The original wife who died young and dressed as the villain regent
022. Will you partner with me?
After returning to Chenyang Village, Lin Xi and Shen Chen separated at the fork in the road approaching their home.
Lin Xi said to Shen Chen: "You send the jars and things home first, then go to old Uncle Li's house and return the oxcart to him. I will go to the village chief's house to pick up the children."
Shen Chen agreed and drove the bullock cart away.
Lin Xi turned around and walked to the other side, and soon arrived at the village chief's house. Before she even entered, she heard a strange male voice inside.
"Mom, Xiaoyu and I picked some mushrooms and came back. Let's eat mushrooms tonight."
Lin Xi went in and saw Aunt Zhang sitting in the yard, cutting fabrics, and a little girl about thirteen or fourteen years old with delicate features taking measurements of Si Bao, who was sitting obediently.
Standing in front of Aunt Zhang was a sturdy young man, about the same age as the little girl, holding up the frame in his hand and saying happily to Aunt Zhang.
The second treasure took the third treasure to the side and chased a group of chickens to play. Dabao followed behind and sprinkled some corn noodles to feed the chickens.
As soon as Aunt Zhang responded to the young man, she turned around and saw Lin Xi coming in. She immediately laughed: "Madam Shen, you are back."
When the four Dabao heard the words, they immediately looked over, and the four immediately stood up.
"Yes," Lin Xi walked in with a smile, "Auntie, the children may have caused you trouble this afternoon."
"No, no, you don't know how well-behaved these children are!" Aunt Zhang said hurriedly.
Lin Xi walked over, and Si Bao walked around the little girl, ran up to Lin Xi, raised his little head and called her.
Lin Xi touched her head gently and said, "It's time to go home and eat."
Dabao put down what he was holding and called his two younger brothers who were playing crazy to come over.
Lin Xi glanced at them before feeling reassured, and then her eyes fell on the boy and the girl on the side, "Aunt Zhang, who are these two?"
"Oh, let me introduce you. This is my son, Zhang Ze, and that is my daughter, Zhang Yu'er."
Aunt Zhang smiled and called the two children over and asked them to say hello to Lin Xi.
"Aunt Lin!"
Zhang Ze is more cheerful, while Zhang Yu is a little embarrassed as a girl, especially after seeing that Lin Xi is not much older than her.
Lin Xi was a little embarrassed to be called aunt.
It's so pitiful that she is not old enough to be called aunt!
She thought slightly and said: "It's getting late, I have to take the children back for dinner. Just... Aunt Zhang, after dinner at your house, would you like to go to my house?"
Aunt Zhang asked doubtfully: "What's the matter? Madam Shen, if you have anything to say, just say it now."
Lin Xi smiled: "This matter is quite complicated. Let me go back and think about it carefully. When you come after dinner, I will tell you clearly."
"That's okay."
It happened that it was time for her family to make dinner, and Aunt Zhang agreed.
Lin Xi took his four children back.
When we got home, Shen Chen was giving a quick tutorial and happened to come over too.
Lin Xi directed Shen Chen to help her move the jar into the kitchen and move another one into the back room. Then she and Shen Chen divided the work and asked Shen Chen to put the rice and noodles in while she went to cook.
As promised to the children yesterday, Lin Xi cooked braised pork again, then cooked two vegetarian dishes, and steamed the remaining steamed buns from last night.
During the process, Lin Xi dug out the Ganoderma lucidum she found and buried it in a jar.
Shen Chen took the children for a walk and took a look at the place pointed out by Lin Xi.
When they came back, Lin Xi had also cooked the meal. The four little dumplings smelled the aroma and couldn't wait to wash their hands. They also took the initiative to set the table, and Shen Chen went to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
Except for the braised pork, Shen Chen and the children had never seen the other two dishes before, but they were so fragrant that they all whetted their appetites, and they all stretched out their chopsticks without hesitation.
This meal also makes people feel happy.
At the end of the meal, Dabao suddenly said: "Dad, next time you go to the county, can you buy some chicks?"
Shen Chen asked; "What do you want this for?"
Dabao said seriously: "When the chickens grow up, they can lay eggs. I have also grown up, and I can help the family share the burden. When the chickens lay eggs, I will sell them. Sister Zhang Yu said that I can sell them for a lot of money."
"And me! Me!"
Erbao raised his hand and said, "I can also take care of the chickens. I know what grass they eat."
After saying that, he poked Sambo with his elbow.
San Bao bit his chopsticks and looked at him blankly. Er Bao gave up and pressed his head directly, "San Bao said he can do it too."
Then they all looked at the Four Treasures.
Si Bao was confused and whispered: "I...I can...teach them to be obedient?"
Lin Xi burst out laughing and said, "If you want it, I'll buy it for you. Just in time, I'm going to the county tomorrow and I'll bring some back to you."
This reminded her that the four children were getting bigger and bigger and could not be kept free all the time.
Now they have something they want to do, which is great. They can also play with the chickens when they are bored.
Lin Xi made a mouth gesture towards Shen Chen.
Shen Chen had no objection: "Okay."
"Very good!"
Dabao and the others immediately became happy, and even the awkward feeling that Lin Xi bought it for them was temporarily ignored.
After eating happily, Aunt Zhang came.
As soon as she walked in, she was shocked by the brand-new Shen family in front of her. She was even more surprised when she saw Shen Chen and Dabao and his son washing dishes: "Shen Chen, where is your wife?"
"here I am."
Lin Xi came out of the house and carried the pony over, "Aunt Zhang, sit down and I'll get you a glass of water."
"No, no, no." Aunt Zhang waved her hands quickly, "Madam Shen, what do you want from me?"
Hearing this, Shen Chen glanced at Lin Xi and asked Dabao to bring back his younger brothers and sisters who were outside.
Lin Xi smiled and said: "Aunt Zhang, please be patient and listen to me."
She briefly explained the wild vegetable business and said: "I have reached an agreement with Manager Zhao from Keyunlou, and we can start tomorrow. But I can't take care of it alone, and Shen Chen also has very important things to do. Silai When I wanted to go, I thought of you. Aunt Zhang, are you willing to work with me? "
"join as a partner?!"
Aunt Zhang was confused.
Lin Xi nodded: "I saw today that Brother Ze and Sister Yu in your family are both hard-working owners. If you are willing, you can bring them over tomorrow morning and we will dig wild vegetables together. In the afternoon, we will hire oxcarts to transport them to the county for sale. , the money from the sale will be divided equally between you and me on a per-head basis."
Aunt Zhang understood that Lin Xi wanted to bring their family to make money together.
Aunt Zhang immediately became anxious: "That's not possible!"
"ah?"
Do you think it’s not okay to divide the money like this?
"Aunt Zhang, if you have any ideas, you can tell me..."
But Aunt Zhang said: "This is a money-making job you discovered. It's up to you to earn it yourself! If you are short of manpower, just ask Ze'er and Yu'er to help you!"
Aunt Zhang thought very simply. She had already made a lot of money by making clothes for their family. How could she ask for more money now? And she couldn't ask for money when helping neighbors.
Lin Xi blinked his eyes, looked at Shen Chen, and felt warm in his heart.
She didn't expect Aunt Zhang to be so simple.
Lin Xi felt quite ashamed for his previous guess.
