The original wife who died young and dressed as the villain regent

After saying that, Shen Chen leaned over to pick up the bamboo basket, held Lin Xi's hand, and led her away.

Lin Xi stared at Shen Chen blankly, unable to regain his consciousness for a moment.

By the time she reacted, the two of them were already going around the screen wall.

She turned around with lingering fear, only to see Fang's father and mother being arrested and held down quickly. They were crying bitterly, and the village chief stood aside and looked at them in embarrassment.

The headmaster Wang in the hall has already stood up and is talking to the county lieutenant. The master is angrily scolding the policeman who had his sword taken away. However, all the policemen listened with dumbfounded expressions on their faces. They looked green and white. .

After leaving the Yamen, Lin Xi looked up at the midday sun, feeling somewhat silent.

Shen Chen saw the bullock cart not far away, let go of Lin Xi's hand and told her to wait where she was, and went to drive the bullock cart over.

Lin Xi took two steps toward him. When he was close to her eyes, he hesitated and said, "It's not good for us to leave like this, right?"

"It doesn't matter."

"How about giving birth to them..."

"The Yamen will give an appropriate punishment."

Lin Xi looked back at the yamen door and said, "Will Fang Sheng... really be beheaded?"

Shen Chen put the bamboo basket on the bullock cart, looked at Lin Xi, and said, "He has sinned like this. Don't you want him to be beheaded?"

"no."

Lin Xi shook his head.

She just had never been so close to the word "beheading".

She was very angry when the Four Treasures were hurt before. But when she was angry again, she just wanted to vent her anger after catching the thief, or at least give him a good beating. She never thought of beheading him.

In her time, a serious case would probably be... locked up for more than ten years?

So today in the Yamen, Lin Xi suddenly realized clearly that she had really entered a completely unfamiliar era, and everything around her was real and vivid. Not just this book.

Thinking of this, Lin Xi looked at Shen Chen.

Shen Chen solved the problem so quickly that she didn't have to worry much. This made her admire Shen Chen somewhat and gave her a new understanding of Shen Chen.

She was still confused about two points.

One is...

Lin Xi said: "Why do you insist on dealing with Fang Xing'er as well?"

Shen Chen said: "She has evil thoughts and does many unjust things. What Fang Sheng did was due to her instigation."

Lin Xi blinked, said oh, and said in a protracted tone: "But after all, she has proposed marriage to you, do you really have no affection for her at all?"

Shen Chen: "..."

Shen Chen took a deep breath, seemingly helpless, and watched Lin Xi emphasize word by word: "I have never discussed marriage with her, and we are not familiar with her. In terms of love, it is only you."

Lin Xi muttered: "I am so heartless. The night before, you said you wanted to reconcile."

The air suddenly became quiet.

Lin Xi's expression froze.

She spoke softly, but she was sure that Shen Chen heard it.

Lin Xi didn't dare to look at Shen Chen's expression for a moment. She stared down at her toes, silent, screaming in her heart what to do, what to do!

Moreover, what does Shen Chen say? She obviously wanted to divorce at that time!

These words seemed to be completely blaming Shen Chen.

But that’s not what she meant!

Just when Lin Xi was thinking hard about how to get out of the situation, it was Shen Chen who spoke first to break the stalemate.

His voice was low: "Go back first, Dabao and the others should be waiting in a hurry."

Lin Xi nodded hurriedly, not even knowing what he was saying: "Yes, yes, Dabao and the others haven't eaten yet, no, they have eaten, no, I mean they haven't had lunch yet, I..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Chen suddenly stretched out his hand to support Lin Xi's waist, lifted her up with a strong force, and placed her firmly on the bullock cart.

Lin Xi looked at Shen Chen, her words stuck.

Shen Chen let go and took a step back. There seemed to be a smile in his black eyes, but his expression was as plain as an illusion.

He said: "If you don't leave, I'm afraid I won't even have lunch."

Lin Xi swallowed, struggled to stay awake, and said, "Well, let's go. However, I still have a doubt."

Shen Chen: "Huh?"

Lin Xi shook his head and said: "When I came in, I went in and saw you sitting, the village chief standing, the county lieutenant and the others seemed... to respect you quite a bit, why is that?"

Shen Chen said calmly: "I have good skills. They often ask me to help catch thieves."

Lin Xi thought there was something strange about this reason, but after thinking about it, it made sense.

Shen Chen said: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"No. Let's go back." Lin Xi said.

Shen Chen nodded, turned around and pulled the reins of the bullock cart. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard someone calling them: "Miss Lin, stay! Stay!"

Lin Xi and Shen Chen looked towards the source of the sound and saw Manager Wang coming out of the Yamen and hurriedly walking towards them.

Lin Xi frowned, looked at Shen Chen, signaled Shen Chen to stop, and jumped off the bullock cart.

Manager Wang came over with a smile: "Miss Lin, we said goodbye the day before yesterday. I never thought that we would meet in the Yamen today. What a fate, a fate!"

Lin Xi didn't have a good impression of Manager Wang at the moment.

First, she took a closer look at Fang Sheng in the yamen and felt that he looked familiar. She was still wondering if the original owner had really met Fang Sheng before, how she had offended him, and how could she have thought that Manager Wang would show up.

At that time, Lin Xi suddenly remembered that she thought Fang Sheng looked familiar. Wasn't it because she met Manager Wang at the market the day before yesterday? The young man who was following Manager Wang at that time was Fang Sheng?!

Thinking back to the fact that Fang Sheng had searched everywhere in her house and what Fang Sheng had said, Lin Xi suddenly understood.

Although Manager Wang and Zhao Dequan have cooperated, they are both in the restaurant business, and they were originally in a competitive relationship. The new dishes she cooked at Ke Yunlou caused such a sensation at the time, Manager Wang probably already knew about it, and was afraid that Ke Yun Lou has reached a new level with her recipes.

Also, when I met Manager Wang in the market, he called her Lin. She never told Manager Wang her surname, which meant that Manager Wang only found out her details after asking about her privately. Since Fang Sheng was valued by Manager Wang, Presumably Manager Wang also knew that Fang Sheng was from the same village as her, so he wanted to send Fang Sheng to her house to steal the recipe.

However, what they never expected was that since she had not yet reached an agreement with Zhao Dequan, she did not write down the recipe on paper at all.

How could it be found?

Lin Xi's face paled a little, "It's not necessary to have this kind of fate."

Manager Wang smiled and said: "Miss Lin, don't get me wrong. Although Fang Sheng is an apprentice in my restaurant, I really don't know what he does. If I had known that he was such a person, what would I have said? I won’t leave him to do anything!”

"Then what unique recipe he said is true?" Lin Xi looked at Manager Wang.

Manager Wang said with a normal expression: "Well, if you say you haven't thought about it, Miss Lin, you won't believe it, right? The new dish that Miss Lin made for Ke Yunlou that day was so famous that I heard about it, so naturally I was curious. It’s important, but I don’t think twice about other people’s things. Miss Lin, don’t misunderstand other people’s slanderous words.”

Lin Xi twitched the corners of his lips and said, "I just believe in the way the king is in charge. There are a lot of things going on at home today, so I need to take the first step."
