Chapter 45 Qin Fengs Counterattack
Madam Du stood beside Lei Daqiang, gloating while churning in his eyes. She glanced at Faang Hongliu and Zhou Cuihua who were listening in, tugged on Lei Daqiang's sleeves and hypocritically advised: "Old man, speak nicely."
"If he can't even control his own wife, how can he explain it properly?" Lei Daqiang jumped up and pointed at Lei Tia's nose, "What use is there having a son like you! Your wife actually dares to say such disrespectful words to me, that is unfilial! Say it yourself! "
Faang Hongliu and Zhou Cuihua looked at each other, squatting there and not showing any intentions of leaving, they continued to rub their clothes playfully.
Qin Mian's face changed, he walked to Lei Tia's side and stood, after hesitating for a moment, he quietly held onto his hand.
Lei Tia had already lost all hope in Lei Daqiang, and he said indifferently: "My wife and I both know that you don't welcome us. Since the last time we built the house, my wife has never gone to your house. I also want to ask, how did my wife offend you. "
"You!" Lei Daqiang was flustered and exasperated, his cheeks flushed red, "Bastard, you've gone against the will of the heavens! The last time he called you a bastard, I scolded him, he actually said it was none of my business, is that what a wife can say? "
"Ha!" "It's fu
y." Qin Mian did not want to endure any longer, he blocked Lei Tia's mouth with his arm, and said loudly, "Since Sister-in-Law Zhou and Sister-in-Law Fang are here, we can be witnesses. Now that you mention it, I'll tell you what happened. Your son has been hunting in the mountains for three days without a trace. I'll ask you to find a few people to go with me to look for him, but as a father, you pretend not to have heard me. This one. Whatever it is, you can say it in private and insult your son in front of two strangers. The second. You are unkind! What right did a father have to ask for the filial piety of his son? "Even if you were to report it to the yamen, you have no reason to do so!"
To the yamen? Madam Du was shocked, her pupils constricted and her neck also shrunk.
"You, you ?? "It's the opposite, it's the opposite ??" Lei Daqiang's fingers trembled, his face red like it was about to burn.
Qin Mian raised his head and stuck his chest out, and sneaked a peek at Lei Tia.
Lei Tia embraced his shoulder, and said indifferently: "We still have things to attend to, excuse us."
The two of them ignored Lei Daqiang and Madam Du and continued to pick up pebbles. It was as if nothing had happened.
"You, just you wait, I'll go find someone to judge!" "Humph!" Lei Daqiang was furious, he pretended to be fierce, but was weak inside.
Madam Du hurriedly followed. Thinking back to what Qin Mian had just said, he felt uneasy in his heart.
Qin Mian frowned. He had to teach Lei Daqiang and Madam Du a lesson. Otherwise, if these two kept on making trouble, would they be able to calm down? Seeing Faang Hongliu and Zhou Cuihua winking at each other, muttering to himself with a face full of excitement, he made a plan in his mind and quickly walked over.
"Sister-in-law."
"Wha, what's the matter?" When Faang Hongliu thought about that shiny kitchen knife in her memory, she shuddered and the clothes in her hands almost floated away with the water.
Zhou Cuihua laughed dryly, and did not dare make a sound.
Qin Mian took out a money pouch from his sleeve and said with a beaming smile, "Sisters, don't worry. I have long forgotten about what happened last time. They were all from the same village, and were all from the same village. Don't you think so? "
"Right, right, little brother is too right." Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu nodded their heads, their gazes sweeping the purse, not understanding what had happened, and quietly glanced at Lei Tia. Lei Tia was still picking up the stones, seemingly very indulgent towards Qin Mian.
Qin Mian laughed: "As long as you do me a small favor, I can give each of you 100 gold coins. How about it? Of course, it's certainly not murder or arson. "
Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu's eyes lit up.
Zhou Cuihua probed: "What is it?"
Qin Mian squatted beside the two of them and lowered his voice. His smile was crafty and his bright eyes shone with excitement.
Lei Tia saw everything clearly and shook his head slightly. He picked up two of the pebbles and threw them into the basket.
On the other side, Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu stopped washing their clothes and stood up with excitement in their eyes.
"Don't worry, little brother. We promise we will settle this matter well!" Zhou Cuihua promised sincerely.
Faang Hongliu picked up the clothes and threw them into the basket, then said anxiously: "Leave it to us, we will take care of it right now!"
Qin Mian generously gave the two of them a total of 40 gold, "This money can be considered as the deposit, after you finish handling this matter, I will pay the rest."
"No problem."
Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu carried their laundry baskets as they walked quickly with their little feet. Soon enough, they entered the village.
Qin Mian laughed sinisterly, and a small stone hit him in his chest.
"Come and help."
"He's coming." Qin Mian walked over with a smile.
"What did he say?" Lei Tia asked.
Qin Mian squatted beside him and snickered, "Secret."
Lei Tia had heard it all, but he liked to see Yue Yang's satisfied look and liked how much Yue Yang cared about him more.
