Gu Zhuang
Mrs. Jiang is working on her chickens, ducks and geese on the farm.
Even if the sky was about to collapse, Jiang's chickens and ducks were still very important in her heart, and the weight was not less than the major events in those villages.
Gu Laoshi squatted on the wheat field outside the village ancestral hall, and was with the villagers and tribesmen who were squatting, sitting, or standing.
"This cannot be sold. There is no reason to sell the ancestral grave. It is not so easy to move the grave. It's okay if we have people in our family. What should we do with the cemeteries of many lonely people? Who is willing to move the graves for them? Besides, without filial sons and grandchildren, how can we move the graves at will? What if the Feng Shui of our village is damaged, what can we do?"
A clan old man in his thirties, but not his seniority, frowned and sighed, his face full of sorrow.
Everyone else fell silent.
Who doesn't know this?
But the other party really can't afford to offend him.
Three months ago, a noble man came to Dali Village with the prefect himself.
This noble man was a great eunuch who had served in the palace. With His Majesty's approval, he left the palace and retired and returned home. Don't look down on him as an eunuch. He was a person who had served by the emperor. When he left the palace, he brought a large amount of gold and silver. The emperor also personally rewarded a lot of things, and all of them had the marks from the palace.
The prefect nodded and bowed in front of others, without any confidence.
In fact, the old eunuch chose Li's village to settle down, build a house and live in peace, and apart from seeing something novel, there is a gossip that can be said. It has nothing to do with them being poor.
For Gu Zhuang, there is no need to care about it.
Recently, Guzhuang has developed much better than Dali Village. The eggs produced after the farm is completed, duck eggs, etc., can almost guarantee that villagers can buy them at extremely low prices.
Many families in the village have learned to eat whole eggs with the children. Even the elderly and women who don’t work hard can eat half of the meal, and life is very beautiful.
The meat is cheaper than before.
Moreover, most villagers in Guzhuang are making more and more money. If they hadn’t known how to be frugal from the bottom of their hearts, with everyone’s current wealth, not to mention eating one egg, it wouldn’t be a bit of a pity if they had eaten three or five.
When the common people look at the nobles coming from the next village, they just look at the new things.
Who would have thought that when this unlucky nobleman came, he would not harm Lijia Village or Guzhuang?
The eunuch didn't know what he thought, and he had to pay attention to the feng shui of the Gu family's ancestral tomb. He wanted to buy all the hills of the ancestral tombs for himself to build a large tomb.
Gu Laoshi was angry and murmured in a low voice: "If you do such a bad thing, you won't be afraid of knocking on the door in the middle of the night!"
Of course, most of the people in Guzhuang were not happy. They asked County Magistrate Wang to help plead with him. They also wanted to try their best to refuse as politely as possible. They did not offend others very much, but they could not let their ancestors suffer grievances.
The Guzhuang people lived here for decades and hundreds of years, and their ancestors were buried here for generations. The so-called homeland is hard to leave, and living people are reluctant to leave their homeland unless they have no choice but to leave their homeland, let alone the ancestors who have been buried in peace?
Especially recently, Guzhuang had just repaired its ancestral tomb, and everyone gritted their teeth and paid out a lot of money. They thought that life would be better and they could not let their ancestors live in dilapidated houses.
Now people are going to buy their ancestral tomb without saying a word, which means they have a better temper now. In the past, the stunned boys have already picked up bricks and beaten them up.
Guzhuang is now confident. Relying on "Gu Ji", every household, who is not the lazy family, has some wealth, and many families send their children to private schools.
The old scholar in the village just collected the shrews that the children took, which was enough for him to eat, wear and chew alone.
It was Wang Magistrate Wang who came forward to say that the young and old men in Guzhuang didn't take this matter too much at the beginning. Don't worry about the kind of noble people, if they don't want to sell them, they can't force them to snatch them.
The eunuch Zhou who arrived in Lijia Village was quite kind. He heard that Magistrate Wang said that the family’s ancestral tomb would not be sold. After a few words, he tried to get the villagers of Guzhuang unmoved, and he just sighed with regret and did not make much embarrassed for everyone.
Seeing that he was so reasonable, the villagers were really relieved and cheered themselves up. When they heard that he was a noble man from the palace, everyone could not help but feel guilty and short of anger.
Just when everyone thought everything was safe, something happened.
A few days later, Zhao Da, a guard on the farm, got off night shift at night. When he ran to visit his uncle's grave, he found a stranger secretly in their ancestral grave in Guzhuang, not knowing what he was doing. However, seeing those people holding tung oil and the like, the smell on their bodies was not right. Zhao Da was serious about studying on the farm. Those who had studied books focused on learning about safety and vigilance. He checked the surroundings as soon as possible. Seeing that he had no accomplices, he immediately went up and twisted the person and tied them up and took them back to the village.
If it were the past, when I met such a traitorous person, the village would just kill him. Now, Magistrate Wang and others are still not far outside Gu Village, so they will be sent to the government for disposal.
However, he did not expect that the person died in just two days after being sent to the government. The prefect came to ask about the case in person, and finally Zhao Dading became a murderer and was arrested in prison.
It is said that after investigation, the person who went to their ancestral grave did not cause damage, but went to collect herbs.
Guzhuang villagers: "..."
What medicinal materials can they have in their ancestral tombs?
There were weeds in the past, but now even the weeds have been cleaned up.
Besides, who went to collect herbs in the middle of the night?
But no matter how outrageous it is, there are some evidences, and there are any physical evidence. It is said that he has a lot of tools to collect herbs.
Zhao Da was in trouble all of a sudden.
His affairs were not over yet, and a peddler from Guzhuang was caught when he went to sell meat sauce, and he insisted that he was molested by his wife.
There is also a villager who married a daughter from another place. Something happened suddenly. She was either slandered and had an affair with others. Or she was in trouble at home, and she was in a mess.
All these messy things came together and a lot of them emerged. No one was fool. After careful consideration, the villagers found that the people who seemed to have an accident were those who were determined to sell the hills of the ancestral tombs.
The firmer you are, the bigger the things happen.
Everyone is a commoner, how can he withstand such troubles?
Many people were scared. Many people already felt that their arms could not twist their thighs. They compromised, but they did not dig a grave directly, and they seemed to be very lawful.
Is it easy to just move the grave?
If they find the Feng Shui treasure land, they will naturally have nothing to say if they want to move their ancestors tombs, but this forces people to alarm their ancestors' peace. Only those who have experienced it know how it feels.
