He nodded his head heavily and said, "Thank you, Miss. I am grateful that Miss is willing to give me this opportunity. Then I will not disturb Miss now. Thank you, Miss!"
Before leaving, Miao Jiang once again expressed her gratitude. Qin Di didn't say much, she just nodded and watched the man leave, slowly disappearing from her sight.

"Miss, the master and his wife are here."
It was dark, and the lights outside had been lit. The lanterns held by Okra and Chunxing also illuminated a large area of flowers and plants.
As the maid's voice fell, several stars and lights not far away became closer and brighter.
"Dil, sit down, sit down, mother and your father can come over."
As soon as Qin Di stood up, she heard Lanxi's voice over there. They were walking very fast, as if they had something important to do.
She narrowed her eyes, even though Lan Qian said so, Qin He would never be so careless about rules.
She waited until Lan Qian and Qin He arrived, and then bowed respectfully. When she raised her head after saluting, she realized that the nanny was actually following Qin He...
"Dad, Mom, why did you come here?"
As he spoke, he gestured for the two of them to sit down. Qin Di turned his eyes and waved his hands. Okra and Chun Xing over there immediately replaced the tea and cakes from before, and placed a cup of brewed tea in front of everyone.
.
The tea was rich and fragrant, and a mist filled the air as soon as it was opened. Qin He nodded with satisfaction.
There was a smile in her eyes, and it could be seen from Lan Qian's expression that it was probably a good thing, and she wouldn't come here to accuse her.
Smiling, "Dil, why didn't you talk about such a big deal today during dinner?"
Lan Qian's face was full of pride. Qin Dixu could also see it, but she still smiled softly, "What on earth did mother say?"
Seeing Qin Di's behavior, Lan Qian immediately nudged Qin He with her elbow, signaling him to speak too and not just listen.
"Ahem" he said, "It's just the locust issue. How did you solve it? Why didn't you tell us about such a big thing? We all had dinner together today. Why didn't you tell us about it at that good time?
It’s so bad that your father and your mother only found out after hearing other people’s words.”
They seemed to be complaining that their daughter did not let them know this first-hand news first, so it was no wonder that they came running over in such a furious manner.
Fortunately, what Qin Di did was a good thing, and Qin He should be more polite. But if it was a bad thing, wouldn't he have to scold him right in front of him?
The corner of her mouth curled up. After hearing what Qin He said, Qin Di also held her chin, and then said slowly, "Didn't daddy say that he wants his daughter to learn etiquette well? Isn't it the most basic etiquette to eat and sleep without saying anything? Dad, it's hard for me.
Don’t you forget it?”
I thought Qin Di was going to make excuses, but she didn't expect Qin He to lose face with just such a frivolous word.
A heavy "cough" sound showed that Qin He was really choking on the tea he was drinking.
She quickly patted Qin He on the back. Although Lan Xi wanted to express that Qin Di was right, she still had to help her master calm down first.
"How is the master? Are you okay, master? Don't drink tea in such a hurry. It's better now. If you choked, you have to teach me a long lesson, master!"
Before Qin He could say anything, Lan Qian spoke out to suppress her. Qin He was so embarrassed that he almost wanted to crawl into a crack in the ground.
Pretending to be calm, he straightened his back. The words he just wanted to reprimand Qin Di were completely abandoned by Lan Qian's words.
To calm down for himself, the man controlled his temper and put a smile on his face.
"Well, Dier, if you have done something, you can still say it while eating. After all, if you do such a big thing, you have done it. At least you should tell us so that we can know.
?
Think about it, so many people know it first, but we, as your parents, don’t know it yet. If you tell me this, don’t you make others laugh? Anyway, you should discuss it with your father and mother about what you do in the future, even if you just know
It’s okay to say yes, you know?”
Still in an admonishing tone, Qin Di's mouth started to murmur, and then he said "oh" heavily, "I know, daddy, I'll try my best next time.
But after all, I was too anxious about things today, so I didn’t have time to talk. During the meal, people did not speak for etiquette reasons.
Originally, my daughter wanted to say something after dinner, but daddy, you left too fast, and you didn’t even wait for my mother and I to finish eating, so you can’t blame your daughter, right?"
Seemingly aggrieved, Qin Di lowered his head and looked at her from time to time, looking aggrieved.
"...
That's it, forget it this time. Dad was also at fault, but it won't happen next time, you know? Fortunately, you avoided the locusts, otherwise there would be no harvest this year.
Hey, if I had known I wouldn't plant it this year, it would be great to rent it out early..." Qin He wanted to say something else, but Lan Xi stopped him.
"Master, what you said is wrong, don't say it, don't say it.
Isn't that okay? Besides, Dier has worked hard and painstakingly to manage those fields. You should praise him instead of saying such depressing words.
Just tell me, how serious are the disasters this year? In many places, even the richest people have a hard time surviving it. Let me tell you, if the fields like Dier are planted well and correctly, no matter what, we can’t possibly survive.
I will starve to death!"
Pulling on the corner of Qin He's clothes, after Lanxi finished speaking, she immediately tugged on the corner of Qin He's clothes a few times, and then whispered in Qin He's ear, "Master, didn't we say that when we came here?
Do you talk nicely?
Besides, this is a good thing in the first place. People outside say that our Dier is very capable, so how come you are so successful that he fails to succeed?"
Maybe because he knew that what he said was indeed a bit harsh and a bit too much, Qin He immediately nodded to express that he understands, understands.
Then he turned to look at Qin Di and put on a slightly better smile, "Okay Di'er, you did a good job this time, but you still have to think more about it in the future, okay?
Of course, dad is doing it for the sake of the family, so I’ll just treat it as an exercise for you this time..."
She still wanted to say something, but Lanxi probably saw something was wrong with her posture, so she immediately pulled Qin He and stood up, "Okay, okay, Di'er, that's all. You go to bed early. Mom and dad will go back."
.
Let's go, let's go quickly, don't say anything anymore." He pulled Qin He tightly. Qin He probably didn't say enough. He sat on the chair for a while and wanted to say more, but in the end he was unwilling to do so.
