Uncle Fu saw Madam Qian and Madame Li off and stood outside the door hesitantly. He had an expression that said he had something to say, but it was hard to put into words.
Lei Tia frowned, “Steward Fu, what’s the matter?”
Qin Mian looked over curiously.
Uncle Fu hurriedly bowed his head in apology, “Please forgive me, sir. During this period of time, the village had some gossip ?? the workers who were hired by the workshop were all from the village, but they didn’t invite your brothers ?? The wife of the second young master is a bit restless. The wife of the third young master seems to also have some complaints. ” No matter what, the lord and his brothers were blood-related brothers. As a servant, he spoke these words as if he was trying to provoke them, which was why he was so hesitant.
Qin Mian did not say a word. His thoughts still remained the same, as he did not want to be directly involved with any of Lei Xiangren’s, Lei Xiangyi’s, Lei Xianglee’s or Lei Xiangzhi’s business interests. If you really put them in the workshop, do you think of them as relatives or as workers? However, it was not their fault that the villagers were gossiping. In their opinion, relatives were more reliable than outsiders, and their own brothers and sisters were unable to reason with them.
“Don’t the villagers know about the secret method to burn charcoal?” Lei Tia asked.
Uncle Fu said: “As soon as I heard those idle rumors, I immediately got people to release the news that I had given them the secret recipe for burning charcoal.”
Lei Tia said: “You find a chance to talk to Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee. If they want to start a small business, we can lend them some money. No need to say anything u
ecessary. ”
Qin Mian listened and nodded to himself, this was a good idea.
Uncle Fu also understood, “This lowly one will go now.”
After Uncle Fu left, Qin Mian gave Lei Tia a praising look.
Lei Tia took the opportunity and hugged his waist. He would not allow anything that could embarrass his wife to exist.
Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee lived next to each other. The brothers were there, when they saw Uncle Fu, they immediately went to welcome them.
“Steward Fu, is there something big brother and big sister-in-law would like to tell us?” Lei Xianglee asked.
Uncle Fu laughed: “Third Young Master, Fourth Young Master, I have asked this one to come and ask you if you have any plans in the future. If you want to start a small business, our grandpa says that we can lend you two young masters some money. ”
Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee understood when they heard it. Lei Tia and Qin Mian would rather lend them money to do business rather than let them meddle in the affairs of Processing Factory. The two of them must be feeling a little uncomfortable. They felt that in the hearts of their big brother and sister-in-law, they couldn’t be compared to others, but after thinking about it again, they could understand what Lei Tia and his wife was doing. If even one’s teeth bit into one’s tongue, how could a person compare to another? If a brother didn’t involve some benefits, then the friendship would last even longer. Moreover, as a person, one must know how to be kind and content. Haven’t Qin Mian and Lei Tia taken good care of them for a long time?
Thinking about this, the two brothers felt relieved. They told Uncle Fu that they had to think about it carefully, if they decided to borrow money, they would pay a visit to Leisurely Dwelling House personally.
As for Lei Xiangren, the three brothers ignored him as if nothing had happened.
“…”
Qin Mian followed his plan and started to expand his family’s business. Because the culinary competition was going to start in a month’s time, he only started with the beverages. He added various types of pastries to the beverages, some were sweet, some were salty, and some were honey and dates, osmanthus cake, red bean cake, cake-roll, cake, egg tart, pudding, crackers, and so on. Many different varieties of fruits could be used to make different flavors. In particular, cakes and biscuits can be made into different shapes, such as stars, moons, animals, flowers, etc. Once the new product was released, “One Line Heaven” once again caused a sensation in the entire Zhaoyang County.
Yuan Yuan, Ming Dong and Lei Tia would always be the first to enjoy the new breed, and Yuan Yuan was always full of happiness everyday.
Qin Mian and Lei Tia would no longer keep them at home. As long as they completed their daily study tasks, they would be either Qin Mian, Lei Tia or the servants of the family, who would bring them out to play with other little friends in the village.
Yuan Yuan and Man were both cute and smarter than their peers. In the group of little friends, they were quite popular.
Qin Mian designed a cute waist purse for the two children, allowing them to make two for each color. On the waist purse, there were embroidered different animals. Every time the two little fellows went out to play, they would put on their waists which were filled with all kinds of strange snacks. The two little fellows were generous and would often share it with their other friends.
A few days later, the good news that Lei Xiangzhi and Huo Sirui had hit the top two and probed the flowers respectively spread through his Qingshan Village like wind. The officials who reported the good news from the capital personally escorted the two back to the Qingshan Village.
Lei Xiangzhi was selected by the emperor as the official seventh grade in the Han Lin Yuan School, and was appointed within two months. Huo Sirui was assigned as the County Magistrate of Chong En County, the seventh grade, was appointed within three months. On the surface, it seemed that Lei Xiangzhi’s official position was not as good as Huo Sirui’s, but Lei Xiangzhi had entered the job in the capital, so relatively speaking, there were more opportunities for him to be promoted to become a public official, and it was more convenient for him to develop his relationships with others than with Huo Sirui.
Incidentally, the top scholar was Zhao Xian. As expected, the emperor loved him very much. He directly bestowed him the title of an attendant in the fifth rank Han Lin Courtyard.
