100. Is it because of me, or because of my father-in-law

Lin Xi said vaguely: "It's not a big deal, it's too condescending to ask you." It doesn't matter, tomorrow at noon you and the children are at home, get some food for yourself, and I will come back in the afternoon to make hot pot for you. ”

Shen Chen was still frowning, looking at Lin Xi with dark eyes.

Lin Xi inexplicably had a dim sum deficiency.

No, what's wrong with her heart?

She didn't do anything to be sorry for Shen Chen, nor did she let Shen Chen's head go green.

Yes, just ignore it!

Lin Xi coughed twice and stood up, "What, I'm sleepy, it's time to sleep, you should go to bed early." ”

Shen Chen stared at her and hummed in a deep voice.

Lin Xi immediately turned around and ran back to the room.

Shen Chen sat in place for a while, pinched his fingertips, and frowned deeper.

What kind of help, why would you rather find Wang Shougang than him?

He doesn't know yet.

No wonder Wang Shou hasn't bothered him anymore in the past few days.

Why not ask him for help?

……

The next day, Lin Xi had breakfast at home, and then took Uncle Li's ox cart to the county. She came to bring a dozen taels this time, and it was almost noon when she arrived at Fulai Building, and Fulai Building was busy.

Still at the door, Lin Xi smelled the smell of hot pot inside.

The bottom material is indeed similar to that of Keyunlou, but it is indescribably strange.

Lin Xi looked at the plaque of Fulai Building, raised his feet and walked in, the first floor inside was already full, it was lively, and there was a table on the side of the staircase not far away, with a lot of spices on it, and the layout was similar to that of Keyun Building.

Suddenly, Wang Yaozu's voice sounded: "Miss Lin." ”

Lin Xi saw that Wang Yaozu came out of the back kitchen, which aroused the ideas of many guests.

Approaching him, Wang Yaozu smiled enthusiastically: "Miss Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing lately?" ”

Lin Xi glanced at the guests who were eating hot pot on the first floor, and said, "I'm okay, but the king is in charge of you, it seems that this time is really busy." It's amazing to be so busy and be able to notice the movements of other restaurants. ”

Wang Yaozu said: "Coincidentally, I have a distant relative who saw this way of eating in other places, and thought that I was opening a restaurant, so he brought it over to me." I don't like what he means, so I tried to do it, but I didn't expect there to be a lot of people who like it. ”

Lin Xi said: "That's really a coincidence, does Keyunlou also have a distant relative like Wang Zhangshi?" ”

"Miss Lin, I don't understand what I mean. It's all about doing business together, and there's no reason why anyone can do it and who can't do it, right? Wang Yaozu said with a smile.

Lin Xi admired Wang Yaozu a little, he could talk nonsense so calmly.

What Wang Yaozu said is also right, hot pot is not Keyunlou's own color, he can do it if he wants, in public, she has nothing to say.

"I heard that the hot pot in Fulai Lou is really good, Wang Zhangshi, I don't know if I have a place now?" Lam Creek Road.

Wang Zhangshi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Lin Xi.

After a moment, he smiled and said, "Naturally, there is." Miss Lin, there is no place on the first floor, how about moving to a private room on the second floor? I, Wang, personally accompanied Miss Lin. ”

"That's a lot of trouble for the king." Lam Creek Road.

Wang Yaozu didn't even say that it was troublesome, and led Lin Xi to a private room upstairs, asked the guy to make tea, and said, "What soup base does Miss Lin want to eat?" What do you want to eat? ”

"I don't understand, Wang Zhang, you can watch it. Fortunately, I have enough money for today's business, and I am not afraid that I will have no money to spend. Lin Xi said unhurriedly.

Wang Yaozu called the guy and whispered a few words in his ear, and the guy went out.

There was silence in the private room.

Wang Yaozu looked at Lin Xi and said, "Miss Lin, I didn't expect you to be interested in visiting Wang's shop." ”

"Look at what the king said, I, Linxi, am a small common man, and I am flattered that the king can specially entertain me."

"Miss Lin thinks like this, I'm afraid that the county lieutenant won't know what to do."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Xi raised his head and met Wang Yaozu's gaze.

Wang Yaozu seemed to be a little surprised, and said, "Miss Lin, don't you know yet?" Your father-in-law has a lot to do with the county lieutenant. Even the county lieutenant treated the two of you with courtesy, and Wang naturally didn't dare to offend. ”

Lin Xi pondered Wang Yaozu's words in his heart.

Did he mistakenly think that Shen Chen was a backstager?

"The king is joking, my father-in-law is just a hunter, and he doesn't deserve what you say."

"Miss Lin, you are too modest."

Wang Yaozu smiled slightly.

Lin Xi frowned secretly.

Soon, the guy brought up the hot pot with the soup base, as well as the side dishes that had been prepared.

Lin Xi didn't ask for seasoning, and when he smelled the smell of hot pot, he frowned even more.

It's tomato bottom, but how does it smell as weird as she smells outside?

"Miss Lin, what's wrong?" Wang Yaozu was kind and very caring.

Lin Xi picked up the chopsticks and said, "Ming people don't say dark words. Wang Zhangshi, I think you already know very well that the hot pot in Keyunlou was proposed by me. Should I say you're big-hearted, or what? Aren't you afraid that I will come this time and taste how your hot pot ingredients are made? Then go back to Keyunlou and let Keyunlou follow suit? ”

Wang Yaozu was not surprised, and said: "If Miss Lin tastes it, it is your ability." However, my Fulai Building also has a unique secret recipe, Miss Lin, you can't taste it. ”

Lin Xi glanced at him, grabbed a chopstick and ate the dish.

In an instant, Lin Xi's eyes condensed slightly.

Wang Yaozu had been paying attention to her, and when he saw this, he sat up slightly straight, and asked kindly, "How is it?" ”

Lin Xi squeezed his chopsticks tightly, and spit on the plate on the side without changing his face, "I'm really sorry, I can't eat this dish, I used to get a rash all over my body as soon as I ate it, and it was very dangerous." ”

The smile on the corner of Wang Yaozu's mouth deepened, and he said slowly: "Miss Lin, I know that you are very good at cooking. Sometimes the skills are not as good as people, and it is normal, how about it, my unique secret recipe of Fulai Lou is not the kind of your Keyun Building, right? ”

Lin Xi was silent for a few seconds, "Indeed." ”

Wang Yaozu said: "You are a smart person, why did you come, I Wang also know." But, Miss Lin, are you really sure that you must help Zhao Dequan? ”

Lin Xi looked at him, "What does Wang Zhangshi want to say?" ”

"Wang's words are still valid before, if Miss Lin is willing to come to my Fulai Building, Wang will definitely treat her with courtesy."

"Is it because of me, or because of my father-in-law?"

When the words fell, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly froze.

The smile on Wang Yaozu's face disappeared little by little, and he said after a while: "Miss Lin, you are a smart person. My Wang has always had a good relationship with the government, and he has a lot of money, so he can give you what you want. Doing business with me will do Miss Lin no harm, right? ”

Lin Xi understood.

Wang Yaozu mistakenly thought that Shen Chen had a relationship in the government.

not only wants her to help make money, but also wants Shen Chen to show his face more in the government.

She spoke: "Don't say anything else, I admire Wang Zhang's ability to daydream for you." ”
