Chapter 2212 Zhao Lichun applies to hold a separate banquet
Upon hearing that Brother Lin was clearly on his side, Chen Junliang immediately stepped forward.
The old man was good at reading the room; he hadn't spoken yet because he was waiting for Lin Chen's reaction. If Lin Chen sided with Ma Dapeng, he would speak up. If he sided with Jia Zhangshi, he planned to remain completely silent.
This guy's main strategy is to avoid offending Secretary Lin...
Chen Junliang had finally managed to become a squad leader, and he really didn't want to be reduced to his original state again.
"Brother Lin is right. If you, Jia Zhangshi, keep making trouble, don't complain if Da Peng tries to take your resources next time. And you, Hou Yongjie, you're not even here and you're just spouting nonsense."
Now that the old man had said so, the little monkey didn't dare to argue anymore. So he gave Qiangzi a wink, and the two of them pulled Jia Zhangshi away...
In recent years, no one has dared to act recklessly against Uncle Lin in the courtyard. Anyone who wants to try should first think about the He family's dinner table. Can you withstand that slap? If you feel you can't, and you still insist on confronting this old man, you'd better prepare a coffin in advance.
Although Lin Chen hadn't directly crippled anyone, the two stone locks in the backyard said it all. Each one weighed two hundred pounds, and an old man carried them around every day. Just imagine how strong he was!
Even if he accidentally breaks you to pieces, he can put you back together. In the end, the old man is fine, but he has to lie in bed for half a year.
After driving away Jia Zhangshi, Ma Dapeng repeatedly thanked his Uncle Lin. This time, he finally had money for medical treatment!
These past few days, the kid has been envious of Grandpa Wang's upright posture, and equally impressed by Uncle Lin's truly miraculous medical skills. It's a bit pricey, but it really works!
Having dealt with these two groups, it's now Zhao Lichun and Zhong Zhengguo's turn.
Lin Chen took the teacup from Xiao Hua and said, "Tell me, what's going on with you guys this time?"
Zhao Lichun then tearfully recounted his grievances...
"Uncle Lin, you have to stand up for me. Zhong Zhengguo is just jealous of me; Comrade Xue Hongmei doesn't like him at all. I can guarantee that everything I'm saying is true..."
Zhong Zhengguo immediately stood up to refute, but was interrupted by Lin Chen.
"Stop, stop, stop! You two are making fun of your mother and now you want me to judge your family affairs? Even an upright official can't settle family disputes. The courtyard is already chaotic enough, you know? How about this, you just call the Xue family's daughter out and ask her directly, then you'll know who she likes! You two are both good enough, are you afraid you won't find a partner? Now get out of here, I'm busy!"
Zhong Zhengguo was secretly pleased because Uncle Lin hadn't scolded him for his underhanded tactics.
Zhao Lichun now needs Uncle Lin's help, so he dares not say no.
"Uncle Lin, please don't be angry. I have something else to say. I don't want to hold the banquet with Zhong Zhengguo anymore! It's not like our Zhao family can't afford to host one, so can I host the next one myself?"
Before Lin Chen could even nod, Zhong Zhengguo retorted, as if to say only the Zhao family is rich and the Zhong family isn't...
"Uncle Lin, I don't want to do it with him either. I want to do it on my own..."
The two young men had been arguing all day, and now they both need Sha Zhu and his friends' support. That's why they're thinking of holding a separate banquet to boost their popularity...
At this moment, Xu Damao and the others who had been watching all looked at their Uncle Lin. It had to be their Uncle Lin! Just as they were about to ignore them, these two were about to throw a banquet. This was their own uncle! The people in the courtyard were going to have a feast.
Lin Chen thought to himself, "This is wonderful! You should have said so earlier! If you had, I would have chatted with you a little longer..."
"That's right! We can't always rely on others. Go talk to Lao Liu and ask him to arrange a time for you. There are plenty of girls in Beijing, don't put all your eggs in one basket."
There are plenty of girls in Beijing, but Zhao Lichun and Zhong Zhengguo don't know many of them. And suitable girls are hard to find!
Lin Chen, who was originally going home, stopped and chatted with these people for another ten yuan, since they were going to hold separate banquets.
Li Dabao and Mao Lv are running the business together because they're really poor. But you two aren't poor at all... Running it separately is more in line with everyone's wishes.
the other side
After returning home, Chen Junliang became increasingly angry.
At this moment, Chen saw the other party sighing and asked what was wrong.
"Did you get angry with Jia Zhangshi again? I'm going to find her now..."
Chen Junliang immediately called out to his wife, "Don't go! There's no point in arguing with Jia Zhangshi now. It was that bastard Hou Yongjie who caused trouble. He even tried to twist the truth. Luckily, Brother Lin didn't listen to him."
Chen had heard from her daughter that her son-in-law was now disliking the little monkey, and she felt that her chance to shine had come!
"Junliang, what are you afraid of, he's just a little brat? You guys had a great time last night, didn't you? If he dares to act cocky again, we'll see what happens. We'll grab a sack, put him in it, and beat him up..."
Since the little monkey was the big fish, the credit for catching the enemy spy couldn't be given to Chen Junliang. Therefore, Lin Chen only wanted to deal with him, not to expose him now.
As Chen spoke, she winked at the other person, and Chen Junliang immediately understood what she meant. That was indeed what he was thinking too…
“I heard he often goes to the small tavern near Qianmen to drink. Let’s make a plan and see if we can bring Fan Jinyou and the others along.”
After the couple came up with the idea, they immediately convened a meeting with their team.
This time, the little monkey became the subject of discussion among the Jinling faction...
Hou Yongjie was a native of Zhengyangmen, and everyone knew that he would often run to the front gate.
This is different from dealing with that bastard, so they need to plan carefully. The opportunity has to be right...
……
after dinner
Zhao Lichun came to find his Uncle Lin again by himself, because now no one but Lin Chen could help him.
The young man kowtowed as soon as he entered, after all, Xue Hongmei was too important to him. As for why he performed such a grand gesture, it was naturally taught to him by his cunning advisor, Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai told Zhao Lichun to be sincere when entering the house, and not to play games. Otherwise, the old man would see through it with his sharp eyes...
"Uncle Lin, you have to help me!"
Lin Chen lifted the young man who was kneeling down.
"Comrade Zhao Lichun, get to the point. What are you doing? Have you considered that even if you recover, there will still be people who don't want to see you pursuing the Xue family's daughter, and they will still try to sabotage you in various ways? That's why I said there are plenty of girls in Beijing, so you two shouldn't keep focusing on just one."
The young man wasn't thinking that far ahead; he just wanted to quickly explain to the other party that he was still a perfectly fine young man and that there was nothing wrong with him. As for Zhong Zhengguo, he'd deal with him slowly...
"Uncle Lin, I understand what you mean. Zhong Zhengguo's uncle works in the naval compound. My relatives are all away from Beijing. Anyway, I won't back down on this. I fell in love with Xue Hongmei when I was a freshman in college, and Zhong Zhengguo is just jealous!"
