Lin Ziwen and Shen Lingxiu thanked the village chief and then returned home.

"Lingxiu, thanks to you, otherwise ......" Lin Ziwen wanted to speak and stopped, this matter was indeed thanks to Shen Lingxiu, if it weren't for her, she estimated that he would be misunderstood by everyone.

"It's okay, I'm just on a bad road." Shen Lingxiu touched her hair embarrassedly and said.

I thought it would be over, but I didn't expect it to be otherwise.

Zhao Yuan went out and didn't return, Mrs. Zhao sent someone to inquire about the news, but she didn't expect the people in the village to stop saying that Lin Ziwen was not, she was very angry at the time, this was obviously Lin Ziwen's fault, if he confiscated the tuition, their family's two taels of silver could disappear inexplicably!

Mrs. Zhao went out at that time and went straight to the village chief's house.

"Village chief, you come out, I have something to say." Mrs. Zhao stood in front of the village chief's house.

"You're too partial, protect Lin Ziwen in your village." Mrs. Zhao's angry accusations.

"Dad, no, that Mrs. Zhao is here again, why don't you go and hide?" The boss of the Su family ran into the door to report the news, but was scolded by the village chief.

"What are you hiding, I don't care! Go out and have a look. The old village chief threw his beard out the door.

"Village chief, you have to give me an explanation." Mrs. Zhao sat on the chair brought by the servant and looked at the village chief with a slight raised face.

"Mrs. Zhao, when you came yesterday, the old man happened to be absent, and the hospitality was not good and neglected. Let's talk about something in the house. ”

The village chief opened his mouth and said, this is not a big deal at the door, and those who don't know think that something happened to their family!

"No need, just give me an explanation in front of the villagers." Mrs. Zhao looked unforgiving.

"Cuiyu, go to the Lin family and call Lin Ziwen and the Lin family." The village chief's face was also not good-looking.

Each side is bound to make it clear in front of the gong and the drum.

Lin Ziwen had just gotten up for a while, and he was taking advantage of the spirit of the early morning, holding a book and reading.

"Brother Ziwen! Go and take a look, Mrs. Zhao came to my father again and said that she wanted an explanation. Su Cuiyu panted and pushed open the door and spoke.

Lin Ziwen frowned, why did Mrs. Zhao come, he realized that things were very tricky.

Shen Lingxiu in the kitchen also heard about it, took off her apron and came out, pulling Lin Ziwen out, she wanted to see what kind of nonsense this Mrs. Zhao was.

A few people went to the village chief's house, and there were already a lot of people around, and when they saw Lin Ziwen coming, the people along the way consciously got out of the way.

"Yo, this sanctimonious master, are you embarrassed to come over?" Mrs. Zhao saw Lin Ziwen and spoke.

"Things haven't been figured out yet, so it's not good to make personal attacks." Shen Lingxiu stood in front and spoke.

"Who are you, your turn to speak?" Mrs. Zhao was very unhappy when she saw Shen Lingxiu standing up for Lin Ziwen.

"I'm Mrs. Lin, do you think I'm qualified?" Shen Lingxiu spoke.

"Just in time, give us back the tuition." Mrs. Zhao turned to Shen Lingxiu and spoke.

"This Mrs. Zhao, I'm afraid you don't know it yet, we have already explained it clearly yesterday, Zhao Xiaobao did not pay the tuition, how can a mere school charge two taels of silver? Aren't you blatant slander? ”

"If you say confiscate, you will confiscate, how can this convince the public? I saw with my own eyes that our master gave Xiaobao two taels of silver to pay for tuition. Mrs. Zhao spoke.

Shen Lingxiu looked at Mrs. Zhao, it didn't seem like she was joking, so could it be that Zhao Xiaobao made a ghost.

Lin Ziwen took out the receipt of the tuition fee and showed it to Mrs. Zhao, there was indeed no name of Zhao Xiaobao on it, and several parents who were present that day also testified that Zhao Xiaobao did not pay the tuition at that time.

"Just on a piece of paper, you just say that we didn't hand it in, and it is possible that you deliberately didn't write it!" Mrs. Zhao alleged that she firmly believed that Zhao Xiaobao had paid the tuition.

She pulled Zhao Xiaobao in her hand and asked in a low voice.

"You and your mother are honest, did you pay the tuition?" Zhao Xiaobao nodded and swore to speak.

"I'll pay it!" If they knew that they had spent two taels of silver by themselves, they would definitely be beaten.

"Everyone heard it, the children have said it, our Xiaobao never lied to me!" Mrs. Zhao spoke.

"If you pay for it, everyone will see it." Shen Lingxiu's words aroused everyone's response.

"yes, that's right, you should be able to see it if you pay the money."

"Isn't it!"

"I ...... I was later handed over to my family. Zhao Xiaobao spoke anxiously.

Shen Lingxiu smiled instead, this Zhao Xiaobao is really a good seedling of lying, and it is estimated that Mrs. Zhao was also fooled by him. She took a step forward and got closer to Zhao Xiaobao, and it was obvious that Zhao Xiaobao was a little scared.

"What are you going to do? Mother, save me! ”

"Don't be afraid, I just wanted to ask you a few words." Shen Lingxiu smiled.

