Because Lin Xi offered money, Old Uncle Li readily agreed.

These days, as long as there is money to be made, no one will hesitate.

He drove the bullock cart to the place mentioned by Lin Xi. He was very surprised when he saw what Lin Xi bought. He looked at Lin Xi several times, as if she had finally changed her mind and was a good person.

On the way back, Lin Xi was also baptized by the looks of those aunties.

So far, Lin Xi has not realized the impact.

It wasn't until he returned to the village that he was seen by countless villagers and learned that a lot of things on the oxcart were bought by Lin Xi, and all the villagers were in an uproar.

"Oh my god! How much will it cost?"

"Does Shen Chen know? If I buy so many things, my family will scold me to death!"

"That's right! What a waste! How much money does Shen Chen have to make his wife happy?"

A large number of people followed, and Lin Xi felt ashamed when she faced the strange looking eyes of the villagers.

Shen Chen had already known about the movements of the villagers in advance, and when he came out, he happened to catch up with Lin Xi's return.

The four little dumplings behind him opened their eyes wide when they saw Lin Xi jumping off the bullock cart and waving for Shen Chen to pass.

Erbao rubbed his eyes: "Did I see it wrong??"

Si Bao said softly: "Tang! Tangtang!"

Dabao said: "Dad has something to do in the county today and doesn't have time to buy candy. Let's talk about it next time." In the past, when Shen Chen went to the county, he would bring them snacks from time to time.

Sanbao was confused: "Isn't that right?"

Dabao and Erbao were stunned for a moment, and then they saw Lin Xi bringing a bag of candies wrapped in oil paper. She gave the candy to Sibao, touched her head and said, "I bought this for you as a reward for being at home today."

Si Bao was a little at a loss.

But Lin Xi didn't give her a chance to refuse, so he put it in her hand and left.

After a few seconds of silence, Erbao said dryly: "Eat, why don't you eat? She bought it on her own initiative, we didn't ask her for it."

Not far away, Shen Chen went to unload the truck, and Lin Xi also helped. Together with Old Uncle Li, the move was completed in three trips.

Lin Xi had already paid the money in advance, and Uncle Li left after saying a few words.

The surrounding villagers did not dare to look at Shen Chen's bustle, and when they saw this, they dispersed and soon became quiet.

Back home, Lin Xi looked at the things in the courtyard, rolled up her sleeves and said, "Dabao, you go and play first, but don't go too far. Come back after dinner is ready."

The four Dabaos looked at each other, and finally looked at Shen Chen.

Shen Chen nodded, and the eyes of the little dumplings who had been bored all day brightened up and they ran out happily, not caring about Lin Xi.

Lin Xi then said to Shen Chen: "I didn't have time yesterday. The things you bought from the county haven't been packed yet, but they are all packed now. I also ordered a few jars when I was in the county. After they are delivered tomorrow, they will be ready." Pour the rice noodles into it so that it can be stored for a long time without getting insects."

After saying that, she pointed to the things in the yard, "All those pots and pans must be washed before use. I'll wash them, and you put away all the broken ones in the kitchen. There are also a few horses in the house, where Dabao and the others are sitting. It's not stable anymore, so I put it away and used a new one. Maybe the old one can still be sold."

Thinking of the pork she bought, Lin Xi quickly found it and processed it first.

After taking two steps out, Lin Xi noticed that Shen Chen was motionless and looked back at him: "What are you doing standing there? Move quickly. The two of us can clean up faster together."

Don't expect her to take care of it alone.

She wants to restore her image, not by working as a coolie. In the days before reconciliation, naturally working together to live a good life gives people more motivation to persevere.

Shen Chen frowned and looked at her, as if it was a little difficult to understand. His eyes touched the things in the courtyard, but he didn't say anything and went to clean them up without saying a word.

Lin Xi went to the well to fetch water.

Shen Chen paused for a moment, then went over to help her fetch water before entering the kitchen.

Lin Xi was a little happy.

Fortunately, Shen Chen didn't have the ancient idea of ​​leaving all household chores to his wife, and was willing to work with her. Being able to communicate and speak well, Shen Chen was better than she thought.

She went over to wash things with water. It took a while to finish washing and put them on the table to dry. Shen Chen also packed up the kitchen, locked all the old things in a large cabinet, and then entered two rooms.

After Lin Xi finished tidying up the yard, he also carried a basin and a broom in the yard, thinking of doing a simple cleaning of the house.

After Shen Chen finished cleaning up, he came over to help her.

However, Lin Xi fully realized that Shen Chen was really rough with the children in the past. Apart from raising the children, he really didn't care about anything else. It was okay if the house was not cleaned. Once it was cleaned, it was full of dust, so it basically required a general cleaning. An hour passed and only half of the cleaning was completed.

It's getting late, it's almost time to make dinner.

"It seems that we have to continue tomorrow."

Lin Xi stopped Shen Chen and gave him the remaining money he earned today.

Confusion flashed across Shen's face and he said, "You keep the flowers for yourself, you don't have to give them to me."

"Not for you."

Lin Xi gave him a towel, motioned for him to wipe his face, and said, "Aren't the cloths I bought still in the yard? They are for making clothes for Dabao and the others, but I don't know how. The rich water will not flow to other people's fields. You can give it to others." Send it to Aunt Zhang's house to ask her for help and discuss the salary."

Shen Chen looked at her in surprise.

"Go quickly, it's getting dark. Call Dabao and the others back when you come back." Lin Xi urged.

Shen Chen looked at the towel in his hand and hummed in a low voice.

Lin Xi simply tidied up the mess in the house and went out to cook, ignoring Shen Chen.

She planned to mix steamed buns with white flour and corn flour tonight, because she really couldn't eat steamed buns, and the children probably couldn't digest them well.

There was also the meat she bought. Lin Xi first cut off the fat part to boil the lard, and then started to make the braised pork. In addition to this, Lin Xi used the prepared lard to make a plate of scrambled eggs with wild vegetables. The eggs were the same ones she made in the county today. Bought now.

Finally, Lin Xi found a Chinese cabbage in the cabinet and made a stir-fried cabbage with meat. Just in time to use up the meat she bought.

The three courses are a bit small, but the portion is large and enough to eat.

Lin Xi thought that Shen Chen should have bought the cabbage from another family.

Vegetables are essential daily necessities, and it is practical and convenient to grow them yourself.

She had to discuss with Shen Chen to plant some vegetables that could be eaten now.

When the buns were steamed, Shen Chen came back with four small dumplings.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they smelled an alluring fragrance. The four Dabao couldn't help but swallow their saliva and went straight to the kitchen. They looked at Lin Xi in disbelief and bewilderment at the door.

For them, Lin Xi never cooked in the past, Shen Chen's cooking skills were not very good, and they really didn't have much delicious food.

Lin Xi turned around to see them and smiled, "Go and wash your hands. Shen Chen, come here and help me serve the food."

The four little dumplings were so tempted by the delicious food that they completely forgot about everything and quickly ran to wash their hands. In an instant, only Shen Chen was left standing at the door of the kitchen, looking happy to the naked eye.

Shen Chen was stunned for a moment, then responded after a moment: "Okay."
