Transmigration: To Be His Man

Chapter 120 Examination for Elementary Scholars

The smaller fish in the pond weighed about a catty, while the larger one weighed about three to four catties. After sending a few to Shuangzhuan Restaurant s, Shuangzhuan Restaurant was immediately introduced to the entire fish feast, which also attracted a countless number of customers.

Many villagers thought that the Qin Mian Family fish were good, and wanted to buy some marinated fish for the new year. Qin Mian decided to sell the two hundred pieces to the villagers, leaving the rest for them to eat, and also continue to supply Shuangzhuan Restaurant.

What Qin Mian and Lei Tia did not expect was that almost every single household in the village came over to buy fish. Most of them only bought one fish, while some bought even more. heard from Uncle Fu that many villagers thought that buying things from their families would benefit from their luck, and he found it extremely fu

y.

Since his own fish were so plump, Qin Mian would of course treat himself well. He would make new fishes, carp, crucian carp, grass carp, steamed, braised meat, sweet and sour sauce, boiled meat ?? He and Lei Tia ate fish for a few days in a row.

The Leisurely Dwelling House emitted an alluring fragrance every day. Zhou Erhao and his wife who were separated from them by a wall drooled three times a day, but they could only continue to be jealous.

On this morning, Qin Mian and Lei Tia was in the greenhouse, inspecting the growth of the vegetables. Because of the ideas provided by Qin Mian, Uncle Fu and Uncle led the others to ponder it for a few days. The greenhouse was protected from the cold by straw mats, reed mats, and rain cloths, and occasionally burned firewood. Some of the vegetable seeds that had been sown were now sprouting.

At this moment, the joyous gongs and drums came from outside the village, and they were getting closer and closer.

"Tia, from this sound, could it be that you have reached the Elementary Scholar status in the Fifth Brother?" Qin Mian guessed.

Lei Tia casually plucked a stalk of grass from the vegetable garden and calmly said, "There will be an answer later."

After a while, Lei Qinle rushed in happily.

"Eldest Young Master, Young Master, the Fifth Young Master has managed to become an Elementary Scholar!" A second place! "

Qin Mian pulled Lei Tia outside, "We should also go and get some joy from hearing this."

If one became an Elementary Scholar, he or she would have the privilege of entering the ranks of the Scholar class. However, if he or she were to see someone, he or she would not kneel and would not be punished. Lei Xiangzhi was second in the A grade, and was considered as one of the Elementary Scholars. The entrance of the old residence was crowded with people. They were all villagers who had rushed over to see what was going on after hearing the news. It had been nearly ten years since an Elementary Scholar had appeared in the Qingshan Village, and Lei Xiangzhi not only made the Lei Daqiang Family happy, but also made his Qingshan Village up. The children were also infected by this jubilant feeling, and they happily drilled around among the adults.

When Qin Mian walked to the entrance of the courtyard, he was unable to squeeze in at the moment, he could only hear the Madam Du's and Lei Daqiang's loud voices and Precinct Head's happy laughter.

Almost everyone was brimming with joy as they spoke joyous words. Thus, a mocking and sarcastic voice was especially prominent.

"So what if Lei Daqiang has an Elementary Scholar? The people from the county have come all the way here to report their good fortune, and they aren't even willing to give one of them money. "

Once these words were said, someone immediately agreed, "That's right, it was originally a joyous occasion, but Lei Daqiang and Madam Du made the people who brought the joyous occasion walk away with dark faces, wasn't it just a disappointment?"

There was also a mischievous young man who joined in, "Yeah. I'm still ru

ing in front of the people reporting the good news, and I haven't even fished out my saliva yet. "

The corner of Qin Mian's mouth twitched. Madam Du and Lei Daqiang really did not explain.

Lei Xiangzhi hurriedly walked out of the courtyard, with a smile on his face, he bowed to the crowd and said politely: "Thank you for your concern, all uncles and aunts, Xiangzhi is extremely grateful. Today, there were many guests, and my parents could not take care of them. Xiangzhi apologized on their behalf, please forgive them. Three days from now, my father will be having a feast at home.

After exchanging a few words of courtesy and concern, a few discontented villagers began to chat with him with a smile on their faces.

After a while, the villagers gradually dispersed.

Lei Xiangzhi quickly invited Qin Mian and his sister into the house, "Big brother, sister-in-law, I apologize for making you ridicule me earlier, please come in."

