Come to Your Door

In order to let Lei Tia be able to eat whenever he returned, Qin Mian would cook a little more everyday for the past few days. The leftover rice at night could be used to cook rice. He mixed two eggs into a liquid and washed them clean with a carrot and a handful of vegetables. He chopped the carrot into diced vegetables and made a fragrant fried rice.
After Lei Tia finished showering and changed into a clean set of clothes, he went to the kitchen and saw his wife bringing the fried rice to the table, bending over to carry the claypot on the stove, following behind her.
"Is it enough to eat?" Qin Mian asked. There was a huge pile of fried rice on the plate, and it was extremely tasty. Because he loved food, Qin Mian liked all kinds of cutlery. The cutlery in the house were all different, big and small, and the plate that held the fried rice was very big.
"Enough." Lei Tia went to the kitchen to get four bowls, two rice bowls and two soup bowls, "You have some too."
Qin Mian's stomach was indeed a little hungry, hence he scooped a bowl of Stir-Fried Rice.
"Enough?" Lei Tia sat down beside him and asked. Seeing his daughter-in-law nod her head, he moved his plate closer and began to eat without a word.
It was obvious that he was indeed hungry. Even though his movements were not out of grace, he was a bit more anxious. Qin Mian's lips curled up into a faint smile, and impolitely said, "It's not like there's anyone else who wants to snatch it away from you." As he said that, he picked up a soup bowl and scooped up a bowl of soup, placing it on Lei Tia's left hand.
"I haven't eaten anything all day." Lei Tia replied quickly. After drinking a mouthful of soup, he continued to eat.
Qin Mian could not bear to speak further, he also lowered his head and ate. After finishing the bowl of rice, he drank half a bowl of soup and put down his chopsticks, watching Lei Tia eat.
Lei Tia then drank the rest of the soup.
Qin Mian asked uncertainly: "Are you full? I'll make two more pancakes if I'm not full."
"I'm full." Lei Tia stood up and kept the bowl.
Qin Mian yawned, "I will wash up tomorrow."
Lei Tia was surprised. He always knew that his wife loved cleanliness, especially in the kitchen. The used bowls were not allowed to be washed again on the second day. This was the first time.
Under the light, his black eyes were filled with a gentle aura. He responded with a sound, placing the utensils on the stove and coming out.
The two of them rinsed their mouths and returned to their rooms together.
Qin Mian locked the money into the money box, put away the key, and got into bed.
Lei Tia turned off the light and hugged his to his chest. Qin Mian was too lazy to put on an act and adjusted his comfortable posture. He carefully avoided the wounds on the man's body and enjoyed the high temperature of the man's body, confirming once again that the man was the best stove in the winter.
"How have you been these past few days?" In the darkness, Lei Tia was ready to touch his daughter-in-law's face.
Thinking about Lei Daqiang, Qin Mian hesitated, but he still said it. He was sure that Lei Daqiang would come knocking on his door tomorrow.
"It's been a few days since I've seen you and it's raining. I scolded you at the top of the mountain and your father scolded me. After that, I replied, " What does it have to do with you? " Qin Mian said very calmly, but in his heart he was somewhat apprehensive. Lei Daqiang was Lei Tia's father after all."There was no one else."
"It's fine." Lei Tia said indifferently, "As long as you look good on the surface."
Qin Mian did not like the atmosphere, he flipped in his arms and said loudly: "I'm tired, sleep, sleep."
Lei Tia retracted his arms, and hugged the person even tighter, closing his eyes.
The next day, the weather finally cleared up. The cool wind blew gently, and the autumn air was refreshed. Although the chrysanthemums in the courtyard had been beaten by the autumn rain, they looked even more spirited with droplets of water hanging from them. The new flowers were larger and the fragrance stronger. The yard was covered with soil, and his feet were soaked through with mud. Now that he had the five hundred silver that Lei Tia brought back, he had more confidence that he could take care of this courtyard properly.
"Lei Tia, where are you?" Qin Mian looked at the open courtyard door and shouted. He knew that he would not go far.
Lei Tia's voice came from outside the courtyard wall, "Here."
Qin Mian turned and entered the kitchen, and saw that the bowls and chopsticks were all washed, and that the stove had been cleaned.
After breakfast, there were two more osmanthus trees in the yard. The flowers were lush and the fragrance of them assailed the nostrils.
Qin Mian walked over in surprise, "Where did you dig?"
"On the mountain." Lei Tia could tell from the chrysanthemum in the courtyard that he did not like the space in the courtyard.
"I'll plant it after eating."
Lei Tia washed his hands and sat down at the dining table. On the table were two bowls of noodles and two bowls of soup. Both of them had a lot of food, so their bowls were as big as bowls. However, Lei Tia's bowl was a lot bigger than Qin Mian's bowl.
Lei Tia sighed in his heart about his wife's skills. From the time the two of them had been living alone until now, basically the breakfast wouldn't be repeated in five days. Today's fried noodles with golden eggs, bright red pepper, green vegetables, leaves, you appetite.
