Siheyuan: Qin Huairu is a lucky charm for her husband
Chapter 2261 Gossip and Chatter
When Tuo saw that the two brothers were about to take credit, he immediately interrupted them.
You guys got scratched by a bunch of women! And you still have the nerve to say that here? Don't you know how shameful that is?
"Stop playing the victim in front of us. What kind of injuries are these? Our pot's face was swollen from being slapped and he didn't complain at all! These days, if you want to sit at a banquet, you have to pay the price. You guys better come over and help with the work."
Before, Madam Luo often went hungry, but since moving into the courtyard house, she no longer had to worry about going hungry. As for the occasional fights, she wasn't afraid; as long as she wasn't hungry, what did a fight matter?
These two guys were immediately displeased upon hearing this. No one from Jiudaowanzi had left their house. Guo Da Piezi and his group had easily brought back supplies; what did that have to do with your man, Pan Guozi?
"Luo, what are you yelling about! What does your Pan Guozi's swollen face have to do with us? Do you know that we brothers were just chased and scratched by five or six women? We were scratched while we were out for some fresh air, and we were freezing all night."
These two simpletons were insignificant figures in the courtyard house, completely unaware of any major events that occurred there. Therefore, they had no idea what had happened last night!
However, Peng Jizhong could be considered to have benefited from misfortune. He painstakingly brought Liang Ladi all the way to Beijing. As a result, the young girl earned her position as the second-in-command of the Lin family through her own merits. Since the boy wasn't stubborn and wouldn't hold a grudge, Lin Chen naturally didn't make things difficult for him.
Now, not only has she married a girl from Beijing, but Lin Chen has also cured her liver disease. At least she no longer has to hang her on the wall, so it wasn't a waste of time to help Secretary Lin send his wife over.
Seeing that they still dared to be stubborn, Luo gave them a disdainful look.
"What do you know! Jiudaowanzi didn't leave the house, but Lao Niu and his gang at the front gate made their move! Second Uncle led the whole courtyard to help them last night, did you know that?"
Just as the mother camel was about to continue spewing at the two brothers, Xu Hechun walked over.
"Are you out of your mind, Luo? What are you yelling about? My man went to keep watch early last night and had no idea what was going on. Besides, it was a task assigned by Second Uncle. They weren't doing any private work. It's only because Tong Zhi and the others didn't go out. But if they had gone out, wouldn't that have highlighted the importance of my brother and Lao Peng?"
After confronting Luo Shi, Xu Hechun immediately dragged Peng Jizhong home. While others might not care about Peng Jizhong, Xu Hechun greatly admired him. He was obedient and knew how to flatter; she could criticize others, but not him.
The women didn't argue with them; they just watched the three men leave and chuckled to themselves.
I thought these two would have the easiest task, but they ended up with their faces all scratched up.
"Tsk tsk tsk, you guys don't know, do you! At home, Chamen Zhong calls her 'Grandma,' and he even helps her..."
"No way! Is it a foot bath?"
"Our hometowns are just across the wall, what don't I know? You guys have no idea how much of a womanizer Xu Hechun is..."
Several women burst into laughter; whenever they got together, they would gossip about this person and that person…
"Stop, stop, stop. Let's not talk about that couple. Let's clean the fish and vegetables first. Old He will need them later."
"Guangfu, all of you go fetch water and deliver it to the kitchen. Don't just sit around, get moving! We'll have braised pork for lunch..."
A bunch of little rascals were practically drooling when their aunt mentioned they were having braised pork. So they all went home to fetch buckets of water and get ready to work...
Yan Jiedi and the other young girls helped wash and pick vegetables, and most of the people in the courtyard were laughing. They showed no sign of the distress their husbands had suffered after being beaten… because they knew Uncle Lin would treat them when he woke up.
It's normal to be knocked down and unable to get out of bed; after all, if you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. At worst, you'll just have to lie in bed for a few days, and you'll be more careful next time!
Take Qiao Buwang, for example. He can't attend the banquet now, but his wife and kids can! All in all, he's still making a profit.
The Qiao family's son, daughter-in-law, and daughter. The Qiao family almost took up half the table, so the old man getting injured was a win-win situation.

Lin Chen had already gone out to wash up, while Liu Haizhong, despite his injuries, came to report on the battle situation last night.
Even a Pyrrhic victory is still a victory! As long as nothing was lost, a few people lying down isn't shameful. Besides, those who were lying down deserved it; Liu Haizhong can't help but laugh when he thinks about it now.
However, the short whip that Master Niu brought also struck Liu Haizhong, and there is still a bloody mark on Old Liu's face.
It's only because Liu Haizhong is tough and resilient that he survived this attack; otherwise, he would have been in serious trouble.
"Brother Lin has all his supplies, not a single ounce left, and we even drove that old bull away. It's just that our men have suffered some injuries too..."
Lin Chen frowned and raised his hand to examine the mark that was more than ten centimeters long, running from Liu Haizhong's cheek to his neck.
"Your skin is a little broken! But thankfully it didn't fester. Come to my house later and I'll put some ointment on it for you. I promise it won't leave a scar. Be more careful next time you go out."
When Liu Haizhong heard that Brother Lin was going to apply the ointment to him, he was almost moved to tears.
"Thank you for your concern, Brother Lin. These are just minor injuries. Old Yi and the others are really in trouble this time! But isn't it a coincidence that all the traitors with criminal records from our institute fell? That's quite interesting. The people at Qianmen are pretty good at picking their targets."
Liu Haizhong chuckled, covering his cheek, while Lin Chen glared at him. After all, he'd arranged it himself; how could it not be interesting?
"Stop grinning like that. You're the manager, Second Uncle, so you need to be serious about this. I'll go check on them after I wash up!"
Liu Haizhong immediately understood what it meant. After all, many people had been beaten down this time, and as the second uncle, he couldn't laugh!
"Yes, yes, let's be serious, they were all good comrades too. They all fell while protecting supplies..."
Lin Chen patted Liu Haizhong on the shoulder again and said, "Go to the kitchen and make some arrangements. We'll talk about the traitor later."
Watching Lin Chen's retreating figure, Liu Haizhong took a deep breath. Why hadn't he curried favor with the Lin family sooner? He could have saved a few hundred yuan to buy a worthless painting...
In the past two years, Liu Haizhong has come to realize that even if he spent money to buy his way into office, Li Huaide wouldn't be able to protect him. After all, he himself had been removed from his post...
It's safer to be Lin Chen's lackey, even though it's not something I bought. As long as I'm obedient, my position will be secure. I really took a roundabout way a few years ago.
But then again, a few years ago Lin Chen was just the head of the medical department. He didn't show off much, and no one in the hospital expected that in just five years, this young man would become the person in charge of the steel rolling mill.
This was unimaginable at the time; everyone thought Lin Chen would only get to the medical department. No one expected him to be so talented and have such excellent medical skills!
The Lin family, grandfather and grandson, have lived together for over a decade, just ordinary residents of a courtyard house.
No one could have imagined that the young man would become successful after he grew up, especially after marrying Qin Huairu, his success became unstoppable.
"I must keep up with Brother Lin's pace and not fall behind!"