"Zhao Xiaobao, you said that you sent it to your home, then you say, which direction is our house in?"

Shen Lingxiang was extremely gentle, and the brightness in her eyes flashed.

"Here,"

"No, no, it's in this direction." Zhao Xiaobao pointed to his finger and couldn't say the specific direction.

"You don't know our family, do you, so how do you pay for the tuition?" Shen Lingxiu shrugged her shoulders and said with a smile.

"Yes, I don't know, how do I go to pay the tuition at home." The villagers also agreed with Shen Lingxiu's statement and opened their mouths to question.

Mrs. Zhao also stared at Zhao Xiaobao in front of her, looking at it with suspicion.

"Say, tell me the truth!"

"I ...... I, the two taels of silver, let me spend it. Zhao Xiaobao said tremblingly.

"What?! You little bunny! How dare you lie to me! Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she rolled up her sleeves and was about to beat Zhao Xiaobao, but Zhao Xiaobao slipped away as soon as she let go of her legs.

Mrs. Zhao can be said to be disgraced, changed her usual aggressive appearance, hung her head, and walked out of the crowd.

The villagers shouted, "Why don't you settle the account?" ”

Mrs. Zhao pretended not to hear it, walked quickly, and disappeared after a while.

"This Mrs. Zhao, really, delayed everyone's efforts in vain, and poured dirty water on Ziwen! Not a good thing! ”

The villagers began to talk about it.

"It's not, she was on the throne back then, and she forced Zhao Yuan to take a leave of absence, see, her son is not a good thing!"

"That's right."

Chi Huifang got the news and wanted to rush over to see the excitement of Lin Ziwen and Shen Lingxiu, but she didn't expect to be a step late, only to see Mrs. Zhao leave the village with a disgraced face.

Shen Lingxiu's face did not change, thanked the villagers who supported them, and then pulled Lin Ziwen home.

Lin Ziwen is very grateful to Shen Lingxiu, if it weren't for her, he would definitely be troubled.

It didn't take long for Shen Lingxiu to make breakfast, and it was a little late today, so she took a piece of dry food and hurriedly went to the town.

Lin Ziwen looked at her back and felt very stable, what kind of person is Shen Lingxiu, he has also thought about it in the past few days, every time something happens, it will give him a new understanding.

She is a smart and kind, hard-working, and clever person, not tall, with a small body, but it seems to be a shining point, illuminating Lin Ziwen's heart.

Lin Ziwen found that Shen Lingxiu was grinding corn, asked Ah Bao, and knew that she would come back every day to grind for a while, and seeing that there were still more than half of the baskets, he decided to help Shen Lingxiu.

On this day, Shen Lingxiu came back from the stall and saw Lin Ziwen sitting in a serious way grinding corn, wearing a long shirt, which really didn't match the tools in her hand, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Lingxiu, you're back." Lin Ziwen saw her come back and greeted her.

"What are you ......," Shen Lingxiu asked with a smile.

"I'll help you grind corn!" Lin Ziwen replied, lowered his head and continued the work in his hands.

Shen Lingxiu washed her hands and grinded them together.

The two of them grinded one by one and put corn into it, chatting with each other, and passed very quickly.

Division of labor and cooperation, in the process of two people's hands accidentally touched together, the gentle touch came over, warm touch, although I do a lot of things every day, but Shen Lingxiu's hands are not badly maintained, they are still soft and slippery, yes, it is a pair of girl's hands.

made Lin Ziwen reluctant to let go, as if it was the most beautiful thing in the world.

Shen Lingxiu was stunned for a short time, she coughed, and Lin Ziwen let go of her hand, "You grabbed my hand, don't you want me to work!" ”

She said jokingly, but Lin Ziwen took it seriously and explained in a hurry.

"No, no, no, it's not me......" Seeing his stammering appearance, Shen Lingxiu knew that he must be serious.

"Alright, I'm kidding!" It's too boring, Shen Lingxiu lowered her head and was busy with the things in her hands.

And Lin Ziwen saw that Shen Lingxiu was no longer talking, thinking that she was angry, and secretly examined what she had done wrong or said wrong.

"Look at you, you look like the newly married little lady in Brother Tian's house next door." Seeing Lin Ziwen biting her lip slightly and lowering her head, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and her eyebrows were clear, she couldn't help but tease.

"Lingxiu, you're talking nonsense again!" When Shen Lingxiu said that, his face turned red, red like a ripe apple.

"Yes, now it's like a big apple grown at Sister-in-law Zhang's house, I'll see if it's ripe, and I'll take it down and taste it when it's ripe!" As he spoke, he touched Lin Ziwen's face.

Lin Ziwen couldn't dodge, and his face was stained with some freshly ground yellow cornmeal, red, white and yellow, like a horn who only comes to sing during the New Year's Festival.

Po listened to the laughter in the yard and ran over.

"Third uncle, your face! Hahahahaha...... "I couldn't stop laughing when I saw it.

"Bao, you also tease your third uncle!" Lin Ziwen pretended to be angry, and was about to drag Ah Bao over to tickle it.

"Aunt Three, save me! The third uncle is going to bully the children! Ah Bao hurriedly hid in Shen Lingxiu's arms.