County Magistrate s, county officials, master books, and others all personally came to the Qingshan Village to congratulate Lei Xiangzhi. Seventy percent of the big families in the county had sent gifts.
His son and son-in-law both had great prospects, Madam Du and Lei Daqiang were in the limelight at the moment. The number of people in the village who were not jealous of this couple could be counted with one hand. The villagers all secretly ridiculed them, as the most correct thing to do for Madam Du and Lei Daqiang in this life was to have a pair of twins.
Lei Xiangren and Mrs Zhao regretted that they moved back to the Old Residence shamelessly after splitting the 100 taels of silver. It was a good name for them to cultivate their relationship with the Fifth Brother before he took over the position. He didn’t know what Lei Xiangzhi had told them, but on the morning of the second day, the couple once again moved back dejectedly.
The house had been bustling with guests for three whole days, but Qin Mian and Lei Tia had only sent people to deliver their congratulatory gifts and did not show up.
Two days later, Lei Xiangzhi and his wife, who were supposed to be together with Huo Sirui and his wife, came to the Leisurely Dwelling House and thanked them seriously. Huo Sirui returned the original fifty silver and gave Qin Mian, Lei Tia, Yuan Yuan and a full set of gifts. Lei Xiangzhi was the same.
Qin Mian asked about the poisoning case with concern. It turned out that it was really done by the people from the gambling den, the officials were very reasonable and paid Lei Xiangzhi and the others 50 silver each.
Chong En County was more than a month’s drive away from Zhaoyang County, in two days, Huo Sirui and Lei Chuntao would depart. President Huo and Madam Huo were still young now, and were able to take good care of themselves. Furthermore, they both wanted to carry their grandson and were very supportive of Lei Chuntao following Huo Sirui to take over the position.
Lei Xiangzhi also wanted to leave for the capital in a few days. The Hanlin Courtyard originally had rooms for small officials to live in, but they were all uniform and weren’t that big, so they were more suitable for single people. Since Madam Du and Lei Daqiang had long wanted to enjoy life with their youngest son, they had decided to go to the capital together. Since Lei Daqiang had gone, the Madam Wei was naturally unwilling to stay alone. Therefore, Lei Xiangzhi wanted to go to the capital early.
Lei Xiangzhi and his wife ate lunch with and his wife at the Qin Mian Family. After sitting for a while, they said their goodbyes.
Lei Tia sent them out.
Lei Xiangzhi intentionally fell a few steps behind the other three, and said to him in a low voice: “Big bro, this time in the capital, Mom and Dad want to buy a house in the capital, in the future, we’ll settle down here. Actually, before I came back, I had already asked Master Yuan to help me rent a small house. Entering the capital was just the begi
ing, so they all thought things were too simple. I didn’t want to get used to them, so I lied and said I only had enough money to rent a house. I’m afraid that since they have come to find you and Eldest Sister, I will have to trouble you for a few more days to forgive your parents. ” Actually, Lei Xiangzhi didn’t have the face to tell them the truth. When he told Lei Daqiang and Madam Du that he had no money on him, they told him to borrow it from Lei Tia and Qin Mian at the time. That was why he was worried that Lei Daqiang and the Madam Du would come knocking on his door.
Lei Tia nodded lightly.
Sure enough, as Lei Xiangzhi had expected, in the afternoon, Lei Daqiang and Madam Du ran over to the Leisurely Dwelling House. The doorman did not let them in. The couple probably thought that they were about to leave the Qingshan Village, so they weren’t afraid of losing face and decided to blow the matter. After calling out to Lei Tia and Qin Mian for a long time without getting a response, Madam Du actually started splashing outside the door, and Lei Daqiang went on to point at Lei Tia every single word that was said to make him unfilial.
Qin Mian taught the talkative Lei Qinle how to retort every single one of Lei Daqiang’s words. Lei Qinle was smart, cursing without vulgarities, causing Lei Daqiang and Madam Du to be so angry that they fell flat on their faces, and ran away in a sorry state. The two of them had completely lost their reputations in Qingshan Village.
Qin Mian pitied Lei Xiangzhi very much, and hoped that he wouldn’t be implicated by the Madam Du and Lei Daqiang in the future.
Two days later, Huo Sirui and his family left the Zhaoyang County, and went to Chong En County to take up their duties. Qin Mian and Lei Tia went to send them off.
Two days later, the old mansion was sold and everything that needed to be collected was collected. Finally, there was only a single house and a few acres of land left.
Before leaving, Lei Xiangzhi and Madame Li made another trip to the Qin Mian Family, saying that they would invite them to play in the capital after everything was settled.
Lei Xiangzhi entrusted the old dwelling to Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee to take care of it, and the fields were rented to them for cultivation. They brought the Li Clan, Insect Insect, Lei Daqiang, Madam Du, Madam Wei, Qing Qing, Madam Du’s Xiao Cui and Madam Wei’s Xiao Xi to leave the Qingshan Village realm, heading towards the capital.
Qin Mian and Lei Tia didn’t even want to spare a glance at Madam Du and Lei Daqiang, and didn’t send them off.
Without Madam Du and Lei Daqiang, Qin Mian felt that the air in his Qingshan Village had become a little fresher. In the past, if he could avoid passing through the gates of the old residence, he definitely would not go through the gates of his old residence.
