Chen Xi shook his head: "I have no evidence, but I remember that Tian was always looking at Zhang. If this matter has nothing to do with Zhang, why would Tian look at her?"

Huo Xianjun was silent for a moment before saying, "I will investigate this matter and I will definitely give you a satisfactory result, Miss Chen!"

Chen Xi quickly said: "I am just guessing, it may not really be related to the county magistrate's wife."

Then Lin Changqing, Huo Xianjun, Liao Dashan and the others left, and Chen Xi returned to Shanghe Village with the Chen family.

After this incident, Chen Xi came up with an idea. She planned to find some strong men and women, preferably with some skills, to be the bodyguards of the Chen family!

For example, Lin Changqing and Huo Xianjun are already very powerful, but they always have a few guards around them.

These guards can protect them when they are in danger, and can also help them with things in normal times.

If there were bodyguards around her today, even if they were not bodyguards but well-trained maids and servants, they would not be easily dismissed by Zhang Ling, and what happened today would not have happened.

Chen Xi rested at home for two days and finally came back to life with full blood, and even his tongue no longer hurt.

At this time, someone came to deliver a letter to her, explaining that the trial of Zhang Ling and Tian was about to begin in the county government, and the verdict would be announced in court. She asked Chen Xi and the Chen family if they wanted to go and take a look.

Chen Xi naturally wants to watch it, and everyone in the Chen family doesn't want to miss the scene of Zhang Ling and Tian's fight.

This interrogation was not open to the public, but everyone who was supposed to come came.

Everyone from the Chen family, everyone from the Guo family, Lin Changqing and others, and there were also people from the Zhang family.

In just a few days, Mr. Zhang went from being smart and capable to becoming haggard and haggard. Although he has changed today

He was wearing brand new clothes, but he still needed help while standing there.

In the court, Magistrate Song was sitting at the top, while Zhang Ling and Tian were kneeling below.

A few days passed, but the wounds on Zhang Ling's face had not healed. He lay motionless on the ground, his hands wrapped in thick rags.

Mrs. Zhang, Mrs. Tian, ​​was also kneeling beside her. She was wearing an ill-fitting prison uniform, her hair was messy and her expression was dull.

Chen Xi still remembered that when Mrs. Zhang saw her that day, she looked at her disdainfully with her chin raised, and finally extended her hand to help her as if benevolently.

At some point she might have decided to harm her!

So she knew that she would be insulted by Zhang Ling, and in the end she would have to marry Zhang Ling for the sake of reputation, and that she would become her mother-in-law, and she had already set the record for her mother-in-law in advance!

Chen Xi looked around for another week, but did not find Zhang, the county magistrate's wife. It seemed that Huo Xianjun had not found any evidence about Zhang in the past few days.

Could it be that she was overthinking it?

Thinking of the county magistrate's wife, Chen Xi couldn't help but look up at the county magistrate, Mr. Song.

She remembered that Master Song said to her that day, "Today is a good day for you."

Chen Xi also spent the past two days at home carefully thinking about everything that day. When he thought of this sentence, he suddenly suspected that not only Mrs. Song was involved, but even County Magistrate Song might know something about it!

But if that’s the case, that’s too scary!

What on earth did she do that disgusted the magistrate and his wife?

Today's interrogation is actually just a process, because it has already been cleared up in private.

No matter what the magistrate said, Tian only answered yes, while Zhang Ling still lay there half dead. In the end, the county magistrate exterminated his relatives out of righteousness and sentenced Zhang Ling to twenty

Tian was exiled for ten years and all his family property was confiscated.

Everyone in the courtroom except the Zhang family cheered!

When the yamen officers stepped forward to take Zhang Ling and Tian away, Zhang Ling suddenly turned to look at Chen Xi.

Chen Xi's heart skipped a beat, but before she could react, Huo Xianjun was already standing in front of her the next moment.

Zhang Ling suddenly became excited and shouted "woo woo woo".

But no matter how much he screamed, he couldn't say a word. This state was clearly like Chen Xi biting his tongue before!

But maybe Zhang Ling didn't just bite his tongue!

Chen Xi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and an idea flashed across his mind.

At this time, Huo Xianjun turned around and showed concern for her: "Miss Chen, you are not scared, are you? Don't worry, you will never see him again from now on!"

Chen Xi was still a little uneasy. He smiled reluctantly when he heard this, but his eyes were still looking at the place where Zhang Ling disappeared, and it seemed that he could still hear the "woo woo woo" sound he made.

Magistrate Song didn't know when he came to her side and suddenly said: "Miss Chen, I'm sorry!"

Chen Xi was startled and said quickly: "Master County Magistrate, please don't say that. Thank you so much. You are the reincarnation of Bao Qingtian. Everyone in the Chen family will remember your kindness today!"

