Siheyuan: Qin Huairu is a lucky charm for her husband

Chapter 2317 Without the phoenix tree, the golden phoenix cannot be attracted.

Lin Chen thought, "I've already reminded you this much; if you still don't understand, you deserve to be suppressed..."

Factory Director Yang, being the shrewd old fox he was, immediately thought of shifting the blame. He believed they should also make Old Ma's gang hostile to the Ji family. They couldn't let them reap the benefits without lifting a finger…

However, Feng Shigao and Chen Junliang weren't fools; they wouldn't easily offend the Ji family. After all, they were now waiting for the Yang family and the Ji family to fight to the death...

Feng Shigao even instructed Qi Wei to constantly remind the Jinling faction not to get involved in the affairs of the Yang and Ji families. If necessary, it would be best to add fuel to the fire, ideally making them fight each other to the bitter end.

However, they still didn't quite grasp Lin Chen's meaning. Lin Chen was reminding them that since they all shared the same goal, why not join forces to bring the other down first, and then compete based on their own abilities?

After all, Lin Chen knew everything about Qi Wei's every move.

“Let’s drink, let’s drink. Secretary Wan isn’t going to retire in just three or five days. Let’s figure something out slowly. Right now, I have a tricky matter I need Brother Lin’s help with! Weimin’s health hasn’t improved, and as his uncle, you can’t just stand by and do nothing!”

Lin Chen put down his wine glass and sighed, "Old Yang, I understand what you mean. If you ask me, we should let our nephew move out! I can cure him once, but there's no guarantee he won't make the same mistake again. The waters in the courtyard are deep, and Weimin is too young!"

Lin Chen directly advised Factory Director Yang to withdraw his men, but Li Huaide dared not do it! If Yang Weimin withdrew, there would be no one left to spy on him in the courtyard, and they had finally managed to get the Yang and Ji families at odds. What would it mean if they withdrew?

It's Li Huaide who wants to bring down Ji Yunfeng, not Factory Director Yang.

The Yang family uncle and nephew are now helping Li Huaide, but the work hasn't been done well, so what's the point of you withdrawing them?

"Secretary Lin can't back down! If Weimin withdraws now, wouldn't that mean Old Yang is admitting defeat? Men in Beijing care about face, Old Yang, don't you agree with me?"

With things having escalated to this point, Factory Director Yang wouldn't remove his nephew. If it weren't for Director Xu keeping an eye on things, Factory Director Ma would have already taken his place. Now that the Yang family is on the same page, there's no way to back them up.

“Secretary Lin, I truly appreciate your kindness in helping Weimin this time. If the Yang family withdraws from the courtyard house now, how can I continue working at the steel mill? I can't swallow this insult…”

Although the Ji family won the tournament, it was a Pyrrhic victory… Now, Factory Director Yang is waiting for his nephew to recover so he can seek revenge, but his grandmother, Jia Zhangshi, has been bedridden lately. Otherwise, he would have already found a way to deal with the Ji family…

Lin Chen thought to himself, "I've advised you to evacuate your people time and time again. Now that you're not doing it yourselves, you can't blame me for not reminding you."

"Alright! I'll give Weimin a check-up tomorrow. Young people can't afford to delay this. I can't speak for gynecology, but urology is a piece of cake."

"Thank you so much, Secretary Lin. I'd like to offer you another toast on behalf of my elder brother and sister-in-law."

The three men raised their glasses again and started talking about the new publicity officer, Vika...

The story ends at both ends, on this side of the courtyard.

As soon as Liu Haizhong and his group arrived home, they encountered the smug Yan Bugui at the gate.

Old Yan had already met Vika and even got a jar of pickled cucumbers and a sausage from the young man, which thrilled the old man!

Old Yan hadn't gotten such a good deal in a very long time in the courtyard... This time, the old man was overjoyed.

The courtyard houses these days are all more difficult to manage than the last, so it's basically impossible for Lao Yan to squeeze any money out of them.

He was just giving it a try with Vika, but no one expected the young man to be so generous.

"Everyone, you're finally back! Something big has happened! We have a new resident in our compound! And this time it's no ordinary person, it's an older gentleman from Moscow."

Old Yan wasn't this excited when Sun Shaoan was admitted to the hospital a few days earlier. After all, the young man hadn't offered him any benefits, and he was brought back by Liu Haizhong.

Upon hearing that it was the eldest brother, everyone immediately stopped discussing... especially Yang Laosan.

"Where is Lao Yan? I speak Russian, so I can translate for you. I'm telling you, I speak more Russian than Xu Si Ke."

As Yang Laosan spoke, he walked towards the courtyard, but was stopped by Lao Yan.

"Come on! Everyone knows those few phrases you only know. Besides, Comrade Vika speaks Mandarin more fluently than Pan Guozi, so there's no need for you to translate."

The reason Yan Bugui was able to get a bottle of pickled cucumbers and sausages was mainly because the old guy is good at bragging!

He told Secretary Lin of the Vika Steel Rolling Mill that he was the eldest uncle in the courtyard, while he was the third eldest uncle in the courtyard.

Now the young man couldn't figure out Old Yan's personality and background, so he took out some gifts to curry favor with this cultured man.

There was no way around it; Yan Bugui stared at other people's things as soon as he walked in, and anyone with eyes could tell what he wanted.

The Soviet experts had strict standards for food and drink, far exceeding the level of Yang Laosan, an eighth-grade worker. Not to mention the others in the institute; now that Lao Yan had seen what Vika had brought, it was no wonder he was envious…

At this moment, Liu Haizhong and the other old men frowned slightly and looked towards the west courtyard. After all, the courtyard was still relatively balanced. What did it mean for an elder brother to appear at this time?

These people are all cunning old foxes; Yan Bugui already knew as soon as he got home. And wouldn't Lao Yi, who didn't go to work that day, have already ingratiated himself with them?

"Let's go check it out first! Brother Lin was called out for drinks by Factory Director Yang tonight, and we don't know when he'll be back. Let's go and meet this older brother first."

As he spoke, Old Xu, along with several stewards and the others, headed straight for the west courtyard...

At this point, everyone followed out of curiosity, since it was indeed quite unusual for a foreigner to move into the courtyard.

As the old saying goes, "Without a phoenix tree, you can't attract a golden phoenix!" That's exactly the kind of outstanding people and auspicious place that No. 95 Courtyard is.

All the men in the courtyard squeezed into the west courtyard, which completely baffled Vika.

Good heavens, how can there be so many people? They're handing out two packs of cigarettes at once… No wonder Yuri said that even if he went into the city, he'd find a place where he could protect himself. The men and women in this courtyard combined are more numerous than a reinforced company!

Vika had already met Li Danu and the others, and now she saw Liu Haizhong and his group. She recalled what Yuri had said a few days earlier…

"Comrade Vika, on behalf of all the residents of the courtyard, I welcome you to your new home! We've been hearing your announcements these past few days! We never expected to finally meet you in person today... Hahaha, great! This is wonderful!"

"Yes, yes, I didn't expect you to be so young in person."
