Transmigration: To Be His Man

Chapter 64 A Relative s Meal be Not Tasty(2)



Quite a number of people were seated within the room. Lei Dagang, his daughter-in-law, his two sons, his eldest daughter-in-law, his two grandchildren and even the entire family was present. There was also Lei Xiaofeng and her family. Lei Xiaofeng's husband was called Wan Yang Tree. Her eldest daughter Wan Xiao Xiang was already married. His only son, Wan Yaozu, was married to Chen Shi. His youngest daughter, Wan Xiao Rou, was already engaged to be married in April. Lei Xiaoyun and Dong Daniu's eldest son, Dong Ying, second son, Dong Xiong, eldest son's wife, Lady Wang, second son's wife, Little Wang was entertaining the guests. A few kids were ru

ing around the house.

Lei Xiaoyun, Lei Dagang, Lei Daqiang and Lei Xiaofeng had a total of four siblings. Qin Mian had finally recognized all the relatives of Lei Daqiang's side.

It was crowded with so many people in the house. Fortunately, the main hall was large enough, otherwise, it would not be able to fit inside.

Lei Daqiang and Lei Dagang still had nothing to say to each other. They spoke a few words of courtesy and greeted the others separately. Only after they exchanged pleasantries did the entire room finally settle down.

A few people swept their eyes across the area between Qin Mian and Qin Mian.

Qin Mian acted as if he did not notice it, quietly sitting against the wall with his legs crossed gracefully. He held a cup of hot tea in his hands, and occasionally took a sip.

Lei Tia was originally paralyzed, so he acted as if nothing had happened.

After a while, someone shouted, "Come catch the pig!"

A few of the men got up to help or watch, and the children ran out to watch.

Qin Mian did not move, and neither did Lei Tia.

Madam Wei said to Madam Du: "Elder sister, why don't we go to the kitchen and help out?"

Madam Du ridiculed him: "Why do you need to tell me? Go and tell the old man yourself, if you don't tell him, how would he know that you are diligent?"

Madam Wei was neither angry nor a

oyed, "Elder sister, are you angry with me? Strictly speaking, you and I are closer than you, but I was wrong. "Since elder sister didn't say anything, I shouldn't have made a move."

Madam Du suddenly stood up, "Are you saying I'm lazy?"

The Madam Wei said apologetically: "Elder sister really misunderstood me. Forget it, I'll go outside and take a look. " Finished speaking, she gracefully left.

Lei Tia suddenly said in a low voice, "Madam Du is too weak."

Qin Mian understood his meaning ?? Once the Madam Wei completely repressed the Madam Du, it was not impossible for the Madam Wei not to have their eyes on them.

But he was not worried about that, and quietly nodded at Lei Xiangzhi who was frowning while looking at Madam Wei's back, "Fifth Brother will not let Madam Du suffer any losses."

Amongst the brothers from Lei Family, the one Madam Du doted the most on was Lei Xiangzhi. Amongst the brothers, Lei Xiangzhi was also the one who was the most filial to Madam Du. Lei Xiangzhi couldn't just watch Madam Du get restricted by the Madam Wei. Once he had Lei Xiangzhi's guidance, Madam Du's "fighting strength" would be on par with his. Therefore, Madam Du's weakness was only temporary, and her "struggle" with her Madam Wei would continue.

Dong Wei walked over and asked, "What are you two talking about?" It's boring to stay in the house, why don't I take you out for a walk? "

Qin Mian looked into the courtyard, there was a large group of people squeezed together, there was a pigsty at the corner, a few men were surrounding the pigs, and there were almost two hundred kilograms of pigs ru

ing around the pigpen, hissing non-stop, with an ear-piercing sound. He nodded nonchalantly at Dong Wei.

The three of them left the courtyard and strolled along the village road.

The village in winter was withered everywhere, with no scenery to look at. The three of them inadvertently walked to the edge of the pond. In the white water, there were several stalks of withered and yellow lotus roots. They were short and long, but all of them looked lonely. Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow past, causing the surface of the water to ripple.

Dong Wei stopped walking and said with a smile, "Cousin Tie, I heard from my mother that you have opened a restaurant in the town. I'm sure your business must be quite good."

Lei Tia replied: "It's alright."

Dong Wei said, "Congratulations, cousin Tie. I hope you can make a fortune." I heard you have a total of five shop assistants? "

Lei Tia nodded.

