Lei Tia silently sat there with his eyes fixed on Qin Mian, as if he hadn't heard what Lei Daqiang had said. There wasn't any response from him.

There was a sense of loss in Lei Daqiang's eyes, he had a faint feeling that he had lost this son of his.

"Yes, yes. Fifth brother, your big brother knows kung fu. With him here to send you off, mother will feel much more at ease. " Madam Du looked at Lei Xiangzhi lovingly.

Lei Xiangzhi was also overjoyed, "Big brother, sister-in-law, will it delay your business?"

"Don't worry, everything has been arranged at home. I've never been to the prefecture city before. Your elder brother said that he wanted to take me out for a walk, so it's just a convenient matter for me to give it to you. " Qin Mian looked at Lei Tia and said with a smile.

Lei Xiangzhi stood up and thanked him solemnly, "Thank you Big Brother and Big Sis. To be honest, our eldest sister-in-law told us that there were bandits in the past who would make trouble during the exam period. They told us not to be careless and even arranged four guards to escort us. With Big Bro and Big Sis here, little brother will feel more at ease. "

Lei Tia took out a bag and handed it over to him, "Here's ten taels of scattered silver, take it with you."

Lei Daqiang and Madam Du looked even more satisfied.

"Thank you, Big Brother." Lei Xiangzhi did not decline.

Lei Xiangren scratched his head. If he had read hard for a few more years, Lei Tia would have had to pay for it. His gaze inadvertently swept across Lei Dabao who was sniffling. His mind suddenly flashed with inspiration: Big Treasure was six years old this year. It was time for him to be enlightened.

His eyes turned and her stealthy gaze landed on Madam Du and Lei Daqiang, and then swept across them in an indistinct ma

er.

After finishing their business, Qin Mian and Lei Tia stood up and took their leave.

"Mother." Lei Xiangren walked to Madam Du's side, just as he was about to speak, he closed his mouth again. He thought to himself that it was not appropriate to speak now, if something bad happened and it affected the performance of the fifth brother in the examination, it would be a failure.

"What is it?" Madam Du frowned. This son of her was getting more and more outrageous. Yesterday, Ol 'Three had told him that Ol' Two had found work in the town, but because she was lazy, he was chased out and hadn't brought back a single cent.

"Nothing, I'm just calling you." Lei Xiangren smiled mischievously as he went over to her side to massage her back.

Qin Mian and Lei Tia didn't know that another storm was coming to the old house soon.

The two of them chatted as they walked back.

"The house has changed quite a bit." Qin Mian casually kicked a pebble in the middle of the road into the bushes by the side.

The pigsty and chicken coop in the yard of the old house were gone. It must have been moved to the back of the house. There were four red brick buildings in the yard, two opposite each other, with a patio in the middle for people to go in and out. I heard that he gave Old Lei Family a idea a few days ago to earn some money and made a small profit. Lei Daqiang then used this money to build these four rooms. Lei Xiangyi and his wife took over a new house, the one originally owned by the Madam Wei. At least Madam Wei did not have to stay in the same room as him.

Lei Daqiang was extremely pleased with himself in the village, because he was the only one who had two daughter-in-laws. If he wanted to spend the night in Madam Du's room, he would go to Madam Du's room, and if he wanted to go to Madam Wei's room, he would go to Madam Wei's room. From time to time, the two women would fight over him. When he heard the men in the village teasing him that he was going to enjoy the good fortune, he became extremely proud of himself.

Of the other three, one of them was preparing for Lei Xianglee's wedding, the other two were big and small, co

ected to each other, the big one was for Lei Xiangzhi's wedding, and the small one was Lei Xiangzhi's study.

Lei Tia said indifferently: "As long as they don't provoke us."

"Of course." Qin Mian admired himself for thinking of marrying Lei Daqiang one more wife. Look, for such a long period of time, Lei Daqiang and the Madam Du did not obstruct their view.

Lei Tia liked to look at his bright eyes. He held his hand and walked home in the sunset.

On the day they agreed to set off, Qin Mian and Lei Tia woke up early and casually cooked a meal. After packing up their bags, they put on the carriage and instructed the three of them to guard the door. While they were not at home, it was best to not let anyone in. Qin Mian was still mainly on guard against the people at the old residence, especially the four people of Madam Du, Lei Daqiang, Lei Xiangren and the Zhao Clan.

The spring air was chilly, the wind was blowing, and his face was ice-cold. Qin Mian lamented that it was indeed not easy for the ancient students to learn. He understood that the Prefecture Overseer was the Prefecture Overseer for the Prefecture Overseer examination. Therefore, the students of the counties in the same prefecture had to rush to the Prefecture Overseer for the examinations. The Zhaoyang County was relatively close, and it only needed two to three days to arrive. It took four or five days for a student from a faraway county to ride in a carriage.

It was still light in the east, but it would be bright when they reached town.

Lei Xiangzhi also woke up early and was eating his Egg Fried Rice. The rest of the family rose and sat by his side.

Seeing that his big brother and big sister-in-law had arrived so early, Lei Xiangzhi was very touched. He quickly finished his fried rice, picked up his bag and got on the carriage.

The carriage travelled under the gaze of the people from Lei Family and headed towards the town.

When they arrived at the town, the three carriages arranged by the academy had already arrived. The four tall and big guards had also all arrived. Another man in his early forties, with a scholarly face and a short beard, stood beside the carriage at the front. He wore a green scholar's robe, and had his hands behind his back.

Lei Xiangzhi jumped down from the carriage and quickly walked towards the middle-aged man, respectfully bowing, "This student greets Teacher."

