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

At that time, Lin Xi and Shen Chen got up early in the morning and started working.

Because on this day, every household in the countryside will worship the Kitchen God and pray for a good harvest and adequate food and clothing in the coming year.

Although Lin Xi didn't believe in this, she still felt that this matter should be respected, so she prepared the sacrifices early, and Shen Chen set up the altar table in the east of the courtyard. The two of them simply bowed and it was done.

Of course, you have to keep it there all day and wait until tomorrow to take it away.

It was at this time that Zhao Dequan came.

Lin Xi was surprised: "Mr. Zhao, what time is it? Why are you here so early?"

Shen Chen knew that Zhao Dequan came to Lin Xi mostly for business reasons, so he left space for them and went into the kitchen to make breakfast. After these few days of practice, his skills have improved a lot and he can do slimming. It's meat porridge, Lin Xi likes it very much.

Zhao Dequan smiled and said hello as usual, then put down the gift he brought and praised Shen Chen for being so considerate to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi didn't necessarily like to hear other words, but he really liked hearing words that praised Shen Chen.

"That's right, my husband is naturally the best."

"However," the voice changed, Lin Xi did not follow Zhao Dequan's trick, and said: "Mr. Zhao, we have known each other for a long time. Just tell us what you are here for."

"Look at what you said, Zhao is not the master who doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. This time, there is nothing important, and he came here specifically to announce the good news." Zhao Dequan said.

Lin Xi was confused: "Good news?"

"That's right!" Zhao Dequan raised his eyebrows with joy and couldn't hide his pride and said: "Miss Lin, you are really awesome. The spicy hot pot ingredients you make are very popular! Every day, there are many people queuing up outside Keyun Building, waiting to make a reservation. Even if you want to grab it, you can't grab it. With it, our business in Keyun Building is better than before. The most important thing is that Fulai Building was finally suppressed by us!"

Lin Xi understood.

This was Wang Yaozu's loss. Ke Yun Tower's business greatly exceeded that of Fulai Tower, so Zhao Dequan was finally proud and proud in front of Wang Yaozu and was extremely happy.

Lin Xi smiled slightly and said a few words of congratulations.

"There are no big things, but there are still small things. Miss Lin, have you prepared the new hot pot ingredients?" Zhao Dequan was proud, glanced at Lin Xi's seemingly injured foot, and asked worriedly.

What Lin Xi didn't know was that Zhao Dequan had been sending people to pay attention to her situation in Chenyang Village.

Therefore, he knew that there was something about his aunt coming to make trouble; he also knew that Lin Xi had been staying at home for the past two days and was limping a little when he showed up.

Zhao De was not interested in Lin Xi's family's private affairs, nor did he want to pay attention to them.

But if Lin Xi is really injured, it will affect their business!

The hot pot ingredients in Touxian are also sold out.

Lin Xi understood. Zhao Dequan met Lin Xi's eyes and laughed.

Lin Xi didn't care and called out to Shen Chen, "Those hot pot ingredients in the cabinet are what Manager Zhao wants. Shen Chen, please help get them to Manager Zhao's carriage."

Shen Chen hummed and went back to get it without saying a word.

Zhao Dequan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "No need to trouble Mr. Shen, Xiao Liu!"

The waiter waiting outside came in, and Zhao Dequan pointed at Xiao Liu to get the hot pot ingredients.

Shen Chen didn't let him enter the kitchen, but told him to wait outside and brought out hot pot ingredients for him.

Xiao Liu was a little scared when facing Shen Chen. After receiving the hot pot ingredients, he hurried over and didn't dare to stay longer.

Zhao Dequan's purpose of coming here was achieved, he paid a few words of concern to Lin Xi, paid for the hot pot ingredients, and then said goodbye.

On the way back, Xiao Liu was still driving.

Zhao Dequan looked at the hot pot ingredients, nodded with satisfaction, and then sighed.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped abruptly. Zhao Dequan threw himself forward due to inertia in the carriage, and his head hit the wall of the carriage. The pain made his face change, and he said angrily: "What's going on?!"

There was a lot of noise outside, including Xiao Liu's voice and the voices of a man and a woman.

Zhao Dequan lifted the car curtain and looked out, and saw a woman and a middle-aged man. Both of them looked miserable and poor.

At this moment, they couldn't help but apologize, as if they were afraid that the collision would offend the master in the car.

Xiao Liu was just afraid of facing Shen Chen, but not afraid of others. He said angrily: "How do you see the road? Can't you see such a big carriage?! If something happens to the people in charge of us, you don't have enough brains to apologize. !”

The two men apologized in panic.

Seeing how pitiful they were, Zhao Dequan took a deep breath and said, "Okay, don't worry about it, let's go."

When the two people heard this, they knelt down and thanked him.

Xiao Liu snorted: "It's because of the kindness of our bosses. If we bump into each other next time, you will be left with nothing to eat!"

After that, Xiao Liu turned around to ask Zhao Dequan for instructions and continued to drive away.

The two people behind kowtowed a few more times, then straightened up after hearing the carriage go away, and stared motionlessly at Zhao Dequan's carriage as it drove away.

After a long time, the middle-aged man among them said: "I can see clearly, the person sitting inside is the manager of Keyun Tower in the county. I heard that the business is very big, and he is making a lot of money every day these days!"

The woman got up from the ground, her face gloomy.

The middle-aged man's next words made her face look even more ugly: "He came to Chenyang Village to find your niece, right?"

The woman almost crushed the handkerchief in her hand and said, "I asked many people, and they all said that the little bitch has a close relationship with Ke Yunlou in the county."

"Then she must be very rich too?" the middle-aged man asked.

The woman's expression changed, and she said reluctantly: "I guess so."

The middle-aged man said: "Then go find her again and don't forget what you have to do."

The woman said bitterly: "I won't go! You don't know how rude that little bitch is to me! Besides, she is just a bastard and she is not my sister's biological daughter. Why should I try to please her??"

"But you said that your relatives here are rich, so I promised you to come back." The middle-aged man stared at her and said, "If you don't want to go, fine, I'm not forcing you anyway. But if I don't have money, Then I can only treat Xiao Lian..."

The woman's expression changed drastically, and she rushed to fight the middle-aged man: "Xu Dongwen! If you dare to take advantage of my little pity, don't blame me for falling out with you!"

But the middle-aged man pushed her to the ground and said disdainfully: "You sold your daughter yourself in the first place! Your daughter's body and deed are in my hands, and I can do with her whatever I want! I'll give you one last chance. , if you can’t pay me back, you won’t be able to live well!”

"you you you……"

The woman glared at him angrily, slapping the floor and crying loudly, "Why was I so blind in the first place that I believed your lies and followed you away! Xu Dongwen, you are not going to die well!"

This was of no use to the middle-aged man. He looked at the woman and sneered, rolled his eyes and turned around to leave.

The woman watched him go away angrily, so she had to stop crying, wiped away her tears and spat.

After a while, the woman looked in the direction of Chenyang Village, suddenly had an idea, and immediately got up from the ground and left in a hurry.
