The restaurant is now half decorated, and furniture and other items are still being made to order.

Chen Xi came over just to take a brief look. After all, the decoration required painting. Although the current paints are all made of natural materials, Chen Xi was not sure that it would not affect the body, so she just took a general look to make sure there was no problem and prepared. leave.

Anyway, the place where she wanted to act wasn't in a restaurant, she could just find a place with a lot of people.

The two of them came to the restaurant together, and the restaurant manager immediately welcomed them out and reported to Chen Xi the progress of the decoration and the recent recruitment.

"My boss, there is a woman named Lu Lingniang over there at Zhuangzi. She said that she was arranged by you, my boss, to work in the restaurant. I am preparing to ask you for instructions next time I report!"

Chen Xi chuckled: "You must know something about her. I promised to arrange a job for her in Chenji, so I arranged it with Zhuangzi."

The restaurant owner immediately understood what Chen Xi meant: "I understand, let her be at ease and do the processing at Zhuangzi!" With such a coquettish look, something bad will happen to her when she comes to the restaurant! He didn't want it in the first place, so he had to specifically ask for permission. Now that he had heard from the county master, he was even more confident!

Then Chen Xi left with Lin Changqing.

To be honest, if the shopkeeper hadn't mentioned Lu Lingniang, Chen Xi would have forgotten about her.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before she started to feel restless.

If a woman is really desperate and gets a job at Chenji, no matter where she is, she will be cautious and not dare to make any more extraordinary demands.

But now that the restaurant hasn't opened yet, she already wants to work in the restaurant!

Although Chenji Restaurant has not yet been renovated, it can be seen just now that the decoration is luxurious. People who come to dine here in the future will definitely be either rich or powerful, or prominent figures in the officialdom of Yunzhou City.

And maybe most of them are friends with Lin Changqing, so working in a restaurant, you can meet and interact with people that you can't compare to in Zhuangzi.

After all, Zhuangzi is mainly responsible for processing, and all the people coming in and out are nearby farmers. Apart from regular work, there is nothing else!

If Lu Lingniang was an enemy of the country and managed to sneak into Chen Ji and wanted to find out more, how could she be willing to waste time on Zhuangzi? They are bound to be trying to make further progress, but isn't this already giving away the clues?

Anyway, people have been sent over there to keep an eye on her, so Chen Xi doesn't need to do anything now. As long as she traps people on Zhuangzi, she will be able to get herself into trouble!

After coming out of the restaurant, Chen Xi and Lin Changqing did not take a carriage, but took a leisurely walk.

Lin Changqing knew that today's drama with Chen Xi was "love", so he was even more exaggerated than usual. No matter where Chen Xi went, he would be by her side, with one arm around her waist, looking at the person who was so intimate with her. look.

On the contrary, Chen Xi seemed "unwilling to cooperate". Lin Changqing bent down and seemed to be very close to her, while her waist was straight, not bent at all, and "uncooperative" at all!

In fact, Lin Changqing was afraid that she would be tired, so he put his arms behind her to make her a little more comfortable. And because Chen Xi was pregnant, it was naturally impossible for her to twist her waist like a twist, so she naturally had to straighten up!

But the way the two of them were walking along like this, in the eyes of those watching them, it meant that the couple was at odds, or that the loving image they had created in the past was finally exposed!

Mr. Lin seemed to be trying to be intimate, but he seemed to be unskilled and the posture of his arms and crutches was not correct!

As for the Huaishan County Lord, he didn't even bother to cooperate. He didn't get close to Mr. Lin at all, and he didn't even bother to look at him.

After finally walking for a while, Mr. Lin seemed to be annoyed. He turned around with a flick of his arm and got into the carriage.

County Lord Huaishan first stamped his feet, then glanced around, and finally suppressed the anger on his face, and then got into the carriage with the help of the maid, and the two of them left together.

In the afternoon, Chen Xi asked Meng He to investigate, and sure enough, there was already evidence that "Master Lin and the Huaishan County Master and his wife were at odds."