After thinking about it for so long, his face remained expressionless.
However, Qin Mian could still see from his eyes that he liked today's breakfast. He was secretly smug: "Marry" me?
"The road is full of mud, so it's not convenient to go to town, so we might as well wait until the ground is dry. Today, he would go to the river and pick up some stones to cover the yard with. At the very least, he had to make a path that he could walk on."How about it?"
"Yes."
"The two osmanthus trees are next to the chrysanthemum seed. Leave a place to plant some kind of fruit tree." Qin Mian swept his eyes across the courtyard but he still felt that it was a little small. In his previous life, he had lived in the city for a long time. Forget it, I'll just wait until I earn more money before I expand.
"Fruit Tree, go find it in the mountains in the future." "Hurry up and eat." Lei Tia used his chopsticks and lightly tapped on his bowl.
While the two of them were eating, two people walked in from outside. A man and a woman, both less than thirty years old, with smiles on their faces.
Qin Mian recognized the woman. He was the woman who stuck his head out when they came to visit the house in the past, and lived next to them. Her man's name was Zhou Erhao.
"Lei Tia, my Lei Tia Family is in the process of being eaten." Er Gou's smile seemed to have been squeezed out, both sides of his eyes had a rather deep line drawn on them.
Qin Mian and Lei Tia stood up and invited the two in. They did not understand why they came.
Hur hur, sorry to bother you." Both of Zhou Erhao's hands were inside his sleeves, and his triangular eyes kept looking left and right, sca ing the entire area, before his gaze landed on the glossy fried noodles on the table, and he gulped down his saliva on the inside. )))??. ) He heard that the guests in Lei Tia Family were very generous, but he was delayed by the matters of the Yue Clan 3 when Lei Tia was building the house, and he was also delayed by the matter of his brother-in-law when was building the house. Zhou Erhao had always felt that it was unfortunate that he did not have the time to eat at his house, because he heard that his neighbor had made some movements last night, so he knew that the chance had come. Today, his wife had urged him to follow her. The breakfast of the villagers was basically porridge, snacks, pickled vegetables, and as expected, Lei Tia Family's days were flourishing. Not only were there eggs in the noodles, there was also quite a bit of oil in them and they would smell good.
Qin Mian instinctively disliked the two of them, so he gave Lei Tia a look and lowered his head to eat his noodles. After all, he couldn't be the one to stick his head into everything.
"Is there something you need?" Lei Tia was suspicious.
The second tycoon quickly waved his hand and said with concern, "It's fine, it's fine. Yesterday night, it sounded like you two were arguing. Our boss and I will come over to see if there is anything that we can help with." "From now on, our two families are neighbors. If you have anything you need, please don't mention it."
"Thank you very much." Lei Tia nodded, and said indifferently.
"Look at the style of the furniture in your house, " Zhou Erhao caressed the sofa, staring at his greedily like he was staring at a great beauty, "This thing is definitely not cheap right? In our village, only you and your family have this kind of thing."
Lei Tia frowned, and sat down to eat his noodles.
Qin Mian kicked him from under the table, "Thank you sister-in-law for being concerned about us, there's nothing going on between us. You can sit anywhere. The weather is getting colder and the food is getting cooler. I'll have to trouble the two of you to wait for us to finish our meal before we can accompany you to sit."
He and Lei Tia looked at each other before they slowed down in tacit understanding. After they slowly finished the noodles, they slowly drank the soup.
After Zhou Erhao and his wife sat together for a while, they felt bored and finally knew that they were unpopular. With a hollow laugh, they stood up and said a few words of greeting and left.
Qin Mian nudged Lei Tia with his knee, "These two don't look good.
Lei Tia glanced at him in confusion before finishing the bowl of soup in one go. Watching him drink, Lei Tia patiently waited for him to finish drinking and then consciously put away the bowl.
"Spice or hotpot for lunch?"
I still remember. Qin Mian cast a sidelong glance at him, "Alright."
After Lei Tia washed the dishes, the two of them planted the osmanthus trees and changed into their old shoes. Then, they went to the river bank to pick up the rocks.
The White River was one of the main water sources of the Qingshan Village, flowing from the west to the south of the village.
Beside the stone platform by the river, two women were washing clothes and chatting. The two were actually Zhou Cuihua and Faang Hongliu.
Qin Mian was a little surprised, he replied with a smile. Regardless of why the two of them changed their attitude, it wasn't a bad thing.
There were many large and small stones on the riverbank. After being washed away by the rain for a long time, they were round and smooth. There were also quite a few warm rocks. Soon, the two of them picked up half a basket.
"Boss, you're here." An unfriendly voice sounded from behind him.
Qin Mian's movements paused, and retreated behind Lei Tia without leaving a trace.
Lei Tia straightened his back, "Father."
Lei Daqiang snorted, and walked over with large strides, and shouted with his coarse voice: "You still know that I am your father! Do you know what attitude your wife has in front of me? "
Lei Tia's expression was normal as he casually raised his right hand, and the Goose Warm Stone in his hand accurately fell into the basket in the distance.
