After breakfast, Lei Tia went to his door to arrange for the ceremony. Today was the 8th of September in the Cloud Continent's Gregorian calendar, and the 15th of August in the Grand Xia Dynasty was the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Mid-Autumn Festival was one of the most important festivals in the Grand Xia Dynasty, so not only did the Qin Mian Family have to give festivals to the servants, it also had to give festivals to the employees of the Processing Factory. The servants each gave out a reward of fifty pieces of meat and five pounds of meat. Autumn is the harvest season, this time will be very busy, it is necessary to improve the treatment of domestic servants. The employees would each be given a catty of meat. According to their usual performance, they would receive varying amounts of money. The less the meat, the less the meat, and the more, the more the meat.
Lei Tia held a book in his hands, read out a person's name and his due rewards. Uncle Fu counted the copper coins and put them into the small purse. Lei Qinle and Lei Qinzhong were in charge of cutting and weighing the meat.
At the side, Uncle Quan was helping the Uncle Fu. His uncle and aunt were all sincere people to begin with. The matter of Qin Mian allowing Miao Miao to learn how to read from others in the Leisurely Dwelling House school made them even more grateful and loyal to Qin Mian and his parents.
There were a lot of people in the courtyard, but it was extremely quiet. The only sounds that could be heard were Lei Tia's voice, the sound of the copper coin, and the sound of him chopping meat. No one dared to mess around in front of Lei Tia, as everything was done in an orderly ma
er.
Revealing yourself properly in front of the servants was a good opportunity to increase the loyalty of the servants towards the boss. It was also a warning to the people below not to act based on their master's and Qi. That was why Qin Mian got Lei Tia to personally arrange the ceremony.
At night, Qin Mian and Lei Tia had something big to do. At this time, Qin Mian was in the kitchen preparing dry rations. He had made thirty of each kind of meat scones, scallion pancakes, Quicksand Pancakes, and Steamed Bun Soup with fork in hand. He had even cooked a light and light pot of soup and placed it in his space.
A little bit of Bai's front paws were resting on the stove as he watched with great interest. It could not eat any of this food and did not know what it was looking at.
When the little white dot landed on the ground, its back was as tall as Qin Mian's waist, and its body was almost twice the height of an ordinary adult wolf. The village elders all secretly said that this wolf was not an ordinary wolf, but a wolf king. There was a period of time when the villagers did not dare to go near the Leisurely Dwelling House. The villagers who worked at the Processing Factory did not even dare to make a sound when they walked.
After Qin Mian finished, he washed his hands and dried the water in his hands. He brought a cup of hot tea to the living room and asked, "Tia, are you done?"
He placed the teacup next to Lei Tia's mouth.
Lei Tia lowered his head and took a sip, "Very soon."
Qin Mian sat at the side. After he was done with his work, he said to Uncle Fu, "Uncle Fu, First Young Master and I are going on a long trip. We will return in about three or five days. I'll leave the family matters to you. The rice, soybeans, sweet potatoes and peanuts should be received soon. Uncle Fu, make the arrangements as soon as possible.
"Yes, Young Master is at ease."
After the servants left, Qin Mian and Lei Tia cleaned up and prepared to leave.
Lei Qinzhong hurriedly returned, "Reporting to the young master and Young Master, the old man is here."
Lei Daqiang? Qin Mian raised his eyebrows. Ever since Madam Wei became pregnant, Lei Daqiang had focused all of his attention and attention on her, so how was he supposed to come over today?
Lei Tia indicated for Lei Qinzhong to leave.
Since Lei Daqiang had arrived, the servants of the Leisurely Dwelling House naturally could not block him outside the door. Lei Qinzhong came to report first. After a while, Lei Qinle walked over with Lei Daqiang.
Lei Daqiang strode forward slowly along the cobblestone path, his eyes looking all around, unable to contain the jealousy and anger in his heart. This was his son's Tian Residence, and he could only hate him for not being able to get a single bit of light from it. That brat Lei Tia was unfilial, if he had any gains from the garden, he would send more over to the house. Thinking about the reason he came today, he temporarily put aside these thoughts, and smiled amiably at Qin Mian and Lei Tia.
"The old man is here." Qin Mian was neither hot nor cold.
Lei Tia glanced at Lei Daqiang indifferently, and without even getting up, he picked up the bow that was placed at the side and carefully wiped it.
"Boss, boss's wife, you two are home. Isn't this the Mid-Autumn Festival? Let me tell you guys that we'll have di
er together tonight. " Lei Daqiang sat down on the soft sofa and frowned as he glanced at Lei Qinle, "I have no eyes. Why aren't you pouring the tea? "
Lei Qinle lowered his head and hands, as if he did not hear anything.
Qin Mian secretly snorted. He was putting on airs and coming to someone else's house.
"Lei Qinle, aren't we digging for peanuts today? What are you still standing there for? "
Lei Qinle fearfully said: "Please forgive this Young Master. This humble one did not hear your instructions just now, so I do not dare to act rashly. This humble one will take his leave now. "
With that, he quickly left and soon disappeared into the dense forest.
Lei Daqiang's face grew long.