"Mm, no need to be so polite." The middle aged man's gaze landed on Qin Mian and Lei Tia, he was shocked by their extraordinary temperament and secretly guessed their identities, "May I know who these two are?"

Lei Xiangzhi introduced: "Sir, these two are my brother Lei Tia and my sister-in-law Qin Mian. Brother, sister-in-law, this is Teacher Gong. "

"Greetings, Mr. Gong." Qin Mian and Lei Tia cupped their hands and bowed together.

Teacher Gong understood. As a teacher, it wasn't as if he didn't hear anything from outside the window. Lei Tia and Qin Mian were a famous couple in the vicinity, and with their famous restaurant, he knew that it was not the first time he met the two of them.

Lei Xiangzhi said: "Teacher, my brother and sister-in-law will learn some martial arts and send me to the prefecture. I wonder if it would be convenient?"

"Oh?" Teacher Gong was a bit surprised and immediately cupped his hands. "Of course it's convenient. As such, all of my other students will be basked in the light as well. This old man thanks the two of you on their behalf. "

Qin Mian dodged to the side, raised his hand and said, "Teacher is too polite. We should be thanking Teacher for nurturing our younger brother. "

"Hehe, you're being too serious. It's just a matter of duty." Teacher Gong was very amiable as they chatted and laughed.

After waiting for a while, the other eleven students participating in the Palace Examinations arrived one after another. Among them were Qu Zongwen, Bu Qingyun and Ling Qimu. Zhao Tian and Wang Shangwen also got along well with Lei Xiangzhi, and they had gone to Leisurely Dwelling House two days ago.

Don't look at Qu Zongwen's amicable look, he was very courteous, and he cupped his hands politely towards Lei Tia and Qin Mian, "Greetings, big brother Lei, sister-in-law Lei."

Bu Qingyun and the others did not expect to see them, and also came over to greet them.

"Brother Lei, why are your elder brother and elder sister-in-law here?" Bu Qingyun whispered.

"My elder brother and elder sister-in-law are worried about me, so they sent me to the prefecture." Lei Xiangzhi was truly happy from the bottom of his heart, but he was still proud from the bottom of his heart, because no one else had any relatives to send them off.

Wang Shangwen was only fourteen or fifteen years old, but he was very experienced and mature. He curiously looked at Qin Mian and Lei Tia, then clasped his hands and said: "If that's the case, then I want to bask in the light as well. "Thank you big brother Lei and sister-in-law Lei."

"You're welcome." Qin Mian was already immune to the two words "eldest sister-in-law". Being called this by a stranger who had only met him for the first time did not make him feel uncomfortable at all.

He glanced at Lei Tia, and decided that if there was a chance in the future, he would take in a little brother as well. Thinking of that scene, he tried his best to suppress the smile in his eyes.

Lei Tia felt a chill on his back and looked at his wife doubtfully.

"Alright, it's getting late. Everyone get in the car." Teacher Gong said.

There were three carriages, and each carriage had four people who were relatively more relaxed. They would be able to sleep while leaning on their luggage.

Lei Xiangzhi saw an orderly bed mat and quilt on top of Qin Mian's carriage, and knew that his sister-in-law would probably sleep inside. He was his brother-in-law after all, so it wasn't good for him to be alone with Qin Mian. In addition, he didn't want to be a maverick and so he sat on the carriage arranged by the academy with his other schoolmates.

Lei Tia only carried Qin Mian. Qin Mian laid on the sleeping mat in the carriage, covered himself with a blanket and fell asleep while the carriage swayed.

The sun was high in the sky as the carriage slowly stopped by the roadside.

Lei Tia pulled open the carriage's curtain and saw that Qin Mian was still sleeping. He got into the carriage and carried the person up with him, "My wife, wake up. If you sleep too much, you won't be able to sleep at night. "

Qin Mian slowly opened his eyes and yawned. He sat up swiftly. Why did it stop? "

"It's noon."

Qin Mian wiped his face, opened the curtains and saw that the three carriages had stopped, the students all got off the carriages and stood by the side of the road eating their rations in the sun.

Lei Xiangzhi, Qu Zongwen, Zhao Tian and a few others stood together.

Qin Mian opened his bag and took out a large apple and a small jar of homemade beef mince, then handed it to Lei Tia, "For Fifth Brother."

Lei Tia nodded and returned to the horse carriage to eat lunch with Qin Mian after giving him the apple and beef mince.

"What is this?" Bu Qingyun stared at the small clay pot and asked curiously. He had a premonition that he must be eating.

Lei Xiangzhi first stuffed the apple into his sleeve, then laughed: "You guys are rich now. This is beef mince made by my elder sister-in-law, it's perfect for the meal. "

He walked to Teacher Gong's side and said, "Teacher, if you don't mind, please have a taste."

"Alright." Teacher Gong smiled and said, "Your brother and sister-in-law's restaurant is well-known for its good taste. The beef mince your sister-in-law makes definitely tastes good."

Lei Xiangzhi opened the jar, and everyone saw that there was an exquisite bamboo spoon inside, they felt that Lei Xiangzhi's sister-in-law was very meticulous, and after a whiff of the rich, attractive fragrance, they all couldn't help but gulp down their saliva.

Qu Zongwen came closer, "So fragrant!"

Lei Xiangzhi first scooped up two spoonfuls of beef mince and smeared it onto Teacher Gong's sesame seed cake. Then, he scooped up a spoonful of beef mince and placed it on top of each of the students' bun or cake, and even divided some of it between the two coachmen and the four guards.

Seeing this, Teacher Gong nodded his head secretly.
