In the yard.

Lin Xi went over to sit down at the table and frowned: "There's something wrong. Although we make money, we don't want to hide it from the villagers, but we have always been in a hurry to go out early, so busy that the time is staggered with the villagers' working time. They I didn’t know it before, so how come I know it all of a sudden?”

According to the temperament of the villagers, if they had known about it earlier, they would have come to the door long ago.

so……

Lin Xi looked at Shen Chen, who was walking towards her: "It's probably someone who stared at us on purpose and deliberately incited the villagers after finding out."

Shen Chen sat down opposite her and nodded in agreement with her.

"Who could it be? It's definitely not the village chief's family. Could it be that he was seen when he went to old Uncle Li's house to rent a bullock cart?"

Lin Xi was a little confused, but quickly thought of what happened a few days ago.

"By the way! I noticed someone was following me a few days ago, but I didn't find anything. I didn't feel safe. I took detours in the mountains for a few days, and only resumed the route two days ago. Is it possible? My feeling Yes, someone is indeed following me?"

"It should be." Shen Chen said solemnly, "A few days ago, I also found someone around outside my home, but I didn't feel that the other person was hostile. I thought it was just a coincidence."

Lin Xi's expression became solemn: "Then it seems he is the same person. Have we offended anyone?"

Shen Chen shook his head.

After a moment, he frowned and said, "Aunt Li and the others?"

Lin Xi was confused: "Why don't we just beat their children? Besides, weren't Aunt Li and the others busy looking for doctors to save the lives of their family members?"

Shen Chen was silent for a few seconds and said, "It's not because of this."

"What's that for?" Lin Xi was surprised.

Shen Chen said truthfully: "I was the one who did it when their people were caught in the Yamen."

"Oh, that's it...what?!!"

Lin Xi responded, suddenly realizing what he was talking about, and his eyes widened in shock.

"You did it. Didn't you go out early that day to sell prey in the county?"

Shen Chen said: "No. I often go to the county and am familiar with the people in the village. I know who in their family has a gambling addiction and what they have done. So I went out in the middle of the night that day and happened to catch up with them when I arrived in the county. He was the point of gathering a crowd. Then he was lured over during patrol at the Yamen, and took the opportunity to cover his head and beat him up."

Lin Xi was stunned for a while when she heard this, but she grasped the key point: "You beat up the official??"

"Um."

"You also reported this person?"

"Um."

"..."

Lin Xi hissed, completely unable to tell that he was someone who could do such a thing!

Pian Chenchen was very calm and said: "Maybe they found out that I did this, so they followed you and me."

"Ah this..."

Really caught off guard.

Lin Xi couldn't help but ask: "But why did you do this?"

Hearing this, Shen Chen looked at her and said in a low voice: "You will be my wife for one day, and I will be responsible for you. If anything happens, as long as it does not touch the bottom line, I will cover it for you."

The implication is that he feels that it is his responsibility to solve Aunt Li's troubles, and she does not have to face them.

Lin Xi thought to himself, if Aunt Li and her family had not committed any crime in the Yamen that day, Aunt Li and the others would have come looking for them in the morning.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi looked at Shen Chen, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

She quickly told herself: wake up! Shen Chen's words were a promise to the original owner, not to her!

Lin Xi coughed twice and said: "If that's the case, then what... If you have a chance tomorrow, go ask the village chief and the others if they know who the villagers know from. If it's really Aunt Li and the others... think again what to do."

Fortunately, this time it was just a conflict over the wild vegetable business, and no one in the family had any trouble.

If Aunt Li and the others were following them, they also wanted to knock on the sap quietly... She would knock back! Who let their children bully her family's eldest children?

Shen Chen hummed, and after hearing that there was no movement outside, he said, "Get some rest early."

Lin Xi said: "You should go to bed first. I still have to drink the last dose of medicine. Starting tomorrow, I won't need to drink medicine."

In fact, she had already recovered, but she still wanted to take care of herself, so she kept drinking.

Shen Chen nodded, stood up and was about to leave, but paused and looked behind Lin Xi.

Lin Xi turned around and saw the four Dabaos at the door, looking at them worriedly.

Dabao ran out first and asked: "Dad, are the people in the village here just now looking for trouble?"

They heard a lot of noise and were afraid something might happen.

Shen Chen shook his head and said, "It's nothing. It's all over. You go to bed early."

"Is it really okay?"

Erbao also ran out.

Three Treasures and Four Treasures hesitated for a moment and then went over.

Lin Xi squatted down, stretched out his hand to call them over, and said, "Don't worry. Don't say it's okay. Even if something happens, we'll still be here, right? You just have to be happy, that's enough."

The four children looked at her blankly, and suddenly, they all rushed forward to hug her.

Lin Xi almost sat down on the ground, but Shen Chen had quick eyesight and quick hands to help her.

Not to mention, the little dumplings hugged each other so tightly that Lin Xi was a little out of breath.

It was rare to be hugged by them, so Lin Xi said nothing and patted their heads soothingly.

When they were about to say something else, the little dumplings suddenly let go and took a step back. They all said good night as Lin Xi often said, and ran back to the room together.

Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, then raised his head in confusion and asked Shen Chen: "They... just left like that?"

She hadn't even had time to say what she was planning.

Shen Chen lowered his eyes and looked at her. His eyes were so deep that he seemed to be able to envelop her whole body. He suddenly said in a nonchalant manner: "Maybe the children like you a little now."

"I know, obviously I'm very likeable."

Lin Xi had a feeling, but she wasn't sure about it before. Now that it was confirmed from Shen Chen's mouth, she was so happy that she wanted to raise her tail.

Shen Chen looked at her and suddenly reached out to touch her head. Under her suddenly widened eyes, he said without changing his expression: "It seems that if you don't get enough rest, your brain will become stupid. It just so happens that you don't have to go out tomorrow. You should sleep a little longer to recharge your brain."

Lin Xi: “???”

Shen Chen retracted his hand and entered the house without looking back.

Lin Xi squatted on the ground for a while, stood up suddenly, waved his fist at the door, and whispered: "You are stupid! Your whole family is stupid!"

She is obviously so smart, and when the villagers came to find her, she had already thought of ways to make money!

Then thinking about the Yamen matter, Lin Xi felt a little soft-hearted again and muttered: "Okay, I accept your kindness."

But she won't accept it in vain.

She is a person who never owes anything to others.

After the house was repaired, she started treating Shen Chen's legs.

Hum hum, Shen Chen will definitely be surprised when the time comes and he will admit that she is so powerful.

Lin Xi couldn't help being in a good mood, humming a small tune and went to the kitchen to make medicine.
