After dinner, when Shen Lian sent the county order and the prefect to leave, he deliberately asked.

"What kind of official position is this Yin Chen's father?" Without waiting for the county order to answer, Chu Xi looked surprised, "You mean, Yin Chen's father is also an official, right?" ”

"yes, don't you know? The prefectural magistrate knows it. ”

I saw that the county commander was embarrassed, and said mysteriously, "There are some things that we can't discuss, in short, it's not that simple, don't ask more." ”

After speaking, he directly pulled Chu Xi away.

The more you refuse to say anything, the more it means that there is a problem in it, and if it is just an ordinary petty official, then you will definitely not be so embarrassed.

Probably because the official position is too high, so there is no way to leak it at all, for fear that something will happen again, so he will hide it like this, right? Just as Shen Lian was standing at the door thinking about this matter, Yin Chen walked out.

"What are you doing standing stupidly? Everyone is gone, and you still don't want to go back? Shen Lian raised her head, looked at him and asked solemnly, "I want to ask you something, can you answer me?" ”

"Just ask."

"What is your father's official position? I always feel that your identity is not so simple, I just went to ask the county order, he didn't say anything, can you tell me? She never thought that she would ask herself such a question, and Yin Chen didn't know how to answer it for a while.

After a moment of silence, he spoke again.

"Actually, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but there are some things I really can't say, because my current situation is a little dangerous, if my identity is revealed, it is very likely to invite death, so, please forgive me, now is not the time to tell you, give me some more time, you will know."

These words really disappointed Shen Lian, but he didn't expect that he still didn't tell himself after all.

However, there was no way to do it, he didn't want to say it, and he couldn't put a knife on his neck to force him to say everything.

In that case, don't ask any more.

"Okay, anyway, it's your own business, and it has nothing to do with me, I'm just a little curious, and I won't ask anything more in the future."

After dropping these words, she went straight back to her room.

I didn't expect her mood to change so much all of a sudden, although she said that it didn't have any relationship, but this state was immediately visible, and she still minded that she didn't tell her the truth.

In this regard, Yin Chen could only sigh helplessly.

Because it's really not time yet, we have to wait for the right time.

I hope she can understand her own difficulty, after all, the capital is eyeing her, if she finds that she is still alive, she will definitely think of other ways to cure herself to death, and if she wants to escape again, I am afraid it is unlikely, so she can only hide herself as much as possible.

After Shen Lian returned to the room, he sat on the bed angrily.

But soon she also felt her unusual temper, she was very understanding, and besides, her emotions would hardly fluctuate so much, let alone sulk for such a trivial matter, what was wrong? Suddenly, she showed a shocked expression, because she had a premonition of a bad thing, and felt that it was very possible, so she was naturally very worried, once this thing came true, then what should she do in the future?

Shen Lian didn't like other people before, but that person was a scumbag, just together, she found that the person was stepping on two boats, which made her sad for a long time.

Since then, she has devoted herself to her work and has achieved good results.

But the emotional aspect has always been blank, but I didn't expect that after coming here unexpectedly, I met Yin Chen, and I actually had a little affection for him.

This made her feel extremely frightened, after all, she also knew very well what it meant to like someone.

Fortunately, she didn't show it, otherwise, in this era, people would be considered not a simple woman, and I don't know how much slander and pressure she has to bear.

Secretly relieved, without thinking about anything more, she lay down on the bed and fell asleep directly.

At breakfast the next day, perhaps because of some weakness, Shen Lian kept her head down all the time and never raised it at all.

And all of this is in the eyes of Old Man Wang, since she is now his own daughter-in-law, it is necessary to plan for her future.

After getting along for a while, he felt that Yin Chen was not bad.

Although it is not clear what his family background is, judging from his speech and demeanor, he should be either rich or expensive, and after following Shen Lian's side for a long time, there should be some kind of affection between the two of them.

After thinking about it so simply, Old Man Wang took the initiative to speak and looked at Yin Chen, "How old are you this year?" ”

"Nineteen."

"Are you married?" was asked by him suddenly, Yin Chen was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head, "No, I don't have it yet, it's far away from home, so I haven't considered this aspect for the time being." ”

After hearing this satisfactory answer, Old Man Wang laughed.

"I think you and Li'er have always gotten along very well, and they have cooperated very well at work, so it's better for the two of you to be together."

"Father-in-law!" Shen Lian pretended to be angry, but in fact blushed shyly.

And Yin Chen never expected that Old Man Wang would bring up this matter, but he didn't expect it, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Seeing that he was hesitant, Old Man Wang was a little unhappy.

"What? You still don't want to? What a good girl my poor child, don't you know how to cherish it! ”

"No, you misunderstood me."

Yin Chen hurriedly defended, "After all, the time is not yet ripe, and it is indeed a bit abrupt to get married, and besides, my parents don't know about this matter yet, and I need to tell them about it, but I really like Shen Lian very much." ”

Shen Lian was still a little angry about his first half of the sentence, because he deliberately went around the bend to say such things to himself to reject him, but the latter words made her mood instantly excited.

It's a very exciting thing to like someone who likes herself, but at the same time, she is also faintly worried in her heart, afraid that she will meet a scumbag again this time.

You must know that scumbags are not divided into dynasties, and there are scumbags in any era.

Therefore, even when she heard those words that made her happy, she kept reminding herself to be careful, not to fall into sweet words, not to follow the old path she had walked again, this time, she had to remember it for a long time.

Shen Lian and Yin Chen have tacit understanding each other's intentions now, even if they haven't said anything, they can understand each other's thoughts.

On this day, she was discussing the next management system with the prefect in the county government, when suddenly the pillar who sold steamed buns came over.

Seeing that he looked hurried and very anxious, both of them knew that something must have happened, otherwise, they would not be so anxious.

"Is something wrong?" Shen Lian asked curiously.

"The money I recently earned was stolen from my home, and I don't know when it was taken, I don't know what to do, but I saved it for more than a year."

Chu Xi comforted him briefly, "Don't worry, take us back to your house to have a look." ”

Losing something is actually a very common thing in this era, and it is not an uncommon thing at all, generally even if you lose something, it is enough to get it back, because it is very difficult.

If no one sees it, then the money is lost, and there is no way to know who the person who stole the money is.

On the way there, Chu Xi asked, "Have you asked your neighbors in the neighborhood if anyone has seen anyone coming out of your house?" ”

"I asked before I came, and they all said they didn't know, and I really didn't know what to do, so I had to come here and ask my lord to see if I could help get the money back."
