Because I had already cleaned the house before and tidied it up every now and then, the house was not too messy.

In the afternoon, Lin Xi called the children and together they briefly cleaned the house, washed the clothes they had changed in the past two days, and finished the work in the evening.

Shen Chen was not at home. The firewood at home was almost used up, so he had to go to the nearby mountains to chop some more and bring them back. By the time of dinner in the evening, another high pile of firewood had been piled up at home, enough to last until the end of the first month.

Lin Xi announced at the dinner table: "Since the Chinese New Year is coming soon, it's time to buy new year's goods. I asked Aunt Zhang that there will be a big fair in the county tomorrow, and our family will go to the fair to buy things together."

"Really? We can go again?!"

The four treasures were very excited when they heard this.

They have never been to the county since the last time they went together. Although they have never actively mentioned that they want to go, they are still young after all, and no matter how sensible and obedient they are, they still have a playful temperament, so they still hope to go to the county. Played in.

Lin Xi smiled and said: "Your father and I will bring enough money tomorrow. You can buy whatever you want to eat and play. This is the first official New Year for our family, so we must live it well and happily."

"Great!"

The four treasures cheered together, feeling more energetic after eating.

After dinner, the four children quickly washed up and went to bed, hoping that tomorrow would come early.

Lin Xi felt very tired after a long day of work. After washing up and about to take a rest, she was suddenly stopped by Shen Chen.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Chen took out a box from somewhere and handed it to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi looked at him doubtfully, feeling that this scene seemed familiar.

It wasn't until she took it and opened it that her eyes widened.

There were actually quite a few banknotes and scraps of silver inside, and the banknotes were all worth a hundred taels!

Lin Xi was confused, "Where did these come from? Shen Chen, you, you... wouldn't have done any robbery, right??"

Shen Chen: "..."

Shen Chen sighed and said, "This is this year's harvest from the fields, as well as some unpaid money."

"???"

so much!

wrong--

“What about the money you gave me earlier??”

Shen Chen said: "That's from last year. Part of it...was given to you when I got married, and part of it was kept."

“Do you have this much income every year??”

Shen Chen shook his head, "The harvest every year is not much. Some people owe this money for a long time. It's a coincidence that we have this at the right time."

After hearing this, Lin Xi took a deep breath.

Mom!

She originally thought Shen Chen was rich, but it turned out that Shen Chen was richer than she thought!

In the past year, the original owner was able to make Shen Chen and his children's lives live like that. It was really amazing.

Lin Xi closed it with a snap and handed it back to Shen Chen, "You should keep the money."

"Why?"

"It's too much, and it's not easy for you to make money. Manager Zhao paid me the money last time, which is enough for our family to spend a long time."

Shen Chen looked at Lin Xi and said, "Don't you want to do business? You can use it as capital."

When Lin Xi heard this, she felt that she couldn't have it even more.

She said: "That won't work. My business is my own business. Where can I use your money? You take it back."

Shen Chen frowned slightly and asked, "Why can't you use mine?"

Lin Xi: "Ah?"

Shen Chen continued: "Now that you and I are still husband and wife, do we need to separate so clearly?"

Lin Xi reacted for a while, choking on her words, "I...I didn't mean that."

"Then what do you mean?"

Shen Chen was actually a little reluctant to ask for details. No matter how nervous Ren Linxi was, she could tell that Shen Chen was angry.

Lin Xi was in a hurry and blurted out: "There must be some spare money at home. Think about it, Dabao will be studying next year. It will cost a lot of money in a month, and the family will also need expenses. Then I will use my money to do business. , then don’t you have to save your money until then to support your family’s expenses? So, you can’t spend it now.”

When Shen Chen heard this, he stopped talking.

Lin Xi looked at him tentatively and called out: "Shen Chen?"

Shen Chen seemed a little helpless and sighed in compromise, but still did not take it, and said calmly: "Then you keep it first, you don't have to give it to me."

Seeing Shen Chen's insistence, Lin Xi had no choice but to agree, but still felt that it was a bit hot to take the money.

Moreover, she felt strange.

Because she never thought about spending a lot of money from Shen Chen. The last time she spent the money Shen Chen gave her, it was because she really had no money at that time and needed to use Shen Chen's money to cover family expenses. Afterwards, Zhao Dequan gave her a monthly payment When it came to money, she actually secretly made up for the money spent by Hua Chenchen.

How to put it, maybe in her heart, she never really regarded herself and Shen Chen as husband and wife, so she felt awkward about Shen Chen's behavior which was equivalent to "handing in wages" in later generations.

Wait - why did Shen Chen hand over his income??

Lin Xi suddenly realized this problem and became even more confused.

Shen Chen's voice suddenly sounded: "What's wrong?"

Lin Xi took a step back in shock, looked at Shen Chen and blinked, and said hurriedly: "No, no, no...it's nothing. Well, I'm too tired, so I'm going to sleep first."

Shen Chen looked at her, wondering if she believed her or not, and said hum.

Lin Xi immediately turned around and went back to the house.

She probably thinks too much.

Is she overthinking it?!

Yes, she must be overthinking it. Shen Chen just thinks she is having a hard time and wants to share it with her. There is absolutely no intention for future generations!

After Lin Xi closed the door, she leaned against the door and slowly slid down.

After a while, Lin Xi screamed and covered his face.

Lin Xi, Lin Xi, you have to restrain yourself and don't think too much! Shen Chen won't have any thoughts about you! He likes the heroine, not you!

Before going to bed, Lin Xi thought of many places to hide money, but she felt uneasy.

Finally, she was placed in the earth hole in the middle of the kang pit, and then she could sleep with some peace of mind.

The next day, the whole family got up very early, chatted and laughed, and after breakfast, Shen Chen went to old Uncle Li's house to borrow an ox cart, and they drove the ox cart to the county.

This reminded Lin Xi of something.

"Shen Chen, since you have money now, why not take advantage of today and go to the county to buy an ox cart? This way you don't have to borrow it from Old Uncle Li all the time."

Shen Chen had no objection to her words at all and nodded immediately.

When the four treasures heard that their family was going to have a bullock cart, they were all looking forward to it.

Lin Xi smiled and joked a few words, then turned to talk to Shen Chen: "Why were you gone for so long just now? Did something happen at old Uncle Li's house?"

Shen Chen drove the cattle drive: "Old Uncle Li told me about Li Shuisheng. He left home not long ago, saying he was going to work outside, but there was no news. "Old Uncle Li was worried that something happened to Li Shuisheng, and wanted to ask me to find him in the Yamen. "

Lin Xi hasn't heard from Li Shuisheng for a long time.

Her impression of Li Shuisheng still remained that Li Shuisheng liked Fang Xing'er.
