Chapter 767 High fives as an oath
After Lin Chen made a gesture to keep quiet again, Ma Suqin hurriedly closed the door.
Watching Lin Chen's actions, the little girl smiled. Her landlord really had a little secret...
"Don't tell anyone! People in our courtyard don't know that I have a small courtyard outside..."
Ma Suqin shrank her head mischievously and nodded continuously. She had learned today that the people in the Siheyuan were tough... and none of them were good people.
"Director Lin, if you have such a nice yard, why don't you live there by yourself? Why are you squeezing in with those people..."
Lin Chen looked around and sighed: "Let's go back to the house. I'm a little thirsty after drinking... Go get me a glass of water."
Ma Suqin was so excited that she forgot to invite Lin Chen back to the house for tea.
"Hey, please come in... I've taken great care of my room! Take a look..."
So the two of them walked into the main room and waited for Ma Suqin to pour the hot water.
Lin Chen took a few sips and sighed...
"The courtyard is my grandfather's ancestral property. If I move out, the only house left by my grandfather will be occupied by those people. You can see what kind of people they are..."
Lin Chen dispelled the little girl's suspicion with just a few words.
Of course Ma Suqin saw today's battle, and this was the first time she realized how powerful the people of Sijiu City were.
"Oh, no wonder you pretended not to know me. So that's how it is!"
Lin Chen nodded slightly
"I heard that you were a worker at the steel mill, and I rented it to you at a low price because I thought you were an honest girl. I still say that rent is not important, what's important is having a reliable person to help me guard the yard. How about this, I will waive the rent before the Spring Festival, and you can use the money you save to buy two sets of cotton clothes. The temperature will drop again next month... Look at how thin you are wearing."
When Ma Suqin heard that Lin Chen was going to waive her rent for three months, she immediately didn't know how to thank him...
Three months' rent can really save you enough to buy yourself a set of cotton clothes.
"Thank you, Director Lin. I want to ask you for one more favor. I will go back to Jinling to pick up my mother next week. She was blinded by poison gas more than ten years ago. Can you help take a look at her? I beg you!"
Lin Chen thought that it was not difficult at all, and the more difficult it was, the better.
Xiao Yufang had already told Lin Chen what she had found out, and it was Lin Chen who arranged for Ma Suqin to sit at the table in the courtyard this time.
Lin Chen just wanted to show it to Bai Ling, so that she wouldn't accuse him of kidnapping the girl without telling anyone.
"No problem, go get it! Feel free to live here... wait until you get a house."
At this moment, Ma Suqin looked at Lin Chen with a burning gaze. The little girl didn't know why she couldn't help wanting to look at him more even though she had seen Lin Chen's wife today...
Now Ma Suqin is thinking about going to Director Wang to withdraw her housing application as soon as she gets to work tomorrow.
Now that I finally got to know Lin Chen, if I got the house I was allocated, wouldn't I have to move out? How could I see him again in that case?
The girl made up her mind that she would not leave even if the rent was increased next year. At least she could see him once a month when she paid the rent...
Ma Suqin sat opposite Lin Chen, and the two chatted for the whole afternoon.
The little girl told him everything she knew, and she explained everything that Lin Chen asked and didn't ask.
During this period, Lin Chen increased his charm on Ma Suqin by five points.
Ma Suqin, a young girl in love, was in a good mood all day...
Eighteen is the best age for a girl, and Ma Suqin feels that her life has hope again.
This time, coming to Sijiu City not only got rid of the forced marriage by the Xu family, but also had the opportunity to cure my mother's eyes. God really began to favor me!
"Comrade Ma Suqin, let's make a deal. I will help you treat your mother's eyes... and you will help take care of this small yard."
Lin Chen stretched out his hand as he spoke, and Ma Suqin lowered her head and smiled while also stretching out her small hand.
"Okay, Director Lin, let's high-five and pledge our all. I...I will definitely take good care of the yard for you."
It was their first physical contact, and the girl was a little shy. Mainly because the other person was so handsome...
……
Evening
Siheyuan Yan Family
Yang Laosan came over with Nan Yi and Cui Dake.
Yan Bugui, who was drunk at noon, just sobered up...
The three men entered the room and before they spoke, Yan Bugui, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, chuckled.
"Nan Yi, Third Master did a good job this time, didn't he? You said you wanted to stop Liu Haizhong, but I had to work very hard to get him drunk. Third Master risked his life to deal with him..."
When Nan Yi and the other two heard this, they almost cursed... Is that fucking human language?
We fought hard and you drank hard... and you even wanted to take credit for it. Next time we drink and eat... you go and fight with Shazhu and the others.
"Uncle, can you put on your glasses first? Can you look at us first before we talk? You've caused us so much trouble today!"
Yan Bugui had just woken up and had not had time to put on his glasses. How could he know that the three guys were seriously injured.
When Yan Bugui touched the glasses and put them on, he was stunned. The three guys in front of him all had bruised noses and swollen eyes and looked miserable...
Yan Bugui knew that it was Xu Wude and his men who did it, but what did it have to do with him? His son and daughter-in-law had both come out to help, it wasn't like the Yan family didn't help.
"This...you...what's going on with you?"
The three of them got angry when they saw Yan Bugui pretending to be stupid. If it weren't for the third aunt bringing her two sons to help... Nan Yi would have insisted on returning his pack of Daqianmen cigarettes to him.
"Don't mention it! You are entangled with Liu Haizhong, but what about the Xu family and Sha Zhu?"
Yan Bugui heard Xu Wude complaining about it at noon...but Yan Bugui couldn't tell the three of them.
After two minutes of silence, Yan Bugui had an idea. Aren't you afraid of the Ma family? Then push the blame onto Ma Lan...
"I remember now! It must be Ma Lan who instigated Sha Zhu and Da Chang Lian. These two bastards have always been following Ma Lan. They even helped Ma Lan beat Jia Zhang before..."
Yan Bugui analyzed the matter again to Yang Laosan and the others.
Yang Lao San stamped his feet in anger. No wonder the long-faced man dared to challenge him. It turned out that he was bewitched by the black whirlwind!
"Oh my god, what kind of people are they... I'm impressed by this courtyard."
Nan Yi smiled disdainfully: "Uncle Yang, you will understand if you look at their wives! It's normal for Sha Zhu and the others to like Ma Lan..."
Cui Dake was dumbfounded now. Even if he wanted to retaliate... he couldn't involve Ma Lan, otherwise what would he do if Long Hu Bao came with a butcher knife again?
"What Third Uncle said makes sense. No wonder Ma Lan didn't intervene at the time. I thought she didn't care about her son, but it turns out she was the one who ordered the two lickers to do it. So how do you think we should deal with them?"
When Yan Bugui heard that the three guys wanted to take revenge again, he immediately felt overwhelmed. Bringing up Ma Lan now would not scare them at all!
Please don't drag my Yan family into your revenge, okay? I still want to live a peaceful life for a few days...
