Sister Nongmen Have Space

Chapter 39 Can't Return

It was said that on the day when the imperial envoy arrived at the Yongning Mansion, it rained suddenly after a sunny day, and rained heavily for three days and three nights.

The dry ground was moistened, and the dead people cheered and shouted, as if they had finally seen the light of day, they all said that this was a fortune coming down from the sky, and declared that the new emperor of the world was contemporary. Mingjun, and he is blessed by heaven.

Gu Yundong was still in the Xuanhe Mansion, and he still did not know the tumultuous news spread there. Even if he knows, he doesn't care.

He stood in front of the bulletin board at the city gate, frowning slightly as he looked at the announcement that had just been posted.

This announcement is about the victims who fled the famine. Yongning House already had food and silver for disaster relief. The chaos had calmed down and order was slowly restored. Naturally, these people also wanted to return.

As long as those who return, the government office will give a certain amount of tolls, and it will be released for three years.

Of course, it is okay not to return, the refugees are resettled on the spot, attached to the register, and re-registered by the yamen. There are no conditions for a three-year exemption, and there is no money to take it.

And the place of placement also depends on your luck, basically not in an overly prosperous and wealthy city, or even in a slightly better village. There is no division of land, and at most two acres of vacant land will be given to you for self-reclaiming.

Most people will choose to go back, and the idea of a leaf falling back to its roots is firmly planted in everyone's mind. If you have the money, you can be exempt from taxes for three years, and you will remain a familiar relative and friend when you return to your hometown.

Not to mention that many people in cities large and small had their industrial homes in Yongning Mansion, so giving up like this would be a huge loss.

But this, to Gu Yundong, did not have much of a temptation.

After reading the announcement, she returned to Cousin Ke's house with a vegetable basket.

Cousin Ke was sitting in the yard, holding a needle and thread and making shoes for two young children. It was only then that she realized that this extremely good at cooking girl did not know how to make clothes and shoes, while Madam Yang knew how to do it, but it did not look good.

Cousin Ke hurt the two children and asked Gu Yundong to buy a washcloth and sew it himself.

Hearing the door open, Cousin Ke lifted his head and glanced at him, "Why did you come back so late today?"

"A new notice has been posted at the city gate. I saw it."

"What did you say above?"

Gu Yundong closed the courtyard door, placed the vegetable basket on the stone mill, and then repeated the contents of the notice.

Aunt Ke's hand stopped, then continued sewing as if nothing had happened.

Yang Shi and Gu Yunke still could not understand him in a daze, but Gu Yunshu understood, and immediately hugged his waist in delight, "Can we go home? Is there food at home?"

Gu Yundong looked at the little man whose eyes were shining, and asked, "Do you want to go back?"

Gu Yunshu was stunned for a moment, then blinked his eyes in bewilderment, "Big sister, don't you want to go home?"

Where would you go if you didn't come back? This is Cousin Ke's house, not his. You can't stay in someone else's house forever, and the rent is very expensive.

Gu Yundong patted his head, "Go back to that house, there are grandparents, two uncles and three uncles, we may have to serve them forever, she said, and we'll never be able to eat the food we ate two days ago."

Gu Yunshu suddenly recalled the past, and his expression changed.

Aunt Ke glanced at Gu Yundong, scaring the child, shameless.

Gu Yundong pretended not to see it, and continued to bewitch, "In addition, do you still remember why we can't separate our families?"