Qin Mian said apologetically: "Old Master, you saw it too, we are packing our things. We are going on a long journey, and I'm afraid we can't spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you. I wish the old man a happy Mid-Autumn Festival! "
"Do you really think you can take charge?" Lei Daqiang glared at him in displeasure, then looked at Lei Tia with an unquestionable tone. "Lei Tia, have di
er with your wife tonight.
"No, my wife's meaning is my meaning." Lei Tia did not even raise his head.
Lei Daqiang frowned, and started to act according to his father, "Boss, if not for father's words, you can't be beaten by a little bastard who doesn't even know where ??"
Before he could say anything, he was met with a pair of ice-cold eyes. In an instant, he felt a chill down his spine and his legs trembled, causing him to break out in a cold sweat. Lei Tia's eyes were like two cold blades, as though she could shoot out and stab him twice at any time.
The aura of an elder instantly dissipated. He practically did not dare to look Lei Tia in the eye, and muttered: "You ??"
"You can go now." Lei Tia said coldly.
Lei Daqiang mustered up his courage and slapped on the table, shouting: "You dare speak to your father in such a tone?"
Lei Tia stood up, he was a head taller than him, and looked down at him with an indifferent gaze, "Why would I not dare? From the day I was forced to run away from home by you and Madam Du, I have never been your son again. But do I have to be clearer? "
"You ??" Lei Daqiang's face was filled with panic and disbelief. He sincerely wanted to use this Mid-Autumn Festival opportunity to save his eldest son. Why was he so cold-blooded and ungrateful? He suddenly remembered that Lei Tia had not called him "Father" for a long time.
Qin Mian felt that the injury in his eyes was extremely ridiculous. If Lei Daqiang really wanted to save his, why would he drag it until now? His sincerity was too cheap.
Lei Daqiang stood up, sighed, and reached out his hand to pat Lei Tia's shoulder, "Boss, you must believe that Father still cares about you ??"
Lei Tia avoided his hand, but the disgust in his eyes made Lei Daqiang stiffen.
Qin Mian could no longer hold back and asked. Lei Tia held onto his shoulder, shook his head slightly, and looked at Lei Daqiang. "I believe you."
Before Lei Daqiang could reveal his joy, he continued: "I care about you too, so I found a wife for you. Are you satisfied? "
Lei Daqiang was dumbstruck, and only digested the news after a long while. Was the Madam Wei found for him by Lei Tia? Why? He looked at Lei Tia, but Lei Tia's face was expressionless, his distant gaze looked like he was looking at a stranger, and when he looked at Qin Mian again, the sarcastic smile on his face was extremely glaring.
Lei Daqiang's face was red and hot. He turned around in a sorry state and fled.
Qin Mian looked at him coldly as he walked further and further away, tightly holding Lei Tia's hand.
In the past, when the twelve-year-old Lei Tia left the Flowing Water Town with a silver coin given by his uncle Deng Xiao, he didn't know where he should go and decided to head north. After being mistreated by the Madam Du for a long time, Lei Tia grew shrewd and swapped a tael of silver for two pieces of silver and two hundred copper coins. Who knew that his luck would be so bad that he would end up being targeted? Before he even walked too far, he was stopped by a few rascals. At that time, Lei Tia was only twelve years old and he looked thin and weak. How could he be a match for the four adults? In the end, Lei Tia did nothing but beg and beg all the way to do odd jobs for others so he wouldn't starve to death. The first employer that Lei Tia met was a kind peasant woman, but her husband was emotionally twisted. The old wounds on Lei Tia's body had not recovered yet, but new injuries had been added.
If it wasn't for Lei Daqiang's indulgence of the Madam Du and his neglect of Lei Tia, how could Lei Tia have suffered so miserably back then? As long as he thought about the suffering Lei Tia had endured back then, he was unable to contain his hatred toward Lei Daqiang and the Madam Du. If not for giving, Lei Xianglee, Lei Xiangzhi and Lei Chuntao face, he would have thought of countless ways to torture Lei Daqiang and the Madam Du. It was just a small matter to find him an extra wife.
"Wife?"
Warm palms covered his face, Qin Mian regained his senses and smiled at Lei Tia in relief, "I'm fine. Tia, would it be okay to tell Lei Daqiang about that? Would he tell Madam Wei and the Madam Du? The Madam Wei is very smart, she might be able to guess the reason behind our actions back then, will she join hands with the Madam Du to deal with us? As for the Madam Du, once she knows about it, she will definitely hate us to the bones. "
Lei Tia shook his head, "Lei Daqiang has a lot of face, I won't say it."
Qin Mian thought for a moment and understood. Lei Daqiang cared a lot about the Madam Wei, and informing the Madam Wei of this matter meant that he had to admit that he was tricked by his own son. Therefore, Lei Daqiang would not inform Madam Wei about this. Lei Daqiang would also not inform Madam Du about this. Madam Du had a huge mouth, if she knew about anything, it would mean that her entire family and the entire village would know about it. At that time, it would only lead to more people laughing at the old mansion. Lei Daqiang still had to consider Lei Xiangzhi. In October, Lei Xiangzhi was going to participate in the Academy's examination.
Qin Mian leaned on Lei Tia and pondered for a while longer. What if Lei Daqiang told this matter to Madam Du and his family, how should he and Lei Tia deal with it?
After coming up with a plan, his expression turned to one of relief as he stood up. "Forget about them, let's go."
