Chapter 291 292 Cut the meat

After Pei Da waited for Wang Zheng to leave, he went into the room and put away the banknotes. He went out to buy some wine and meat and carried them to the government's prison. After recruiting the prison guards to eat and drink, he took out the banknotes and distributed them to each of the people on duty. Everyone was happy. He tacitly put the bank note into his pocket.

  After Grandma Wang came out of the Four Seas Bank, Chu Feng went to the government office and found Zhou Jiami in the prison to talk for a while before leaving.

Among the people sent by Liu Yi to Zhuangzi, there were twelve men in their forties and fifties, eight women and old women, and their average age was in their fifties, with children in their teens to four or five years old. There are about twenty in total, sixteen boys and seven girls. Jixiang divided them into two groups. The women lived in the downside rooms in the outer courtyard, and the men lived in the long workshops in the drying field.

  Mr. Wen also helped to take the pulse of those people and checked whether there were any infectious diseases. It was found that they all suffered from malnutrition to varying degrees, lack of qi and blood, and most of the older ones had rheumatism and bone pain.

  Mr. Wen said to Jixiang: "I'll go back and make some medicine. Tomorrow you ask the grocery buyer to buy some soybeans and stew with big bones for those children to eat. These two are the most supportive."

   Jixiang smiled and said, "Thank you, old man."

  Mr. Wen said cheerfully: "Thank me for what? Your master and wife are willing to help these poor people, I am happy."

These people are auspicious before signing the contract, and they have made the rules clear to them. Those who stay in the village are not allowed to gamble, fight, or bully the weak. These people are honest people who are bullied outside. See Zhuangzi looked at the window and thought to himself; as long as he didn't slack off, he would no longer worry about not being able to eat or being bullied, and he happily signed the contract.

After the deed was signed, a number plate was issued to everyone, Jixiang and Mrs. Yun took them to the bath room separately, and said to them: "There is a bath room, everyone takes turns to go in and wash themselves, Madam has already told us to buy I will make clothes for you, and everyone will enter the house according to the number to find their own beds."

   Everyone responded in unison: "I see, auspicious stewards."

   After washing and cleaning, about 40 people went to the dormitory and saw the clean and tidy beds and desks in front of the bunks. They touched the brand-new and fluffy bedding, and their eyes were red.

   At this time, I heard Mrs. Yun and Mrs. Zhang shouting from outside: "It's time to eat, it's time to eat."

   Only then did everyone feel their stomachs growl and swarmed into the dining room. Sister-in-law Zhang and Mrs. Yun pointed to the thick porridge in the wooden bucket and the steamed buns in the steamer and said, "Come one by one, don't grab it, everyone has it."

A group of people consciously lined up, and after a while they ate thick boiled white rice porridge, multi-grain steamed buns and two kinds of side dishes. Everyone slowly drank the thick porridge, bit the soft multi-grain steamed buns, and ate oil. Stir-fried cabbage and cold shredded radish, I thought to myself: how good it would be to eat the same every day!

Ji Jixiang watched the children hide their steamed buns, and did not reprimand them, but said with a smile, "Don't hide the steamed buns! Everyone gets up at midnight tomorrow morning. After washing up, the four of them help Granny Yun and Aunt Zhang burn a fire and wash them. Dish, eat at the hour, go to work in the field after dinner, the madam will come to Zhuangzi at about the hour, do you understand?"

   "Understood." Hearing that there would be food in the morning, those who had hidden steamed buns also took out the steamed buns hidden in their arms and ate it, but some people still hid it with suspicion.

Zhou Jia returned to the Houya and saw that Li Yu had listed a few rules in the study. After asking, he found out that it was a solemn rule. Zhou Jia saw that it was written: First, to unite and love each other, and not to fight,  … ·,

   Li Yu smiled and said to Zhou Jia after he wrote it: "Don't be idle! Help me transcribe it, I can only show you the word."

   Zhou Jia bowed and said with a smile: "My wife ordered it, the little one must obey."

While resting at night, Zhou Jia told Li Yu that Wang Chun and Liu Moyan had signed and detained them, and that Chu Feng had come to find him, and said to Li Yu, "Yu'er, Mrs. Wang said that his family Wang Chun was wronged. , said that I tortured him, and if there is no accident, tomorrow Wang Chun will revise his confession, and Liu Moyan will take all the crimes."

  Li Yu looked at him and said, "Then what are you going to do?"

Zhou Jia looked at Li Yu a little ashamed, "Chu Feng came to me to tell us not to force the Wang family to jump over the wall. After all, the Wang family has been entrenched in Yuncheng for a hundred years, and it has already flourished. Look at my forefoot after Wang Chun. Immediately, someone tipped off to Wang Qinghai, and we can't prevent them from going crazy."

  Li Yu looked at Zhou Jia and smiled lightly: "The world belongs to Your Majesty, he can let it go! Wang Chun! There will be other ways to deal with him, but before that, we have to cut some meat off."

   Zhou Jia threw Li Yu down and said in her ear, "Aren't you afraid that the people above will grab us?"

Li Yu bit his ear and said, "Let's not take a penny. After we receive it, we will write a note and send it to the person above him. The rest will be used for Xicheng Xiuxiu and Wang's money. It was also collected, and we took it from the people and used it for the people.”

   Zhou Jia kissed Li Yu's eyes and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you and pick meat for Fuming'er."

The next day, the sky was clear and Zhou Jia went to the yamen in high spirits. Not long after he sat down, a jailer came to report that Wang Chun was wronged in the prison. Liu Moyan left a confession letter and wanted to hang himself, but was rescued. .

  Wang Qinghai looked in a hurry and found Zhou Jia's prison cell, and said to Zhou Jia: "Sir, the humble clan uncle has been wronged, please ask the lord to forgive me."

Zhou Jia smiled and showed him Wang Chun's confession, and said with a smile: "Master Wang, although Liu Moyan has taken all the crimes, what does Wang Chun say about the five stone powder? Shi San, what crime do you think you should be sentenced to for disobeying the Holy Order of the late emperor and His Majesty?"

   Wang Qinghai looked at Zhou Jia, "What do you mean?" Zhou Jia glanced at Wang Qinghai with a smile, but did not speak.

  Wang Qinghai came out of the prison and returned to the Wang family. Telling Zhou Jia's meaning to Grandpa Wang, Grandpa Wang said with a mocking smile: "I just said that being an official for thousands of miles is only for money, and there is no one who doesn't love the silver, isn't it silver! He, you go and tell him, the old man invited him to drink in Zuixianlou."

Li Yu took Aunt Xue and the three Shuisheng brothers and sisters to Zhuangzi. The seedling fields have been sorted out. Ruyi led people to spread rice seeds, and after walking to the field ridges to catch some rice seeds, he let Jixiang gather everyone. stand up.

Li Yu said to them: "The farm will be your home in the future, and the farm will cover your room and board. Adults have two hundred wen monthly money. If you are sick, you will get a doctor. Retirement. Also, I will let Jixiang steward teach you to memorize the rules of Zhuangzi. Everyone, remember that anyone who cheats, cheats, gambles and fights will be kicked out of Zhuangzi once they are found or reported and verified more than three times. Zhuangli will ask someone to teach you a craft, and he will ask a gentleman to teach you how to read, and when you are old, you will be released to find your own way, do you understand?"

   Everyone felt dizzy and dizzy after hearing this. They felt like they were dreaming. They only knew in unison: "I understand."