"It's fine, it's fine, congratulations to the Elementary Scholars of the Fifth Brother." Qin Mian laughed and cupped his hands at Lei Xiangzhi.

Lei Xiangzhi bowed and said: "If not for Big Brother and Big Sis's support for this little brother, this little brother would not have today's results."

The three of them walked into the living room as they spoke.

Lei Daqiang and Madam Du sat on the seat of honor. Lei Daqiang was gri

ing from ear to ear, his gaze sweeping across Qin Mian and Lei Tia. Madam Du held her head high and her chest high, her chin high and her height even higher than before.

Qin Mian said with a smile that was not a smile. This was the first time since the Madam Wei had entered that she was sitting alone with Lei Daqiang in the upper seat, during the few times she had been to the old house.

Madam Wei leaned on a soft chair, there was no dissatisfaction on her face, there was a smile in her eyes, as if she was genuinely happy that Lei Xiangzhi had become an Elementary Scholar.

Lei Xiangren, Mrs Zhao, Lei Xiangyi, Madam Qian, Lei Xianglee and the others all sat on the wooden bench with joyous expressions on their faces.

On the table in the middle of the hall, there were a few plates of food, a plate of melon seeds, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of osmanthus cake and a plate of dried fruits. Very rare, Madam Du actually did not stop after Precinct Head had said his goodbyes.

Lei Xiangren, Madame Zhao and Lei Dabao were eating their melon seeds as if they were competing.

"You came at the right time." Lei Daqiang pointed at Qin Mian and Lei Tia, "Boss, this time, your Fifth Brother getting an Elementary Scholar status is a great matter. I had a discussion with your mother and decided to treat you to di

er in three days. "

Madam Du continued, "When the time comes, we will need to invite the fifth brother's principal, teachers, and relatives. "As for the villagers, those shallow ones ??"

Qin Mian laughed, and being seen by the Madam Du, he frowned, his face filled with displeasure: "Boss's wife, what are you laughing about?"

Qin Mian's expression was i

ocent and sincere at the same time, "I am happy for Fifth Brother!"

The Madam Du did not believe him, but there was nothing he could do, he continued, "Those people with shallow eyes would definitely come to eat and drink with their entire family. The number of people added up was not small. The top grade noodles were about two tables, the middle grade noodles were about four tables, and the ordinary noodles were about ten tables. The cost would definitely not be small. "We roughly estimated it to be seven to eight silver."

Lei Xiangzhi frowned, "Father, Mother, is it too much? Everyone knows what our family's conditions are, so we don't need to go public. "

It was only appropriate for Lei Xiangzhi to say this. If it was Lei Tia, Lei Xiangren, Lei Xiangyi or any of Lei Xianglee's words, Madam Du and Lei Daqiang would definitely think that they did not care about their younger brother's life. As for Lei Chuntao, it was impossible, as ladies who had not left the pavilion were not qualified to participate in matters of the family.

"Ol 'Five," Lei Daqiang looked at Lei Xiangzhi accusingly, "In our fifth generation of Lei Family, there was only one Elementary Scholar like you. Boss, you're the family's boss, what do you say? The guests this time were not only your relatives and the villagers, but also your Fifth Brother's Principal and teachers.

Lei Xiangren interrupted: "Father, Mother, we might as well treat guests at the Shuangzhuan Restaurant. How simple!"

Mrs Zhao's eyes lit up, and she quickly agreed, "That's right, treating people at the Shuangzhuan Restaurant is so honorable! "Big brother and sister-in-law are family, and can save a lot of money. Right, Father, Mother?"

Qin Mian's expression turned cold, he self-evaluated whether he had been too merciful to Lei Xiangren and Mrs Zhao in the past.

Lei Tia indifferently looked at Madam Du and Lei Daqiang, waiting for them to express their opinion.

Lei Daqiang also thought that Lei Xiangren's idea was not bad, and was about to nod his head, when his gaze returned to Lei Tia's cold and emotionless eyes. With a quiver, he glared at Lei Xiangren and Madame Zhao, and berated them: "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as mutes!"

Lei Xiangzhi heaved a sigh of relief.

Lei Tia said: "My wife and I will offer five taels of silver and twenty jugs of good wine, as well as a table of noodles."

Lei Daqiang nodded slightly, "It's good that you can still put your Fifth Brother in your heart. Also, get a chef from Shuangzhuan Restaurant. "

Qin Mian remained calm and collected.