Qin Mian thought that Dong Wei would beg them to arrange a place for him in the shop to help, but he just smiled and changed the topic, "There is a stone in the back of our village that rolled down from the mountain a few years ago. It has a strange shape and is quite famous in the vicinity. I'll take you guys to see it. "

Qin Mian and Lei Tia looked at each other, as they were a little confused about what he was pla

ing to do, and followed him towards the back.

After looking at the stone, the three of them slowly walked back. Dong Wei did not bring up the topic of the store anymore and just chatted about some random things.

The moment Lei Xiaoyun saw his youngest son, she shot him a look.

Dong Wei saw Qin Mian and into the living room before coming out.

Lei Xiaoyun pulled him to the side and whispered: "Did Lei Tia promise to let you go to the shop to work?"

Dong Wei crossed his arms and slanted his body lazily, "I didn't say."

Lei Xiaoyun was startled, she extended a finger and poked him, "Child, I am not telling you -"

Dong Wei interrupted her, "Mom, don't worry." I have my own plans. "

"What can you do? If I can work in your cousin Tie's shop, I'll get at least six or seven hundred gold coins a month. " Lei Xiaoyun said snappily, looking a little discouraged. In fact, she knew all too well what her own son was like. He had been through a lot of bad habits and had changed a lot. When she first came back, she was almost afraid to recognize him. However, it was a piece of meat that had fallen from her body. How could she not be worried? The sons of other families would usually get married at the age of 16 or 17. This son of hers was already 19, and even after four or five times of talking, he still hadn't succeeded. How could she not think of a way?

Dong Wei quickly held her shoulders and comforted her in a low voice, "Mother, listen to me. It's almost the new year, how much can you get even if you can work at your cousin's store? Today's main goal was to get close with Elder Cousin Tie and Brother Xu. If he were to accompany them for a few more drinks at the dining table, their relationship would naturally get closer. Wait until the new year, you come to my house to pay New Year, and I will come to your house to pay my respects, that would be a good time to talk about it, wouldn't it? It's the new year, so even if they were unwilling in their hearts, it wouldn't be good for them to give you the face of an aunt like yourself, right? "What do you think?"

Lei Xiaoyun's eyes lit up, and slapped him on the shoulder with a palm, as she said joyfully: "You brat, you still have a way. Only, your aunt is also very concerned about Lei Tia and his wife, and might have the same plan as us. What if she stole it first? "

Dong Wei said hesitantly, "It shouldn't be?" I heard that Yaozu was working in a tailor's shop and was highly valued by the shopkeeper. There was no need to change his profession, was there? "

"I'm not sure." Lei Xiaoyun disagreed, "How can a tailor shop's business be better than a restaurant's business?"

Dong Wei thought for a while and said, "Mom, I don't need to do anything for now. Let's take a look first."

Inside the hall, Lei Xiaofeng was talking to Lei Tia and Qin Mian as Lei Xiaoyun had expected. Her words were very tactful, but the meaning behind the words were that Lei Tia and Qin Mian should arrange for Wan Xiao Rou's fianc?? to work in the eatery.

Wan Xiao Rou's fianc??, Zhang, had become an honest man with a simple family background. It was because Lei Xiaofeng had his eyes on this that he was willing to marry her to him. The only bad thing about Zhang Cheng was that his family's condition was average. That was why Lei Xiaofeng wanted to find something for him to do so that he could let Wan Xiao Rou marry him and relax a little.

Qin Mian told her the truth, the jobs in the shop were all signed with employment documents, if he broke the contract, it would require his to pay a huge amount of money, and the small shop would only rent for one year, after a year, it would not rent anymore.

Lei Xiaofeng was very disappointed, but she did not insist. She smiled at the two of them and walked out.

After the pig was killed, Lei Xiaoyun was washing the ribs in the courtyard. Seeing that she did not look good, she asked with concern, "Little sister, what's wrong?"

The two of them were blood-related sisters. Lei Xiaofeng understood Lei Xiaoyun and was able to guess her thoughts, so she did not hide anything immediately. "Big sister, I wanted to ask Lei Tia to find a job for Zhang Cheng to do, but was rejected ??" Tell Lei Xiaoyun everything.

Lei Xiaoyun's heart skipped a beat, she suddenly stood up and forgot about Dong Wei's orders.

"Little sister, I've thought of something. Help me wash these ribs first."

