Xiang Laoer rolled his eyes, put his son on the cart, and pushed the cart inside. Looking at this posture, it seemed that he was abandoning his wife and daughter, and took his son away.

The second daughter-in-law quit. She grabbed Xiang's second daughter-in-law's sleeves, knelt on the ground and begged: "Ms. sir, even if you don't want these three girls, you shouldn't abandon me. Your money is worth the lives of the four girls."

In exchange for it."

Xiang Laoer's face turned red with embarrassment at his wife's words. When he saw the disdainful looks from the people around him, he couldn't help but feel angry. He raised his leg and kicked his wife in the heart, knocking her to the ground.

Xiangcai had known for a long time that this father would not take the three sisters into the city. Who would have thought that he would not even want his own woman? She glanced at her two sisters and winked.

The second daughter, Xianghua, and the third daughter, Xiangdou, saw their sister winking and rushed towards the cart. The three of them had already agreed that each of them would grab something and then run away.

Xianglaoer didn't expect that in the gap between him and his wife, the rice, water, and the only piece of bacon on the cart would be snatched away by his three daughters.

He wanted to chase after him, but the dead woman on the ground still grabbed him and wouldn't let him go. What made him even more worried was that the younger son on the cart was severely slapped by the eldest daughter and was crying heartbrokenly.

.

It turned out that the younger son saw the eldest sister and the others coming to grab something, so he hugged the bacon and refused to let go. The eldest sister slapped him in the face and snatched the bacon again, which made him cry.

The yamen guard who was guarding the edge of the rock became impatient and was about to curse when Boss Xiang rushed up with his wife and three daughters. After giving him twenty-five taels of silver and household registration, he was allowed to enter the passage to the provincial capital.

Then people with money and household registration passed quickly one by one. Xianglaoer finally got rid of his wife's pull and escaped into the passage. He took a long breath and finally got rid of those losers.

"Dad, my eldest sister and the others have taken away all the food and drink we have to eat," the younger son Xiangmi said with a bitter look on his face, with deep fingerprints still on his cheeks.

"Don't be afraid. Daddy still has money. I have gone to the provincial capital to buy it for you." Xiang Laoer gritted his teeth and regretted not hiding the things on his body.

When the villagers of Xiangzhang Village saw all three Xiang brothers entering the passage, they couldn't help but become anxious. Those who had money followed naturally, while those who didn't had money jumped behind and cursed.

They thought of Mr. Xiang again. If Mr. Xiang were here, he would definitely take them into the city with him. But Mr. Xiang was driven away by Xiang Laosan, and his whereabouts are still unknown.

"Hey, it would be great if the old man of the Xiang family was here. We should have chosen the old man of the Xiang family as our chief."

"What's the use of talking about it now? You'd better find a way to get money, otherwise you'll starve to death."

There was a sound of crying from the front. It turned out that the hungry people who had no household registration or money tried to force their way in, but they were beaten mercilessly by the government officials. The sound of the whip penetrating into the flesh made people's hair stand on end, and they quickly moved back.

hide.

Xiang Laosan and Lao Li Chang ran to the city gate with all their strength. Sure enough, the city gate was wide open. He was about to go in happily, but was stopped.

"Household Registration"

Xiang Laosan quickly took out the household registration and handed it over. The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate carefully looked at the household registration. Well, they came from Xiangzhang Village. That was the place where the Sixth Prince disappeared.

"Have you ever seen this person?"

The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate took a portrait and showed it to Xiang Laosan. When Xiang Laosan took a look, he saw in the portrait a boy wearing a purple gold robe and a purple gold crown, with a face like a full moon and eyes like stars.

It seems that this face has been seen before, but such elegant and luxurious clothes have never been seen before. Xiang Laosan shook his head. Just looking at the clothes, the person in the portrait must be a royal family. How could they meet such a person?

.

The officers and soldiers carefully looked at the facial expressions of Xiang Laosan and others. Seeing that they were all confused, they put away the portraits, returned the household registration to Xiang Laosan and said: "It costs five taels of silver per person to enter the city."

Xiang Laosan was shocked and quickly defended: "Master, you just came over there, we have already given you twenty-five taels of silver."

"That way is over there, and this way is over here. If you don't give me anything, go away." The officers and soldiers were impatient. The government officials were looking after them over there, but the government soldiers were looking after them here. Who would do anything without money?

Xiaoshu took out a letter of recommendation from his sleeve pocket and said clearly: "Master, I am a student going to the provincial capital to take the exam for scholar. I have a letter of recommendation from Qingshan Academy. Please help me."

The officers and soldiers were stunned. The boy who was taking the scholar examination rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "It turns out that there are still scholars here, but the boys are a bit weak. I am easy to talk to you today, so I will spare you the money to enter the city."

Xiang Laosan gritted his teeth, took out twenty taels of silver from his pocket, handed it to the officers and soldiers, and walked toward the city without saying a word. In the blink of an eye, their family of five had already spent forty-five taels of silver.

"San'er, your mother and I still have fifty taels of silver here. Let's find a place to live first, and then find a place to take the scholar examination. We must let Shu'er concentrate on studying." said the eldest daughter-in-law of the old man.

When Xiang Laosan heard this, his nervousness immediately relaxed, and he was extremely glad that he took his parents with him, otherwise he would really have no money to live.

Xiang Lao Er caught up with Xiang Lao San, but stopped outside the city. Previously, he had broken Lao San's heart in order to seize the position of head of the village. He also used the death of the fourth daughter to deceive the Xiang family's money and broke the hearts of the old couple.

.

Now that he has abandoned his wife and daughter and comes here, no one will take another look at him, even if the person sitting on the cart is their second grandson.

Xiang Lao Er still had a few taels of silver in his pocket, and it was absolutely impossible to enter the city. When he saw Xiang Lao Er standing in a daze at the gate of the city, he rolled his eyes and walked up.

Originally, Boss Xiang was still thinking about entering the city. Over the years, he had hidden nearly fifty taels of silver. He just spent twenty-five taels, and now he still has twenty-five taels left.

Seeing Xiang Lao'er walking towards him, he quickly took out his last twenty-five taels of silver and household registration, and ran into the city as if running away. Xiang Lao'er was furious and didn't dare to make trouble at the city gate, so he could only hate it.

leave.

The provincial capital is indeed much better than the provincial capital. Although it is also short of water and food, the governor is obviously smarter than the prefect. He knows how to appease the people.

The old man in the village was mature enough, so he targeted an officer and soldier and took out two taels of silver and sent it to him. He just asked them to introduce him to a better place to live. There were children in the family who wanted to take the scholar examination. Only these officers and soldiers knew where it was suitable for them to live.

The officers and soldiers' eyes lit up when they saw the silver. It happened that his aunt had a yard to rent out. The silver was not worth much now, so he could exchange for some rice by renting out the yard.
