Chapter 78: Frosted Cabbage
Yuanyuan put her little hands in her hands, turned her little head to the side, and puffed up her cheeks in anger.
Shang Wan looked at the little guy and said, "Don't you want to eat fish balls in the future?"
A naked threat.
Yuanyuan wrinkled her little nose, opened her little mouth, took the vegetable porridge in the spoon, and then... spit it out in a jet shape.
If Shang Wan hadn't turned the little guy quickly with quick eyes and hands, the food on the table would have been ruined by Yuanyuan.
For the first time in his life, he rebelled, and the little boy Yuanyuan paid a heavy price with a spanking.
"Daddy." Yuanyuan stretched out her little hand towards Lu Chengjing pitifully, "Mom, hit me!"
In fact, Shang Wan just lightly patted her butt twice, but the little girl felt aggrieved. She felt that the spanking by her mother was very painful, and she especially needed comfort from her father.
Shang Wan followed and looked over.
Lu Chengjing coughed lightly, and stood by his mother's side under Yuanyuan's expectant eyes.
Yuanyuan:! ! !
The little guy burst into tears with a cry of "Wow". He felt that his father did not love his mother and he was just a little cabbage beaten by frost.
Xiaohuan couldn't bear it and wanted to go over and coax him.
Shi Shi stopped her, "Look carefully, Qian Hao doesn't have a single tear."
Xiaohuan took a closer look, and sure enough, there was only thunder but no rain.
The corners of her mouth twitched, had this kid been so cum before?
Yuanyuan thought she had been crying for a long time, but no one came to comfort her.
The little guy covered his eyes and looked secretly through the gap between his little hands. He saw his mother, father, Aunt Xiaohuan and Uncle Shitou eating, talking and laughing.
eating! !
Have a meal! ! !
meal! ! ! !
Isn't she still her parents' favorite Zaizai? !
Yuanyuan was so shocked that she forgot to continue crying. She lay on the straw mat, sticking her butt out and sulking, peeking at her parents from time to time.
snort! Zaizai is angry!
Extremely angry!
No coaxing, no eating!
Unexpectedly, after being angry for a long time, no one paid attention to her.
Yuanyuan wrinkled her little face in grievance, grunted and crawled over, smacking her hands against Shang Wan's legs, where she couldn't move.
Shang Wan lowered his head and glanced at the little mushroom, and heard the little mushroom grunting, "Wrong."
It sounds really aggrieved.
"What's wrong?" Shang Wan picked him up and touched the little guy's head.
The round little finger pointed at himself, and then at the vegetable porridge in the small bowl, and said with a flat mouth: "Wrong."
"It is indeed wrong to waste food." Shang Wan nodded in agreement, then asked, "What else?"
Yuanyuan blinked, tilted her head and thought for a while, then shook her head to express that she didn't know.
"My dear, it's okay to be upset, and it's okay to lose your temper, but the prerequisite is that you have the confidence to lose your temper." Shang Wan nodded his round and white forehead, "As for you, you are young and have no confidence, but you are so good at flipping the table. The matter can only be waited for to be dealt with. "
Shang Wan pointed at himself, "If it was my mother who did what you did just now, not only would I not be punished, but I could also punish others in turn. It could even be said that this is the right thing to do. This is the confidence." Yuanyuan seemed to understand. If you don’t understand, countless question marks pop up in your little head.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, just remember it." Shang Wan gently patted her on the back and asked her to look at the other three people on the table, "We are your family, what are you doing when you are young now?" Everyone can pamper you, but outsiders will not pamper you."
Yuanyuan frowned, her smart little head trying hard to understand her mother's words.
Shang Wan took the handkerchief from Xiaohuan, wiped the little one's face and hands, and continued to feed her vegetable porridge.
Shitou asked in a low voice: "Sister, is it too early to teach Yuanyuan these things?"
Shang Wan still said the same thing, "If you know it earlier, you won't suffer a loss."
Because of the spiritual spring, Yuanyuan accidentally awakened as a superpower. Even in the last days, there were no superpowers who awakened at such a young age.
Shang Wan had no experience in raising babies and didn't know how to raise such a young person with powers. I can only think of what to teach, and what to teach when I encounter it. Anyway, the little guy has a good memory now, so he can just remember it in his head and think about it slowly.
Halfway through the meal, Shitou talked about land reclamation and asked Lu Chengjing, "Brother-in-law, do you need to register with the government to open up land?"
"Before you open up wasteland, you must first confirm that there is no owner of the wasteland. After you open up wasteland, you need to report it to the government and ask people from the government to measure the land and register it."
Shitou wondered: "Don't you need to pay taxes on the wasteland reclaimed by yourself? Why do you need to register it?"
"The wasteland reclaimed by the people spontaneously will not be taxed for the first five years. After five years, it will be taxed like ordinary land. The government's registration of wasteland can be used as a basis for tax collection. It can also effectively prevent the people from giving up farming for no reason after the wasteland is opened, causing the land to continue to be used. A desolate situation.”
Lu Chengjing explained warmly, "According to the laws of our dynasty, those who abandon farming for no reason after clearing up wasteland, causing the land to become barren, will be fined 20 taels of silver and 10 taels of silver if the government discovers it as a warning to others."
Shitou trembled, "If I open a wasteland and don't plant the land, I will be beaten and fined? What if I break my limbs and can't plant?"
Xiaohuan rolled her eyes at him speechlessly, "Can't you hope that you'll be better?"
"How can there be no eventuality in life?" Shitou insisted and asked clearly, "Brother-in-law, is there any way to avoid being beaten and not fined?"
Lu Chengjing said: "If the land belongs to you, you can transfer the land to others; if it is owned by the court, you can also hire people to farm it."
"As you just said, the wasteland you reclaimed can be reported to the government after you break your limbs, and the government will consider it at their discretion. If you are really unable to continue farming, you can sign a deed transfer. The government will provide a certain amount of compensation based on the condition of the land. .The land was taken over by the imperial court and leased to others for farming.”
Lu Chengjing added: "If we encounter military famine, famine, etc., and we really abandon the seeds, the government will not have time to spare and will not pursue them."
Shitou understands that when it comes to land reclamation, one has to do things according to one's ability. More is not always better. If you really encounter something, you can discuss it, and the government won't beat you to death with a stick.
Xiaohuan had a question, "If we don't report it to the government after opening up wasteland, can we secretly plant it?"
Shang Wan can answer this question without Lu Chengjing, "What do you do as a village chief?"
Xiaohuan really forgot about such a person.
Lu Chengjing said: "If someone in the village reclaims wasteland but conceals it and fails to report it, once the government finds out, the entire village's taxes will increase by 50% for three years."
The imperial court has been at war for many years, and taxes are already heavy. Let alone adding 50%, even adding 10% would be the same as directly forcing people to die.
Therefore, no one dares to take this risk, and even if they did, the villagers would not cover it up.
Shang Wan took a fish ball and said to the three of them: "Our family lacks strong labor and has no experience in farming. If you really want to farm, you can try to cultivate two acres of wasteland first. Then you can plant some fruits and vegetables, which will be convenient." We’ll eat it for ourselves. As for the rest, there’s no rush for now. We’ll do it step by step after the house is repaired.”
All three agreed.
Shang Wan secretly lamented that other people had more strength and labor. She glanced at Lu Chengjing and felt a little puzzled.
This guy drank the most spiritual spring water. Except for the injuries on his body gradually healing, why didn't he see any changes at all?