Magistrate Song smiled bitterly: "Miss Chen, please don't do this. Zhang Ling is my nephew. I should apologize to you for my poor discipline."

Chen Xi could only say "no, no" repeatedly.

Then Magistrate Song left, and everyone also left the Yamen.

Lin Changqing remained silent from beginning to end. Before leaving, he said to Chen Xi: "I will send a few people over in a few days and ask them to train a group of guards. I am very good at protecting the processing plant."

Not satisfied! "

Chen Xi said in surprise: "That's what I had in mind. Since General Lin sent someone here, it would be perfect."

Huo Xianjun on the side said again: "Then I will find some female guards for you to protect you at any time in the future!"

Chen Xi blinked: "Ah, I'm really sleepy. Give me a pillow. How did General Huo know that I wanted to find a guard?"

Huo Xianjun raised his eyebrows: "It seems that Miss Chen and I have a good understanding!"

Lin Changqing rolled his eyes and turned around and left!

Huo Xianjun laughed out loud, and then said to Chen Xi: "Just wait for my news, and I will find someone for you as soon as possible!"

"Okay, thank you General Huo!"

After only his family was left, Chen Xi solemnly told everyone, "Everyone must be careful when going out during this period. Never travel alone. Be sure to find someone to accompany you."

Seeing Chen Xi's careful explanation, everyone was confused.

"Xiao Xi, is someone trying to harm us?"

Chen Xi shook his head: "I don't know, I just always feel a little uneasy in my heart. It may be my misunderstanding, but there is nothing wrong with being careful!"

The next day, Lin Changqing sent several people, all veterans who had retired due to injuries on the battlefield.

Although they are all disabled, you can tell they are ruthless people just by looking at their eyes.

Chen Xi served people delicious food and drinks. When several veterans were training to guard the processing plant, Chen Xi specially asked Chen You and Chen Zhuo to follow them to learn a few tricks. He also asked Chen Qi and Guo Xingyuan, who were studying in the academy, to come to the processing plant when they were free. Let’s train together, because if you master kung fu, you might be able to save your life in the future!

The female escorts Huo Xianjun had found were soon delivered. They were two sisters, the elder sister Shi Xia and the younger sister Shi Qiu. The two of them followed Chen Xi and never left.

.

Jingye is very dedicated, but they look as if someone is going to harm her at any time. There is always a slight disturbance, and both of them are very nervous. Chen Xi is always nervous.

She secretly decided that when she found the right person, the two sisters should be returned to Huo Xianjun. She couldn't bear it!

Although something bad happened on the opening day of the hot pot restaurant, the business of the hot pot restaurant has been booming in the past month, and it is full of customers every day.

Some people even take a boat to Qingshui County just to eat Chenji hot pot and Chenji steamed buns.

Chen Xi originally planned to open Chenji Hot Pot Restaurant in Linxian County as soon as possible, but Huo Xianjun seemed to be very busy during this period and had no time to pay attention to business matters. Chen Xi could only wait for him to finish his work before talking about the opening. Anyway, the weather is hot now, which is not a good time to eat hot pot. It’s not too late to open before autumn and winter come.

Recently, she has been staying on Quay Street all day, thinking about making some delicious summer drinks. She plans to open a drink shop next to the hot pot restaurant. The business will be very good!

When she came back from buying ice that day, she saw Huo Xianjun waiting for him in the beverage shop that had been renovated but not yet open for business.

As soon as he saw her, Huo Xianjun said, "Miss Chen, are you ready for your promise to me?"

Chen Xi laughed: "General Huo, I have not forgotten your birthday and am preparing for it!"

Who knew that Huo Xianjun suddenly approached, stared at her with faint eyes and said, "But Chen Xi, I can't wait any longer! Can I celebrate my birthday in advance?"

Huo Xianjun's behavior made Chen Xi a little embarrassed.

She took a step back slightly: "Of course it is

Okay, General Huo, when do you want to go? I'm ready to prepare! "

"No need to prepare! Just today!"

Chen Xi was surprised: "So urgent? What happened?"

Huo Xianjun took a deep breath: "I'm going to lead the troops to fight against the pirates!"

Chen Xi's heart skipped a beat: "You..."

"So before I leave, I want you to celebrate my birthday in advance!"

"In this case, why not choose a different day and I'll make you a fruit smoothie!"

Huo Xianjun stared at Chen Xi and slowly shook his head, "No, this is not what I want!"

Chen Xi said nothing.

Huo Xianjun came closer: "Miss Chen is so smart, does she really not understand what I mean?"

Chen Xi took a breath slowly.

Huo Xianjun, he finally said it!

She thought he was going to keep having an affair with her!
