Chu Pinggui was really sick, and the Chu family was not telling lies. However, he was still ill, but he was not bedridden. He was just angry in his heart and not feeling well in his body.
Doctor Zhang said that he needed to rest and not work too hard, otherwise his condition would be aggravated. Chu Pinggui cherished his old life very much. After listening to Doctor Zhang's words, he handed over all the things in the fields to his sons and stayed there honestly.
Maintain good health at home.
He thought that the eldest son was also a grandfather, and he should have supported the family long ago. In the past, he couldn't let go, so he didn't have the opportunity to exercise.
Now that he was sick and couldn't worry about it anymore, he just took the opportunity to put down his hands and let the eldest son take over the family affairs. Now he is trying to take care of the family.
Da Lang is still just a scholar now, so he has a lot of social interactions. If he becomes an official in the future, won't there be even more social interactions like this. He has to study and deal with all these things. He is already very tired. There is not much help from his family.
At least it can't hold him back, so someone needs to support him.
And this person is naturally the boss.
He is a bad old man with little knowledge and cannot handle such an important matter.
So now is the right time to hand over this home to him.
Chu Pinggui always felt that Chu Shouren was the most capable among his five sons, and he was relieved to leave the family to him.
Because of his inexplicable confidence in his eldest son, he wanted to be happy and just put his hands down, not worrying about it at all and just focusing on recuperating at home, but he didn't expect that Chu Shouren would not be able to pick it up at all.
Because Chu Shouyi, Chu Shouzhi and Chu Shouxin were not convinced by him.
Even Chu Erlang, a junior, was not convinced by him.
As for the Yang family, Bai family and Sang family, let alone that.
Why is he cooling off in the shade of a tree but asking them to work in the sun?
Why can the Kong family hide and relax at home, but they have to go to the fields with the masters?
When we have to work, we all work together. When we need to enjoy the cool weather, we all work together. No one should try to take advantage.
Chu Shouren put on the air of an old official and tried to suppress this group of careless people, but no one bought his account.
Don't say that Chu Dalang hasn't become an official yet. Even if he becomes an official, they are also officials, okay? Why should they be sent by you?
Brothers, if you want to suppress me, I want to pinch you. If we get together, we are not working, but making trouble.
Of course it's not something serious.
They don't do anything serious at all.
When the wheat is being harvested, they are quarreling. When the wheat is being dried and put into the barn, they are still quarreling. You say I won’t do it, and I think you don’t do it. They are all afraid that if you work too hard, you will suffer a big loss.
Just when Chu Pinggui felt something was wrong and urged Chu Shouren to take back the wheat, a continuous heavy rain rotted the Chu family's wheat into the field.
They have nothing to gain.
Chu Pinggui wanted to cry but had no tears.
But this matter is not just as simple as their family losing this season's harvest.
If you plant the Fang family's land, you have to pay rent and bear half of the land tax, even if there is no harvest.
Because Mr. Fang was very angry when he found out about their family's behavior. He felt that they were not serious farmers. They didn't even take good care of the crops, and because they were lazy, they ruined all the mature grain. They were worse than pigs and dogs.
Mr. Fang was very angry, very angry.
If there is no interest collection due to natural disasters, he can reduce the rent or not collect it, but this is man-made and he will never tolerate it.
This rent must be collected.
Harvesting should also be based on the highest yield per mu.
Otherwise they won't remember this lesson.
At least he didn't worry about whether the Chu family would find excuses to default on their debts.
It's okay if you don't hand it over, and the land will be taken back.
After hearing what the steward of the Fang family conveyed, Chu Pinggui fainted without even lifting his breath.
Now the condition is really serious.
But it's not as serious as Chu Shouren said.
He has not yet reached the point where his life is in danger.
But Chu Shouli couldn't stand his concern, and he felt guilty, so he took out ten taels of silver and gave it to him without hesitation, saying that it was time to see a doctor and get medicine, so don't feel bad about the money.
When Chu Shouren saw that he could easily take out ten taels of silver and live in such a big house, his eyes turned red with jealousy. However, he was now a scholar's father, and his status was different from the past, so he just wanted to scheme against his brothers.
He couldn't show his family property openly, so he hid his thoughts and didn't say any harsh words. He even gave Chu Shouli a few words of praise.
Chu Shouli was quite happy after being praised, but his good mood did not last long because Chu Shouyi came again, then Chu Shouzhi, and Chu Shouxin.
Together, this is a turn-by-turn battle, one by one taking turns to trim the hair.
Not to mention he doesn't have much money, even if he has money, he can't withstand such oppression.
Chu Shouli was very sad.
I also gradually became colder.
When Chu Shouyi came, he gave him five taels. When Chu Shouzhi came, he gave him twenty taels. Now that Chu Shouxin came, he directly said he had no money.
"Third brother, what do you mean?"
Chu Shouxin slapped the table and said, "Why do you, boss, second and fourth, give you money when they come, but you don't give me money when I come? How do you look down on people?!"
Seeing Qu Shuchun looking at him with a wary expression, he cursed again, "You poor Qiu Feng, what are you doing when you look at me like this and you still want to hit someone? Get out of here now, you are making people angry just by looking at me!"
"
Chu Shouli couldn't bear it anymore, so he just scolded him. Shuchun had done well not to provoke him, but he still wanted to scold him. It was too much, "This is my home, you have no right to tell Shuchun to leave."
Hearing what he said, Chu Shouxin became even more angry, "Your home?! Oh my god! Didn't you just get a few dirty dollars by selling your daughter's hair? You even got into a fight with me, thinking that I am afraid of you!"
He banged the table and said, "Chu Shouli! Let me tell you, if you don't give me money today, I will go to the street to publicize the good deeds your daughter has done..."
Chu Shouli was so angry that he turned red, "Chu Shouxin! If you talk nonsense again, I will beat you up!"
"You dare to be a coward, but don't sell your daughter if you have the ability..."
Chu Shouli clenched his fists and was about to move forward to hit someone. Unexpectedly, Qu Shuchun was faster than him. He grabbed Chu Shouxin and dragged him to the yard despite his struggle. Then he threw him to the ground and started kicking him.
Hearing the noise, Xiao Huihui ran over from the backyard. When he saw it, he stepped forward and bit him. Chu Shouxin was so frightened that he was scared out of his mind and screamed lifelessly.
Mrs. Shu lay on the screen wall and peered in. After confirming that Xiao Huihui was biting someone, she turned around and ran to Lin Daye's house. She originally wanted to take Lin Daye's house to have a look, but there were many witnesses.
It proves that this person surnamed Chu not only raises wolves, but also allows them to commit crimes. It is really dangerous to be a neighbor of such a family.
They should be driven away.
She had a good idea, but the Tang family belonged to Lin Daye's family and would not cooperate with her. She would not go to other people's homes to cause trouble.
Shu was so angry that she didn't dare to take it out on Tang, so she went to the street to find the patrolling yamen, saying that there were evil wolves eating people. She was so surprised that several yamen's faces turned green, and when they hurriedly arrived at Chu's house with her, they
I saw a wolf dog standing obediently in the yard watching Chu Shouli and Qu Shuchun working. The sound of weaving was heard in the house. The rhythm was very strong, which made me very energetic.