Meng He learned the rumors perfectly when he came back.

"Oh, there were rumors some time ago that the county chief had a quarrel with Mr. Lin and wanted to return to the capital, but no one believed it, but today, it turns out that it is [-]% true!"

"The couple never goes out in the past, especially County Master Huaishan. The few times they go out are just to show off their affection. Don't make it too obvious!"

"It's a pity that even the show of affection is not smooth. The first two times I went out, I was stopped by beautiful women. Last time I heard that I ran to the Xishan Mountains, and who knew I met bandits. This time I went back to the city, and the result was... Exposed!"

"You said that once the Lord of Huaishan County returns to the capital, will Chen Ji follow him? Chen Ji's cakes are quite delicious, so I'm a little reluctant to part with them!"

Meng He listened to people's comments on the street and around Chen Ji. When he came back to learn, he also showed some moves, making Chen Xi laugh non-stop all afternoon, and his voice was hoarse from laughter.

Meng He saw that Chen Xi's voice was hoarse from laughter, and he quickly stopped making trouble, secretly worried that the general would blame her when he saw his master like this when he came back at night.

Chen Xi quickly held tea to moisten his throat, and then said: "If I invite Mrs. Zhizhou to be a guest tomorrow, I will tell her that I am too busy at home, so she can bring a few people over."

After hearing this, Meng He immediately went out to deliver the message.

During dinner, Chen Xi's voice had recovered, making Dong Baozhen and Meng He who were waiting on the side secretly relieved.

Lin Changqing asked Chen Xi: "Do you need any further cooperation from me?"

"Just say you love me more outside!"

Lin Changqing raised his eyebrows, and then he understood.

Now that the rumors are getting more and more intense, when Lin Changqing tells people how much he loves and cares for County Master Huaishan, others will not take him seriously and will only think that he is deliberately explaining to reduce the impact of the rumors.

But explanations are sometimes just cover-ups, so the more he "explains" at this time, the more he can prove the authenticity of the rumors from the other side.

Lin Changqing sighed softly: "Then you must say more good things for me in the future to prove that I am really not a selfish 'heartless man'!"

"Hahaha, good, good, good, I will praise you tomorrow!"

Lin Changqing gave her a resentful look: "What's the difference between your praise now and what I said now? I mean in the future, in the future!"

"Hahaha, got it!"

The next day, Chen Xi got up and washed and had breakfast as usual, but today he dressed up specially. At that moment, Mrs. Zhizhou showed up with several wives of Yunzhou City officials.

To be able to achieve the position of governor of a prefecture, one must not be too young. And the husbands of the wives who befriended the governor's wife naturally had similar official positions and were not too young either.

Therefore, the youngest of the ladies who came today is about forty years old, and because this is the first time that Chen Xi has expressed his intention to invite people to his house, these ladies actually do not dare to bring their juniors, and they are all alone. Come respectfully.

For a moment, Chen Xi originally planned to take the opportunity to gossip, but suddenly he couldn't speak!

Chatting and gossiping with this group of people who can be mothers or even grandmothers is still a bit stressful for Chen Xi!

"Well, ladies, why don't you bring your daughters-in-law and granddaughter-in-law with you?"

Ladies, you look at me and I look at you, and you instantly realize that you have been too careful today.

The one who reacted quickly said immediately: "We were so excited when we heard that the county master invited us to be guests at his house. We didn't dare to make any mistakes for a while, so we didn't bring the juniors with us. However, the juniors are always ready. If If the county master doesn’t think it’s noisy, I’ll send someone home to call her. My wife there likes to gossip the most, so I’m afraid that if she comes, you might think it’s noisy!”

Chen Xi smiled and said: "It's not noisy, it's lively because there are so many people."

So in an instant, the wives of each family sent people back to invite their daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law, who were all about the same age as Chen Xi.

Because they have seen it today, the county mistress just wants to find someone to gossip with!
