Lin Xi took it blankly.

When did Shen Chen become interested in this kind of thing? Previously, he had been tormented by her.

Forget it, let’s talk about the matters at hand first.

Lin Xi recalled what Shen Chen read and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with it, then said: "According to what my husband said. Mr. Zhao, can you bring some ink pads?"

"Take it, take it!"

Seeing that the negotiation was concluded, Zhao Dequan was very happy and asked the waiter to bring out the ink pad and hand it to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi was in trouble again.

The document required not only fingerprints but also signatures, but she didn't know how to write her name in traditional Chinese.

At this time, Lin Xi suddenly heard Shen Chen say: "I'll come."

Lin Xi's eyes lit up and she said: "Yes, yes, you are my husband-in-law. It is your responsibility to handle important matters. You will also sign the signature."

Later she started to learn traditional Chinese characters so that next time she can do it by herself.

Brave Lin Xi, not afraid of difficulties!

Shen Chen glanced at Lin Xi quietly, took the ink pad and pressed his fingerprints.

Zhao Dequan felt that they were husband and wife, and their signatures were the same, so he asked the clerk to get a pen and ink. When he had the brush ready, he handed it to Shen Chen.

Lin Xi watched Shen Chen take the pen and noticed that his posture of holding the pen was very standard and upright. It became more and more apparent that his hand was long and straight, with good bones, which corresponded to the word "pleasing to the eye".

Lin Xi couldn't help being curious and looked closer at Shen Chen's writing.

Shen Chen also writes good calligraphy, with flying dragons and flying phoenixes, sharp and yet restrained strokes, which is amazing.

Lin Xi turned his head and his eyes fell on Shen Chen's handsome face.

As good-looking as him.

If he becomes a teacher, he will definitely make more money than Orion. It is not only safe, but also has a stable source of income.

As he was watching, Shen Chen suddenly turned his head and met Lin Xi's eyes.

His dark eyes were so deep that he seemed to be able to envelop a person completely and not be able to escape.

The man's deep voice slowly sounded: "Madam, have you seen enough?"

Lin Xi suddenly came back to his senses and realized that the distance between them was so close at this moment. It was an ambiguous and dangerous distance, and it seemed like he would fall into a deep whirlpool if he was not careful.

Her face became hot, and she immediately stepped back and said with a dry smile: "My husband is good-looking... No, no, no, I mean, your handwriting is beautiful."

Lin Xi almost bit off his tongue.

There were several muffled laughs nearby.

Lin Xi looked over and saw Zhao Dequan and his assistant secretly laughing.

Lin Xi immediately wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

The outsider is still here!

Zhao Dequan covered his face with his hands and coughed twice, then took the calligraphy and said, "Miss Lin, the calligraphy written by your husband is really beautiful. It is the most elegant calligraphy Zhao has ever seen. No wonder Miss Lin was stunned."

Lin Xi said awkwardly: "Mr. Zhao is joking."

Zhao Dequan smiled and said nothing, "I wonder when Miss Lin is going to give me the recipe?"

Lin Xi calmed down and said: "Now, I don't have any pen and ink at home. Since you brought it, I'll tell you, just let your buddy write it. See, your buddy is also literate."

Zhao Dequan was overjoyed: "That's great!"

He asked the clerk to come forward and get new paper.

Lin Xi talked while the boy wrote, and it was quickly completed.

Lin Xi said: "Master Zhao, please take it back and let Chef Zhao of your restaurant cook it. I will go to the county tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. If you have any questions, you can ask me then."

"Hey, Miss Lin has thought carefully!"

Zhao Dequan agreed and left happily.

After bidding them farewell, Lin Xi closed the courtyard door and came back. Only she and Shen Chen were left, and the atmosphere seemed even more awkward.

Especially thinking about what happened just now, Lin Xi touched her nose uncomfortably.

Shen Chen looked as usual, picked up the knife and wood and continued to carve, saying: "Zhao Dequan is a better person to make friends with than the king in charge of Fulai Tower."

Lin Xi said: "I think so too."

Looking at Shen Chen, she said in a strange way: "Did you mean it just now?"

Shen Chen paused, looked up at her, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "You mean, I deliberately tempted you to stare at me without blinking?"

"That was not what I meant!"

Lin Xi's face turned red.

It wasn't like she was looking at him on purpose.

Lin Xi said: "I mean, you can see that I can't read the words on the document, right?"

Shen Chen lowered his head and continued to carve, and said yes.

Lin Xi hesitated on the spot for a while, then sat down and said, "Thank you."

Not pointing it out directly in front of Zhao Dequan gave her a lot of face.

Shen Chen said: "Nothing."

Lin Xi remembered her doubts just now and asked tentatively: "Then can I ask you a question?"

Shen Chen said: "Ask."

"You can write well. It seems that you at least read poetry and books before. Then how come you become a hunter in Chenyang Village? Isn't it good to be a teacher or to get a good reputation?"

Maybe Shen Chen's ability to become a powerful minister later started by taking the exam.

Shen Chen's hand carving wood paused.

Seeing this, Lin Xi asked tentatively: "You have already passed the exam, but failed? In fact, this is nothing. There are many people who have not passed the exam for many years."

In this era, the industrial, commercial, scholar-peasant class was still very strict.

Otherwise, Manager Wang of Fulai Tower would not keep trying to please the county captain.

Shen Chen twirled his fingertips and said, "No, I haven't passed the exam."

Lin Xi said: "Then why don't you give it a try? If you are interested."

Shen Chen shook his head: "I can't be an official. Besides, the four Dabaos can't live without me."

Lin Xi thought to herself that Shen Chen could be here all the time for the sake of his children, which meant that he really loved his children.

But the more this happened, the more Lin Xi became curious about Shen Chen's deceased wife.

What kind of good woman could tempt someone like Shen Chen and raise her son alone for several years?

Shen Chen was a little embarrassed by Lin Xi's look and said, "Why do you look at me like that?"

Lin Xi patted him on the shoulder and praised: "I think you are a really powerful and responsible man. Of course, you are also very emotional."

Shen Chen: "?"

Where did this idea come from?

Lin Xi felt a little sour in her heart, so she retracted her hand and said: "Don't worry, I understand you, and I will definitely reconcile with you. I heard that Li Zheng is back, and I know that you haven't mentioned reconciliation in the past few days because something happened to the four treasures." When she gets better, we'll go to Li Zheng's place. I'm easy to talk to."

Shen Chen: "..."

Lin Xi sighed and stood up to go back to the house.

But when he was about to leave, he was suddenly pulled back by Shen Chen.

She looked at Shen Chen: "What's wrong? Do you want to tell me that I think too much?"

Shen Chen opened his mouth.

Lin Xi immediately said: "I know, I know. We don't have to wait for the four treasures to get better. We have to at least wait until the house is renovated, right? Otherwise, I won't have time to find a place to live after we leave."

Shen Chen shut up: "..."

He took a deep breath as if he had a headache, relaxed his hands, and said: "I didn't say He Li. Do you know medical skills? When you show it to the Four Treasures, show it to yourself too."

Lin Xi: "..."

Although she wasn't sure what Shen Chen meant in the first half of the sentence, she understood the second half!

Shen Chen asked her to look at her brain!

Humph! You’re the one with the problem!
