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

The village chief was naturally happy, so he found a slender wooden pole to hang the firecrackers on, and inserted one end of the wooden pole into the ground.

Zhang Ze went back to the kitchen in a hurry, took a piece of firewood with sparks on it and handed it to the village chief.

Then everyone stood a little further away and immediately backed away when they saw the village chief carrying the firewood and lighting the core of the firecrackers.

The crackling sound was deafening.

Si Bao was a little frightened and snuggled up to Lin Xi, burying his face in her arms. Lin Xi squatted down and covered her ears.

Si Bao blinked and couldn't help but look curiously.

The three boys became bolder and clapped their hands happily.

Lin Xi couldn't help but laugh.

No wonder people like to set off firecrackers to celebrate whenever something happy happens. The sound is really lively and reassuring, as if all the depression has been shaken away, leaving only open joy.

She suddenly wanted to look at Shen Chen and met his eyes.

It turned out that he was looking at her too.

When their eyes met, Lin Xi couldn't help but look away, coughed twice and lowered his head.

Shen Chen's eyes moved from Lin Xi to the children, and finally back to Lin Xi, his eyes softened.

After the firecrackers were set off, the village chief said happily: "Shen Chen, the firecrackers you bought are good, the sound is loud, and they are popular when you hear them. You will definitely become more popular in the future."

Shen Chen said: "I would like to lend you some kind words."

"Okay, okay, now that it's all over, let's start the banquet. I'm looking forward to Miss Lin, no, Mrs. Shen, I'm looking forward to Mrs. Shen's cooking skills, but I've been looking forward to it all morning." Zhao Dequan smiled heartily.

The group of people returned to the yard like this.

They were holding bowls and chopsticks, and they were picking up matza, talking and joking, it was so lively.

…

The sound of Shen Chen and Lin Xi setting off firecrackers also alarmed the villagers.

The villagers came out to take a look. Not only was there an ox cart parked outside Shen Chen's house, but there was also a carriage that looked very wealthy at first glance. It must be that a wealthy family was visiting their home.

This made the villagers feel sour and angry.

"How long has it been since then? The Shen Chen family has been living so well. Will it be better in the future?"

"After becoming rich, I don't think about the people in the village. It turns out that even if the Fang family tried to persuade me, they were right."

"I don't want to mention this. Do you want to end up in jail like the Fang family?"

At this time, an indignant voice sounded from the side: "That was their family's deliberate attempt to frame Myolie's sister's family!"

The villagers looked around and saw that it was Li Shuisheng from Uncle Li's family.

A villager said: "Hey, brother Shuisheng, I remember that your family is going to the Fang family to propose marriage, right?"

In the past, people in the village often saw Li Shuisheng working diligently for the Fang family, and even calling his sister Xing'er enthusiastically. If this wasn't his crush on Fang Xing'er, what else could it be?

"It's a pity that Fang Xing'er doesn't like you. I heard that Fang Xing'er was still thinking about Shen Chen when she was in court." A villager said.

Why did Shen Chen get all the good things?

Li Shuisheng's face turned red, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence: "So what? Sister Xing'er was deceived by Shen Chen!"

The villagers sneered and disapproved, and left one after another not wanting to pay attention to Li Shuisheng anymore.

Li Shuisheng glared at Shen Chen's family angrily, "Just wait, I will definitely prove that I am the best!"

Tomorrow he will go to the county to find work. He wants to become a rich man and will never be a farmer again!

…

The dinner ended in the afternoon.

The village chief and Aunt Zhang's family still had something to do, so they took Zhang Ze and Zhang Yu away first.

Zhao Dequan estimated that the time was almost up and said goodbye, but...

"Mrs. Shen, Zhao has something to say to you."

Lin Xi knew that what he was going to say was probably about Earth Dragon City, and it was difficult for him to endure it for so long.

Lin Xi greeted Shen Chen, sent Zhao Dequan out, and said, "Mr. Zhao, please don't call me Mrs. Shen. Call me Miss Lin."

"Why is this?" Zhao Dequan was surprised.

He found that when he called Lin Xi Mrs. Shen, Shen Chen's expression on his face was obviously much gentler.

Now that he knows that Shen Chen has a close relationship with the Yamen and can bring trouble to Fulailou, he naturally doesn't mind saying nice things to make Shen Chen have a better impression of him.

Lin Xi and Shen Chen are also husband and wife, so it is normal for him to call them that.

Lin Xi touched his nose uncomfortably and said, "I'd rather listen to Miss Lin more naturally. Besides, it's me, Lin Xi, who does business with you, Manager Zhao. I also hope that others will know about me in the future, and their impression of me will be better." It’s me as a person, not someone’s wife.”

Zhao Dequan didn't quite understand the difference between the two, but he still followed: "Okay, Miss Lin. Actually, I asked you to come out mainly to talk about the earth dragon. Have you done it yet?"

Lin Xi said: "As you have seen, Mr. Zhao, my house is being renovated during this period, so there is not much time left to do it. But it will be ready in the next two days at the latest, and I will send it to you then."

Zhao Dequan breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became more genuine: "The recipe..."

Lin Xi said: "It's almost ready. I'll take it together in the next two days."

Zhao Dequan laughed and said, "I am most assured of Miss Lin's ability to do things. In the future, you and I will definitely be able to make our business bigger and bigger together. Now that I'm fine, I'll leave now. Miss Lin will stay."

Lin Xi watched him go away and turned back to the yard.

Shen Chen and Wang Shou were cleaning up the mess in the yard, while Dabao and the other four were sitting on the side in an unruly manner. They were still looking at their new clothes for fear of getting them dirty by playing with them.

Lin Xi walked over quickly: "Brother Wang, you are a guest, how can I ask you to help? Stop it, sit down and rest."

"It doesn't matter."

Wang Shou shook his head.

Lin Xi looked at Shen Chen and motioned with his eyes to stop him. Unexpectedly, Shen Chen also said: "If he has free time, let him do it."

Lin Xi was convinced.

When she was about to help clean up, Shen Chen stopped her and said, "You've been tired all morning, go sit down."

"I'm fine, I'm not tired..."

Lin Xi had the nerve to let the guests work and rest by herself, but before she could finish her words, Dabao and the others pulled her over and kept pestering her, making it impossible for her to get out of work even if she wanted to.

Facts have proved that the two grown men, Shen Chen and Wang Shou, worked very quickly and quickly. It didn't take long to clean up the inside and outside, and also wash the pots and pans and put them away.

Wang Shou looked at the children and wanted to go over there, but suddenly heard Shen Chen say: "It's getting late, you should go."

"Brother Shen..."

Wang Shou barked.

He also wanted to play with the children.

Shen Chen glanced lightly, and Wang Shou immediately changed his words: "It's really late, let me leave first."

When Lin Xi saw this, Wang Shou left without even having time to say anything to persuade him to stay.

Lin Xi couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Shen Chen, how can you be so hospitable to guests? You drive them away as soon as they finish their work. I heard that he even prepared a gift for each of the children."
