The original wife who died young and dressed as the villain regent

Lin Xi said vaguely: "It's not an important matter. It's too humiliating to ask you. It's not important. You and the children will be at home tomorrow at noon. Get something to eat by yourself. I'll come back in the afternoon to make hot pot for you."

Shen Chen still frowned and looked at Lin Xi with his dark eyes.

Lin Xi felt a little guilty for no reason.

No, what is she guilty of?

She didn't do anything to offend Shen Chen, nor did she make Shen Chen's head green.

Yes, just ignore it!

Lin Xi coughed twice and stood up, "What, I'm sleepy, it's time to go to bed, you should go to bed early."

Shen Chen stared at her and hummed deeply.

Lin Xi immediately turned around and ran back to the room.

Shen Chen sat there for a while, pinched his fingertips, and frowned deeper.

What kind of help, why would you rather ask Wang Shou's gang than him?

He doesn't know yet.

No wonder Wang Shou didn't bother him anymore these days.

Why not ask him for help?

…

The next day, Lin Xi had breakfast at home and then took Old Uncle Li's ox cart to the county. She brought more than a dozen taels with her this time. It was almost noon when she arrived at Fulai Tower, which was a busy time for Fulai Tower.

While still at the door, Lin Xi smelled the smell of hot pot inside.

The base material is indeed similar to that of Ke Yun Lou, but it is indescribably strange.

Lin Xi looked at the plaque on Fulai Building and walked in. The first floor was already full and lively. There was a table not far away from the stairway with a lot of condiments on it. The layout was the same. Similarity of Ke Yun Tower.

Suddenly Wang Yaozu's voice sounded: "Miss Lin."

Lin Xi looked over and saw Wang Yaozu coming out of the back kitchen, which aroused the thoughts of many guests.

As he approached, Wang Yaozu smiled warmly and said, "Miss Lin, it's been a long time since I last saw you. How have you been lately?"

Lin Xi glanced at the guests eating hot pot on the first floor and pointedly said: "I'm okay, but Mr. Wang is in charge of you. It seems that he is really busy during this period. How can he notice other people's houses when he is so busy? The movement in the restaurant is really awesome."

Wang Yaozu said: "It's a coincidence. I have a distant relative who saw this way of eating in other places. He thought I was a restaurant owner, so he brought him over to join me. I can't say no to him. I just tried it and I didn’t expect so many people to like it.”

Lin Xi said: "That's a coincidence. Does Ke Yunlou also have a distant relative like Manager Wang?"

"I don't understand what Miss Lin means. We are all doing business together. There is no reason why one can do it and who cannot do it, right?" Wang Yaozu said with a smile.

Lin Xi somewhat admired Wang Yaozu for being able to lie so calmly and calmly.

What Wang Yaozu said was right. Hot pot was not Ke Yunlou's personal preference. He could do it whenever he wanted. Publicly, she had nothing to say.

"I heard that Fulailou's hot pot is really good. Mr. Wang, I wonder if I have a seat now?" Lin Xi said.

Manager Wang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Lin Xi.

After a moment, he smiled and said: "Of course there is. Miss Lin, there is no room on the first floor. How about moving to a private room on the second floor? I, Wang, will accompany Miss Lin personally."

"That's a lot of trouble for the king." Lin Xi said.

Wang Yaozu said it was no trouble, led Lin Xi to a private room upstairs, asked the waiter to make tea, and said: "What kind of soup base does Miss Lin want to eat? What kind of dishes do you want to eat?"

"I don't understand, Mr. Wang, please keep an eye on it. Fortunately, I brought enough money for today's work, so I'm not afraid of running out of money to spend." Lin Xi said calmly.

Wang Yaozu called the waiter to whisper a few words, and the waiter went out.

The private room became quiet.

Wang Yaozu looked at Lin Xi and said, "Miss Lin, I didn't expect that you would be interested in visiting Wang's shop."

"Look what Manager Wang said, I'm just a commoner in Linxi. I'm flattered that Manager Wang can treat me specially."

"If Miss Lin thinks this way, I'm afraid the county captain won't know what to do."

"What's the meaning?"

Lin Xi raised his head and met Wang Yaozu's eyes.

Wang Yaozu seemed a little surprised and said: "Miss Lin, don't you know? Your husband-in-law has a close relationship with the county captain. Even the county captain treats you two with great courtesy, so naturally Wang will not dare to offend. "

Lin Xi thought about Wang Yaozu's words.

Did he mistakenly think that Shen Chen was someone with a backing?

"Master Wang is joking, my husband-in-law is just a hunter, I don't deserve what you say."

"Miss Lin, you are being too modest."

Wang Yaozu smiled slightly.

Lin Xi frowned secretly.

Soon, the waiter brought the hot pot with the soup base, as well as the side dishes that had been prepared.

Lin Xi didn't ask for any seasoning, and frowned even more when she smelled the hot pot.

It was tomato-based, but why did it smell as weird as what she smelled outside?

"Miss Lin, what's wrong?" Wang Yaozu asked kindly and caringly.

Lin Xi picked up the chopsticks and said: "People of the bright side don't speak secretly. Manager Wang, I think you already know very well that it was me who proposed the hot pot in Keyun Tower. Should I say that you have a big heart, or what? You just Aren't you afraid that if I come here this time, I can taste how your hot pot ingredients are made? Then go back to Keyunlou and let Keyunlou follow suit?"

Wang Yaozu showed no surprise and said: "If Miss Lin can taste it, it's up to you. However, I, Fulailou, also have a unique secret recipe. Miss Lin, you can't taste it."

Lin Xi glanced at him, picked up a chopstick of food and ate it.

For a moment, Lin Xi's eyes narrowed slightly.

Wang Yaozu had been paying attention to her. Seeing this, he sat up slightly and asked kindly: "How is it?"

Lin Xi clenched her chopsticks and spat onto the plate beside her without changing her expression, "I'm so sorry, I can't eat this dish. I used to get rashes all over my body when I ate it. It was very dangerous."

The smile on Wang Yaozu's lips deepened, and he said slowly: "Miss Lin, I know your cooking skills are very good. Sometimes your skills are not as good as others, which is normal. How about, my Fulailou's unique secret recipe is not the same as your Keyunlou's, right? ?”

Lin Xi was silent for a few seconds, "Indeed."

Wang Yaozu said: "You are a smart man. I, Wang, also know why you are here. But, Miss Lin, are you really sure that you must help Zhao Dequan?"

Lin Xi looked at him, "What does Mr. Wang want to say?"

"What Wang said before is still valid. If Miss Lin is willing to come to my Fulai Building, Wang will definitely treat her generously."

"Is it because of me as a person or because of my husband-in-law?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly froze.

The smile on Wang Yaozu's face also disappeared little by little, and after a while he said: "Miss Lin, you are a smart person. I, Wang, have always had a good relationship with the government, and I have a lot of money. I can give you what you want. Come with me. Business is beneficial to Miss Lin without any harm, isn't it?"

Lin Xi understood.

Wang Yaozu mistakenly believed that Shen Chen had connections in the government.

Not only does he want her to help him make money, but he also wants Shen Chen to be more visible to the government.

She said: "If nothing else, I admire your ability to daydream, Manager Wang."
