BXBX NOVEL Chapter 117 Wife Mighty
Four days later, two people and a wolf appeared in everyone\'s line of sight.
Outside the village, the golden rice was even more dazzling in the sunlight. The old farmers stroked their rice spikes as a satisfied smile appeared on their wrinkled faces.
When the two of them purposely went around to their own rice fields, Uncle Fu and four servants were working hard to harvest the rice. Sweat trickled down their chins, and from time to time, they would wipe the rice with a handkerchief that was hanging around their necks.
"Eldest Young Master, Young Master, you two are back!"
Lei Tia waved to stop them from bowing and got off his horse. He walked to the side of the rice field and cut off a spike to take a look.
"Tia, how\'s the rice this year?" Qin Mian walked to his side and asked.
They did not dare to be too different from others in terms of rice fields, as their family\'s rice fields did not use Spirit Spring Water. But before they planted the seedlings, they had the servants farm the paddy fields. Therefore, both of them were very concerned about the harvest of the rice fields.
Lei Tia nodded, "That\'s right, the granules are much richer than the others."
"First Young Master, just now, Precinct Head passed by and praised us a little. This year, our rice is one of the best in the village."
The villagers did not understand when Qin Mian had people pick out farm manure from the rice fields. Because careful villagers had previously found that vegetables that inadvertently spilled feces grew better than other vegetables, they wondered if feces could be fattened. Bold villagers tried the whole vegetable patch, and all the vegetables died. Since then, no one dared to lightly try again. Farmers\' fats naturally have the effect of fattening fields, which is because they do not dilute the fats, so they "burn" the vegetables to death.
"Uncle Fu, you can find some time to tell Precinct Head that the farmland can only be used for fattening fields after it has been diluted by the farm manure." Qin Mian said.
"Yes, Young Master." Uncle Fu reported in detail about what happened at home, "Uncle Quan brought four people to dig peanuts in the peanut field. My family and my uncle\'s family are cutting yellow bean vines. "
"Got it."
Qin Mian and Lei Tia went back home and put on their straw hats to help in the peanut field.
Lei Tia pulled the peanuts out one by one and piled them all together. Qin Mian sat on the small stool and placed the peanuts one by one into the basket. When the peanuts were in the Leisurely Dwelling House, Qin Mian secretly sprinkled the diluted Spirit Spring Water s on them. He had already thought of what to eat at noon.
He was so busy that noon, that Qin Mian returned home to cook a meal an hour earlier. He made some old vinegar and peanuts to taste the freshness.
The peanuts on half an acre of land were harvested in a day. After the peanut vines were pulled out, he would use the hoe to hoe the soil again to pick at the leaks. This was also done while digging up the soil to prepare for the next round of planting.
After the peanuts were finished, they dug up the sweet potatoes. Digging sweet potatoes requires experience. If you are not careful, you will dig up the sweet potatoes underground. They are not good to look at and are not convenient to store.
Qin Mian and Lei Tia did not have much experience in this matter, so they did not interfere and handed over the responsibility to the servants. Lei Tia took his sickle and harvested the rice. Qin Mian, on the other hand, carried out the general arrangements for the Shuangzhuan Restaurant, the tasty food at the restaurant, the Processing Factory and the farmland at home. In the half month after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the wine workshop and the powder workshop only worked for half a day, and of course, the salary was only calculated by half. The villagers praised Lei Tia and Qin Mian for being considerate.
There was one more thing that Qin Mian was responsible for ?? delivering food to Lei Tia. The autumn tiger in September was venomous, walking in the sun for a while. Qin Mian\'s head was aching from the sun, regretting that he did not wear a straw hat when he came out, hence he hastened his pace.
Seeing his wife carrying a food box and walking closer and closer along the ridge of the field, Lei Tia\'s heart softened as he recalled the similar situation last year. Unknowingly, he had been with his wife for a year.
"What are you daydreaming for?" Qin Mian ridiculed, but he was a little shy in his heart. In front of a crowd of people, Lei Tia was still looking at him with such an undisguised and gentle gaze;
Lei Tia pulled him to sit on a bunch of grains, took off his straw hat and put it on his head, "Have you eaten?"
"Yes." Qin Mian first gave the water bag to him for him to wash, then took down a wooden board from the bottom of the food box. This plank is a folding tray. He opened the tray and placed the tray on his lap, then took out the food from the box and placed it on the tray.
There was a pot of homemade meat, a piece of steamed meat, a fried egg with leek, and a bowl of soup. They were all common dishes, but the smell was very good.
After Lei Tia washed his hands and face, he picked up the tray and placed it on his lap, then picked up the rice bowl and started to eat.
Qin Mian took out a fan from his waist and fa
ed him.
"Wife, I\'m not hot."
Qin Mian continued to fan, "I was fa
ing myself, fa
ing you was just a convenience."
"Yes." Lei Tia asked, "Do you want to eat more?"
Qin Mian shook his head, "I\'m full."
