Chapter 2130 Praising the chicks, denying Yan Bugui
Chapter 2130 Praising the chicks, denying Yan Bugui
Jia Zhangshi was always that headstrong young woman; she went straight for Qi Weiyi as soon as she arrived.
The main problem is that they have to put on an act! Now the women in the courtyard are starting to doubt whether they've gotten something out of it.
Jia Zhangshi believed that since Qi Weiyi had moved back, she had fulfilled her promise to Yi Zhonghai. From now on, it would be a completely different story…
Now, Dwarf Tiger and Second Aunt are completely confused by Jia Zhangshi's jumping around. How can this woman change her attitude so many times a day?
Yesterday morning she wanted to dig up the Qi family's grave, but in the afternoon she said they were just children and should be forgiven. Today she's back to shouting and threatening violence, refusing to let it go. Whose side is she on anyway?
Yi Zhonghai and Qiao Buju, both in the crowd, were inwardly cursing this woman. She was a master of betrayal, turning her back on people without hesitation.
Qi Weiyi, who had originally planned to skip the conference that night on the grounds of difficulty walking, was quickly dragged out by Sha Zhu and Liu Da Leng.
The young man's groin area was still swollen, making his gait quite strange. Now, seeing Qi Weiyi's comical posture, the residents were all laughing so hard they were doubled over, and they were all cursing him for getting what he deserved.
Meanwhile, Qi Weiyi was also inwardly cursing Jia Zhangshi's parents, since Sha Zhu had just said that Jia Zhangshi had sent them to invite him.
"What are you laughing at? Xiao Yi is still a child. He has already agreed to apologize to you, why are you bringing out an injured person?"
Yi Zhonghai, without hesitation, immediately stood up to defend his apprentice...
He wanted to show his apprentice that his master wasn't a coward. Despite the unfavorable situation, he still dared to stand up to the entire courtyard for him, which truly moved Qi Weiyi! In crucial moments, it was still the master who was reliable; his uncle didn't have the guts to stand up for him.
Just as Xu Quede was about to stand up and refute the other party, Lin Chen walked over with Liu Haizhong.
The steward was going to be the grand finale, but just now in the backyard, Lin Chen had privately given Liu Haizhong a lot of instructions...
"Alright, stop arguing! The meeting is now officially starting."
The room quieted down considerably as soon as Lin Chen spoke... and Yi Zhonghai, that old rascal, stopped complaining.
Now everyone's attention is focused on the three stewards.
Lin Chen placed the teacup that symbolized his status as an old man on the octagonal table in the middle of the meeting room.
"Before we discuss the traitor, I want to commend Comrade Ji Cheng. This young man's courage in taking responsibility is commendable; he didn't back down at the crucial moment. Let's all give Comrade Ji Cheng a round of applause..."
As Lin Chen spoke, he immediately looked at Ji Cheng and clapped. Xiang Nanfang and the others immediately responded and clapped along. Although the others didn't know why the old man was praising the chicks right away, they still clapped along.
This left Ji Cheng and his wife somewhat at a loss. Ji Cheng had been sullen these past two days after being scolded by his uncle. If it weren't for Uncle Lin personally presiding over the meeting tonight, the boy wouldn't have planned to attend at all.
After a round of applause, Lin Chen explained again why he had praised Ji Cheng first.
"You might not know this, but this time at the Public Security Bureau, Director Li completely shirked responsibility, claiming it had nothing to do with him. He insisted he was just passing by Dongzhimen and knew nothing about why the two groups were fighting. If Comrade Ji Cheng hadn't stepped forward and gone back with the police, even if everyone had run back then, they would still have been arrested the next day..."
Upon hearing this, everyone finally understood what it meant. It meant that if Ji Cheng hadn't stepped forward this time... Li Huaide would have been doomed, and it wasn't because of Lao Yan's crooked trick that everyone was saved.
This was an opportunity to shine, and Fang Zhuoya gently nudged her man.
Ji Cheng's mood brightened considerably, since he had achieved his goals! Getting scolded by his uncle was inevitable, but at least he wouldn't have to travel all the way to Moscow! A wife, kids, and a warm bed are still the best!
"Thank you, Uncle Lin. It's all I should do. A real man takes responsibility for his actions, and I can't let my personal grudges drag everyone down with me. My promise to add ten chickens to the feast as a reward for everyone is still valid. Thank you all for your help this time."
Lin Chen led the applause again, but now that this explanation had been given, Yan Bugui's credit was completely gone!
Lin Chen wanted to deny Yan Bugui's contribution, otherwise, if they played this game every time they went out, how would the Lin family watch the show?
So don't think you'll escape arrest just because you're covered in filth. That's because Ji Cheng took the blame inside. Let's see if you'll still be fighting over shit and pee next time...
Now that everyone was praising Ji Cheng and his wife, Fang Zhuoya's anger finally subsided a bit. At least she had taught Tong Zhi a lesson this time, and her pride had been saved.
After all, Tong Zhi really humiliated Fang Zhuoya this time, and we're all avenging you two. It's only right that we eat your chicken now…
Lin Chen summarized the battle in just a few words! Ji Cheng failed to keep his quota, and Director Yang, Feng Shigao, and the Lin family were all very satisfied.
Ji Cheng himself was also reluctant to part with his wife and children, and now this has been perfectly resolved.
However, this quota somehow ended up on Qiao Yicheng's shoulders, or more accurately, it ended up in the hands of the Lin family.
After the first part of the meeting concluded, Liu Haizhong glanced at his brother Lin, who was drinking tea nearby, and then stood up. After all, as Lin Chen's second uncle, he had to act according to Lin Chen's wishes…
"Alright! Everyone, quiet down. Next, we'll discuss the persistent betrayals within the courtyard. To put it nicely, they're traitors; to put it bluntly, they're disloyal. I'm just wondering, why would anyone want to be a traitor? What has the courtyard done to wrong you? Tell us, and we can settle this one-on-one! We won't bully you just because we outnumber you..."
As Liu Haizhong spoke, he looked at Yi Zhonghai and the others and continued indignantly.
"From the Su family at the beginning to Jia Zhangshi, Cai Quanwu and Qiangzi, and now Qiao Zuwang, Yi Zhonghai, Qi Weiyi and the like. They really never learn. I've told them countless times. If anyone has any unpleasant matters, we'll resolve them within our compound. I'm just afraid that some people are weaker and can't fight against larger groups. Brother Lin even specially organized a one-on-one tournament to resolve personal issues, but you still want to use outsiders to deal with people from our compound. This is extremely shameful behavior..."
After being berated by Liu Haizhong, no one stood up to refute him. After all, Lin Chen was just drinking tea at the octagonal table, and anyone who jumped out to confront Liu Erpang would be committing suicide.
If a group fight doesn't work, we'll give you a one-on-one duel. If that's still not enough, then there's really nothing else we can do!
“Old Liu is right! As the third uncle of this courtyard, I, Old Yan, have been beaten up a lot over the years, haven’t I? I’ve gone through countless pairs of glasses, but I’ve never thought of colluding with outsiders to deal with the people in the courtyard. We should act according to our conscience. Old Yi and Jia Zhangshi should be the ones criticized the most in this matter. We’re all long-time residents, so don’t always resort to reporting others or using outsiders as intermediaries…”
