136 – Qian Shi Gives Birth

In the evening, the old man and old lady Deng lived in the guest room on the first floor. They originally wanted to help Qin Mian and Lei Tie take their children for the night, but they were declined. It was not good for the two old people to wake up at night since they were too old.

The old man and old lady Deng also knew that they were not young anymore and had no perseverance. This was also the children’s show of filial piety.

After staying in Leisurely Farmhouse for three days, the old man and old lady Deng insisted on leaving and would come again for the babies’ one-month-old ceremony.

Lei Tie and Qin Mian did not persuade them to stay, because two days later was the day Lei Xiangli got married. They prepared two jars of medicinal wine, two jars of Glimmer of Paradise Wine, and 20 jin of vermicelli for the two old people, and dispatched Lei-Qin Le to take them back to Deng Village by carriage.

In such a small village, the villagers knew about the old man and old lady Deng lived in Leisurely Farmhouse for a few days. Naturally, Lei Daqiang also got wind of this. At the thought that Lei Tie and Qin Mian were so kind to the Deng family and so bad to their own father, he was angry and jealous. However, when he thought of Du Shi’s fate, he absolutely dared not to act rashly and blindly.

Du Shi had invited several doctors to check her throat. The doctors’ diagnosis concluded that it was caused by shock and she possibly could recover in two days, or she would never speak again. Moreover, Du Shi usually did too many bad things, her ‘’words’’ might not be believable. Therefore, the Lei family members, including the several who had separated, did not associate Du Shi’s muteness with Lei Tie. Although, from the bottom of her heart, Du Shi thought that it was Lei Tie’s doing. Lei Daqiang didn’t think so. He was aware that Lei Tie knew martial arts, but he wouldn’t make Du Shi mute without causing trauma, right? Wasn’t that a Daoist Immortal?

The matter of Du Shi becoming mute was concluded without a conclusion.

Lei Xiangli’s wedding ceremony was held at the old house. Owing to Lei Xiangzhi’s status as a Xiucai, Du Shi and Lei Daqiang both were more anxious to keep up appearances than before. Therefore, this time, they were not too stingy for Lei Xiangli’s wedding. On top of that, Lei Xiangli had a lot of private money in his hand, so the wedding ceremony was very lively. As the joyous firecracker sounded approximately ten times, the joyous money¹ were also scattered three times. All the children in the village went crazy as they snatched a lot of copper coins.

Qin Mian and Lei Tie both attended the wedding banquet in person and conferred a 5 taels silver of money gift and congratulatory gifts worth about 5 silver taels. Compared with Lei Xiaoya’s washing-third ceremony and one-month-old ceremony, the villagers vaguely discovered: Qin Mian and Lei Tie wanted to keep a distance from Lei Daqiang, Du Shi, and Wei Shi, and they still relatively cared about this brother, Lei Xiangli.

After the bride’s homecoming on the third day, Lei Xiangli and Sun Shi moved to their new home. Lei Xiangli’s new home was next door to Lei Xiangyi’s. It just so happened that the two brothers were partners.

When all was said and done, they couldn’t ignore their mother. Lei Xiangli and Lei Xiangyi discussed with each other and bought a maid named Xiao-Cui to take care of her especially.

It was unknown whether Lei Xiangren and Zhao Shi wanted to keep up with others or something was going on, but they were two days behind them and also bought a teenage maid named Zhu’er. When Zhao Shi had nothing to do, she took along Zhu’er to drop by or strolled around the village, as though she feared that others would not know that she had a maid.

Qin Mian somehow felt that Zhao Shi might shoot herself in the foot one day.

He had no time and interest in other people’s affairs. After a few days of disappearance, White Spot and Golden Fur finally came back.

Qin Mian and Lei Tie were surprised to find that there was vital Qi in White Spot’s dantian. In other words, White Spot had become a demon cultivator. There were also some weak spiritual Qi in Golden Fur’s body.

It was unknown whether these two had a happy encounter or something during the days of their departure. Although Qin Mian and White Spot could usually communicate with each other, White Spot couldn’t speak after all; he couldn’t ask it.

In the end, it was a good turn of event. Qin Mian decided to send White Spot and Golden Fur to the space for cultivation when there was a chance. The current space was full of spiritual Qi, more suitable for cultivation than the outside world.

White Spot and Golden Fur were strongly interested in Yuanyuan and Manman.

At first, Qin Mian and Lei Tie didn’t dare to leave them alone with Yuanyuan and Manman. Later, Qin Mian and Lei Tie discovered that these two animals were aware of their guarding against them and began to deliberately avoid Yuanyuan and Manman. The two men instead let go of their worry and observed for nearly ten days. They confirmed that White Spot and Golden Fur had no malice toward Yuanyuan and Manman. These two animals even looked at the two little ones with very gentle eyes. Therefore, the two men completely rest assured. Sometimes, when they had to leave, they let White Spot and Golden Fur stay by the crib.

Due to the appearance of Yuanyuan and Manman, the new shop’s opening was postponed for an indefinite time. Qin Mian didn’t mind at all. He always remembered these: there is no end to earn money and family is the most important thing.

When the couple was taking care of Yuanyuan and Manman, they discussed to take the opportunity to deal with the grove in the garden. Since Leisurely Farmhouse had planted too many things, the grove had blocked too much sunshine. Qin Mian wanted to cut down the trees surrounding the grove and the trees that were too high, and transform the grove into a small amusement park. When Yuanyuan and Manman grew up, there would be a place to play.

Today, while Qin Mian and Lei Tie were discussing which trees should be cut down at the edge of the grove, Lei-Qin Shun came to report in a hurry, “Eldest Master and Little Master, Third-gongzi has just come to report a good news; Third-gongzi’s son has been born.”