From time to time, the villagers who were also eating in the neighboring rice fields would cast envious glances in their direction.
Uncle Fu and the others were sitting not far away and were also eating. Their food had all been sent by Aunt and Aunt Fu. A pot of green pepper scrambled eggs and a pot of stewed eggplant are excellent treatment. When doing physical work, they needed oily water. For them, stewed eggplant with fat meat slices was the most delicious.
The biggest rice field in Lei Daqiang\'s house was not far from here, Lei Xiangren had long seen Qin Mian delivering food here, holding onto his bowl, he walked over quickly, greeting him loudly, with a warm tone: "Big brother, are you eating right now?"
Lei Tia looked at him but did not say a word. He picked up a piece of steamed meat and placed it in his mouth. The steamed meat made by his wife was soft and fragrant.
Lei Xiangren squatted beside Lei Tia, his eyes fixed on the tray as he looked at it, "Sis\' culinary skills are still so good, seeing that these few dishes are so delicious, I want to try it."
He licked the grains of rice from his chopsticks and held them out towards the steamed meat.
Lei Tia\'s face instantly darkened.
When Qin Mian saw that the chopsticks were still stained with Lei Xiangren\'s saliva, he frowned. When Lei Xiangren\'s chopsticks were about to touch the steamed meat, he immediately stopped him and said to Lei Tia with a smile: "Tia, Second Brother will definitely be embarrassed to pinch more. Help him pinch more."
Lei Tia nodded and paused for a moment. He turned his chopsticks around and picked up a few pieces of steamed meat and fried eggs with leek for Lei Xiangren.
Qin Mian secretly laughed with his face covered with a fan.
Lei Xiangren didn\'t notice in the slightest that Qin Mian and Lei Tia were disgusted by him. After getting a discount, he contentedly retracted his chopsticks and started to eat.
"Big brother, eldest sister-in-law, your parents have been exhausted over the past few days. Your family now has more than ten servants. How about you lend us a few to use? "
Lei Tia said resolutely, "No."
Qin Mian took over, "Second Brother, you should also know that what our family cultivates are rice, peanuts, sweet potatoes, fruit trees ?? In addition, they had to feed the cows and chickens; they had to be guarded within the Processing Factory. I\'m afraid I won\'t be able to spare the manpower in a short period of time. "
Lei Xiangren opened his mouth to speak when Qin Mian spoke again, but his tone carried surprise, "Second Brother, if I remember correctly, your family has a total of twelve acres of paddy field. Your family\'s current workforce includes the old man, the old lady, the Second Brother, the Second Brother, Third Brother, Third Sister-in-Law and the Fourth Younger Brother, a total of seven people. Did your family buy a field again? Why else would they not have enough manpower? Buying land is a good thing, yet you two are still hiding this from Tia and me. "
Lei Xiangren was rendered speechless by him. After a while, he said in embarrassment: "I didn\'t buy any land. I was just saying. "
"Oh." Qin Mian gave him a few more pieces of meat with Lei Tia\'s chopsticks as if he believed her. "Oh right, Second Brother, I heard that you and Little Sister Second Brother intended to enlighten Big Treasure, so the old man and old lady definitely agreed to it, right? With one look, that kid Big Treasure is very smart. In the future, he will definitely be as promising as his fifth uncle. "
Lei Tia looked at his wife, a trace of smile flashing across his face, before he quietly buried his head into the meal.
Lei Xiangren raised the dissatisfaction in his heart towards Madam Du and Lei Daqiang, and said with a sunken voice: "This matter ?? Neither father nor mother agreed. "
"Impossible!" Qin Mian said in shock, "Da Bao is already six years old. Everyone knows that at this age, a child is the smartest and the most suitable to be enlightened. And Big Treasure was the eldest grandson of the family! "How could the old gramps and old gra
y ??" When he said the last sentence, his voice was very soft, as if he was talking to himself. His tone carried some surprise and sudden realization.
Lei Xiangren\'s curiosity was piqued, his heart was filled with suspicion, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?"
"Nothing," Qin Mian said as he changed the topic, "Second Brother, try a few pieces of steamed meat."
Lei Xiangren however thought about a lot of things from Qin Mian\'s words. That\'s right, Big Treasure was the eldest grandson of the old man and the old lady. He was intelligent, so why did the old man and the old lady refuse to enlighten him? Did they only have their youngest son in their sights? He wanted to leave all the money he had saved and all the money he had scammed to his youngest son? Why!
"Big brother, sister-in-law, I still have some matters to attend to so I\'ll be leaving first." Lei Xiangren stood up and left in a hurry.
Lei Tia picked up a piece of soft meat and placed it near Qin Mian\'s mouth.
Qin Mian opened his mouth to eat it, urging: "Quickly eat it, it will get cold in a while."
Uncle Fu and the others heard the conversation between Qin Mian and the two ladies, and were extremely impressed by Qin Mian. This was what it meant to kill someone. The mighty Young Master!
