The next morning, before Lin Xi and Shen Chen had time to find Uncle Li, the village chief and Aunt Zhang came to their door first.

Because they knew that Aunt Li, Mrs. Sun and others came to cause trouble last night, they were really uneasy, so they asked the Zhang Ze brothers and sisters to go to Huming Mountain first, and they came to apologize.

"Shen Chen, Lin Xi, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect to bring you so much trouble!"

The village chief and Aunt Zhang both felt that it was because they failed to deal with Aunt Li and others last night that they came angrily to look for Lin Xi and Shen Chen.

Thinking this way, they felt even more guilty.

Shen Chen came out of the kitchen, asked them to sit down, and said, "Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, this has nothing to do with you."

"That's right, Aunt Zhang. Why should you take the blame for the fault of others' greed? Besides, Aunt Li and the others didn't get even half of it, and they suffered a lot."

Lin Xi dressed up the third and fourth treasures. Seeing that Dabao and the second treasure were able to get dressed by themselves, Lin Xi turned around and went out, closing the door behind them.

The village chief and Aunt Zhang sighed helplessly.

The village chief looked at Shen Chen and smiled bitterly: "Shen Chen, you left the village at such a young age because the people in the village deceived you because your parents were dead and you had no one to rely on. After all these years, I thought the villagers had changed. think……"

"What? They bullied Shen Chen back then?!"

Lin Xi walked over quickly.

The village chief and Aunt Zhang sighed and nodded.

Shen Chen had no expression on his face and said calmly: "It's in the past, there's no need to mention it again."

Lin Xi understood Shen Chen. He probably didn't bother to care about the villagers, nor did he take them seriously. That would be boring.

But it's one thing if Shen Chen doesn't care, it's another thing if she can let it go!

After spending this time together, she began to regard Shen Chen, the villain, as a friend. Lin Xi felt uncomfortable when she thought about how miserable Shen Chen had been in Chenyang Village.

She said: "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let them go so easily last night. They should have been beaten!"

The village chief and Aunt Zhang were stunned.

Shen Chen was also stunned for a moment and looked at Lin Xi intently without saying anything.

Aunt Zhang asked with concern: "Shen Chen, what are you going to do next?"

She knew that the couple would be renovating their house during this period, but they would definitely spend a lot of money during this period and they would also need to make money. Otherwise, they should return the wild vegetable business to Shen Chen and Lin Xi.

Lin Xi saw what Aunt Zhang was thinking and said: "Shen Chen and I have already decided what to do. Since you are all here this morning, I just want to ask you, when you go to the county at noon, can you come with us. Our family is also going to the county today and we need a bullock cart."

"Of course, let's do it together!"

The village chief and Aunt Zhang agreed and said happily: "I'll go to the county today. When the work is done at Huming Mountain, let him drive the bullock cart to pick you up."

After the amount of wild vegetables was reduced, they cooked faster, and no villagers followed them today to waste their time.

Lin Xi nodded and sent them off.

Looking back and seeing Shen Chen, Lin Xi gritted his teeth and said, "Shen Chen, don't worry, I will definitely give you a break!"

Shen Chen asked: "How do you vent your anger?"

"I……"

Lin Xi didn't think about it for a while and said: "Anyway, I will definitely vent my anger on you!"

Shen Chen helped her, and she reciprocated the favor. There is nothing to say about loyalty!

Shen Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Xi with an inexplicable look. He stood up and returned to the kitchen without saying a word.

After a few days, his cooking skills finally improved, and the best thing he made was egg custard, and he would prepare a bowl for each of Lin Xi and the four small dumplings every morning.

Lin Xi looked at his straight back, still feeling very uncomfortable.

She touched her heart strangely, and attributed this to the inability to do it yet. It was just that she didn't know before, but now she knows that the people in the village have bullied Shen Chen, let's see how she has established a reputation for cheating them!

The four children had already packed up and came out to wash their hands and faces. Lin Xi went over to help them and mentioned that they would go to the county to play together.

"Can the Four Treasures eat Tangtang?"

Si Bao looked at Lin Xi expectantly.

Lin Xi rubbed her little head and said, "Of course, you can eat as much as you want from the Four Treasures."

"That's great!" Sibaola held Lin Xi's little finger with her little hand and said sweetly: "Don't have too many Sibaola, just eat two pieces, and I'll give the rest to you!"

"Oh, why are you so lovable!"

Lin Xi hugged her hard. Dabao and Erbao laughed at the side, and Sanbao said silently: "Dad said that eating sweets too often will damage your teeth."

They have been eating for many days!

"Shut up, don't talk at this time."

When Er Bao saw Si Bao's little head drooping, he immediately covered San Bao's mouth, hooked his neck and took him away.

Sanbao struggled for a while and found that he couldn't get away, so he simply gave up and lay down.

After breakfast, Lin Xi planned to visit old Uncle Li's house.

Shen Chen wanted to go with her, but the children still needed someone to take care of them, and Lin Xi often went to Old Uncle Li some time ago and became very familiar with Old Uncle Li, so in the end she went alone.

When she found Old Uncle Li's house, Old Uncle Li was about to go out.

Seeing Lin Xi unexpectedly, Old Uncle Li was a little embarrassed and said: "Lin Xi, are you here to rent an oxcart? Then what... the village chief's brother Zhe already rented it for today yesterday."

Lin Xi smiled and said, "I know, I'm not here to rent a bullock cart, but I just want to ask, is your Shuisheng here?"

Old Li Shu was worried that Lin Xi would ask him about wild vegetables. Hearing this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Shui Sheng is not here. He went out to work in the fields early. What do you want to do with him?"

Lin Xi looked at old Uncle Li, not sure if he knew about Li Shuisheng.

She tentatively said: "I overheard that it was Brother Shuisheng who told the villagers about my partnership with the village chief and others to sell wild vegetables. By coincidence, I happened to meet him a few days ago. I thought he knew about it at that time. Yes, it seems that he wanted to go into the mountains at that time. He is quite familiar with the mountains. I also want to go into the mountains and want him to show me the way. Don’t worry, I won’t let him lead the way in vain.”

When Old Uncle Li heard what he said, his heart skipped a beat, and then he felt relieved and said, "So that's it. Madam Shen, I'll tell you the location of my property, and you can go find it yourself. I have something to do first, so I can't take you there. go."

It was a matter of making money, and Old Uncle Li responded happily.

Lin Xi thanked him politely and followed the location pointed by Old Uncle Li to find him.

However, she did not see Li Shuisheng in the fields of old Uncle Li's house.

Just when she was wondering if Old Uncle Li was wrong, she walked a few dozen meters eastward and saw Li Shuisheng in someone else's field.

There was a middle-aged man next to him. Li Shuisheng seemed to be helping him, and he looked a little attentive.

Just as Lin Xi was about to call Li Shuisheng, he glanced at him casually and suddenly stopped.

On the ridge of the field, stood a pretty girl, who turned out to be the person she met that day.
