, Li Yuanjing slapped his forehead and finally came to his senses.

The values ​​of this era are obviously completely different from those of later generations.

I'm afraid that for Yu Niang, if she can't please herself in this regard, it will be a heinous sin...

Li Yuanjing suddenly picked up Yu Niang and threw her directly onto the earthen bed, taking off her clothes and laughing:

"You stinky girl, if you don't fight for three days, you will go to the house and uncover the tiles. How dare you provoke my brother? Let's see how he will deal with you tonight!"



The next morning.

The first ray of sunlight shone into her eyes, and Yu Niang opened her beautiful star-like eyes.

Seeing that Li Yuanjing was still sleeping soundly next to her, Yu Niang couldn't help but smile sweetly, and suddenly she mustered up the courage to kiss Li Yuanjing's cheek hard with her delicate red lips.

Last night, although she did not become her brother's real woman, she was no longer panicking and no longer anxious.

Because her brother has already explained a lot to her, why he won’t let her be his woman now...

Because she is still too young, her brother is afraid that if she is pregnant now, it will be difficult for her to give birth in the future.

My brother wants to spend the rest of his life with her. They both want to live a long life.

and……

As Yuniang thought about it, her pretty face couldn't help but turn red, like a red apple.

I really don’t know where my brother learned so many tricks. The key is, she doesn’t hate her at all...

Yuniang then made up her mind. When she has children in the future, she must let them study hard.

Anyone who dares to disobey will have their butts smashed.



I have money in my hand and I don’t feel panic.

Li Yuanjing spent a lot of energy taking care of his mother last night. He wanted to sleep a little longer, but he was woken up by the noise outside the hospital not long after.

When Li Yuanjing put on his clothes and came to the courtyard, he couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the scene at the entrance of the courtyard clearly.

I saw——

The three housekeepers of the Xue family, Xue An, Wang Cuihua, Hou Wu, as well as two Yamen servants and seven or eight servants in green clothes, were all spitting and shouting at Yu Niang.

But based on the previous experience of Li Yuanjing directly slashing Hou Wu, this group of people only dared to make noise outside the hospital, but did not dare to rush in directly.

"Steward Xue, gentlemen."

"I don't know why you came to call the students' doors early in the morning."

Seeing Li Yuanjing slowly coming to the entrance of the courtyard, Yu Niang also had a backbone. Her jade hand quickly grabbed Li Yuanjing's big hand and said in a low voice:

"Brother, I don't know what's going on. These people are going to collect the autumn tax from us today. But according to past practice, our family will pay it in the next few days..."

"hehe."

Li Yuanjing couldn't stop laughing.

How could he not know what kind of plan these people were planning?

No wonder he wanted to 'cut the knot with a quick knife', forcing himself into a desperate situation, and then forced himself to commit the crime of selling Yu Niang!

such a pity.

These people obviously made a wrong calculation.

"Yo."

"Li Shusheng, it's good that you, the rightful master, are here."

Butler Xue glanced at Li Yuanjing with a dark smile, and said to the two soap-robed officials next to him:

"Two gentlemen, this guy is Li Yuanjing. Our autumn tax is settled today."

The black-faced official at the head immediately shouted:

"Li Shusheng, you are also a well-educated and sensible person. Now that you have no fame, you cannot be exempted from tax as a rule. Why don't you open the door and pay this year's autumn taxes?"

The jade lady's hand that was holding Li Yuanjing's big hand tightened immediately, and she was about to step forward to pay taxes, but Li Yuanjing held her back, pretending to be unhappy and said to the black-faced official:

"Sir, as a disciple of Mingjiao, the student has no hesitation in paying taxes for the country. However, according to the usual practice, the student's house will not collect the money until five or six days later, right?"

"Isn't it against the rules for you to come here so early to collect taxes from students?"

"rule?"

"Hmm."

Xue An couldn't help but sneer:

"Li Shusheng, our Master Ma's words are the rules! He said that whose tax will be collected first, the tax will be collected first! Do you, Shusheng Li, want to resist the tax today?!"

Wang Cuihua also shouted proudly beside her:

"Li, you are a poor bitch, why did I tell you this? If you go against me, you can wait for the rest of your life!"

"hey-hey!"

"If you can't pay the autumn tax today, just wait until you go to Liaodong to guard the border!"

Hou Wu also laughed heartily:

"Li, what did I advise you before? If you had sold the little girl beside you to our Xue Dashan earlier, why would there be so many troubles?"

"It's a pity that you stupid idiot doesn't understand. Hahaha!"

"elder brother……"

Seeing how fierce these people were, Yu Niang couldn't hold herself any longer, her little body began to tremble again, and she quickly looked at Li Yuanjing pleadingly.

Obviously, he wanted Li Yuanjing to pay his taxes quickly and not to have anything to do with these gangsters again.

Li Yuanjing pulled Yu Niang behind him, looked at Xue An, the official Ma Ye and others with a sneer and said:

"Masters, it's okay for me to pay the autumn tax today. However, this slut and this slut must pay it today too!"

"Otherwise, there is no need to talk about this matter! I must follow the usual practice and hand it over in five days! I am a disciple of the Ming Cult, and I am not afraid of causing trouble to my parents!"

"Hey!"

"You poor bitch is looking for death! Let's see what I do to you!!!"

Hou Wu suddenly became anxious, and he really wanted to perform well in front of these 'noble people'. He immediately picked up the hatchet he had prepared at his waist and was about to rush in and fight Li Yuanjing for his life.

"stop!"

"What are you doing one by one?! Put the knife down quickly!"

However.

Just as Hou Wu started to shake the broken wooden door of Li Yuanjing's house, a familiar majestic shout suddenly came from the direction behind him.

Hou Wu was suddenly frightened and quickly wanted to hide the knife, but he didn't know where to hide it.