Lei Xiaoyun hurriedly entered the house and found Lei Tia and Qin Mian.

"Tia, Tia's daughter-in-law, the two of you come in, I have something that I want to tell you."

Qin Mian and Lei Tia followed her into his and Dong Daniu's room.

"May I ask why aunt is looking for us?" Qin Mian asked.

Lei Xiaoyun gave them a handful of dried fruits and fried peanuts, "The two of you are both smart people, and your aunt also won't beat around the bush. I want to ask you two to find something for your great cousin to do. "I believe you've all heard about Dong Wei going to jail, but in reality, it's not what the outsiders said. Dong Wei was framed by someone ??"

Qin Mian declined to comment.

"He has been an honest child since she was young. After she came out of prison, he had become more sensible than before. However, everyone felt that he was a bad child, to the point that from his return until now, he had not been able to find anything to do. She could not even be considered a daughter-in-law. How wrong do you think he is? Of all the children of your generation, the two of you are the most promising, so your aunt would like you to help him. " Lei Xiaoyun pleaded in a low voice.

Qin Mian laughed bitterly: "Aunt has troubled us. If my aunt had said hello to us earlier and asked Cousin Wei to do things for us, we would have been more than happy. However, when we hired those workers, they were all signed for a year. If we chased them away before the time was up, we would have to pay them twenty taels of silver each. We're in a small business, how can we afford it? "

"The business in the eatery is good. You guys can hire more people and arrange for your own people to stay in the shop. Don't you feel more at ease?" Lei Xiaoyun said again.

Qin Mian explained: "There are already five shop assistants in the shop, it's more than enough."

Lei Xiaoyun's expression gradually turned cold. "In the end, you all feel that my son came out of prison because you looked down on him and didn't take us as her relatives."

Lei Tia said: "It's aunt who gave us the problem."

Lei Xiaoyun stood up, her face gloomy, and left without saying a word.

Qin Mian shrugged and dragged Lei Tia out.

After sitting in the living room for a while, the banquet began.

Other than the relatives at Lei Xiaoyun's place, there were also relatives at Dong Daniu's place. Including the villagers who were on good terms with them, there were a total of four tables of guests. There were two tables in the hall and two tables in the courtyard.

"Xiaoyun, are those two your nephew and his man wife?" A middle-aged woman who was sitting next to Lei Xiaoyun pointed at Qin Mian and Lei Tia, covered her mouth and laughed, as her eyes looked towards the side.

Lei Xiaoyun glanced in that direction, and said indifferently: "That's right. Big Sister Jujube, eat. "

Dong Wei frowned and looked at Lei Xiaoyun who was seated on the other table in confusion. What happened?

"Two men being husband and wife, Xiaoyun, don't you feel uncomfortable just by looking at them?" The woman shook her head as she spoke, "You are really ?? Why did you invite them here? "

"The guest is our guest." Lei Xiaoyun laughed and said, "They insist on being together. Even though I'm their aunt, I'm still an outsider after all, so what can I say?"

Lei Tia's face sunk. She pulled Qin Mian along as she stood up and walked in front of Lei Xiaoyun and spoke indifferently: "Aunt, the one who forced us to get married is your own brother. Elder Sister is like a mother. If you had any objections, why didn't you advise him against it back then? "

Lei Xiaoyun's face stiffened.

There was an awkward silence in the courtyard.

The gazes of the people around were like needles as they landed on Lei Daqiang's face, causing his face to turn green.

"We still have matters to attend to, so we'll be taking our leave first." Lei Tia pulled Qin Mian and left.

Lei Dagang laughed out loud and leisurely took a sip of wine. "There are some people who become more muddle-headed as they age."

"Lei Dagang, what is the meaning of this?" Lei Daqiang placed his chopsticks on the table and asked loudly.

"Hehe," Lei Daqiang gave his grandson a piece of soft and tender pork chop, and didn't even raise his eyelids, "It's not like I mentioned my name, no one knows who's the muddled one. I just listened to a country bumpkin's words and forced my son to marry a man. "Sigh, everyone says that 'if there's a stepmother, there's a stepfather'. That's right."

"You ??" Lei Daqiang could not take it anymore and raised his fist.

"You want to hit me? Come if you have the ability. " Lei Dagang also stood up with a disdainful tone.

Lei Daqiang rushed over, "You're courting death!"

The person beside him quickly stopped him, "Hey, don't talk so much!"

The courtyard was in chaos.