The two of them went back and forth to pick up a sufficient number of pebbles. The cobblestone path stretched from the entrance of the courtyard all the way to the entrance of the hall. It was also co
ected to the bathroom door. The cobblestone was smashed hard by Lei Tia's hammer and embedded into the ground. It was solid enough, and it looked beautiful and generous.
By the time he finished, it was already noon.
"Shall we have hot pot at noon?" Qin Mian asked for Lei Tia's opinion, "There was no hot and dry bamboo stick."
"Yes."
"Go to the garden and pick some of each herb, and also ??" Qin Mian smiled, "Pay attention to whether there are any movements in the village."
Lei Tia nodded and carried the vegetable basket out.
Qin Mian went to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for the hotpot. The basic ingredients for the hot pot base in the modern hotpot restaurant could be seen by most people. The reason why Qin Mian grinded the Cheng Pi, Zanthoxylum bungee and the others into powder was so that they would be hard to recognize. He concocted a total of eighteen ingredients in the hot pot, including chili, pepper, ci
amon, peels, octagonal, ci
amon and so on. There were a few dishes that were not used as seasonings by the people of this world, and were instead used as medicinal herbs or as spices. This was also the main reason why the dishes in those restaurants did not taste very good. It was only because of Qin Mian's blessings of travelling through another time and space that he was able to pick up such a big bargain.
This seasoning could not only be used to cook the hotpot, but also be used to fry vegetables.
The moment Lei Tia entered the door, he smelled a nice fragrance coming from the inside, and his Adam's apple involuntarily moved a little.
"I'm back." Qin Mian unceremoniously commanded, "Let's go to wash the vegetables together. "We have to dig a well in the yard. It's too troublesome to always go out to fetch water. It's not convenient to wash the vegetables."
Lei Tia's gaze swept across the bright red soup on the charcoal stove, then moved a wooden block to the kitchen and sat face to face with Qin Mian, who was holding a peeler to peel potatoes.
"Is there any movement in the village?" This was what Qin Mian was most concerned about.
Lei Tia lifted his eyelids and glanced at him, "Mn, I saw many people discussing along the way, I didn't hear anything."
Qin Mian decided to wait for news from Faang Hongliu and her wife. He saw two wet lotus roots in the vegetable basket, "Where did you get these lotus roots?"
"Brother Zhang gave it to me."
Qin Mian got up to wash the vegetables, trembling from the ice water, "Brother Zhang is a really nice person. If the Brother Zhang is willing to come, can we ask him to make a lot of bamboo sticks? This can be done at home, so it's not troublesome. "
"Of course he will." Lei Tia also stood up, "You choose your dishes, I'll wash the dishes."
"Sure, you do it." Qin Mian was happy, "Anyway, your skin is thicker than mine."
Lei Tia remained silent and let him bully his.
The two clearly divided the work. They quickly filled the plates with the prepared ingredients and brought them to the table. Lotus Root Slices, spinach, pork balls, potato chips, mushrooms and tofu were all there was to be found. Chops of wild chicken meat had already been cooked beforehand, and the taste was so delicious that it made people drool.
Unfortunately, there were no powders. This was Qin Mian's current regret. However, in the future, he would definitely be able to make more of them.
"Let's eat."
The two of them picked up their chopsticks and washed them while eating.
"How is it? The taste isn't bad, right? " Qin Mian took a bite of the chicken. It was soft and tasty, and he squinted his eyes in satisfaction. "There's a market in the town, it's convenient to buy vegetables, there'll be more kinds of dishes when we officially open a shop."
Lei Tia picked up a piece of chicken and found that it was chicken leg meat. He placed it into Qin Mian's bowl and said, "Please wash the vegetables by yourself."
"Of course." Qin Mian said, "You will be in charge of cooking, I will be in charge of collecting the debts, and I will also get a waiter to wash the dishes and the bowls. "For the time being, let's do this. If business is good enough, let's hire more people."
Speaking to this, his butt moved uncomfortably on the stool, and he coughed lightly, "I don't want the people from the old dwelling to interfere in the business of the shop, so I had no intention of inviting them. Do you have any objections? "
Lei Tia did not reveal an unhappy expression, and only asked: "Why?"
Qin Mian explained: "I personally think that the most taboo in business is the involvement of relatives. If there is a conflict, it will affect the relationship between relatives. Third brother, Fourth Younger Brother, Fifth Brother and little sister are all not bad. In the future, it would be better to give them an idea to earn money by themselves than to let them meddle in our shop. "
Lei Tia looked at him warmly, "I'll listen to you."
Qin Mian laughed again as he picked up the spoon and scooped up two meat balls for him.
Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu entered while smelling the fragrance, and both of them were drooling in their hearts.
"I'm eating."
"The two sister-in-law are here." Qin Mian stood up to welcome him.
Zhou Cuihua immediately said: "Take a seat, you guys continue eating."
Seeing their expressions, Qin Mian knew that the matter was settled. He invited the two to sit and first moved Lei Tia away, "Brother Tia, go and get some meat balls." What he had asked Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu to do was actually targeted at Lei Daqiang and the Madam Du. Even if Lei Tia was clear about the matter, he could not let Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu know that Lei Tia was the one who did it. If not, Lei Tia's reputation would be affected.
Lei Tia obediently entered the kitchen.