"Dad, this move is inappropriate." Lei Xiangzhi immediately objected as he looked at Lei Daqiang's furious eyes. He patiently explained, "The guests that Shuangzhuan Restaurant receive are people that ordinary people ca

ot afford to offend. It would be a bad thing if he missed his guest because of the lack of a cook. The noble seats that Big Brother mentioned must also come from Shuangzhuan Restaurant, this is already something that has a lot of face. "

Lei Daqiang thought that was also true. Since Ol 'Five was going to participate in the examination in the future, he couldn't go against his boss now. He nodded and said, "Father will listen to you."

Madam Du added, "Bring us some fruits and fish from the elders."

Lei Tia ignored her.

Lei Xiangzhi stood up, "Mother, please discuss the banquet with father first. I want to chat with my big brother and my big sister-in-law. "

Madam Du looked at his fifth son as if he liked him, and nodded his head, "Okay, okay, go."

Qin Mian, Lei Tia and Lei Xiangzhi walked out of the courtyard together.

Lei Xiangzhi let out a long sigh, "Finally able to take a breather."

Qin Mian understood the meaning behind his words, and did not know what to say.

The three of them slowly walked towards the back of the village.

"Fifth Brother, there's still the homecoming test next September, don't slack off." Qin Mian joked.

Lei Xiangzhi smiled, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. It was just an Elementary Scholar examination. I had no intention of entertaining any guests. "However, we haven't dealt with the matter of the joyous news today. We've offended some people, so we might as well use this opportunity to relieve the unhappiness in their hearts."

Qin Mian secretly nodded. Lei Xiangzhi looked at the stupefied students, but in reality, he was an intelligent person. He saw through many things and was able to make the right analysis and find the right solution. This kind of person was very suitable for the government. Maybe Lei Xiangzhi would be able to find a glorious path in the future. As long as his heart didn't change, it was worth it to continue their interactions.

"You can come with us to get the money and some fruits." Qin Mian said.

Lei Xiangzhi was extremely respectful to his sister-in-law, to the extent that there was even a tinge of admiration in his heart.

After entering the Leisurely Dwelling House, Lei Xiangzhi said: "Big Brother, Big Sis, I can stay at home for ten days before returning to the Academy. I plan to suggest that Father and Mother split up after the banquet."

"How are we going to split the loot?" Qin Mian asked.

Lei Xiangzhi said: "Since we are splitting up, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother and I will split up. Father, Mother, and Mother will follow whoever I am willing to follow."

"Will your Second Brother be willing?" Qin Mian disapproved.

Lei Xiangzhi said sternly: "Eldest Sister-in-Law, Big Brother, I don't mind speaking to you guys from the bottom of my heart, I want to be an official. Only by being an official will I have a chance to realize my dreams. I'm not afraid that my family will be happy with me. I'm afraid that someone will drag me down. If Second Brother and Second Sister-in-Law continue to follow me like that, it will only bring them trouble. Thinking lightly, he would be in trouble. Thinking seriously, he was afraid that he might get into some kind of lawsuit. It would be harder to separate from them then. Therefore, I plan to take this opportunity to separate the Second Brother from the rest. After he and second sister were separated, without the help of father, mother, third brother, and Fourth Brother, they could only rely on themselves. This might not be a bad thing for them. "

Qin Mian looked at him with praise, full of determination, "It's good that you understand this point. However, it's very difficult to separate Second Brother from you. "

This was the truth. Normally, Lei Xiangren and Mrs Zhao would brag about how powerful his Fifth Brother was in front of the villagers. They were all one family, so it was normal for them to want to get lucky. However, they were afraid that not only would they get lucky, they would also get into trouble.

Lei Xiangzhi nodded, "Yes. So, I still need Big Brother and Big Sis's help. "

"How can we help?" Qin Mian did not understand. He and Lei Tia had already separated, and had no reason to interfere in the matters of the old residence's branch family.

was not afraid that his words would spread. Immediately, he spoke straightforwardly, "I would like to borrow a hundred silver taels from Big Brother and Second Sister-in-Law. When the time comes, give Second Brother two options and live with me without any money. If you do it alone, give him a hundred silver. "

Qin Mian laughed. This was indeed a good idea. A hundred silver taels was not a small sum. Taking the old mansion for example, if one were to dig in the ground for a lifetime, he would not be able to earn a hundred silver taels even in two lifetimes. Furthermore, Lei Xiangren and Madame Zhao were both short-sighted people. Normally, they would not be able to eat well at home, and there was a high chance that they would not be able to bear the enticement of a hundred silver taels.
