Siheyuan: Qin Huairu is a lucky charm for her husband

Chapter 2251 The Real Reason for Starting the Feast

A few years ago, Lin Chen didn't have the power to take over, but things are different now! The steel rolling mill has a branch in the West District. Now, the working class and peasantry lead everything, and everything belongs to the working masses.

Forget about royal palaces and official residences; they're all for living in. Especially for the working class. Our factory's family compound is quite nice now.

Lin Chen couldn't possibly appropriate it for himself, but he could use the steel rolling mill's branch plant. Who gets it then is up to Zhao Xinmei and Niu Shurong. As for cultural relic protection, everything except the imperial city is negotiable. Especially now, when we're struggling to feed ourselves, you're talking to me about old feudal houses?

After having this idea, Lin Chen went straight to Baita Lane to find his silly daughter and Xiao Lingling.

……

Into the night

Lin Chen was still teaching his young apprentice Ding Qiunan advanced medical skills, after all, next month was her and Song Yanzi's wedding day.

Ding Qiunan has long since eaten pork countless times and often watched pigs walk. She's eagerly anticipating joining Lou Xiao'e and the others…

"Brother Lin Chen, this is so unscientific! I saw a book on male anatomy in the library today, written by a leading anthropologist from Moscow."

Lin Chen didn't insist on an explanation; what did it matter if it was scientific or not? His brother's abilities were undeniably real...

"There are always exceptions! Besides, he was talking about normal circumstances, not 100% of men."

Ding Qiunan was just curious and didn't suspect anything too much. After all, she studied Western medicine, and it was only when she saw it that she remembered that her brother Lin Chen's condition was abnormal.

"Then...then you must go easy on me. I don't want to die young..."

Lin Chen whispered mischievously in her ear, "It's not that I held back, but..."

"Get lost! I'll have Yanzi carry it."

While Lin Chen was still whispering sweet nothings to his wife, several figures tiptoed out of the courtyard.

Sha Zhu and his family mostly have children, which is why they leave so quietly.

The women also made sure their men were properly equipped, especially groin protectors.

If it weren't for the potential financial gain, no one would be willing to let their man take such a risk.

Workers nowadays are only given a monthly ration of 25 jin (12.5 kg) of grain, and that's mostly coarse grain with little refined grain.

Women like Li Danu, who don't work, receive even less in rations each month. If they want to improve their meals, they have to sneak off to the pigeon market or the black market to buy food at high prices. You can imagine how tempting it is to sit at a lavish banquet these days.

"Is everyone here?"

Guo Da Piezi sat on Cai Quanwu's tricycle and began to give orders.

Sha Zhu turned around and started counting heads, especially the little monkey, whom he glanced at a few more times: "Everyone's here! Let's go! Cha Men Zhong hasn't come back to report yet, it seems Tong Zhi and the others have no guts to leave."

Guo Da Piezi glanced at the little monkey in the crowd and then waved his hand.

"Let's go! Anyone who dares to block my way, I'll make sure they're dead."

The little monkey thought to himself, "You bunch of idiots. Just because you don't leave Jiudaowanzi doesn't mean others won't dare to mess with you."

You think you can get away with this after beating me? Let me tell you, no way! Do you think all the good things in the world belong to your family? I'm not someone to be bullied.

Not only was Guo Da Piezi secretly gloating, but Fan Jinyou and the others were too. Especially Liao Shaoji, who had already told He Yongqiang and Ouyang Yi that he would take care of the old swindler himself later.

"Uncle Guo! Come on, have a smoke. I'm counting on you guys this time! I'm really short on cash right now, so this meal can't go wrong."

Liao Shaoji started handing out cigarettes to the people who came to help, since he was the one who would pay for all the tickets tonight.

Those who accepted the cigarettes patted their chests and assured the others that they would absolutely protect the supplies. Based on the courtyard's past practices, they had indeed never failed in their mission over the years.

It wasn't because Sha Zhu and his group were particularly skilled or because they were lucky; the main reason was that there were many other people sitting at the table besides them!

Because the Lin family always occupies two tables at every banquet? If the Lin family's daughters-in-law don't get to eat or aren't happy with the meal, would Secretary Lin still hold the banquet? Absolutely not. The banquet is always for the Lin family's daughters-in-law's happiness.

These people will never know this; they're only getting a little something extra thanks to the flowers and plants in the yard. Secretary Lin arranged all this because he was having fun.

"Brother Roast Chicken, don't be so naive. With us Four Heavenly Kings here, there will be absolutely no accidents."

Originally, the courtyard house consisted of four main characters: Da Shazhu, Da Changlian, Da Lengzi, and Da Douchong. However, Yan Jiecheng was always too stingy, so he was excluded, leaving only the Iron Triangle.

Liao Shaoji was already used to these scoundrels' joking tone, so he wasn't angry.

"Good, good, I'm relieved to hear Brother Bean Worm's words."

The little monkey felt a surge of disgust seeing a group of people laughing and joking even as they were about to die.

"This time, I'm going to beat up your four damn bastards and Jia Dongxu."

Since Sha Zhu and the others knew their father would be coming to help soon, they weren't worried at all. They continued joking and laughing together along the way…

Half an hour after Guo Da Piezi and his men left, Liu Haizhong and his group of old men in the courtyard were already prepared. However, all of this was done in secret, for fear of alerting Jia Zhangshi.

This time, the people in the courtyard want to show the little monkey what it means to be one step ahead of the devil.

Chen Junliang from the East Courtyard and Chen Yanshi from the West Courtyard were successively summoned to the He family's door.

"Old Liu, why are you calling everyone together in the middle of the night! Ha... I'm so sleepy!"

Qiao Buwang stretched and yawned as he looked at the dense crowd.

"Keep your voices down! I've received reliable intelligence that someone is trying to intercept our supplies. Everyone, follow me to support Lao Guo! Let's go!"

At this moment, Yi Zhonghai and the others, who were kept in the dark, frowned. Who the hell is this? Could it be Xiao Yi causing trouble again?

Yi Zhonghai is really in a bind right now, so his first thought is to pray that it wasn't his apprentice who did it.

Outside the gate, Yi Zhonghai could no longer contain himself and asked anxiously, "Old Liu, who wants to mess with us? Is it Chamen Zhong who's back?"

Liu Haizhong stopped hiding it from the others and stopped walking.

"This time it's not those bastards from Jiudaowanzi who are keeping a close watch, but those scoundrels from the front gate. Don't hold back, give them a good beating. Let's see if they dare to look down on our courtyard house again..."

Upon hearing that it was someone from Qianmen, Yi Zhonghai immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He had just thought that it was Chamen Zhong returning to report that Jiudaowanzi had taken action!

Now, apart from the four wounded who haven't been called in, everyone else who can run and move has been brought out of the courtyard.

Upon hearing that they were from Qianmen, Zhao Lichun and Zhong Zhengguo immediately perked up.

How many people were there in Second Uncle's group?
